340 Changes in Yunnan
Feng Jiwen didn't know why, but she also waited quietly for his next words. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Do you still remember the agreement you and I made in the Xiangshan Pavilion last year?"
Hearing him suddenly mention this matter, Feng Jiwen was slightly stunned.
The original promise?
It's nothing more than taking what they need and being a fake couple in name.
She also added at the time - after he has been famous for a long time, the two will reconcile and separate.
Now that I think about it, isn't his current situation already worthy of success?
He was walking so fast on this road in a way she had never expected.
But everything at the moment is also an indisputable fact.
In an instant, Feng Jiwen thought a lot.
During this time, she seems to have subconsciously forgotten a lot of things in the back of her mind-
Now, she also feels that the two of them should have a good talk.
Seeing that An'er in her arms gradually quieted down, lying on her arm and her eyelids were fighting, Feng Jiwen called Xiaoxian who was guarding outside to come in, and took the child back to Mrs. Jia to sleep.
"I remember that. After Xiaoxian left, Feng Jiwen nodded and said.
I heard He Shen ask again: "An aunt came to the father-in-law's house today, but I told my wife something about having children...... Words like that?" and adults plan to start from the side first, so that their daughter-in-law has a deep understanding of the many current 'crises'.
"How did you find out?" Feng Jiwen was a little surprised.
I accidentally listened to a sentence or two. He Shen is particularly candid.
"......" Thinking of her conversation with Aunt Wu today, Feng Jiwen's mood was a little complicated.
Some people have a pair of ears, as if there is nothing they can't hear......
"Presumably Madame has also noticed that many people have begun to feel that there is a problem between you and me, and this is just the beginning of the problem, and after a long time, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to prevaricate. He Shen coughed lightly and said, "In the long run, it's not a solution." β
Feng Jiwen nodded.
She knows it too.
But what does he mean...... Is it a subtle implication that she will prepare the follow-up as soon as possible, so that the 'covenant of reconciliation' can be put on the agenda as soon as possible?
If he really thought so, she wouldn't have anything to say.
Since the two got married, he has put her first in everything, and he is not the one who will take revenge on the person who crossed the river and demolished the bridge, but the existing agreement is in advance, and it is an obligation to fulfill the agreement.
She understands all these truths, but inexplicably, she always feels that she has ...... in her heart It's no wonder it's hard to stab.
What's wrong with this?
Could it be that she forgot it for a while, and she didn't allow others to remind her?
Feng Jiwen, who was completely wrong, complained and reflected on herself, ignored the strange feelings in her heart, and looked at He Shen with some embarrassment.
"I understand what the master meant, but this matter is not something that can be easily solved overnight......" Speaking of this, he was afraid that he felt that he had the intention of 'breaking the contract', so Hao Ran added: "But I just need some time." β
On her grandfather's side, she hadn't figured out her words yet.
After all, it's too fast.
He Shen was stunned by her.
He didn't even get to the point, how did she understand?
It took some time to listen to her again, and He Shen couldn't help but become more and more puzzled.
He vaguely felt that she didn't understand what he meant at all, and that she might have thought of him to the left.
He Shen was about to speak again, but suddenly heard a rapid footstep sound outside.
Immediately afterwards, the voice of the maid came to the ears of the husband and wife through the beaded curtain.
"Uncle's wife, Liu Quan'er is here, saying that someone is coming from the palace, please come to the palace immediately-" It was Xiaoting who passed the word.
Entering the palace?
Why do you invite someone into the palace at this hour?
Feng Jiwen was stunned for a moment, only to see that He Shen had already gotten up from the couch.
"Presumably the emperor has something to summon. When it comes to business, there is a bit of meticulous seriousness in his eyes, but in the face of Feng Jiwen, there is still a gentle smile in his tone: "I'll go and go back, Madam might as well rest early." β
He has business to do, Feng Jiwen nodded to herself, although she couldn't completely come back to her senses from the topic, but she also got up immediately, because Xiaoxian went to send An'er and didn't come back, she personally prepared an official uniform for He Shen to wear.
He Shen was dressed neatly, and before he was about to leave the inner room, he stopped to look back at her, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Instead, he smiled and said, "I haven't finished my words yet, I'm afraid I won't be able to elaborate on it now, but please Madame, remember, don't forget to remind me when you turn around." β
His words were originally a bit of a joke, but when they fell on Feng Jiwen's ears, it seemed to be 'reminding' her and asking her to make plans early.
She nodded, watching his figure disappear from the curtain.
This night, Feng Jiwen stayed awake all night.
She was halfway thinking about how she would deal with her grandfather's interrogation in the future, and how she could minimize the blow to him...... The other half is pondering, and Shen Na ...... Is there someone outside, so I was in a hurry to mention the matter of peace and separation to her.
But there are people or no people, and it doesn't seem to have much to do with her, right?
Feng Jiwen thought indiscriminately, turning over and over, turning over and over overnight, but the strangeness in her heart did not decrease but increased, which made people feel like sleeping pins and needles.
She shouldn't have thought so much, and she didn't know what was wrong with her body from top to bottom?
I don't even understand it.
Feng Jiwen lowered her eyebrows a little worriedly, always feeling that she was going to 'have an accident' this time......
β¦β¦
And on this day, around noon, He Shen was able to return home.
At that time, Feng Jiwen was holding a pen in the study with one hand, and fiddling with the abacus with the other, when she heard the maid coming over to pass the word, she learned that He Shen was back, and explained that she asked the kitchen to prepare lunch, so she put down her pen and came to the basin rack to clean her hands.
Before a pair of hands could be wiped dry, he heard footsteps entering the study, and when he looked up, he saw that it was He Shen.
She was about to go back to her room to see him, but he went to the study to find her first.
"Lord is back. β
"Hmm. He Shen came to the desk, saw the situation on it, and said with a smile: "Madame, even the words on the account are so pleasing to the eye. β
"It's just more than the top and more than the bottom. Feng Jiwen said a word, did not gossip with him, and did not ask about last night, but asked him why he was suddenly summoned by the palace last night, but there was any trouble.
He Shen stood in front of the desk, rubbing his slender fingers back and forth between the handwriting on the ledger for a moment.
After a long while, he spoke.
"In five days, I'm going to leave for Yunnanβ"
Hearing this, Feng Jiwen was surprised.
"Why do you go to Yunnan?"
"Escort soldiers, food, and grass. β
"Is that just that?" is it just a grain and grass escort superintendent, and he can't afford to let him leave the capital on this errand and go to the city.
And she noticed that under He Shen's seemingly normal expression, there was actually a hidden worry.
He Shen looked at her with a smile when he heard this.
Sure enough, I still couldn't hide a pair of eyes from my wife. β
Speaking of this, the smile on his face faded, and then he said: "There is a big incident over there in Yunnan-"
"Something's wrong?"
Feng Jiwen frowned slightly.
There are two battle-hardened generals in Yunnan, Ah Gui and Cheng Yuan, who have won several battles one after another, how could something suddenly happen?
"It's the eighth elder brother - he hid from General A Gui and Cheng Shibo, led troops to attack the Burmese army late at night, and was captured by the other party's main general. He Shen also frowned slightly, and said: "The prince was captured, and the enemy army took this opportunity to talk about the conditions, which is a great shame in ******, and the secret letter just arrived in the palace last night, and the emperor's intention was that this matter must not be publicized, so he ordered me to go to Yunnan to properly handle this matter." β
Hearing that the eighth elder brother was captured, Feng Jiwen was extremely shocked.
Realizing the seriousness of this matter, she couldn't help asking, "What does the emperor think now?"
"The emperor's intention is to bring back the eighth elder brother unscathed, and even more to block the mouths of the Burmese people - more importantly, it must not be allowed to open the mouth of the Burmese lion, which will damage the interests and face of the Qing Dynasty. β
The corners of Feng Jiwen's mouth twitched when she heard this.
Isn't this the legendary 'If the horse runs well, you want the horse not to eat grass'?
No wonder to let He Shen go, it was so tricky.
But...... Regardless of whether He Shen can do the errand as Qianlong wishes, just say that it is still at the time when the two armies are fighting, if they do not agree with each other, the sword is blind, and if there is anyone in the secret to inflict harm, I am afraid that it will be difficult to guarantee even the safety of life.
Isn't that putting your life at risk?
Thinking of this, Feng Jiwen couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart.
She had the heart to ask if she had to go on this trip, but when the words came to her lips, she also felt that she had to ask more, so she had to swallow it back word for word.
He Shen seemed to see her worries, slowed down his tone and said: "As the saying goes, two soldiers don't fight each other, and I am going to negotiate this time, so Madam can rest assured." β
Feng Jiwen could only nod.
He Shen looked at her, with an indescribable hesitation hidden in his eyes.
Although he said the same thing as Feng Jiwen, he knew that he was only afraid of danger in this trip.
Because he knows better than anyone that what the emperor wants, it is far from possible to achieve even one of them with the word negotiation alone.
He still needs to think carefully about how to do it, but when necessary, he is afraid that he will have to take a risky move, more or less, this is inevitable.
Therefore, if the words that could not be uttered in full last night, if we talk about the words clearly, it is not the best time now.
He was even a little glad that he hadn't confessed last night.
Because even if it is only a one-in-a-million possibility, he will never want her to have regrets in the future.
But no matter what, even if it was just to be able to come back to see her safely, he would put his own safety first.
Seeing that Feng Jiwen didn't know what she was thinking, and He Shen was afraid that she would worry more, she staggered the topic-
"Madame, have you heard about Miss Jin Er?"
Feng Jiwen came back to her senses, shook her head and asked, "Is there news coming out from Jingren Palace?"
