Chapter 759

The autumn air is crisp and the harvest is about to happen. Farmers are sharpening their sickles at home and recharging their energy. Businessmen are preparing goods to prepare for a wave of consumption after the harvest.

There was also a group of people who had stolen half a day's free time and went on an outing outside the city.

Amidst the flying red leaves, raise a cup and drink. You compose a poem and I sing along, how happy it is!

Life is boring, you have to learn to have fun!

The carriage moved slowly.

The car curtain was opened and hung on the hook.

Princess Ningcheng looked at the fertile fields outside.

In the golden waves of wheat, the farmer walked slowly on the field ridge with his hands behind his hands, looking left and right, as if the waves of wheat were his army.

Ning Cheng saw the joyful expressions of those farmers and couldn't help but smile.

"Everyone says that northern Xinjiang is bitterly cold and unfit for human habitation, but look at those farmers... As long as there are people from the Tang Dynasty, it is livable!"

The maid said: "The princess is wise."

Princess Ning Cheng was startled, "This is what my eldest brother said back then."

When the Emperor was filial, he was extremely kind and generous to his younger brothers and sisters. Thinking about it now, Ning Cheng can't help but miss him.

"Brother said that the people of the Tang Dynasty were hard-working and could find a way to survive even in the desert. Gradually they multiplied and multiplied, and that place became a prosperous place. This is the ability of me, a Central Plains person, unparalleled in the world!"

The maid said: "What a pity, Your Majesty."

Ning Cheng sighed, "No. If the eldest brother was still here, why would the Tang Dynasty be like this!"

According to her seniority, she is Li Mi's aunt. If she had not been unwilling to escape from the country, she would have been a serious eldest princess at this moment.

Several dogs rushed over and roared at them.

Ning Cheng smiled, "This dog also loves to be lively."

An old farmer chased after him, drove the dogs away, and then saluted, "I have offended the nobleman."

Ning Cheng nodded, "No problem! By the way, how are you doing in Northern Xinjiang recently?"

The old farmer didn't dare to look at her, "Recently... things are going well! He Lianfeng was defeated and fled, and Deputy Ambassador Yang from Tao County told him to just farm."

"How are your days?"

The public opinion circle in Chang'an is not very friendly to Northern Xinjiang. They always say that the mountains and rivers here are poor and the people are arrogant and cunning.

"Fortunately, the past two years have been much better than before."

The old farmer was very sincere, and Ning Cheng's impression of Beijiang changed instantly, "Was it bad in the past few years?"

"Hey! In the past few years, Bei Liao was rampant, and we didn't dare to go out of the city to farm. We were full and hungry."

“Didn’t Chang’an allocate money and food every year?”

"Young people don't know that most of those grains are bad. Eating them can easily lead to bad stomachs and some even cause problems.

But I felt hungry even if I didn't eat, so I gave my wife and children the food I had to eat, and we ate the poisonous food.

Hey! Poisonous food!

We just can’t figure it out, if Chang’an poisons us all to death, there are benefits!”

Ning Cheng was shocked, "It's actually like this? Have you told Chang'an?"

The old farmer couldn't help but said sarcastically: "Chang'an? How can Chang'an care about our life and death? Your Majesty sleeps with your daughter-in-law in the opera garden all day long. She is so beautiful!"

He felt something was wrong and quickly apologized, "The villain is talking nonsense."

Ning Cheng shook his head, "No problem. Let's go!"

The carriage drove away slowly, and the old farmer watched it go until it was no longer visible, then went back.

Several farmers looked at him and laughed, and one said: "You old man, why are you pretending to be a farmer? You are trying to trick a nobleman!"

The old farmer coughed dryly and said, "Nobles? Nobles eat meat, human flesh!"

He found his horse and galloped around.

Halfway through, I met Bao Dong and his party.

Bao Dong received the news of Princess Ningcheng's arrival and went out of the city to investigate.

The old farmer is his subordinate. "I have met the master. I met Princess Ningcheng earlier."

Bao Dong now has a group of people who are dedicated to publicity, and even hold the position of director.

The old farmer was his subordinate, and he was patrolling outside the city today, telling the farmers that the Deputy Ambassador was concerned about them. Unexpectedly, he met Princess Ningcheng, so he took the initiative to fool her.

He told Princess Ningcheng's words and deeds, Bao Dong touched his chin, and the old farmer felt uneasy, worried that he had made the wrong response.

"Next time you encounter something like this, you should say that Beijiang is grateful to Chang'an."

The old farmer was puzzled, "But everyone in the world knows that Northern Xinjiang is dissatisfied with Chang'an!"

Bao Dong sighed, "Many times, it is better to be patient than to complain. The more patient you are, the more outsiders will feel that you are wronged and have to worry about the overall situation.

They will wonder why we have to bear it after being wronged, think about it...what did you think of?"

The old farmer blurted out, "Your Majesty!"

"That's right!" Bao Dong said: "Many times, you don't need to say who you want to complain about. The best way is to let others figure it out on their own. All you have to do is induce, understand?"

The old farmer was sincerely convinced and saluted, "If I go to Chang'an, I'm afraid I can become a prime minister."

Bao Dong chuckled, "Chang'an, it's not rare!"

He turned around and said, "Immediately go and report to the deputy envoy that Princess Ningcheng is here."

The emperor's aunt is here!

Anyway, I have to go out and greet you.

Yang Xuan was stunned for a moment when he received the news, "Let He Lianyan come."

Helianyan came in a hurry.

He was panting and patted fiercely.

This girl is so charming and charming!

Yang Xuan looked away from the trembling heights, "Is there any news from Chang'an about Princess Ningcheng?"

Helianyan felt a little disappointed when she saw that her boss was not staring at her, "Yes. Princess Ningcheng had a relationship with Deputy Ambassador Liao back then..."

Following He Lianyan's narration, Yang Xuan sighed: "Old Liao is so proud of himself that he wasted half his life."

But what is she here for? Yang Xuan was startled, and He Lianyan said: "Princess Ningcheng became a monk in Chang'an. I am afraid she came to Northern Xinjiang this time because of Liao Jin."

"Are you too old to come and beat up a heartless man?" Yang Xuan couldn't sit still, "Let's go out of the city and have a look."



In the early morning, there was no one in the woods.

The red leaves were scattered on the ground, and when the wind blew, they flew everywhere. Some of the red leaves floated to the creek on the side, and followed the stream slowly eastward. Some of the red leaves fell to the ground, and rolled on the ground with the wind.

Liao Jin was helped out of the carriage, and someone brought a chair. Liao Jin sat down, and several followers lifted up the special chairs and walked all the way to the front of the woods.

"Stop."

Liao Jinren put himself under a big tree.

He stretched out his hand and patted the tree trunk, looked up at the crown, and said: "All ambitions are in vain."

He had also longed for the situation where he would rule the northern frontier with great ambition, but an assassination made all this come to nothing.

His aspirations faded, making him melancholy.

Now that Yang Xuan is in charge of Northern Xinjiang, his position has become even more embarrassing.

If it was said that his stay in Northern Xinjiang was blocked at first, after Yang Xuan killed the good players brought by Tian Xiao and officially fell out with Chang'an, the blocked position became redundant.

When people get old and have nothing to do, they will miss it.

He patted the tree trunk and thought of that year.

At that time, he was young, and when he first entered the army, he was very high-spirited and wanted to do something big. His colleagues in the army were unruly and laughed at his ambition, and some even ridiculed him.

He defeated the army with a horse spear and claimed to be invincible. He immediately attracted the attention of Shangguan and was promoted along the way.

Chang'an at that time!

Liao Jin shook his head slightly, thinking of that time with a smile.

In high spirits, he went out for a walk when he got a vacation. He left his footprints in Qujiang Pond, various workshops, and even villages outside the city.

Once, when he was traveling, he had a conflict with someone in Qujiang Pond, and someone came out to persuade him. At that time, Liao Jin was very angry and refused to forgive others. The young man who persuaded him laughed at him and said that he had no stomach.

The two had a quarrel, and Liao Jin said that he had a lot of alcohol to drink, so he dared to give it a try?

Just try it.

The two found a place to have a drink together, and while drinking, they bickered. Gradually, they started to get along a little bit, so they made an appointment to meet up next time.

It was like this, two gatherings, until that autumn, when the two of them came to the woods outside the city. The man's hat was hung on a branch, and Liao Jin picked it up and sent it over to put it on for him.

He accidentally saw that his good brother had a hole in his earlobe!

Lowering his head again, my good brother's chest muscles are more developed than mine...

I have banned you from Ningcheng.

The good brother revealed his identity, and Liao Jin awkwardly pretended to be disdainful.

Ning Cheng talked about how he managed to sneak out of the palace, and how stupid he was to never find out.

He retorted, and the two continued to bicker...

The friendship is accumulated little by little.

There are two ways to marry a princess. One is to be rich and idle, and live freely. The other is to use the princess to win over someone. In this case, the prince-in-law must either be talented or have outstanding military exploits.

Ning Cheng said she had a way, but Liao Jin was at a high-spirited age and said he would use his military exploits to marry her.

——I will appear in front of you with scars and military exploits all over my body.

This is a man's promise.

Ning Cheng chose to support it, and the two discussed it for a period of five years.

Liao Jin didn't see the dark look in his sweetheart's eyes and left happily.

This trip is a journey of thousands of miles.

It's been a fleeting time since I left.

In five years, he returned to Chang'an, but he did not perform any meritorious service at that time and was too shy to meet his sweetheart.

Returning to Northern Xinjiang again, he fought bravely and was not afraid of death, winning the reputation of a powerful general in Northern Xinjiang.

He often walked along the river, and how could his shoes not get wet? Beiliao set up a trap for him and surrounded him heavily. Liao Jin led his men to charge repeatedly and finally broke out of the siege, but he was also seriously injured.

When the five-year period came, he wished he could fly to Chang'an, but he could only lie on the bed.

He wrote several letters but had nowhere to send them.

Is it still possible to let a courier deliver letters to the palace?

The princess hooked up with her husband in private, does she still need her reputation?

After finally recovering from his injuries, Liao Jin couldn't wait to rush to Chang'an, but when he arrived in Chang'an, he received bad news.

——The princess became a monk and said that she would never marry in this life!

Liao Jin patted the tree trunk, "Back then I would have been shameless enough to go to a Taoist temple!"

But being proud and arrogant, he chose to return to northern Xinjiang.

After returning, he married a wife and had children.

But he was not happy.

There is always something stuck in my heart.

If he could go back to that time, he would choose to break into the Royal Taoist Temple!

"Chang Ning!"

Liao Jin looked at the tree trunk, and suddenly, the girl stood vaguely in front of her, smiling sweetly, "I have been given the title Chang Ning, and even my mother-in-law likes me. You are not allowed to bully me in the future!"

He said slowly: "Okay!"

But, I failed you!

Squeak!

A carriage stopped.

"Princess, this forest is so beautiful!"

"Yeah! Let me take a look."

"Princess, be careful!"

"Who?" Liao Jin's bodyguards intercepted the visitor.

Then, dispersed.

"What are you looking at?"

Liao Jin didn't look back, his body was trembling, "Look at that year."

"That year, you said you were going to marry me with all your scars and military exploits, but you didn't come."

Liao Jin's eyes turned to the lake, "Yes. I was seriously injured at the time. When I could ride a horse, I rushed to Chang'an with my injuries. When I arrived in Chang'an, I learned that you had become a nun, so I returned to northern Xinjiang in anger..."

"That year, there was a big change in the palace. Ye Niang was poisoned and fell down. It was said that the poison was caused by the eldest brother, and then the eldest brother was poisoned and killed.

I was anxious and uneasy, so I was comforted by both sides.

The eldest brother passed away, and Ye Niang gradually got better...but her temper gradually changed, becoming more and more ruthless.

They chose a person for me as their consort, but I refused, so I was banned...

Later, I learned that the palace was preparing for my marriage, so I cut off all my hair with scissors and forced myself to die, becoming a nun and becoming a nun..."

Liao Jin's body was trembling, "I...I..."

"I've been waiting for you!"

"I..."

Liao Jin turned back violently, and his body fell from the chair to the ground. He tried hard to raise his head and looked at the gray-haired woman.

Vaguely, I can see what it looked like back then.

He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart and felt ashamed, "I failed you!"

Chang Ning walked over slowly, "You are arrogant, and so am I. Two proud people are destined to have many conflicts when they come together.

So if you don't come, I won't go either.

Over the years, I have heard a lot of news about you on and off, including your marriage, meritorious service, Northern Xinjiang warrior, Northern Xinjiang deputy envoy...

You have made a great contribution, but it has nothing to do with me."

Liao Jin burst into tears, "I... I'm sorry for you!"

Yang Xuan arrived with his people. Seeing this scene, he and Bao Dong looked at each other.

He Lianyan said: "Mr. Lang, how come Liao Zhongcheng looks like a heartless man?"

Yang Xuan waved his hand and led the people aside.

Chang Ning walked up to Liao Jin and said, "I have been unwilling to give up on you all these years. It's not that I don't want to give up on you, but I've been thinking about it. Is it worth it when I was so determined to fall out with Ye Niang?

Bidige

I often say that it's not worth it for such a courageous man.

But when I took the scriptures, I felt unwilling.

Later I realized that it was an obsession. If I don’t get rid of this obsession, I will feel uneasy.

So, here I come."

Liao Jin lowered his head and said, "Kill me!"

"I won't kill you!" Chang Ning said: "I want you to shout loudly, I'm not as good as a pig or a dog!"

Liao Jin raised his head without hesitation, "I'm not as good as a pig or a dog!"

Chang Ning looked at him, "I heard you were paralyzed."

Liao Jin lay on the ground and nodded, "I can't move below the waist."

Chang Ning looked at him, "You owe me!"

Liao Jin nodded, "Yes."

It was he who turned that pretty girl into a Taoist nun and lost half of her life.

"Then, you follow me!"

"good!"

Chang Ning turned around and walked towards the carriage.

Liao Jin put his hands on the ground and didn't even bother to mobilize his inner energy, he just kept on keeping up.

Chang Ning walked faster and faster, suddenly stopped, and the maid followed.

"Princess."

"Hold him. Go, hold him!"

"yes."

The maid asked someone to help, but she accidentally discovered that Chang Ning was in tears.

Liao Jin got on the carriage, and Yang Xuan couldn't help but gallop out, "Zhongcheng, where are you going?"

Liao Jin was sweating profusely and waved from the carriage, "I'm leaving and will never come back! Zitai, take care!"

Princess Chang Ning sat next to her. She glanced at Yang Xuan and was startled when she saw his eyes, "Those eyes..."

"Chang Ning!" Liao Jin just said.

"Shut up!"

"good."

"Chang Ning."

The carriage gradually goes away...

In the autumn of the tenth year of the Qian Dynasty, Liao Jin, the governor of Northern Xinjiang, followed Princess Chang Ning to Chang'an, but died halfway. Before leaving, he said: "I will bear you down in this life, and I will be a cow or a horse in the next life, and I will be driven by you."

Princess Chang Ning buried him locally, at a place called Wa'erpo. She had a Taoist temple built at Wa'erpo and stayed there to practice. After she passed away many years later, the locals built a temple for her, hoping for a successful marriage and a strong incense.
