Chapter 32 The General Comes Down
After lunch, Xie Bingyuan had nothing to do, and remembered the scene of the back garden that day, so she got up and went out, ready to go to the back garden.
She didn't wear any makeup, but only a little lip balm, but it can be said: her vermilion lips are a little peachy, and her beauty is astonishing.Xie Bingyuan adjusted her clothes in front of the bronze mirror, and didn't put on a black cloak until she was free of blemishes and went out.
This is her usual style, even if she goes out to enjoy the scenery, she should be well-dressed.
Going north after leaving the door, she arrived at the back garden in a short time. She lived in the center of the General's Mansion, so it was more convenient to go anywhere.
She has seen the pavilions, towers, pavilions, rockery, flowers and plants once before, but the scenery in the mansion is wonderful, the scenery of the four seasons is different, and the scenery of day and night is also different, so after it does not snow, it will have a good time again.
Several servants saw her walking straight to the back garden, and did not stop her. They all recognized this unparalleled guest, and the general also ordered Xie Bingyuan to come and go freely.
She walked quietly like a delicate flower shining in the water. After passing by the servants, the servants still stared at her back in silence, as if they hadn't recovered.
There is a stone arch in the back garden, with intricate patterns carved on the stone, probably the age is irrelevant, when Xie Bingyuan walked into the back garden, the surroundings really quieted down, only a few servants trimmed the flowers and plants.
The garden is very clean, occasionally there is the rustling sound of the wind blowing, it is really rare and quiet.
She walked to the depths of the garden and just passed through a pavilion when she heard the sound of scissors colliding. Pine branches that look greener after the snow melts.
Xie Bingyuan's heart skipped a beat, presumably this is the male favorite who was sent by Shen Qingjue to "plant flowers and grass".The young man has red lips and white teeth. He is wearing a big white robe. His hands are slender like a girl's. You can see the veins under the smooth skin. He is very thin and has a small face. She feels pity for him.
The young man sensed that someone was coming, looked up, and felt that there was a fairy sister in front of him for a moment.
Since he was a child, he has never really conceded defeat in terms of appearance, but now that he has met Xie Bingyuan, he feels that his only outstanding feature is not uncommon.
Like fireflies meeting the moonlight.
"Greetings, Miss." The young man didn't know how to salute, he threw down the scissors awkwardly, bent over and clasped his fists.
"No need." Seeing his appearance, Xie Bingyuan's heart skipped a beat, thinking of how she practiced kung fu year after year when she was young, until today, "What's your name?"
"I was sold by my family since I was a child... I only know that my surname is Chi, and I don't have a name... so I don't have a name." The boy lowered his head, and he was a little ashamed to be stared at by Xie Bingyuan like this.
There were some mud spots splashed on the upper and lower sides of the rough white robe, and he moved his feet more awkwardly.
Xie Bingyuan sensed his embarrassment, and looked away: "Is this job easy?"
"It's okay, it's not heavy, it's not heavy."
"You will be called Chi Dongxia from now on."
"Chi Dongxia..." The young man muttered a few words, "It sounds good, thank you miss."
"En." After Xie Bingyuan finished speaking, she didn't linger any longer, and continued to walk towards the garden.
Chi Dongxia picked up the scissors again, feeling energetic all over his body. He is no longer a villain without a name. From now on, when someone asks his name, he can answer "I am Chi Dongxia".
Shen Qingjue had lunch with Huanrong after sending Lianxiao away. The mother and daughter didn't have much to say, so the meal was relatively peaceful. Shen Qingjue didn't like greasy food and only ate light sweets or pasta. On the grounds of practicing Buddhism, all meat is eliminated.
That's why this table was clean and watery. If it wasn't for its excellent appearance, it would be no different from the vegetarian meal in the temple.
She didn't stay long, and set off back to the General's Mansion after dinner.
Xiao Liyang arrived outside the imperial study very early, took the ginseng soup that was about to be sent up from the chief eunuch, and held it by himself, waiting for Xiao Tailiang to finish the discussion.
She wore a long pink dress today, which was the same as before. When she wanted to wear yellow, she always remembered how her master was wearing a yellow robe, so she didn't want to wear it much.
The discussion finally came to an end, several ministers walked out of the room to salute her, she returned the salutes one by one, sent the ministers away and hurried into the imperial study.
"Father~" Xiao Liyang put the ginseng soup on the desk with a pile of memorial letters, and then sat on the dragon chair next to Xiao Tailiang, which can be said to be very presumptuous.
"Why is Yang'er here?" Xiao Tailiang was nearly middle-aged, but he was very temperamental in his gestures. Now that he saw his only daughter, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were curved.
"Yang'er wants to go out of the palace to see the master, and also wants to see sister Qingjue." Xiao Liyang shook Xiao Tailiang's arm, and Xiao Tailiang was made to laugh out loud by her.
"You are a princess now, you have to pay attention to your identity, how can you leave the palace casually, think of master, you should also let him come to the palace to meet you. As for Qing Jue, I will go to the military camp for inspection tomorrow, and then I will bring you with me, let me see you." You meet your sister Qingjue."
Xiao Liyang's eyes widened, "Father is the best!"
Xiao Liyang left after sitting for a while, she couldn't sit still in the solemn imperial study room, she had been thinking about going to the imperial dining room to eat peach blossom honey osmanthus cake, and asked the maid to bring a whole box of snacks before returning to Yuyang satisfied palace.
The chief eunuch, Eunuch Luo, removed the cold ginseng soup and replaced it with hot green tea. Xiao Tailiang stood up and stretched his muscles, his eyes touched the letter from Huanrong, and his expression was a little complicated.
Even though so many years have passed, his daughter Xiao Liyang is already 17 years old, even though he and Huan Rongtian have been separated for many years.But now, just like when she was in a private school when she was young, it is always difficult to refuse her request.The two are childhood sweethearts, Huanrong wants the west wind, but he dare not let the east wind blow, and Huanrong wants the moon, he dare not pick one more star.
"Alas" Xiao Tailiang sighed, as the saying goes, the heart of an emperor is the most ruthless, and the history books are vast, but it is ruthless to me.
Huanrong searched all over the capital, trying to find a husband for Shen Qingjue.Not to mention whether her apprentice is willing or not, even if her apprentice is willing, how many men in Taijing City can hold his apprentice down?
But by coincidence, Huanrong fell in love with Lianxiao, the prime minister's only son.
Xiao Tailiang frowned, took two steps, and with a wave of his hand, threw the envelope and letter paper into the brazier in front of him.The letter paper was quickly swallowed by the blue flames and shattered into several pieces of black.
Let the only son of the prime minister marry the general?Xiao Tailiang is not crazy yet.
As usual, Xie Bingyuan got up early to change Shen Qingjue's dressing. After a few days of recuperation, her wounds were no longer oozing blood, and the gauze was much less bright red. This situation made Xie Bingyuan very satisfied.
The two of them went to eat together after getting up and changing their dressings every morning. Most of the time they kept silent and said goodbye to their respective things after eating silently. This morning, Shen Qingjue was the same as before. A little lack of interest, just drank a bowl of porridge and didn't move any chopsticks.
Xie Bingyuan glanced at her calmly.
"Yuanyuan..." Shen Qingjue put down the porcelain bowl and said suddenly.
"Huh?" Xie Bingyuan turned her head when she heard the words, a little curious that Shen Qingjue suddenly called her that.
"I'll take you to the barracks today." Shen Qingjue also turned around and stared at her seriously.
"..." Xie Bingyuan didn't speak, she lowered her head in thought, Shen Qingjue didn't urge her, and sat quietly waiting for her to answer.
"Okay, I'll go and have a look." Aside from anything else, she was also curious about life in the army, and if given the chance, she would never give up to a woman.
Shen Qingjue used to have long hair loose behind her back, and today she was going to the military camp, Shi Ling tied her long hair together, making her look more capable and energetic.
The tall figure is wearing the jade white python robe, exuding a dignified aura of calmness and self-prestige, and after putting on the dark blue cloak, even the ten spirits who are often seen shine brightly.
Shi Ling followed the two of them, always feeling that she was superfluous, since Xie Bingyuan had only lived in for a short time, and when she stood with the Princess, there would always be a sense of eternity.
The army was stationed in the northern suburbs of Taijing City, guarding the intersection from Taijing City to Manwuzhou.In the past when there was no war, there was no need for so many troops to garrison, but now the situation in Mu country and surrounding countries is tense, so the number of troops stationed around Taijing City is very large.
For example, there are many soldiers in this place, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the battalion is three hundred miles away.
The two set off earlier, and the carriage also drove very quickly. With the guards leading the way, it can be said that the journey was unimpeded.
Immediately arrived at the north outer city gate of Taijing City, Xie Bingyuan signaled the coachman to stop, Shen Qingjue didn't know why, so he followed Xie Bingyuan out of the carriage.
There is a Town God's Temple here. Taoism regards the Town God as the god of "cutting away evil and eliminating evil, protecting the country and protecting the country". It is said that it can respond to people's requests, rain in droughts, and look out in floods to protect the grain and the people.
Therefore, the incense is constantly burning, and there is an endless stream of people who come here throughout the year.It's cold in winter, and finally there are no crowds of pedestrians in spring and summer, so it has the desolate look that Taoism should have.
There was an old tree in front of the door, with a red string hanging from it. Shen Qingjue never believed in these things, but he also knew that a red string represented a wronged person who prayed. She was just about to tie a red string up when Xie Bingyuan pulled her The sleeves came under the back corner of the Chenghuang Temple.
There is a small stall here, a few wooden sticks are propped up to support a few pieces of cloth to make a shed, an old lady is stirring in a steaming cauldron with a big spoon, and there is a young girl next to her, it looks quite lively.
Seeing that there were still vacant seats, Xie Bingyuan pulled Shen Qingjue into the shed and sat down.
Seeing the extraordinary demeanor of the two, the young girl hurried over to greet them with a blushing face, poured water for them with a teapot in her hand, and rubbed the table vigorously with the rag on her shoulder.
"Two bowls of wontons."
"good"
The two of them were outstanding in appearance, and their clothes were out of tune with the surroundings. While eating, several diners secretly looked at the two people who were sitting upright.
"I saw that you didn't eat much in the morning, so I brought you here." Xie Bingyuan paused, "Of course, if you don't want to, we can leave now."
"In the eyes of Boss Xie, I can't eat the fireworks of the world?" Shen Qingjue was in a good mood when he heard this, but he deliberately opened his mouth with a sense of grievance.
Xie Bingyuan stared at her without speaking.
"Thanks to Yuanyuan remembering me, I'm really hungry now." Shen Qingjue took a white porcelain spoon from the bamboo tube next to him and handed it to Xie Bingyuan, and then said: "The war in the past has not subsided, I went to Liangzhou Manwu In desolate areas such as Zhouzhou, sometimes I don’t even have enough to eat. Although I am in command of the armed forces, I don’t want to eat alone, so sometimes I only have one meal a day.”
Xie Bingyuan took the spoon and looked at her, her eyes moved slightly.
While talking, two bowls of steaming wontons were served.
The thin skin was boiled until it was crystal clear, and the stuffing inside could be seen. There were a few leaves of tender vegetables floating on the soup. The simple ingredients looked very appetizing, so Shen Qingjue scooped one up and ate it without much thought.
The skin almost melted in the mouth, and there seemed to be many kinds of spices in the stuffing, each flavor was very flavorful, Shen Qingjue would get greasy if he ate too much meat stuffing, but there is no need to consider these issues here.
Shen Qingjue lowered his head to eat, and after a while, the ravioli bottomed out, and Xie Bingyuan also stopped his movements.
"Guest, it's time for me to close the stall." The old woman tied a large cloth on her chest, and it seemed that she was waiting for the two of them to finish eating.
"So, let's go." The two looked at each other, and Shen Qingjue took out a silver coin from his sleeve and put it on the table, before turning around and leaving.
"Huh?" The old woman exclaimed while covering the pot, "I see this girl in white is so transparent, how can there be an unconcealable hostility between her brows?"
The two turned around at the same time and looked back at the old woman who spoke.
"I've been here in Chenghuang Temple for 30 years, and it's the first time I've seen such outstanding figures as you two." The old woman bent her back and smiled.
"It's just that this girl is young, so she should do less bloody things."
Shen Qingjue narrowed his eyes, then raised his hands in a bow, and left with Xie Bingyuan without answering.
She didn't take this to heart, and it was even more impossible for her to change her mind just because of a casual old woman's words. She was afraid of blood and retribution, so what kind of general would she want to be.
It's just that Xie Bingyuan kept frowning slightly, as if thinking.
Today Xiao Tailiang was inspecting the situation of the barracks in name, but in fact he was selecting a group of potential noble children, namely Shen Qingjue’s younger brother Shen Jing. The sudden arrival of Xiao Tailiang and Shen Qingjue secretly excited the whole night, everyone wanted to leave a good image in front of the two of them, maybe it would be their success!
Entering the barracks, there is a smell of iron and blood. Soldiers in armor are everywhere, holding spears or practicing or patrolling. Feel fearless.
The two went straight to the biggest martial arts training ground, Shen Qingjue got off the carriage, officials big and small clasped their fists and saluted: "General Shen!" Shen Qingjue also bowed his hands in return, all officials gathered, only Xiao Tailiang was absent at this moment.
Shen Qingjue raised the curtain again, the officials were curious, Shen Qingjue, please get out of the car, who must this be.Could it be His Majesty who came with the general?
The person who came out was a woman, wearing a black cloak, her appearance and temperament surprised them, Xie Bingyuan was neither humble nor overbearing, Shi Shiran got off the carriage.It seems that no matter in the fire scene, in the interrogation room, or on the stage, it has always looked like this.
There were two or three civil servants who had been disobedient to Shen Qingjue whispering.
"An actor, no matter what his status, is also worthy to be in the barracks."
"It's so casual, it's really indecent."
All the officials sat on the field, most of them still didn't have any idea, but those few stubborn and pedantic people who spoke like this were glanced at by Shen Qingjue, and silently memorized their names.
Xie Bingyuan naturally heard it too. She is proficient in rhythm and her hearing is not so good.
Shen Qingjue took her to sit next to the chair, and Xiao Tailiang arrived shortly after she was seated.
Mu Guo was originally a place where Xiao Tailiang's master and apprentice fought on horseback, so he paid special attention to the younger generation's horse bow and horse martial arts, so this inspection was highly valued by him.
People on the martial arts viewing platform stood up and saluted one after another: "Long live Your Majesty!"
Xiao Tailiang sat in the main seat, with a wave of his sleeves, all the officials were flattened, and Xiao Liyang, who was following her, saw Shen Qingjue and Xie Bingyuan, his pretty face immediately brightened.
Shen Qingjue winked at her, Xiao Liyang immediately understood.
"Master!" Her voice was not loud enough, but it could be heard in the quiet martial field.
When did the princess have a master?Everyone followed the prestige and saw Xiao Liyang took two steps and bowed to Xie Bingyuan.
The faces of the previous civil servants were ashamed and annoyed. This status was no less than a direct slap in the face.
The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, even the prime minister, did not let Princess Yuyang call her master.
And this woman with the same appearance, why can she be so calm... Accept it with equanimity?
The corners of Shen Qingjue's lips twitched, and he glanced at the minister, his eyes were full of sarcasm.
The Royal Forest Army escorted the encirclement, and all the princes and nobles were on the spot. After the sound of the drums was heard, all the masters in the army were eager to try.
Shen Qingjue sat next to Xiao Tailiang's right hand one step lower, she crossed her legs and held tea in her right hand, and looked at the crowd of young people in the audience with raised eyebrows.
She seemed to have forgotten that she was a young man now, too.
Noble, domineering, and cold, all kinds of feelings blended in her, indescribably natural.She took a sip of tea casually, and her aura was as good as that of Xiao Tailiang who was wearing a dragon robe.
With an order, the fighting in the arena began.The young athletes in military uniform lined up, bowed their bows and set up arrows, and shot at the target standing a hundred meters away. The arrows flew wildly for a while, and many people hit the target, which attracted applause from inside and outside the stadium.
Shen Qingjue frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied, his right finger rubbed against the edge of the teacup unintentionally, and the green finger was faintly green.
After archery, two teams of cavalry go out on horseback. They charge face to face, kicking their horseshoes. After meeting, both sides shoot their spears and shake their spears.
Lian Xiao was at the end of the team, soloing five or six young generals in robes. He was wearing black armor and stood in the center of the field with a long spear. No one dared to continue to challenge him for a while.
"Okay!" A group of people behind him applauded in unison, Xiao Tailiang also clapped his hands and laughed loudly when he saw this scene, and shouted: "Okay!"
Among the younger generation, apart from Shen Jing who didn't play, Lian Xiao is probably the best among them.
The official son of the prime minister also stroked his long beard on his face, and seemed very satisfied with his only son's performance.
Shen Qingjue looked at Lian Xiao's marksmanship, and secretly sighed in his heart, this marksmanship can be said to be the best of the younger generation.
Just as she was about to praise, she heard a few applause in her ears.
Xie Bingyuan looked at the audience and smiled, and applauded gently.
Shen Qingjue frowned, stared at her with some dissatisfaction, and seemed to say again: "Why are you applauding!"
Xie Bingyuan said: "I think this young master is skilled in marksmanship, he looks like a famous general."
Shen Qingjue: "The skills are at the peak but the aura is lacking, and it's three points short of chilling taste."
After speaking, Lord General put down the teacup and pursed his lips.
Seeing her appearance, Xie Bingyuan couldn't help laughing: "I haven't seen the smell of killing."
Shen Qingjue: "Oh"
The field is not Shen Qingjue's garrison, but the imperial forest army directly under Xiao Tailiang. The prime minister often inspects the barracks here, and Lian Xiao performs very well in it. In addition, they are all seven-foot men. The seal of the general on the palm of the boa robe is dissatisfied.
Shen Jing was on the edge of the field, and took the lead in shouting: "General, please end!"
Shen Qingjue narrowed his eyes, and he had already heard his younger brother's voice.
One word awakened the dreamer, and the guards immediately responded.
"General, please step down!"
"General, please step down!"
They seemed to have forgotten the rumors about Shen Qingjue's mediocre martial arts before.Shen Qingjue squinted at her good brother, it would really embarrass her.If she bets and loses, how much face will she have to lead the three armies?If she doesn't go down, how can she be worthy of her Kyushu garrison?
The shouts became louder and louder, Xie Bingyuan looked at the unclothed person beside her, wondering what she was thinking.
"General, please step down!"
Shen Qingjue suddenly raised his head, picked off the jasper on his right finger, and put it on the round table in front of him with a snap.
She got up and took two steps, overlooking the group of princes and marquises in the middle of the field.
"Okay!" The Imperial Forest Army applauded in unison. In their eyes, if the general dared to act like this, he should be praised.
Shen Qingjue wore a jade-white python robe, and walked down the martial arts platform step by step while everyone was watching, the whole process was completely silent.
Shi Ling brought a white horse with a silver saddle, Shen Qingjue got on the horse, and casually drew a silver pear blossom gun from the weapon clip beside it.
She has never used a gun in front of people, because she only knows one move, and she learned it from a famous general in the Northern Wei Dynasty in her previous life.
So she is not sure, but as the coach, after raising the gun and mounting the horse, is there any way back?
Without delay, Shen Qingjue shot the horse's back with a gun, and the horse and she rushed to the field with a murderous look and laughed.
Even looking at her appearance with a smile, he already knew that she couldn't shoot, but he was also excited by Shen Qingjue's menacing approach.He is the only son of the prime minister of this dynasty, a master of the younger generation of the Imperial Forest Army, would he be afraid of a female general who has never used a gun?
Lian Xiao was ready to take her off the horse with one shot.
With a flick of his spear, he picked out a very beautiful spear with a flickering cold light.Behind him, the Imperial Forest Army applauded together.
The two riders soon met.
With a long smile and a whistling gun, he shot at Shen Qingjue head-on, as if a single shot was going to knock her off the horse.
And the man in the white python robe in front of him turned around, his spear and spear angled strangely, and fired a thunderous shot from bottom to top.
With a flash of red tassels, the long spear struck out quickly at a strange angle, directly hitting the heavy armor on Lian Xiao's chest. The heavy armor instantly cracked several lines, and Lian Xiao was directly dismounted by the gun.
Shen Qingjue reined in the reins, thrust the spear and spear into the ground, and the white horse carried her leisurely for a few steps, as if coming to enjoy the flowers.
"Okay!" Standing on the martial arts viewing platform, Her Royal Highness the Princess shouted loudly first.
Then the Imperial Forest Army also applauded in unison, Shen Qingjue's performance just now had completely shocked them, they never believed that a woman could have such an aura.
They have never seen such a coach.
Shen Qingjue turned around, turned his head and smiled slantingly at Guanwutai.Under everyone's gaze, Shen Qingjue smiled at her without warning, making Xie Bingyuan blush instantly.
Lian Guanzi's face was a little dark, but he still applauded generously.
Xiao Tailiang laughed out loud.
"Qing Jue, why are you joining in the fun with the juniors? It's considered bullying. Young Master Lian is amazing, reward!"
Shen Jing's mood was very complicated as he watched the limelight being taken away by his sister alone.He originally wanted to lose Shen Qingjue's face, but he did not expect to be self-defeating, and sent her a wave of soldiers from the Imperial Forest Army.
"It's my fault." Shen Qingjue talked and laughed freely, rode his horse leisurely, and returned to the martial arts platform.The Imperial Forest Army was terrified. If the generals faced off and the major general was shot off his horse by the enemy general, what would they do?Just surrender directly?
Then the Imperial Forest Army breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the general is my General Mu Guo.
The author has something to say: ah...
Shen Huahua: Who told me to end?
happy birthday little angel
Thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence to complain about jj!Madam, I am pleased with you!Please don't lock it
Shh~~~ Come to the group, come to the group~ Shh, enter the village quietly

"Okay, I'll go and have a look." Aside from anything else, she was also curious about life in the army, and if given the chance, she would never give up to a woman.
Shen Qingjue used to have long hair loose behind her back, and today she was going to the military camp, Shi Ling tied her long hair together, making her look more capable and energetic.
The tall figure is wearing the jade white python robe, exuding a dignified aura of calmness and self-prestige, and after putting on the dark blue cloak, even the ten spirits who are often seen shine brightly.
Shi Ling followed the two of them, always feeling that she was superfluous, since Xie Bingyuan had only lived in for a short time, and when she stood with the Princess, there would always be a sense of eternity.
The army was stationed in the northern suburbs of Taijing City, guarding the intersection from Taijing City to Manwuzhou.In the past when there was no war, there was no need for so many troops to garrison, but now the situation in Mu country and surrounding countries is tense, so the number of troops stationed around Taijing City is very large.
For example, there are many soldiers in this place, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the battalion is three hundred miles away.
The two set off earlier, and the carriage also drove very quickly. With the guards leading the way, it can be said that the journey was unimpeded.
Immediately arrived at the north outer city gate of Taijing City, Xie Bingyuan signaled the coachman to stop, Shen Qingjue didn't know why, so he followed Xie Bingyuan out of the carriage.
There is a Town God's Temple here. Taoism regards the Town God as the god of "cutting away evil and eliminating evil, protecting the country and protecting the country". It is said that it can respond to people's requests, rain in droughts, and look out in floods to protect the grain and the people.
Therefore, the incense is constantly burning, and there is an endless stream of people who come here throughout the year.It's cold in winter, and finally there are no crowds of pedestrians in spring and summer, so it has the desolate look that Taoism should have.
There was an old tree in front of the door, with a red string hanging from it. Shen Qingjue never believed in these things, but he also knew that a red string represented a wronged person who prayed. She was just about to tie a red string up when Xie Bingyuan pulled her The sleeves came under the back corner of the Chenghuang Temple.
There is a small stall here, a few wooden sticks are propped up to support a few pieces of cloth to make a shed, an old lady is stirring in a steaming cauldron with a big spoon, and there is a young girl next to her, it looks quite lively.
Seeing that there were still vacant seats, Xie Bingyuan pulled Shen Qingjue into the shed and sat down.
Seeing the extraordinary demeanor of the two, the young girl hurried over to greet them with a blushing face, poured water for them with a teapot in her hand, and rubbed the table vigorously with the rag on her shoulder.
"Two bowls of wontons."
"good"
The two of them were outstanding in appearance, and their clothes were out of tune with the surroundings. While eating, several diners secretly looked at the two people who were sitting upright.
"I saw that you didn't eat much in the morning, so I brought you here." Xie Bingyuan paused, "Of course, if you don't want to, we can leave now."
"In the eyes of Boss Xie, I can't eat the fireworks of the world?" Shen Qingjue was in a good mood when he heard this, but he deliberately opened his mouth with a sense of grievance.
Xie Bingyuan stared at her without speaking.
"Thanks to Yuanyuan remembering me, I'm really hungry now." Shen Qingjue took a white porcelain spoon from the bamboo tube next to him and handed it to Xie Bingyuan, and then said: "The war in the past has not subsided, I went to Liangzhou Manwu In desolate areas such as Zhouzhou, sometimes I don’t even have enough to eat. Although I am in command of the armed forces, I don’t want to eat alone, so sometimes I only have one meal a day.”
Xie Bingyuan took the spoon and looked at her, her eyes moved slightly.
While talking, two bowls of steaming wontons were served.
The thin skin was boiled until it was crystal clear, and the stuffing inside could be seen. There were a few leaves of tender vegetables floating on the soup. The simple ingredients looked very appetizing, so Shen Qingjue scooped one up and ate it without much thought.
The skin almost melted in the mouth, and there seemed to be many kinds of spices in the stuffing, each flavor was very flavorful, Shen Qingjue would get greasy if he ate too much meat stuffing, but there is no need to consider these issues here.
Shen Qingjue lowered his head to eat, and after a while, the ravioli bottomed out, and Xie Bingyuan also stopped his movements.
"Guest, it's time for me to close the stall." The old woman tied a large cloth on her chest, and it seemed that she was waiting for the two of them to finish eating.
"So, let's go." The two looked at each other, and Shen Qingjue took out a silver coin from his sleeve and put it on the table, before turning around and leaving.
"Huh?" The old woman exclaimed while covering the pot, "I see this girl in white is so transparent, how can there be an unconcealable hostility between her brows?"
The two turned around at the same time and looked back at the old woman who spoke.
"I've been here in Chenghuang Temple for 30 years, and it's the first time I've seen such outstanding figures as you two." The old woman bent her back and smiled.
"It's just that this girl is young, so she should do less bloody things."
Shen Qingjue narrowed his eyes, then raised his hands in a bow, and left with Xie Bingyuan without answering.
She didn't take this to heart, and it was even more impossible for her to change her mind just because of a casual old woman's words. She was afraid of blood and retribution, so what kind of general would she want to be.
It's just that Xie Bingyuan kept frowning slightly, as if thinking.
Today Xiao Tailiang was inspecting the situation of the barracks in name, but in fact he was selecting a group of potential noble children, namely Shen Qingjue’s younger brother Shen Jing. The sudden arrival of Xiao Tailiang and Shen Qingjue secretly excited the whole night, everyone wanted to leave a good image in front of the two of them, maybe it would be their success!
Entering the barracks, there is a smell of iron and blood. Soldiers in armor are everywhere, holding spears or practicing or patrolling. Feel fearless.
The two went straight to the biggest martial arts training ground, Shen Qingjue got off the carriage, officials big and small clasped their fists and saluted: "General Shen!" Shen Qingjue also bowed his hands in return, all officials gathered, only Xiao Tailiang was absent at this moment.
Shen Qingjue raised the curtain again, the officials were curious, Shen Qingjue, please get out of the car, who must this be.Could it be His Majesty who came with the general?
The person who came out was a woman, wearing a black cloak, her appearance and temperament surprised them, Xie Bingyuan was neither humble nor overbearing, Shi Shiran got off the carriage.It seems that no matter in the fire scene, in the interrogation room, or on the stage, it has always looked like this.
There were two or three civil servants who had been disobedient to Shen Qingjue whispering.
"An actor, no matter what his status, is also worthy to be in the barracks."
"It's so casual, it's really indecent."
All the officials sat on the field, most of them still didn't have any idea, but those few stubborn and pedantic people who spoke like this were glanced at by Shen Qingjue, and silently memorized their names.
Xie Bingyuan naturally heard it too. She is proficient in rhythm and her hearing is not so good.
Shen Qingjue took her to sit next to the chair, and Xiao Tailiang arrived shortly after she was seated.
Mu Guo was originally a place where Xiao Tailiang's master and apprentice fought on horseback, so he paid special attention to the younger generation's horse bow and horse martial arts, so this inspection was highly valued by him.
People on the martial arts viewing platform stood up and saluted one after another: "Long live Your Majesty!"
Xiao Tailiang sat in the main seat, with a wave of his sleeves, all the officials were flattened, and Xiao Liyang, who was following her, saw Shen Qingjue and Xie Bingyuan, his pretty face immediately brightened.
Shen Qingjue winked at her, Xiao Liyang immediately understood.
"Master!" Her voice was not loud enough, but it could be heard in the quiet martial field.
When did the princess have a master?Everyone followed the prestige and saw Xiao Liyang took two steps and bowed to Xie Bingyuan.
The faces of the previous civil servants were ashamed and annoyed. This status was no less than a direct slap in the face.
The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, even the prime minister, did not let Princess Yuyang call her master.
And this woman with the same appearance, why can she be so calm... Accept it with equanimity?
The corners of Shen Qingjue's lips twitched, and he glanced at the minister, his eyes were full of sarcasm.
The Royal Forest Army escorted the encirclement, and all the princes and nobles were on the spot. After the sound of the drums was heard, all the masters in the army were eager to try.
Shen Qingjue sat next to Xiao Tailiang's right hand one step lower, she crossed her legs and held tea in her right hand, and looked at the crowd of young people in the audience with raised eyebrows.
She seemed to have forgotten that she was a young man now, too.
Noble, domineering, and cold, all kinds of feelings blended in her, indescribably natural.She took a sip of tea casually, and her aura was as good as that of Xiao Tailiang who was wearing a dragon robe.
With an order, the fighting in the arena began.The young athletes in military uniform lined up, bowed their bows and set up arrows, and shot at the target standing a hundred meters away. The arrows flew wildly for a while, and many people hit the target, which attracted applause from inside and outside the stadium.
Shen Qingjue frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied, his right finger rubbed against the edge of the teacup unintentionally, and the green finger was faintly green.
After archery, two teams of cavalry go out on horseback. They charge face to face, kicking their horseshoes. After meeting, both sides shoot their spears and shake their spears.
Lian Xiao was at the end of the team, soloing five or six young generals in robes. He was wearing black armor and stood in the center of the field with a long spear. No one dared to continue to challenge him for a while.
"Okay!" A group of people behind him applauded in unison, Xiao Tailiang also clapped his hands and laughed loudly when he saw this scene, and shouted: "Okay!"
Among the younger generation, apart from Shen Jing who didn't play, Lian Xiao is probably the best among them.
The official son of the prime minister also stroked his long beard on his face, and seemed very satisfied with his only son's performance.
Shen Qingjue looked at Lian Xiao's marksmanship, and secretly sighed in his heart, this marksmanship can be said to be the best of the younger generation.
Just as she was about to praise, she heard a few applause in her ears.
Xie Bingyuan looked at the audience and smiled, and applauded gently.
Shen Qingjue frowned, stared at her with some dissatisfaction, and seemed to say again: "Why are you applauding!"
Xie Bingyuan said: "I think this young master is skilled in marksmanship, he looks like a famous general."
Shen Qingjue: "The skills are at the peak but the aura is lacking, and it's three points short of chilling taste."
After speaking, Lord General put down the teacup and pursed his lips.
Seeing her appearance, Xie Bingyuan couldn't help laughing: "I haven't seen the smell of killing."
Shen Qingjue: "Oh"
The field is not Shen Qingjue's garrison, but the imperial forest army directly under Xiao Tailiang. The prime minister often inspects the barracks here, and Lian Xiao performs very well in it. In addition, they are all seven-foot men. The seal of the general on the palm of the boa robe is dissatisfied.
Shen Jing was on the edge of the field, and took the lead in shouting: "General, please end!"
Shen Qingjue narrowed his eyes, and he had already heard his younger brother's voice.
One word awakened the dreamer, and the guards immediately responded.
"General, please step down!"
"General, please step down!"
They seemed to have forgotten the rumors about Shen Qingjue's mediocre martial arts before.Shen Qingjue squinted at her good brother, it would really embarrass her.If she bets and loses, how much face will she have to lead the three armies?If she doesn't go down, how can she be worthy of her Kyushu garrison?
The shouts became louder and louder, Xie Bingyuan looked at the unclothed person beside her, wondering what she was thinking.
"General, please step down!"
Shen Qingjue suddenly raised his head, picked off the jasper on his right finger, and put it on the round table in front of him with a snap.
She got up and took two steps, overlooking the group of princes and marquises in the middle of the field.
"Okay!" The Imperial Forest Army applauded in unison. In their eyes, if the general dared to act like this, he should be praised.
Shen Qingjue wore a jade-white python robe, and walked down the martial arts platform step by step while everyone was watching, the whole process was completely silent.
Shi Ling brought a white horse with a silver saddle, Shen Qingjue got on the horse, and casually drew a silver pear blossom gun from the weapon clip beside it.
She has never used a gun in front of people, because she only knows one move, and she learned it from a famous general in the Northern Wei Dynasty in her previous life.
So she is not sure, but as the coach, after raising the gun and mounting the horse, is there any way back?
Without delay, Shen Qingjue shot the horse's back with a gun, and the horse and she rushed to the field with a murderous look and laughed.
Even looking at her appearance with a smile, he already knew that she couldn't shoot, but he was also excited by Shen Qingjue's menacing approach.He is the only son of the prime minister of this dynasty, a master of the younger generation of the Imperial Forest Army, would he be afraid of a female general who has never used a gun?
Lian Xiao was ready to take her off the horse with one shot.
With a flick of his spear, he picked out a very beautiful spear with a flickering cold light.Behind him, the Imperial Forest Army applauded together.
The two riders soon met.
With a long smile and a whistling gun, he shot at Shen Qingjue head-on, as if a single shot was going to knock her off the horse.
And the man in the white python robe in front of him turned around, his spear and spear angled strangely, and fired a thunderous shot from bottom to top.
With a flash of red tassels, the long spear struck out quickly at a strange angle, directly hitting the heavy armor on Lian Xiao's chest. The heavy armor instantly cracked several lines, and Lian Xiao was directly dismounted by the gun.
Shen Qingjue reined in the reins, thrust the spear and spear into the ground, and the white horse carried her leisurely for a few steps, as if coming to enjoy the flowers.
"Okay!" Standing on the martial arts viewing platform, Her Royal Highness the Princess shouted loudly first.
Then the Imperial Forest Army also applauded in unison, Shen Qingjue's performance just now had completely shocked them, they never believed that a woman could have such an aura.
They have never seen such a coach.
Shen Qingjue turned around, turned his head and smiled slantingly at Guanwutai.Under everyone's gaze, Shen Qingjue smiled at her without warning, making Xie Bingyuan blush instantly.
Lian Guanzi's face was a little dark, but he still applauded generously.
Xiao Tailiang laughed out loud.
"Qing Jue, why are you joining in the fun with the juniors? It's considered bullying. Young Master Lian is amazing, reward!"
Shen Jing's mood was very complicated as he watched the limelight being taken away by his sister alone.He originally wanted to lose Shen Qingjue's face, but he did not expect to be self-defeating, and sent her a wave of soldiers from the Imperial Forest Army.
"It's my fault." Shen Qingjue talked and laughed freely, rode his horse leisurely, and returned to the martial arts platform.The Imperial Forest Army was terrified. If the generals faced off and the major general was shot off his horse by the enemy general, what would they do?Just surrender directly?
Then the Imperial Forest Army breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the general is my General Mu Guo.
The author has something to say: ah...
