It took Shen Zhaorong a few breaths to calm down, even though he still felt a little incredulous in his heart, but he couldn't find anything wrong, and after a long time, he muttered: "My father has been in the Mountain Shaking Army for ten years......"

"Yes, when Ling Zun was injured and disarmed, he was already the commander of the battalion, and there were 500 soldiers under his jurisdiction, and my father said at the time that if it weren't for that, the future commander of the capital would be just around the corner." Pei Zhenwan looked at Shen Zhaorong's eyes, as if she wanted to engrave these words straight into the other party's heart.

"You mean, the general knows about my father?"

"In the Shaking Mountain Army, as long as there is a military position, my father will secretly pay attention. Fifty battalion commanders, he remembers clearly. Pei Zhenwan's gaze never left Shen Zhaorong's stunned face, "When Ling Zun was disarmed, the three-halberd red spear taken away from the Shaking Mountain Army, I don't know if it is still in the Qin family?" ”

Shen Zhaorong stood up like this: "You actually know that spear, you are really the daughter of General Huaihua." ”

Pei Zhenwan got up slowly, with a painful and forbearant smile on her face, she endured the trembling and excitement that was about to roll out of her heart: "Zhaorong and I both know what the iron blood of soldiers is, who will use the sacrifice of more than 20,000 soldiers to win trust under the pretense of identity?" Back then, I was lucky enough to survive under the protection of a large number of people, so naturally I would not survive. Today, as Pei Zhenwan, I will reveal such a secret identity and inventory, and I also hope to cooperate with Zhaorong without concealment. If Zhaorong is willing to believe what I say, and is still willing to uphold that iron-blooded heart, you and I will treat each other with all sincerity from now on. If you think it's inappropriate and want to reveal my true identity, you can do so. ”

Shen Zhaorong had a circle of tears rolling in his eyes, and he actually bowed deeply: "You mentioned the battle of Fengcheng that day, and today I only know the hidden situation, and it was indeed my fault that I failed to dissuade Your Majesty back then." Please bow down to me. ”

"Zhaorong, why bother." stepped forward to help him up, "What I said that day was just a radical method, where can I take it seriously." ”

Shen Zhaorong was very stubborn, and forcibly bowed deeply: "I just bowed to Yang Jingshu." This worship, please also accept it for the soldiers of the Shaking Mountain Army, I, Qin Jiqing, were in the Chen Palace, but I was selfish and selfish, and I failed to have a word of advice for Nanshu and Fengcheng. Whatever my ability can persuade Your Majesty, but inaction is undeniable. ”

Pei Zhenwan's outstretched hand brought a trace of irrepressible trembling, tried her best to calm herself, and raised Shen Zhaorong's arms: "Zhaorong, time has passed, so people know underground, and they should be comforted." ”

Shen Zhaorong got up, the tears in his eyes finally rolled down, he looked at her with warm but loving eyes, held Mei Changsu's hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Five years ago, you should have only been thirteen or fourteen years old. Over the years, how difficult should it be for you, and how much suffering should you have endured when you walked in front of me step by step alone? ”

Pei Zhenwan felt as if she had been stabbed in the heart, in the past five years, she had never been questioned like this by a person who was nearly ten years older than herself. In the past five years, no one dared to mention Ding Bo, they were all people who had experienced this tragic parting of life and death, and naturally no one was willing to recall such a mental journey. After coming to Chen Guo, although the senior sister cared, she always avoided such a topic, even if Cheng Zhilan wanted to mention it a few times, or showed a trace of distressed intentions, she was taken by her to say something else.

Today in Xuanming Palace, in front of such a person she didn't know and didn't know well, such a sudden pity and care made the heat in her heart rise together, mixed with her sorrow over the years, so that she seemed to be able to hear a slight tear in her heart.

"Zhaorong, I'm fine." Suppressing the tumbling feeling in her heart, Pei Zhenwan first let herself change her warm and resolute gaze, "No matter what the previous situation is, I can stand here today and reveal my heart to Zhaorong, and I just hope that in the future, I can support each other with Zhaorong." ”

"Of course I do." Shen Zhaorong nodded solemnly, "There is such a relationship between you and me, today I will definitely regard Yang Jingshu as my sister in the name of Qin Jiqing." In the future, we will work together to deal with the path. ”

Pei Zhenwan shook the hands of the two of them vigorously: "Today's promise, always remember it." Zhaorong Niangniang, let's relax our minds first before we can speak. ”

Sitting down and carefully wiping his tears with a handkerchief, Shen Zhaorong asked, "How do you want me to help you?" ”

"In the battle of Fengcheng, after the defeat of the army, the Nanshu court abandoned the city, and the local misery could not wait for the imperial court to help. Chen Shuai Cao Gang issued a document that if he could open the city and surrender, he would not hurt the people in the city. My uncle, Yin Gaoxiang of Fengcheng Mansion, was gullible in Cao Gang to open the city, and did not want Cao Gang to lead the army into the city, but reported to the court of Chen that the officials of Shu had surrendered fraudulently and set up an ambush in the city, and the Chen soldiers had to be cleaned up immediately, and all the officials and gentry and merchants in Fengcheng were slaughtered, and none of them were spared. ”

Shen Zhaorong's body couldn't help but tremble: "Cao Gang, you are the in-law of the Marquis of Mao, do you want revenge?" ”

"That's right," Pei Zhenwan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, "There are one hundred and seventy-three people in the Yang Gao family, and more than a thousand people have lost their lives in the entire Fengcheng, everyone can't die like this, and they have to be called cunning and treacherous." ”

"Although I am not good at this, I am willing to do my best to help you," Shen Zhaorong sighed, "It's just that now that Fengcheng has returned to the land of Chen Guo, there is a hidden secret, I don't know if there will be a time for the big light." ”

"As long as you try your best, why don't you have a chance?"

Shen Zhaorong nodded, suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice: "That is, revenge, Your Majesty sent troops to attack Shu, don't you want to ...... Your Majesty?"

"Zhaorong rest assured," Pei Zhenwan was very calm, or it was more appropriate to use indifference, "It is common for countries to fight each other, and it is common for them to attack cities and plunder land, and I have never regarded Emperor Chen as an enemy in my heart." ”

Shen Zhaorong breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "That's fine." ”

Pei Zhenwan looked at her lightly, not knowing whether her relieved breath was for herself or for Emperor Chen.

"You and I are both from a family of military generals, so naturally we also know that military generals are not defending their families and defending the country, or sending troops to other places. From a small point of view, it is nothing more than who is right and who is wrong, there are always victories and defeats, but if you look at the big picture, throughout the ages, the kings of that generation who opened up their territories did not point their swords at other countries? The tragedy of Fengcheng cannot be blamed on Chen sending troops, in the final analysis, Shu's internal affairs are chaotic, Emperor Shu is stupid, traitors are in power, and Emperor Chen can't complain. ”

Shen Zhaorong nodded: "It's rare that you can think of it like this, I admire you from the bottom of my heart." ”

smiled lightly, revealing a relieved look: "It's really comfortable to be able to meet Zhaorong frankly today." Pei Zhenwan raised the tea cup in her hand, "Today's alliance has been decided, I hope to replace wine with tea, and I will not regret this agreement." ”

"This promise must be kept."

The two have the same mind, and how to help Shen Zhaorong take the first step in the future naturally has a tacit understanding. Pei Zhenwan called the agar in, and put the Nanshu flavor dishes brought by Liushang on the table, the special flax cakes made in Shu, and in an instant, it seemed that several people had pulled back the time when they were in Nanshu.
