"I don't want to give in to those crooked melons and cracked dates, so ah...... Let's wait and see! I really can't choose someone, I'd rather not get married, anyway, my father can't force me, and my brother is willing to support me, I can't wronged myself. ”

Xu Zhenzhen's tone has always been bright, and she does not reveal the slightest resentment, this is the confidence that someone really pampers and protects, and even when she says this, she is extremely confident.

This self-confidence is still like innate.

"I envy you." Pei Jinzhen said sincerely, didn't she ever want to get married? But no matter what, she will not have the confidence of Xu Zhenzhen. If she really wants to fulfill her wish, she doesn't know how many twists and turns she will have to go through, and it will be a tragic victory of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred. Of course, winning is also a fluke, and it is very likely that it will be a defeat or a fiasco.

However, what she says now, it is all in vain, a marriage edict, she is now tightly tied to Yan Chong, and she can't break free.

Let alone...... After all these things, she didn't want to break free.

In the final analysis, in this life, even if she is no longer as stupid and dull as a pig in her previous life, in the end, in the end, she is still an ordinary to a little cowardly girl, who does not like to change, and is at peace with what she encounters.

Only, if someone wants to bully her as soft and glutinous as a persimmon, then she can also give birth to all kinds of courage to fight.

In short, it is still the same sentence, she has changed, Yan Chong is no longer him in his previous life, they can always work together and walk out of a different path from the previous life.

"What do you envy me?" Xu Zhenzhen looked at her suspiciously, "On the contrary, I should envy you, right?" Second Brother Yan was in the hunting ground at that time, so he can be attentive to you. "I didn't use barbecue to bribe her and Lu Yueling, just to be alone with Jinji.

Pei Jinzhen pursed his lips and smiled, "You don't need to be envious, it's just that your fate hasn't arrived." ”

"Maybe! I borrowed your good words. Xu Zhenzhen said with a smile.

Coming out of the palace, Pei Jinzhen couldn't wait to go home. Counting the days, today, it is exactly ten days since Yan Chong's last letter, and the letter should come again.

But the letter did not come.

Pei Jinzhen was a little disappointed, but he thought that the border pass was so far away from here, and there would be some delays, so just wait, perhaps, tomorrow, the letter should arrive.

Who knows, this is day after day.

Pei Jinzhen's heart became more and more uneasy.

This time, he didn't wait for Yan Chong's letter, but Pei Shiqin, who returned from the next dynasty, waited for bad news.

"The border pass was eight hundred miles faster, and the battle report was delivered. Five days ago, the Di people were menacing and began to attack the city. Somehow, it actually broke through Ningyang Pass. ”

"Ningyang Pass?" Pei Jinzhen's face changed in shock, she remembered that it was Yan Cen who was guarding Ningyang Pass. And Yan Chong was also in Ningyang Pass at that time.

"The Di people are ferocious, after breaking through Ningyang Pass, they wantonly slaughtered the people in the pass, and the entire Ningyang Pass almost became a dead city. His Majesty Long Yan was furious, he had already issued a death order, and this time, he must have paid for the blood debt of the Di clan. ”

Pei Jinzhen's heart pounded when she heard this, not only because she was worried about Yan Chong's safety, but also because she was worried about the safety of Jing'anhou's father and son, after all, in her previous life, she ......

There is also Ningyang Pass...... She had lived there for a few days, and Yan Chong took her to almost the entire Ningyang Pass. That border city is actually not big, and the people live in earthen houses, which complement each other with the yellow sand in the sky.

But the people in the city are also very simple. They had eaten the bread sold by the old woman, and they were worried that they would not be able to eat it so hard, so they made a special trip to bring them soup that did not cost money.

Yan Chongtong's heart was still unsettled, and he took her to try the spinning top with a few children at the end of the street, laughing and laughing.

They also went to find an old man who had traveled to the Di tribe and listened to him talk about the customs and customs of the Di people......

All of these things are so vivid.

Pei Jinzhen's throat was astringent, and he closed his eyes fiercely, not daring to think about it anymore, let alone thinking about what kind of tragic scene the dead city in Pei Shiqin's sentence would be.

The atmosphere in the room stagnated slightly, and after a while, Xiao Yuan asked, "Marquis of Jing'an...... And how about Yan Ergongzi? Have you ever inquired? ”

Pei Shiqin glanced at Pei Jinzhen and shook his head hesitantly, "Your Majesty is so angry that you don't dare to inquire." However, the Marquis of Jing'an is in charge of the northwest, and if he is defeated, he will always be safe to protect himself. ”

Because of the news of the defeat of Ningyang Pass in the northwest, the entire Fengjing City was like a sudden storm, which washed away the joy and peace of the previous two days in an instant, and became a little noisy.

Only, after that, what was the situation at the border pass, but it was completely covered.

Except for Emperor Yonghe and a few close ministers, no one else knew about it.

And Yan Chong completely cut off the news.

Pei Jinzhen corresponded with Xiao Lingxi and made a special trip to ask about it, but who knows, there is no news in the palace.

Probably because of the suspicion, Pei Jinhuan has rarely been summoned to the imperial study recently, so there is really no news at all.

However, Emperor Yonghe's move made Pei Jinzhen feel more and more uneasy.

Pei Jinzhen looked calm on the surface, but the people around her knew that the time the girl spent practicing calligraphy every day was getting longer and longer.

Pei Jinzhen didn't notice that Zhu Luju, and even the entire Pei Mansion were talking and acting in front of her, and they all became cautious. But...... She couldn't help it.

On this day, I happened to receive a letter from Ji Shuya, saying that she had already set off.

It's been almost half a month since this letter was sent.

Pei Jinzhen thought about it for a while, and asked Mama Yuan's son to go to Tongqu Wharf every day to guard.

On this day, when she got the news, she changed her clothes for going out, let people put on a carriage, and went to the pier.

The carriage kicked and stomped, and in a few moments, a small and uniform rustle sounded on the roof of the carriage.

It was raining.

The first spring rain of the year, on this day, came unexpectedly.

Pei Jinzhen lifted the curtain and looked out, in the drizzle and haze, the willow trees were faintly green, and the spring rain was as expensive as oil. No matter what happens in the world, the sun and the moon and the seasons alternate as usual.

It's just that this situation is the same as when Ji Shuya was sent away last year, but people's mood is completely different.

After traveling for more than two hours, the carriage arrived at the thoroughfare.

The rain is still dripping.

Not long after the carriage stopped, Mama Yuan's son, Yuan Er's steward, hurriedly came to report, "I just asked the little maid of the Ji family, and said that there was more than half an hour left for the appointment, and it was time to arrive." ”

Pei Jinzhen's eyes flashed, and he nodded lightly, "It's hard work." ”

At this moment, outside the carriage, a voice sounded.

"In the car, is it Miss Pei San?"

"It's Xiuwen." Green Branch lifted the curtain and looked at it for a moment, and replied in a low voice.

Ji Shuxuan has two personal servants, one Xiuwen and one Donghe.

"Miss Pei San, my son-in-law heard that you came to the dock to pick up my aunt and grandmother in person, I am not very grateful, it is raining, and the girl is inevitably cramped in the carriage, it is better to ask the girl to go to the teahouse over there to sit, our aunt's boat, I am afraid it will take a while to arrive."
