Chapter 108: Complaints in the letter
When Xiao Lu changed the topic, he looked at Shen Yanshu who was sitting next to him and drinking tea quietly, but his delicate and small face was rare and comfortable without indifference, the breeze was blowing, and he gently lifted the green silk in her ears, and he couldn't take his eyes off it.
He suddenly wondered, how did such a woman come to be?
It can not only play chess with it, recite poems, but also learn martial arts and talk about strategy. Calm and decisive in the face of things, such a woman is really rare, but he just let him meet it.
But she is not her best home.
As Shen Yanshu said, he is a dying man, and he can only live for two years at most, although he has been working hard to find an antidote, but he has never wanted to live like this, and he wants to be with her all the time.
Shen Yanshu felt that Yan Qinghan's gaze had been staying on her, she looked up at him and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”
Yan Qinghan lowered his head and smiled bitterly, picked up the teacup in his hand, and tasted it, the tea brewed from this fine tea was so bitter.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Shen Yanshu no longer asked, but said: "I don't know if this Qiao Chunwen is so safe all the way back, will it make him anxious and think of some stupid ways to jump off the wall in a hurry." ”
Xiao Lu said: "We sent someone to follow, nothing went wrong." ”
Shen Yanshu nodded, now that Xiyan and Ah Qi are not by his side, he doesn't even have anyone to inquire about the news, so he can only wait for Xiao Lu or Yan Qinghan to bring them news.
Nie Dong and Nie Liang had already returned to Chang'an a few days ago, and Shen Yanshu asked them to go back first and find a stable place in Chang'an, so that they could collect information in the future, improve intelligence and do some things for him.
After Shen Yanshu and Xiao Lu left the courtyard, Mo Bai came in with a letter.
"Lord, Dingxi is waiting for a letter from the prince. ”
Yan Qinghan took the envelope from his hand, opened the thick letter, and saw Chu Linche's familiar handwriting, but it warmed his heart.
Chu Linche said in the letter that Bian Yu, the apprentice of the Medicine King, had arrived in Chang'an and was now living in Dingxi Houfu, but that Bian Yu had a strange personality and didn't like to deal with others, so it was really difficult to serve.
The second thing is that the envoy of Daqi has decided to visit Da Zhou, about next month will arrive in Chang'an, this visit has the three princes of Daqi and the envoy An Ruyi, An Ruyi is the son of the national teacher of Daqi, it is rumored that he is talented and talented, and has the wisdom of Anbang and the country, which is quite favored by the emperor of Daqi.
In addition to these two things, Chu Linche complained endlessly in the letter, he was tortured by Xue Ziqing's living Yama King in the Shenji Camp and couldn't vent, and he finally knew that the living Yama King rumored by the outside world was really not easy to provoke.
"I, a dignified son of Chu, was actually punished by the Living Hades King to stand at the city gate, and lost all my Yushu Linfeng's handsome, handsome, handsome, and unparalleled appearance, and my dignified and unparalleled face!
"Yan Qinghan, how can I say that we are also a small friendship, how could you bear to send me to the clutches of the living Hades in the first place, if you don't come back to save me, my life will be suspended......"
The first two things only took one page, but he wrote ten pages when he said that he was miserable, and this thick letter was complaining about how Xue Ziqing trained him in the days when he was sent to the Shenji Battalion, through this stack of papers, Yan Qinghan could almost imagine Chu Linche's sad look of being bullied when he wrote this letter.
After reading the letter carefully for more than a dozen pages, Yan Qinghan folded the letter, put it aside, and then picked up the pen to reply to Chu Linche.
But his reply was only a thin page, with the date of return.
Two days later, Xiao Lu's people replied with a message, saying that Qiao Chunwen took the inferior goods he purchased from Jiangnan to the west, but he never met the Zhenbei army, until he crossed the border of Jiangnan, and the soldiers who had been hiding on the official ship stopped doing it.
They had been prepared early to suppress the bandits, and they didn't even get off the boat in the days they had been in Jiangzhou, for fear that someone would find their traces and startle the snakes.
The soldiers on the ship were angry, Qiao Chunwen's life was not easy, his wishful thinking went wrong, but he was wrong!
Qiao Chunwen was so anxious that he really came up with an idea, ordered someone to throw the purchased goods into the river, and then instructed his subordinates to say that the ship had been attacked by bandits.
This is to fabricate his original illusion out of thin air, but unfortunately he didn't expect that when they were throwing the goods, they encountered the Xiao family's merchant ship, and this scene was seen.
This Qiao Chunwen wanted to kill people and kill people, but when he thought that the current Xiao family was covered by King Ling, he hesitated.
At this moment of hesitation, I saw that there were a lot of guards on the ship of the Xiao family, this Xiao family has a large industry, and every time the goods are transported, they must be prepared, naturally not ordinary people can intercept it, if Qiao Chunwen fights hard with him, even if he wins, he may not be able to slow things over.
Xiao Lu followed what Shen Yanshu said before, and let them spread the words after they arrived in Chang'an.
The reputation of the Qiao family is estimated to stink.
The previous Qi family and the current Qiao family were all defeated in the hands of Shen Yanshu, if you just look at the appearance, who would have thought that this woman would have such a means under the delicate appearance.
"Why do you always look at me?" Shen Yanshu felt Yan Qinghan's gaze staring at him all the time, and he always felt a little weird.
Yan Qinghan said: "I will leave Jiangzhou the day after tomorrow, how long do you plan to stay?"
"The day after tomorrow?" Shen Yanshu said, "Why the day after tomorrow?"
Yan Qinghan said: "Because tomorrow will be fifteen." ”
Only then did Shen Yanshu remember that Yan Qinghan's original intention of coming to Jiangzhou was to spend the fifteenth day of each month.
"Then you go back first, I have to wait for Xiyan to come back. Shen Yanshu said.
Yan Qinghan was curious: "This time to send a message back and forth, it doesn't take much time, where did you let them go with the Zhenbei Army?"
Shen Yanshu naturally wouldn't tell him, she chuckled lightly and said, "If you tell me truthfully how much military power you have in your hands now, I will tell you where they went." ”
Yan Qinghan and everyone thought that King Ling was not in good health now, and he had no heirs, so he naturally had no real power in his hands.
But Shen Yanshu didn't believe that Yan Qinghan would hand over the military power in his hand, and now there was no war in the surrounding countries, even if he didn't hand over the military power in his hand, the emperor couldn't ask for it in other names, father and son, and he couldn't say that he would hand over everything in his hand soon.
Maybe he will be asked to hand over his military power on the grounds of reducing his burden and allowing him to recover well, but with Yan Qinghan's temperament, how can he compromise so easily?
Yan Qinghan looked at her and didn't answer, there are still too many barriers between them, and many things can't be fully trusted now, but he is not in a hurry, and he can't be in a hurry.
He said, "It's still early today, it's a nice day, why don't we go for a walk on the street together?"
Shen Yanshu was bored in the mansion, anyway, Yan Qinghan would go back to Chang'an the day after tomorrow, and it would be okay to walk with him.
There are a lot of lively places in this Jiangzhou city, Shen Yanshu and Xiao Yan have walked a lot before, but they prefer quieter streets, watching those vendors on the side of the street shout from time to time, and chat together when they have nothing to do.
Walking side by side on the street with Shen Yanshu, Yan Qinghan suddenly felt a faint pleasure, like an ordinary husband and wife, shopping and seeing new and interesting things, this kind of ordinary life is very good.
"Don't worry, I'll put my marriage back two years, and if I'm gone, you can still marry someone else. ”
I don't know what's going on, Yan Qinghan said this.
Shen Yanshu looked up at his face, there seemed to be a faint sadness in her eyes, she couldn't understand his mood, the feeling of knowing that her life was short, although she had died once, but compared to Yan Qinghan's slow suffering, the feeling of watching her life pass by little by little may be even more difficult.
She wanted to say that even if he wasn't there, she didn't want to marry anyone else.
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them again. If you say this, maybe he will misunderstand, right?
"Thank you. It took a long time for this sentence to pop out of her mouth.
Yan Qinghan's eyes flashed slightly, does her thank you prove that she wants to marry someone else?
It's just that he was about to say something more, when he heard a voice not far away.
"Shen Yanshu, let me touch you!"
The two of them looked in the direction of the voice, and looked up to see Pei Yining, who was drinking on the second floor of the restaurant, her face was slightly red, her eyes seemed to be confused, and she seemed to have drunk a lot of wine.
"Let's go. Shen Yanshu didn't want to entangle with Pei Yining, so he grabbed Yan Qinghan's wrist and was about to move forward.
When Pei Yining saw that they were leaving, she was in a hurry, and she actually climbed up the window and was about to jump in the direction where Shen Yanshu and the others were.
"Ahh
Shen Yanshu frowned, so he had to tiptoe lightly, jumped up, and walked in the direction of Pei Yining, picked up Pei Yining, who fell from the window, and then landed on the ground safely.
Pei Yining was taken aback, and her legs were a little weak.
Shen Yanshu originally wanted to let go of her hand and let her stand by herself, but I don't know if she was scared or drank too much, she didn't stand firm and was about to fall to the ground, Shen Yanshu had no choice but to help her up again.
"Drink so much wine. Shen Yanshu smelled the strong smell of wine on her body, and couldn't help but change her face, and said sharply, "If you drink again, I will throw you into the wine cellar to reflect!"
