CHAPTER XIV
Su Jie enjoys such a family life together. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info In her previous life, she married Li Lingwei, although there were gifts from her mother's family to Jingren Palace during the New Year's holidays, they were all carefully selected, but after all, it was just to see things and think about people!
Separated by a high palace wall, and more monarchs and ministers, it is not so easy to see each other on weekdays, only the New Year's Festival, birthday banquet, and the woman can see each other when she enters the palace to bow and bow, but there are many people and rules, and they can't say a few words of self-consideration, let alone sit in one place and talk and laugh, and they are happy!
And Su Jie remembered that in her previous life, this was the last reunion year she spent at home before she got married, not because she was going to get married in the second year, but because the second year was not a happy year!
There was a great drought in the northwest, the pasture was not abundant, and the winter came very early, and a large number of Turkic cattle and sheep starved to death and froze to death, so they repeatedly invaded the border and snatched food in order to survive.
Originally, those Turkic robbers were just planning to rob things to live a peaceful winter, and they only needed to be suppressed by the soldiers on the border, and they couldn't alarm the capital, let alone a big deal!
But Taiyuan Taishou Zhang Tianshan is mediocre, colluding with the military attache on weekdays, only knowing how to loot the people's fat and ointment, and have fun, under his influence and leadership, Taiyuan's border guards are all useless, and they only know that they are full of wine and food every day, and they don't know what the march and war are!
The garrison of Taiyuan was already crushed before the Turks could fight! The Turks tasted the sweetness, so they didn't restrain themselves, and simply gathered their men and horses to enter Shanxi! Attempts to loot more property.
is a straw bag like Zhang Tianshan, once the battle starts, not only will he be defeated and retreated, but he even has the audacity to lie about the military situation, the Turks were originally less than 50,000 horses, and he was forced to say that he was an army of 100,000!
Everyone in the imperial city is in danger, people are panicking, there are 800 miles of urgent bad news every day, the war situation is urgent, the emperor has no one available, can only temporarily seal Su Lin as the general of the town army, lead 50,000 troops to Shanxi, leave at the beginning of November, come back in the spring of the next year, and the year will not be able to spend in the house.
Su Jie remembered that at that time she was not married, and she stayed in the Guogong Mansion all day long, and she didn't know what was going on in the previous dynasty, let alone what the war situation in Taiyuan was.
In this life, she will not let herself go the old way of her previous life to marry Li Ling, but she can't stop the drought in the northwest, can't stop the Turkic attack, and even thinks that the Battle of Taiyuan will be an excellent opportunity to accumulate military merits!
After all, Mrs. Tai is old, and she can't survive the juniors, so she said that she would keep the New Year together, but she couldn't hold it for a moment just after the morning, so she went back to the room first with her daughter-in-law.
As soon as the two left, Su Yuanzhen couldn't sit still, for fear that he would stay here and restrain the juniors, and then spoil the atmosphere of the New Year.
"I still have something to deal with, so I won't accompany you brothers and sisters to keep the New Year, eat less, and don't stay up too late!"
I found an excuse to leave, and I didn't forget to tell you. Su Jie and her brother Su Lin got up and gave a gift to send their father away.
There weren't many members of the family, and most of them left at once, and they were not in the mood to keep the New Year, so the brother and sister talked for a while and went back to the house.
In Qingzhi Garden, the maids rarely have a day of leisure, gathering together in the backyard room to chat with melon seeds, and there are four people sitting at a table to play cards, but it is also lively! It's just that in this way, the front yard is empty, and it inevitably looks a little dead and lonely.
Except for the two rows of red lanterns hanging on the verandah, there is no joy in the New Year.
"Does Mademoiselle want to sit for a while or do you want to sleep? The old slave went and called the maid on duty! ”
Mama Liu also felt a little desolate, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Su Jie shook her head and stopped her.
It turned out that she also let people go on a half-day holiday, and this time she was probably having fun, didn't Mama Liu go to call it to sweep everyone's interest?
After all, today's New Year, the family should be reunited for Chinese New Year's Eve, and the maids can't go home to reunite with their relatives, so it's good to let them get together and have some fun!
"Today is the New Year's Eve, I'll read a book in the house for a while, and Mama will go and make a pot for me!"
"It's not easy to fall asleep drinking tea at night, Miss hasn't been sleeping very well recently, the slave looks a little greasy when she sees the Chinese New Year's Eve meal, why don't you change it to oil-free fruit tea?" It's sweet and sour, but it's also refreshing! ”
Mama Liu grew up serving her since she was a child, and she is also very particular about eating, everything is based on health, Su Jie thought about it, fruit tea is not impossible, so she nodded.
Mama Liu went to the tea room, and there was only one twilight snow waiting for Su Jie, and as soon as she sat down on the Luohan bed by the window, she heard a dull "dong dong" sound, and couldn't help but prick up her ears to listen carefully.
Turning his gaze to Twilight, who was walking towards him with a book in his hand, Twilight had apparently heard the strange noise, and her steps were much lighter, and she pricked up her ears to listen to the sound.
Knock three times and stop for a while, knock three times and stop for a while, it's quite rhythmic!
It seemed that someone was knocking on the window, and the master and servant couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, who would it be at this time?
Su Jie pointed to the small window, then knelt down and sat up, and without waiting for Twilight to come, she reached out and pushed the window open.
She's bold!
I wanted to see who was pretending to be a ghost outside the window, but I was startled by the sudden appearance of a head.
The body was startled, and he didn't kneel down, so he fell to the side, and after Twilight saw it, she was shocked and hurriedly trotted over, but she was still a step slower, and the person outside the window had already reached out and grabbed Su Jie's arm when she saw this, so that she could stabilize her body and avoid a fall!
Su Jie is not fat, but her hands are soft and boneless, and she is like grabbing a handful of cotton in her hands, which is very comfortable.
Jiang Yi was still a little reluctant, but Su Jie had already pulled out her hand.
After a while, he looked at Jiang Yi standing outside the window while being afraid, and he was annoyed and angry.
"Bold!" Dare to break into the backyard of the Guogong Mansion at night! also pulled her jade hand!
