Shang Cheng, who was furious, slammed the door and left, and the party naturally broke up unhappily.

Chen Pu casually dropped two polite words, pulled Tian Xiu and went downstairs. For Shang Cheng's words just now, she felt that she seemed to have some insights, but these insights were all flash of inspiration, they came and went quickly, and they couldn't grasp it, so she was so anxious that she couldn't wait to grab Shang Cheng and say it again, and then let him chew up all the truths in it and crush it, and tell her one by one!

She dragged Tian Xiu and hurriedly ran to the bottom of the Linyuan attic, standing on the stone steps in front of the building and looking around. At this time, the first watch is the beginning of the second watch, it is the most lively time in the market, many juggling troupes block the street and cut out a circle to perform acrobatics, attracting tourists to stop and watch, from time to time burst out a sky-high cheer; The hawkers are selling dim sum, sweets, mash, and wine along the street, singing and shouting, high and low, one after another, interspersed with the silk and bamboo sound of the wine shop and the tactful singing of the singer and the dancer; On the opposite side of the diagonal street, I don't know which big shop has a happy event, the big archway with a height of the foot is set up in front of the door, the actor wears colorful eye-piercing clothes, wears a hideous or kind or handsome or ugly paper face, and dances the puppet show "Mulian Saves the Mother" with the sonorous gongs and drums, attracting hundreds of people to surround the archway...... The light and shadow in the near area are staggered, people come and go, the lights are bright and bright in the distance, and there are crowding heads everywhere, where is the figure of Shang Cheng? Chen Pu was so anxious that he stomped his feet! But there is no way to do it. She can't chase after her to Ying County's Mansion, right?

She sprinkled all her resentment on Tian Xiu. She complained to Tian Xiu and said, "Look, it's all your fault!" If I wasn't dragged down by you, I would definitely be able to catch Shang Yanshan! ”

Tian Xiu didn't want to distinguish with Chen Pu. Her face was not very good, and she was still very pale. For her, the scene that happened in the private room was so intense that she couldn't react in a hurry. Of course, Shang Cheng's expression after taking off the blindfold was really terrifying. Until now, she didn't dare to think about it. But the more she tried to teach herself not to think, her mind turned to that scene, and then she felt cold hands and stiff feet. Even when she heard Chen Pu mention the words "Shang Yanshan", she couldn't help but shiver.

She didn't make a sound, silently followed Chen Pu on the horse, and looked back without saying a word. When she arrived at the princess's mansion in Nanyang, she thought that Chen Pu would go back to her princess's mansion. But Chen Pu also dismounted with her, threw the whip to the personal guard, and said, "I'll stay here tonight." ”

Tian Xiu was silent. She didn't have the heart to care where Gu Chen Pu rested at night now. She didn't even pay attention to what Chen Pu said.

She returned to her bedroom, took off her head, changed into her official robe, took off her official boots, and washed her face and hands in the hot hands called by the maid. She did all this out of a habit she had cultivated over a long period of time. Her hands and feet were moving, but her mind was not on the things in front of her. After washing her face and hands, and then changing into the usual clothes of the home, she sat down at the table and began to be in a daze.

What happened in the restaurant not long ago was so shocking that she still hasn't been able to calm down......

Speaking of which, this is not the first time she has seen Shang Cheng take off his blindfold. The year before last, around this time, she met Shang Cheng in Shangjing. At that time, Shang Cheng also rescued her once. In order to save her, Shang Cheng let go of a female bandit. She could no longer remember the face and name of the bandit; I only remember that the woman's voice was excellent, and her voice seemed to be able to pierce the clouds and crack the stones. She remembered that when she faced the female bandit that night, Shang Cheng took off her blindfold, which made the female bandit tremble with horror, and she couldn't even grasp the paper cutter against her neck; But she didn't think Shang Cheng was anything to be afraid of. At the end of last year, at the princess's mansion in Nanyang, she accompanied Mr. Dingyi to meet Shang Cheng. At the banquet that night, Shang Cheng drank too much, and when she looked up to the sky, when the wine was hot, Shang Cheng also took off her blindfold, but she still didn't feel any fear. Now that we have known each other, we have gradually had some contact. As she came to work in the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Industry successively burned glass and coke under Shang Cheng's suggestion, and because of official reasons, she and Shang Cheng gradually became familiar with each other, and of course she didn't think that Shang Cheng had anything worthy of awe.

In her impression, Shang Cheng is a very inexplicable person. The origin is inexplicable, anyone can know that his resume is forged at a glance, but no one pays attention to it and investigates it; The promotion was inexplicable, and he neither won nor lost any battles, and then he was awarded the title of Pillar State and was actually named the county uncle; The position is also inexplicable, neither a clan nor a wealthy family, but he actually became the deputy commander of the Plains General's Mansion; Knowledge is even more inexplicable, there is basically nothing he doesn't know about the water that flies in the sky and the ground, and he picks it out casually, and he can say a truth casually, and he can even pull things on the sun and moon, and a set of insights are brought out, and he was cited as a confidant by Mr. Dingyi...... By the way, this person can also note "Tianwen" and is also good at calligraphy...... Yes, he is also good at the art of war, Chen Pu and Shangguan Rui are like children who have learned in front of him, all of them are "bullshit and don't understand"; The two Zhuguo were scolded by him so much that they didn't dare to defend themselves, obviously this person's temper was not ordinary and irritable, which was more in line with her impression of Shang Cheng. Who doesn't know that Uncle Ying is as bad as a fire? After all, he is a character who dares to fight with Yang Du and Gu Shi at the same time in the Zichen Palace, if he doesn't have a bad temper, can he provoke the two Shangzhu Kingdom in that place and on that occasion?

She was thinking wildly, when she suddenly heard her little maid speak: "Princess, you drink tea......

She turned her face, only to find that Chen Pu, who had changed her clothes, didn't know when she actually came to her room, and now she was sitting diagonally opposite her.

Chen Pu pointed to the table and asked the maid to put down the teacup.

The maid put down the teacup and a pot of freshly brewed tea, and went out lightly. She quickly brought over a few more snacks and preserved fruits from a wooden pallet. Tian Xiu has a problem when she reads, she likes to stuff some preserved fruits into her mouth and read while chewing; Again, she sometimes reads late and comes up hungry in the middle of the night, just in time for some snacks.

The maid laid out a few plates and went out quietly. This time, she also took the door with her.

The small bedroom immediately became quiet.

Chen Pu did not speak. Tian Xiu didn't speak. One stared at the lantern on the table in a daze, and the other stared at the hot steam rising in the teacup in front of him.

After a long time, Chen Pu suddenly asked: "In the last years of the previous dynasty, the Tubo people broke the Chengdu Mansion?" ”

Tian Xiu didn't respond for a while, but just glanced at Chen Pu suspiciously. She hadn't been able to turn her mind to the present.

“…… I can't remember such a thing. Which book is it? Chen Pu continued.

Tian Xiu thought for a while and said, "I don't remember this either. There is only one account, which is somewhat similar to what Ying Bo said. "Book of Tang" recorded that Tang Xuanzong was in the middle of ten years, when the Xichuan Festival made the king abandon the cattle fence village, the Tubo people took Lang Erqing as the commander, and the handsome 50,000 horses took the turbid water homeopathically, first took Lizhou, and then went down to Yazhou, and the soldiers came to the city of Qiongguan, and then Chengdu was shaken. Lang Erqing plundered the population of 10,000 people, and then fled to Niushan. ”

Chen Pu frowned and thought about it, then suddenly shook his head, laughed and said, "This book can't be believed." ”

Tian Xiu looked at her in surprise. She knew her friends very well, and Chen Pu had never doubted the knowledge in books, so when she heard her say that the records in the "Book of Tang" could not be trusted, and she was even very suspicious of this history book, it was inevitable that she was both surprised and curious. In fact, she remembered that Chen Pu rarely even read history books, so how could she suddenly point out that the "Book of Tang" was not credible?

The look of surprise on Tian Xiu's face made Chen Pu feel very proud. She said, "Didn't you listen to Shangguan Rui? With the strength of our Great Zhao State, it was still difficult for the supply of grain and straw for the 3,000 garrisons in Yali and Lizhou, and finally had to remove these horses; If there were 50,000 Tibetans, where would they find food to meet the needs of the army? It's not that there is no food in the southwest, but that the roads are not easy to walk, or even there are no roads, so the grain cannot be delivered. Even the grain route for the supply of 3,000 soldiers and horses was not smooth, how to ensure the march of the 50,000-strong army and the passage of the accompanying army and the subsequent grain and straw baggage? Therefore, this paragraph in the Book of Tang must be made up nonsense; At least it exaggerates the strength of the Tibetans. ”

Tian Xiu thought about it and felt that this was the truth. She smiled and said to Chen Pu: "I haven't seen you for a few days, you have increased your ability." ”

"That's it!" Chen Pu put down the tea cup in his hand and said proudly. But she was immediately deflated, lowered her eyebrows and said, "It's a pity, no matter how good you are, you're still a bullshit who doesn't understand." ”

Tian Xiu saw that she didn't look angry, so he joked: "Isn't General Shangguan also bullshit?" ”

"Hah!" As soon as Shangguan Rui was mentioned, Chen Pu immediately became happy again, "And Xiao ...... Shaw...... Hah, that's who, you know! So is he, too...... Haha...... "She's really happy. can be "bullshit" with Xiao Jian and Shangguan Rui, she really feels honored. So she wasn't angry with Shang Cheng at all this time. She couldn't be happier to be able to "go hand in hand" with a veteran like Xiao Jian and a veteran like Shangguan Rui. As for the reason that put her on a par with the two, she didn't care at all.

The two of them said a few words about this matter, and Tian Xiu asked: "Has Shang Yanshan always been like this, like this, so ......" She felt that there were some bad words, and it took a long time to find a suitable statement. “…… Has it always been so straightforward? ”

Chen Pu can't talk about this question. When she was in Yanshan, Shang Cheng had been recuperating, and the two of them didn't have much contact. How Shang Cheng later rectified the military in Yanshan and how he managed government affairs was mainly learned from other people's letters. However, she still said more pertinently: "I have heard that he is still more reasonable when dealing with local affairs. But military matters, just, ...... It's not very reasonable. The disobedient people on the Yanshan side were basically taught by him, and some of them were cleaned up more ruthlessly, and many of the original six-grade and seven-grade officers were kicked out of the guard by him and sent to lead a small local garrison. Shang Zida's prestige in the Yanshan Guards was very high, just like the status of General Xiao and General Yang in the forbidden army earlier. There is another one, this person is really capable in military affairs. Zhang Pu should have a deep understanding of this. ”

Since Chen Pu mentioned Zhang Pu, there is no way to continue the topic. As a princess, Chen Pu can casually talk about being the prime minister of the dynasty; But Tian Xiu is only a seven-grade official, and she can't talk about the prime ministers casually.

The two of them diverted from the topic and pulled some other words, and Chen Pu went back to the house to rest.

After a tiring day, Tian Xiu also felt very tired, and she also wanted to rest. But for some reason, she never fell asleep when she lay down. In the end, I had no choice but to get up and grind the ink, pick up the pen and carefully write down the production method of the Guantianyi that Shang Cheng said, and carefully wrote down the new words such as "carbon steel", "tungsten ore", "tungsten steel" and so on in the notes, and wrote a diary. It was a long time before she fell asleep in a daze......
