Brocade legend

Chapter 35
In March of the 11th year of Jiajing, the peach blossoms were beautiful and the snow was full.

The weather is getting warmer, but it is snowing again. It is as bright as crystal, as light as a feather, as white as jade, as floating as fluff, as if deliberately competing with a hundred flowers.

The children are frolicking and playing snowball fights, not knowing what it means to be sad.The poor and beggars are persevering through the last cold.

Lu Bing woke up in the bedroom warm as spring. His lovely wife, Lian Qiu, had already gotten up and was drawing eyebrows on the dressing table.

When Lu Bing opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the soft waist of the woman he loved and the beautiful face reflected in the glass mirror.

The beauty in the mirror is drawing her eyebrows earnestly. The willow leaves are curved, as if hanging down into the lake of Lu Bing's heart, stirring up layers of waves.The delicate nose and apricot eyes are as if drawn by a fairy with ink, and the rosy lips are plump just right.Lu Bing couldn't help recalling the feeling of kissing, so touching.

Lian Qiu also noticed a pair of thieves' eyes peeking at her in the mirror, she couldn't help laughing, showing a few white teeth.

Lianqiu put down the eyebrow pencil, came to pull Lu Bing up, wanted to help him change, but was almost pulled into Lu Bing's arms, Lianqiu shyly patted Lu Bing's arm, and called the servant Xueyan to bring Lu Bing to wash water and tea.

Lu Bing got up, finished washing with the help of his wife and maidservants, put on the flying fish suit, hung up the embroidered spring knife, and went with his wife to pay his respects to his parents.

At this time, Lu Bing's father, Lu Song, was getting worse and worse. It was already three strokes in the sun and he hadn't gotten up yet.

Lu Bing and Lian Qiu went in to say hello, Lu Song coughed and sat up, and asked Lu Bing, "But are you leaving today?"

Lu Bing nodded respectfully and said, "Return to father, yes."

The old lady looked at Lu Bing kindly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.Lu Song patted his wife's hand comfortingly and continued to say to Lu Bing: "This is your first time on a business trip, you must handle your business well and don't let the emperor down."

Lu Bing smiled and said to his parents: "Don't worry, you and the elder don't know the child's kung fu? It will be fine!"

The old lady sighed, "But this is a battlefield after all."

Lu Song also nodded and said: "Yes, on the battlefield, a person's martial arts level has no effect."

Lu Bing said with a relieved smile: "Don't worry, if you can't beat him, you can escape. Huang Fei'er can't even catch up with Huang Feier's lightness kung fu!"

Lu Song was amused, and scolded with a smile: "It's really promising!"

Lu Bing chuckled and said, "Isn't this telling the truth, baby?"

Lu Song smiled and shook his head lightly, "You kid..."

After Lu Song finished laughing, he said seriously again: "I believe in your martial arts and means, as a father, but you are still young after all, you think before doing things, think twice before you act, think clearly about the results, and don't ask for nothing but for nothing." Nothing wrong, understand?"

Lu Bing also nodded sternly and said, "My child remembers it!"

Lu Bing coughed lightly twice and said, "Go quickly! Don't delay the time, or you will sleep in the wilderness if you miss the inn for the night."

Hearing his father's words, Lu Bing's heart moved, as if liquid would gush out of his eyes, Lu Bing gritted his teeth to hold back, his father's delicate care and stern words of warmth made Lu Bing unwilling to spoil the parting atmosphere with tears.

Lu Bing took Lianqiu and bowed again to leave. As soon as he left the house, his mother rushed out and said to Lu Bing, "When will I be back?" Lu Bing was stunned and said, "Not necessarily." Bing held his hand, looked into Lu Bing's eyes and said: "Originally, your father didn't let me ask you about your return date, saying that a man has ambitions everywhere, not to mention being loyal to the emperor, he must be perfect, and he can't be held back by family concerns." You, but... I was afraid of you, I came back late, and I will never see your father again."

Lu Bing's heart seemed to be hit by a sledgehammer, and he said after a while: "Didn't you invite the doctor Li and his son to come and treat him?"

The old lady sighed and said: "Physician Li tried his best to diagnose and treat, but your father's body is dying, and it cannot be treated by medicine. This year is very sad."

Lu Bing couldn't hold back his tears anymore, the old lady pulled him over, raised her hand to help him wipe away the tears and said, "Don't cry, your father is nearing the end of his life, it's a happy funeral... Is there anyone in this world who can survive? Let alone your father It is said that to have such an excellent son as your continuation of life, there will be no regrets in this life. I am just worried that you will not be able to see your father for the last time, and regret it for the rest of your life."

Lu Bing fell to his knees, hugged his mother's waist, and buried his face deeply in his mother's arms.
"My child must go and come back quickly!"

Lu Bing tidied up his clothes and came to the front hall. Sun Quan, Huang Lian'er and Shitou had already packed their things and were waiting for him.And Zhu Liu was waiting outside the door with dozens of Jinyiwei's general flag and small flags.

Lu Bing collected his emotions and said, "Let's go, let's go."

When everyone came to the door, Zhu Liu greeted them, and said to Lu Bing with a smile: "Brother, there are five general banners in total, each with ten small banners. According to your instructions, none of the school captains brought any of them. Anyone who is called can be regarded as a master, hehe, of course, it is not as good as my master."

Lu Bing nodded and got on his horse.Zhu Liu also hurried up to the horse, still nagging: "Actually, there are a few hundred households who are good at work, especially that Xue Yang, although he has no tongue... It's a pity you let them guard the house..." Lu Bing ignored him , ordered: "Let's go!"

Everyone got on their horses one after another, and Lu Bing was about to pat the horse forward with a whip, when a thin figure galloped forward on a white horse, shouting: "Slow down, slow down! Let's go together!"

The thin figure rode a horse and quickly ran to Lu Bing and the others. As soon as the knight lifted the reins, the white horseman stood up, hissed, and stopped a horse's head away from Lu Bing.Fortunately, Lu Bing's mount was a battle-tested brown old horse, calm and composed without panic or barking.
