The sunset was like blood, and in the Xiaoyu Camp school field on the outskirts of Beijing, 10,000 soldiers were practicing shirtless in the cold wind.

With every move and style, with the maximum power of the muscles, the Dao Illusory Shadow was drawn in the setting sun, and even the cold wind was slashed in the void.

On the lookout, the black-clothed young man stood by the wind, the blood-like remnant sun exuding afterglow behind him, and the young man's condensed eyebrows were a little blurred in the backlight.

His eyes were deep and distant, and he watched every move in the school yard as sharp as an eagle, and his expression became more and more cold as frost.

"Shizi, the person you instructed to find has news." Xu Ping's breath was a little chaotic, and he quickly climbed up to the lookout to report.

When Su Zhaoheng heard this, he retracted his gaze from afar and fell on the subordinates who came over.

Xu Ping was swept by his gaze, and said, "It has been carefully checked, and there will be no mistakes." And according to the orders of the prince, he has secretly followed. ”

After a few twists and turns, I finally found it...

Will she be happy when she learns?

Su Zhaoheng's frightened and crying face flashed in his mind, and the corner of his heart as hard as a boulder collapsed, and there was a complicated heaviness at the bottom of his eyes.

The emotion was as fast as lightning, just for a moment, and the deep eyes were like ancient wells without waves.

Su Zhaoheng turned around and wanted to step down from the lookout.

Xu An, who was behind him, hurriedly said: "Shizi, where are you going, Master Hou asked you to wait for him to come back in the army." ”

Xu An's tone was a little anxious.

Why didn't he know that Xu Ping had an errand to find people these days.

was blocked, Su Zhaoheng's hand seemed to unconsciously press on the handle of the knife, and his face sank.

Su Zhaoheng's movements froze, Xu An stepped forward from behind, and said: "Shizi, and it's getting late now, it's ...... out of the camp."

"Xu An, what I said a few days ago, you haven't understood it yet?" Su Zhaoheng's thumb rubbed against the hilt of the knife, and his calm eyebrows were like the sharpest sharp knife. "As my personal guard, I have to do my duty."

"And this duty includes obedience and loyalty!"

While Su Zhaoheng was talking, his fingers pushed the saber out of the sheath, and when the word loyalty fell, he pressed the blade back into the sheath again.

The crisp sound of impact carried a solemn aura, so sharp that it made people's scalps tingle.

Xu Anxin was shocked, and the sound of the impact of the blade was still in his ears, and he was shocked into a cold sweat by this ordinary but seemingly meaningful words.

"Shizi, I ......" Xu An was stunned for a long time before he remembered to confess, but after contacting the other party's gaze, he was so weak that he didn't dare to look at him.

Su Zhaoheng looked at Xu An, who bowed his head, and said again: "Especially now that you are the captain of the Red Eagle Guard, you must be more aware of your duty!" ”

Another extremely harsh sentence, Xu An couldn't stand anymore at this moment, and hurriedly knelt down.

At this time, he saw Su Zhaoheng's thumb holding the handle of the knife, and he felt an extreme fear in his heart.

Su Zhaoheng looked like that, it seemed that as long as he dared to say one more word, the knife would be carved across his neck!

Cold sweat, under the condescending gaze of the teenager, slid down the contours of the face.

Xu An didn't dare to say anything more, but just put his posture to the lowest, suppressed the panic in his heart, and tightened the expression on his face.

The evening breeze blew, the last rays of the setting sun sank, and the whole sky suddenly went dark.

The soap-colored boots in front of Xu An finally moved.

The black robe with silver dark stripes flew in front of him, and Yang rose and fell, and the silver was like a sharp blade in the dark night.

As the footsteps faded away, Xu An still had the silver light in front of him, and after a long time, he sat down on the lookout as if he had lost his strength. The whole person was as if he had been scooped up in water.

Su Zhaoheng left the lookout and rode out of the camp, his figure blending into the darkness in the dust splashed by the horses' hooves.

***

Wusu Marquis Mansion, Ci'an Courtyard upper room.

It was dinner time, and Xia stood at the table of the Eight Immortals and instructed the maid to set the meal.

Old Madam Su sat down with the support of Mrs. Su and Mrs. Wu.

"Why did the Hou Ye go back to the barracks without even having dinner, and Rui Qi didn't see him go home." Old Madam Su glanced at the people in the room and asked.

Rui Qi is the name of Su San, and Xia's eyes flashed when she listened, just as dazzling as the tassel she hung down on the side.

"The next person came to practice in the army today, and the Hou Ye wanted to go back and stare at it, but the third uncle's daughter-in-law didn't know. Why didn't the third uncle send someone to talk to the third brother and sister? ”

As soon as Xia's voice fell, Wu's face, who was still standing on Old Madam Su's body, was a little embarrassed, and he immediately laughed again.

Wu's father is the governor of Jiangnan, and Wu is a serious Jiangnan man, even if he has children now, he is still as delicate and moving as a girl's family in every move.

"The husband only said that he went to the Zhenguo General's Mansion with the Hou Ye to thank Mrs. Chen for the prescription, but I really don't know the rest. Speaking of this, Hou Ye is extremely filial to his mother, and he deliberately took time out of his busy schedule to go to Chen's house. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xia's face also changed.

What is the time out of his busy schedule, he praised Marquis Wu Su on the surface, but secretly belittled her.

It's as if she is not filial and respectful to her mother-in-law, and this kind of thank-you thing in the inner house has been done by her husband.

Mrs. Su's lips have always been slightly raised, "You are all very filial, and my wife knows it." It's time to sit down and eat, it's going to be cold in a while. ”

Old Madam Su stopped the topic, and Xia Shi couldn't refute it, otherwise she would have to look small-bellied, so she had to sit down with annoyance. The juniors then sat down and had a very dull dinner.

At the time of the night, Master Su San returned home.

Wu had washed up, put on a casual homely jacket, and was embroidering the upper of his shoes by candlelight.

Su Sanye pushed the door into the house, and saw that his wife's beautiful face was reflected as flawless as beautiful jade by the candle flame, and the grim look on his face eased a little.

Hearing the movement, Wu raised his head, then put the upper of his shoe aside and stepped forward to serve his husband.

"Why is it so late, my mother asked you why you didn't come home at night." Following Su Sanye to the inner room, Wu asked when he changed his clothes.

Su Sanye's deep eyes flashed, and then his face was happy. "After I came out of the Zhenguo General's Mansion today, I wanted to go back to the Yamen, but I happened to meet Lin Shangshu on the way, and after greeting each other, I learned that he also went to the Zhenguo General's Mansion today. But we're staggered. ”

Wu Shi heard the excitement suppressed by his husband's tone, and couldn't help but ask again: "Has that master been talking to Lin Shangshu about the present?" ”

"Well, my mother asked me to send medicine to remove the scar, doesn't it also mean to be good friends with the Lin Mansion? Talking to Lin Shangshu again today, I saw that he couldn't hide the joy between his eyebrows, and asked casually.

"Guess what, it's the Lin family and the Chen family that coincide."

Wu was a little surprised, and after a moment's pause, he asked, "Is it okay to coincide?" Isn't Old Madam Chen so tired of Lin Shangshu that she has helped the main room now? ”

The rift between the Lin family and the Chen family is well known to the nobles in Beijing, so the two families have always been at peace on the surface, but they have not been close for a long time.

Master Su San buttoned his placket and nodded, his eyes were deep: "Yes, Lin Shangshu has revealed the matter of his son-in-law and daughter-in-law's return to the house." You think that the Chen family has been holding on to the Lin family brothers and sisters all these years, isn't it just to make Lin Shangshu ugly, but now that he is willing to let go, Lin Shangshu is still full of joy when he talks about it. This room must have eliminated the suspicion with the General's Mansion. ”

Master Su San said, and showed a meaningful smile with his wife. "Mother seems to be very happy with Miss Lin San, and Kite also said in front of me that day, and I want her to be a guest again......"

Wu pondered his husband's expression, and then came to his senses, with surprise in his eyes, but a smile on his face: "Then I will invite Mrs. Lin to come to the mansion to sit in a few days." ”

His wife's intelligence, Master Su San nodded with satisfaction.

Wu smiled again and ordered the preparation of water, and from time to time, Ben waited for the maids in the house to retreat with a red face, closed the door and guarded it from afar......
