However, Shi Ru was not a vegetarian. He fought with several imperial censors on his own, and he did not lose at all. He fought with the scholars and made the old antiques smoke from their heads, their faces were ashen, and they almost had a stroke. In the end, he was still the emperor. After all, he said that being violent was just a matter of fun between husband and wife, so there was no need to make a fuss, and it was not against the law. After all, he was not running rampant in the busy city.
Shi Ru won the verbal battle with the old men and left the palace feeling refreshed.
And the news that Shi Ru was involved by the censor also spread out. Those men naturally despised Shi Ru for being fascinated by a woman, and actually did such a stupid thing like riding a horse in public, and they thought he was It's really embarrassing for a grown man to be manipulated by a woman. Even if the woman is prettier, isn't she still just a woman?
And those women, especially the officials' wives and ladies who witnessed the couple having fun that day and riding the same horse intimately without caring about other people's eyes, felt jealous and sour in their hearts. They were jealous of Wen Shichu and the others. The relationship between being cruel is good, but the sourness is because they themselves are not so lucky, and their relationship with their husbands is either respectful or guest-like, or they hate each other.
There are many unmarried girls among them, and all of them dream of marrying a husband who loves his wife as much as General Shi.
Wen Shichu didn't know that the incident between herself and Shi Lu had caused waves in the hearts of so many people. She and Shi Lu had had enough fun in the capital, so they went to her hot spring resort to soak in the hot springs. Speaking of which, she still She met Shi Li because she was a hot spring resort. Unexpectedly, Shi Li fell in love with her the first time they met, and even made a ridiculous incident of breaking into a boudoir at night.
Therefore, the two of them had a special affection for this hot spring village. The two of them played there for more than half a month. It was not until the emperor sent someone to urge Shi Zhu because of the barbarian invasion at the border that the two of them went back.
As expected, the prairie barbarians came to the border towns of the imperial court to fight the autumn wind again this autumn. They robbed many towns of food and grass and massacred the people of several villages and towns. They came with great force. Obviously, this time they were not satisfied with just robbing a few villages and towns of food and grass, but wanted to keep going. They robbed the city and even tried to occupy several cities.
With such an approach, it was impossible for the emperor to sit still. He asked the generals stationed at the border to send troops to fight against the enemy, vowing to drive out the barbarian enemies.
However, the enemy troops came well prepared. General Li, the border guard, was too careless. Not only did he fail to drive out the enemy troops, but he lost two cities and lost tens of thousands of soldiers. The matter became a big deal.
General Li is now over sixty years old and is no longer in good health. However, none of his descendants can inherit his legacy. He is the only veteran general who is struggling to support him. This time he cannot hold on anymore and has to ask the emperor for help.
The emperor actually didn't want to send Shi Li, but now the military generals in the imperial court are old and young, and there are no young and old. Among the young and strong middle generation, only Shi Li is able to resist. He has not had time to train other young generals. Come out, so even if the emperor no longer wants to let Shi Ru perform meritorious service, he still has to hold his nose and let him appear.
Because the battle ahead was changing every day, and the battle reports received by the imperial court were all defeats. General Li was defeated one after another, and time waited for no one. Therefore, not long after Shi Ru returned to the capital, he had to lead the army and leave.
Wen Shichu prepared a lot of medicine for him and also gave him a pair of invulnerable soft armor to ensure that he would not die on the battlefield and become a widow.
Shi Li watched Wen Shichu busy preparing his luggage like a busy bee. His heart felt so soft, he was moved and reluctant to let go.
He hugged her and kissed her: "Stay at home and wait for my return."
"You have to come back alive, otherwise I won't keep your integrity obediently. I will take your property to find other men and make you angry to death." Wen Shichu said provocatively.
Shi Ru immediately pinched her mouth, kissed her hard, and said through gritted teeth: "You should give up, you won't have this chance, I will definitely come back."
"It's best like this." Wen Shichu hummed.
Two days later, Shi Ru led his troops and left. Hearing that what was supposed to be prepared for him at Shichu had been prepared, he didn't have much worry in his heart. After all, this man could survive safely in the miasma-ridden southern Xinjiang, and he even Wen Shichu had great confidence in him since he had taken back the city.
As soon as the man left, Wen Shichu kept a much lower profile. Although she was still invited to banquets or visits by other officials' female relatives, she only interacted with Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang is the very interesting step-wife of Wang Yushi. Speaking of which, Wang Yushi was among the elders who scolded Shi Lu for being disrespectful and shameless and took his wife to ride with him in public.
Wang Yushi was in his forties, and he and Mrs. Wang were an old couple. They seemed very affectionate to outsiders, but in the eyes of Wen Shichu, who knew the inside story, Wang Yushi was quite sanctimonious.
Mrs. Wang inexplicably developed a friendship with Wen Shichu. Both of them had a rebellious element in their hearts. After Wen Shichu's guidance, Mrs. Wang became even more comfortable in the Wang family, causing Wang Yushi to suffer a lot. .
Wen Shichu often gave Mrs. Wang advice, and she seemed to be watching the excitement without taking it too seriously. She was indeed bored. After all, Shi Ru was not at home, and she didn't have enough fun when she went out to play.
Three months later, Shi Ru went to the frontier and has not returned, but he has won many expected victories. So the gate of the General's Mansion became lively again, and more invitations were handed to Wen Shichu, like snowflakes. It came, but Wen Shichu didn't care at all, leaving those people with nowhere to start.
Later, when she got tired of staying in the capital, she actually took a few guards and ran to the border. She planned to advance and retreat with Shi Ru.
After going to the frontier, she trained military doctors and participated in the rescue of disabled soldiers. As a result, she was gradually regarded as the most respected general's wife by the soldiers.
The war lasted for half a year, and Shi Zhu returned to the capital after a great victory. Afterwards, he was given a series of rewards. Shi Zhu directly handed over the military talisman. He did not want other rewards from the emperor, but only wanted one reward, which was to allow him to leave the capital. freedom of.
Originally, a general like him couldn't leave the capital casually, but he gave up his military power too quickly, without even the slightest reluctance. He even looked like he wanted to throw this hot potato out immediately, which made the emperor suspicious of him for rebelling. He couldn't be suspicious, and he really didn't love power. He would hand it over thoroughly, so the emperor agreed to his request because he was so sensible.
With no restraints on his body, Shi Zhu took Wen Shichu on a journey all over the world. Their whereabouts were uncertain, but they left many interesting deeds along the way.
They returned to Beijing when they were old. Because they had no children, the Shi family wanted to give them their children, but they refused. After a hundred years, they returned everything to the court and asked the court to use it to provide disaster relief to the people. They were stunned. The Shi family's expectations were dashed.
