Chapter 44: Tell Song Chen the truth
After dinner, Song Jue came to pick up Zhao Po home.
Zhao Po reluctantly said goodbye to the red lotus and jumped into the carriage.
"Madame's boredom can be relieved?"
"Sort of. People have the limit of their abilities, and there are some things that cannot be forced. Zhao Po shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "But I don't know if what I can do now is the limit of my ability, I want to work hard and ask for an answer." ”
Song Jue looked at Zhao Po with blazing eyes: "Then I'll be with you." ”
"Okay. By the way, about Song Chen. Xiao Jin told me before that he was worried about your behavior in the past ten years. Aren't you going to tell him the truth? ”
"I don't want to. My calculations over the years have been shady. After the wedding, the outside world's impression of me will change greatly, but it is impossible to know all my strengths. The sunshine in Chen'er's heart, a heart of serving the country with a child, is exactly what the generals need. I don't want to use the darkness of the past ten years to cast a shadow on Chen'er's purest heart. ”
Zhao Po chuckled: "I didn't expect you to be such a good brother." ”
"Don't I look like it?"
"You don't look like someone who would be cautious."
"I was very cautious with my wife."
"Don't talk about that. Actually, I don't think you need to be so protective of Song Chen. He's nineteen, and he's not a kid anymore. If he goes to the battlefield in the future, he will have to intervene in the court to some extent, and you will not be able to completely block the tricks and tricks in it. It's time for Song Chen to put things to the test. If his heart is sunny enough, what about some shadows? ”
After listening to this, Song Jue's eyes darkened slightly, thinking.
He wanted to maintain Song Chen like this, why wasn't it because his younger brother was too much like himself back then.
He was also a sunny boy, a sharp existence in Huadu, but now he can only be careful in the dark and converge the light.
This kind of day is really tormenting, he doesn't want Zhao Po to spend a day, and he doesn't want Song Chen to be contaminated in the slightest.
Zhao Po couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw Song Jue's stunned expression.
She sat down beside Song Jue and said softly, "Don't you think that if Song Chen hears this news, his heart will be excited?" The brother he once relied on is still the smartest person in Huadu, don't you want Song Chen to experience this kind of joy of being lost and regained? ”
"But I'm no longer the Song Jue of the year."
"Who's to say it's not?" Zhao Po attached his hand to Song Jue's chest: "For so many years, the one who has supported you through that dark period is the shining young man in your heart." He's just a shell, don't you recognize him? ”
Song Jue held Zhao Po's hand, and his eyes were blazing with relief: "Okay." ”
After returning to the Song Mansion, Song Jue immediately called Song Chen into the study.
Zhao Po sat in the pavilion outside the study, waiting.
Shuang'er put on a thick plush cloak for Zhao Po and said, "Miss, the weather has been cold lately. It snowed yesterday. Don't wait outside. ”
"I want Song Jue to see me as soon as she comes out." Zhao Po smiled. "Shuang'er, how has your martial arts progressed recently?"
Shuang'er raised his head proudly: "I'm making rapid progress." Wei Feng said, if I practice for another year and a half, I will be able to catch up with Zen Zhen? ”
"Oh?" Zhao Po said in surprise, "In this way, you are a martial arts wizard." Your service by my side is really overkill. In the future, I will ask Xiao Jin for advice and advice, and I can also find my mother, presumably she will not care. ”
Shuang'er hurriedly said: "I just practiced martial arts so that I could better serve Miss Protection." If Miss drives me away because of this, isn't that putting the cart before the horse? In the second miss, she has been spending more and more time with Song Ergongzi recently, and I don't want to disturb them. ”
"Yes. Then I'll ask Song Jue later, and see if he can find you a teacher. ”
"Miss Lao is bothered!"
"Where?"
While talking, there was a sudden sound of pushing the door behind him.
Zhao Po immediately turned around and saw Song Chen walking out of the study with a complicated face.
Walking to the edge of the pavilion where Zhao Po lived, he saw the people in the pavilion.
He bent down and saluted: "I've seen my sister-in-law." ”
Zhao Po got up: "No need to be polite. Did Song Jue tell you everything? ”
Song Chen nodded and said with a wry smile: "I received a lot of information for a while, and I was at a loss. But my brother was willing to tell me the truth, and I was very happy. I heard from my brother that it was my sister-in-law who persuaded him to come to me. Song Chen thanked his sister-in-law here. ”
"Don't thank me. I know this is a matter between your brothers, I just want to tell you that Song Jue has not had an easy time for so many years, and he doesn't tell you the truth because he is afraid that he will affect you. This way of protecting people is really strange, but you have to believe that you are his important person. ”
Song Chen smiled: "I still know this." But my brother hid it from me, but he was dissatisfied with my sister-in-law, didn't he think I was not mature enough to accept it? ”
"You can take it." Zhao Po looked at Song Chen firmly, "You are kind, brave and smart. Mind clear. I believe that you can definitely understand Song Jue's good intentions. ”
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Song Chen bowed deeply and walked away.
Zhao Po looked at his back and smiled.
She walked cheerfully to the study.
Song Jue looked up and saw her and smiled.
Zhao Po leaned on Song Jue's shoulder and invited credit: "My proposal is good, right?" ”
"Madame is really good-natured, and Bing Xue is smart. Chen'er was still in a trance for a while, but it wouldn't take long for her to understand. ”
"Exactly. Xiao Jin and he are also getting closer and closer, and when they come to the beginning of spring, the Song and Zhao families will have a happy event again. ”
"Thank you, ma'am. Having a wife like this is enough for this life. Song Jue said seriously.
"Don't sensationalize me. By the way, how is the new military policy going? ”
"Good. The eldest princess is a good commander of the army, and she is also quite prestigious in the court. With her support, not only the emperor felt that the new military government was effective, but the courtiers also became more and more supportive. Before the next year, the decree will be spread to the military camps in various places. ”
"Not bad, not bad."
"As for female soldiers, for the time being, only the troops under the command of Princess Celestia will recruit female soldiers. In the rest of the place, I waited for other systems to be gradually improved before continuing to implement them. ”
"Next, the emperor is bound to pay more attention to you. In the Cabinet situation, it will be even more tricky. ”
"I've been dormant for all these years, and there are still large and small forces, and they are very secretive, even the saints can't find out all of them."
"That's good. By the way, there is still a month before the spring equinox, has the invitation from Caiyin Building been sent? ”
"It's already been sent. You can rest assured, most of the ministers will come. I also invited well-known people from all walks of life, especially the young. ”
Zhao Po nodded: "I said hello to Baili Ye before, and it was arranged five days before the spring equinox. But the girls of Chunlailou and the Red Sleeve Pavilion are going to start training now. The new clothes are almost ready, and there is no time to change them if they find anything unsuitable in the remaining month. Eh, by the way, did I tell you about Mu Luan? ”
"I didn't say it, but I knew him. It is said that you are satisfied with his design? ”
"That's right. His design was exactly the same as the clothes I imagined Weaver to sell. I love him so much! ”
"It seems that the hero sees something the same. I've seen Mu Luan's design, so you'd better be careful when using him. ”
"How?"
The manuscript paper and pigments he uses are all first-class products, and the design of his clothes is different from that of poor students, and it is likely that he is a child of a rich family. It's a little strange to have such an ability, but he doesn't even show his face. ”
Zhao Po nodded: "I thought of it too." But I've always been polite to people, so there's nothing special to pay attention to. ”
"Madame is indeed a favorite." Song Jue agreed. "Since the introduction of the membership system in the Sunrise Pavilion, I don't know how many people have come to ask me if I can take Zhang Meiling."
"There are also many people who have sent me to ask questions. In the future, all the income of the Sunrise Pavilion will go into my pocket, are you red-eyed? ”
"I have you, so there's nothing to blush."
"It's so sweet with a small mouth."
