Chapter 39 Unintentional Sleep
Women love beauty, both ancient and modern. Unexpectedly, the threat of death failed to make her awake, and a fat word made her excited as if she was fighting a cock. After a good explanation, Ma Lian'er felt relieved.
After waking up, she was so cold that she couldn't bear it. Her teeth were quarreling. At this time, her shoulders sank. She reached out and touched her hands and said in a silence: "Give me the robe, what do you do?"
Yang Ling sighed, "I'm afraid I won't be able to get up to dawn." After the words fell, the robe returned to him, and then hugged his hands tightly. Ma Lian'er murmured tremblingly: "Let's get closer, maybe we can get through it, and we must be in a hurry to follow everything, right?"
It was indeed much warmer to get closer. Silently, Yang Ling hugged Ma Lian'er tightly and surrounded the two of them with a long robe. Perhaps because of the tension, the breathing of both of them was a little cramped. Yang Ling remembered the young lady and the two hugged each other for warmth on that cold winter night. She felt a little dazed for a moment.
After a while, a vague voice in his arms said, "Didn't you say you want to chat? Why don't you talk?"
"Hmm? Oh, I heard that you lived in the West since you were a child. Where is your hometown?" Yang Ling calmed down and found a topic randomly.
After the initial shame and embarrassment, Ma Lian'er had adapted to the intimacy between the two. She twisted her delicate body gently to make her posture more natural and comfortable. "Hometown", she yawned and pressed it on his warm chest and said, "My hometown is in Kyoto, but I have never been there. I only know that this uncle and uncle still live there."
"Kyoto? You are from Beijing in your hometown?"
"What, you are a scholar?" Ma Lianer burst out laughing: "Jinling is called Kyoto, Beijing is called Jingshi."
"Oh!" Yang Ling sweated and asked, "Jinling? Since ancient times, why did our Ming Dynasty move the capital here? It is close to the Tartars and is also a bitter and cold place."
Ma Lianer snorted from her nose: "My scholar, I don't have to pretend to be so good if I want to tease me. Should I be more than I am comparing to the exam? The emperor guards the country's gates, do you know?"
She did not notice that she became more and more intimate with Yang Ling's tone, and continued: "For thousands of years, the threats from the Central Plains have mostly come from the north. A wall is outside the Great Barbarians. Yanjing is located in a dangerous position, leaning on Xiongshan in the north, pressing on the Central Plains in the south, connecting the Jianghuai River and Huai River, and going to the desert. It is too close to the Tartars outside the pass. Chengzu moved the capital here, so the emperor guarded the national gates!
Think about it, the capital is here, and the court will not be able to pay attention to the north. Otherwise, why should we station heavy troops on the nine sides? Why did the Jinyiwei send so many secret agents outside the pass for many years?"
Yang Ling thought that Zhu Di had moved the capital here from Yanjing, but he didn't expect that there was such a reason. Think about it carefully, no matter how stupid the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were, most of them fulfilled the promise of the emperor to guard the country. When the last Emperor Chongzhen's life was in danger, he did not use the elite troops of Shanhaiguan. When the general situation was over, he refused to go south to hang himself on Coal Mountain. After all, he did not insult the integrity of the Han people, and did not disappoint the promise of "the emperor to guard the country" until his death.
Ma Lian'er said sadly: "When my father entered the Jinyiwei, he was sent to be a spy outside the pass. After a long life, he finally returned to the pass, but now he doesn't know how his brother is doing." As she said that, she couldn't help sobbing.
Yang Ling comforted, "Don't worry, although the soldiers were in chaos at that time, it would be impossible for Brother Ma to stay by Bidusi. After tonight, I will find a way back to the city tomorrow. Brother Ma must have returned to the city."
"Yes," Ma Lian'er wiped her tears and said, "I hope we can survive this night and tell me a story. I won't be sleepy after listening to it."
Yang Ling thought for a long time, and endured the hunger and said, "Once upon a time, there was a mountain called Wuzhi Mountain. There was a group of robbers on the mountain, and the robber leader was called Supreme Treasure."
Didn’t anyone at this time know the book “Journey to the West”? Yang Ling was very depressed. He had just started to start with the Flower and Fruit Mountain Water Curtain Cave in Dongsheng Shenzhou. After introducing Sun Wukong’s origin, he had just talked for a while and then talked about the story of Tang Monk from Jin Chanzi to Drifter.
Ma Lian'er lay comfortably on his chest and listened quietly to him. But Yang Ling was very embarrassed because he thought it was funny and humorous jokes, but Ma Lian'er did not laugh. Do women in the Ming Dynasty have no humorous cells?
When talking about Fairy Zixia, Ma Lian'er became energetic. When she heard Fairy Zixia ask for a kiss from Supreme Treasure, she suddenly thought of the unintentional kiss of the two when they ran down the mountain. Thinking about it, her lips hurt even more, but her heart felt a little itchy.
She couldn't help but say, "Why didn't Supreme Treasure accept her? Bai Jingjing is a fairy, he is a great saint exiled mortal. The two of them are not compatible at all. Miss Zixia is a god, and Supreme Treasure is right. This fate is arranged by God.
God arranged it, not enough, not enough, he was stinky, haha!" She always thought that the line Yang Ling said was a vulgar sentence, but she also found it interesting, and she couldn't help but smile embarrassedly when she said it.
Du, for the first time I heard someone explain "A Chinese Odyssey" with a good match, and then asked Ma Lianer again: "Who did the Supreme Treasure like in the end?"
"Uh, Fairy Zixia."
"Hey! Men, right and wrong!" Ma Lian'er was disappointed. Yang Ling's face heated up and she defended herself: "Maybe you are right. Even the Monkey King cannot fight with the heaven. As for the destined fate of heaven, he can only obey the mercy of fate."
Ma Lian'er shrank in his arms like a little quail. After a while, she suddenly ate and said, "Then are we considered fate arranged by God?"
After plucking up the courage to say this, she felt that all her strength was used up. She buried her head in his arms with a fever and refused to come out again. Yang Ling was shocked and stunned for a while before saying, "Don't think about it all the time. Although our ears are worn out, we can't get into trouble. If you don't say it, you won't say it, and no one will know."
"Heaven knows the earth, you know, I know, you kiss and hug, how can I get married?" The night was shy, Ma Lian'er said "righteously", but his heart beats: "No matter whether it is a victory or a defeat this time, Lord Min killed a prince, and the official promotion is determined. You are his confidant, young and promising, and maybe in three or two years, you can become a parent official in a county. Although I am the daughter of a small official's family, I am also a good teacher and a thank-you ceremony. If you become an official, you need a wife who deserves yours."
She was ashamed of herself: "My Ma Lian'er has always been arrogant and arrogant. Now that she is so arrogant, she is already shameful. She also has to provoke others to divorce her wife. No matter how she looks, she looks like a bad woman she has always been the most shameless. Who has no selfishness?
When Yang Ling heard her suggest that she would stop marrying her wife, anger surged in her heart. He straightened his back and said coldly: "Ms. Ma, you grew up outside the Great Wall. What I admire most is your cheerful and generous personality. I don't believe that you will care about those foolish things. Can I give up for you today, and won't give up for others in the future?
Fairy Zixia said it well: 'If I can't be with the person I like, I won't be happy even if I am the Jade Emperor', so will I. If I ask me to give up my young mother, I won't do it even if I give it to an emperor!"
Ma Lian'er was ashamed of being criticized by him. She said with shame and shame: "Then I, I, I, are you willing to be your side room, do you agree to this?"
Yang Ling was stunned, feeling a little moved and helpless. He smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Lian'er, why did you kill yourself? Yang Ling can't bear your deep affection."
Ma Lianer suddenly left his arms, stared at his position and said angrily: "Do you think I am not beautiful enough or do you think I am not virtuous?"
Yang Ling hurriedly said, "Miss Lian'er, you are very beautiful and cute. I also believe that you are a self-esteem and strong girl. You look down on those big men who treat women as playthings and despise their so-called husband and wife virtue. That's it. Once you fall in love with someone, you will be even more determined. Thanks to your favor, Yang Ling is really impressed."
"It sounds nice. I'd rather be in a position of being a vain because I believe you will be really nice to me. Why, in your heart, no one in this world can compare to a young lady, right?"
Yang Ling said with a sigh: "You are wrong. In my heart, Young Mother is a very ordinary girl. She is not the most beautiful, nor is she the cutest. In the vast world, she has not seen all the scenery. Who dares to say that what he has ever seen is the most beautiful?
But you can taste the scenery everywhere and choose the most beautiful place as your residence. You can even have all the ability. But women are different. Love is not just about appreciation and sacrificing it, but also about the responsibility to each other. Since you love each other, you should keep your promise of being together and having a long-term relationship.
There are so many cute women in the vast sea of people. Do I love each other when I see better and abandon the past? Then all I can get is the beauty of a woman! As you said in Hongyanlou, treat your wife as your own object and have no sincerity. Why should she treat her sincerely?"
Ma Lian'er stopped quietly for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "The scholar talks endlessly and is willing to give up the disadvantage. Why are they joking with you?"
Yang Ling was stunned, wondering whether she was really joking or she was ashamed of herself. Unfortunately, the night was as bright as ink. He did not see the brightness flashing in Ma Lian'er's eyes and the meaningful smile on her lips. It was the smile when she saw the prey she was bound to win.
Ma Lianer recalled Yang Ling's words, is this woman who came back from the Great Wall really an alien? This scholar is really an alien. He may not be the best scenery in the vast sea of people, but it is the most suitable scenery for him. God sent him to his eyes and did not hold him firmly. Isn't it a sin to not hold him firmly? Oh~~The future is long, isn't it?"
After a while, she calmed down and followed the lines Yang Ling had just said with a smile: "The long night is long and there is no intention to sleep. Brother Yang might as well tell me a more exciting story."
