"General!"
Qin Laowu made up his mind, stepped forward and pushed open the door.
He knew that this was very unruly, but he did not feel guilty at all. Instead, he raised his head righteously and met Fu Tingye's slightly surprised eyes: "General, I have important military information to report."
A trace of displeasure flashed in Fu Tingye's eyes, but he remained silent.
Qin Laowu then pretended to belatedly see the woman beside him... Hey, isn't this a child
Where is the legendary woman...where is the person.
Tongtong stood in front of Fu Tingye, looking at Qin Laowu who suddenly broke in, with no fear in his expression.
Fu Tingye looked down at her: "I've frightened you, haven't I? This man has always been so unruly. Do you want to punish him?"
His tone was calm, as if he was talking about family matters, but every word he said was to punish himself. Qin Laowu felt cold sweat on his back: "General! General! I didn't mean it, I really have an emergency military situation!"
Fu Tingye raised his eyebrows and glanced at him. Qin Laowu immediately shut up.
Tongtong stretched out his hand and pulled Fu Tingye's sleeve. The relationship between the elder and the younger was surprisingly harmonious. Fu Tingye lowered his head, still looking docile, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
It was just such tenderness that Qin Laowu who was standing by looked more and more frightened. A terrible premonition suddenly came out. Sure enough, the next moment, Fu Tingye gave instructions in a pleasant tone.
"Write down the urgent military information and submit it on a note, and immediately receive twenty military sticks. What does Tongtong think?" He was talking about asking the little girl for her opinion. In fact, the idea had been made up.
Qin Laowu was about to cry but had no tears. His knees softened and he knelt down: "General, I know I was wrong. No, I just saw that my wife didn't come in. I mistakenly thought..."
"Has Madam been here?" Fu Tingye finally calmed down and asked coldly.
Qin Laowu nodded like a drum.
A hint of worry flashed across Fu Tingye's expression, but he calmed down instantly. However, this subtle emotion was captured by the cautious Tongtong next to him.
"It's okay." Fu Tingye responded calmly: "Madam knows that I can't be disturbed when I'm discussing matters in the study, but you do the opposite. It shows that your sense of military discipline is worse than even Madam's."
"..." Mr. Qin couldn't argue.
Hua Qingxue did tell him not to disturb the general before leaving just now, but he... got it wrong.
What an injustice.
The room suddenly fell silent, and you could hear a pin drop.
But at this moment, Tongtong suddenly smiled, a very strange smile, as if she was watching a joke. She looked at Qin Laowu, then at Fu Tingye, and nodded silently.
Qin Laowu looked at her actions and instantly lost all hope.
"Tongtong also thinks that such punishment is excellent?" Fu Tingye also laughed, but his smile was slightly cold.
"Then do it."
Ten thousand "nos" ran through Qin Laowu's heart.
After Qin Laowu received the punishment and left, the confused harmony between Fu Tingye and Tongtong disappeared instantly, and both of them had indifference on their faces.
"Even my lieutenant was fooled. Such acting skills are really good." Fu Tingye suppressed his smile and looked serious.
Tongtong's innocent smile turned into a sneer: "Thank you, General, for the compliment. What about what we just talked about?"
"One word is settled." Fu Tingye said concisely and concisely.
"What about Madam?" Tongtong frowned: "I don't know how much Madam heard just now?"
Fu Tingye pondered for a moment: "I will handle the matter myself, Madam. You just need to fulfill your promise."
"Okay. General, remember what you promised me." Tongtong's tone was firm, and his whole person had an extraordinary maturity and stability.
Fu Tingye nodded: "I will have someone escort you to Nanzhao safely."
Tongtong felt relieved and immediately changed his expression, looking innocent: "General, do you want to escort me out? I walked out of the general's study alone like this. Anyone who sees it will think too much."
Fu Tingye nodded: "Wait for me at the door."
"Yes." Tongtong turned around and was about to go out, but his eyes fell on the military information note left by Qin Laowu just now, and he hesitated.
Fu Tingye caught her curious gaze and sneered for a moment: "Why, are you still interested in this?" As he said this, he picked up the note with two fingers and deliberately put it in front of Tongtong's eyes.
Tongtong was startled, stunned for a moment, and then said in awe: "I don't dare." After saying that, he walked out quickly.
Fu Tingye stared at her back and disappeared through the door. Then he opened the note and glanced at it. He couldn't help but take a breath.
I saw the note saying: The Liao Kingdom has stationed a large number of troops on the border with evil intentions!
Fu Tingye clenched his fists, and a sharp light flashed in his deep eyebrows.
…
In the backyard of the imperial palace, the most desolate palace, Qianqing Palace.
The Qianqing Palace had not been taken care of for a long time, so the flowers, plants and trees grew wildly according to their own will, stretching out from the walls, showing their strong vitality.
Chen Yuan seemed to be walking casually, but his purpose was clear. However, when he approached the palace gate, the guards at the door had already stepped forward to stop him: "My lord, the Queen Mother has ordered that no one is allowed here." Enter."
Chen Yuan had a solemn expression and sharp eyes, staring at the two of them coldly.
After a while, he burst into laughter and reached out to pat the two of them on the shoulders: "Don't worry, brother, I naturally know that this is a forbidden area that the Queen Mother has ordered. No, it is the Queen Mother who arranged for me to come over and inspect it. I must be worried about you." I am very relieved to be on duty.”
What he said... Anyone with a little bit of brains would know that what he said was ironic, right
Since the Queen Mother is relieved, there is no need to send someone to patrol... It is obviously for surveillance.
Chen Yuan saw the momentary displeasure on the two people's faces and suddenly became happy: "It turns out that you are the most sincere guards of our Daqi. I will report back to the Queen Mother truthfully."
The two guards clasped their fists and said, "Thank you, Mr. Manager."
Chen Yuan smiled like a thief, and suddenly came closer and said, "To be honest, women are like this, they are too narrow-minded, so don't take it to heart."
The dignified steward actually comforted them for their temporary dissatisfaction, and the two of them were more or less touched.
"Thank you, Mr. Manager, for your understanding. If you have any instructions from the Mr. Manager in the future, just ask, and we will do our best."
Chen Yuan quickly waved his hand: "We are all brothers, don't talk about these, don't talk about these, you are busy first, I will walk around."
"Please, Mr. General Manager." The two of them clasped their fists and watched Chen Yuan's figure disappear from sight, then reached out to brush away the fine beads of sweat on their foreheads: "Think about the difference between the former Mr. General Manager and the current Mr. General Manager. .”
"Yes, Chen Yuan has no airs at all, and he is considerate to those of us below. Anyway, I obey him."
"Yes, yes, after all, Chen Yuan climbed up from the bottom like us. He can understand our hard work, unlike the previous one..." Another guard was about to say the name, but his mouth was suddenly covered by the person next to him. .
"How big of a heart do you have? Although that person is no longer in office, he is the nephew of the Queen Mother after all. We cannot afford to offend him."
"Yes, yes, thank you for reminding me, brother."
Chen Yuan had already walked far away and naturally did not hear the subsequent conversation between the two, and his heart was not at all about it.
Looking around, he saw that it was a blank spot for the palace guards to patrol. Chen Yuan got close to the vegetation and ducked in from the side.
The palace patrol guards would conduct regular patrols in each palace. Therefore, Chen Yuan hid in the bushes and did not move immediately, but waited quietly.
The sun sets in the west and the birds return to their nests.
For most of the day, countless patrols of guards passed in front of him and came back, but none of them noticed his hiding place.
"That's the extent of the palace's defense strength." When Chen Yuan finally moved, it was late afternoon, and the weather was deep in winter. At this time, everything was dark, and you couldn't see your fingers around the bushes.
At this time, it was also the time for the guards to change shifts. Chen Yuan calculated that he had a quarter of an hour, but this was enough.
Li Jingnan sat quietly in the main hall. The sound of charcoal fire in the stove beside him did not affect his reading mood at all.
His eyes swept over the pages of the book like water, and his consciousness communicated with the contents of the book. This feeling was very wonderful, as if time stood still around him, allowing him to forget his situation, his identity and responsibility.
Maybe this is also a relief.
However, the Qianqing Palace tonight is destined to be not very peaceful.
A subtle sound came in, and Li Jingnan's eyes lifted from the pages of the book. Outside the palace gate, the shadows of the trees were caressing, and the moonlight covered the ground like milk.
Everything is the same as before, not a bit has changed, but it is clear that something is different.
Moreover, the footsteps tonight were not from the Queen Mother, because there was no unpleasant fragrance in the air.
"Now that you're here, show up." Li Jingnan spoke silently, his voice hoarse and unpleasant. It was caused by not speaking for a long time. After finishing speaking, he had to cough to moisten his throat.
Chen Yuan climbed in from a secluded palace wall by climbing a branch. In fact, he arrived near the main hall early. However, when he saw Li Jingnan for the first time, he was still so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
Zi Wan's reminder had already let him know the identity of the young man in front of him in advance. As the most noble person in the entire Da Qi Kingdom, he actually lived like a caged bird. However, no matter how bad the environment was, the noble and extraordinary aura of the young man, and the faint The majesty is still revealed.
Perhaps, this is the spirit of the true dragon.
Chen Yuan admitted that he was so frightened by the spirit of the real dragon that he stopped outside the main hall, as if he was a child who accidentally entered the holy land. For a moment, he felt ashamed and inferior.
This is something Chen Yuan has never experienced since he was a child.
But... He had been bold since he was young, so he calmed down instantly and walked slowly up the steps, taking every step very calmly.
Li Jingnan closed the page in front of him without looking at him, and he was not surprised at all. Or maybe, in fact, this moment was a scene that he had expected to happen countless times.
Therefore, he is also very calm.
