"Brother." After washing up and not getting breakfast yet, Shen Cha took advantage of the fact that there were only two of them in the room and sent all the documents he had compiled these days to Shen Haolin. "I don't know if it's because it's the Chinese New Year, but many people have no intention to work. The newspapers and official documents are written in a mess and without a clue. I don't know where the eyes of the people who review them are. How can such things still work? Issued to."
"Isn't it like this every year? Your Majesty is kind and will not argue with them as long as it does not delay important events, so as not to ruin everyone's enthusiasm for the New Year. Those people caught His Majesty's thoughts and were so presumptuous!" Shen Hao! Lin lowered his head and looked at Shen Cha's note, "If they see the small characters in Cha'er, their eyes will probably be scared. Every time I read what those people wrote, I always have a question, what on earth did they do?" When someone is a Shangguan, the handwriting is worse than that of a three-year-old child, it is simply unsightly."
"Since it's so ugly, brother, there's no need to waste your eyes. It's enough to just look at these." Shen Cha dug out a clay pot from under the table, dug out a soft thing from it and placed it in the tea cup. , "Your Majesty is indeed kind, and he often pretends to be stupid, but there will eventually be a day when they can't bear it anymore. When they push His Majesty to the limit, it's time for them to cry."
"What I'm saying is that it's not our turn to intervene in this kind of thing. We can just wait and see what happens. By the way, there shouldn't be anything special in the past two days, right?"
"The most special thing... is that my brother is ill. He has been ill for a long time, and some people in the army are worried. Fortunately, they are still stable. Apart from that, there are no other important things." Shen Cha served. A glass of honey water was handed to Shen Haolin, "No, there is really one thing that I need to know, brother. The Duan family withdrew their troops three days ago."
"This is what I expected. It's time to retreat. Anyway, people are celebrating the New Year." Shen Haolin drank up the honey water and handed the tea cup back to Shen Cha, "I think Prince Duan has already taken care of it." By eliminating his restless sons, Duan Airong's path to becoming king has been paved."
"As my brother said, judging from the current situation, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, King Duan should announce his abdication."
"It won't be so fast." Shen Haolin shook his head, "Duan Airong's prestige in the country is far inferior to that of Prince Duan's princes, both in terms of political achievements and military exploits. It will take some time for Prince Duan to pass the throne to him. , at least...at least until he does a few big things and wins the hearts of the people, it will be possible to hand over the throne to him, otherwise, the country will become less stable."
"It's probably not necessary anymore." Shen Cha sat next to Shen Haolin, looked at him seriously, and said, "According to the reports of the people His Majesty sent to investigate, King Duan has solved all the obstacles for Duan Airong to become king."
"Solve it?" Shen Haolin frowned, "You mean kill them all?"
"This is the news we have received. It is not clear what exactly happened." Shen Cha sneered, "Everyone in the Duan family believes in Buddhism, and Prince Duan pretends to be an enlightened monk all day long, but But he was so cruel to his own son, leaving no room for him. I don’t know which Buddhist school he practices. I don’t know if he can really become a Buddha in a hundred years, or will he be punished for eighteen years? A layer of hell.”
"The so-called study of Buddhism is just a lie, used to confuse the people of the Duan family. It cannot be taken seriously. There is no peace in the Duan family as imagined. If he was really a Buddha, the throne would have changed hands long ago. Where can he return it? It's Duan Airong's turn!" Shen Haolin shook his head and continued to read the instructions copied by Shen Cha, "Wait a minute, the Duan family has withdrawn, then..." Shen Haolin turned to look at Shen Cha, with a look of horror on his face. "Your master..."
"Master has sent someone to deliver a letter. Once he has taken care of the military affairs at Yongning Pass and arranged the New Year's Eve matters, he will leave for Jiaping Pass." Seeing Shen Haolin's appearance, Shen Cha covered his mouth and snickered. After a while, "Brother... you should take advantage of this period of time to cultivate yourself."
"Cha'er, can you please stop doing this?" Shen Haolin put his arms around Shen Cha's shoulders, leaned his head on it for a few times, and said, "My illness is not cured yet, and my body is still very weak. But I can't resist your master's punch. Cha'er, if he bullies me, you have to beg for me!"
"Brother...are you begging me?" Seeing Shen Haolin like this, Shen Cha started to joke, "Well, you're not sincere enough!"
"Really?" Shen Haolin unexpectedly kissed Shen Cha on the cheek, "Is this sincere enough?"
"Brother, as long as you agree to one request of mine, I will agree to intercede with the master and ask him to let you go."
"What's the request?" Shen Haolin straightened up and held Shen Cha in his arms, "No matter what the request is, I will agree to it."
"I just want to ask my brother to promise that this kind of thing can't happen again. That day I kicked in the door and saw my brother passed out lifelessly on the bed. I... for a moment, I even thought, if my brother really I have no need to continue living." Shen Cha raised his head slightly and looked at Shen Haolin seriously, "Brother, this is not a joke, I am serious."
"I know." Shen Haolin hugged Shen Cha tightly. He didn't tell her that he wouldn't take this sentence as a joke, because he thought so too. If Shen Cha passes away, he will not continue to live. He will take care of everything in the world and rush to Naihe Bridge to meet his tea. "I promise you, that won't happen again."
"Brother, please remember today's promise." Seeing Mei Zhu and Mei Lin coming over with breakfast, Shen Cha waved to them. He noticed the smiles on their faces and asked curiously, "Look I’m very happy to go up there, did something good happen to me?”
"The marshal has woken up. This should be considered the greatest good thing, right? The Marquis sent people to spread the news. Everyone in the city and the army is celebrating!" Mei Zhu smiled and placed a bowl of white porridge in front of Shen Haolin. , "Moreover, once the marshal wakes up, the general will no longer have to live without food or sleep at night!"
"Oh? Can't eat during the day or sleep at night?" Shen Haolin raised his eyebrows at Chen Cha, "How do I remember someone told me that she has been very good these days, eating on time and going to bed on time?" He stretched out his hand. He pinched Shen Cha's cheek and said, "Did you learn this ability to tell lies with your eyes open from Xiaotian?"
"No, don't listen to their nonsense, but I eat on time and go to bed on time." Shen Cha touched her face and glared at Mei Zhu and Mei Lin who were trying to derail her, "You two are talking nonsense. You learned your skills from Mr. Marquis, right?"
"Marshal Mingjian." Mei Lin and Mei Zhu have been with Shen Cha for the longest time. It can be said that they grew up with her. Although they are called masters and servants, they are like sisters. As long as they don't make mistakes that touch the bottom line, no matter what they say or do, they will not be punished by Shen Cha. Therefore, they are more courageous than other people and say whatever they have to say. While setting the table, Mei Lin "complained" to Shen Haolin. She said, "The general does eat on time and goes to bed on time, but the amount of food at each meal is not even half of the usual amount, and the time for bed is also pitifully short. We It’s useless to try to persuade him in turn. Once the general becomes stubborn, it will be very scary.”
"Is this why you've lost so much weight and don't look so good!" Shen Haolin touched Shen Cha who was about to fry, picked up a small steamed bun and handed it to her mouth, "Ah, open your mouth."
Shen Cha ate the xiaolongbao that was brought to his mouth. While eating, he rolled his eyes at Mei Lin and Mei Zhu. After finishing what was in his mouth, he asked, "The fact that the marshal is awake is one of the reasons why you are happy. There should be other reasons." Are there other things that make you happy? Did you meet anyone on the way back from the dining room? Or see anything interesting? "
"Nothing can be hidden from the general's eyes. When we came back, we passed by the Flower Hall and saw a good show."
Mei Lin placed a bowl of chicken wonton stew specially reserved for Shen Cha in the dining room in front of her, as well as a plate of fragrant coconut glutinous rice cakes.
"Huating?" Shen Cha raised an eyebrow, "Did the Marquis fight with Miaomiao again?"
"It's not the Marquis this time, it's the military advisor." Mei Zhu said cheerfully, "I don't know what Sister Miao Miao did to the military advisor. One morning, the military advisor was so angry that he ran over to settle the score with Sister Miao Miao. Sister Miao Miao was running around in the front yard. Mr. Hou did not try to stop her. He just sat in the flower hall drinking tea and watching a show. He seemed happy to see Sister Miao Miao in such a miserable state."
"Brother Xiaotian is afraid of chaos in the world, and he and Miaomiao usually have a mutually damaging relationship. Naturally, he will be happy to see such a scene. However, the military advisor has always been very fond of his sister, so why would he run away so early in the morning? Come to our house to settle accounts with Miaomiao? He is not such an unstable person!"
"Let them make trouble. Anyway, it's in your own home and in front of your own people. You won't let outsiders watch the fun."
"That's what my brother said!"
Shen Cha ate a chicken wonton and thought it tasted good. Her brother could eat it too, so she scooped one for Shen Haolin. She originally planned to put it on the plate in front of Shen Haolin, but Shen Haolin opened his mouth directly and looked at her eagerly. Shen Cha had no choice but to feed the wonton stew into Shen Haolin's mouth.
Mei Lin and Mei Zhu looked at each other and quietly left the room.
"Marshal and General..." Mei Zhu pulled Mei Lin away and whispered, "It seems to be different from before, right?"
"I think so too." Merlin nodded, "Some changes have taken place, but I can't tell exactly what happened."
"The boss is slow, and the people around him are also slow." Ying Seventeen and Ying Eighteen fell from the roof to the ground, stood next to Mei Zhu and Mei Lin, and patted their shoulders, "You two wait. Just wait and see, this is just the beginning, there will be many things that will surprise you in the future!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Hmm..." Mei Zhu and Mei Lin, the Eighteen Shadows, blinked, "Maybe the boss will become the real mistress of this house."
