"Brother Han, drink water!" Ye Qinglian quickly walked to Han Qing's side and handed over a cowhide water bag that had just been opened.
Wang Wu, Liu Hong, Zhang Fan and others turned their heads and quietly glanced in the direction of Dou Rong, only to find that the latter had no reaction at all. Then they looked at each other again and retreated towards Dou Rong with sly smiles on their faces.
far away.
The femininity of one's own inspection team is something that outsiders cannot envy.
When he was driven out of Ding'an County by County Magistrate Zhang and Master Zhou, when he was at the end of his rope, there was a beautiful girl like Dou Rong who shared weal and woe.
Now that the inspector has given up his official position again, his former rival, the Saint Ye Qinglian of the Red Lotus Sect, is with him in life and death.
"I'm sorry, Brother Han, it was me who dragged you down and made it impossible for you to go home." Seeing the three of them far away, Ye Qinglian suddenly stopped smiling and said to Han Qing seriously.
"What are you talking about? I didn't leave Bianliang because I was afraid of the old witch's revenge." Han Qing guessed why Ye Qinglian was apologizing without having to think about it. She immediately smiled and shook her head gently, "If you don't hit her, Da Song
The emperor can't tolerate me. What's more, I wanted to slap her that day, but I couldn't do it as fast as you!"
"After all, you will never be able to become an official. If I hadn't slapped her a few times, you wouldn't be a saint of the Red Lotus Sect. Considering that your grandfather is still leading troops to guard the Yellow River for him, the official family..." Ye Qinglian
But he refused to believe it and continued to blame himself in a low voice.
"My grandfather always couldn't climb on the war horse." Han Qing smiled again and shook his head. "This kind of tolerance is not based on trust. Problems will occur sooner or later. What's more, I myself don't
I don’t want to work for such an emperor, so it’s only a matter of time before I leave. Let’s not talk about this anymore, how is your master? I remember you went to see her before we crossed the river?”
"My master decided to become a nun." Ye Qinglian was immediately distracted, sighed, and whispered, "Less than fifty miles outside Bianliang City, there is an abbot of Dayun Temple, and she is an old friend.
.The tomb of Zhao Yuanfen is also over there—"
"This -" Han Qing's eyes suddenly opened wide, but he was unable to make any comments.
He couldn't understand this feeling, just like when he was a divorce counselor in another time and space, he couldn't understand some crazy men and women who fell in love and killed each other.
However, on second thought, for Yu Bolian, being a nun for the rest of her life may not be a good destination.
At least she no longer has to fight and kill for a promise that will never be fulfilled.
"My master is actually quite pitiful. Now that I think about it, she may not know that Zhao Yuanfen is lying to her." Ye Qinglian suddenly became sentimental, sighed again, and added faintly, "It's just that she would rather live in a scam.
, and are unwilling to accept reality.”
"Your master has practiced martial arts for many years, and his body has always been strong. You will have many opportunities to come back to see her in the future." This was the first time for Han Qing to see Ye Qinglian so sad, and she couldn't help but whisper comfort.
"I definitely want to follow you..." Ye Qinglian raised her head sensitively and emphasized in a low voice. Halfway through her words, she blushed again and her voice quickly dropped, "Brother Han, what you mean is that we can return home in the future.
Da Song is coming? Is that right? Don’t blame me for being trembling, I, I have actually not been very peaceful these days."
"Of course! I'm not a fugitive, why can't I come back?" Han Qing had already thought about this problem and immediately nodded with a smile.
"Then, then I'll come back with you!" Ye Qinglian was immediately relieved and emphasized again in a low voice regardless of her shyness.
"Of course together!" Han Qing nodded with a smile, and then quickly turned his eyes to Dou Rong.
Ye Qinglian was a child of the world, and she was still so frightened and uneasy when she heard that she was going to sea by boat. Dou Rong was younger than Ye Qinglian and had never traveled far before meeting her. She was suddenly thousands of miles away from her hometown. At this time
At this moment, she was probably feeling even more nervous.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little guilty. He smiled and nodded to Ye Qinglian, then grabbed the water bag that he had not yet used, and walked quickly to Dou Rong, "Rongwa, drink water. Finish drinking the water."
After that, let’s get on our horses and continue on our way. We’ll try to reach the Ji County ferry before dark.”
"Yes!" A bright smile immediately bloomed on Dou Rong's face. She strode forward to meet him, took the cowhide bag filled with water from his hand, raised it to her mouth, and drank slowly in small sips.
After galloping for most of the day, her hair was messy and the ends of her hair were covered with wet mud. Han Qing looked carefully, took out a handkerchief naturally, wiped the mud from her hair, and then
He arranged her hair smoothly and warned with a smile, "When we get on the ship, take the time to write a letter to my father-in-law. Tell him not to worry, we are just going for a walk and we will be back in a year and a half."
"Yes!" Knowing that her husband was a careful person, Dou Rong put down the water bag and nodded gently.
"In addition, I plan to ask Dou Sha to deliver a message to Zhe Weizhong, and ask Zhe Weizhong to keep him. The Yong'an Army has always been the Zhe family's territory. There won't be anyone there because I'm looking for him.
"The trouble." Han Qing turned to look at Dou Sha again, and continued to add in a low voice. "After two years, he has made great contributions and became a local official, and he can take his father-in-law and mother-in-law to live out his old age.
.At that time, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty had probably forgotten us a long time ago. If we want to go home, we can come back at any time."
"I'm not in a hurry to come back." Dou Rong tilted her head and thought for a while, then responded with a smile, "Brother, I actually like walking around with you. I feel more comfortable than when you were an official and stayed at home. Don't laugh at me.
It’s useless. In fact, when we were in Qingzhou, Xu Ziling discovered that Mrs. Gaoming’s job was very honorable for both of us, but it was very tiring and annoying!”
This is true.
Influenced by the customs and experiences of another world, Han Qing is extremely tolerant and respectful of the women around her. She is actually less restrained by Han Qing than she is by her parents.
Therefore, during the time when I was on the run with Han Qing, although every day was hard and scary, when I think about it later, it is an extremely beautiful memory.
But after Han Qing cleared her grievances, became an official, and she became an official's wife, although the scenery was beautiful, she lost a lot of fun and faced many new constraints.
"Actually, I'm just like you, being an official is very tiring." Once again feeling that he and his wife had a connection, Han Qing nodded with a smile. "Maybe I'm not suitable for being an official by nature. Now that I quit my job, I will
I feel relaxed.”
"I can feel it." Dou Rong handed the water bag back to Han Qing, and gently held his sleeve with her hand, "These days of fighting and killing, although it is dangerous, the danger is always in the open. And
When you were an official, I didn't know where the dangers would be hidden. So I often couldn't sleep at night. Especially when you were recalled to Bianliang to serve as the Southern Secretary..."
"Rongwa——" Han Qing stretched out her arms and gently held Dou Rong under her armpits.
Now an old married couple, Dou Rong didn't care if anyone was peeking around. She took a comfortable position and gently rested her head on his shoulder.
Soon she would have to get on the horse again, and she knew she didn't have much time. However, even if she leaned lightly for a dozen breaths, she would feel at peace.
Feeling his wife's fatigue, Han Qing tried his best to stretch his shoulders so that the other party could lean against her more firmly. At the same time, he raised his other hand and directed others to collect their mounts, tidy up their harness, and prepare to leave.
"Brother, after arriving in Dengzhou, where should we go next?" Dou Rong's voice suddenly came from the hollow of his shoulder. It was very low, like talking in sleep. However, Han Qing could hear every word clearly.
"After arriving in Dengzhou, of course we will go to sea by boat. The world is so big..." Han Qing responded with a smile without even thinking about it.
Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped again. His eyes were filled with confusion for an instant.
The world is huge, and the Song Dynasty is just a small part of it.
However, in this era, except for the Song Dynasty, Liao Dynasty, Dali and Goryeo, other places were either inaccessible to sea ships or were still barbaric!
The world is vast, but the legendary Penglai Wonderland does not exist.
There is no place other than the Song Dynasty that is his and her hometown.
