Hidden Sky Light

Around dusk, the team reached the city on the way to settle down.

Chen Ling had been curled up in the carriage for a long time. Right now, he was pacing in the outer cabinet while looking at the letter from Huaicheng.

The rebellion of King Tan has come to an end, and letters will be sent to Chen Ling every three days for the aftermath of Fuyang County, so that even if Chen Ling is not around, he can still know what is going on in Fuyang County in time.

She was worried about two things earlier. One is the shortage of food. Chen Xiuyuan and Fan Yu have already raised the food, but it is just a matter of distribution. With the teacher and Fan Yu there, as long as there is order, there will be no panic; the other is that there are still Tan Jin's die-hard wheels in Fuyang County. There is chaos and panic, but with Sheng Wenyu here, Sheng Wenyu acts prudently, and there will be no major chaos in Fuyang County.

So every three days, the progress will come to her. It is a letter written by Sheng Wenyu. Sheng Wenyu knows what she wants to know.

Today's letter is also attached to the teacher's letter.

It was only half a page of paper, and it probably mentioned the praise of Fan Yu, but the more so, the more I felt that Fan Yu's temperament had to be sharpened, and whether it could really sink in or float on the surface, Chen Ling could feel the teacher's attitude. Change, the more people who want to use it, the less anxious they are to use it...

At the end of the paper, I once again reminded the king not to be happy with people and things.

She knew that the teacher was talking about Shen Ci.

Chen Ling put down the letter, and Qi Shan came to the outer cabinet, "Your Majesty, General Shen is here."

She just thought of him...

She was angry with him, and after a whole day, he didn't show up, he deliberately avoided waiting for her to calm down.

Chen Ling didn't say anything, and Qi Shan withdrew.

When serving in front of the monarch, it is important to have a clear ear and eyesight, but a clear mind is even more important. Sometimes it is taboo for the emperor not to speak, and sometimes it is acquiescence.

When Shen Ci entered, Qi Shan withdrew and took the door behind him.

Shen Ci stepped forward, his voice was gentle and inquisitive, "I'm still angry~"

Chen Ling didn't look at him.

He got closer and whispered, "Tsk tsk, why is our Lingling so beautiful when he's angry?"

Chen Ling had to look up at him.

When he was in the East Palace earlier, he would coax people, and now, it is more and more like returning to the earlier days, and he is a little more close and loving than before...

Chen Ling just looked at him and didn't answer.

Shen Ci sighed in his heart, stretched out his arms to embrace her, and said flatteringly, "Wrong, I won't make a fuss in the future, someone has made me angry all day, don't be angry, okay?"

Chen Ling said quietly, "Where's A Nian?"

This is the relief.

The corners of Shen Ci's mouth raised slightly, and if he let go, he could take advantage of the opportunity, then he had to take advantage of the situation to pursue, Shen Ci continued, "A Nian said you were angry, let me take the lead and come over to see you, of course I am a father. Let's coax his mother first, and when the coaxing is done, his mother is relieved and then replace him, right?"

Shen Ci saw that she was silent.

It didn't matter if he didn't say anything, he hugged her and continued, "It's still my son who is brave. For his father's sake, he even contradicted her mother and was kicked out..."

Chen Ling was speechless, "Yes, thanks to your teaching, there has never been..."

Shen Ci coughed lightly and said solemnly, "That's not possible, I want to tell Anian that I am in the same group with his mother, and we must stand firm, how can I contradict my mother, his father doesn't contradict his mother. ."

Chen Ling was very angry and funny.

But it's hilarious and funny...

Shen Ci then smiled and kissed the side cheek, and said warmly, "Why do you look better when you smile~"

Chen Ling said concisely, "Shen Ci, go out."

Shen Ci: "…"

At such a time, only being cheeky can find a way out. Shen Ci sighed, "A Ling, if you go out so quickly, it will be very embarrassing for others to see it. It's a shame to let me stay for a while before going out..."

Chen Ling: "…"

Shen Ci: "…"

Shen Ci sighed, "Then I, I went out, but tomorrow, you are not allowed to be angry with me again?"

He really let go.

Chen Ling looked at him, "Self-safety."

Shen Ci smiled, looked back at her, and said gently, "Aren't you angry?"

He's used to it.

Chen Ling hesitated, but Shen Ci frowned slightly, "A Ling, are you hiding something from me?"

Chen Ling didn't answer.

Shen Ci said seriously, "You must have something to do today, I can't tell if you have something on your mind."

Chen Ling was stunned.

Shen Ci sighed, "Is it related to me?"

Chen Ling still looked at him.

Shen Ci turned back, and this time, instead of teasing her and trying to please her like before, he picked her up like before and looked up at her, "Is there an official remark, saying that you and I are too close, Pressured you?"

The first thing he could think of was this.

Chen Ling: "…"

Shen Ci said again, "Or, someone said that A Nian is like me, it's hard for you to do it here?"

Chen Ling: "…"

Chen Ling said in a deep voice, "Self-safety."

Shen Ci said with a gentle smile, "If someone says that we're too close, we'll stay away, keep a distance, and I'll see you again when the wind blows over; if someone says that A Nian is like me, I'll go with you. A Nian stay away, the same, I will come to see him when the wind blows over. It's okay, it's just that I rarely see you, it's not that I can't see you anymore, I'm fine..."

Chen Ling swallowed softly, "Shen Ci."

Shen Ci continued to laugh and said, "Or, gossip from the court spread to you, saying that you are too fond of Shen Ci?"

Chen Ling looked at him.

He still smiled, "Then you can find a reason to suppress me at the right time, I'm not angry, and I won't take it to heart. If the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach, it's okay for you to be a big brother... But if you want to chase me again Go to the border, don't take too long, I will miss you and Anian."

Chen Lingyu's eyelashes trembled, "Shen Zi'an."

Shen Ci stopped joking, and changed to a low but firm tone, "A Ling, I don't want you to be difficult, and I don't want you to be troubled by this kind of thing all day long, I really don't mind, I only care if you are Not happy, as long as you, A Nian, and my father and brother, you are fine, I am already content, and now, I am happier than ever before, because of you."

Chen Ling's eyes were slightly red.

Shen Ci suddenly became nervous, "Hey, why did the eyes turn red when they said that they were red? I didn't say anything to make you sad, okay, let's not talk about it."

Chen Ling shook his head.

Shen Ci paused, afraid that she would continue to cry, and kissed her lips again, "Don't cry, I asked Anian to come over, he is very worried about you, he is already very sensible, you don't know how skinny I was when I was a child, It's all my fault, don't let Xiao A Nian suffer, okay?"

After Shen Ci finished speaking, he kissed her lips again and said with a smile, "Be obedient."

Shen Ci put her down and was about to turn around when she reached out and grabbed his wrist, "Shen Ci."

Shen Ci smiled and said, "What else is there to order from Your Majesty? Shen Ci listen."

As soon as she finished speaking, she just stretched out her hand, wrapped one hand on the back of his neck and the other on his waist, and said softly, "Shen Zi'an, you are really noisy."

After saying that, she stepped forward, stepped on his instep again, and kissed him on tiptoe.

His feet hurt, but there was a warm warmth between his lips and he couldn't bear to let go, so he stretched out his hand, grabbed her back with one hand, and gently caressed her cheek with the other. The thin calluses on the tiger's mouth made Chen Ling tremble slightly. , stopped to look at him.

Shen Ci's eyes were stained with ambiguity, and he said in a deep voice, "I won't make any noise in the future, so I'll kiss you, okay?"

Before she could answer, he picked her up again.

The two exchanged positions instantly, and he pressed her to one side and kissed deeply.

Chen Ling wanted to push him away, but couldn't.

The kiss continued for a long time, until she was out of breath, and he slowly stopped, his voice was a little erotic, "A Nian is still in the garden, it will be later."

Chen Ling said softly, "I really, didn't think..."

Shen Ci froze: "..."

The corners of Chen Ling's mouth raised slightly, only then did Shen Ci see that she finally smiled. He approached again, and said leisurely, "I said earlier, I'm nervous..."

Chen Ling just hugged the back of his neck and kissed the corner of his mouth lightly.

He also smiled.

It's raining and sunny...

***

At noon the next day, the carriage stopped for a short break.

They come out in the morning, and they usually find a place to rest at noon and drink water to feed their horses.

Shen Ci has been talking with Chi Hongying on a horse this morning. When the team stopped, she saw that Fang Fang brought Anian out, but Chen Ling was not seen.

Shen Ci and Chi Hongying said a few more words, then went to the carriage, "What's wrong with Your Majesty?"

She can sit still and do things quietly on weekdays, but she will feel uncomfortable after curling up for a long time, so when she is basically resting, she will come down for a walk, sometimes drinking water, sometimes pacing, but not today, He was afraid that she would be uncomfortable.

Qishan replied, "General, Your Majesty has rested, can the General go and have a look?"

Most likely he was here, and Qi Shan would not stop him.

Shen Ci remembered what he said to Chen Ling yesterday. Although Chen Ling still didn't say what happened in the end, what he could avoid these few days was to try his best to avoid it. The eagle was riding a horse and talking, but did not go to Chen Ling's carriage. Now, he also said softly, "No need, let me know if there is something."

Qishan should be fine.

Immediately arriving in Beijing, he should be more restrained.

Shen Ci turned back and was about to find A Nian when he heard a voice calling him from behind, "General Shen!"

Shen Ci recognized Shi Huaiyuan's voice.

When Shen Ci turned around, Shi Huaiyuan just jumped off the horse, and the forbidden army stepped forward to lead the horse for him.

Shen Ci smiled.

In the past two days, Chen Ling had arranged things for Shi Huaiyuan, so Shi Huaiyuan had not been in the **** team, and just caught up.

The two happened to be pacing and talking in one place.

Since it was something Chen Ling had instructed alone, Shen Ci didn't ask Shi Huaiyuan, but just asked, "Is it going well?"

Shi Huaiyuan nodded.

"Water bag." Shen Ci called out, just past Xiao Wu's side, Xiao Wu was still chatting with someone, and when he heard his voice, he threw the water bag over.

Shen Ci took it and took a sip.

Shi Huaiyuan smiled as he walked, "General is still the same as before."

Shen Ci smiled, "Isn't it?"

The team also had to rest here for a while, and the two stopped at the hill.

"By the way, General Shen, Your Majesty mentioned earlier that after returning to Beijing, the general will take over as the commander of the forbidden army. This is something that will be sorted out at the end of these few days. You can take a brief look at the general before entering Beijing. After arriving in Beijing, you will feel more confident. Not counting the scriptures, they're all brief primers. The scriptures are all in Beijing, and the general can be transferred to see when he returns to Beijing." Shi Huaiyuan finished speaking and presented it to him.

Although Shi Huaiyuan served as the deputy envoy of the left avant-garde of the forbidden army in the forbidden army, but the commander of the forbidden army in Beijing was the old General Wenchang, but he was actually a name.

Shi Huaiyuan is taking care of everything under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Guard.

Shen Ci is different from Shi Huaiyuan.

Shen Ci himself was the actual coach at the border gate of Licheng. This time he was successful in escorting him. If he was transferred back to Beijing, he could only be promoted.

Shen Ci always knew that Shi Huaiyuan was comprehensive, but when he opened the booklet and glanced at it, he couldn't help laughing.

It's no wonder that I just said that it's not a serious book, it's just a brief primer. It's true, who and who is a moth, what's good, what's taboo, everything...

Shi Huaiyuan also laughed, "The general also knows that most of the officials in the Imperial Army are children of noble families, and it is difficult to deal with and manage. The general has been away from Beijing for four years, and some of these people know and some don't. Many of them are stunned young people who have just entered Beijing, and the generals will destroy them after reading them."

Shen Ci smiled.

The two actually knew each other very early.

When the late emperor wanted to take Chen Ling back to Beijing, it was Shi Huaiyuan and Shen Ci.

Shi Huaiyuan was on duty in the Imperial Army at that time, and he was also one of the children of the Yao Mozi family in the earlier Imperial Army.

"By the way, when the general returns to Beijing this time, there will inevitably be some people in the forbidden army who will stumble the general; in addition, this time with His Majesty's Ziyiwei being merged into the main series, there will inevitably be complaints and conflicts among the forbidden army, and the general is not easy to do. , you need to prepare in advance." Shi Huaiyuan reminded.

Shen Ci replied, "I see."

Shi Huaiyuan looked at him, "General, is there something I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Shen Ci smiled and said, "General Shi, please speak."

Shi Huaiyuan said, "Your Majesty has a steel scale in his heart, knowing that there would be a lot of resistance to letting the last general take over the post of commander of the Imperial Guard, so the old general Wenchang was put on a temporary basis, and the last general was the deputy envoy of the left avant-garde. Your Majesty told the last general at the time that if he helped I, in the eyes of others, I will always be just a person placed in the Imperial Army by His Majesty, and no one will really believe me; but if I can resist myself, then I will truly be the deputy envoy of the Imperial Army's left avant-garde. I am afraid the same is true for generals , The matter of the forbidden army in the capital, no matter how much trouble is made, His Majesty will not be biased. He has not dealt with it before, and will not care about it in the future. General Shen must not think that His Majesty has only given an empty title, and these guys are not easy to deal with. "

After Shi Huaiyuan finished speaking, Shen Ci understood, "Thank you, Huaiyuan."

Shi Huaiyuan handed over, "General, Huaiyuan has other things to do, so retire first."

Shen Ci nodded.

Looking at Shi Huaiyuan's back, Shen Ci also wanted to know that Shi Huaiyuan had suffered a lot in the hands of the children of this noble family, so he specially warned him.

Shen Ci lowered his head and smiled, inexplicably remembering when he first went to Licheng to garrison the army.

"Have you heard? A noble family from Beijing!"

"What aristocratic family, I heard that he is the confidant of the prince!"

"You know the shit, it's the prince's companion reading, that is, reading with the prince, and leading a horse to the prince."

"Yo, how can you come to a place where birds like us don't poop?"

"Bah, what kind of family son, offended the prince, come to this kind of place, it is not a lost dog, can you go back? Dream!"

These people should not know that Shen Ci is behind the stables, but he has been in the garrison for a few days. He has heard this a lot, and it is not surprising to hear it again, but he still feels uncomfortable when he hears it.

Shen Ci didn't say a word, but continued to feed the horse with grass.

Little can't bear to make big plans, his mouth is on people, he has nothing to say.

"I told you a few of you, don't look down on others, the thin dead camel is bigger than a horse, and can be a companion to the East Palace, will it be better than you crooked melons and cracked dates?"

Shen Ci's eyes were slightly stagnant. This was the first time someone in the army spoke for him.

If you want to speak for him.

Shen Ci moved Shen Ci and looked through the gap. This was the first time he looked at Xue Chao carefully, but he remembered it.

Appreciate the gratitude, no one fell into trouble at this time, they were all good people.

"Cut! Then I didn't see the general let us let him!"

"Still let it go, then do you still want to call out Second Young Master?"

"Come and wait for your second son to change clothes."

Laughter all around.

He was nothing, but when Lao Qi, who came back with water, heard it, he couldn't help it, "I'm **** your uncle!"

Lao Qi threw the bucket and started directly with the man just now.

Shen Ci was startled, and hurried forward, but Lao Qi and the other party were shocked and scuffled in one place, Shen Ci pulled, "Lao Qi! Let go!"

Someone on the opposite side shouted, "Yo, here comes the one with the surname Shen, beat him up!"

"Second son!" Lao Qi just called out, and was immediately restrained by several people, "Second son!"

"Hey, the second son!" The leader smiled, "Come on, let's loosen the muscles and bones of the second son!"

The surroundings burst into laughter again.

Shen Ci frowned, remembering this person and this voice.

Fighting in the army, more than ten people is a common thing, it is also common for someone to be knocked out, he knows that the comer is not good.

One person will definitely be unable to beat more than ten people. Shen Ci is clear, but he also knows that if he retires, these people will come back in the future, and he will never be able to lift his head in the army.

General Liu knew that he was the son of the Shen family, but he did not instruct the army to take care of him, which means that General Liu acquiesced in one thing - if he couldn't control these people, he wouldn't be able to stay at the border...

He could only stay there, with nowhere else to go.

In the face of people swarming up, Shen Ci was very clear.

He doesn't care who beats him, he only catches the one who took the lead to loosen his muscles and beat him to death.

I understand, it hurts!

Beating and beating, everyone around is stunned, and Lao Qi is also stunned!

The man in the lead was beaten until his nose was blue and his face was swollen, "I'm **** your uncle!"

Others stepped forward and wanted to pull Shen Ci away, but Shen Ci didn't let go, and the others couldn't pull it away. With this effort, Shen Ci almost knocked the man out, and he didn't do well himself, but the man was caught. He pressed it on the ground and beat him, and finally grabbed the man's collar and said fiercely, "Remember to keep your mouth clean in the future! I heard it clearly, your grandfather's name is Shen Ci! Shen Zi'an!"

Han Guan was stunned.

Shen Ci only let go, and shouted at the person holding Lao Qi, "Let go!"

Those people quickly let go.

Shen Ci actually remembered it, but he really didn't have the strength to get up. It was Xue Chao who stepped forward and stretched out his hand to him, "You have a lot of backbone!"

Shen Ci smiled, "Thank you!"

That was the first sentence he said to Xue Chao.

"Second son, are you alright?" Lao Qi also stepped forward.

Shen Ci wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth and said, "Old Qi, there will be no second son here in the future, just like them, call me Shen Ci!"

"Fuck! You really beat you to death~" Han Guan also spat out blood, "I didn't beat you."

But seeing Shen Ci's gaze, Han Guan couldn't help shivering.

Guo Zixiao said with a smile, "Don't **** brag, you haven't hit anyone before."

Han Guan was annoyed, "Come on, come on! Guo Zixiao, don't stand talking without back pain, come and try."

"Come on! Who is afraid of who!" Guo Zixiao stepped forward.

Then Guo Zixiao fought with Han Guan again.

Xue Chao stepped forward and handed Jinchuang plaster to Shen Ci, "Hey, take it, it's commonly used in the military."

Shen Ci took it and thanked again.

Xue Chao smiled and said, "No thanks, just call me Lao Xue."

…

Later, they fought with Xirong.

Han Guan was wounded by an arrow in the leg, surrounded by Xi Rong's pursuers. It was Shen Ci who ran behind his back. Han Guan cried and trembled, "Shen Ci, your uncle! Who wants you to be fake! I'm dead! No."

While running out of breath, Shen Ci responded, "Call Grandpa!"

"Shen Ci, I'm **** your uncle!" Han Guan blurted out.

Then he shot another arrow behind his knee, and Shen Ci said angrily, "Shut up!"

Han Guan is honest.

…

Putting away his thoughts, Shen Ci clenched his fists and chuckled again.

Lao Xue was his first friend at the border.

Then came Han Guan and Guo Zixiao.

Xue Chao became his sideguard in the future, because Xue Chao was no match for Han Guan and Guo Zixiao, but he inquired about the news and sneaked into Xirong. Xue Chao was a good player...

Time flies so fast, turn to four years.

Shen Ci sighed in his heart, and when he went back after the new year, he would run horses on the pasture with Lao Xue, Han Guan, and Zi Xiao, and gallop at the border gate.

People are always greedy.

He also wants to take his most beloved girl to the border gate for horseback riding, get close to her on the grassland, sit in the sky at night, and pick the brightest stars for her...

Shen Ci smiled.

***

In another place, the people of Harmia finally arrived at the city. The people beside Harmia were okay, they looked the same as the Yanhan people, and Harmia put on the human skin mask again.

Two Xirong people went to buy horses, and two Xirong people went to prepare dry food.

Harmia was talking with another man.

Just as Xue Chao led the horse away from the stable, he and two Xirong people met him head-on. The Xirong people looked at him, and his expression was as usual.

Siron...

Xue Chao's heart was pounding, he couldn't see it, the Xirong people's movements, demeanor, and eyes, although they were pretending, were the same as the last time they hunted down Harmia in Qucheng.

Xue Chao did not move.

Separated from General Guo earlier, he has been with Hu Bo all the way.

Two days ago, he happened to meet the garrison that was heading west. He asked the garrison to take Hu Bo along with him. He wanted to stay nearby to inquire about the news, but he did not expect to meet him...

There are only a few days' journey to Licheng from here, so Harmia cannot be allowed to run away.

Xue Chao also remembered what the general told him.

- Be careful with yourself, if you encounter Xirong people, don't hit hard.

Xue Chao looked around, no one should be watching, and he was convinced that the Xirong man he had just met was still in the stable. Xue Chao quickly took a pen and paper letter from the shop on the side, paid money to have it delivered to the official residence, and waited. When they came out, they clearly saw the traces of the two Xirong people in the distance, but in the blink of an eye, there were no traces.

Xue Chao faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he was afraid of losing his trace.

The general's words came to his mind again, don't hit him hard, Xue Chao turned his head and didn't continue to chase, but when he walked to the alley, he clearly noticed that someone was following him.

Xue Chao was inactive, and suddenly lifted the wood in the street and ran forward desperately.

The people behind are chasing after them.

Xue Chao broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, knowing that there was going to be an accident when he stopped, but when he came to the street, he was forced to retreat again.

Harmia smiled and said, "I know you, you are a Shen Ci person."

Xue Chao frowned, "I don't understand what you are saying."
