It wasn't too far from the eldest princess back to their courtyard.

The long corridor was uncovered, and on a summer afternoon, it was really hot and humid by the sun.

The two of them had to speed up their pace and hurry to get this section over.

Gu Yunjin said as he walked: "A few days ago, Zhuangzi sent some plums, and Mama Zhong asked the kitchen to cook plum tea, and took the well water to calm it, and it was very cool without adding crushed ice, and the county lord really liked it." ”

When Jiang Muyuan heard this, he said with a smile: "Shou An liked these when he was a child. ”

The two discussed that after returning to the house, they would also take some plum tea to go to the summer, but they didn't expect to walk outside the yard and meet the grandmother who came to pass the word, saying that Sun Ke and Cheng Jin were coming.

Jiang Muyuan paused at his feet and said strangely: "Who is here?" ”

Mama hurriedly replied again: "The little prince and the third son of Su Ningbo are here, waiting for you in the study in front." ”

Jiang Muyuan was about to say "rare guest", but then he remembered that he asked Tingfeng to pass the word to Sun Ke like this, and said with a smile: "He is upright." ”

Gu Yunjin bent his eyes and smiled, and said, "I'll ask someone to send the plum tea to the study." ”

Jiang Muyuan bowed, so he had to let go of his daughter-in-law's hand first, looked at the courtyard close at hand, and turned to go forward.

In the study, Cheng Jinzhi sat and ate tea.

Sun Ke didn't regard himself as an outsider at all, he sat on the Taishi chair at random, leaned on the back of the chair, a bowl of tea was resting on his hand, he was playing with a pair of jade walnuts in his hand, squinting his eyes and humming a little song.

When Jiang Muyuan stepped in, he almost regarded this place as Sun Ke's study.

Sun Ke did not "restrain himself" in the face of the arrival of his master, he still sat as if he was listening to a story in Suxiang Building, smiled and said hello to Jiang Muyuan, and then the wicked person sued first: "You called us by yourself." ”

Jiang Muyuan glanced at the little prince: "I just said it casually, I didn't expect you to be so thick-skinned!" ”

Sun Ke's jade walnuts were crisp and said: "After so many years of friendship, you haven't understood me, it's not my fault, it can only be your fault." Besides, who is with whom of our two brothers, and do you still pay attention to those false courtesies? ”

This is not a shame at all.

The little prince didn't seem to have said enough, and began to reason with deep emotion: "How many days can you stay in Beijing this time?" I've arranged it for you, I'm in Wenying Hall during the day, Ming'er has to go to your Yue's house to say hello after leaving the palace, go to Taishi's Mansion the day after tomorrow, the surprise attack is successful, your third aunt is about to give birth, your husband and wife are going to visit, and after that, I remember that it was the old lady of your family who broke seven, and waited for you to come out to Suxianglou......"

Sun Ke was halfway through his words, but he was interrupted by Jiang Muyuan with a smile, and he said, "When I'm free, I'm afraid that something will happen to you to avoid Prince Yong, right?" ”

came and went, and Cheng Jin's saliva almost squirted out.

Don't look at the two cousins choking badly, Jiang Muyuan knew in his heart that Sun Ke must have something serious to look for him, so he would come to the Ningguo Mansion.

Sun Ke's temperament is Hu Lai, but he is actually very measured.

He knew that Jiang Muyuan came back in the dust, and he had to rest for a while, not to mention that the husband and wife hadn't seen each other for a while, and they had a heartfelt stomach to confide, what kind of excitement did he and Cheng Jinzhi come to join?

It's just that it's hard to drag on.

Sun Ke and Cheng Jinzhi came to talk about the situation in Nanling, they knew that Jiang Muyuan would definitely be transferred to the south, and tomorrow in the Wenying Palace, they would also have to discuss the details with various places, if they didn't have some exact information in their hands, they would be easy to be led by the nose.

"In the end, it's about the two highnesses......," Cheng Jinzhi touched his forehead, "It's not easy to do." ”

"It's three," Jiang Muyuan chuckled, and seeing that the two were puzzled, he explained, "Your Highness will go to the south with me." ”

The news that Sun Qi asked Ying to go to the south had not yet spread, and Sun Ke and Cheng Jinzhi were not clear, so they exchanged glances when they heard the words.

But no matter how many His Highnesses are, this errand is not easy to do, let alone Jiang Muyuan, all the generals and officials involved in it are bitter, Sun Qi is good to say here, even if he goes south, it is good to be detained in the camp, Sun Rui and Sun Zhen, but there is no clear news until today.

The two of them are safe, and everything is naturally fine, if they are injured, if they really fall into the hands of Sun Bi, if Sun Bi threatens the safety of the two of them......

Sun Ke didn't want to think about it at all, he had a headache when he thought about it, there was so much fun in life, and he had to find troubles in what he did.

Cheng Jinzhi has some information in his hands, all of which are Su Ningbo's way.

Su Ningbo wanted to lead the troops before, but the actual situation was limited, and he couldn't withstand the continuous tossing, so he could only give up, but he had a foundation, and many rumors would still fall in his ears, true or false, it all depended on his own judgment.

"There is a saying that before Sun Bi rebelled, His Royal Highness the Seventh was injured, fell down from the mountain, and the injury was not light," Cheng Jinzhi said, "With his injury, if he wants to get out of Sun Bi's hands, I am afraid that it will not be easy, even if he escapes, I am afraid that it will have a great impact on his body."

My father thinks that there is a seventy or eighty percent possibility of this statement, if the two highnesses had not fallen into the hands of Sun Bi, from Sun Bi's rebellion to the present, they would definitely be able to deliver news to the neighboring mansion, but there has been no message, I am afraid that there is a shortage of manpower, and they cannot be easily moved. ”

Sun Rui and Sun Zhen want to get out, and there will be more or less usable manpower around them.

Nanling is mountainous, no matter how many troops Sun Bi has, it is impossible to close the mountain, and the people inside can run out over the mountains and mountains to report the news.

There has been no movement, that is, the masters are injured, and there are not enough people to take care of them, so they really can't free up people.

Of course, what Jiang Muyuan thought was that Sun Rui, who forced Sun Bi to rebel, concealed the news and did not let people come out to report the news.

The reason for this was also speculated by Jiang Muyuan.

Sun Rui's intervention in Nanling is by no means the end of letting Sun Bi rebel, he should want the imperial court to fight with Nanling.

But if he and Sun Zhen both left Nanling safe and sound, then this battle would not have to be fought.

Nanling is steep in mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the imperial treasury is empty, and the follow-up is weak, it is not easy to recover Nanling, of course, the saint will not let Sun Bi be the emperor, but after a while, it may be calm.

Sun Bi was forced to rebel in a hurry, his strength was not enough for him to fight Nanling, he preferred to be the emperor in Nanling, the court silver is not enough to support, so he will reduce investment, and only use the least number of troops to spend with Sun Bi in front, and finally stared at him with big eyes, you don't beat me, I don't fight you, and they will rest and replenish.

Nanling has become a trapped beast, but with the natural danger, even if the development is slow, there is no need to be afraid of the imperial court, and the imperial court has to wait for the treasury to ease up, and then wave the army to fight, such a stalemate, three or five years is short.

And now, Sun Rui and Sun Zhen have no whereabouts, even if the saint doesn't want to fight to the death, he has to fight to the end for his two sons.

After all, Sun Rui knows that Sun Zhen is the most favored in the heart of the saint.

And Sun Zhen, the proton, is now trapped in Sun Rui's hands.
