Jin Miaomiao followed her brother. During the short time she stayed in the flower hall, she heard many things that subverted her imagination. She needed to go back to her little medicine house to calm down. She felt that this court was indeed a very scary place. The so-called "coming out of the mud but not stained" was a relative term. No one could really achieve this. Jin Miaomiao felt that that place was really not suitable for her kind of thinking. Simple people, if they get mixed up, there is no other way out except eating others alive. In order to save their lives, it is better to stay away from there.
"Looking at it this way, I was really scared. This Jin Miaomiao looked very courageous. He acted like a little bully in front of us all day long. Now it seems that he is just a little kitten who only wants to follow us. Waving your paws!" Looking at Jin Miaomiao's retreating figure, Xue Ruitian shook his head and lay back on his recliner, "However, after this incident, we don't have to worry about her getting into trouble. coming."
"That's not necessarily the case." Hong Ye jumped over Xue Ruitian and landed lightly in the center of the flower hall. He put aside the small table used by the Jin brothers and sisters, dragged another recliner over and tilted it up. , "Miaomiao has never had a good memory. Although she was frightened today, it can only keep her honest for ten days at most, and no more than a month at most. After the first month, I'm afraid she will return to her old ways. Marshal, Hou Master, you have to think again and try something else, even if it's just a show, as long as she doesn't cause trouble in Xijing."
"This is not easy. She is not really stupid. It's okay to deceive her once. But if you use the same reason to deceive her a second time, it will be difficult." Xue Ruitian shook his head, "I'm not worried about her causing trouble everywhere. Xijing is not It's our territory, but Song Jue's territory, and he will definitely not sit idly by. What I'm worried about now is that if we tear down her stage, someone will join her in singing."
"You mean... the princess who is about to get married?" Hongye frowned slightly, "That's really possible. That princess is not a fuel-saving lamp. She has caused no less trouble than our Miao Miao. Compared with her , Miaomiao is a good, well-behaved and sensible child."
"That princess..." Shen Cha opened his eyes slightly and said with a sleepy look, "It gave His Majesty the Emperor a very headache. He even sent Shadow over to ask me if the training camp could accept her and let her train here. Grind your temper, and then go back when you are done."
"When did this happen? What does this guy think of us?" Shen Haolin lowered his head to look at Shen Cha and moved her head to his shoulder to make her lean more comfortably. "Why have I never heard of you talking about it? Song Jue didn't say it either."
"I can't remember clearly, it's been several years. I really wanted to tell you, and I also told Brother Xiaotian that you were still laughing at Song Jue at that time. What were you talking about?" Shen Cha squinted at Hong Ye's face. Direction, "Do you remember?"
"Let me think about it, usually I can still remember the embarrassing things they did." After thinking for a while, Hongye patted his thigh, "I remember it! The Marquis said, look at Song Jue's future, even You can’t even get a girl, but you still want to marry someone. Stop daydreaming! The marshal also particularly agreed with the Marquis’s statement at that time, and added that His Majesty and the princess would definitely not get along because their tempers were not compatible. go."
"Is it really okay for two dignified men to be so talkative?" Shen Cha shook his head and sighed, "However, it turns out that what you said is right. It's okay if these two people don't meet, but they quarrel when they meet. Even the Queen Mother can’t control it.”
"How did you know?" Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian asked in unison, "Did Song Jue tell you again?"
"Well, from time to time, he will send the shadows around him to deliver news. Sometimes he has fooled the ministers to show off, sometimes the princess is in trouble and wants to complain, or else he will talk about the popular food and drink in Xijing. I It's good to take advantage of the opportunity to grasp the dynamics of Xijing." Shen Cha nuzzled into Shen Haolin's shoulder, "Speaking of which, the emperor is really not something ordinary people can do. He doesn't even have anyone to talk to. It's so pitiful."
Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian looked at each other and touched their chins at the same time. Shen Cha didn't feel it himself, but they smelled a hint of danger in her words. The two of them thought at the same time, it turns out that this boy Song Jue has also been interested in Cha'er/Xiaocha. Otherwise, why would he send someone all the way from Xijing to the border just to find someone to talk to? The two of them gave a disdainful sneer at the same time. This lie was so poorly crafted that only the kind-hearted Cha'er/Little Cha would believe it. The two of them decided that when they returned to Beijing to report on their duties, they would go into the palace to "talk" with His Majesty the Emperor, making sure that he had said enough and felt satisfied. It is also the duty of a minister to make His Majesty feel happy.
Hong Ye leaned on the recliner and looked at this and that. She couldn't help but cry tears of sympathy in her heart for Song Jue who was far away in Xijing. She found herself such two powerful rivals in love. From now on, His Majesty the Emperor I'm afraid my life will not be easy.
"Speaking of this princess, I almost forgot that the wedding day has been set, it is the fifth day of the first lunar month, and we will definitely not be able to go back. When people are not around, gifts always have to arrive. Do we have to send New Year gifts along with it? Send it back together with the convoy?" Shen Cha yawned, "You have to think about what kind of gift is most appropriate for a family like ours."
"It's not our turn to think about this kind of thing, right? You two girls can figure it out, right?" Xue Ruitian looked horrified, "Among our contemporaries, this princess is the first to get married. , speaking of which, we really have no experience in giving such gifts!"
"Do we have one?" Hongye rolled his eyes at Xue Ruitian in disgust, "Why do you want you to do it? All you have to do is eat and sleep all day long. I asked you to come up with an idea, but you still resisted. You live in this world What’s the point?”
"Presumptuous!" Xue Ruitian's eyes widened, "You are getting smaller and smaller now, do you need a lesson?"
"You can't beat me, you get punished by me every time, why did you come here?" Hongye continued to roll his eyes, his tone becoming more and more disgusted, "Even if the two of us can come up with a gift, would you two have the nerve to sign it? In the end , don’t you still have to think about what you want to give?”
"Xiaotian wants you to make a suggestion. Let's discuss it and finalize an order so that we can prepare it as soon as possible." Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Shen Haolin quickly came out to smooth things over, "We really haven't had any With experience in this area, I don’t know what is popular in Xijing now. If I send it to the wrong person, it will be a disgrace to our Jiaping Pass!"
"The marshal can still speak. This sounds like a lot of things to my heart." Hongye nodded and continued to curl his lips at Xue Ruitian, "I think..."
"Sister, sister! I heard that eldest brother is awake, is it true? I..." Chen Jiu's people hadn't arrived yet, and the voice came first. When people rushed in with a roar, I saw the expressions of several people in the flower hall. At this time, he suddenly became embarrassed. He scratched his head, smiled silly, and asked, "Am I disturbing you?"
"With such a loud voice, you will disturb your sister again!" Shen Haolin waved to Shen Jiu, asking him to sit down quickly, and said, "You are so frizzy, how do you look like a general? You are not afraid that the soldiers below will disapprove of you. ah?"
"It's fine if you don't accept it. If you don't accept it, come and defeat me. I'm very welcome! But, brother..." Shen Jiu sat down next to Xue Ruitian, picked up the teacup on the small table, and drank up the contents. The tea can be regarded as relieving the symptoms of thirst. He asked, "When I came back just now, I saw the military advisor posting notices. Is there going to be a big movement in the annual reward this year?"
"Yes, it's what the military advisor meant!" Shen Haolin nodded, "In the past month or so, there have been too many things going on in the city and in the government. It really should be lively. At least it can appease the people and tell them that the walls of Jiapingguan City It’s still very sturdy, don’t worry about anything, just leave it to us.”
"Indeed!" Shen Jiu nodded, "I have been leading patrols in the city for the past two days. Although nothing can be seen from the surface, everyone is still very worried about Big Brother. Fortunately, Big Brother is awake, otherwise, the military morale has not been shaken. , the people in the city will also lose confidence in us."
"Oh? What did you hear?"
"They are afraid. The illness of the eldest brother and the injury of the sister are all a conspiracy of the Liao and Jin Dynasties. They will take advantage of this time to attack Jiapingguan City." Shen Jiu stretched out, took off his armor, and carefully placed it on the ground. "By the way, what were you talking about before I came in just now?"
"I'm talking about what kind of gift I want to give to that princess who loves to bully you and pinch your face!"
"Why should I give her a gift?" Shen Jiu pouted unhappily, "Shouldn't she be part of the New Year's gift for His Majesty? Is there any big event this year that requires a special gift for her?"
"She is getting married next month. Do you think it is a big event? Do we need to prepare a separate and special gift for her?"
"Such a fierce woman is actually getting married?" Shen Jiu's eyes widened, "Who can't think of it so hard? Forget it, forget it, no matter who it is, I admire his decision very much, marry him It’s so courageous to have a tiger come home!”
"Xiaojiu!" Shen Cha opened his eyes with a slightly unhappy expression, "Who taught you to talk like this? Why are you so rude?"
"Sister, didn't I just say something behind her back? I definitely wouldn't say that to her in front of her! What's more, I wasn't the first to say what Tiger said, it was His Majesty who said it. I'm just following His Majesty's example That's just what he said. I think His Majesty is right, she is just a tiger, and a crazy tiger. Every time I see her come back, my face will turn red from her pinches, it hurts!"
"Okay, it hurts. We Xiaojiu have suffered!" Shen Haolin patted Shen Cha and told her to stop talking. It was obvious that Shen Jiu was afraid of the princess and instinctively wanted to fight back whenever she mentioned it. "It'll be fine in the future. After we get married, she won't pinch you casually, and you don't have to worry every time you go back to Beijing to meet the emperor! As for the gifts..." Shen Haolin pondered for a moment, "Basically, Let’s prepare the specifications. Anyway, the border is bitterly cold and I can’t come up with any great gifts, as long as they come up with what I feel like.”
"Yes." Shen Cha responded, "I will make an order tonight and let them prepare according to the order. It will not delay the trip."
"After sitting for a long time, let's get up and move around." Xue Ruitian got up from the recliner, stretched his waist, shook his arms, kicked his legs, and walked unsteadily in front of Shen Haolin and Shen Cha. He bent down slightly and narrowed his eyes. , stared at the two of them for a long time, which made the two people feel a little scared, and then slowly said, "Tell me, are you two hiding something from me?"
"..."
