In the empty restaurant, most of the vegetables and meat I bought a few days ago have not been touched, and if I put it down in such a hot weather, it will rot and stink. But Du Shaoyin doesn't care at all, making money is not important to him at all, this fat pavilion is a commemoration on the one hand, and a secret stronghold on the other hand, although Yan Keran has not appeared for many days.

Some people may ask that according to Du Shaoyin's craft, how can the business be so cold? The reason is not for him personally, but for this era, this time of turmoil. The peace talks failed, and the Tang army invaded the capital; Those crazy ministers have nowhere to go, and the court can't unite at this time, in such a situation of internal and external troubles, who can still have the heart to go out to the restaurant?

"Business is so deserted, I finally have a chance to taste your craft."

Du Shaoyin, who had been sitting at the top of the stairs, followed the voice and looked over, the person standing at the door was not Su Qian, who had not shown up for a long time, or the elegant scholar's dress, and the folding fan still did not leave his hand.

"What's wrong? Don't want to? Or is it that you have been idle for too long and your craftsmanship is rusty? ”

Du Shaoyin didn't have the intention of ridiculing at all, he got up and walked to Su Qian's side, and barely squeezed out a smile, "The most proficient thing in my life is cooking, do you say I'm rusty?" ”

"Then don't delay, hurry up, I'm hungry!" Su Qian smiled and entered the restaurant and sat down by the window, "You are good at cooking!" ”

Du Shaoyin replied "yes" put on a white apron and immediately started to move, the sound of chopping vegetables and stir-frying vegetables soon echoed in the small restaurant, in Du Shaoyin's sound this is simply music, the more you listen to it, the more you listen to it, the more you can soothe your mind, the anxiety of the past few days disappeared in the sound of pots and pans colliding.

Du Shaoyin put a plate of fried rice in front of Su Qian, and introduced it with great interest: "Young Master Su, don't underestimate this bowl of fried rice, the simpler the dish, the more the chef's skills will be tested." The white is rice, the yellow is the egg, the green is the shallot, the red is diced meat, and it also has a name called 'Fat Kui Fried Rice'. ”

"Hahaha, what a 'fat kui fried rice'! The name sounds cheesy at first glance, but after listening to it for a long time, you can understand the connotation. I'll taste it! Su Qian picked up the chopsticks and put a large mouthful of fried rice into his mouth, and after chewing for a while, his face began to flush, and he didn't have time to say anything, he kept swinging the chopsticks quickly, and after a while, a bowl of fried rice was all in his stomach.

"When you're full, you can always talk about what you mean."

"It's been a long time since we've seen each other, so you don't have to be so angry with me, right?" Su Qian pushed away the dishes and chopsticks, opened the folding fan and began to fan up, "I don't need to say more about national affairs, the people in the capital are already known, and some businessmen have moved their families south." Shaoyin, do you think this capital can still withstand the third toss? ”

"I'm a restaurant, not a fortune teller, so I can't answer this matter. Since the merchants are planning to flee, why don't you go? ”

"The capital is the foundation of the Su family, if we leave, this foundation is broken, and the future of the Su family is unpredictable."

"A good one who sacrifices his life and doesn't give up his money, isn't it also the time for you businessmen to reimburse the country? The Su family's ability to run away like those who are rich and unkind is already worthy of the admiration of the people such as me. ”

"Then you have to have more admiration, our Su family can't help but not plan to leave and will help out, as long as the court needs all the money of the Su family, it can be used for military expenses, as long as it can keep the capital."

"That's what you're here to tell me about today?"

"Of course not, Shaoyin, this battle must be very difficult to fight, I came here today to ask you whether you believe in the imperial court or trust His Royal Highness King Yu more?"

Du Shaoyin's eyes widened suddenly, he stared at Su Qian, this question sounded rebellious, and it was inexplicable when he thought about it, but in fact, he realized that the intention was profound.

"This is the reward of the past years and the original dowry, all of which are used as military salaries." Behind Yun Xuan were more than a dozen large boxes, filled with gold, silver, jewelry, gold and silver.

Yan Keran picked up Yun Xuan's hand, and said with a complicated mood: "What the capital lacks is military strength, as for military spending"

"It is precisely because of the shortage of military strength that the military pay should be abundant enough so that the soldiers can do their best. I am the princess of Daliang, and I should have taken the lead in setting an example at the time of crisis when the country was ruined and the family was ruined, Ke Ran, you just accept it and distribute it to the soldiers as soon as possible. ”

"Yun Xuan" Yan Keran didn't know what to say for a while, Yun Xuan leaned her head on Yan Keran's shoulder and said: "We are husband and wife, no matter what kind of past we have, after all, it is already in the past, I have always been deeply grateful to you for saving me desperately, this time the capital can escape from death like the last two times, half of it is in heaven's will and half in man-made." I'm most worried about you, I just hope you can be well. ”

Yan Keran hugged Yun Xuan tightly into his arms, he felt the warm droplets of water dripping on the back of his hand, so his eyes were also moist, and a thousand words finally turned into a deep and warm enough hug. A husband's body should be the wife's support, even a princess.

"Yunxuan, thank you." Yan Keran stroked Yun Xuan's already bulging abdomen, "It's me who ignored you, and I have been paying attention to the imperial court and failing to give you enough care, even I was the last to know about such an important matter as you being pregnant, I can't help you!" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's all over, I just hope that you can pick him up as soon as our child is born, he is the crystallization of the two of us, and it is our sustenance for the future."

"Yes, definitely!"

Yun Xuan's belly is already bulging, according to the estimation of the palace lady, the birth day is very close, and this last moment should be the day when Yun Xuan needs to rest the most, but the family and country have encountered this turmoil, and Yan Keran's heart has swelled with infinite desire to protect.

"Alright, it's time for you to go to training."

"Let me stay with you a little longer, shall I?"

"The country is important, I can wait for you."

Yan Keran kissed Yun Xuan affectionately on the forehead, and finally reluctantly left the mansion and headed towards the Imperial Forest Guard Office in the imperial city, and when he was halfway there, he met Jiang Weizhen who rushed over.

"Is that you?"

"Weichen Jiang Weizhen see the horse!"

"Okay, we're all old acquaintances, don't use these false courtesies, you're looking for me?"

"There are some things I have to talk to you about, colt."

"If you have something, wait until I finish training."

Jiang Weizhen took a big step forward and grabbed Yan Keran's sleeve, and said in an irrefutable tone: "If you wait any longer, the country will be ruined!" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know that I can cure you of a crime of demagoguery! ”

"Even if that's the case, as long as I can do my part for the last time, I have no regrets! But

Ma, from the bottom of your heart, you also think that this battle is more likely to be lost, I'm not wrong! ”

Yan Keran was immediately stunned, he didn't answer, because he didn't think about how to answer, no matter how he answered this question, it was inappropriate.

"The first two times to win there is no lack of luck, of course, the more important thing is the right time, place and people, this time the hot summer is a good time to fight, not to occupy the time; The wide official road from Yancheng to the capital is conducive to the march of the Tang army, and it does not occupy the land; The imperial court self-destroyed the Great Wall, and the gods and horses alone had lost their people, and the horses still thought that this battle was worth fighting? ”

Yan Keran was speechless when asked, these things actually didn't need Jiang Weizhen to point out that he already understood, but his identity, his official position, and the truths he learned in the academy did not allow him to make a mental hint that he would fail, absolutely not!

"I have taken all these words, I can pretend that you have not said anything today, you have remembered it for me, if I hear your words like this again, you know what will happen to you."

"I was ready to die for my country! But I'm not reconciled, I don't want to see the lives ruined, I don't want to see the rich capital trampled on by foreign enemies, and I don't want the national fortune of Daliang to be ruined like this! ”

Yan Keran stared at Jiang Weizhen, whose eyes were blazing, and asked, "Otherwise, what can you do?" ”

"I'm going to war!"

"When it comes to articles, you are indeed a good hand, but the battlefield is not at all what a literati like you imagine, can you still be so calm when your eyes are red with real blood?"

"The horse has been on the battlefield, I have seen life and death, I naturally agree with these words, people say 'useless is a scholar', but I, Jiang Weizhen, am not! I know very well how hard this battle is in the capital, and I only ask the horse to give me a chance today! After Jiang Weizhen finished speaking, he knelt directly in front of Yan Keran.

"At the beginning, Shaoning said that you 'have a great responsibility for the family and the country, and the nation is proud of it', I just smiled faintly, and now it seems that I have to sigh that Shaoning has a unique vision, and you can really be useful. Okay, Jiang Weizhen, you're fine, I've already given you the last chance, you took the initiative to die, you follow me, I'll go to the official office to equip you with a set of armor for the Royal Forest Guard! ”

Jiang Weizhen instead replied loudly with a smile: "The last general is ordered!"

"Pony!"

"What's the matter?" Yan Keran was obviously displeased, and his voice couldn't help but be much louder.

"Back to the horse, the emperor needs you to go to the Lintoe Palace immediately!"

"Something's wrong!" Yan Keran turned back to Jiang Weizhen and said, "You are already a member of the Imperial Forest Guard, you can go with me!" ”

When Yan Keran and Jiang Weizhen came to the outside of the Lin Toe Palace, it was already full of troops, and judging from the military uniforms, it was a god killing horseman. Walking through the neatly arranged army, there was a person kneeling in the middle of the white jade field in front of the hall, with his whole body tied up and his head bowed. Standing not far from that person was Tangtai Wengu, and Emperor Liang was standing on the steps outside the hall at this time.

"The last general will see the emperor!" Since that day, Yan Ke Ran has been wearing armor every day.

"Horse, I Xuan you are here to inspire my Liang Junwei together!"

Boost the military? Yan Keran was a little puzzled, he turned his head to look at the kneeling man, this time he could see more clearly, from the perspective of this person's figure, it was quite familiar, and when the person raised his head slightly, Yan Keran suddenly recognized the identity of this person. He, isn't he just Tantai Qiu'an?!
