Chapter 35, The Right to Choose Life and Death
"What does that mean? Didn't you even plan to send an invitation to me, the little king of Ping? ”
Li Shu said with a smile: "Princess Ping is pregnant, if she has a fetal gas because of this small banquet, it should be my sin." ”
The woman beside the man withdrew the man's hand, stepped forward, and gently put her warm little hand on Li Shu's cold little hand and said, "You girl, why did you see me so much at this time, have you forgotten our sisterhood?" ”
"I call it thoughtful, they said, the general's wife should be so dignified and elegant."
Looking at Li Shu's arrogant appearance, the woman covered her lips and snickered in a funny way: "Didn't you say that the general's wife should be free and uninhibited?" ”
After speaking, the woman's hand put on Li Shu's hand again, "Don't you want me to stand here and chat with you?" The little guy in my belly can't stand this big grievance. ”
Before he finished speaking, another sharp female voice came from outside the door, "Books! ”
She didn't need to look to know that it was her father's colleague Queen Xueqing who had arrived, and she was more stable than herself, becoming an idle bureaucratic wife.
Wang Xueqing walked forward quickly, and said with tears in her eyes: "Shu'er, I've hurt you." General, he can't bear to leave you, mourn..."
King Ping seemed to be more concerned than Li Shu about the news that Xie Zixu was no longer alive, and coughed lightly: "Okay, it's not the hospitality of the general's family to gather here." ”
Li Shu nodded and took the three of them to the hall for tea, and after a while, a small number of bureaucrats had arrived one after another, all of them were officials who said that they were big and small, and they never occupied a seat everywhere, so it was not strange to come to the general's mansion.
Nearly in the evening, Li Shu put away the account book that recorded the comings and goings of the guests, and briefly explained: "Cheer up, the princess is about to arrive, shout to me, let the people around know that the eldest princess of Gaoyang has arrived at the general's mansion." ”
"Yes, ma'am."
She put down the people in the front hall and came to the backyard silently, Mo Zheng was half-sitting on the steps guarding the door, and when she saw Li Shu coming, she hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Miss, the little general has just fallen asleep." ”
Li Shu looked in through the crack in the door, looking at the comforting child who was sleeping, she smiled bitterly: "He is sensible, he doesn't stick to me, it's okay like this, it's better to foster it, don't worry about his noisy princess getting bored." ”
"What do you mean, Miss?"
Li Shu shook his head and said, "Mo, sit down and talk to me." ”
The two sat against the sunset, and Li Shu seemed to enjoy the comfort of the evening, stretching his eyebrows, which had been compact.
Outside the walls of the General's Palace
"You wait for me, dead fox!" Shen Muqing chased after Ruan Muheng with no physical strength, she couldn't understand why the old fox arranged for the car to go back, and they went first.
It's okay to go first, but she really can't understand it when she runs first.
Seeing Ruan Muheng stop outside the wall of the General's Mansion, Shen Muqing wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and said puzzledly: "You, what are you doing here!" ”
Ruan Muheng made a shushing gesture to Shen Muqing and explained: "This is the wall in the backyard of the General's Mansion, hurry up and climb up." ”
Shen Muqing looked up at the towering wall with great difficulty, "Can you climb up here?" Can we go to the main gate? ”
"Don't you want to see what Li Shu wants to do?"
"What else can you do! explained so carefully, either I wanted to die or I wanted to go on the expedition. Shen Mu looked at Ruan Muheng innocently, and whispered: "How can such a stupid question pop up in your mouth." ”
Ruan Muheng froze in place like petrification, smacking his tongue and said, "You care so much, let's go up and talk about it." ”
Without waiting for Shen Muqing to stand firmly, he lifted the collar around her neck and lifted her to the wall without pity.
She could only hold on to the wall and keep rolling her eyes at Ruan Muheng beside her, Ruan Muheng said with a smile: "Since you have guessed, then you don't need to listen to what Li Shu said, do you see the back window and roof?" Keep an eye on it, if the kid in there is killed, you've failed your mission. ”
Shen Muqing blinked his eyes, "What will happen if you fail?" ”
"Redo, anyway, it's you and not me who consume life, and it's nothing to be ten years old at a time."
Shen Muqing subconsciously touched her cheek, she didn't want to lose the collagen in this face.
Li Shu, who was sitting lazily on the steps in the courtyard, lost a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she pretended to be relaxed and said: "Mo, this kind of time is the most relaxing day I have ever had these days. ”
"Miss, my subordinates will mention the prime minister and the general to take good care of you."
Li Shu shook his head and said: "I don't lack someone to take care of, what I lack is always that person, the boy who peels candy for me." ”
Mo took out the purse on his body, took out a candy from it and said: "Miss, this is handed over to his subordinates by the previous general, he asked his subordinates to give you one every five days, and the subordinates put it in your meals before, and now the subordinates will return this purse to Miss, and Miss will eat one when she feels uncomfortable." ”
Li Shu felt that he suddenly took the purse bitterly in his heart, under the tree back then, the innocent girl who didn't know what to marry had already died with Xie Zixu's departure that day.
"Mo, I have given the task of protecting the little general to the four of Spring and Winter Dark Night."
"The two of them in spring and winter are delicate, and the two of them have a lot of ghost ideas in the dark, they are all loyal servants who are strong in martial arts and good at pretending to obey the Lord's orders, and Miss's arrangement is very good."
"I also asked Cui Ping to find a future wife for the little general!"
Mo just nodded, moving his clicking fingers and asked, "What about Miss?" Are you going to go to the general? ”
Speaking of this, Li Shucai seemed to be suddenly relieved, and whispered: "I miss Daddy and Brother Xu a little, if Daddy is still there, I will be like a child and let them return me as a husband." ”
"If the master is still here, such suffering will never be the turn of the young lady."
"Mo, in the end, I want you to choose the rest of your life, whether to accompany me on the battlefield or retire to the rivers and lakes." Li Shu said very seriously, she went to the border gate, there was no possibility of survival, and she didn't want to deprive Mo of the right to live.
Without waiting for Mo to answer, Shen Muqing on the wall interrupted the peaceful silence in the courtyard with an exclamation, "Man in black! Men in Black! ”
Ruan Muheng was so heart-wrenching that he completely forgot about Shen Muqing, who was lying on the roof and couldn't do martial arts.
Looking at the black-clothed man who flew out from behind his child's room, Li Shu subconsciously pushed the door in, the nurse had fallen to the ground, she ran to the baby's cradle in a panic, and the child's lips were slowly purple.
Mo held his breath to help the nurse, and anxiously pulled Li Shu and walked out, "Miss, there is poisonous gas in the room, we must go out as soon as possible." ”
She didn't have time to think about the child in her arms and rushed out, and quickly locked the door tightly, she wanted to leave some poisonous gas in the room, in case she couldn't solve the poison somehow.
