Just as Xiao Cong and his wife were exchanging views on the Wei Mansion, Wei Jingshou also met Zhou Quanhai and Song Shunqing, two cavalry captains, in the study, and asked in detail about the situation on the way to welcome the prince.

Zhou Quanhai first talked about the attack on Xiaoshahai.

Wei's father and son suddenly changed color.

"Straw eggs!" Wei Jingshou slapped on several cases, "Which way did the turtle grandson do it?" "Assassinating the prince in Tingzhou, isn't this a slap in the face?!

Zhou Quanhai said: "The prince didn't mention it, but eighty percent of those people looked like people from Euroton." ”

"Straw eggs!" The five langs in front of the Wei family scolded this sentence at the same time. The corners of Wei Liulang's mouth twitched, and he scolded, "Vertical son dares!" The five brothers in front all turned their heads to look at him, Wei Shilang sighed and touched his head, "The shaft of the grass egg has been made, and you still ask if you dare to do it!" "I almost didn't say that Rokuro, you're stupid to read.

Wei Tingbai raised his head, his eyes were very melancholy, mixed in this pile of rough people who don't like to read, he can't be elegant at all, it's this pile of "rough people" or his father and brothers, he can't change it if he wants to, life is really lonely like snow.

Wei Jingshou waved his hand here, "Don't mention these grass eggs first." You go on. ”

Zhou Quanhai talked about the details of the attack battle, and Song Shunqing added on the side.

These two people are not good at words, only dry descriptions, but even so, they can hear the Wei father and son frightened, especially the sneak attacker who suddenly came out of the sandstorm, which really makes people wipe a cold sweat.

The two captains mentioned that Xiao Yan admired it very much, and said that two arrows exploded two mid-stage Ascending Extreme Realms, and two arrows helped kill one late Ascending Realm. The rabbit falling a few times in the sandstorm was even more thrilling, and it was even more amazing that he was seriously injured and fell off the cliff unharmed, but both of them hid Shen Qingyi and fell off the cliff - this is Xiao Chengzhong's instructions, both of them understood that although the uncle and sister-in-law fell off the cliff together, it still had some impact on the reputation of Mrs. Shizi, and they ordered the people of the cavalry regiment not to mention this matter.

The Wei father and son looked at each other when they heard this. Wei Dalang was surprised: "This Seventeen Lang Jun is in the Extreme Realm? How old is he? ”

Zhou Quanhai affirmed: "It's the Ascending Extreme Realm, yes, I heard from the head of the guard, Xiao Xiaowei, who said it himself." He was also stunned at the time, and asked about his age, "Xiao Xiaowei said, seventeen Langjun is not yet sixteen. ”

"Hiss—fifteen-year-old Ascending to the Extreme Realm!" The six Lang Lang of the Wei family twitched in unison, demon!

"Hehe, the Guogong Mansion has another talent!" Wei Jingshou sighed, and immediately put Xiao Yan on the list of "must be close" in his heart.

And he asked about the deeds of the son.

The two lieutenants of Zhou and Song were careful, and they praised the prince in his words for acting in a lawful manner, being calm in danger, being benevolent to his subordinates, and taking care of the people's feelings.

Wei Jingshou listened carefully, and occasionally asked again, and after asking, he nodded slightly in his heart, and silently drew six circles for the "Prince of Liang Guogong", which represented six points of satisfaction. It remains to be seen how many circles can be drawn later, and if there are eight points of satisfaction, his sons have met a master to follow; If it's less than eight, it's time to think about the way back for your sons.

Zhou Quanhai and Song Shunqing glanced at each other, and talked about Mrs. Shizi, "The brothers who were injured this time are ...... because Mrs. Shizi is there."

The Wei father and son were stunned again.

Wei Erlang opened his mouth wide, "That Mo Dashan, is it really saved in the belly of the cow?" ”

Song Shunqing said: "What you have seen with your own eyes is absolutely true. ”

"Hey, hey, magic!"

"I knew earlier, we also cut the belly of the cow to save people!"

Zhou Quanhai hurriedly said: "Mrs. Shizi said that there are different types of blood from people and livestock, and these different kinds of blood transfusion cannot save people. Mo Dashan is lucky this time! Next time, I may not have such luck if I change to someone else. So it's a dead horse as a live horse doctor. He laughed, "This kid must be the ancestor of the accumulation of virtue, and the ancestral tomb is smoking!" ”

Several Lang of the Wei family were amazed.

Wei Jingshou touched the mustache on his chin and said: "It's true that Mo Dashan has luck, but if he hadn't met Mrs. Shizi, his great luck would have been in vain." That's what the book says, 'The great of learning'. ”

The corners of Wei Liulang's mouth twitched, "I don't hear the last words of the ancestors, and I don't know the greatness of learning", this is the words in "Xunzi Persuasion", "learning" refers to the holy words of the four ancestors of Xia Yu, Shang Tang, King Wen of Zhou, and King Wu of Zhou. Daddy is a doctor who happens to know how to cut the belly of a cow and save people, but he really can't use this sentence. He glanced at the five brothers who nodded in unison, and deeply felt that knowing too much knowledge was also as lonely as snow!

"You say, the fever of the four wounded soldiers has subsided? ......" Wei Jingshou carefully inquired about the details.

Compared with the kind of thaumaturgy that saved Mo Dashan, he paid more attention to the kind of miraculous antipyretic medicine used by Mrs. Shizi, and thought in his heart: If it can be supplied to the army in large quantities......

Wei Jingshou's sunken eye sockets slashed with light.

He also pulled Shen Qingyi into the ranks of "must be close" characters. Of course, it is not that he is close, but that his wife is communicative, and he is very relieved of his wife Ma's wisdom and communication skills.

Shortly after the eclipse the next day, General Wei and his wife went to the Grand View Courtyard and invited the prince and his wife and his brother to visit the homeland.

Xiao Cong and Shen Qingyi readily agreed.

Because the two families are only together, there is no need to talk about men and women avoiding taboos, and children and girls are all the way. The garden of the Wei family is mainly trees, planted in blocks with pine trees, cypress trees, lantern trees, catalpa trees, ash trees, etc., the flowers planted in the garden are also flowering trees, the magnolia trees that bloom in early spring are in full bloom in April and May in Tingzhou, and the thousand-leaf peach blossom trees that bloom in March are just □□ here, and the jade white and pure flowers lined with pink and tender buds have become a unique scenery.

Xiao Cong smiled and said, "The garden of the General's Mansion is eclectic, it's very interesting." ”

Just like Wei Jingshou, he is unique in his rough behavior.

When admiring the garden, everyone naturally divided into three groups, General Wei and the five Lang of the Wei family surrounded Xiao Cong is a group, Wei Liulang Tingbai took a few young brothers and Xiao Yan to walk away, and Mrs. Ma brought five daughters-in-law and six unmarried girls to Shen Qingyi is group.

After walking around the garden, the guests and hosts were very happy.

At this time, it was almost noon, and Xiao Cong and the three of them went back to the courtyard to change their big-sleeved shirts and gifts, and participated in the reception banquet held in the Tingzhou Thorn Mansion.

The reception banquet was mainly attended by state and county officials and court scholars.

Tingzhou Thorn Shi Yin Xueqin is a native of Zhenzhou, Hebei Province, and will serve for six years at the end of next year. According to the practice of the imperial court conferring the magistrate of Hexi Prefecture, the assassin will be transferred after a maximum of two terms, which is to prevent civil officials from staying in Hexi for a long time and becoming a "Hexi faction". Xiao Cong is quite dissatisfied with the governance ability of this Yin Thorn Shi, which can be seen from the people's livelihood conditions that he has seen and heard along the way. Seeing this assassin's exquisite appearance at the banquet again, he felt that he was a person who was used to doing superficial kung fu, and secretly thought about building a father, and tried to make this surnamed Yin transfer away as soon as possible and change to a doer. He has already crossed the history of Tingzhou Thorn, but he is silent in the entertainment room, and his gentle and elegant smile makes people feel like a spring breeze. Most of the civil officials and scholars at the banquet drew a circle for this prince.

After this day of resting, Xiao Cong began to officially patrol the army the next day.

He went to the barracks with Xiao Yan with him, which made her familiar with the affairs of the barracks faster, and she could adapt faster after going to the Jingnan Army.

Yesterday, the cavalry regiments of the two lieutenants of Zhou and Song have returned to the barracks, so the courage of the 17th Langjun of the Guogong Mansion has gradually spread in the Zhenwu army.

Xiao Yan does not refuse to compete with others.

The onlookers were in an uproar and cheered, Zhou Quanhai and Song Shunqing looked at the one-sided beater, and their hearts were very happy: If you don't believe it, hum!

In the evening, a family banquet will be held in the general's mansion, and the prince and his wife and the seventeenth Langjun will be invited to participate in the "casual banquet" in the mansion. Xiao Cong was also happy to be close to the General's Mansion, and after a few casual banquets, the relationship between the two sides took a step further. Sometimes the banquet ends early, after everyone eats a little, they gather indoors to play wooden shooting, men and women are grouped, the girl loses a few times and then stops, and the men and women are required to be mixed into groups, so when playing wood shooting, the men's applause and the women's laughter are often mixed together, which is very lively.

Xiao Yan has been a little unhappy recently.

She felt that since she came out of the small sand sea, Shen Qingyi had treated her a little differently.

It seems that she still cares about her from time to time, and her speech and attitude are the same as usual—but Xiao Yan feels different.

Shen Qingyi rarely made eye contact with her anymore, and even if he occasionally made eye contact, he didn't have the feeling of having a soul and a heart and mind.

Xiao Yan faintly felt that Shen Qingyi seemed to be alienating her.

It made her feel bad.

Did she do something to make my sister annoyed?

She wanted to ask directly, but this was subtle, like the people close to her, the fourth brother and Bai Su Qinghui, they didn't think that there was anything wrong with her sister treating her.

Xiao Yan could only be depressed in his heart.

This day is the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, Tingzhou also has the custom of dragon boat racing, and it is an annual event, the big clans in Tingzhou will send a dragon boat team to race on this day to win the bid, and the Zhenwu Army will also send a dragon boat team to participate. The reward for winning the bid is set by the state government, and this year, Xiao Cong has personally placed a reward for each of the top three. When the news came out, the scholars and merchants were enthusiastic, wanting to show themselves in front of the Xiao family. After the news spread by the state government announcement, the people were boiling, and those who did not participate in the dragon boat race also wanted to flock to the Changsai River to see the demeanor of the prince and his wife.

This is the Lanling Xiao Clan!

Under the royal family, the first family!

Therefore, this year's dragon boat race in Tingzhou is particularly lively, and there are thousands of people on both sides of the Changsai River five miles outside the north city of Tingzhou. Although many people can't see the prince and his wife on the high platform at all, if they can stand by the river, they will be able to talk about watching the dragon boat race with the son and Mrs. Shizi of the Xiao family in Lanling in a certain year!

When Xiao Cong got up and walked to the front of the stage, ready to ring the opening gong—in previous years, it was the Tingzhou Assassin and the Zhenwu Army Commander who took turns to open the gong—cheers suddenly rang out on both sides of the riverbank.

Xiao Cong smiled and raised his arm holding the drum hammer, and the end of the hammer wrapped in red silk nodded to everyone on the riverbank.

......The crowd became excited, cheering even more intensely, and at a glance, they saw 10,000 arms waving.

Tingzhou Thorn Shi's face changed slightly.

Wei Jingshou said with a smile: "This young and handsome Lang Jun is more popular than our old man!" In previous years, when a certain and Yin Yuanjun struck the gong, the people below were staring at the shirtless Langjun on the dragon boat. - Hey, I think back then, a certain was also a handsome and chic Langjun! ”

Tingzhou Thorn Shi burst out laughing, pointing at Wei Jingshou and laughing so much that he couldn't speak for a long time.

The left and right lieutenant generals of the Zhenwu Army and several Shi family heads sitting on the left and right sides also smiled and leaned back.

Governor Shi laughed and gasped, "General Wei, you are also very handsome and chic now." ”

The crowd burst into laughter again.

The left deputy general of Zhenwu Army was about to say, "Yes, yes, when we and the general were eating in the flower building, the flower lady just watched the general go", then remembered that there was still Mrs. Shizi sitting on the stage, and the sentence swallowed in his throat, and secretly said that it was dangerous.

Shen Qingyi smiled slightly, Wei Jingshou's gag removed the doubts of Tingzhou's assassination, and he was really a person who was rough on the outside and clever on the inside.

Xiao Yan also smiled, her eyes looked at the river, and she withdrew her gaze and looked ahead.

In front of her is Shen Qingyi.

"Boom!"

Xiao Cong struck the gong.

Almost at the same time, more than a dozen dragon boats on the river shot out like arrows, and the drums on the dragon boats beat like raindrops. Shocking shouts rang out on both sides of the riverbank. Wei Jingshou and the others on the high platform also commented with a smile, saying which dragon boat is how to watch it, Xiao Cong also said a few words from time to time, and the heads of each family also wanted to say something interesting, even if the dragon boat race did not achieve a good ranking, it could also make a good impression in Xiao Shizi's heart.

Everyone's interest was high.

Xiao Yan's interest was not very high, but fortunately, the mask was covered, and others could not see her face.

She looked at the river, but the corner of her eye fell on Shen Qingyi's side face from time to time.

She sat behind Xiao Cong, and when she slanted her gaze forward, she could see Shen Qingyi's side face as clear as snow.

There are half-body barriers on three sides of the high platform, and everyone is sitting cross-legged on the pot door couch. Shen Qingyi was sitting on his feet, his slender back was straight, a faint smile on his lips, and his eyes moved with the dragon boat, as if he was watching very attentively. But if you can look at her eyes closely, you will find that the gaze is divergent, and it is not looking at it at all.

Shen Qingyi's mind was focused on the back, and she knew that Xiao Yan was looking at her.

The hands in her sleeves clenched unconsciously, her lips pursed slightly, and her heart ached.

The author has something to say: understood, it will be painful.
