Shen Jinyan interjected with a smile: "I went to the border army with my eldest brother that day. When the generals in the army saw their eldest brother, their faces were not very good-looking. probably thinks that the eldest brother's face is tender and incompetent. Later, when I saw the power of my eldest brother, I was convinced and obeyed my eldest brother's words. ”

Gu Jinxing said modestly: "How can you say such an exaggeration. ”

"I was young and knowledgeable, and everything I learned on paper was nothing but a battle. It is inevitable that the generals in the army will have doubts about me. It has been more than a year before I have been accepted and recognized as the main general. ”

"Compared to my father and second uncle, I am still far behind. ”

Still so modest and cautious.

It's still the familiar Gu Jinxing.

A warm smile appeared in Gu Wanning's eyes: "My own brother and sister are talking, why should the eldest brother be so humble." After this battle, the eldest brother moved the world and was already a well-deserved commander of the border army. It's me, the queen of the middle palace, who is also stained with the light of my eldest brother, and my momentum is even stronger than before. ”

The last sentence is obviously a joke.

Gu Jinxing raised his eyebrows and smiled confidently: "Second sister, don't worry, the eldest brother will always be your most solid backing and reliance when he sits at the border in the future." ”

Gu Wanning's heart was hot.

In her previous life, although she was in power, her mother's family had withered. The son and her are not intimate. No matter how many people there are around, there is also a sense of loneliness and loneliness.

In this life, she is accompanied by her beloved husband, four children, and her mother's family who stands firmly behind her...... God is kind to her.

Shen Jinyan was not to be outdone, and immediately opened his mouth and said: "Sister, I am also your backing and dependence." ”

Gu Wanning's eyes glowed with warm water, and a happy smile rose on his lips: "Okay." ”

Gu Jinxing and Shen Jinyan looked at each other and smiled.

……

The relationship between the two of them is complex and delicate.

Back then, Gu Jinxing was the eldest son of the eldest house, and Shen Jinyan was the second son-in-law. In terms of identity and status in the house, Gu Jinxing is naturally inferior to Shen Jinyan. On weekdays, he has a lot of concessions to Shen Jin.

If it weren't for Shen Jinyan's life experience being exposed, today's Dingbei Hou Shizi's border army commander would not have been Gu Jinxing's turn at all.

The world is impermanent. Now it is Gu Jinxing who is in great glory, and Shen Jinyan wants to appear in front of the world in a dignified manner, which is an extravagant hope. This time, he insisted on going to the border army, not only to contribute to Daqin, but also to gain a foothold with military merits.

Fortunately, God treated him well and made him get his wish.

For more than a year in the border army, they worked together to repel the enemy army. The estrangement between them has long since dissolved, they are not brothers, but their feelings are as close as brothers.

Gu Wanning saw it in his eyes, and he was also very pleased: "I'll lead the two of you to Cining Palace together! ”

The two responded in unison.

……

Empress Dowager Min is known for her gentle and good temperament, and she never puts the Empress Dowager on the shelf.

Seeing Gu Jinxing and Shen Jinyan, Empress Dowager Min was even more kind and cordial. was full of praise, and Gu Jinxingjun's face was flushed, and he didn't dare to say.

Empress Dowager Min was still unsatisfied, and praised Shen Jinyan again: "Jinyan is also good." Fortunately, you led a group of military doctors in the border army, who were not afraid of danger and developed a prescription for the plague. Otherwise, I don't know how many people will die in the army. ”

Shen Jinyan's handsome face was also red: "I don't dare to be the queen mother's praise, this is my business." ”

Empress Dowager Min smiled: "No matter what, the great credit for this day is yours." The emperor can reward you generously. ”

Shen Jinyan replied: "The emperor has been rewarded today. From today onwards, I will be a serious five-grade official, commanding all the military doctors in the army. ”

When he said this, Shen Jinyan's waist was straight.

This official body was born and died by himself, which gave him incomparable confidence and confidence.

Gu Wan stared at Shen Jinyan quietly, and the pride of being the eldest sister welled up in his heart.

Gu Jinxing returned to his heart like an arrow, and after meeting the Empress Dowager Min, he opened his mouth to leave.

Empress Dowager Min was quite understanding: "Since you entered Beijing, you haven't returned home. I want to come to Dingbei Houfu, and everyone is waiting for you to go back. You can leave the palace at this time, and you can go to the Hou Mansion before dark. ”

Gu Jinxing thanked for the grace and left.

Shen Jinyan's gaze followed behind Gu Jinxing, revealing a gloom in his eyes.

No matter how much credit he makes, he will not be able to step into the Dingbei Hou Mansion......

Gu Wanning's voice sounded in his ears: "Ah Yan, come back to the Jiaofang Hall with me!" I have ordered someone to clean up the guest room, and you will stay in the Jiaofang Hall tonight." ”

Shen Jinyan quickly came back to his senses and smiled at Gu Wanning: "Okay." ”

In this world, Gu Wanning is his only remaining relative, and he is also the person who loves and cares for him the most. Where she is, is his home.

……

Unitary time is positive.

The Dingbei Hou Mansion opened the main gate.

All the Gu family, led by Mrs. Tai, stood at the door. Wu, Fang, Gu, and ...... Even Brother Sheng, the youngest, and Brother Xi, who is in the third room, were also brought out.

The stewards of the Gu family and the generals who stayed in the mansion were also waiting at the door.

Here they waited for Gu Jinxing, who returned from victory.

The two-year-old Brother Sheng asked his mother in a milky voice: "Mother, what does Dad look like?"

Cui Junyao suppressed the excitement and urgency in her heart, and laughed in a low voice: "Your father will come back later." You'll know it when you see it with your own eyes. ”

Brother Sheng grinned. After a while, he said to himself, "When Dad comes back, we can eat." I was so hungry that I couldn't speak. ”

The crowd was amused by his fairy tales.

Mrs. Tai looked at her with loving eyes: "Cui's, Brother Sheng'er is hungry, you first carry him into the house and feed him some snacks." Don't starve your child. ”

Cui Junyao said, "Wait a little longer!"

She didn't want Brother Sheng to miss the moment when her father returned.

Mrs. Tai smiled dumbly and said no more.

The sound of horses' hooves reached everyone's ears from far to near.

It was Gu Jinxing who led the Gu family's generals back!

Everyone's expressions became excited, and their eyes looked at each other.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, dozens of horses galloped in. The young man at the head was dressed in shining armor and a cloak fluttering in the wind. The gorgeous sunset in the sky seemed to fall on him.

Wu wept bitterly.

Cui Junyao burst into tears.

Mrs. Tai's nose was also sour. Fortunately, she has great self-control and still looks calm.

Ten meters away, Gu Jinxing tightened the reins, and the horse stopped under his crotch. Dozens of horses came to a halt. All the families will dismount with Gu Jinxing.

Gu Jinxing's eyes were full of excitement, and he strode up to Mrs. Tai and knelt down with a plop.

"The grandson lived up to his grandmother's high expectations, repelled the enemy army, recovered the border pass, and returned today. ”

Mrs. Tai's eyes were shining, her throat was choked, and she reached out to caress Gu Jinxing's face: "Good boy, it's good to come back." ”
