blue bird song

Chapter 46
My child, I said, why do you look so familiar? How dare I hug you the day you were born!

Qi Zhen laughed foolishly.

Yingniang looked at him inexplicably, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Qi Zhen pulled Yingniang to sit, and told her excitedly, "Didn't Qingning want a deer? I went to catch a deer for her, but was scared away by a little boy..." [-] Ten, talked about the experience of meeting a girl.

Yingniang grabbed his hand and eagerly asked the girl's appearance, "Brother, what does she look like? Is it clear and bright apricot eyes? Is it a cute little nose? Is it petal-like lips, pink and pink?" What? Brother, Niu Niu has beautiful eyebrows, there is no need to trim or thrush her eyebrows, the eyebrows are as distant as mountains!"

Qi Zhen thought about it the same way, and suddenly realized, "Yingniang, I said, why did I feel kind to the child at that time, how dare she resemble the young lady!"

Qingque was born to Qi Yu, and the two were quite similar in appearance.

Yingniang was startled, covered her face and began to cry bitterly.Her shoulders trembled, and big tears kept streaming from between her fingers.Qi Zhen panicked, "Yingniang, it's a good thing that the child has disappeared. Why are you crying? Stop crying. Brother, go out immediately, find and bring the child back."

Yingniang cried and shook her head, "Her master and mother won't agree. Brother, her master and mother won't even tell Miss about Niuniu's whereabouts!"

Apart from Niuniu's parents, the only one in this world who knows about Niuniu's whereabouts is Yang Ge.There is no need to mention the government of Ningguo and the government of the United Kingdom, Niuniu's teachers and mothers are not taken seriously at all.Even the Qi family and Wang family ignored it.

Qi Zhen's face darkened, "Looking at Niu Niu's appearance, her parents and mother must love her very much and treat her as her own. Yingniang, they have resentment in their hearts, and it's their place to avoid it. It's only the Deng family who are to blame. Too ruthless, too poisonous!"

Yingniang burst into tears, "Blame me, blame me! If I follow Niu Niu, I will try my best to protect Niu Niu, and I can't let those people get their way..."

Qi Zhen slowly took her into his arms, and said with difficulty: "It's not your fault, it's me. I fostered her in Eryou's home, and then let Eryou move to Yangji. I always thought that with Yang Ge always around, she would definitely be married. Nothing will be lost."

Who would have guessed what happened next.When Yingniang left Niuniu, Niuniu was still in Yangji, looked after by Nanny Lin and taught by Elder Yang Ge, happy like a bird.

Yingniang cried so much that Qi Zhen hugged and coaxed her distressedly.Yingniang, kind-hearted Yingniang, crying-loving Yingniang, the first time I saw you, you were crying in front of the general's coffin.

When Qingfeng and Qingning came back after watching the golden pheasant, Yingniang had already shed tears.Qing Ning opened her arms, and said in a milky voice, "Mother, hug me." Qingfeng was careful, and asked strangely, "Mother, why are your eyes red and swollen?" Qing Ning also poked his head to look carefully, Yingniang forced a smile and said, "The sand is blinding my eyes."

After coaxing the two children to sleep at night, Yingniang and Qi Zhen and his wife whispered for a long time before Fang fell asleep.

The next day, the two left the child at the General Military Mansion, and led a group of cavalry into the mountain. "Yingniang, it's here that I'm holding a rope to catch a sika deer." Qi Zhen pointed out one by one, "Niuniu killed the tiger in front of the slope ahead."

A girl's family, young enough to kill even a tiger.Niuniu, how much pain did you suffer to practice such martial arts?Yingniang burst into tears.

Qi Zhen took her to the front of the slope, and walked slowly towards the open space, "I dragged the tiger, and Niuniu walked beside her, chatting and chatting, she looked so cute."

Yingniang wandered among the mountains and forests, thinking of the cute little green sparrow and her hard-working martial arts, she felt desolate.Niuniu, it's all Yingniang's fault, Yingniang shouldn't have left you.

Qi Zhen stayed with Yingniang all the time.

When she came to a clear stream, Yingniang stopped.There is also a similar stream in Yangji, which is also so clear.Niu Niu's beautiful apricot eyes are more crystal clear and clearer than the stream water.

On the opposite side of the creek came a girl wearing a green cloth jacket and blue cloth pants.She was naturally beautiful, even though she was wearing coarse clothes, she couldn't hide her delicate figure.

Both Qi Zhen and Ying Niang will definitely keep an eye on her.

She looked curiously at the other side of the creek for a while, and cheered, "Yingniang, what a Yingniang!" She jumped up lightly, crossed the stream like a bird, and threw herself on Yingniang, shouting happily , "My good lady, you miss me so much!"

Yingniang hugged her, tears streaming down her face, "Miss, little Qingque, good girl!"

Qi Zhen looked at Yingniang and Qingque who were hugging and crying and laughing together, and he was also very moved.

Yingniang suddenly remembered something, she let go of Qing Que, supported her shoulders, and looked up and down eagerly.Qingque giggled, and spun around a few times proudly, "Good lady, I've grown up, don't I look good?"

"It's beautiful, it's beautiful!" Yingniang nodded hurriedly, "My little Qingque is the prettiest little girl!"

The 13-year-old Qingque is in the prime of her life, with a slender and graceful figure and a picturesque face. She looks like a magnolia budding in the spring breeze in March, fresh and pleasing to the eye, and her light can be seen.

Qingque laughed happily.

Qi Zhen walked up to Yingniang with a smile, and Yingniang's face was rosy, and she mumbled, "Niuniu, this is the benefactor I'm looking for. He saved you and me back then. He, he is... "

"Father Ying!" Qing Que called out crisply: "Good mother Ying, I knew he was Father Ying when I saw you two!"

Yesterday he was called "General Qi", but today he is called "Daddy Ying".Qi Zhen looked at the beaming girl in front of him, and felt amused.

British dad?Yingniang was startled, and said angrily, "Niu Niu is still so naughty!" Father Ying, Niu Niu, it's thanks to you for thinking this out.

"Good Yingniang, where is my father and my mother?" Qing Que took Yingniang's hand and asked courteously, "Since you left Yangji, I have never seen my father, my mother and Qingmiao Qingshu again, I want to kill them !"

When Qingque arrived in the capital, Yingniang and Mo Er's family had already left the capital and went to Shuozhou to look for Qi Zhen.Therefore, I have not seen my adoptive parents.

"Your father and mother are now living in a farm in Daxing, very stable." Yingniang told her hastily, "Your father and mother don't farm the land now, and live on rent collection. The young seedlings and green trees are all going to school, by the way , you have added a little brother named Qinglin."

"It's great to have more younger brothers." Qing Que looked at Yingniang and Qi Zhen with a smile, "Then, what about Father Ying and Yingniang, did you add a younger brother to me?"

Yingniang blushed, and Qi Zhen smiled and said, "Yes. There is a younger brother named Qingfeng who is five years old this year, and a younger sister named Qingning who is three years old this year."

Qing Que smiled at Mimi, "That's great!" Counting on her fingers, "My mother has little Ayang and little Ahui, my father and mother have green seedlings, green trees, and green forests, and Ying's father and mother have Qingfeng, Qingfeng, etc. Ning, I have Lin Xiaotian as my master and mother. I have five younger brothers and three younger sisters!"

"Lin Xiaotian is three years old this year. He is extremely naughty! My teacher's wife can't look at him alone, and I can't look at him even if she asks me to help from time to time. He has short legs, but he runs very fast. He doesn't know where he is going if he can't see at a glance. gone."

Qi Zhen and Yingniang listened to her babbling with gentle eyebrows, and felt warm in their hearts.

There was a clear howling sound in the distance, wave after wave, which seemed to reprimand.Qing Que smiled mischievously, "Master, Master, and Mother are very strict with me, and after only coming out to play for a while, they urged me to go back!"

Arming Yingniang affectionately with one arm and Qi Zhen with the other, "How about sitting in the humble house for a while?" Yingniang was overjoyed, "Okay, okay." Of course Qi Zhen readily agreed.

Bringing a team of cavalry, the three went to Hongfeng Ridge on the hillside.Here are all houses made of bluestone, which are very strong. About twenty or thirty families live here, forming a small village.

Qing Que took Yingniang and Qi Zhen to a courtyard on the east side, "Master, Master, Lin Xiaotian, I'm back!" Qing Que shouted cheerfully.

The door of the house opened, and a little boy about three years old, wearing a rough blue cloth coat like Qingque, ran out.He must look like a mother, and the pair of narrow and charming red phoenix eyes on his snow-white face are simply mesmerizing.

I saw him standing in the open space in front of the house, with his hands on his hips, accusing loudly, "Sister, you're playful again!" The words paused.

Qing Que stroked his sleeves, smiled maliciously, and walked towards him slowly, "Lin Xiaotian, good brother, don't run away!".Lin Xiaotian rolled his eyes, turned around and ran into the house, "Sister, you're going to play tricks again!"

A man and a woman walked out of the room. The man was handsome and elegant, and the woman was beautiful.The man leaned over and hugged Lin Xiaotian, and the woman looked at Qing Que angrily, "Naughty girl, run around again!"

Qingque sticks out her tongue, pulls up Yingniang with one hand, and Qi Zhen with the other, and happily says: "Master, Master, Lin Xiaotian, this is Yingniang who raised me since I was a child, and Yingdi who saved me. "

Teacher, teacher and mother and father and mother Ying greeted politely and allowed them to sit in the room.After saying a few words, Master gently ordered, "Qing Que, take my younger brother out to play." Qing Que agreed with a smile, picked up Lin Xiaotian, and went out to play.

After Qing Que went out, the master's face became serious, "May I ask what the two of you are here for? Please tell me frankly." The teacher's wife's eyes also became sharper, "The child has turned around before the gate of hell, and he picked it up with great difficulty. Come back to my life. If anyone wants to play her tricks again, don't be afraid that we will be merciless!"

Yingniang burst into tears when she heard the words "Turn around before the gate of hell".Qi Zhengong cupped his hands and said sincerely: "Since the day Niuniu was born, I saw her for the first time in the Qi family's old house, and I wanted to keep her and a little of General Qi's blood. There is no other request. For Niu Niu, we only have love and love, and we have no other intentions."

Knowing that Yingniang and Qi Zhen are the ones who have treated Qingque kindly and guarded Qingque since the day she was born, the teacher, father and mother looked pale, "The child has suffered too much, and I feel sorry for her. Now you look at her well, don't you?" ? When he was rescued, he was just a little blood man, dying."

"The external injuries are nothing, but the child also suffered internal injuries, which took a lot of energy. In the past few years, we took her to search for famous doctors, and we went all the way to this place. Only then did Niuniu heal her internal injuries."

Qi Zhen's face was livid, "Niuniu's internal injury, who is it thanks to?" The master smiled bitterly and said, "When I rescued the child, I was only busy healing the child. How can I care about other things? Wait until Niuniu's injury is slightly better." One point, we tried to ask about that night, and Niu Niu looked very painful, as if she didn’t want to think about it.” The wife frowned slightly, “You must not force the child to ask! That past must be unbearable, so don’t let the child feel sad.”

Yingniang nodded her head in tears, Qi Zhen thought for a moment, but had no objection.

It is anyone's guess who harmed Niuniu.I can guess it, but can't Duke Ning and Deng Qi guess it?But they did nothing.The matter involved the secrets of the Deng family's house, and they forbear it and let outsiders do it.

Shen Fu served as the chief soldier of the Xuanfu, and had a close personal relationship with Wan Shoufu. It is said that even Concubine Wan Gui in the palace appreciated him very much.To be appreciated by Concubine Wan Gui is to win the favor of the emperor Lao Tzu.Shen Fu, the official position is stable.

This account can only be settled slowly.

Qi Zhen asked his father and mother's family to live in the General Military Mansion, "Be kinder to each other, and take care of each other." Master smiled, "Qing Que has always been looking forward to serving as a soldier and fighting. The sky is haunting you." Mistress shook her head, "No, no! I just saved a life, and I want to use a knife and a gun again, my heart aches!"

Yingniang recalled the past, and said Qingque's bold words back then, "Niuniu said, she wants to rebuild the three thousand cavalry and rebuild the Qi family army!"

Mistress gave her a white look, "I knew it was not a good thing for you to come! You want to persuade me to let the blue bird go to the battlefield, don't you? Don't even think about it! A little girl like a flower, fighting like a man in armor, just for the honor of your Qi family? Little Jade Bird doesn't owe your Qi family anything, so don't think about her."

The master said gently: "If Qingque doesn't want to do something, we will never force her. If there is something she wants to do wholeheartedly, we shouldn't stop her. Junior sister, a child has the ambition of a child."

Mistress is still reluctant.

However, if Qi Zhen occasionally took Qingque to play in the General Military Mansion, his wife would still be willing.A couple who have been guarding Qingque since the day she was born, the teacher has no reason to refuse.

Qing Que excitedly rode on the horse and followed Qi Zhen to patrol around.Qingque is naturally interested in armor, swords and guns, war drums, battle flags, neat military appearances, and changing formations.

Qi Zhen took her to the Helankou Great Wall, "Qingque, Ningxia Township is surrounded by the Great Wall on three sides in the east, west and north, with mountains on its back and rivers on its sides. It is fortified in all directions, and it is called 'the shield of Guanzhong, and the throat above the rivers and dragons'." .”

This is a precious land, "China has it to resist foreign barbarians; foreign barbarians cut it enough to resist China."The majestic Helan Mountain, the surging Yellow River, and the continuous Great Wall jointly resisted the Mongolian army going south.

"Qingque, what is the Great Wall?" Qi Zhen asked with a smile.

"This is not a problem for me. I know the past and the present." Qing Que said proudly, "Tan Daoji, a famous general in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, was imprisoned by Song Wendi Liu Yilong on charges of rebellion. Tan Daoji yelled, 'You are destroying the Great Wall of Ru!'"

"Like you, in the face of tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry, you have to defend Gubeikou with only more than 100 people. This is the real Great Wall!"

"The beacon towers, the city walls, and the dangers of Helan Mountain alone can't stop the barbarians from going south. A disciplined army and brave soldiers are the real Great Wall!"

In the girl's beautiful eyes, there was a bright light shining like a star.

She was in her cardamom years, with a pure and beautiful face, and an unparalleled figure.A girl of the same age as her should be quietly working as a maid in the peaceful back house, or reciting poems and painting elegantly?But she stood on the majestic and precipitous ancient Great Wall of Ningxia, facing the majestic and majestic Helan Mountain with overlapping peaks, and she was ambitious to defend her country and resist the Mongolian cavalry going south.

Qi Zhen's heart was agitated, and he admired sincerely, "Qingque, you are worthy of being the descendant of General Qi!"

Although you are young, Niuniu, you are open-minded and ambitious. You are indeed the granddaughter of General Qi Baoshan.

Qing Que smiled slyly, "The descendant of General Qi? Isn't there General Qi in front of me?" Qi Zhen thought for a while, then understood what she meant, but shook his head with a wry smile, "Niu Niu, your mistress won't agree .”

"There used to be a General Qi, and there is another General Qi in front of me." Qingque didn't give up, and still had a lively smile on her face, "I don't think it's enough! Father Ying, if there is another General Qi Qingque, Do you think it's okay?"

She smiled and looked at Qi Zhen, waiting for his reply.

Qi Zhen's heart became hot, and he said in a low voice: "Father Ying is what you wish for. Niuniu, I saw you in the Qi family's old house the day you were born. At that time, your little face was not as big as my slap, and it was very delicate. , when Father Ying was holding you, he was always careful."

"You can inherit the will of General Dragon and Tiger, rebuild the Qi family army, expel the Tartars, and protect the country and the people. It is the luck of the heaven and the people. But Niuniu, you will suffer a lot and suffer a lot. Father Ying can't bear it."

Your father is the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, and your mother is Mrs. Yang Wuhou.With such parents and such a background, you should have been the most noble and elegant little girl in the capital, admiring flowers and composing poems in spring, stepping on the snow to find plums in winter, rich, peaceful and leisurely.

Qing Que turned her eyes to the mountains, and her expression was dignified not commensurate with her age, "Father Ying, there was a cold autumn night, and I almost died."

"I was lying on the cold ground, my internal organs were wounded, and I felt so painful that I wanted to die. The room was empty and there was no light. The only place with light was a barred window."

"I looked up at the bars and felt that it was so far away. The only place with light was out of reach for me. My eyelids were about to close, and I wanted to fall asleep and sleep forever."

Her voice was very calm, but Qi Zhen's hairs stood on end.

"I closed my eyes in a daze, but I heard the man's mournful shouts and the thunderous fighting sound in my ears, which made me unable to be quiet. The man had suffered several wounds and was riddled with scars. Fear! He was riding a black war horse. The horse had exhausted all its power and fell to the ground with a mournful hiss..."
