97 Frontier Storm
"And the king of southern Yunnan, I don't know how to react when I receive the news of Pang Shicong's death." Zhao Guang's worries are one after another.
Sun Delu didn't know how the king of southern Yunnan would react, so he didn't speak.
Zhao Guang returned to the desk and sat down, and those unapproved pieces were piled up like a mountain, and he was not allowed to be idle.
At this moment, Zhao He was not idle in his bedroom, looking at those books about Beihu, but he was quite interested in reading them, not for anything else, just because Shen Yuexi had told her about Youzhou City, and the Shen family was destroyed, she was a little curious about Beihu, and these books could make her know more about Beihu, this nation on horseback, fierce, fierce, starting from a nomadic people, growing little by little, founding the country, becoming more and more unstoppable.
"Why did the emperor show you these books?" Juan'er watched from the side and asked.
"You really don't understand?" Hearing this kind of question, Zhao He was a little strange.
Juan'er shook her head blankly.
Zhao He smiled faintly, "You want me to marry Beihu and his relatives in the future." ”
Juan'er was taken aback, and looked at the calm Zhao He in disbelief, "I heard that the winter there is extremely cold, and it will freeze people's noses and ears." ”
Zhao He smiled, but he couldn't tell Juan'er that Shen Yuexi had been in the frontier for ten years, and her nose and ears were fine.
But Juan'er was already seriously worried, "Princess, you go and beg the emperor, don't let you go and kiss." ”
Juan'er has served Zhao He for so long and has been doing her best, but she has not learned the slightest bit of intelligence from her master.
"Do you think that the matter of kissing is a family play, so you don't have to take it seriously?" Zhao He's tone was light and light, "Who else is suitable in this palace besides me?" ”
Juan'er thought blankly, yes, the princesses in the palace are either only ten years old, or they are already married, and the only princess of the right age is the thirteenth princess.
"Princess, aren't you afraid?" Juan'er asked, almost crying.
"Are you afraid? Isn't it still coming when it's time to come? Zhao He put down the scroll, got up, and walked to the door, "It's better to face it calmly than to be afraid." ”
Listening to Zhao He's words, Juan'er seemed to be greatly encouraged, she followed, and said firmly: "Anyway, no matter what, Juan'er will go wherever you go, princess, and Juan'er will always follow you." ”
"You have also reached the age of marriage, when I ask the imperial brother for a favor, you will go out of the palace to find a good family, a place like Beihu, don't go." Zhao He smiled at Juan'er.
Juan'er was really panicked now, she stomped her feet, "The slave maid does not leave the palace and does not marry, if you really ask the emperor, then you will ask for the slave's life." ”
Juan'er's emotions were sincere, Zhao He could see it, so he sighed, "If you keep following me, it will delay your life." ”
"You kicked me out of the palace to delay my life, how affectionate men are in the world, princess, how do you know that I will meet a person who values love and righteousness, it is better to be pure and comfortable." Juan'er pouted.
She can have this experience and awareness, Zhao He was a little surprised, so he nodded, "Then if I really want to go and kiss, you can go together, just be careful of your nose and ears, it won't look good if it's frozen." ”
Juan'er burst into tears and laughed, "Freeze it, freeze it, probably the people there don't have noses and ears." ”
When he said this, Zhao He also smiled.
Then, Zhao He looked at the sky in front of him through the high eaves and fell into deep thought.

On the day Zhao Zheng and Shen Yuexi set off, Hexi took Tilt Er to see them off at the gate of the mansion.
Zhao Zheng picked up Qian'er and kissed her on the cheek, "When Daddy comes back, I'll bring you fun things." ”
"Daddy, when are you coming back?" Dumpling asked in a milky voice.
"Daddy doesn't know when he'll come back, but Daddy will come to see you in your dreams." Zhao Zheng said softly to Qian'er.
For this porcelain-like daughter, Zhao Zheng's love is getting more and more.
"Okay." Tilt smiled with crooked eyes.
Shen Yuexi looked at this father and daughter, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she was so cute that she couldn't help it.
After talking to Tilter for a while, Zhao Zheng asked Hexi to hug Tilt'er, and then asked Steward Yang some more things, then turned around and nodded to Hexi, and got into the carriage with Shen Yuexi.
The carriage was set with three horses, Lang Kuo and Xiao Luzi sat on the boards on both sides of the carriage, and with a whip, the horses pulled the carriage and went away.
Shen Yuexi was silent in the carriage, this long trip was different from any previous time, and her heart was a little heavy.
Zhao Zheng understood Shen Yuexi's mood, reached out and hugged her in his arms, comforting her wordlessly.
The carriage went out from the south gate and went all the way south.
There are a lot of passers-by on the official road to the south, and from time to time there are pedestrians or carriages coming towards them, and passing by, Shen Yuexi is crooked in Zhao Zheng's arms, quietly looking at the scenery outside the rolled up curtain.
The frontier is far away, and I really don't know when I can get there after such a bumpy journey.
But Shen Yuexi didn't ask much, on the way, she had to minimize the trouble she brought to others, don't be noisy, and take care of herself.
Wait until you reach the frontier one day and enter Youzhou City...... Will you see the clumsiness?
**
Rewind time two months ago, Beihu. Youzhou City. The Shen family's house. The time is early November.
He had just returned from the clumsy civil strife in Beihu, and he didn't even return to his general's mansion, so he came to the Shen family.
The door of the Shen family's mansion was closed, and the seal of the government was pasted on the door. Seeing the seal, the clumsy heart sank, and a sense of foreboding rose from the bottom of my heart.
Then, he climbed over the wall and entered.
The courtyard is still the same as yesterday, but it's lifeless.
Suddenly, while carefully looking at everything around him, he slowly walked towards the middle courtyard.
In the middle courtyard, the door of Shen Qingshan's study, a member of the Shen family, was open, and when he looked through the open door, it was dim inside, revealing a desolate and strange atmosphere in the twilight of this cold winter.
Clumsy walked into the study, a dark brown mark on the floor of the study made Flicker's eyes stop, as a general, he had killed countless people on the battlefield, he knew what that dark brown trace was, it was a pool of dried blood.
I have never been afraid of dead bodies, but after seeing this pool of blood, I only felt a cold breath rising from the soles of my feet, straight to my head, happy, happy......
I didn't have time to think about it, and I raised my legs to leave the study, but at the moment I turned around, I caught a glimpse of a pair of feet behind the screen in the study.
Suddenly, he pulled out a long knife from his waist and slashed straight at the screen, the knife wind was fierce, and the screen instantly split in half.
Behind the screen, a thin man, holding a few scrolls of calligraphy and painting on an inkstone in his arms, glanced at it clumsily, took a few steps back, shrank in the corner of the wall, and trembled like chaff.
"Who are you? Why here? There was a hidden killing intent in his clumsy voice.
Suddenly the momentum was too strong, and he was wearing a general's uniform, the man didn't dare to look directly, so he replied resignedly: "I, little Tiger Er, lost the gambling and didn't have any money, thinking about coming here to see if I could turn over some valuable things to pawn." ”
"What's going on here?" Clumsily asked again.
Hu Er glanced at him timidly, "You just entered the city?" Two months ago, the Shen family was wiped out, and this matter was a sensation. ”
Hearing the word "extinguishing the door", the chill just now exploded in the clumsy body, and Yue Xi died?
"Do you know who the murderer is?"
"Don't say it's small, I don't know, even the government hasn't found out who did it." Tiger Er muttered.
Hu Clumsy didn't ask any more questions, pulled Hu Er out of the corner of the wall, and carried him to the yard: "Don't run." ”
Leaving these three words, he walked to the backyard in a clumsy manner.
The backyard is the boudoir of Shen Yuexi, the eldest lady of the Shen family, Shen Yuexi, is the beloved of the clumsy, the king of Beihu once promised the clumsy that as long as he calmed down the civil strife in the Beihu, he could abolish the ancestral decree that the Beihu nobles were not allowed to intermarry with other races in order to be clumsy.
Suddenly set out for two months and returned triumphantly, at this moment, all he wanted to see was Shen Yuexi.
And the Shen family, things are not people.
Shen Yuexi's boudoir was furnished as before, but it was messy and dusty. On the boudoir bed, the apricot yellow quilt is spread out, this is Shen Yuexi's favorite color, she once said to him, covered with an apricot yellow quilt, even the cold winter seems to be much warmer.
And now, the apricot yellow quilt is still there, where is the beauty? Suddenly, I felt a tearing pain in my heart. Then he settled down, turned and strode away.
When he arrived in the middle courtyard, Hu Er was still there, and he really didn't dare to run. He dragged him under the wall in the front yard, then grabbed him by the back of his neck and threw him out of the wall.
After a while, I heard a scream from the tiger who landed on the ground.
Suddenly, he climbed over the wall and went straight to the Youzhou City Government.
In front of the yamen, two guards on duty stopped Clumsy's whereabouts, and Clumsy didn't bother to report his name, so he pushed Hu Er to one of the guards, "This guy broke into the house and stole and sent him to prison." ”
Then, Clumsy pushed the other guard away and walked in.
Bypassing the county government hall in the front yard, behind it is the residence of the county magistrate Zhang Wenwen. At this moment, it was dinner time, and Zhang Wenwen was preparing to eat in the dining room. But I could hear the noise outside, and it was the two guards who dragged Hu Er and shouted all the way to chase after him.
Seeing this, Zhang Wenwen panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to meet: "I don't know that the general is coming, and the lower officials are missing to welcome ......."
Hu Clumsy didn't have the patience to listen to Zhang Wenwen's official words, and interrupted him, "Let me ask you, why was the Shen family sealed?" ”
Sure enough, it was for the Shen family's affairs, Zhang Wenwen only felt that his knees were weak, and it was rumored in Youzhou City that Hu Clumsy and the eldest lady of the Shen family had a deep affection, and this time the Shen family suddenly suffered a catastrophe, and it was within his own jurisdiction, and the murderer has not been investigated so far, I hope Hu Clumsy will not be angry with him because of this matter.
"Not long after the general left, a major incident occurred in Youzhou City, some unknown people infiltrated the Shen family and killed all the people of the Shen family."
"What about Shen Yi? Even Shen Yi died? He asked.
Shen Yi is Shen Yuexi's brother, and his fist and foot skills are not bad, if it is done by ordinary gangsters, Shen Yi can also maneuver for a while.
"Yes, Shen Yi is also dead, and they are all buried together at the foot of Nanshan...... But the body of the eldest lady of the Shen family was not seen. Zhang Wenwen suddenly added.
