In fact, the nurse who harmed people was actually chosen by the former wife of the assassin Shi, and although it was not the son of the Shu family, it was the Li family, and he himself couldn't detect the inappropriateness before this happened, so he really couldn't complain about the innocent Li Fang.

Seeing his wife's silent tears, Shu Tingshi didn't know how to comfort him, so he had to change the topic bluntly: "Hey, it's noon, Ah Bing should be hungry, right?" Let's go and eat. ”

"What the husband said is reasonable, I should make up for it if I have lost so much weight, if you don't want to speak, don't say it, it's okay and don't worry," with Shu Tingshi's words, Li Shi also went down the steps, gently stroked Shu Bing's forehead and said softly, "Freshen up first, it's really sad to see how you look so cold." ”

The housewife waved her hand, and then a maidservant girl changed Shu Bing into a gorgeous skirt embroidered with pomegranate red embroidered with colorful butterflies, with a goose yellow short undergarment, combed two small tugs on the left and right on her head, and tied a long yellow and red ribbon, which was both festive and rich.

After the meal, Shu Tingshi asked the maid to lead Shu Bing to take a nap, saying that she would set off the next day after resting, and Ah Yi didn't let her sister leave her sight, and the two wore plain white half-arm sweatshirts, and took a nap on the bamboo couch in the same room.

When he got up in the afternoon to see his grandmother, Shu Bing found that they were dressed even more grandly. Li Shi wore a long skirt with red embroidered silver tuanhua fine pleats, a towering bun with two-color peonies and golden steps, and a goose yellow flower on the center of his eyebrows, while Shu Tingshi wore a hat and a gold silk beaded leather belt at the waist.

Shu Tingshi looked at it for a while and saw that a pair of children were pretending to be passable, and then nodded and said, "You two should go to the upper hall with me to meet General Duan." ”

This general is Shu Thorn prehistoric day before the chance acquaintance of the post house, desperate and anxious, he cheekily borrowed the other party from the samurai to find the missing girl, now Shu Bing has returned home safely, even if the other party failed to help, he has to go to thank him.

The upper hall is a accommodation courtyard located on the east side of the post house, Shu Bing stepped into this place only to see lush flowers and plants, carved beams and painted beams in the eaves corridor, obviously higher specifications, no wonder it is called "up".

After entering the hall, Shu Bing raised his eyes and saw a man in front of him who was smiling and getting up to greet him, he was about thirty-five or sixteen years old, wearing a white thin sweatshirt, covered with a translucent bamboo leaf green light yarn collared single coat, with a white face and beard, and his eyebrows were handsome and kind, like a literati, not at all like a general.

Shu Tingshi repeatedly called him "panicked" because of him, which shows that the main family must be financial. After a while, Shu Bing's mouth was bitter, and he no longer had the mood to speculate on these details.

High energy ahead, how should a four-year-old girl salute her elder?! There was no one to teach in the village, and I didn't care about the formal ceremony when I saw my relatives before, but now I am about to show my stuffing.

Grandpa's bending over is definitely wrong, so should you learn from A-Niang to bend her knees and clasp her hands to say ten thousand blessings, or learn A-Yi to kneel and bow her hands and kowtow?

Shu Bing almost broke out in a cold sweat, so he had to kneel down and bow as if he had worshiped the Buddha before. Before she finished her set of movements, Shu Bing heard Li's gasp, obviously making a mistake, so she had to get up and hang her head to the side.

Li glared at Shu Bing as if he hated iron and steel, and was very irritable.

The four-year-old lady was lost for a while, although it was not involved in chastity and other comments, but after all, it was not a good thing, and now she forgot all the old things and went out like a village girl, which was simply embarrassing.

"This, this, this is really rude! The little girl seems to be frightened after she gets lost, and now she is still a little confused. Shu Tingshi immediately bowed down and apologized on behalf of his daughter.

"It doesn't matter." The other party smiled generously and waved his hand, and said softly: "Ling Aishang is young, and it doesn't matter if you learn it again." After speaking, he also signaled his maid to give Shu Bing a demonstration of women's solemn worship. It was so embarrassing that her cheeks were hot, and she secretly hated to see others pass through it so easily, but she was pitted one step at a time.

Later, everyone was finally able to sit down and greet each other.

Shu Tingshi and Li repeatedly thanked him, and said that after he was about to leave tomorrow, the general Duan immediately threw out an important sentence: "I got a piece of news today that happens to be closely related to Thorn History, and I am looking for you to tell you one or two, which is a coincidence." ”

Shu Tingshi knew that the other party was well-informed, and he was by no means a targeted person, so he immediately said solemnly: "I want to hear about it." ”

"The barbarians in the remote area of Shu have rioted and there is a beacon fire, which is probably related to the king of Dingyue County, and if you want to come to Shu Thorn Shi, you must rush over day and night." General Duan said an understatement, but it was like a stone falling into the mirror lake, causing countless ripples.

The Shu family no longer had the intention of being guests, so they hurried home to discuss the future itinerary.

Sitting in the hall, Shu Tingshi thought for a while and then said: "Ah Yi, you escort everyone back to Beijing, and the matter of going with me to the post will be discussed after Shuzhou is settled." ”

There is no doubt about this arrangement, his wife Li Fanggang has a body and can't stand the fatigue of the journey, even if she arrives in Shu along the way, who knows if the war will affect the state mansion?

Ah Bing had just experienced a change again, how could she be frightened again, not to mention, returning to the familiar place in the capital must be more beneficial for her to quickly recover her memory and health.

Shu Xingsheng was not satisfied with his grandfather's arrangement, he originally planned to study for a year, go to Shudi with his father to be a staff member, and then go to participate in the imperial examination the year after tomorrow, but now he wants to return to Beijing in the face of war, and he lost the opportunity to enter the military in vain.

However, he was helpless, and it was impossible to leave the pregnant Li and his younger siblings behind.

Li Shi also noticed Ah Sheng's dark and inky complexion, and the headache disappeared in an instant, and then he looked at his husband with worried eyes: "As the saying goes, 'one Yang and two Shu', isn't that quite a prosperous realm?" Why are there still barbarian rebellions? ”

Shu Hongyang shook his head and sighed: "Shuzhou has jurisdiction over the four counties of Jinyuan, Xinjin, Tangxing and Qingcheng, beyond Qingcheng to the west is Jinchuan, and to the north is Wenchuan County, all of which are barbarian gathering places. ”

"Then I'd better take the children back to Beijing, I can't make a mess for you," Li Shi frowned and asked worriedly after speaking, "How is the team arranged?" If you escort us in half, you will have too few men with you. ”

If it all goes to the husband and takes it away...... It is more than ten days away from the capital, and when I came, I also passed through mountains and wilderness, isn't it very dangerous for Ah Sheng and himself and others?

"Lady, I'm really sorry, I don't dare to neglect the uncertain future of this trip, so I can only divide a few powerful ones for Ah Sheng to lead," Shu Tingshi added with a look of guilt, "General Duan and his wife are also going to enter Beijing, I plan to beg him to take you along the way, and you can be safe if you want to be taken care of by the general." ”

As soon as these words came out, Ah Sheng's face became even worse, and even the Li family showed a hesitant expression.

Li Shi pondered it again and again, and finally couldn't help but open his mouth: "General Duan is indeed kind and charitable, but he is a close favorite of the Son of Heaven, if he travels on the same road, he will inevitably be too close, right?" ”

"Grandpa keeps claiming that his general is not just close (just flattering). Duan Jian Jun's military envoy's military honor is General Guide, right? It is still one level away from General Huaihua. Ah Sheng said sarcastically.

He was very dissatisfied with his father's arrangement, it is said that the prince of Dingyue County is only not far ahead, and he can walk with him in a little hurry, so he is still a serious in-law of his grandfather's family, why do he have to make friends with Duan Jianjun?

"Exactly, exactly, why don't you go quickly to find Xi Shizi? Ah Sheng and his family are both scholars, and it is not good to get too close to General Duan. The Li family also thought of the Dingyue County Palace, nodded again and again, and almost said directly, "My father and ancestors are all Qingliu, how dare they be with the eunuchs?" ”

"You know a ball!" Shu Hongyang was stimulated by the contemptuous eyes of his wife and son, and lowered his voice and slapped the table angrily, "How many people want to talk to him, and he can't talk about it-I don't know if people agree or not." ”

Shu Thorn Shi has been immersed in officialdom for decades, as the second son of a poor family, he entered the official with martial arts, and the official to the fourth grade step by step naturally has his advantages, which can be described as both good at military affairs and knows how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages.

He is very optimistic about the prince of Dingyue County, the king of Xianjun is not liked by Jinshang, and now this little one seems to be a little unclear, and he can't wait to hide away, and it is impossible to agree with his wife and children to rush over.

Shu Tingshi scolded his eldest son so much that he didn't dare to raise his head, but Shu Bing, who was listening, finally suddenly realized: Scholars are unwilling to add a prison to their close favorites who bend over and bend their knees, isn't this what the powerful eunuch means? No wonder the man was so polite that he didn't look like a marching man at all!

She was drinking chilled buttermilk, she was surprised and breathed, and suddenly choked, and everyone hurriedly patted her back and handed over water, which happened to interrupt Shu Tingshi's angry scolding and relieve Ah Sheng.

The conversation came to an end, and there was no room for return, Shu Tingshi ordered someone to set off, Li sent someone to take a pair of children to wash and rest, and she herself and her eldest son Xingsheng commanded the slaves and maids to pack up their bags overnight and prepare to return to Beijing.

The moonlight was shining on this night, and the lights and candles in the courtyard of the atrium were bright. Li sat in front of the porch and fanned an ink fan, looking at the servants who were in a hurry below, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

After a while, she suddenly whispered irritably: "I didn't expect Ah Bing to come back." This was said very lightly, and it was only heard clearly by Ah Sheng, who was standing half a step behind her.

"Only by finding it back can I save my grandfather from complaining about my mother's poor care." Ah Sheng also moved his lips slightly, and replied so softly.

"Hey, yes, I've got it back," Li sighed but her tone didn't fluctuate, and then she changed her words thoughtfully, "Sometimes I always think that if I didn't have them...... Am I going to be like this, tormented? ”

Shu Xingsheng replied to her with an almost silent smile, and whispered to the moon with his hands behind his back: "If there are no other people, how can you and I meet each other?" ”

"Fate? It's just a bad fate. With a soft snort from Li, the fan in her hand suddenly slipped and rolled down the steps.

Shu Xingsheng immediately walked down the steps to help Li pick up the fan, and when he turned around and stepped up the stone steps to return the fan, he suddenly took advantage of the cover of his body and clothes, lightly hooked it in her palm, raised his eyes and spoke affectionately between the four eyes and the flow of his eyes.

Then, Ah Sheng chuckled and whispered: "Bad fate is also fate, if you are lucky-"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a slight grinding sound from the corner of the verandah, and immediately shut up and looked back.

"What?" Li also glanced back, but didn't see any clues.

Ah Sheng replied with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just a cat." But there were doubts in his eyes: what he saw just now seemed to be a plain corner? Or is it a white cat?
