Phoenix Shadow Coming From the Sky: Seven, Yun Who’s Thinking 8

Feng Duying and his party ran without stopping for a moment, and arrived in Peicheng in less than half an hour.

Xu Huai was worried that Feng Duying would go straight to the imperial capital, so he said, "General, the soldiers who came to greet you must be very tired after traveling day and night, why don't you rest in Peicheng for a day or two before heading back home How about the imperial capital?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier said loudly to Feng Duying: "General, we are not tired of waiting for brothers. Your Majesty and Lord Dazai are waiting for the general to go back."

Xu Huai was secretly anxious after hearing this, thinking that a great **** finally came to a small place in Peicheng, how could he send it away so easily, and just as he was about to speak, Feng Duying said, "Today I will rest in Peicheng, Let's go on the road tomorrow." As she spoke, she glanced sideways at Du Kang beside her, although no expression could be seen on that handsome and indifferent face, the haggard and exhausted brows could not be concealed. Thinking that she was injured and disappeared these days, he must have been searching day and night without rest, and he must have rushed here day and night when he got the news of her.

Xu Huai was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "The lower official's mansion has already prepared a residence for the general and you, please come with the lower official."

Feng Duying didn't refuse, and led everyone to Xu Huai's residence. The entire Xu Mansion had been prepared long ago, all the houses were vacated, and many beds were prepared, just waiting for them to live there. After some settlement, Feng Duying ordered Du Kang and the soldiers to rest, and she sat alone in the room to meditate and adjust her breath.

Xu Huai was also very well-behaved, and he never came to disturb him all day long, leaving only a few servants waiting for orders, quietly letting the soldiers of Feng Yingqi sleep full for the day. At dusk, Xu Huaicai and his wife came over and set up a sumptuous banquet. Feng Duying didn't hold back his subordinates, and the soldiers opened their arms to drink freely. After the meal, the host and guest enjoyed themselves.

Mrs. Xu has been standing behind Feng Duying to wait, very thoughtful and meticulous. Halfway through, Feng Duying left the table first after eating, and she followed quietly. When we arrived at the promenade in the garden, Feng Duying saw that it was quiet and cool here, so he sat down leaning against the railing, "Mrs. Xu, I don't need to follow you, go and eat by yourself."

Madam Xu shook her head, and softly ordered the accompanying maidservants to bring hot tea, and served it to Feng Duying herself.

Feng Duying took the tea and looked up at the woman in front of her carefully. He is about in his early thirties, fair and round, with beautiful eyebrows and almond eyes, and has a dignified and dignified demeanor. Thinking to himself, the servants in the Yamen of Xuhuai Mansion are not the same, but the wife he married is not bad. And Mrs. Xu's service is so thoughtful, it is nothing more than thinking that she, a great general, can promote her husband and son-in-law. She is very clear about what they think, think and do. If they were young, she would be disgusted. But they can deal with it calmly, not to mention that although the Xu couple acted to please, they were not flattering enough to make people annoying.

Madam Xu was also thinking secretly while watching Feng Duying quietly sipping tea. Ever since Feng Duying appeared in Peicheng, Xu Huai told his wife that this was an opportunity to make a fortune, but he also saw that in front of General Fengying, whether it was flattery or bribery, not only would it not work. , I'm afraid it will backfire, so the general's hospitality can be warm and thoughtful but not excessively luxurious. The only thing that can be done is to make her have a deep impression on Peicheng, so that she will remember Peicheng and Xu Huai, so that she can remember Xu Huai in the future. There is a possibility of raising some concerns. Therefore, seeing that Feng Duying had finished drinking her tea, she hurriedly took the empty cup and said, "Is the general leaving tomorrow? Peicheng finally got the general here, and I wanted to lead the general around. Come to show the friendship of the landlord, secondly let the general see the customs of Peicheng, and thirdly, I can get closer to the general even as a concubine." Speaking of the last sentence, I thought of the woman in front of me who is commanding all armies in troubled times , the bottom of my heart spontaneously gave birth to admiration, "As a woman, I admire people like generals very much, but I hope I can have more opportunities to learn a thing or two."

"Oh." Feng Duying just smiled.

Madam Xu saw that she didn't show boredom, so she tried again: "When will the general leave tomorrow? If it's in the afternoon, you can go to the Qu's Garden."

Feng Duying shifted his gaze to Madam Xu after hearing the words. This was the second time she had mentioned the "Qujia Garden", so she said, "What's so interesting about this Qujia Garden?"

Seeing her question, Mrs. Xu was excited, and said: "The Qu family garden is famous for its flowers. Now the chrysanthemums are blooming just right. It's the time to enjoy chrysanthemums and wine."

"Oh." Feng Duying replied noncommittally.

Madam Xu went on to say: "People in this city love to go to Qu's Garden firstly because of the four seasons flowers in the garden, and secondly because of Miss Qushang's harp."

Hearing this, Feng Duying suddenly raised his head to look at Mrs. Xu, his eyes were like swords, bright and sharp, and Mrs. Xu's heart jumped when he looked at him, thinking that he had said something wrong just now.

"Who did you just talk about?" Feng Duying asked her.

"Ms. Qu Shang from the Qu family." Mrs. Xu was a little apprehensive, not knowing why the expression of the general who was originally indifferent suddenly changed.

"Music cup?" Feng Duying's pupils contracted, her voice trembling, "She...she plays the harp?"

Madam Xu nodded, seeing Feng Duying's expression changed drastically, and she didn't know what was wrong, so she could only answer truthfully: "Miss Qu's harp is unique in Peicheng, and everyone in this city knows no one." I don't know."

Mrs. Deterred, dare not make a sound.

Feng Duying, who turned his back on his back, clenched his fists secretly, his mind was in chaos.

All of her recent thoughts involve Fengji, and the people, things, and things related to it are extremely sensitive. At this moment, she just heard the word "Quzhang" from Mrs. Xu's mouth and immediately thought of "Quzhang" Garden", I only heard that the lady of the Naqu family was good at playing konghou, so I thought of the lady in Fujian who was proficient in musical instruments, especially konghou. Even though I warned myself that it was just the same name, and I just knew how to play the harp, it should have nothing to do with that person. After all, that person had been dead for many years, and it was my fourth brother who told me about it. Moreover, when they attacked Minzhou, the Weiteng couple He also died under the random arrows... But he just couldn't stop his thoughts from surging.

After being silent for a long time, she calmed down her confusion and said calmly: "Mrs. Xu, tell me about the Qu Family Garden and the girl Qu Shang."

Madam Xu, who was in a state of panic, heard the words, and hurriedly explained the song family in detail.

It turns out that the Qu family moved here five years ago, and the family has a lot of money. When they came to Peicheng, they sold an old house and a large piece of land in the city, and renovated the old house. This is today's Qu Mansion. He opened rice shops, silk shops, **** shops, restaurants, etc. in the city, and is now the richest man in Peicheng. The population of the Qu family is simple, just the husband and wife and one sister. The master and wife of the Qu family are both in their fifties. Although they have no children, the couple are very affectionate.

The wife of the Qu family is fond of growing flowers and plants, so the master of the Qu family built another garden on the side of the Qu mansion for his wife to grow flowers and plants. Mrs. Qu is very talented, she can grow all kinds of flowers, so that the flowers in the garden of the Qu family are gorgeous, and there are four seasons. People who have seen it are all amazed, so some literati go there admiringly. Among them, she is beautiful and talented, and she is quite a gentleman.

Master Qu's family was a little tired of receiving visitors from all over the world, so he simply opened the gate of the garden, allowing the people in the city to come in and out freely to watch, and that Miss Qushang also went to the garden to meet with those literati when she was interested. Talk about scriptures and Taoism, or play a harp to pay everyone. After a long time, this Qu's garden became famous in Peicheng, not only the locals love to go there, but some passing guests also admire it.

"Oh?" After hearing this, Feng Duying pondered for a moment and said, "Then the Japanese general will go and see it tomorrow."

Madam Xu was overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurriedly said: "I will go and tell the master right now, let the Naqu family prepare."

"No need." Feng Duying stopped her, "Tomorrow the Japanese general will bring Du Kang there, just treat it as an ordinary tourist, don't disturb anyone."

Madam Xu naturally agreed.

So after the wine and banquet that day, Feng Duying ordered his subordinates to rest in Peicheng tomorrow and set off the day after tomorrow.

All the subordinates have always respected her like a god, so they will not have any objections.

Everyone had a rest that night.

In the middle of the night, Feng Duying woke up from a sleep, and saw the moonlight outside the window, and the surroundings were quiet, and when he was about to turn over and go back to sleep, he smelled a breath outside the house, which was soft and long, it was someone with deep inner strength can only be issued. Her heart moved, she got up and got out of bed, pushed open the door, and saw Du Kang standing alone in the courtyard, when she saw her, she didn't say a word, just stood silently.

"Why don't you go to sleep?" Feng Duying stepped out of the room.

After a while, I heard Du Kang's low voice, "Don't dare to sleep."

After hearing the answer, Feng Duying looked at the people standing quietly in the courtyard, sighed softly, then walked to the courtyard, and sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard.

Du Kang still stood still.

Feng Duying raised his head, looked at the bright moon in the night sky, and said after a while: "Don't worry, I won't disappear suddenly, from now on I will take you with me wherever I go, even to death. "

As soon as her words fell, Du Kang's straight body suddenly relaxed, as if relieved.

Feng Duying can naturally feel his reaction, and can't help but smile slightly, saying: "If he can see you and me at this moment, he will be pleased."

Du Kang was silent, just turned around and faced her.

"Today you and I will finally fulfill his wish, and we will live together, so he must rest assured." Feng Duying raised his head and said softly, as if speaking to the bright moon in the sky.

Du Kang remained silent.

Feng Duying naturally didn't need his answer, the two of them sat and stood, naturally and peacefully, as if it had been like this since ancient times.

"Go to sleep, and accompany me to Qu's Garden tomorrow."

"Yes."

After Du Kang retreated, Feng Duying still sat quietly in the courtyard, looking up at the moon, his mind was far away.
