Because of the Chinese New Year, Qin Zheng finally changed out of his previous dull-looking black robe and chose a blue robe embroidered with cloud patterns. He looked very refreshing. The cut of this robe is very form-fitting, making Deputy Commander Qin's figure look particularly good.
Qin Zheng was born in the south of the Yangtze River, and his skin color is much lighter than that of people in the north. Although he has been in the north for many years and was transferred to the southwest for many years, his skin color has not changed much due to the changes in the environment. This blue robe makes the deputy commander look at least ten years younger when he wears it. It doesn't feel as oppressive as before, and it also has a sense of playfulness that belongs to young people.
Qin Zheng was very happy to see his young apprentice bringing three nominal apprentices to wish him a happy new year, and looked at them with a smile on his face.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Qin Zheng waved to Uncle Yan who was coming over, "Xiao Feng, where are the gifts for the children?"
"It's here." Uncle Yan came over with a sandalwood tray in his hand, and placed a bunch of small purses on it. The purses were all embroidered with names. He first found the word "tea" and embroidered it. purse and handed it to Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng put the small purse into Shen Cha's hand and said seriously, "Master has no other wish. I just hope that you will stay away from injuries and be healthy in the new year. If you are trying to be brave, if there is something you cannot do on your own, you must discuss it with Haolin and Xiaotian. You are the backbone of Jiapingguan City. Your decisions are related to the safety of the entire city. You must not act rashly. You must be careful and prudent. ." He looked at Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian, "This sentence is also for you two. I hope you can remember it."
"Yes!" Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian stood up and saluted, "My uncle's teachings, my nephew will definitely keep them in mind."
"Master teaches, disciple accepts!" Shen Cha held the purse in both hands, kowtowed again, and then stood up.
Qin Zheng's eyes turned to the three new apprentices. Although they were in name only, he was still very sad for these three children.
The three children were given a silver longevity lock each, and Qin Zheng hung it on the necks of the three children with his own hands.
"I hope you will be healthy and successful in your studies in the new year, and may you realize your wishes as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Master!" The three children kowtowed to Qin Zheng again, then stood up and followed Shen Cha to the table.
As soon as Shen Cha sat down, he saw Song Qiyun, Xia Jiu and Shen Jiu walking in from outside, arm in arm.
Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu's new clothes were sent directly from Xijing by Song Jue. They were embroidered with the royal family's unique decorations. Perhaps the embroidery was due to the gold thread. Under the candlelight, their whole bodies still shimmered faintly. With a little golden light, at first glance, they look like two little golden figures. When Xue Ruitian saw these two younger brothers, he curled his lips in disgust, but he didn't dare to say anything. Seeing the two younger brothers' helpless looks, he knew that these clothes were made by their own mother, who is now presiding over the palace in the Xijing main hall. Song Jue, who was at the banquet, was also so arrogant.
Thinking of Song Jue now wearing this robe and presiding over the palace banquet uncomfortably, Xue Ruitian felt particularly comfortable. He raised his glass and touched Jin Jing next to him, and drank the glass of wine.
As for Shen Jiu, as he said, he wore the same color robe as Shen Haolin and Shen Cha. He was not inferior at all next to the two sparkling golden figures, and looked very lively and cute.
Seeing the two county princes walking in, Qin Zheng stood up and greeted Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu. Although Qin Zheng is an elder, he is still a minister in front of the two princes, Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu. Even though these two princes never put on airs, they still have to salute when they should.
"Deputy Commander Qin, happy New Year!" Song Qiyun waved his folding fan and said with a smile, "Uncle Yan, happy New Year!"
"Your Majesty, happy New Year!"
Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu walked up to Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, met each other, and exchanged their annual gifts.
"Sister Xiaocha, we all know it!" Xia Jiu hugged Shen Cha, rubbed her shoulders, and said aggrievedly.
"What do you know? Oh, that matter." Shen Cha nodded, "Brother Xiaotian told you?" She patted Xia Jiu on the back and looked at Song Qiyun standing in front of her, "I know the news. How do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
"There's nothing uncomfortable. I just feel that people can't do bad things. Sooner or later there will be retribution. They took advantage of my aunt and caused her to die unjustly, but they didn't get any benefits. After there was no use value, they just ended up like this. A fate of being silenced. And those who silenced them, after living on their behalf for a few years in the world, were also killed by the emperor's brother. Sure enough, he said, God's way is reincarnation!" Song Qiyun pointed at Xia Jiu, "You should give this guy some advice. He's been miserable all afternoon."
"Are you uncomfortable? Why are you uncomfortable? What's there to be uncomfortable about?" Shen Cha supported Xia Jiu and asked him to stand up straight, "You shouldn't have seen them, right?"
"It's not because they feel bad." Xia Jiu pouted, "Sister Xiaocha, even if you don't tell me, I know that you and Brother Haolin have never given up on investigating what happened to your aunt. The most critical thing about your aunt is They are those uncles with supercilious looks, but they are not real uncles anymore. Haven’t all your years of hard work been in vain?”
"Oh, it turns out that the Prince is feeling sorry for us!" Shen Cha took a plum from the plate with candied fruits and stuffed it into Xia Jiu's mouth, "I feel very honored, I thank the Prince for your concern! "
"Sister Xiaocha!" Xia Jiu stared at Shen Cha with a look of grievance, "She is so sad, how can you do this?"
"Okay, okay, okay, I was wrong, Xiaojiu, please forgive me! In fact, it doesn't mean that all the hard work was wasted. At least it prevented bad things that might happen in Beijing, right? The princess's wedding is a big event , if anything happens that day... it would be unlucky." Shen Cha hugged the county prince, who was not much older than his brother, "Also, Xiaojiu, I really thank you, thank you for thinking about us. . But don’t worry, even if this line is broken, we will continue to pursue it, and we will never give up no matter how many difficulties we face!"
"Well, I believe in you, and I also believe in brother Haolin. Although my brother and I can't help much in this regard, we will support you!" Xia Jiu hugged Shen Cha hard, "If anyone hinders you, come here Come to me and my brother, we will beat them hard until they look like pig heads."
"Okay, I remember, if you encounter trouble, come to Xiaojiu for support!"
"That's almost enough!" Shen Haolin couldn't stand it anymore, stood up, took off Xia Jiu, pushed him to Song Qiyun's side, and said, "Just give it a hug, don't go on endlessly!"
"Brother, don't be like this, he is still a child!" Shen Cha patted Shen Haolin's arm and asked Song Qiyun, Xia Jiu, and Shen Jiu to sit down after paying New Year's greetings to Qin Zheng. "Once the county prince takes off his armor, he feels like a different person."
"He has become extremely childish, like a baby that has not grown up!" Song Qiyun said very rudely, "Sometimes, I wonder if there is something wrong with our family's bloodline that makes him become Like this."
"How boring life must be when we are all so mature like you! It's enough to have you in the whole house. Jiu'er and I will be responsible for the innocence, romance, and cuteness. Besides, what's wrong with us being childish? We went to the battlefield. , there’s still no need for you to do anything wrong!”
"Yes, yes, yes, you are the best!" Song Qiyun rolled his eyes, took a plate of melon seeds and started eating them, looking enviously at Xue Ruitian, Jin Jing, Jin Miaomiao and Hongye who were changing cups.
Xia Jiu gave his brother a roll of his eyes and looked at the three children following Jin Miaomiao and Qin Zheng who was whispering to Uncle Yan. "Speaking of which, these three children are really lucky. Bye." The deputy commander-in-chief is their teacher. This is a step to the sky. You don’t know how many people in the army envy them! And that Dai Yi..."
"What's wrong with Dai Yi? He's been quite honest recently, hasn't he?"
"It's not about him, it's about the fellow villagers who joined the army with him." Xia Jiu picked up the tea cup and took a sip. "They were all muttering behind their backs. They were transferred away just because they had a fight with Sister Xiaocha. It's better to go there." He was really unlucky in a place. If he had known this would happen, they would have been there before him. Unfortunately, they only saw the beauty of Dai Yi on the surface, but they did not see how much suffering he suffered secretly. For several days I even saw him getting up very early to practice."
"If you want to achieve something, how can it be possible without some hardship?" Shen Haolin thanked the chefs who served them. Seeing that the shadows and guards were also seated, he stood up and walked to Qin Zheng's room. Next to him, he said, "Uncle, everyone is here, the banquet can begin."
"Wait a minute!" Qin Zheng grabbed Shen Haolin's arm and asked in a low voice, "Do the two county princes know about the matter in that mansion?"
"I know." Shen Haolin nodded, "Cha'er means that if they want to drink, let them drink. If there is any bad behavior, please forgive me a little."
"This is human nature. Now, except for the Queen Mother, their elders have no one else. Thinking about it, they can't help but feel a little sad. Tell them, you can do whatever you want, don't take me into consideration, I won't Never mind them."
"Okay, I'll tell them."
"However, the two county princes are not yet adults. It's okay to drink a little. If they drink too much and make too much noise, I will throw them outside in the snow to sober up. I have said this ugly thing before, If they don’t listen, don’t blame me for the following crimes!”
"……yes!"
Shen Haolin couldn't help but murmur in his heart, Uncle Qin and his Cha'er were truly masters and disciples, their threatening tone and methods of dealing with people were exactly the same!
