Everything in the city of Liangzhou is as before.

The military secretary's mansion had opened its door early in the morning, and Shengyu was waiting in front of the door.

There was already a guard who came to report the news of his wife's return today, but it was not until noon that he saw the carriage escorted by soldiers and horses coming all the way.

The car stopped in front of the door, and Shunyin lifted the curtain and came out.

This way took the official road, and it took three days to arrive. She didn't know how Mu Changzhou's net was collected, if it went well, maybe he could take the shortcut like he did when he went, and he could rush back at about the same time as her.

Sheng Yu stepped forward quickly, stood on the right side, looked at her face, and said with a glance: "Madame is hard, yesterday the Governor's Mansion ordered that a banquet will be held tonight to wash the dust for the military secretary and his wife, I don't want my wife to return a day late, and the military secretary has not returned, but I want to ask the Governor's Mansion for instructions and resignation?" ”

Shun Yin thought about it, there must have been a quick horse soldier rushing back to report the progress of the matter in Ganzhou, so that the governor's office thought that they would be able to return yesterday, so it seems that Mu Changzhou should be quite smooth there.

After all, it was the good intentions of the governor's mansion, how could she push it away casually, she said as she entered the door of the mansion: "Or I will personally enter the governor's mansion to make it clear, so as not to fall into disrespect." ”

Sheng Yu said yes, seeing that her clothes were already stained with dust, she hurriedly went to the backyard to arrange for hot water to be cleaned.

The first thing Shunyin did when she returned to the room was to put away the dagger, then used some tea and rice, and bathed to rest, waiting for Shengyu to dress and change her clothes, and the sun was already slanting.

She fastened the belt of her skirt and walked to the door of the house to take a look, but she didn't see any movement in the house, maybe Mu Changzhou couldn't come back today, nodded to Shengyu, and walked out of the door.

Go out of the gate and board the bus, and go straight north to the governor's mansion.

By the time we reached the majestic main gate, the sun was gone, and the curfew had arrived.

As soon as Shunyin got out of the car, an attendant came to greet her, and seeing that she was alone, she bowed down and asked, "Please go and see Mrs. Steward." ”

That's right, Shunyin is planning to do this, and it's just a matter of suing the lady in charge.

With the attendant leading the way, she went to the flower hall in the house, and it took a lot of time, this governor's mansion was even more luxurious than she thought, and the size was no less than a palace in Chang'an.

Entering the hall, I saw the chief manager's wife Liu sitting alone, just like the first time they met, today they also wore a bearded robe, embroidered with red gold auspicious cloud patterns, very luxurious, and beckoned when they saw her enter the door: "Speak closely." ”

Shun Yin stepped forward to salute, and was about to explain that Mu Changzhou had not come back yet, but she was interrupted first.

"I heard that this time the military secretary went to Ganzhou to check military affairs and also brought you?"

Shun Yin looked at her with a smile on her face and lowered her head and replied: "Yes." ”

Liu's eyebrows smiled with fine lines: "It seems that I also want you to see the customs of Ganzhou, which shows that you have a good relationship." ”

Shun Yinxin said that it was okay to think like this, so she should go to see the scenery.

Liu suddenly leaned closer, and his voice was much lower: "You should grasp it well, and if you have something, you can tell me at any time." ”

Shun Yin raised her head slightly: "Please let the lady of the manager make it clear." ”

Liu smiled again: "I said that you women from the family are noble, if you don't grasp it well, let the military secretary be tied to you physically and mentally, and it will be easy for him to turn around and marry another newcomer in the future." If he marries someone else who is powerful, what status do you have? ”

Shunyin's heart moved, and he understood a lot in an instant, but he pretended to know a little bit on his face, and only lowered his head and said nothing.

Liu waved his hand and sat upright: "You go back and think about it, and you will understand." The military commander's office already knows, so let's go first. ”

The attendant who had led the way came in again and asked her to go out.

Shun Yin followed out, still reminiscing about Liu's words in her heart.

It turned out that this was the reason why the Governor's Mansion chose her for Mu Changzhou, because the Feng family was defeated and had no power or power.

Liu Shi wanted her to tie Mu Changzhou so much, just because he didn't want him to get support from other external forces. Although the governor of Liangzhou relied on him, he didn't want him to sit big, so he wanted to use him and guard against him.

No wonder Mu Changzhou wants power, he must not be satisfied with this......

The attendant in front had stopped: "Madame, please wait." ”

Shunyin came back to his senses, he was already on the porch in the front yard, and he could go out of the house before he went, but he stopped here. Before she asked, the attendant had already retreated into a small hall, and she didn't know what she was doing, so she simply left the house by herself.

Probably to set up a banquet, the house was specially sprinkled and swept over, she just stepped down the front steps of the porch, the step was slippery, her body leaned slightly, a hand reached out, and supported her arm beside her.

Shunyin turned his head, and Mu Changzhou was standing on the right side, as long as a pine, his robe was lightly tied, as if he had just been bathed and washed, and there was still a trace of moisture on his body.

She was surprised, "You're back?" ”

Mu Changzhou looked at her: "When you came back, you just went out, and I rushed here, and I was waiting for you." ”

Shun Yin glanced behind him, the attendant had just left, and it turned out that he had entered the small hall to call him.

She looked around and asked softly, "Solved?" ”

Mu Changzhou bowed his head and walked forward with her arm: "Although he resisted stubbornly, he didn't make any waves. ”

The soldiers and horses brought by Hu Xiao'er were divided into two roads, one way surrounded the exit of the four city gates of the small city where An Qingui was located, and the other road blocked the exit in the mountain.

Before the sky was clear, Zhang Junfeng led people into the mountains to announce the order, saying that An Qingui had a bad plot and had been discovered by the governor, and if he was obsessed and followed him to resist, there was only a dead end.

The road in the mountains is not easy to walk, it is indeed easy to hide, but it is also not conducive to escape, the Tibetan soldiers in the mountains have no reason to defend, and there is no excess grain and grass to resist, and they all surrendered in a day.

An Qingui learned that the matter was exposed, and tried to break out of the siege several times in the city without success.

Mu Changzhou personally waited outside the city, thinking that it would take some effort, but he didn't want none of the generals around him to be loyal to help him, and the hidden soldiers in the city naturally didn't want to sell their lives, so in the end he could only surrender.

As he spoke, he was almost at the gate, and the previous attendant turned back and said, "The military secretary stays, and the wife of the chief manager has come to speak in person when she learns that the military secretary has come to pick up the lady." ”

Shunyin remembered that his arm was still being held by him, and quietly pulled it back.

Mu Changzhou glanced at her, withdrew his hand, and turned around to wait.

Liu Shi came quickly, and there was still a distance to say: "The military secretary returned with meritorious service today, and solved a big problem for the general manager, but unfortunately I thought you couldn't come back, and the banquet was canceled." When all the governors come to Liangzhou next month, there will be a banquet, and the military secretary will be the chief. ”

Mu Changzhou raised his hand.

Liu Shi has stopped: "Don't be formal, I'll come to pass the word for the manager, he has been waiting for the military secretary today, but before he arrived, he had a head illness again, so he had to go to rest first." ”

Shun Yin glanced at Liu twice, and had already seen that this lady of the chief steward was high and was not an easy person to get close to, but she was courteous to Mu Changzhou, presumably because of the courtesy of the chief steward to Mu Changzhou.

It seems that it is true that he chose himself who has no power and no power for him, but it is also true that he relies on courtesy.

Mu Changzhou said: "The manager must have other things to explain. ”

Liu said: "Exactly, otherwise how can I need to come in person." Chang'an is here, and he is still a border patrol envoy, but this year is different from the past......" She glanced at Shunyin, and continued, "The general manager trusts the military department, so naturally he will be given full authority to receive the military department." ”

Mu Changzhou nodded: "Yes." ”

Shunyin was stunned for a moment, is Chang'an coming? immediately reacted, listening to what Liu said, there must be a border patrol every year, but it may be just for show. This year is different, most of the time it means that she married into Liangzhou, and the relationship is naturally different from previous years.

After the words were finished, it was time to leave, but Liu Shi stopped again, looked back and forth on Shunyin, and suddenly smiled at her: "Liangzhou is now prevalent Hu Feng, I think you have not fully integrated, in this case, why not take a Hu name?" ”

Shunyin is a little inexplicable, Chang'an is also prevalent Hu Feng, although not as good as Liangzhou, but it has always been based on personal preference, the country is inclusive of all rivers, and does not exclude foreign winds, but there has never been a saying that you have to take a Hu name to integrate into the foreign atmosphere. It's like deliberately chasing Hu Feng.

She opened her lips, not knowing what to answer for a moment.

"It's already taken." Mu Changzhou took over.

Liu immediately asked, "Oh? What was taken? ”

Shun Yin couldn't help but look over.

Mu Changzhou turned his head and smiled at her gaze: "It's a shame to say that the joy of the boudoir is called, and I can't say it." ”

Liu Shi looked at them, covered his mouth and smiled: "I see, I asked more." After that, he didn't ask anymore and left immediately.

Shunyin's eyes moved, his face was already unconsciously hot, he glanced at him, turned around and walked out.

It wasn't until outside the gate, far away from the gate of the house, that she was about to board the car, that she turned her head to look to her side.

Mu Changzhou walked long and wide, and soon walked to her right.

"Second Brother Mu, how can you talk nonsense?" She asked lightly.

Mu Changzhou looked over: "Then how to say it, I can't make up a name for you." ”

Shunyin had nothing to say, so she could only pick up her clothes and board the car.

Just about to sit in the car, I heard him say again with a smile: "Whether it is nonsense or not, I don't know." ”

She was stunned for a moment, and turned her head to see that he had already turned on his horse and led the way, as if he were not the one who had just spoken.

CHAPTER XXVII

It seems that only in the short days after leaving, the short spring in Liangzhou has receded, and it has quietly entered the summer, but the heat is not obvious, and the air is cool in the morning.

A blue and white light entered the window, dragged it to the table, and shone directly on a letter at the top of the table.

Sheng Yu was waiting in the East House as usual, and was just about to leave after being busy, when he saw the letter, he bent his knees and asked in a loud voice, "Madame is going to send a letter today?" ”

Shunyin sat on the edge of the couch, just finished the morning food, nodded and said, "It's okay, I'll send it myself." ”

Shengyu understood, presumably the relationship between Mrs. and the military secretary has been strong for a long time, and she has her own military secretary to deal with it, and she bowed her head and retreated.

It was still early outside, Shunyin wiped her lips, got up and went to the table to get the letter, put it in her sleeve, and went out to the main house.

The letter was written last night, and naturally it was sent to Qinzhou to seal the disease, and now it won't take much trouble. Originally, because of the fact that he had rushed to write a letter before, he had to say a few words to him, but the matter had come to this point, so he still forgot it, and finally only said some ordinary words in the letter, so as not to worry him.

The door of the house was open, and Mu Changzhou should have also risen.

Shunyin walked to the door, looked into the room, and saw Mu Changzhou sitting on the wooden couch on the east side, wearing a robe, supporting his knees with one hand, holding an official document with the other, hanging his head and closing his eyes, and he didn't know whether he was looking or closing his eyes to recuperate.

As soon as I saw him, I remembered the nonsense he had made in the governor's mansion last night. Her eyes flickered, and then she remembered that he was no longer the gentleman he was at the beginning, so she shouldn't expect him to speak the words of a gentleman, she should have gotten used to it.

When he went back to the house and walked into the backyard last night, he still had a smile on his face, but when she looked over, he restrained himself, and didn't say anything more out of line.

Shunyin recalled waiting by the door, and went to see him again, but didn't see him move, and didn't know whether to disturb for a while, after thinking about it, she still stepped into the door with her clothes on her clothes.

Knowing that he has excellent ears, he should hear movement immediately. She walked over, but before she could speak, she saw him Huo Ran raised his head, grabbed her arm, and his eyes were as cold as a knife.

Shun Yin was stunned and subconsciously took half a step back, but then saw that his eyes slowed down, as if he was awake instantly.

"It's good that it's Yin Niang, not someone else." His voice was slightly hoarse, as if he had just woken up from a nap.

Shun Yin sighed slowly: "Second Brother Mu is so precautionary even when he is asleep?" ”

Mu Changzhou smiled, didn't answer, and looked down at her arm.

Fang just buckled her too fast, Shun Yin was only at this time calm, following his gaze to see, his five fingers were slender, firmly buckled on her arm, loosened, but did not let go, but held it and rubbed it twice on her arm.

She couldn't help but glance at him, always feeling like a reassurance.

"Commander, the horse is ready." Chang Feng's voice suddenly came in.

Shun Yin immediately withdrew her arm and turned her head to look at the door, probably because she was there, Chang Feng deliberately stood a few steps away from the door, and raised his voice.

Mu Changzhou glanced at her, withdrew his hand, put down the official document in his other hand, and looked at the door: "Why now?" ”
