Seeing Jin Miaomiao looking like the sky was about to fall, Shen Cha smiled. In her impression, Jin Miaomiao was a very positive and optimistic girl who was always fearless and courageous. I will not frown when encountering any difficulties. My only thought is probably how to challenge the difficulty and how to solve it. But now she, who has always been optimistic, has been beaten down by everyone and has become like this. It's quite interesting to think about it.
"Miaomiao was frightened!" Shen Cha leaned into Shen Haolin's ear and lowered his voice and said, "What we are talking about is too strange to her. She is not a member of the court and can't imagine it at all. Such a thing can still happen. However, I can understand her very well. My thoughts were the same as hers before. In my opinion, Zhenguo Gongfu and Wuding Houfu are the top royal relatives in Daxia, and With great military exploits, even if there is a villain who wants to plot against you, there is no way to do it. But later I learned that the court is dangerous and anything can happen, and heroes will always be plotted by villains. "
"From ancient times to the present, not many loyal ministers and heroes have a good death. Firstly, the fights in the court are too unscrupulous, and people will be plotted if they are not careful. Secondly, the master is shaken by his great achievements. The last one is the most important. What’s terrible is that with a jealous monarch and a traitor who likes to stir up trouble, the unjust case will be formed very smoothly. Fortunately, our Majesty is not such a narrow-minded person, otherwise, we would not be able to escape this fate. However, When father told us these things, you seemed very calm, much better than Jin Miaomiao." Shen Haolin touched Shen Cha's head, "I was thinking at the time, my sister is incredible. , is definitely someone who can accomplish great things.”
"Why? Where did you see it?" Shen Cha touched his face, "I don't even know."
"Taishan is overwhelming, but his expression remains unchanged." Shen Haolin glanced at Jin Miaomiao, who had not yet recovered, and shook his head, "How does she look like her? She was so scared before she was shocked. If it really happens Aren't you scared to death after such a thing happened?"
"Who said I wasn't intimidated? After hearing what my father said, I was also shocked. Very shocked. My heart was like a turbulent sea. It was completely beyond my understanding. I just didn't know how to express it. It seemed like I couldn't say anything. That's right, I just didn't say a word." Shen Cha glanced at Xue Ruitian who was leisurely and leisurely, "Seriously speaking, among us, Brother Xiaotian is the most powerful. No matter what he hears, he will follow As if he didn't hear anything, he can eat, drink, and do whatever he needs to do without affecting his mood at all. This is the highest state!"
"I can't help it. This is a personal talent. Even if Xiaocha is envious, he can't do it." You look overly frightened, as if we have bullied you."
"This completely subverts my understanding of the court. I thought that this kind of intrigue would not appear in our court in Daxia. Isn't this unique to Liao or Jin?" Jin Miaomiao is still a puzzled person. He looked like he was in despair, "We have a majesty who doesn't take the throne seriously. Are we still worried about someone snatching his throne? Isn't that what he expects?"
"Are you really stupid?" Jin Jing looked at her stupid sister helplessly, sighed heavily, and said, "The emperor always watches the battles in the court, and occasionally adds fuel to the flames. Ministers The more lively they fight, the happier the emperor will be. Although the current Holy Emperor will not do this, nor will he allow others to tamper with the Shen Jiajun, but if someone in the Shen Jiajun really offends the public, in order to prevent the ministers from being angry In such a situation, he will still sacrifice this person to take care of the overall situation." Jin Jing patted his sister on the shoulder, "Until you fully understand this, I will not agree to the marshal, deputy marshal, and general returning to Beijing to report on their duties. It’s time to take yours with you.”
"It sounds like I'm a rare person." Jin Miaomiao curled her lips, "Xijing is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den to me. It's a place that can eat people. Simple people like me, it's better not to go there and suffer. Let's It’s nice here and I feel comfortable staying there.”
"Then you can't stay here forever, right?"
"Why not?" Jin Miaomiao pouted, "That's it. I've decided, unless I want to go into seclusion, I won't step out of Jiaping Pass City!"
"you……"
"Oh, well, Lao Jin, please let her go. All her cleverness has been used in medical skills, and she naturally looks a little stupid in other places. However, if she thinks about it a little, she should be able to If you want to understand, you don’t have to worry." Xue Ruitian shook his head towards Jin Jing and said, "Let’s talk about business. The New Year’s gift list and small tea should be ready. Take them out and let’s consider them. If there is no problem, let’s take advantage of the opportunity. The weather is quite good these days, so let the shadows set off as soon as possible, and maybe they can catch up with us to watch the New Year when they come back."
"Xiaotian is right, I have the same idea. Once confirmed, let them prepare. Leave early and come back early. It is best to come back before New Year's Eve."
Shen Haolin glanced at Shen Cha, who nodded slightly, picked up the gift list that had been prepared, and walked to Xue Ruitian.
"There are not many people in the Zhenguo Palace who need to give gifts. Except for Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and a few princes who are celebrating the New Year in Xijing, there is no need to take care of them. Mainly from your side, brother Xiaotian, and from the relatives of Wudinghou Palace. There are many, and there are many mansions that need to be walked around. The items on these lists are all ordered according to the gift lists of previous years. If there is anything that needs to be deleted or added, Brother Xiaotian can decide for himself!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Let me take a look!" After a while, he finished reading the gift lists and handed the revised gift list to Shen Cha again. "Okay, just prepare like this."
"This..." Shen Cha took it over and flipped it over. He frowned slightly when he saw that there were many more things deleted than added. "Brother Xiaotian, is this okay? Doesn't it look too much?" Too shabby?"
"Shabby?" It's good to come up with these things. If we prepare according to what you wrote, it would be inappropriate. People may not only not appreciate it, but also think that we have done something bad, such as withholding money. Military pay and the like. If they have such thoughts, it will not be a good thing for us. Besides..." A flash of disdain flashed across Xue Ruitian's face, "What kind of people are they? You are just like me. Clearly, it would be appropriate to describe them as snobs, right? I still remember what they looked like when something happened at home!"
"Brother Xiaotian!" Shen Cha looked worriedly at Xue Ruitian, who suddenly became excited, "It's New Year's Day, let's not talk about those unhappy things, okay?"
"I don't want to make myself uncomfortable. Isn't this just a rush of words? It just so happens that I can tell Jin Miaomiao about this. People's hearts are evil not only in the court, but also in the internal struggle of the family. The court is even more frightening. After all, the people in the court who want to kill you are not your blood relatives, but the people in the family who want your life are your relatives. When they meet, you have to bow obediently. I need to call you uncle or aunt." Xue Ruitian sighed softly, "I know that you have been considering my feelings over the years, so you will avoid some topics about my mother and my maternal family. In fact, there is no need to do that. , I won’t care.”
"Brother Xiaotian..."
"Don't worry, I'm fine!" Xue Ruitian patted Shen Cha on the arm, "Some things will come to light sooner or later, right?"
"..." Shen Cha looked at him and nodded firmly, "Yes, I really want to see Dabai sooner or later."
"So, I just need to wait quietly for that day to come. As for those people in my mother's family... they send gifts during the holidays to prove that I am still alive and well, that's all."
"What does this mean?" Jin Miaomiao looked at Xue Ruitian with a confused face, "Shouldn't your mother's family be your maternal grandfather and grandmother's family? Almost none of your father's relatives are alive. It should be the person closest to you, right? How could you..."
"When the incident happened, you traveled around with Master Huilan and were not in Jiapingguan City. It is not surprising that you did not know these things. At that time, the elders of Zhenguo Gongfu and Wudinghou Mansion had all passed away. The two mansions, the entire The three of us are the backbone of the Shen family army." Xue Ruitian pointed at himself and Shen Cha, then looked up at the expressionless Shen Haolin, "At that time, the Liao army was pressing on the border, and the three of us had to bite the bullet and lead Lead the Shen family army to the battlefield."
"I know this!" Jin Miaomiao leaned on the small table in front, nodded and said, "You became famous in one battle. Everyone said that although the old Duke and the old Marquis are outdated, Zhen Guo The Duke's Mansion, the Wuding Marquis Mansion, and the Shen Family Army will still stand tall and become our most powerful barrier against the Liao and Jin Dynasties. This is everyone's trust in you!"
"Thank you for your trust, but you don't know how difficult it was for us to fight in that battle." Xue Ruitian sighed and looked at Shen Cha, "Can we say it now? Xiao Cha was so stressed that he almost cried. She came out, but she was a person who kept her emotions secret. She was sitting in the big tent with no expression on her face. She looked very calm. If I hadn't accidentally seen her eyes red, I wouldn't have noticed it. Her mood changes!"
"For such a big event, the one who is not nervous must be a monster, right?" Shen Cha walked back to Shen Haolin and sat down, handing him the revised gift list, "If I remember correctly, our Lord Wuding was I couldn't sit still at all, and sometimes I walked around in circles in the big tent, and sometimes I ran outside to inquire about the enemy, running back and forth more than ten times." Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin, "right?"
"Yes!" Shen Haolin nodded, "Eleven times, and the last time I finally got my wish."
"That was the first time in our lives that we independently commanded this battle. If we lose, the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, the Wuding Marquis' Mansion, the Shen Family Army, and even Daxia will no longer exist. If we win, we will be worthy of the name of the Young Marshal and the Young Marshal. General. Fortunately, God showed mercy. We tried our best to win that battle and dealt a severe blow to the Liao army. However, in that battle, everyone from us to the sergeants below suffered injuries to varying degrees. Even you Brother..." He looked at Jin Miaomiao, "Just like us, the armors are covered in blood, both his own and those of the Liao army. Anyway, they are in a very embarrassed state."
"Yes!" Jin Jing said with emotion, "It has been many years since that battle, but when I think about it, it seems like it happened yesterday."
"After the battle, I returned to the mansion covered in blood. All I saw was that the house was in a mess, and the servants in the mansion were all kneeling on the ground trembling. My first reaction at the time was that the Liao people were taking advantage of the situation. During the break in the war with us, they sent people to cut off our retreat and destroy our house. However, when I saw the people I wanted to call uncle and aunt appear in sight, I didn’t know what to do. How did they react? When they saw me coming back, they didn’t come to greet me, but asked me why I didn’t die on the battlefield and why I had the nerve to come back.”
"How...how could this happen?" Jin Miaomiao couldn't believe her ears, "Why?"
"Why?" It's a bandit. As soon as I saw the prince supporting me, my arrogant look changed instantly. I lowered my eyebrows, nodded and bowed. It's really as disgusting as it is."
"Be arrogant at first and respectful at the end, as despicable as you want!"
“Hongye is right!” I hate them, so I have the self-awareness not to appear in front of me. Now, I can think of them and give them a New Year gift, which is already good. If I can't think of them and ignore them, they will definitely They will be unhappy and say bad things about me behind my back, but there is nothing they can do about me. They were not able to snatch the Wuding Marquis Mansion from me back then, and it is even less possible now."
"Brother Xiaotian is right. I was negligent. Giving them such a good gift is a waste of things. It's better to keep them for ourselves to enjoy."
"What I'm saying is that they have bad taste. In their opinion, the things you get from them are not as valuable as a cart of cabbage!"
"Even if the Marquis really sends a cart of cabbage, they will happily accept it without even a single complaint." Hong Ye sneered, "After all, they are not as valuable as a cart of cabbage!"
