Shen Cha stared at Bai Meng for a long time, which made Bai Meng's heart tremble. Just when he was about to ask if he had said the wrong thing, he heard Shen Cha sigh.
"What do you mean by this?" Bai Meng was confused and looked at her with a puzzled face, "Just say what you want to say, no need to be so hesitant."
"It doesn't mean anything special, I just think it's not easy to be the commander-in-chief."
"I quite agree with this. It's really not easy for me. So, in the next few days, you have to cook me something delicious. I was so frightened along the way that I couldn't eat or sleep well at all. Now that it’s finally here, you have to make it up to me.”
"That's for sure." Shen Cha smiled and raised his chin in the direction of Song Jue, "I said it is not easy to be the commander-in-chief because of our Majesty. Brother Xiaojue has a pure nature. Although he is too naughty, As an elder brother, as a best friend, and as an emperor, he is qualified, right?"
"Well, it is indeed." Bai Meng smiled, "If he knew that you praised him so much, his tail would be raised to the sky."
"But brother Xiaojue has a big problem, that is, he is too willful. He wants to run away every day. It is very hard for the commander-in-chief to imprison him in the imperial city. We all know this."
"Isn't this what the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army should do? What's the hard work? Compared with you, how hard can it be?" Bai Meng chuckled lightly, looked at Shen Cha, then looked at Xue Ruitian, and lowered his voice. Said, "By the way, I have a question for you."
"what is the problem?"
"Answer me honestly. When you heard that we entered the city gate but the carriage had not yet appeared, did you think that we had brought Wanyanxi back this time? Are you particularly... worried?"
Shen Cha and Xue Ruitian looked at each other. They did not deny it and nodded lightly.
"You guessed it right. We did have this plan, but we still gave up."
"Give up?" Shen Cha raised an eyebrow, "Why should we give up? Is it because it doesn't match the plan we made before?"
"No." Bai Meng shook his head gently, "Wanyanxi gave up on his own."
"Him?" Shen Cha thought for a while, "Why?"
"After we came up with this idea, I went to talk to him personally and asked him if he wanted to take this opportunity to go back again. He thought about it for less than half an hour before rejecting the proposal."
"Rejected the offer? That's not bad."
Shen Cha chuckled lightly and looked at Xue Ruitian and then at Jin Miaomiao. She never expected that Wan Yanxi would actually give up the fat meat that was put into her mouth. This would have been impossible in the past.
"Why are you laughing like this?" Bai Meng raised an eyebrow, "It sounds scary."
"No, it's just a bit emotional." Shen Cha shrugged, "It's not like you don't know what Wan Yanxi was like before, right? He is indulgent and arrogant, ignorant of the heights of the world, and self-righteous all day long, as if everyone in the world is in debt. Everyone who belongs to him should give up the throne to him. I wish Wanyan Ping could respectfully hand over the throne to him and kneel on the ground and kowtow to him a hundred times to apologize, so that I can barely comply with his wishes."
"Although I have never seen Wan Yanxi like this, it sounds like something he would do."
"That's not all. You don't know what stupid things he did in Liao Kingdom and Linhuang Mansion before Brother Yelu brought him to the border." When Xue Ruitian mentioned this, he had a look of disgust on his face, and he hooked Bai Meng's Shoulder, complained, "He obviously went to ask Brother Yelu for help and asked them to send troops, but he gave people the feeling that he was the father of Brother Yelu, bossing around. Even Yelu Ertu didn't dare... Oh, I hate to talk to my son and nephew like this."
"This seems to be something he can do. He doesn't know the sufferings of the world and has never experienced the tragic moment when his life hangs by a thread, when the sky is not responding to him, and when the earth and the earth are not working. He will not understand that he will never understand it again. No one can protect him from wind and rain, and no family will clean up the mess for him after he gets into trouble. He can only rely on himself and his own hands to get back what he wants." Bai Meng sighed softly. He said in a tone, "Speaking of which, what's the difference between us and him? Don't we all have to rely on our own struggles to survive? Although there are elders who care about us, but..." He looked at Shen Cha, then at Xue Ruitian and Jin Miaomiao, "You still have to bear what you should bear. No one can help other people, right?"
"It's just that we understood the truth earlier than he did, and we were able to cheer up earlier and stop having those daydreams."
"Speaking of it, sometimes, I still envy Wanyanxi. At least he can grow up without any worries, at least he can still be arrogant and domineering for a few more years, and exercise his privileges as Wanyan's little prince gracefully." Xue Ruitian photographed Patting Bai Meng, he twitched the corner of his mouth towards Shen Cha and Jin Miaomiao, and raised his chin in the direction of Shen Haolin and Song Jue, "And these are things we have never experienced, right?"
"We don't want to experience such an experience." Bai Meng rolled his eyes, "As we are now, there are still people in the court saying that we are arrogant and arrogant, saying that we are arrogant, if we want to be like Wan Yanxi Yes, I’m afraid the collection of books we read every day could fill the imperial study room.”
After hearing Bai Meng's words, several people laughed in unison.
The laughter spread to the front, causing Shen Haolin, Song Jue and others to stop and look back. Seeing that the atmosphere between the few people was relatively harmonious, Song Jue finally let go of his worries.
"Are you still afraid?" Shen Haolin raised his eyebrows at Song Jue with a cold face, "I thought you were so bold and ran from Xijing City to the border without even taking a shadow. Not scared at all!”
"It's not that I'm afraid, I just feel that I don't want to hurt Xiao Baizi. It's not his fault in the first place." Song Jue looked back at Prince Dai, Wu Qingruo and His Highness Prince Ning, who were talking quietly together, and moved closer to Shen Haolin. , "I'm not here in vain. I'm here to sell you a favor. It's inconvenient to mention this in a letter, and it's even more inconvenient to find someone to send the message. It just so happens that the Queen Mother misses Uncle Ning Wang, so I stopped by to tell you. "
"What?"
Song Jue looked around, at the brothers and sisters who were joking behind him, at the three brothers who were catching up with each other after a long absence, cleared his throat, and whispered a few words in Shen Haolin's ear.
Seeing Shen Haolin's expression change, he chuckled and raised his eyebrows at Shen Haolin triumphantly.
"How's it going? Is it big news?"
"Yeah!" Shen Haolin nodded, "But how are you sure it's them?"
"Also, don't worry about this." Song Jue stretched out his finger and pointed quietly in the direction of Prince Dai, "I have checked it with those two people, and also asked Senior Tantai to have a look, and they are all confirmed."
"I was trying to find them, but they came to my door by themselves." Shen Haolin said with a cold face, "This is the best thing, as it saves us the trouble of searching."
"What does this mean?" Song Jue looked surprised and reached out to grab Shen Haolin's sleeve. "You have known about their existence for a long time? When? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
