Pei Yuan saw that Shen Jiahe was still full of resentment, so he coaxed her to disperse her energy: "Uncle and others are going to come to discuss with me, I'm afraid I have to stay here for dinner at noon, if you have nothing to do, you can help me to keep an eye on the people and do things." ”

Not long after Shen Jiahe left, Gonggong Fu came over to report: "Uncle has brought the third young master over, where is the arrangement?" ”

"Take your uncle and let them go to the study first." Pei Yuan said and straightened his robe and walked to the study.

General Shi has a fiery temperament, and as soon as he entered the study, he slapped the book case before Pei Yuan saluted him: "That emperor Lao'er is simply too deceitful." ”

Shi Xiangjie wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly turned around to look outside the door, and saw that it was empty, but he didn't feel at ease, his father was too bold to say.

Pei Yuan knew that he was worried, and said with a smile: "It's okay, there are my secret guards in the dark, and there will never be anyone who listens to the corner." ”

Shi Xiangjie breathed a sigh of relief, and blamed his father a little: "Father, although you are angry with the one above, but this is your cousin's mansion, if this word spreads, won't it be a disaster for your cousin." ”

"I was confused for a moment when I was angry for my father, Pei Yuan ......, "General Shi also knows that he is careless today, but he is angry that the emperor Lao'er has done too much."

"It doesn't matter, uncle, don't blame yourself, there's nothing on the nephew's side, the guards are still doing an excellent job, if you have anything bad to say at home in the future, just come to the nephew, my study is definitely an impermeable wall." How dare Pei Yuan accept General Shi's apology, and hurriedly blocked back with his words.

As soon as the joke was mentioned, General Shi and Shi Xiangjie both relaxed, and Pei Yuan led the two of them to sit separately, and then they talked about business: "Uncle is angry because of the matter of supervising the army." ”

"Yes, it seems that you have also received a holy decree." General Shi clenched his fists, "I don't know much about Yang Shuo, but Xiang Jie knows a little." ”

"Before you came, the little father-in-law who passed the decree only left on the front foot, but he was just a clown jumping off the beam, and my uncle didn't have to pay too much attention to it." Pei Yuan poured tea for the person who came, with a smile on his face, as if he was really not worried about the prison guard.

Shi Xiangjie answered: "But it has always been the king of Hades who is good, and the little ghost is difficult, this Yang Shuo's official position is not high, and he is willing to accept the will of the overseer sent above, in order to go up, and he will definitely do his best to find trouble for us when he falls." ”

"The emperor doesn't trust us, this is a fact that we have known for a long time, but sending such a thing as a prison army is too ignorant of us, and the enemy is still fighting among himself, alas!" General Shi sighed.

Pei Yuan held the teacup in his hand: "Uncle and cousin drink tea." ”

He really didn't care, he slowly tasted it at this time, and praised it: "The tea art is really getting better and better, if you don't go into battle with me to kill the enemy, it's okay to stay at home and be a tea master." ”

Where would General Shi be in the mood to drink tea, he pushed the teacup to the side: "You are not in a hurry at all, not angry at all?" ”

Shi Xiangjie pouted, his cousin has always been like this, and his father still can't get used to it after so many years.

Pei Yuan finally put down the teacup, and explained with a smile to General Shi: "Sending a prison army to us is just an article on the surface, the purpose is just to disgust us, people like Yang Shuo can't do anything big, and when he leaves the capital, it's just a prison army, and how many people can really listen to him." ”

When General Shi heard the other meaning of these words, he was immediately shocked: "You mean that there are still actions made by the emperor in the shadows?" ”

"He won't want me to return to the dynasty with military merits," Pei Yuan raised his hand and swiped his neck, seeing General Shi and Shi Xiangjie's eyes widened, and he was busy reassuring them, "My secret guard has now set off first, even if there is anything, they will not be allowed to succeed, the royal family has always been like this, and I have been in the limelight too much in the past two years, so it is inevitable that he will not make such a move." ”

"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, so my uncle and cousin really don't have to worry, no matter how many people he sends and how many tricks he comes up with, we will deal with it together when the time comes." If it is false to say that they are not angry, what is the use of being angry, their relationship has become so bad that there is no room for relaxation.

After the three of them discussed the route and details of the march, it was already time for lunch, and Pei Yuan naturally wanted to leave the two of them to eat in the mansion: "Jiahe learned that you were coming, so he specially cooked for himself, and his uncle and cousin also had to taste her skills." ”

Since the last time she made a sweet and sour pork rib was praised by Liuyu and Bai Ying, Shen Jiahe has become more and more interested in cooking, and later specially invited another chef to teach her to cook.

Pei Yuan didn't want her to think too much every day about the things on the expedition, and if there was something to pass the time, he was happy to watch her toss.

General Shi looked at the table full of dishes and asked in surprise, "Are they all made by Jiahe?" ”

Shen Jiahe smiled embarrassedly: "How can it, Jiahe only made a few of them, but this sweet and sour pork ribs is made by Jiahe, and my uncle tastes the same flavor as the general's mansion?" ”

General Shi tasted a chopstick, and after swallowing it, the tail of his eyes was a little red: "The cook who used to make this dish has long since returned to the countryside, and I haven't eaten this for a long time." ”

Shen Jiahe knew that he might have remembered his sister, so he smiled and sandwiched some other dishes for him: "In the future, if my uncle wants to eat, he will come to Xianwang's Mansion, or Jiahe will go to the General's Mansion to cook it for you." ”

"Good boy, good boy." General Shi stopped talking, just silently ate the food in the bowl, he was afraid that if he opened his mouth again, his voice would be choked.

After dinner, Shen Jiahe accompanied Pei Yuan to send General Shi and Shi Xiangjie away, and on the way back, Pei Yuan mentioned his considerations for the past two days to Shen Jiahe: "We are almost going to leave in these two days, you take Bai Ying to pack up your things in the afternoon, and I will send you back to the Prime Minister's Mansion before leaving." ”

"Are you afraid that the emperor will use me as a hostage?" Shen Jiahe frowned.

This kind of thing has been seen too much, the general is out on the battlefield, and the relatives and women and children are left in front of the Son of Heaven, the purpose is to fear that they will have a rebellion against the self-respect of the army.

Pei Yuan nodded, with a solemn expression: "There are other people besides the emperor, and there are not a few people in this capital who want to deal with me and want to deal with you." ”

Shen Jiahe pouted: "That's right, you have caused a lot of peach blossom debts outside, what a chaste girl, what a county lord, who saw me didn't want to eat me alive." ”

Pei Yuan shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "When did I go out to get into trouble with peach blossom debts, I can't remember what you said it looks like, I really didn't expect that the princess I married back would be a vinegar spirit." ”

The two had already entered the house, and Shen Jiahe didn't have to worry about someone, she held Pei Yuan's face and looked at him seriously: "Do you regret it?" ”

Pei Yuan couldn't cry or laugh again, lowered his head and touched Shen Jiahe's lips, and rubbed it for a while before he whispered: "It's regret, I regret marrying too late, and I didn't find out your ghostly side earlier." ”

The topic has been taken away, Pei Yuan had to say it again: "In terms of my father-in-law's prestige in the court, the emperor doesn't dare to touch you at will, if the prince or queen intends to deal with you, you should also be afraid of two points, you stay in your mother's house, I can always rest assured, I wanted to stay at home to protect you, but he just wanted to follow him to the battlefield, and I couldn't bear to let him down." ”

"Don't," Shen Jiahe hugged Pei Yuan's waist tightly, "I'm going to guard the Xianwang Mansion for you here and help you take care of our home." ”

Pei Yuan's heart collapsed, it was once just a bed to rest on at night, but now because of Shen Jiahe's joining, it has become a house with a warm home.

"I'll ask Lao Jin to transfer some more people from the Yuan Pavilion here, but you have to promise me, if there is anything ......" Pei Yuan sighed.

Shen Jiahe hurriedly promised: "There will be nothing, if there is really one, I promise that I will definitely go to the Prime Minister's Mansion as soon as possible to hide." ”

Pei Yuan was provoked to laugh again: "You have to do what you say." ”

After coaxing Shen Jiahe to go to lunch, Pei Yuan summoned Liuyu to come forward and ordered: "You can get back the golden silk clothes that were placed in the Yuan Pavilion before." ”

Liuyu nodded: "Liuzhen will be placed in the salute to be taken away." ”

"No," Pei Yuan raised his head to look at him, "Take it to the princess, I don't worry about her staying in the palace alone, you can help me talk to your father again, and let him help me pick two good hands." ”

After Liuyu took the order to leave, Pei Yuan went back to the bedroom, and wanted to rest with the beauty for a while, but saw Shen Jiahe packing up his things: "Why didn't you sleep?" ”

"On weekdays, you don't let the maids into this house, they can't clean up a lot of things, I'm afraid that it will be inconvenient on the road, so I'll clean up again." Shen Jiahe put his clothes on the bed, and was picking up the one that should be brought and the one that should not be brought, "I don't know if it's hot or cold at the border, I look at the clothes of the four seasons, I bring two sets of clothes." ”

Pei Yuan stepped forward and put down the clothes in her hand: "Don't be too nervous, don't you know my ability?" ”

"I didn't ......" Shen Jiahe sighed, but still admitted his thoughts, "Don't be nervous, where can you control yourself, look at that Qin Mu's style is really ruthless, if you are not afraid of the light, you are afraid of the dark, in short, you must be careful in everything." ”

Shen Jiahui looked at Shi Xiangjie, who was studying the topographic map on the side, and felt uncomfortable for a while, but she still fought hard, at least with a smile on her face: "I cooked some barley milk for you, you drink a little." ”

Shi Xiangjie put down the drawings in his hand and took the bowl from Shen Jiahui's hand: "Why do you have to do these yourself." ”

He raised his eyes and looked at the blue and black under Shen Jiahui's eyes, which had been covered with thin powder, but he could still see some, although he didn't say anything on weekdays, but he didn't know her thoughts: "I'm following behind my father, you can rest assured that nothing will happen." ”

"I believe in you." Shen Jiahui was still smiling, "Where can the husband go out, there will be a lady who is not worried." ”

Shi Xiangjie smiled and continued to comfort her, "I will protect myself well, and I promise you that when this battle comes back, I will be by your side honestly." ”

In the early morning of the next day, the emperor shared the news sent from the border with the ministers, but what he didn't expect was that there were still ministers who insisted on persuading peace when the matter happened to this point.

"Your Majesty, if this war can be avoided, then the people of the whole world will sing praises of the emperor's merits." A civil servant bowed to the ground.

The emperor snorted coldly: "If this country changes its surname at that time, I am afraid that the soul of the ancestors of the Pei family will not be able to live in peace if I go down to the underworld." ”

"Your Majesty ......" Although Wenchen was choked up, he still wanted to persuade one or two more.

The emperor looked at it coldly, and impatiently ordered: "Invite Master Li out, I still have important matters to discuss with your family." ”

Seeing that Lord Li was carried out by the palace guards with his arms, the other people who wanted to follow him didn't dare to say anything more at this time, the emperor looked at everything in front of him with satisfaction, and then nodded at Yang Shuo and said: "Lord Yang was appointed as the supervisor of the army this time, and it doesn't make sense to think that General Shi and Prince Xian will come." ”

General Shi and Pei Yuan knew that even if there was no Yang Shuo, the emperor would send someone else to do this position, so they didn't speak, and the emperor looked at Yang Shuo again: "Lord Yang is supervising the army this time, you must always remember your responsibility, no matter what decision General Shi and Pei Yuan make, you must not be lazy to dodge, you must always pay attention to it." ”

"Obey." Yang Shuo replied.

For this kind of singing and harmony before the monarch and minister, Pei Yuan and General Shi just looked at it coldly and didn't take it to heart.
