Although the road for transporting gold and merchants was open, there was not much food in total except the previous batch and the batch brought back by Yuan Yanchong just now. Once it was handed over and calculated, there was not much left after excluding what was provided to the Emperor Wei, the princes, kings, and concubines.

After handing the roughly calculated accounts to Yuan Yanchong and taking them back to Fengtian, Pei Jiaoran returned to the Shence Army's camp.

Pei Jiaoran breathed a sigh of relief when he learned from the sergeant at the door that Li Xiujing was not in the camp. He got into the military tent, took off his clothes, and lay on his back on the camp bed.

The mess on the bed has been cleaned up by Li Xiujing, and there is no trace of charm anymore. The bedding beside him was also very clean, and smelled of Xunling Shili Incense. Pei Jiaoran pulled the quilt over him and turned over.

She didn't know how many hours she had slept when she was woken up by a numb feeling. Pei Jiaoran turned his head impatiently, closed his eyes and said vaguely: "Don't make trouble." His hand smoothly pressed against the visitor's warm lips.

The warm palm suddenly touched the dampness, followed by a slight pain. Pei Jiaoran then opened his eyes and met those deep phoenix eyes. The cold mist in her eyes became even worse, and a sneer escaped from her throat.

"Are you awake? I'll bring you some food." Li Xiujing said.

"No, I'm not hungry." Pei Jiaoran sat up and hugged the mattress, "Where were you just now?"

"Going to Qin Huaiyi's side. Since you are not willing to give, I, the Shen Ce Xingying Jiedushi, must show my attitude, right?" Li Xiujing gathered her clothes and sat down next to her, his eyes lingering on her face.

Pretending not to know that Li Xiujing was watching him, Pei Jiaoran told Yuan Yanchong that he had escorted another batch of grain to Chang'an.

"Just wait and see. If it doesn't work, just give it to Qin Huaiyi and the others." Li Xiujing's eyes moved to the crimson lips, and his eyes darkened. He knew that she seemed to be planning for him, but in fact she was paving the way for her official career.

Of course, I have to say that the political dividends Pei Jiaoran gave him were quite good. He was quite satisfied with this. However, he does not dare to ask too much from her politically for the time being, as the current situation is here. He was lucky enough to be able to come back from Heshuo with her help.

"Let me think again about what to do." Pei Jiaoran murmured.

"Jiajia. Can't you care about me?" Li Xiujing's voice and eyes were filled with expectations. His hands covered her exposed skin and pressed against his heart. The soul was cleansed at this moment.

Pei Jiaoran turned his head and looked at him, "What do you care about? Aren't you a good person in front of me? Besides, I gave you an idea. You are self-willed. What does it have to do with me?"

Under the dim candlelight in the tent, Li Xiujing hugged her waist, and the Kunshan jade pieces were weary in the black. Her cheek was pressed against his chest, just like the fantasy sea of ​​love in a gay weird book, her whole body was full of evil. Pei Jiaoran's snowy neck was slightly raised, and his black hair was spread down. It turned into a hazy white glow under the candlelight.

"At this time...by..." Pei Jiaoran squeezed out a trace of reason from the scorching heat.

"No. Everyone has been cleared." Li Xiujing pulled her outstretched arm back, "It will be okay."

The breath with a tidal tone is faintly heard in the ears. Li Xiujing's fingertips rubbed all the way down the side of her neck, arousing a hint of affection.

In the entanglement of power and love, no one knows who has fallen into whose trap. The only thing lingering around him was the sound of breathing that was strenuously and deliberately suppressed. Her Bodhisattva lowers her eyebrows not because she is compassionate to the world, but because she is falling into the world of mortals and is trapped by love, sighing.

The heart and soul gradually calmed down.

"Jiajia, are you leaving?" Li Xiujing scratched the back of her neck with his fingertips. Pei Jiaoran nodded slightly, and his whole body seemed to sink deeper. Little by little, the whispers reached Li Xiujing's ears. He chuckled and tilted his head to peck her ear beads.

The fullness in his eyes could not be concealed, and Li Xiujing reluctantly let her go. The dark purple clothes that were mixed into chaotic clouds suddenly poured all over the ground. But there was still a trace hooked on her ankle, making her want to fall.

She was surrounded by ruthlessness and unrighteousness, but there was also a trace of ungraspable desire hidden inside. There are all kinds of charms under this appearance, which are confusing and deadly.

"It's time for me to go." Pei Jiaoran whispered, "It's not a good thing to delay some things for too long."

"Huh?" Li Xiujing carefully picked up the clothes beside the bed and put them on for her one by one.

"Eat first, don't go hungry." After saying that, Li Xiujing got up and walked out.

All the personal guards near the camp were taken away by him, Li Xiujing, leaving only He Liang standing guard not far away. When I bumped into him at this moment, I looked over with a sly smile.

After coughing a few times, Li Xiujing walked to the fire room with a calm expression.

The military camp has regulations on the use of fire. After the meal is prepared, no fire can be lit without reason. Fortunately, meals had just been prepared in the military camp, and Li Xiujing chose some meals that he thought suited Pei Jiaoran's taste.

It gets dark early in winter, when Li Xiujing comes back. Pei Jiaoran was already sitting under the candlelight, playing with a gold seal in his hand. Hearing the footsteps, he put down his golden seal and walked over.

"The food in the army is rudimentary, so please be patient." Li Xiujing handed Pei Jiaoran hot porridge and saw her frowning. "Don't worry. I have washed these bowls myself and will only use them for you from now on."

Looking back, Pei Jiaoran said in a lazy voice, "It's not that I dislike this, I'm just wondering if I should also symbolically comfort the Shence Army? You have no objection, but there is no guarantee that others will not try to figure out the attitude of the center. "

"Okay. How about I hold a banquet in the camp tomorrow?" Li Xiujing found a piece of sauce meat and put it into Pei Jiaoran's bowl, smiling.

"That's okay. But after tomorrow, I really have to go back. The Wang family has a lot of complaints about me, which is very detrimental to my future entry into the center. I have to find a way to appease them." Pei Jiaoran lowered his eyes and said: His eyelashes trembled slightly, "What's more... I have to be wary of Jia Gonglu and Qin Huaiyi."

Listening to Pei Jiaoran's nagging voice, Li Xiujing's eyes fell silent.

"And since Qin Huaiyi has ambitions. The Shence Army is far less numerous than them, don't you have any ideas?" Pei Jiaoran said in a very rational tone, "The Shence Army had been relying on the eunuchs before. Although the Right Army was more inclined to you, it was not possible to protect them all. It has been infiltrated before. Now that Lieutenant Liu is dead again, Zhang Rang will only be more afraid of you."

Jia and Zhang's calmness made her wary. Although Li Xiujing has been campaigning outside Youshence for a year and a half, all the WeChat posts that should be established have been established. But Cao Wenzhong was Lieutenant You Shence, and after Bao Buqi came in, he used various means to win over some people. These people are lurking in the dark and may give Li Xiujing a fatal blow at any time.

Li Xiujing sighed when he mentioned Lieutenant Liu. He knew why Lieutenant Liu died, and that he could not be where he is today without his support. But Pei Jiaoran's words forced him to face a reality. That is that people's hearts have been the most difficult to control since ancient times. No matter how he builds prestige to convince others, at some point it cannot compare to real favors.

"I plan to find an opportunity to move the army to the East Wei Bridge. That is the fortress of canal transportation. Once the water transportation is completed, it will be a battleground." Li Xiujing said.

"Okay. Just write the memorial, Your Majesty, I will come up with a solution."

Listening to Pei Jiaoran's words, Li Xiujing's eyes felt distressed.

The weight on her shoulders was too heavy.
