Sending Yuan Yi away, Chubby's physical condition was guaranteed, Li Qi's burden of dyeing incense was also lifted, and the whole territory of the Northland was waiting for him, and everyone thought that the southward movement was close at hand.

But Li Qian was not in a hurry, and Shen Qiutan did not ask, on an ordinary night, Shen Qiutan leaned on Li Qi's chest and handed him the recipe for gunpowder and the drawings of firearms.

"It turns out that I am always afraid of changing too much, but if this war is imperative, I hope that the war will end sooner, and I hope that you can control the use of force and weapons, and while killing, deterrence and mercy are still there."

Li Qi was surprised: "This is ......"

"An upgraded version of firecrackers, but the power is not the same, find an open place to try." Firecrackers have appeared at this time, but there is no precedent for them to be used in the military, not to mention that Shen Qiutan has accurately proportioned them, and the power is naturally extraordinary.

The huge difference in weapons brings not only the changes themselves, but also the impact on the times and the blessing of the battle situation.

If it is used well and the enemy knows the power and gap, maybe some enemies only need to be deterred, and there is no need to fight further.

Of course, these are just some of Shen Qiutan's "naïve" views, and no one knows what happened before it happened.

Li Qian held the drawings, and his eyes turned from surprise to shock.

"You sleep tonight, I'll go to the armory." It looks like I can't wait for a moment.

Shen Qiutan had expected this, she guessed that Li Qian had personally built muskets and artillery according to the drawings, but she had no regrets, she closed her eyes and no longer worried about right and wrong.

…………

The summer passed slowly, and when everyone was waiting for Li Xuan to send troops south, Li Xuan never moved.

And Shen Qiutan waited for news from Beijing.

Shan Nai retreated left and right, handed the letter sent by Jingli to Shen Qiutan, Shen Qiutan read it quickly, and it was difficult to loosen his brows: "How come?" My father didn't have a secret relationship with the people with the surname Lian, and even among the people he came into contact with, except for a few servants in the family, there was no one with the surname Lian? ”

She clasped the letter on the table, still feeling unacceptable.

Could it be that those in her dreams are not the "reproduction" of her past experiences, not her memories, but just her simple dreams, imaginary?

How can it be? After so many years, she had so many dreams, and she treated them all as real memories......

"Are you okay?" Yamanai was a little worried.

Shen Qiutan asked, "Are you sure the news was sent by Qin Lang?" ”

Shannai nodded, Qin Lang is now in charge of the intelligence of the entire Gyeonggi, and there should be no mistake in the news he sent, but what kind of news did he send that made Niangniang so out of shape.

"Go down, I'll be quiet."

Shen Qiutan slumped in his chair and didn't move for a long time.

She really has to take care of the "dreams" she once had.

…………

On August 15, the northern strata were dyed with beautiful forests.

The wind was cool, and there was still the aroma of moon cakes, Xiao You sniffed and followed behind Shen Qiutan, staring at the oven with a pair of big eyes: "Mother, how long will it take?" ”

The voice was soft and crisp, how could there be such a soft and cute child, Shen Qiutan nodded his son's little nose: "Play with your brother for a while, and when your father comes back, the cake will be baked." ”

"Oh, okay." Xiao You happily ran away, and the red maple leaves fell in his hair.

Shen Qiutan, she still remembers the way Li Qian hugged her and left at the fragrance tasting party in Changshou, it was also autumn, and the fallen leaves floated into her hair. In a blink of an eye, so many years have passed, and they already have three children, but the past seems to be close at hand.

Parting is also close at hand.

"What are you thinking?"

Shen Qiutan turned around: "Why is it so early today?" ”

The maple trees rattled, and Li Qian was still wearing a dark robe, which made his face whiter and his eyebrows more and more. Time has not left any mark on his face, but he has gray hair on his temples, and there are still quite a few of them.

Seeing that his wife was stunned, Li Qi stepped forward: "What are you looking at?" ”

"Look at you."

"Me?" After Li Qi asked, he followed the tips of his ears and brought out a little red: "What do I have to look at?" ”

Shen Qiutan snickered, after so many years, he is an old husband and wife, and he is still shy? She sneered: "It's beautiful everywhere, I'm going to see it for a while!" ”

Li Qian touched his nose: "I really think about it, don't you go with me?" ”

"I'm not worried about Ling'er and Qian'er, but Xiaoyou's health is not good, if I travel a long distance with the army, I'm a little worried, so it's better to follow behind and walk slowly." Speaking of business, Shen Qiutan put away his jokes.

"Hmm." Li Qian nodded.

He is not at ease about handing over his children to others, but with all the children with him, in case ...... What if something happens to him......

Now with his eldest son and eldest daughter, it seems that the best way to leave the younger son with his wife.

"There is no absolute security in the world, we will do everything we can, and the rest depends on the will of God." Shen Qiutan leaned over: "Moreover, we are just walking slower, not that the two places are separated." ”

She never pointed fingers at the battle situation, she specialized in the art industry, and no matter how she knew, she couldn't understand the generals and strategists around Li Xuan.

Walking slower and walking in the rear of Li Xuan's army, on the one hand, she can take care of her youngest son's physical condition, and on the other hand, she still wants to find Lian Jingxing's whereabouts.

He was about the same age as Shen Qiutan's father, if there was no accident, he would be about forty years old now, maybe he changed his surname or first name for some reason, maybe he died, but in his dream, Shen Qiutan saw his appearance clearly.

And people can always leave traces in their lives, that is, secret guards like Zhou Qizhong also have their own names.

Lian Jingxing, who has obviously crossed paths with his father and that "His Highness" more than once, how can there be no traces?

Therefore, it must be deliberately erased.

…………

The night was dark, and the laughter of children could be heard.

"Sister, you're so funny, hahaha!" Xiao You's voice was crisp, and he pulled Li Zhen's sleeve again: "Brother, why don't you laugh?" It's so funny! ”

Li Zhen looked at his younger brother's expectant eyes, and he couldn't continue to "make a face", he touched the top of his brother's hair: "My brother has heard too much, so he doesn't want to laugh so much." ”

Xiao You is more than three years old, and he and Chubby will soon be seven years old.

As he grew taller and taller, and Li Chen's teaching of him became stricter and stricter, the little Li Qian already had an unsmiling temperament.

"Oooh!" Xiao You nodded to his brother and ran forward: "Daddy, mother!" Are the rounds ready? ”

Chubby Li Ling followed behind: "It's a moon cake, not a round cake." ”

"What's the matter? The moon is round, the bread is round, and the taste is the same!" Xiao You pounced, and Li Qi hugged him.

Shen Qiutanwaner: "Eat first, then eat moon cakes!" ”

However, when she turned her head, she found that her daughter had already taken a moon cake, and praised: "Mother, is this the Hu cake that people in the capital love to eat?" It's delicious, and there's egg yolk in it! Hmm, delicious! ”

"Mother, I want to eat too!" Xiao You followed.

Although Zhuang Zhuang didn't speak, he also looked at Shen Qiutan longingly.

Shen Qiutan said helplessly: "One for each of Qian'er and Ling'er, half of Xiaoyou, there is no more." "If you eat too much, you will get tired.

Seeing the happy appearance of the children, Li Qian said to Shen Qiutan: "The capital, it's time to go back, the children don't know what the capital looks like yet." ”
