MTL - Sweet Beauty-Chapter 33 contradiction
Thousands of people on this trip are all good soldiers and good generals. They go into battle lightly, and they are familiar with the army. They have set up their tents in less than half an hour.
The tent is a little rough, with a fence around the periphery and dozens of tents inside. Except for Liu Yu, who lives in the main tent for a single person, the rest are crowded with many people, which not only keeps warm but also saves trouble.
There were only three or five female family members, and the conditions for the march were limited. Ashu wanted to sleep in the carriage with the maids for a night, but for some reason, seeing Liu Xiu's expressionless face and a hint of anger, she felt guilty and had no choice but to Under everyone's eyes, trembling followed into the only slightly more spacious tent.
The army did not bring daily cooking utensils, only the hard biscuits and the pitiful jerky that each person was given before departure. Ordinary soldiers had no complaints, and Ashu didn't dare to be a little dissatisfied. She just sat in the tent, holding a hard cake that was wider than her cheek, as if she was holding a cold stone.
She stared at it for a while, then took it closer, opened her mouth and bit down, until her teeth hurt so badly that she swallowed a small piece the size of a fingernail, leaving two rows of small teeth marks on the broad hu pie.
This thing is rock solid, it's hard to swallow. The soldiers who came and went looked sideways, and they all felt sympathy. With such a delicate queen, which man would not want to hold the world's precious delicacies, beautiful clothes and beautiful accessories in front of her, to be favored by the beauties?
However, King Xiao, who used to be gentle and polite, and was considerate to the queen, has not seen any movement today.
Someone who was extraordinarily diligent dared to propose to Liu Yu: "Your Majesty, the brothers are all rough men. It doesn't matter if you eat and sleep in the open air. After all, the queen is noble and a woman. Would you like to go hunting for some game, pick some wild vegetables, and come back to roast it?"
Liu Yu's forehead twitched, and he subconsciously looked at the little woman who was nibbling on the cake with difficulty, but didn't dare to show a half-distressed look.
Although her hair and clothes were stained with a lot of dust raised by the horses' hoofs, they were still neat and tidy, sitting meticulously on the animal skins on the ground, and the wind, frost and rough food did not damage her beauty at all. The color, in turn, added a tough color to her.
His forehead jumped again, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that many soldiers were looking at the woman from time to time, and his anger suddenly condensed: "No, during the march, everything is simple, how can I show favoritism?"
After saying that, he got up straight, walked into the tent in three steps and two steps, and lowered the curtain to block the sight of others.
The talking general rubbed his head in despair, and did not dare to keep up, but he couldn't help but murmured: "Brothers are all rushing to court the queen, how can you think of favoritism?"
And in the single tent, the curtain that was suddenly lowered blocked the only faint twilight outside, and suddenly fell into darkness. Ah Shu only felt the darkness in her eyes, she couldn't help holding her breath.
Naihe's vision was unclear, she stood up tremblingly, and before she took two steps, her weak feet were caught by the wrinkled animal skin blanket, "Ah" with a soft exclamation, she was about to fall forward.
Liu Xiu, who was in the tent, was not used to the darkness, but he subconsciously reached out to help her after hearing her voice.
In the dark, the two of them collided, and they all fell down and rolled into a ball, smashing the wooden stake embedded in the sandy ground, and then stopped.
Ah Shu was shocked for a moment, and then she realized that she was lying on her back. Liu Yu's armor that was close to her body was cold, and it touched her body, but the back of her head was warm and soft. It was he who protected her with his palm and did not teach her to get hurt.
"Are you hurt?" he blurted out.
Now that her eyes have adapted to the darkness, she raised her eyes to look at the man who was clinging to the oppression, with a little confusion in her eyes. In the haze, his face was still unhappy, and there was no smile at all, but there was subconscious worry between the dark eyes and the twitched eyebrows.
Ah Shu just stared at him blankly, then shook her head and said, "It wasn't hurt, thank you, Your Majesty."
Liu Xiu looked at her up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he realized that he had lost his way, so he coughed lightly, got up, took a scythe, lit a lamp, and illuminated the tent. Liang Liang, as if trying to make excuses for himself: "It's better if you don't get hurt, and you don't have to say I've hurt you again."
After he said that, he felt very uncomfortable. The previous two times, it was indeed because of him that she was tired. He was about to open his mouth to make amends, but as far as he could see, she was looking haggard, resting on the blanket with one hand and rubbing her shoulders with the other, struggling to get up.
It was probably too tiring to travel during the day.
His heart softened, helplessly put the lamp aside, stepped forward and put his arms around her waist to help her up.
Ah Shu leaned against him weakly, raised her eyes and smiled at him. That supple and soft appearance made his heart tremble when he saw it, and his eyes couldn't help but look down, touching the skin covered by the edge of his clothes.
Naked | The exposed neck was long and fair, without any damage, but he knew in his heart that further down, her body tightly wrapped by Qu Ju was covered with mottled marks from last night.
Just at this time, the autumn wind gradually rose outside the tent, blowing open the uncompacted curtain, and pounced straight in, blowing out the flickering candle, and darkness enveloped again.
Liu Xiu moved his hands up and grabbed her shoulders, turned her around to face him, brought her face close, quietly found her cheek, and touched her lips little by little.
The person in his arms shrank slightly, but did not dodge, only stiff and closed his eyes tightly.
His lips slowly moved to her ear, and there was a hint of pity in his low voice: "I'm on the road today, but are you tired?"
Originally, he could have sent someone to **** her away, but he had a breath in his heart that he couldn't swallow. Today, under the impulse, he asked her to go with him. It seemed that he had to add some obstacles to her.
But who knows, she is suffering and tiring, and he is not happy in his heart. Looking at it all the way, he is happy and distressed, and he is suffering from contradictions.
Ah Shu didn't dare to look at his scorching gaze, so she turned her face reluctantly and said, "As long as I don't delay the battle of the king, I'm fine."
This woman seems to have been born to poke at his weakness. She was clearly wronged, but she never dared to appear dissatisfied. If she was arrogant and domineering like an ordinary noble woman, it would make him feel better.
He closed his eyes helplessly, let go of his hands a little, and without saying a word, lit the candle again and got up to leave the tent.
Ah Shu felt inexplicable and didn't understand why he suddenly left, so she endured the discomfort like falling apart, and quietly opened the curtain and looked out.
I saw him looking around for a few smooth pebbles and wiping them, then walked to the fire and threw them in. After burning for a while, he took them out with tongs, wrapped them in cloth, carried them, and returned quickly.
Ah Shu hurriedly retracted her head and sat up properly. He had already entered, still without saying a word, spread the pebbles in the package on the ground, and took the hu cake she had only eaten three or two bites and placed it on it. Bake silently.
The original hard and cold hu cakes gradually became hot under the baking of hot pebbles, and the flax and wheat flour exuded a rich fragrance, which made Ah Shu feel empty in her belly.
Liu Yu used his hand to test the temperature, and pressed it hard. Seeing that the cake was hot and soft, he took a piece of clean silk and wrapped it in A Shu's hand. He said gently, "Eat it, the army's diet is rudimentary. , that's all."
Ah Shu didn't understand why he suddenly regained his usual good-natured appearance, took it ignorantly, thanked him, and ate it one bite at a time. The baked hu cake was much more delicious than before, she swallowed it hard with water, and finally she was not so hungry and weak.
Liu Xiu looked at her for a long time, then suddenly asked, "Zhao Ji, I ask myself that I am an unreasonable person, why do you risk yourself just to beg to go? If you only occasionally miss home and go back to live, how could I? No? Since you are married to me as a wife, you should be honest, how can you hide everything from me?"
Ah Shu's hand holding the water bag froze for a moment, her eyes silently passing his frowning, very puzzled and helpless handsome face.
She begged to go, not just to go home for a short stay, but to stay in Handan for a long time, which he knew very well.
For a moment, she lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, ask yourself, do you want to be honest with me? If not, why do you need me to be honest?"
Liu Xiu took a breath and recalled how he had treated her in the past. He couldn't help but clenched his fists slowly and then loosened them. He lowered his head and said in a low voice, "The person who went to explore the road today came back to report, and there are probably more. I'll meet your brother in two days. You have a good rest, and you have to hurry tomorrow."
After all, he got up and went out of the tent, and replaced him with a night watchman.
…
The next day, still the same as before, hurried on the road just after dawn, took a break to rectify in the middle, and walked a lot on and off, entered Guangping County, and set up camp in the evening.
Liu Xiu treated her as indifferently as she was yesterday, but regained the thoughtfulness he had been in the past. Not only did he roast fresh wild vegetables and pick delicious berries for her, he also ordered someone to draw clean water and ordered his maid to replace her. wipe yourself.
It's just that, he didn't come forward in person, and he was done by others. He seemed to avoid her intentionally. Whenever he had time, he would either discuss the military situation with the soldiers or ponder the terrain by himself, and he would not even return to his own account.
The other soldiers didn't know his contradictory thoughts, but when he was devoted to his official duties and admired him, they could not help but persuade him: "Your Majesty, the next strategy has been fully arranged, we just need to rush to Zhending, it is better to rest for a while. Bar."
I thought that the king was cold-hearted, and already disliked the queen. In the past two days, it was not the case. The two were about to separate. As subordinates, everyone naturally thought of the king, and left more time for him, so that he could have a relationship with the queen. .
After all, everyone has a wife and children, how can they not understand the suffering?
Seeing this, Liu Yu had to disband the crowd, but he was a little worried, wandered for a long time, and was reluctant to go back. He thought about what she said yesterday for a long time this day, and the more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt.
Just now when everyone was eating, he wandered alone in the army, and when he heard a small soldier talking about his wife at home, he couldn't help but stop.
When the **** mentioned his wife, what he said was that she was gentle and gentle in front of people, but behind closed doors, she was aggressive and arrogant and unreasonable. Although he was complaining, his tone was clearly full of nostalgia and concern, which made him fascinated for a long time.
Ordinary people's husbands and wives probably get along so unabashedly, whether good or bad, they must be honest with each other.
Where is it like him and Zhao Ji? People before and after are all disguised as harmony.
He suddenly remembered how she looked so cute and unrestrained in front of Zhao You that he had occasionally seen, and felt more and more that he really failed.
What disturbed him even more was his increasingly uncontrollable mood—he seemed to be paying too much attention to this wife who was alienated from him.
