The two female guards went out to run errands, Bao Kan also left, and after he left, Chen Pu and Shang Cheng were left in the hall.

Bao Kan also thought that the two generals, who were both fake commanders of Yanshan, would discuss some important military affairs alone, but the truth was far from his assumptions. The two people in the room sat opposite each other across several cases, and they didn't say anything for a while, each holding a hot tea cup in their hands, and bowed their heads and didn't speak.

But Chen Pu didn't have anything to say to Shang Cheng. Although the two of them had fought side by side on the grassland for a period of time, after returning to Yanshan, whether it was in military affairs or local affairs, Shang Cheng also gave her great support and help, and she was grateful and respected this person for this, but she did not have much personal dealings with Shang Cheng for these reasons. In fact, they never talked about anything other than military and government affairs. Of course, at this time last year, Shang Cheng spent most of his time recuperating in peace, and she really couldn't bother him too much. But that's just an excuse; The more important reason is that she looks down on Shang Cheng from the bottom of her heart, and in her impression, Shang Cheng is just a reckless general who only knows how to fight. This is the case, whether she admits it herself or not, and because she has always had this opinion in her heart, when she first conceived the candidate for the governor of Yanshan, the first thing she thought of was Li Shen. In her mind, Li Shen, who was born in a big family, may have such and such problems, but no matter how he says, his insight and talent are better than those of a "nouveau riche" like Shang Cheng, but because she was alone at the time, she really couldn't compete with Lu Jidi Xu and their group of Yanshan civil officials, so she finally had to acquiesce to their recommendation of Shang Cheng......

The hall was so quiet that you could almost hear the rustle of snowflakes falling on the roof. The two large copper basins in the corner of the house were burning vigorously, and the charcoal fire shone crimson from the cracks in the black charcoal covered with the fire, and from time to time a few dazzling sparks exploded with a few crisp beeps, flickering, drifting, and quietly extinguishing in the warm air, as if they had never appeared. There was a conversation outside the room, but the conversation quickly faded away. Suddenly drums and bells rang out in the courtyard behind. In the sonorous sound of leather drums and rhythmic brass bells, you can faintly hear someone talking loudly. Soon the sounds stopped, and then someone was heard chanting over the clinking of the chopsticks:

"Drifting snow,

Snow

The cold eyes are gone.

The bleak wind blows away the red dust,

The sound of the horn is intoxicating.

People get drunk,

People get drunk,

Fall asleep in a cold suit. ”

She knew it was someone in the backyard who was on the liquor order. This "Laughing Order" is very good, it is timely, appropriate, and the words are appropriate, although the rhetoric is not delicate, but the words seem to have deep meanings when you think about it carefully, and it is not too much to give a "wonderful order" evaluation......

Just as she was silently savoring the words, in the soft sound of silky bamboo, a female voice was like a song and crying, and it was the Xiaoling "Drifting Snow" that she had just heard.

She immediately knew who the singer was. She gritted her teeth and shook her head slightly, trying to drive these troubles out of her heart. But the more she didn't want to pay attention to it, the clearer the fluttering singing became, as if the singer was whispering in her ear.

“…… People are drunk, people are drunk, and they fall asleep with a pillow of cold clothes.

People are drunk, people are drunk, and they fall asleep with a pillow of cold clothes. ……”

In the aftermath, a group of people applauded. Some are called "good", some shout "good", and in the midst of the noise, I heard a man say aloud: "The new word of the great monk can be called a 'wonderful' word, and the song and dance of Qingluan Sanren can be called a 'absolute' word!" The wonderfulness of these two is not in vain for the trouble we have suffered......"

Chen Pu's face was even more ugly.

Qingluan Sanren is the road number of her third sister Nanyang! The one who sang the lyrics just now was her sister Nanyang! And the person who wrote the lyrics was the mad monk He Tu who disgraced the royal family!

Her face was flushed, and blood was oozing from under her skin. She was ashamed of her sister's indiscretion; At the same time, she was also very angry at what Nanyang had done, even if her brother-in-law's case was indeed wronged, Nanyang shouldn't have taken revenge like this, right? Didn't she know that her rebellious behavior over the years had brought shame on her father and mother, as well as all her brothers and sisters? Especially now, sitting across from him were former colleagues and comrades-in-arms who always had a sneering smile on their faces, and the shame and anger were far clearer and stronger than ever!

She forgot for a moment what the weird "smile" on Shang Cheng's face was all about. In her eyes, Shang Cheng, who lowered his head slightly and stared at the tea cup in his hand, was completely listening. A hateful smile with mockery on his face was completely laughing at Nanyang...... This is also a joke about her, as well as her parents, brothers and sisters!

She tried to calm herself, lowered her eyes and stared at her feet, and said in a very flat tone, "That's a pretty good word." ”

Shang Cheng raised his head and looked at her inexplicably: "Words? What word? ”

“…… It's the little order that was chanted in the back yard just now. Chen Pu stared at Shang Cheng. But she couldn't tell if Shang Cheng was cheating or not. However, his questioning eyes somewhat reassured her. It seems that the blind man probably doesn't know those things yet. This is also reasonable, after all, he is a new upstart who has just risen, and it is probably the first time to go to Beijing, and it is very common to have never heard of those "anecdotes" in Nanyang......

This time she was wrong. Although Shang Cheng has never been to Shangjing, this does not mean that he will be lonely and unheard. The rumors about Princess Nanyang have long been spread to Yanshan with those officials who are on business trips, and have become people's after-dinner conversations; Naturally, it reached his ears. It's just that Princess Nanyang has a few good friends, and which talented people have anything to do with Princess Nanyang, and they have nothing to do with him, the fake admiral, so he listens to it and listens, and he doesn't care about it at all. In fact, if it weren't for Lu Ji saying that there were a few good books in Princess Nanyang's mansion, he probably wouldn't even be able to remember the name of this princess. And he didn't know that Princess Nanyang was in the post station now, and of course it was even more impossible to joke and slander Chen Pu.

He said to Chen Pu a little apologetically: "Someone was singing just now? I didn't pay much attention to it...... "He didn't know much about poetry, and he didn't like it, except for the popular poems he memorized in school, he hardly read any poetry books, let alone appreciate it." "What's the first word?"

Chen Pu wondered why he said "one word" instead of "one word".

"It's a ...... of "Laughing Order"

Shang Cheng nodded thoughtfully, indicating that he understood. But in fact, he didn't know anything except that it was the wine order at the feast.

"Zida doesn't seem to be good at this, right?" Chen Pu said with a smile in his eyes: "'The head of the city beats the drum to pass the flower branches, and the pine nuts are held in the fist on the table'." This is a banquet left by the former Tang Dynasty. ”

Shang Cheng grinned bitterly. Do you need to ask? It's not that Chen Pu hasn't seen him look foreign at the banquet! He has attended several banquets organized by the Yanshan Health Department, and when the wine is hot at the dinner table, he always has to carry out all kinds of drinking orders. Most of the time, the wine order is carried out by beating the drum and passing the flowers, and when the drum stops, the flowers or silk flowers are in the hands of whoever has to say the last sentence according to the rhyme of the word card, and if they can't say it or rhyme wrongly, they will be punished for drinking; Sometimes, if the food is rare, the rules are reversed, and only those who speak in light of it have the opportunity to enjoy the rare goodies. No matter what kind of rules it is, he is always the one who suffers in the end, either being punished for drinking, or watching others eat and drink spicy food. There's no way, who made him, the Admiral General, have no ability to fill in words?

It seems that this topic will not go on. Chen Pu put down the tea cup in his hand, stared at the flickering candle flame in the lantern on the table, and asked faintly, "How was this battle fought?" ”

"What battle?" Shang Cheng asked strangely. What does Chen Pu mean by saying this coldly? Could it be that Yan Shanwei entered the grassland last month, and she also heard about it? He immediately dismissed the idea. Although the war just passed is no longer a secret in Yanshanwei, but no one in the mainland of the Central Plains should know about it, you must know that the submission sent by Yanshanwei to the Ministry of War is the highest level of secret, not to mention Chen Pu's false position, even in the Ministry of War and the imperial court, there should be very few people who know about this military plan......

"I've read the submission you sent to the military department......"

Chen Pu's words were fluttering, but it was tantamount to a thunderbolt in Shang Cheng's ears. His brows furrowed.

What the?! Even Chen Pu has seen this strategy?!

He was so angry that he almost wanted to run to the military headquarters immediately and ask if these guys knew what they were doing! If the content on the strategy spreads, this may make Da Zhao lose a chance to reverse the offensive and defensive situation! It is not only the hard work of a group of officers in Yanshan Weili who have not closed their eyes for several days and nights, it has also been exchanged for the blood and lives of tens of thousands of people since last summer!

No! No way! He can't let the situation get worse, he wants to try to minimize the damage; At worst, we can't let the current leaks affect the military operation next spring!

He had to do something now!

He asked Chen Pu solemnly, "How did you know about this submission?" Under what circumstances did you see this submission? ”
