The second aunt said: "I don't know if you are full outside, but I have prepared a table of dishes and are waiting for you to come back to eat." ”

Erzhu nodded: "That's the right preparation, no matter how good the banquet is, it's not a place to eat and drink, so it's just a fool's errand, if you really want to eat, you still have to go home to eat." ”

The second aunt and Uncle Qiu nodded happily, knowing that Erzhu was still worried about the family when he went out, so he changed his mind when he didn't see how well he was outside, so he hurriedly asked someone to bring the food up and put it on the table.

They sat down as usual and sat together, and today's protagonist is Erzhu, so they want to listen to Erzhu's story about how much he has been outside for a year or two.

In fact, Lin Piao saw that he had matured a lot, the border environment was not good, he had lived a hard life for a year and a half, his skin was much rougher, and he showed his age at a glance, Ergou looked at him and was still in his early twenties, and Erzhu looked at him and already felt like he was twenty-five or sixteen, but when everyone got together, no matter how old Erzhu looked at him, he grinned at them, and he was still that stupid big man.

"The border is happy, and no one cares, we are the boss of the soldiers, unlike Shangjing, who has to take care of this and that, and things are not going well, anyway, it is a fight outside, and it doesn't matter whether it is dead or alive, and things are very simple."

Lin Piao saw that Erzhu was talking about things very simply, and Ergou also coaxed beside him: "Now Erzhu is really powerful, and this is the way to go." ”

Erzhu shook his head: "You don't understand, everything else is just talking about soldiers on paper, going to the border and going there for a pestle, there are many things that you will feel in your heart, just take the simplest thing, no matter how good the art of war is, but if you are timid, afraid of the head and tail, when you should pursue, you are afraid of a trap, when you should retreat, you are afraid that you will not be able to get the benefits, you are also afraid of that, you are not afraid of any art of war, the first thing you do when you go up, you are not afraid of anything, you stay in a place like the border, life and death are down, this is better than most of the people, and then you are brave, not afraid, and brave. Even if you don't know a single word, you are also a rare talent in the army, and the rest is what kind of art of war and strategy, without the front, the heart is not at ease, and the back cannot be used. ”

When Lin Piao saw Erzhu say this, he found that he was really an empiricist and had summed up a set of his own ideas.

"By the way, how do you fight the moon department, and the amazing skills that are spread outside will be passed out."

"Isn't this what the little sister-in-law you told me at the beginning, the general Wang pretended to be a merchant and lurked in the king's tent, three in, three out, four in and four out, I also disguised myself as a merchant, and the Moon Department did not want to do business with us, and captured us, and wanted to exchange us for ransom and silver money, I mixed in and found an opportunity to find out the distribution of their camp tents, and killed people secretly at night."

Because they were eating, Erzhu omitted a lot of content that affected everyone's eating, for example, after they were captured, they naturally did not have a good life, they were either locked in the stable, or they were locked in the sheepfold, picking up dung every day, sweeping dung, and their bodies were full of dung, when he went to attack at night, he deliberately chose the leader to do things, which was basically a foolproof moment, but the other party reacted very quickly, or reflexively jumped out of bed, and shouted that there was an assassin, but Erzhu did not give him more chances, and chased after him and killed him decisively.

Then they fled with their chief's head on their shoulders, fleeing like dogs, and at last they waited for reinforcements to complete the battle.

Small details, it doesn't matter.

Naturally, it is easy to say it in front of the family, so that the family members are less worried, and he has more face.

After hearing what he said, the second aunt couldn't wait to strip him of his clothes on the spot to see if there were any wounds left on his body: "You didn't suffer any injuries, did you?" What are those scars? I was so alone when I went out, and now I don't have any problems, right? ”

"No, there is nothing wrong with it, at most it is a little skin trauma, scratching the skin, but the scar is a little, the new scar is colored, and it will fade after two years."

Shen Hong looked at him: "How are you doing at Xiangjia now?" ”

"It's okay to be home."

As soon as Lin Piao heard his tone, he felt that he was not good, but when he saw that the second aunt was beside him, he didn't bother to ask, after all, the battlefield was dangerous enough, and the people who followed him were not good, and the second aunt had to die in a hurry.

They watched Erzhu eat and drink, he had some smell of wine, but there was no reason to drink when he came back, everyone only drank some fruit wine to celebrate, and the rest was to drink tea, and when he was full of food and drink, everyone talked about the same, listening to him talk about the scenery of the border, the vastness and vicissitudes of life over there, the cattle and sheep over there, the lakes and the small rivers, and he could hear that he really did not feel desolate over there, and these were all beautiful scenery in his eyes.

When the conversation was almost over, everyone dispersed, and Shen Hong looked at the second aunt: "Auntie, lend me the second pillar for a while, and we will sit for a while." ”

The second aunt nodded: "Cheng, knowing that you still have to talk about brothers for a while, I won't make peace." ”

The second aunt and Uncle Qiu were invited to walk out together, the second dog was still inside, Lin Piao pretended to go out, and after a while, he went around and mixed in again, and sat down in the previous position.

When Lin Piao came back, they had already spoken, and Erzhu was sighing: "That's exactly the truth. ”

He was not surprised to see Lin Piao come back again, after all, since they were children, they often secretly did bad things from his mother, mainly to keep his mother from worrying.

Erzhu continued: "Before, I only felt that the Qi family was very unthinking, and many things had to be experienced by myself to know, and I didn't know what to know, and I didn't know anything about it, and I only knew how good the Qi family was after following the people of the Xiang family, and the people under the Qi family were all strict in military discipline, and whatever they said was anything, disobeying the military order would never be tolerated for them. ”

Erzhu obviously has a hard time agreeing with this, and he agrees with being cunning, but being cunning to his enemies and being righteous to his companions is what it should be like to be in the same camp.

"There are no rules in the Xiang family, and the people under their command have told me to discover several times that they have bullied the people and robbed them of their things.

Lin Piao looked at him in shock: "Has it become a trend?" ”

"This trend is already very rampant, and I am very unaccustomed to it, anyway, as long as I am in the place, I can't see anyone doing this, so for our people in Daning, we are on the border to protect their peaceful lives, not to cause them calamity."

Erzhu was very angry when he talked about these things: "No matter how good Xiang Jia is to me, I can't get used to these things. ”

Ergou looked at him: "Don't think like this, you think how much kindness Xiang Jia is to you, they are not good people in the first place, and they make these gestures in order to win you over, they are all pretending." ”

Erzhu nodded, he is a person who loves and hates, he doesn't like Xiangjia just doesn't like it, naturally he doesn't think Xiangjia is good because they are better to him.

"It's just that I'm messing around with them now, and they've resorted to a lot of tricks against me, and I've realized that something is wrong, so I can only pretend to have received the favor first, otherwise the battle won't work, and something will always happen."

"What did they do?"

Erzhu sighed, other difficulties and hardships are all trivial matters, anyway, he has a big heart, he can fool what he can fool, as long as he can get by, just one thing he really can't do too much.

"At that time in the barracks, I had just been promoted to second lieutenant, and one of the lieutenants and I did not deal with it, and we often had conflicts, and once the general invited me to drink, and when I was drunk, he sent me back to my tent to sleep.

Lin Piao's brows were already twisted, Erzhu was not a narrow-minded and vicious person, he felt that he should kill the enemy, but he was quite merciful to Daning's people.

"I was not in my right mind, they intimidated me, the general said that I was not intentional, and forgave me, and then asked someone to dispose of the body of the lieutenant, and I pondered for half the night, until dawn, and I knew that they were not kind, but I was obedient and followed them, and if I was disobedient, I didn't know what to do to me, so I had to pretend to believe it, so that they thought I was convinced, and then I was willing to let me take someone to sneak to the Moon Department."

No matter what the truth of this matter is, no matter whether Erzhu is convinced or not, he can only make a convincing appearance, but if he dares to turn against the water, he will directly take his drunken murder as a handle and take him out of the army.

Xiangjia is so difficult, it is difficult for Erzhu to run.

They all looked at Shen Hong, and Shen Hong was the only one who could say a few words about this kind of matter, and they had no way to figure out how to break the situation except for scolding them.

Shen Hong also thought for a moment: "Now that it has come to this point, it is impossible for you to follow the Qi family army again, not to mention whether the Qi family is willing or not, the strict discipline of the Qi family is not suitable for you, Xiang Jia is not willing to let you go, you will plan and follow Xiang Jia, they are interested in using you, they are trying to control you, you only make a convincing appearance, but from time to time, they will naturally find ways to appease you." ”

Erzhu asked curiously, "What are you doing?" How does it work? ”

"You don't like to kill good people and do things that are not in your favor, but when you see that you just lose your temper and scold others, and do something that is not your liking, you can just do whatever you want, just remember to scold and not scold."

"What if they make me do something I don't want to do?"

"Then don't do it, they are looking forward to taking you to war, and you accompany them to do anything about chickens and dogs, but they will look down on you, and you will say that this is not something you will do, so that he will not come to you, but you can submit to it, or you can say, others can do it, you just don't know, so you can still ask for news of these things."

On control and counter-control.

Ergou clapped his hands when he heard this: "Suitable, this is too suitable for Erzhu, this kind of strong seed is such a person, others can't blame him for talking like this, and now Xiang Jia will definitely take Erzhu as a treasure." ”

Although the border battle has come to an end for the time being, the value of Erzhu has not disappeared, because the battle for the throne has not yet ended.

They gave Erzhu some pointers, and asked Erzhu to make preparations with both hands, first looking for an opportunity to meet with General Qi, explaining that he was forced and remorseful, so that when he had a chance to turn back in the future, he could run into the arms of the Qi family again, and the Qi family had relatively little mustard for Erzhu, and it could be more silky and seamless.

But it doesn't matter if you don't go to Qi's house in the future, anyway, prepare with both hands, and both sides have to be ready.

They finished coming up with the idea for Erzhu It was already late at night, and Erzhu pondered it, planning to start looking for an opportunity to implement it slowly in two days.

Everyone dispersed, Lin Piao listened to so many things, his brain was about to explode, and he collapsed on the chair: "It's not easy, it's not easy for everyone." ”

Fighting hard outside, where there is a mouthful of rice is eaten for nothing.

Shen Hong looked sideways at Lin Piao, and seeing that his eyelids couldn't be opened, he stretched out his hand and brought him over, and let Lin Piao lean on himself a little across the chair.

"Are you better?"

Lin Piao took advantage of the situation and lay on his shoulder: "No." ”

Shen Hong smiled, wrapped one hand behind him, and pressed the fingers of both hands on his forehead: "Give you relief." ”

"Well, it's not bad." Lin Piao expressed his appreciation.

Lin Piao adjusted his sitting posture according to his strength, leaned back slightly, and leaned on his chest: "Our family is really good now, all of them are characters, and those who are in business are not worrying, so they are tired, Erzhu and Ergou are really bothering, and if they don't do well, something will happen." ”

"It's going to be fine, now is the time to start, everything goes well, just don't make a mistake."

"Everything is easy in your mouth."

"Everything is like this, looking at the danger, but the way out is whether or not it can be discovered."

"Oh." Lin Piao leaned back slightly, deliberately hit him on the chin, and knocked lightly, but there was no sound.

Seeing this, Shen Hong reached out and hugged him, held him in his arms, and looked sideways at his side face: "I am also using the handkerchief you gave me." ”

"How long has it been, why don't you get a new one." After Lin Piao finished speaking, he also felt that he was too straight, so he looked sideways at him: "I'll give you a new one." ”

"Okay." Shen Hong lowered his eyes and watched Lin Piao lean on his arms like this and speak, at a glance it was his ear pinna, earlobe, and then a little tired side face, his eyelashes were half drooping, and he was only thinking about his own business, and only raised his eyes when he said that he was given a new handkerchief, and the two looked at each other.

Lin Piao reached into the placket of his clothes, took out his handkerchief and handed it to him: "Ready-made, here you are." ”

Lin Piao looked at Shen Hong, Shen Hong lowered his eyes slightly, and was looking at him, his expression was a little fascinated, this angle showed that the bridge of his nose was particularly high and straight, and his lips were the closest, just right full and thin lips, with neat lines, but not too thin.

Lin Piao's hand holding the handkerchief was raised slightly, and he couldn't help but press it lightly on his lips, and his fingertips were separated by a thin layer of silk handkerchief.

It's so soft.

There was a hint of surprise in Shen Hong's eyes.

Lin Piao felt that he couldn't change the problem of cheap hands, he couldn't help but want to get started when he looked good, but now that he knew Shen Hong's thoughts, he restrained and restrained, and as a result, he started again.

Shen Hong leaned closer, rested his chin on his neck, and called in a muffled voice: "Piao'er." ”

Lin Piao raised his hand and touched his hair: "Good." ”

Shen Hong pressed against the side of his face, his cheek gently rubbed against his earlobe, and he closed his eyes to feel the faint aroma of his body and neck socket.

He could think of the fastest way to marry Lin Piao, so he begged for a favor from the dragon's work, and they were all lonely and widowed, and they were given marriage by the saints, so naturally no one dared to talk about it, and no one would spurn it in future generations.

There was already an earth dragon in the house, and it was warmer to lean together, and Lin Piao fell into his arms, and suddenly remembered another thing.

"Are you busy or not?"

"It's not busy, I have time to spare, but I have some relationships that need to be sorted out."

"If you asked me to go out to enjoy the snow before, because there are many things at home, and you all come back, I will refuse, and it happens that everyone in the family is here, so we have to have a snow feast, and you can build a snowman with me tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll be back tomorrow in the afternoon, and I can build a snowman with you in the afternoon."

"Why do you always rush and rush to raise a little meat, you will be tired and thin."

"It's a little white in winter, but it's okay to look at it."

Lin Piao didn't expect Shen Hong to care about this kind of question: "Quite good, you are tanned and handsome, you are the first black beauty in Beijing." ”

Men are those who please themselves.

Even if Shen Hong was tanned, it was only wheat-colored, and now he slowly returned in white in winter, and when he came back, he simply wore a robe and a cotton shirt, but now in Shangjing, he is very particular about it, and he is dressed in a robe and a large-sleeved shirt, a belt of gold and jade, and an embroidered hem.

Shen Hong knew that Lin Piao liked good-looking things, when he was a child, Lin Piao saw that he was good-looking, so he was willing to touch his face more, but now he rarely does this to him anymore, so Lin Piao couldn't help but touch his lips, and he knew that Lin Piao thought he was good-looking again.

He held Lin Piao's hand, pulled it to his lips and kissed his knuckles gently, then held his hand, pressed it against his cheek, and quietly hugged Lin Piao.

After staying for a while, Lin Piao got up lazily from his arms, feeling that if he continued like this, it would be endless: "It's almost time, I have to go back to rest, you should go back to rest early." ”

Qing Yu and Qiu Yu were still waiting outside, and they were cooking in another room, when they saw a noise outside, they came out to see, and when they saw that it was Lin Piao who had come out, they turned around and carried the lantern and led Lin Piao outside.

Qiu Yu wondered in her heart, everyone else was gone, why did Madame and the adults stay in the house for so long, but they were usually very talkative, and sometimes they had to talk for a long time when they stayed together, not to mention that Madame had a lot of things in her hands, and there were already endless things to say and do.

On the other side, Shen Hong stayed in the house for a while, holding the handkerchief that Lin Piaoxin gave him, holding it in his hand and looking at it for a while, putting it in his clothes, getting up and walking out.

Qing Yu was waiting outside, and when he saw Shen Hong coming out, he walked out with a lantern, because there were many people and vegetables today, they were gathered in the living room, and they had to walk a little way back to their own yard.

Qing Yu walked in front and said after a long time: "My lord and my wife are really good, and there are always endless things to say together." ”

Shen Hong didn't reply, Qing Yu glanced back, and saw that Shen Hong's expression had not changed, but only glanced at her lightly.

Her heart trembled: "My lord, slave and maid ......" Her words were already crying.
