When Shen Qiyu arrived in Lidu, it was already the twenty-second day of the lunar month, but he would pinch the day and catch up with the New Year. Seeing the familiar imperial city from far to near, it is busy. I was used to living a hard life in the army, and when I saw such a lively street, I felt a little emotional for a while.

The Chinese New Year is a big event, and many people have begun to prepare for the purchase of New Year's goods and prepare for a good year. The threshold of the cloth village is about to be stepped on, and the parents rush to see if they can pick up a bargain and buy some good cloth to make new clothes for the children at home.

Shen Qiyu remembered that when he was a child, he didn't have many clothes to wear, but every Chinese New Year, his mother would add him a new dress and wear a new one on the first day of the new year. Later, when I came to the palace, from time to time someone would send clothes over, and it seemed that the one from the previous year was not so special.

There were a lot of people on the street, and it took a long time to get to the palace gate.

Shen Qiyu thought, go home. Then I thought it was funny that I would one day make the palace my home. But that's exactly what happened. People often think that the deep palace is ruthless, but for him, there are his relatives inside.

Princess Nan's belly was bulging, and King Nan said to Shen Qiyu: "Count the days, it is possible that she is in the same month as you." Then he asked, "When will you wait?"

"It's over Shangyuan. ”

"The border war is not tight, what are you anxious about. ”

"Then Brother Wang thinks what time is better. ”

"When your sister-in-law gives birth, the little uncle has to be present. ”

Shen Qiyu smiled, this smile made Nanwang feel that something was missing, he thought, it was probably childish. In the past six months, a child has become an adult.

After a long time of separation, this year has been more enjoyable.

Princess Yuyun likes to pester him to talk about some new things outside, but Shen Qiyu stays in the barracks, which can be regarded as half isolated. So he talked about things on the battlefield, sometimes admiring the courage of the soldiers, sometimes regretting the loss of heroes, and sometimes fearing the bloodshed of the battlefield, but the princess was full of emotion. Shen Qiyu was afraid that the princess would want to be a heroine, so she always emphasized: "The battlefield is a place to die, and the border is really not a good place to go." ”

The princess asked, "Why did the brother choose the battlefield?" ”

"The man's ambition is to open up territory for the country, defend the peace, and live for generations. Shen Qiyu replied. Since he is already a royal person, he should naturally have the spirit and mind of a royal.

King Nan said: "The battle will definitely be fought, and they will be beaten back to their hometowns and give up their former territory." ”

It's just that his ambition has to wait for enough food.

On February 27 of the twentieth year of Liping, Princess Nan gave birth to a son.

"Lin'er, have you thought of a name?" Concubine Yan was already smiling from ear to ear.

"Mother, I have thought about it a long time ago. I'm going to call him Yan Qing, Li Yanqing. I wish my Li Guohai and Yan River clear. ”

"Where's the nickname?"

"The nickname is also Concubine Lao. ”

"Ah Cheng, it's called Ah Cheng. ”

"Ah Cheng," Shen Qiyu read again, "but it is somewhat in harmony with the name given by Brother Wang." He teased the little man with closed eyes in the nurse's arms, and he was adorable and cute.

"Almost the same month as his little uncle. ”

Everyone in the room laughed.

Time in the imperial city is much easier than in the borderlands, and time passes in a blink of an eye. When Shen Qiyu first came back, everyone wrapped himself in airtightness, but now he can't wait for the clothes on his body to be only light shirts and tulle.

This year's heat wave arrived relatively early, and those who were early were a little panicked. The drought of the previous years had driven people crazy, and they really didn't dare to come back again.

So in March, I invited the statue of the dragon king and set up an altar for three days, so as to ask for a smooth wind and rain this year.

Shen Qiyu rushed to the Shangzhou military camp in early April. The truce period of the Chinese New Year has long passed, and the two sides are once again caught in a cycle of fighting and defending. When he first arrived, he thought about when to start attacking actively, but now he has infinite concerns because he is alone.

He thought how good it would be if he wasn't the general of the enemy army. But if he weren't for the enemy's generals, they wouldn't know each other. Shen Qiyu looked down on himself a little, he had read all the sage books he used to read in the dog's stomach, and he actually put himself in his current situation because of a good skin, and the other party was still a man.

On the day when Shen Qiyu first arrived at the barracks, after meeting with General Zhao, he arranged it at random, and actually rode his horse to the enemy camp.

He bluntly said that he was crazy, but he still indulged himself in madness.

Shen Zeyun can infiltrate the Li State military camp, and he Shen Qiyu is also confident that he can enter the Jiang State military camp. But he found that the patrol of the Jiang State military camp was much stricter than that of the Li State. It's just that Jiang Guo is weak in a small country and has few people, so even such a small country and widows can harass Li Guo and worry about it.

Shen Qiyu secretly made up his mind in his heart to put the border troops of Li State in order.

He was dressed in black, blending in with the night, and touched the commander's tent all the way. This was the second time he had come to the Jiangguo military camp, but he came uninvited.

The tent was brightly lit, and it was surprisingly quiet. He followed the shadow reflected in the tent, and the sword was unsheathed an inch, and although the voice was not loud, it was crisp. But the shadow didn't move at all.

He simply pulled out his sword and stabbed it directly, immediately stabbing a hole. He glanced in very quickly, and there was no one but a man sitting in a chair.

The lights in the tent were very bright, but the man propped his head on the desk with his hands, as if he was napping. Shen Qiyu had no choice but to enlarge the hole a little more, he was cautious, but the movements of his hands were not slow, the sound was not loud, and the delay was not long.

Shen Qiyu also took a fanta: "Why is this so like cheating." ”

He got inside, and just as he could speak, the napping man had kicked over the chair under his seat, and a flaming sword stabbed at him, but stopped in his chest.

"Why are you here?" was clearly sober and contained a stunned question.

Shen Qiyu was overwhelmed by his sword question: "Looking for you." But half of the enthusiasm that rushed to him was gone.

The originally serious person smiled, and it was familiar again: "You are so bold." There are so many people patrolling in front of my tent, and you dare to come?"

Shen Qiyu only said: "You are a thief. ”

"It's not a thief, but he's still a real person, and he's used to talking about things," he pointed to the half-human-high opening cut with his sword, "First of all, how should I pay for this?"

With that, he snatched the sword from his hand, blew out the two lamps, and pulled him into the shadows. He walked alone to the tent and shouted, "Someone." ”

A person walked in, Shen Qiyu felt that he was a little familiar, probably the last time he saw it.

He said: "General Ben was a little bored tonight, and he danced his sword in the tent, but I didn't expect this camp tent to be so unruly, no, it made such a big cut. I thought that it was hot and humid at night, and it would be good to have a breeze, so I wouldn't bother my brothers to come and see it. But I thought again, if the brothers on patrol saw it at night, they probably had to worry about whether something had happened. So let's just say leave him alone. Brother Chen, give me an explanation. ”

"Yes, General. His promise can be described as gritting his teeth.

Shen Qiyu suddenly remembered, but the last time this person saw him, he was still a general, and he suddenly became a small guard guarding the door.

"By the way, don't guard the door tonight, you all have to rest. ”

"Thank you, General. ”

After the man left, Shen Qiyu said, "What's the matter?"

"What?"

"This person surnamed Chen, wasn't he a general?"

"How do you know? Oh - yes, it's not the first time you've been here. There was a hint of ridicule in his words, "Praying for rain is really unforgettable." He added: "But like what he did at the time, it's really hard to forget." This is my own military business, just like a family matter, what does it have to do with outsiders. ”

Shen Qiyu said "um", and his heart, which was still restless because of a title, was thrown down hard, and he didn't know what to say.

The man walked over slowly and said, "But since you are my sweetheart, it doesn't hurt to listen to you." He walked up to Shen Qiyu and stared at his face, wanting to see some shyness on his face.

But Shen Qiyu took two steps back and hid himself in the shadows, which was not as good as he wanted. "Speak well. ”

"Okay, okay. That man was my father's man. When the emperor asked me to come to the border, this was almost the meaning of exile. But my father was still not at ease, and he had to find someone to keep an eye on me wherever he was. In the past, I was only here to mingle and not to worry about him. But now it's different," he looked away from Shen Qiyu's direction, "I have to mix a little better to be worthy of you." Then I'll have to deal with him first. ”

"But he's in front of your tent?"

"I can't use him, so I'll destroy him first. It's just a-for-tat, humiliating him first and then killing him. ”

He added, "Then you have to be careful." ”

Shen Zeyun didn't want to say this anymore. He asked, "When did you arrive in Shangzhou?"

"This morning. ”

"Coming to me right away?"

Shen Qiyu was speechless, which meant yes.

Shen Zeyun grabbed his arm, pulled him into the light, and said very sincerely: "Thank you." And he said, "I won't be going back tonight, okay?"

"Good. ”

There seemed to be a raging fire in his eyes, as if he was about to burn Shen Qiyu. Shen Zeyun directly hugged the well-behaved person in front of him, and he was not sinking, his eyes were cautiously tentative, and he was afraid of being rejected, but his mouth was full of shapes: "Brother Qiyu is still young, and he hasn't learned many things yet, I'll teach you some tonight, okay." ”

Shen Qiyu was greatly insulted, and his hand hanging on the outside suddenly became difficult, and he pinched Shen Zeyun's neck: "Let me go." ”

But the man didn't seem to feel it anymore, and didn't care about the pain in his neck at all, and walked steadily towards the bed. He gently lowered the man and looked at him pleadingly.

In the end, he couldn't bear to hurt him, Shen Qiyu's hand let go, but the whole person was still vicious: "Don't move me." ”

Shen Zeyun looked innocent: "Where do I want to move you." I just want to teach you some battlefield skills, so that you don't have to suffer later due to lack of experience. Where do you think of it. ”

Whether it's fighting a war or being cheeky, it's not his opponent.

He lay down next to Shen Qiyu, feeling very good, but he was afraid that the other party would be uncomfortable, so he said in a dumb voice: "If you are uncomfortable, move in." ”

The people around him didn't move: "Say something quickly." ”

Shen Zeyun scolded him in his heart, but he still said seriously: "Marching and fighting is not like a martial arts competition, it is very chaotic, you have enough strength, and you are almost a little unpredictable." On the battlefield, you don't have to follow any moves, slash indiscriminately, and often take it by surprise. Of course, react faster. Secondly, don't just see the enemy in front of you, you have to take care of it in all directions. In fact, there are many of them, and more experience will be. ”

"It's just that this kind of experience is too costly. Shen Qiyu turned over and turned his back to him, but he had already relaxed, "I'm sleepy." ”

Shen Zeyun thought about it, this person has been running around for days, and he came here without a break, so it's strange that he is not tired, and he blames himself for leaving everything behind when he saw him and didn't notice it. He said, "You can squint for a moment." ”

No one has replied to him. He also turned sideways, just at the back of his head. He poked his exposed neck, and when he didn't react, he reached out and gently wrapped a hand around him.

At the end of the day, he is selfish and cowardly.
