Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Belt
Shen Xian tilted her head to look at him and asked, "Then why did the prince come here?" ”
"This is what the king asked you."
Shen Xian shrugged: "No conflict, if the prince doesn't come, how will he know that I am here?" After speaking, he smiled slyly and approached Shi Ling: "Moreover, why does the prince care where I am?" ”
She roared wildly in her heart, hoping that Shi Ling would immediately admit that he cared about the chaos, and it was for her Shen Xian to come!
A pair of eyes looked at Shi Ling brightly, as if they wanted to stare him out of a hole.
Say! Say you care about me!
"This king, I don't care."
Shen Xian pouted in some disappointment.
"Oh, then why are you asking me why I'm here? I thought the prince was still angry with me. ”
Shi Ling was a little irritable in his heart, and finally had to stare at Shen Xian, and then went straight around her and entered the house.
Shen Xian was proud in her heart.
Men, duplicity, they all understand.
So he immediately grabbed him: "Oh, I said that's it, don't go in and disturb the child's treatment." ”
Does he bother? He brought all the people with him.
But I don't know why I really followed Shen Xian at the door of the house, there was a willow tree not far from the door of the house, Shen Xian didn't want to bask in the sun, so she just pulled him to the willow tree to shade.
Shi Ling leaned on the willow tree and listened to her say seriously: "Although I was startled by her yesterday, I saw the red belt around her waist. ”
Shi Ling: "What's so special about this?" ”
After speaking, he frowned, this Shen Xian stared at the human belt all day long.
After speaking, he quietly glanced at the belt he was wearing today, inlaid with gold and jade.
"The red belt is not strange, but it is a hot red, this color is rarely used in clothing because it is too bright, it is generally the army's self-supplies for newly recruited soldiers, and because the material is more special, I have only seen it on the soldiers who are going to garrison the border pass."
In fact, when she sent Shi Yu to the northwest, she paid more attention to it and found that most of the soldiers had such red belts tied around their waists, and she was already interested in colors and clothes and jewelry, so she paid more attention.
As soon as she finished speaking, Ling also immediately realized that something was wrong.
Squinting slightly, she seemed to begin to recall the belt on the woman's body, which was indeed familiar, but not as carefully as Shen Xian observed.
Shen Xian frowned slightly and sighed: "I think that if that woman is really the daughter of the soldiers stationed at the border pass, but she lives a life of starvation, bullying, and no money to find a doctor for the child, I feel very heartbroken." ”
Although it is now very strong, the border is not peaceful, and there are often small fights and small fights from other countries, but there will still be casualties after all.
Soldiers are far away from their homeland, leaving their relatives to go to the other side, and suffering from the scorching wind and sand day and night, in order to protect the country and their relatives from being harmed by the enemy country?
If they know that when they are desperately defending the land, their relatives are being bullied by the people they are protecting, they must be extremely chilled.
Shi Ling read: "Garrison the border pass..."
Shen Xian looked at him: "Yes, if you don't believe it, the prince can go and take a look, if I say something wrong, you can punish him." ”
Shi Ling raised his eyes.
"Punishment?" There was a hint of evil taste in his heart, and he tilted his head and smiled: "Do you know what the king's punishment is?" ”
Although his words sounded a little frightening, he was now half-leaning against the willow tree, looking at himself with a smile, and his lazy and casual appearance felt like he was fishing for her!
Shi Ling's appearance at the moment is completely hooking her soul!
Shen Xian couldn't help but swallow her saliva, touched her neck and pursed her lips and smiled: "The prince won't beat me again, right?" ”
"Yes, just hit the board."
After speaking, he also glanced at Shen Xian's buttocks, as if predicting what kind of miserable state her ass would be at that time.
Shen Xian hurriedly put her hands behind her back to cover her buttocks, and retorted vigorously: "No! I can't leave a scar, I don't want to. ”
Shi Ling couldn't help but laugh and coughed lightly, pretending to be serious: "Do you still know that you can't leave a scar, the scar on your hand is complete?" That's the end of deceiving this king, do you know you're afraid? ”
"Is the prince really willing?"
"Really willing."
Shen Xian's face instantly drooped, and she glanced at him aggrievedly, then turned around and ran back to cover her buttocks and beg for comfort from Xiangnong.
Xiangnong looked at her aggrieved young lady, and then looked at the prince who was suddenly in a good mood, and she was confused for a while, so she had to hug her first and comfort her.
It took a long time for Ah Feng to come out of the house, and he heard the faint cry of the child immediately, Shen Xian's heart was completely relaxed, so he took Shi Ling into the house together, and happened to see the woman holding the child who had just woken up and preparing to come out.
When he saw a few people, he suddenly knelt on the ground with red eyes.
"Oops! Why are you kneeling again. ”
Shen Xian wanted to go up and help her, but the woman cried and shook her head and said, "Bodhisattva, let me kowtow to you, you saved my child and saved my life!" ”
After speaking, she put the child aside and kowtowed to Shen Xian reverently.
Shen Xian didn't feel good in her heart, and when she saw that she couldn't get up, she simply squatted down and talked to her.
"Tell me, what's your name, the father of the child?"
The woman took the child back into her arms and said sadly: "My surname is Zhou, they all call me Siniang, my husband..."
It took a long time to endure the pain and say, "My husband is dead." ”
Shen Xian was stunned, turned around and met Shi Ling's eyes, and the latter frowned: "Your husband is a border guard?" ”
Thursday Niang looked up in surprise, and then nodded.
Really.
Shen Xian's guess is not wrong at all, but the families of the soldiers stationed in the frontier will be taken care of by special care, and the monthly silver money is more than that of other soldiers, even if they die on the battlefield, there will be a pension, not to mention being bullied like this, don't even have money to buy rice.
So Shen Xian asked, "Then why did you go to the roadside to beg?" Have you spent all that pension? ”
"Pension?" Thursday Niang was confused: "What pension?" I don't even see a copper plate! ”
Shi Ling's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and he asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
"Two months ago, someone from the imperial court came, saying that my husband was a deserter but died at the hands of the enemy, and only brought it back... His belt, because he was regarded as a deserter, the court did not give me a pension, and the neighbors around me began to sneer at me when they heard that my husband had become a deserter, and they were embarrassed..."
She cried even louder as she spoke, and she shook her head frantically: "But I know he's not!" I still remember his proud appearance when he said that he joined the army, wearing a military uniform and saying that he wanted to make meritorious contributions and make me look like the general's wife, how could he be a deserter with all his martial arts! ”
The more Zhou Niang talked, the more excited she became, and finally she almost fainted because of physical exhaustion, but fortunately, Shen Xian hugged her.
Slowly looked at Shi Ling, with some pleading in his eyes.
The latter quietly clenched his fists and asked softly, "What's your husband's name?" ”
Thursday Niang looked at Shi Ling weakly, a little vigilant, and didn't dare to speak.
Shen Xian hurriedly explained: "It's okay, he is King Xuan, if your husband really didn't run away, he will definitely help your husband rehabilitate, he is a good person!" ”
Shi Ling's eyes fell on Shen Xian's expression.
He is... Good?
