Shen Cha felt that this was the soundest and most comfortable night she had slept in so many days. Because of the changes in the Liao Kingdom, she had not had a good rest for a long time. She could only sleep for an hour at most every day. There was a lot of news. At that time, it was common to go without sleep for three to five days. Fortunately, the overall situation of the Liao Kingdom had been decided, and she could finally take a rest. She got enough rest, and the fatigue and various physical discomforts in the past few days were gone. Shen Cha felt that his energy was much better than before, and his headache symptoms had also disappeared. As Jin Miaomiao said, some diseases can be cured by themselves without taking medicine.
Opening his eyes, Shen Cha looked around and found that he was lying on the bed. He reached out and touched the side and touched a warm body. He sighed helplessly. He probably woke up in the middle of the night and saw The one who was on the soft couch was carrying oneself to the bed. In order not to wake up Shen Haolin, she turned over gently. When she raised her eyes, she saw Shen Haolin lying next to her. He looked like he was sleeping soundly. She didn't know if he had a sweet dream. His face His expressions are much softer than when he is awake. She silently guessed in her heart that only she had seen Shen Haolin like this in the entire Daxia. If she thought about it this way, she was quite honored.
"Are you awake? Did you sleep well?" Shen Haolin stretched out his arms, and Shen Cha moved into his arms, "After peeping for so long, do you think your brother is the most handsome man in Great Xia?"
In fact, Shen Haolin woke up as soon as Shen Cha turned over. Except for the one or two hours when he was drunk, he had always been alert when sleeping. This was a habit developed through many years of border life. Even during the truce period, he could not sleep well. If there was the slightest movement, he would immediately wake up. wake up. Even if Shen Cha deliberately made his movements gentle, he could still feel it.
"Brother, is he possessed by Lord Xue?" Shen Cha pushed Shen Haolin, "Now that you're awake, get up."
"There's no rush. You don't have to go to the military camp today, and you don't have to deal with so many official duties. Just let the brothers below do the tedious little things." Shen Haolin didn't stand out, patting Shen Cha on the back. Back, "It's rare to get some rest, let's sleep a little longer!"
"Brother is very leisurely, but little sister has a lot to do." Although she complained, Shen Cha closed her eyes again, "I have made an appointment with Miao Miao before, and I want to go take a look on the street today. . Your Majesty has handed over the city of Jiapingguan to our town government. The public security in this city and the livelihood of the people are under our control. If we can't manage it well and a big troublesome problem occurs, your Majesty will blame it. My sister will not take the blame."
"Really? You are the one who is said to be venomous and soft-hearted. Ever since we were young, when did Song Jue say bad things about me and you didn't stand up to argue for me? Are you eager to clear up the relationship now?" Shen Haolin raised his arms. Tightening a little, he lowered his head and kissed the top of Shen Cha's hair, "Don't tighten yourself up all the time. Relax once in a while, and balance work with rest. Look at your brother Xiaotian, he's just doing nothing all day long, he's not trying to attract cats. Handing the dog is just a bad-mouthed thing to seduce other girls and boys, but at the critical moment, his mind is still very clear and he is still very reliable!"
"I can't learn from Mr. Xuehou's tricks!" Shen Cha rolled his eyes silently, "Hongye always complained to me that Mr. Xuehou would take her to a brothel to drink wine every now and then. He also said that if she If you don’t like those pretty girls, you can go to the Nanfeng Pavilion next door to find some handsome young men. Hongye was so angry that he threw the cup and came to me to complain. "
"What Xiaotian did is too much. No wonder Hongye tried so hard to anger Xiaotian and tried to get Xiaotian to return her. No one else would want to be by his side anymore." Shen Haolin was helpless, Xue Ruitian loved Playing is famous throughout Jiapingguan City, but who would have thought that he would take a female guard to visit a brothel and find a girl for the female guard. If it were him, he would probably have a big mouth.
"When he chose Hongye, I was not optimistic about it. These two people are not on the same page, and disputes and differences are inevitable. Although Hongye is a guard, he is very arrogant. The most disdainful thing is a romantic young man like Brother Ruitian. I have advised him. Brother Ruitian changed players, but he refused. I thought at the time that maybe he was attracted to Hongye. But judging from the current situation, that doesn't seem to be the case."
"The little genius won't fall in love with Hongye. He has a high vision. Even the noble girls in the capital won't fall in his eyes. Even Hongye is like that. It's even more impossible. Speaking of...Cha'er, Brother Wei hasn't discussed it with you yet. After asking this question, even though you are still young, you can still think about whether there is any boy you like, or what kind of boy you like."
Shen Cha was frightened by the sudden question. She didn't know that Shen Haolin did it on purpose and spoke unintentionally. She didn't know how to answer and could only choose to remain silent.
"Why don't you speak?"
"I don't know what to say, I never thought about this." Shen Cha calmed down his emotions a little and decided to pretend to be dumbfounded, "Brother knows that I was born here, grew up here, and will die here in the future, or Died on the battlefield. Those gentle gentlemen would not choose me. I would not choose them. As for those in the army, it is even more impossible. They feel more friendly when they see the Liao soldiers than when they see me." Shen Cha said a little After a pause, "Brother, I'm already twenty-two this year. You should be the one who should be anxious. Oh, and brother Ruitian, you two are the focus. One day His Majesty will be happy..."
"Stop talking about this!" When Shen Haoli saw that the topic had turned to himself, he quickly stopped the topic and abruptly brought the topic back to Xue Ruitian. "Well, I've thought about it. I'll go find Xiaotian this afternoon and have a chat with him. Stop bullying Hongye all the time. If you really make him angry and run away, I want to find another guard like this who can tolerate him, but... It’s difficult.”
"Only if he can listen." Shen Haolin changed the subject. Shen Cha finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although she didn't get the answer she wanted, she didn't feel disappointed. Her brother was very slow in this regard. You won't get it right at the moment. "Brother Ruitian was not like this when she was a child. In my memory, she was a gentle and elegant young master who was polite to everyone. Is it related to that incident that he is like this now?"
"This is inevitable. If anyone encounters such a thing, it is impossible not to change." Mentioning the past, Shen Haolin felt uncomfortable, "Xiaotian is a person who seems heartless on the surface. What's the matter? I don't care, but in fact, among the few of us, he is the one who thinks the most. Sometimes, even I am not sure what he is thinking. Especially after that incident, this feeling becomes even more It’s obvious. You said yesterday that someone was pursuing that matter, and the first person I thought of was him.”
"My brother and I have the same idea. If there is anyone else who is worried about that matter, besides us and His Majesty, it is only him."
"If he wants to investigate, let him investigate. If he can find out the truth, everyone will be happy. If he can't find out, it can be regarded as an explanation for himself. We don't have to interfere. Otherwise, it will hurt the feelings of so many years." Shen Haolin. Opening his eyes, he looked at Shen Cha who was staring straight at him, smiled, and said, "I know what you are worried about. He who is pure will be clean. We all know what kind of person our father is. He has never done anything he has done." Even if someone tries to throw dirty water on the matter, it will be in vain, it will eventually be revealed."
"It also takes time in broad daylight. If there is a misunderstanding during this process, the impact will be very large. The Zhenguo Duke's Mansion and the Wuding Marquis Mansion have always supported each other. For Daxia and Jiapingguan City, there is a missing person. No. It would not be a good thing if the Wuding Marquis Mansion has a grudge against us. There are many spies from Liao and Jin in the city, and they are not blind."
"When it comes to that point, Song Jue can no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb. To be disrespectful, this situation is a gift from the late emperor, and Song Jue will take on the heavy responsibility of cleaning up the mess. Don't worry, Song Jue is so smart. People will not just watch the situation become so bad. Moreover, he and Xiaotian are cousins. If Madam Bo really has a problem, the Queen Mother in the palace will not be able to escape from it. " Shen Haolin He stretched out his hand and pinched Shen Cha's serious face, "Stop thinking about it. It's useless to think about things like this. What's supposed to come will definitely come, and what's supposed to happen will inevitably happen. Worrying is all unnecessary. The soldiers will stop you. , The water will come and the earth will cover it up, it depends on our ability to adapt to changes."
"That's what my brother said!"
"What we have to care about right now, apart from your birthday, is the New Year. This year's group of recruits all seem to be pampered. This is probably the first time they have left home and come to such a remote place. They should still be thinking about it. I can have a good New Year here, but after being scared by you yesterday, my New Year mood should be gone. But they have no such plan, we can't ignore it, after all, it is their first New Year at the border, so they have to Let’s leave a deep impression on others.”
"Brother, what do you suggest?"
"I just don't know how to do it, so I wanted to ask you."
"I don't know either. You should go to Mr. Xue for this kind of thing. He is better at this."
"Ask him?" Shen Haolin shook his head, "He will propose taking all the recruits to visit the brothel."
Shen Cha blinked, she thought this was something that guy Xue Ruitian could do.
"Forget it, let's ask the recruits what they want later. Since they are the protagonists, let them think of their own ideas!"
"That's fine." Shen Cha nodded and looked at the sky outside, "It's time to get up. Miaomiao will come to have breakfast with us soon. Brother, don't you want her to see you like this?"
"I just forgot to ask, why did Jin Miaomiao ask you out again?" Shen Haolin looked disgusted, reluctantly let go of Shen Cha, lifted the quilt, turned over and got out of bed, "It's such a cold day , she didn’t stay in the medicine house to study her poisons and antidotes, and actually ran out for a walk, it’s really not in line with her usual style!"
"Today is her birthday." Shen Cha got out of bed and took out a crescent-white brocade robe from the closet, "We made an appointment some time ago, and we originally made an appointment with Hongye, but Mr. Xue is on duty today, and Hongye I can't get out. Just in time, I also want to take a walk on the streets, as the New Year is approaching, to see how everyone is doing and if there is anything I need help with."
"As the end of the year approaches, the streets become less and less peaceful. People say that our Jiapingguan city is impregnable, but where is there any truly solid city in the world? If nothing else, there are a lot of Guangliao Jin spies in this city, right? It's approaching the end of the year. , everyone is buying New Year’s goods, it’s so noisy, those spies will be mixed in the crowd, we don’t know what they want to do. You are good at it, but don’t be careless, bring more people, just in case.” Shen Haolin walked to the door, knocked on the door, and asked the shadow guarding outside to bring hot water in.
"knew."
Looking at Shen Cha who opened the door to let the two female shadow guards in, Shen Haolin suddenly became uneasy for some reason, always feeling that something was going to happen. He wanted to tell Shen Cha not to go out today, but he couldn't. Shen Cha had been a man of his word since he was a child. Since he had promised others, he would naturally keep his promise.
Shen Haolin had no choice but to take advantage of Shen Cha's grooming time to call aside the two female movie guards Ying Sixteen and Ying Seventeen who were about to go out with him, and carefully told them to take good care of Shen Cha and not let strangers People approach.
Even so, Shen Haolin was still worried. After having breakfast and sending Shen Cha and Jin Miaomiao out, he found several of his shadow guards and asked them to follow the two people secretly. It would be best if nothing happened. Okay, if something unexpected happens, the other party won't be caught off guard.
I have to say that Shen Haolin's intuition was quite accurate. Shen Cha came back half an hour after he left, but he didn't walk back by himself. Instead, he was carried back by the shadow guards with his body covered in dazzling blood red.
"My lord, the general was assassinated and was seriously injured and fell into a coma."
