xxvi. Epistles

Zhu Chuan left, night fell, in the quiet courtyard, the marquee slowly turned, and the colorful streamers under the eaves.

Liang Siwan shook her fan and suddenly looked at the paper bag on the table.

Although the maid was silent, she was like a wooden pestle on the side, but she immediately noticed it, and leaned over and held it up: "Miss want to taste it?" He added with a smile, "It's time for a late-night snack." ”

Yes, she uses it casually for supper, and she doesn't care about what she eats, so what's wrong with the dried meat in the north?

Liang Siwan reached out and pinched one, put it to her mouth and slowly bit it.

The Northern Navy won the battle.

Winning battles is good for other people, but for those who grew up in the military, winning battles and losing battles is death.

Huo Lian didn't die, Zhu Chuan said that whoever dies Huo Lian won't die, then, who is that, who is it?

Liang Siwan chewed the jerky slowly, her body tensed, and she seemed to want to stand up and rush out to ask.

But.

What if you ask?

Will people be able to live?

The Seven Stars said what was familiar to her, and said that she had lost a lot, but there were still a lot of them.

It's ridiculous!

What, and then watching those who were still dead and disappearing, she really didn't understand why that Qixing and Huo Lian had to live! Happy?

Then she'll wait to see how long they can be happy!

Liang Siwan grabbed a piece of jerky and stuffed it into her mouth again.

Huo Lian also said that she was different.

What's the difference.

It's all grass mustard between heaven and earth, it's all the same!

The front yard of the Metropolitan Inspectorate was brightly lit, and several people gathered in the hall.

"The military report from the military department has also been delivered tonight." He turned to the others in the room and said, "But because the war is over, and the battle is won, they will not knock on His Majesty's bedchamber in the middle of the night." ”

"When the court discusses tomorrow, there is no trouble, but the noise is a reward or a punishment." One nodded and said.

His Majesty has already known in advance, and has made up his mind in his heart, he will not be confused by the court, nor will he be swayed by the court officials, and he can also influence the court officials.

Zhu Chuan stroked his palm: "Okay, then this matter is here." He smiled at everyone, "Brothers have worked hard, go and rest." ”

With this brother, the atmosphere in the hall relaxed, and Zhu Chuan, the deputy envoy acting on behalf of the Grand Governor, became their brother again.

"Zhu Chuan, are you just waiting to rest?"

"I saw it just now, yawning with my back to us."

"Poor Zhu Chuan, where did you need to use your brain before."

Zhu Chuan giggled with everyone: "Yes, yes." He also pointed to the scribe who was still struggling to write, "In fact, the brain still depends on the governor, and he teaches it." ”

Although Huo Lian was not in the capital, the Metropolitan Inspector conveyed all the movements in the capital in a timely manner.

"The governor killed most of the lords, Your Majesty doesn't know how happy he is, there must be a heavy reward, hurry up and tell the governor."

"It's a shame that I didn't see the Governor heroic!"

Zhu Chuan listened with a smile and laughed with everyone, "Of course I'm happy, Your Majesty seems to have conquered it yourself." "Forget it, you might be scared to death if you go, the people of the wilderness are actually really scary."

After a moment of laughter, everyone retired.

"When you're done, rest early." Everyone told Zhu Chuan again.

Zhu Chuan smiled and nodded: "After writing a letter to the governor, I will rest." ”

The people in the hall dispersed, and Zhu Chuan half sat on the table, looking at his hands under the lamp, humming a little song until the scribe got up respectfully: "My lord, it's written." ”

Zhu Chuan didn't raise his head: "Read." ”

The clerk hurriedly picked up a wad of paper on the table.

Zhu Chuan's voice came again.

"You don't need to read the official documents."

Every time I send a letter to Huo Lian, part of it is an official document of the Metropolitan Prosecutor, writing about daily affairs, the recent various snooping news, all sides of the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and then there is Zhu Chuan's private letter, writing about the people and things in the family, the simple personnel of the family, what Miss Wanwan eats and drinks, what fun is there in the capital recently, what strange gifts have been received at home, how hard he has worked, and so on.

There are more private messages than official documents, and the scribes are a little dry after reading them.

Zhu Chuan nodded: "It's well written, it's all what I want to say." He lifted his chin and said, "Take a sip of water." ”

The scribe hurriedly thanked him, and drank the herbal tea on the table as he said.

"Next, you write a few more words, which Your Majesty just ordered today." Zhu Chuan said.

The scribe hurriedly put down the teacup and picked up the pen: "My lord, please speak." ”

Zhu Chuan said: "Your Majesty is very happy to learn of this battle in the north, saying that the Governor has killed most of the lords, which is equivalent to His Majesty's personal conquest." ”

That must be, the scribe thought to himself, the pen is like flying, the governor is valued by His Majesty, and he has made meritorious contributions, and His Majesty's face is bright, and he must reward the governor.

But he held the pen and waited, but he didn't wait for Zhu Chuan's next words.

"My lord, and then?" The scribe couldn't help but raise his head and ask.

Zhu Chuan also raised his head, looked at him, and smiled: "Then hurry up and send the letter out, so that the governor will also be happy." ”

The scribe came back to his senses and understood, but it was gone, didn't His Majesty say anything about this matter? Only when you know Your Majesty's mind can you respond.

Maybe Your Majesty hasn't expressed his mind yet, after all, Zhu Chuan is acting on behalf of the governor, and His Majesty doesn't tell him so much.

"Yes, the lower official will arrange it."

The scribe withdrew, the hall became quiet, and Zhu Chuan leaned against the table as if he was distracted for a moment, and then stood up with his hands propped up.

"Alright." He said, "Go to sleep." ”

The secret room of Linglong Fang was brightly lit, and when the last sentence of Qixing's letter was read, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay Miss." The pheasant clasped his hands together and thought about it.

"Needless to say! How could something happen to Miss Seven Stars! Gao Xiaoliu leaned on the back of the chair and said, shaking the fan vigorously to dispel the dense sweat that came out of the tip of his forehead and nose, which showed that he was also worried before.

Shopkeeper Lu twisted his beard and smiled: "So it is a great achievement that Miss cut off the head of most of the masters." ”

Gao Xiaoliu sat up straight: "Yes, this is really a great achievement!" ”

Shopkeeper Lu's expression was also a little excited: "If you make this contribution, will you be able to show your identity to the imperial court, and the imperial court will also be able to look at our Momen again."

This is indeed a good opportunity.

But. Gao Xiaoliu frowned: "But Huo Lian, that bitch."

But it's going to take credit.

With that, he looked at the person sitting on the other side.

"Lord Liu, I've been sitting here for more than half a year, and I've been drinking tea for more than half a year, so it's your turn to contribute."

Liu Yan glanced at him: "What kind of strength?" ”

"Of course, it is to show the truth to the emperor and let the emperor know the great achievements of Miss Seven Stars." Gao Xiaoliu said, smiling again, "My father enveloped you before, wasn't it just to let you become his help, now, it's time for you to play a role." ”

The pheasant and the shopkeeper Lu couldn't help but look at Liu Yan, yes, they Momen can be regarded as someone in the court, and someone can speak for them.

Liu Yan's face was gloomy, what did he mean that he was a person in the middle of the Momen! He came here to sit and listen, in order to see if Momen had committed any crimes and violated the law!

At present, Momen has not committed any crimes, violated the law and discipline, and has been conscientious

"It's a good thing, it's not necessarily a bad thing." He said.

Isn't it a good thing to win a battle and make meritorious contributions? The pheasant was stunned, Gao Xiaoliu frowned, and the hand shaking the fan stopped.

He muttered under his breath, "Indeed."

"Things are good things, and good things are good things with the country and the people." Liu Yan continued, "But blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and what is good for some people may be a disaster for others. ”

"I don't care about others, Master Liu, you just say it." The pheasant asked urgently, "Is it a good thing or a bad thing for my young lady?" ”

Liu Yan looked at her: "It's not known yet, it depends on how Your Majesty decides on this matter." ”

"What's the conclusive here?" The shopkeeper Lu said, "If you win the battle and kill most of the masters, you will naturally be rewarded." ”

Liu Yan said: "The emperor's reward is not necessarily a reward. ”

Still twisting and turning, what was the pheasant about to say, the chair rattled, and it turned out to be Gao Xiaoliu, who was sitting, jumped up and slammed into the secret door on the side.

"I'm busy."

With this sentence the man has disappeared.

The pheasant swallowed back what he was about to say, and looked at the candle flame beating in the room, and his heart was also beating.

Compared with the excitement that the war in the north will cause when it goes to the capital, the border side has resumed its daily routine.

The dead were buried in the ground, the soldiers continued to patrol and watch, the people returned to their homes, and the originally lively business did not stop, caravans came and went to transport goods, and the daily trumpets of the quarries and woodyards sounded.

Outside the wounded barracks, there were also quite a few people walking around.

"Seven stars, look, I can really go." Chen Shi let go of his crutches, walked a few steps, and turned around to say.

Qixing, who was standing behind, nodded with a smile: "Yes, I walked very steadily." ”

Chen Shi walked back steadily: "So don't worry, I'm fine, I won't die." ”

Before Qixing could speak, the cat on the side laughed: "Sister Qixing, I see that you scared him, lest you burn him." ”

As he spoke, he grimaced at Chen Shi again.

"Shame, you're so bold."

Chen Shi waved at her with a little shame, "Go, go, what do you know, it's not that I'm afraid, I'm afraid."

The cat stretched out her voice, "Oh, I'm still afraid." ”

"I'm afraid I'll scare the Seven Stars!" Chen Shi said angrily, and then looked at Qixing, looking worried, "I scared you, scared you so much that you believed his nonsense back then." ”

Back then, Ah Mao stopped talking, and looked left and right obediently, waiting to hear the story.

Qixing shook his head: "I'm not scared, don't worry." After that, he smiled again, "Back then, I wasn't scared." ”

How could you not be frightened, Chen Shi said angrily: "Back then, you were so scared that you talked nonsense, you had to find your sister every day, saying that you could see your sister, but you had to use that sword, your aunt was frightened, and guarded you day and night, and it took a long time for you to return to normal and not say such things." ”

As a result, this time I saw that he was seriously injured, and I was about to imitate the burning of him back then and cast him into a sword.

"The one surnamed Luo said that he could survive if he forged a sword, and he could believe this kind of crazy talk? He is a madman, he wants to be a cadre Mo Ye, he wants to be the head of the house and wants to cast a famous sword and wants to go crazy, and Mo Ye is a human cadre and does not sacrifice the sword with his children, people jumped in by themselves, why didn't he jump in by himself and throw your sister and eldest daughter in! ”

The more Chen Shi spoke, the more excited he became, and his voice became choked when he said this.

"Poor eldest girl, she is only four years old, she is only four years old, what did she think in her heart when she was brought to the sword casting pool, is she afraid?"

He was afraid of death anyway, and the moment Qixing put him by the fire, with the boiling molten iron below, it was a feeling of suffocating despair.

Of course, he is not afraid of death, but this way of dying is really terrible.

A hand reached over and patted him on the shoulder.

Chen Shi raised his eyes.

Qixing looked at him calmly and said, "She, at that time, was not afraid. He paused again, as if to recall, "It doesn't hurt." ”

Chen Shiyi was stunned, not knowing how to react, was this Qixing's comfort to him, or was it a comfort to himself? Fantasy sister is not afraid of pain.

Just said that the little girl must be scared, no matter how you look at it, it's weird, and this topic can't be said anymore.

"Little girl, we—" He took a deep breath to change the subject.

The cat on the side called again: "Huo Dudu is here." ”

Huo Lian? Chen Shi frowned and turned around, and sure enough, he saw someone coming not far away, and among the gray guards around him, he was dressed in black and was particularly eye-catching.

Nasty, why is this guy here again.
