31. General Shen Qing
I was relieved to lie behind him, and for a moment, I hoped that this road would allow us to keep going, but the end seemed to be coming soon.
"Stop, who are you?" The barracks were built to look like cottages, and the guards at the gate were dressed as civilians. They were pointing their spears at us, and their vigilance was quite high.
I got down from Yan Xiaoran's body, took out my token and threw it to them: "I want to see your general." ”
One of the guards took the token and looked at it, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly ran in, while the other guard still looked at us very strictly. Not...... No, looking at the hand that Yan Xiaoran and I were holding hands.
I immediately shook off Yan Xiaoran's hand, now that we are all men, no wonder the guards feel strange.
Soon, the guards came over with General Shen. This General Shen's name is Shen Qing, and he is the righteous son of the Shen family, and he has always been my grandfather's right and left hand, so after my grandfather died, I was relieved to hand over part of the army to him. Shen Qing looked very burly, with a thick beard, those eyes were as big as copper bells, and his voice was particularly loud.
"I don't know if Your Majesty is far away, Shen Qing is far away." Shen Qing bowed to me without much courtesy.
I raised my eyebrows, Shen Qing has been stocked for so long, and it has begun to swell. I guess that when Yan Xiaoran and I started walking from dismounting, they already knew that we were coming. "In terms of relationship, General Shen can also be regarded as my uncle. When I came, I was not notified, and those who did not know were not guilty. "Anyway, let's take a closer call.
Shen Qing heard me call his uncle, and he didn't know whether he was happy or unhappy, he waved his hand: "Your Majesty, please." ”
Yan Xiaoran and I were about to go in, and Shen Qing also noticed Yan Xiaoran: "Who is this son?" ”
"He's my best friend." I tugged at the corners of my mouth: "General Shen, please rest assured." ”
When I entered the camp, I realized that the place was really big. Shen Qing led us through the front yard, and when we arrived in the backyard, we could meet soldiers who were practicing along the way, and when they saw Shen Qing coming, they shouted loudly: "General Shen." "Shen Qing has a lot of prestige among the soldiers.
I think that Yan Xiaoran is right, at this time, if I succeed in making Shen Qing and these soldiers loyal to me, it will be a great help.
"Your Majesty, please." Shen Qing invited us into the house and asked the attendant to bring tea over.
Yan Xiaoran and I sat down, Shen Qing also sat across from us, and the attendant quickly brought the tea. "In the remote mountains and mountains, there is no good tea to entertain Your Majesty."
I didn't care: "General Shen doesn't have to be polite. ”
He looked at me and sighed: "I didn't expect Your Majesty to be so old now, I still remember that when I first saw you, you were only a little big, and you really looked like your mother." ”
I am secretly happy in my heart, and being able to recall the past means that there is a play. "General Shen, the Queen Mother handed over the Tiger Talisman to me, and I hope you can help me." I spoke straight up.
Shen Qing's expression suddenly became unfathomable: "Your Majesty, I, Shen Qing, have been here with Shen Jiajun for more than ten years, and now you let us submit to you, I'm afraid we won't be able to convince the public." ”
After my grandfather's death, the tiger talisman was handed over to the queen mother, and it has been more than ten years. I looked at Shen Qing with pity: "Thank you for your hard work." ”
Shen Qing: "...... What kind of expression is this? ”
Yan Xiaoran coughed lightly, I immediately put away my expression, and said very seriously: "General Shen thinks, how can I convince you?" ”
Shen Qing didn't answer my words, but asked me: "Your Majesty came here this time, and you didn't bring a single soldier with you, do you just believe that you will retreat with your whole body?" ”
I also thought about this problem, Yan Xiaoran also asked me to bring some secret guards at the beginning, but I vetoed them. There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people. Since I have come to conquer them, if I still bring troops to defend against them, I am afraid that even if I succeed in the end, it will make Shen Qing feel guilty. Of course, there is another important reason.
"Because your surname is Shen, and you were brought up by your grandfather, I believe you won't."
"How not?" Shen Qing laughed loudly: "Isn't your uncle Shen Jinzhong doing it?" ”
Me: "......" This Shen Qing will really slap me in the face.
Shen Qing got up and looked at me condescendingly: "Okay, I think Your Majesty is tired from going up the mountain just now, so it's better to rest in the camp for the night first." If you want us to be truly obedient, you have to defeat us, do you dare? ”
I swallowed: "Why don't you dare?" ”
"Courageous." Shen Qing left with a laugh, and said as he walked: "I asked the soldiers to prepare a room for you, and you can rest here first." ”
After Shen Qing left, after I confirmed that no one was monitoring and eavesdropping, I exhaled deeply, and the whole person fell into Yan Xiaoran's arms: "I'm scared to death, if he really turns his face, I really don't know how to get out." From the beginning, Yan Xiaoran has not spoken, as if she has become invisible. I wondered, "Why didn't you just speak?" ”
Yan Xiaoran pinched my cheek: "Gu Shu, this is your stage, I have no intention of stealing your style, I just showed a good appearance." ”
I smirked, "It's good to have you." ”
"Shen Qing won't turn his face with you." Yan Xiaoran hooked her lips: "Does he like your queen mother?" ”
I nodded sharply, "You see that?" "This is an important reason why I dared to come here without a secret guard. Shen Qing likes my mother, since she was a child.
When Shen Qing looked at you, his expression was always fluttering, as if he wanted to look at another person through you. When he mentioned your mother, his eyes suddenly softened. When a man likes a woman, he will have such a look. ”
I rubbed my chin: "Why didn't I find out?" I sat up straight, pulled Yan Xiaoran's head, and stared at his eyes for a long time: "Yan Xiaoran, your eyes are not soft, don't you like me?" ”
Yan Xiaoran took my hand away: "Stupid, there is a saying that the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear." ”
I whispered: "I heard that Shen Qing has liked my mother since she was a child, but my mother likes an elegant man like my father. The queen mother married her father and queen, but Shen Qing still did not marry a wife, and she has not married until now. "When it comes to infatuation, Shen Qing should be the first. It's a pity that the falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless.
Shen Qing arranged two rooms for us, which were the best two in the entire barracks. Yan Xiaoran looked at the two rooms that were far apart, and her face suddenly darkened by half. I didn't care, after thanking Shen Qing, I was ready to go into the house to rest.
Shen Qing said: "I'll send someone to bring you over for dinner, Your Majesty, have you thought about accepting the challenge?" ”
I bowed my head: "Since I am here, I am ready, General Shen does not need to worry too much, I will use my strength to prove that I am worthy of your loyalty." ”
Shen Qing laughed: "Okay, Your Majesty has the demeanor of an old general." ”
Shen Qing is gone, Yan Xiaoran is not there, it is rare to be quiet, I still want to rest for a while, and the door is knocked. I still thought it was Shen Qing who had something to tell me, but it turned out to be not.
The one who knocked on the door was a little maid, holding a tray: "Childe, the general asked the slave maid to bring you dinner." ”
I turned sideways and let the little maid in. The little maid set up all the dishes and chopsticks for me, and stood aside with a tray in a proper manner. I waved my robe and sat down: "I don't need to serve here, you can go down." ”
The little maid shook her head: "The general said, you must serve a good son." She said, picked up the flask and poured me a glass of wine: "Childe, please, this is the wine brewed in the camp, you must not have tasted it." ”
I thought about it, took a sip, and the mellow taste was suddenly full of snort, with a little peach blossom flavor. "Good wine."
The little maid seemed very happy to see me praising me: "If the son likes it, drink more." As he spoke, he filled me up again.
After three rounds of drinking, I was full of food and drink, and I had a full burp. When I got up, the wine came up and rushed straight to my head, my eyes were glazed, and I couldn't stand steadily.
The little maid immediately supported me: "Be careful, the slave will help you to bed." ”
The wine seems to be nothing at first, but it is full of strength at the end. I felt like I was floating in mid-air, walking with clouds under my feet, soft.
I was stuck on the bed, and my mind was much lighter. I saw the little maid blushing and looking at me shyly: "Son, you need a slave...... Waiting for ......"
I was in a trance, as if I saw Yan Xiaoran talking to me like this, it was rare to see him talking to me so shyly, I couldn't help but tease: "Come here, let me take a good look, uncle." As I spoke, I also reached out and touched his chest, I wanted to take off his fake breast, but the feeling of touching my hand was surprisingly soft.
That's not right...... My mind was excited, and I sat up abruptly, looking at the little girl in front of me, whose face was already red.
The little maid's delicate little face was stained with tears, and she looked shy and aggrieved: "Childe, the slave just wants to ask you, do you want the slave to help you change your clothes, how do you ...... How...... Whining...... Slave and maid, I'm sorry Brother Niu. ”
Me: "......" I scratched my head: "What, I didn't mean to...... Why don't I touch it back for you? "The little girl cried so much that it rained, as if I really had done something to her.
Hearing my words, she cried even harder, stomped her little feet, covered her face and ran out.
I want to cry too, okay!
"Gu Shu, I'm not here, you're merry?" Yan Xiaoran didn't know where to run from: "It's wine and meat, and there's a little maid who waits." ”
He stood beside my bed, and the shadow of his whole person hung over me. I reached out and wrapped my arms around his waist, sniffed the familiar smell on his body, and rubbed it in his arms: "It's all your fault." ”
Yan Xiaoran hugged me back and replied expressionlessly: "Oh, blame me again." ”
I muttered, "Who made you appear in front of my eyes no matter if you were there or not, and I was upset and recognized the wrong person, who do you blame if you don't blame?" ”
Yan Xiaoran chuckled: "Your Majesty, if you want to add to the crime, why bother?" ”
I smoked slightly, patted the empty seat next to me and said, "Hmph, it's going to cure your sins, and I want to punish you for warming my bed." ”
Yan Xiaoran bullied over: "Not only do we have to warm the bed, but also do something else, and we made a bet before......"
"Hmm...... bastard!
