Looking at Shen Haolin who was lying on the table, already asleep and snoring, Shen Cha shook his head helplessly.
Her brother likes wine very much, or he likes to collect all kinds of famous wines. His Majesty knows his hobby and will send some good wines from time to time. Although he likes wine, Shen Haolin's drinking capacity is not very good. Not to mention a jar of wine, he is already extremely drunk before half of the jar is finished, and there is no response no matter how he screams. Fortunately, this man's drink is pretty good, and he won't cry, laugh, or make a fuss like others when he drinks too much. When he drinks too much, he just lies on the table and sleeps quietly. When the wine wakes up, people also wake up. Therefore, sobering up soup and the like are completely unnecessary.
In fact, Shen Cha has basically never seen Shen Haolin drunk in places other than Zhuyun Xiaoyuan. In her impression, both of them are teetotal outside, and one of them says that he doesn't know how to drink. , one said that he would get a rash after drinking wine, and simply rejected those who came to toast. Even at a celebration banquet or even a state banquet, he was holding a cup of tea calmly. Even if His Majesty proposes a toast, he will receive the same treatment. Shen Cha's evil guess was that his brother was afraid that people would see him drunk, which would damage his majesty as a generalissimo.
"Tidy up." Shen Cha nodded towards Ying Thirteen and Ying Fifteen who pushed in the door, "After finishing the tidying up, prepare hot water for the Duke."
"Yes." Ying Thirteen looked at Shen Cha who was about to pull Shen Haolin up from the chair, "Boss, let's do it. After all, the Duke is a man and he still has some weight."
As he spoke, Ying Thirteen took Ying Shififteen's hand and took the person from Shen Cha's hand, and sent him to Shen Cha's bedroom in a familiar manner. Without saying hello to Shen Cha, he threw the person directly to her. on the bed.
The layout of Shen Cha's bedroom was no different from her tent in the military camp. The furnishings were extremely simple. There was no clue that this was a girl's boudoir, and it was even worse than the bedrooms of noble men in Xijing. The main reason is that Shen Cha especially likes the room to be empty. When the weather is bad, she can box in the room or something. If Shen Haolin hadn't been drinking at her place from time to time, she wouldn't have prepared an extra soft couch.
"Here comes the hot water!" Ying Shiwu came in with a wooden basin, placed it on the ground, looked at the sleeping Shen Haolin, and said in a low voice, "Boss, Mei Zhu is here. She said the boy named Dai Asking to see you."
"See me?" Shen Cha took off Shen Haolin's coat, socks and other items and threw them aside. He wiped his face, hands and feet with hot water, lifted the quilt to cover him, and lowered the bed curtain. , blew out the candles on the small bedside table. "Let's go!"
Walking out of the bedroom with Ying Shishi, Shen Cha saw Mei Zhu standing in the corridor at a glance, waving to her and asked, "What's going on? What did the boy named Dai say? Has Hongye gone?"
"Forget it, General, if it weren't for Hongye, that boy wouldn't have asked to see you so eagerly."
"Are you scared?" Seeing Mei Zhu nod, Shen Cha sneered, "That's all he's worth? You really think highly of him! How's that kid's injury?"
"I've already seen the military doctor. They're all skin injuries. They'll be fine in just two days." Mei Zhu looked at Shen Cha and asked cautiously, "Then do you want to see me?"
"No, the Duke is here, I'm not free." Taking the teacup handed over by Ying Shisan, Chencha blew the hot air, took a small sip, and said, "Go back and tell Hongye to continue, let that boy Experience the fear of death."
Mei Zhu agreed, saluted Shen Cha, turned around and left.
"Boss, it's getting late, you should take a rest!" Ying Thirteen and Ying Fifteen saluted and flew up to the roof.
Shen Cha did not go back to the bedroom immediately, but sat on the corridor for a while, going over everything that happened today.
Civil strife in the Liao Dynasty was inevitable. Yelvertu was a tyrant and wanted to be the king wholeheartedly. He would never be willing to be a regent. Therefore, sooner or later, the Liao Kingdom will still have its own people to pinch its own people, so they can just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and just stir up the muddy water. The situation in Jin is basically the same as that in Liao. Although Wanyan Zongcheng is in his prime and his throne is very secure, this man never plays his cards according to the rules. What he will do next, only God can know.
What Shen Cha is most worried about is not Liao and Jin. The ambition of those people has been obvious for a long time. Their purpose is just to capture Jiaping Pass and then seize Daxia. She felt that this could be solved by force. As long as the Liao and Jin were subdued and feared, their evil intentions could be put away for a few years. But trouble within Daxia was coming, and this was what she was most worried about. This old case from ten years ago will not only turn Xijing upside down, but Jiaping Pass may also become the center of another whirlpool.
But Shen Cha didn't know what role she would play in it. Although she held the only spy organization in Daxia, it was hard to disobey the emperor's order. Song Jue had already ordered her to stop investigating this matter, so she had no choice but to obey the order. , there is no other choice. Using powerlessness to describe her current situation should be very appropriate. Now, she hopes that everyone in Jiapingguan City, her brother, her friends, and her brother will not be harmed in any way because of this incident. After this incident is truly over, everyone can get what they want. Want the truth.
Chen Cha sat outside the house for almost as long as a stick of incense before standing up and walking into the bedroom. Gently closing the door, she walked quietly to her bedside. Looking at Shen Haolin who was sleeping soundly, she sighed softly, turned around and walked to the closet, taking out a thin quilt. , placed on the soft couch by the window.
Gently taking off his boots, Shen Cha lay on the soft couch, covered himself with a quilt, looked in the direction of Shen Haolin, and showed a faint, imperceptible smile. She was particularly fortunate that she was a person with a cold personality and was not easy to show her emotions. She usually kept a straight face and was so serious that many people could not see any obvious changes in her. Fortunately, this was the case, otherwise her feelings for Shen Haolin would not have been hidden from so many pairs of shrewd eyes.
It was strange to say that she had never thought that she would fall in love with her brother who was sometimes too serious, sometimes a little stupid, and also had a bit of a mean mouth. After all, when she was a child, in addition to respecting him, she was also a little afraid of him. He would occasionally dislike him. But since the battle with Liao General Xiao Chongtian three years ago, this respect seems to have changed. Every time I see him, I feel that this person seems to shine.
Shen Cha turned over and looked at the roof. The scene three years ago flashed before his eyes.
In the spring of that year, Liao general Xiao Chongtian led an army of 100,000 to attack Jiaping Pass. In fact, after so many years of fighting, we both know each other quite well. It is basically difficult to determine the outcome. Unless one side can come up with a surprise weapon, it is possible to win.
At that time, Shen Cha was not as scheming as she is now, and her mind was simpler. Seeing that the confrontation between the two armies had reached a stalemate, she planned to sneak attack Xiao Chongtian's right camp at night. She had already found out clearly that the right side was Xiao Chongtian's weakest point. If the sneak attack was successful, the Liao camp would be in chaos.
Now that Shen Cha thinks about who he was back then, he is simply stupid. If Xiao Chongtian's Youying was really that unbearable, he would not have been placed in such an obvious position. It was obviously a trap, just to attract fools. We went for a sneak attack.
The tragedy is that she is the idiot.
On the night of the sneak attack, she sneaked out of Jiaping Pass with almost a hundred people. Under the cover of night, she approached Xiao Chongtian's right camp. She thought she could succeed, but who would have thought that Xiao Chongtian was around the right camp. Heavy troops were deployed, and a total of five thousand people were waiting, just waiting for them to fall into the trap.
One hundred people versus five thousand people. Thinking about it now, Shen Cha feels that it is really a miracle that he can come back alive. At that time, as soon as she approached the right camp, she realized something was wrong and quickly withdrew, but it was still a step too late. If everyone hadn't worked together to tear out a hole, I'm afraid Xiao Chongtian would have made dumplings. After breaking out of the encirclement, Shen Cha and his men did not return to Jiapingguan City. Instead, they rushed to an extremely secret valley. The terrain of the valley was complicated. The Liao soldiers would turn around when they entered and could not distinguish between southeast and northwest. Shen Cha took advantage of the terrain of the valley to trap many Liao soldiers to death, and his pursuers were suddenly reduced by nearly half from 5,000. Even so, Shen Cha's predicament still did not improve. Xiao Zhongtian clung to her, intending to use this valley as her tomb.
Although she had set off fireworks for help when she led her people to retreat, she was not sure when reinforcements would arrive. Except for Xue Ruitian, no one told anyone about her sneak attack. Even Shen Haolin kept it a secret. If Xue Ruitian's rescue was not timely, she would really be buried in this valley.
Xiao Zhongtian's attacks became more fierce with each wave, and only thirty of the hundred people were left. Two of the three shadows around Shen Cha were also killed. Mei Zhu and Mei Lin were both seriously injured. Even Shen Cha himself had injuries on his arms and The leg injuries are also scarred. What was even more troublesome was that the battle lasted for nearly an hour and almost exhausted all her energy.
Shen Cha still remembered Xiao Chongtian's arrogant look at that time. Although this man was tall and mighty and looked like a good person, he was actually ruthless and not a gentleman. He said that he would give him two choices, one was to follow him to the Liao Kingdom, and the other was to use his own head as a sacrifice to his king and prince to comfort their spirits in heaven. When Xiao Zhongtian attacked, Shen Cha had already prepared to die, but even if she died, she would still have Xiao Zhongtian as her backer. After Xiao Zhongtian died, the Liao soldiers were leaderless, and his brother could kill them all in one fell swoop. This could be considered the last thing he did for Jiaping Pass.
Just when she and Xiao Chongtian were fighting inextricably, her physical strength was exhausted to the extreme, and she could no longer hold on anymore, reinforcements finally arrived. What she didn't expect was that the person who came was not Xue Ruitian, but Shen Haolin.
When Shen Haolin appeared in front of her like a god, Shen Cha's heart finally dropped, and she fainted with relief.
