At the end of summer, the sky is long and the dawn is early. After Fu Lang had a good meal last night, Fu Lang was so sleepy that he was picked up from the bed by Chi Yu and sat up straight. Only then did he find that the quilt rolled in his arms was empty. Se was gone long ago.She was stunned for a while, then threw away the bedroll, rubbed her eyes, Chiyu handed her the clothes while complaining: "I should serve the young master, but what is it to serve you?"

Fu Lang closed his eyes and smiled innocently, "Then you have to get used to it, I slept on this bed—"

Sure enough, her arrogance could not be suppressed for three days, Chi Yu smiled and slapped the hot towel on her face: "Aren't you silly? Pack up soon and have breakfast, and you have to hurry back to Pingyang."

Fu Lang felt sweet in his heart, "Chiyu, where's Pei Se?"

Chi Yu said: "Little General Lin is here, Young Master is drinking tea with her below."

Fu Lang wondered which little general this little general Lin was, and at the same time got angry that Pei Se had left early in the morning, and at the same time wiped his face and pushed the door open.Just after going down a few steps, there was a burst of hearty laughter downstairs, and then he suffocated his laughter and said, "Is he really scared like that?" The voice was a strange woman, and her voice was full of joy and youth.

Pei Se replied "Yes", and the woman laughed again: "This Jiang Xian, I remembered, I've heard of him. In the past, in Shencheng, he was a kid who was beaten by the patriarch every day. Now he's grown up." After being kicked to Yanling, why are you still beating me like this? I'm so stunned!"

Fu Lang had already walked downstairs, and saw clearly a round table downstairs, Pei Se was sitting with his back to himself, beside her was Gong Xiting, and opposite was a young girl who was unfamiliar, picking some side dishes from the plate in front of Pei Se .I don't know if it's because of the battle armor, but she has a slender figure who is used to holding knives and guns. She looks a little taller than Pei Se, her skin is tanned golden, and she smiles brightly like a sunflower.She took a bite, looked up and saw Fu Lang coming down, and asked Pei Se: "Is this Miss Fu?"

Pei Se turned her head and saw her, so she patted the seat beside her and said, "Come down."

It turned out that she had reserved a seat for herself, so Fu Lang felt happy, jumped down a few steps and sat down, and honestly greeted the girl opposite: "You are General Lin? Hello, General Lin."

Pei Se handed her the chopsticks: "What are you talking about, don't you know General Lin? This is General Lin's daughter, you call her Sister Lin Yun."

Fu Lang took a bite, "Sister Lin Yun? Are you much older than Pei Se?"

Lin Yun had never heard of anyone daring to call Pei Se by his name so carelessly, and was a little surprised for a while, "Me? I'm still a year younger than her."

Fu Lang said: "Are you the same age as me? Then what kind of elder sister? Pei Se, you are so good at making things up."

Pei Se was stunned, "I never asked, I always thought you were much younger than me."

Fu Lang made a gesture of invitation: "Okay, you are the biggest, please eat."

Pei Se patted the back of her head with a smile, and Fu Lang said in a muffled voice, "It hurts." Pei Se remembered that she had bumped her head the night before, and when she remembered what it was, she felt a little uncomfortable again.

Lin Yun saw that Pei Se, who had always been sultry, was blushing a little, and couldn't control himself any longer, and knocked on the table with his chopsticks, "Pei Se, you can do it, just accept it! I'll chase after you all night Did you come here just to see this?"

For the past few months, Lin Yun has been conscripting with the veteran general of the imperial court, and was just outside Pingwang City, when he heard that Pei Se was in the city, he rushed over overnight.Pei Se smiled, "I see, tell me."

Lin Yun said: "I heard that there is a general in the academy?"

Lin Yun has been in the military camp all year round, and he has never paid much attention to those things in the court.But a general popped up out of nowhere to divide the troops with her, she wanted to ask about that.

The new general who appeared was Jin Shen whom he had met in Anqi Building before. Although he was a distant relative of Prime Minister Jin, this man was single-handedly promoted by Da Sima.Jin Shen has been in the academy for many years, but he didn't make much achievements in literary name, but he poured out some strange ideas in military strategy.A few days ago, there was a war on the Qiyue border in the south, and Changyu sent General Qi to lead the troops to rescue them. Jin Shen followed the army led by General Qi to the south, and was promoted to this position because of his military achievements.

Pei Se pondered and nodded: "Da Sima told me that many veterans are unable to do what they want now, and they always have to bring in new people to take over."

Lin Yun snorted, disdainful of Jin Shen, "You don't care about Da Sima's promotion of such a person."

Pei Se said: "This man has been a doorman, and he is indeed a bit too involved in political affairs. He is not an ordinary general."

Lin Yun said: "You know that too? Then do you know that he divided Shencheng's [-] food and grass when he first established the team?"

Pei Se frowned, but said nothing.Gong Xiting, who was eating quietly, wiped his mouth and said, "My lord, I am judging the situation. Is this Jin Shen embezzling General Lin's military power?"

Lin Yun said: "It's not like Kuitun, he's just a newcomer..."

Pei Se glanced at Gong Xiting, "Miss Gong Xi, I would like to hear more about it."

Gong Xiting said leisurely: "Jin Shen is certainly a rookie, but in the past two years, there have been a lot of people who have been held by the Great Sima. No one has ever touched a general like General Lin. Others can't, but he can , Isn’t this strange? After all, it’s because this person is not an ordinary young general. Jin Shen Jinshen, no matter how far he is from Prime Minister Jin in the genealogy, his surname is Jin.”

Lin Yun came to his senses and thought about it for a while. General Lin has been away for many years, but his fame is in the court. There are indeed not many people who dare to touch him.Pei Se naturally understood the key points better than her. Although she didn't know whether she was helpless or indifferent, I was afraid that she might be plotted.She didn't say anything, but Pei Se sat up straight and asked, "Miss Gongxi means that Prime Minister Jin is trying to move General Lin, isn't it?"

Fu Lang felt like listening to a series of charades, and asked dully: "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Pei Se couldn't help laughing, and was about to speak, but Gong Xiting continued, "You don't need to understand. My lord, what I mean is that Qi State has a vast territory, except for Yanling and Shencheng in the north. The four corners are easy to separatist regimes. More than ten years ago when the barbarians took over, there were aristocratic troops guarding the northeast; on the northwest corner was the state of Chu, and several marquises were the most dignified; The Yue family and the Wu family have left. Right now, when the three sons return to the court, it is time for the aristocratic family to stand up and seek to open up the world for the second time. But the Jin family is the most stable, as immobile as a mountain. Young master, to move is ambition, and to not move is the way of tigers and wolves. Heart."

Her voice is immature, but she has a kind of coldness and determination.These are all folk rhetoric, some of which are not very accurate, but she solemnly dissected them one by one, and there are two or three new ideas, the freshest of which is a completely malicious speculation about Prime Minister Jin.

Pei Se watched Fu Lang bow her head to eat, her hair was not tied tightly, and a strand of hair fell out.Pei Se stretched out her hand to tuck the lock of hair back behind Fu Lang's ear, and then asked Gong Xiting, "Stay still is the heart of a tiger and a wolf. You think so? It's very interesting."

Gong Xiting received such praise, but there was still no smile on his face, and he said coldly: "My son has read thousands of books, so he naturally knows about the turmoil a hundred years ago. The royal family of the previous dynasty was in decline, the world was in chaos, and the princes of all parties fought for it. When proclaiming emperor and king, the ancestor of Chaoge, Duke Meng, was just an unknown king of a small country. Duke Meng didn’t do anything, he guarded the barbarians in the north, and didn’t move. Until Duke Ai of the previous dynasty was beaten out of Chaoge, When the conspirators arrived in Xianyang, the countries were in constant turmoil, and the people were devastated. Only then did Menggong go south to leave the feudal state, and set up the emperor in Chaoge, and killed all the heroes with Chaoge's soldiers and horses—no, in the words of the winner, he should be punished. Eliminate thieves, calm the world, and save the people from fire and water. But, son, Duke Meng doesn’t move, but he doesn’t want to be the leader himself. But what those minions are doing is like today’s new general Jin Shen.”

Did she mean that Prime Minister Jin was Duke Meng, or that Chang Yu was Duke Meng?

Pei Se put down the bowl and chopsticks, and while ordering the guards to prepare the car, she got up and said, "Miss Gongxi, Lord Gongxi taught you very well. Although you are young, you are very insightful. When you return to Pingyang, you will Arrange for you to go to the academy. If you study with Master for a few more years, you must be able to make great achievements." She got up and greeted Fu Lang and Lin Yun to go together, and then said: "How did your father teach you? Talk on the way."

It was a sunny day outside the post house. Although it was only early in the morning, the sun was so fierce in late summer and early autumn that it was already hanging in the sky and scorching the earth.Lin Yun was actually very respectful and respectful like Chiyu, he was very polite and let Pei Se get into the car first, but Pei Se stood aside and let Gong Xiting go up first.Fu Lang pursed his lips, took the reins of the horse, and slowly stepped on the saddle to get on the horse. Pei Se's voice came from behind him: "Fu Lang?"

Fu Lang didn't know what kind of flying vinegar he was eating, and thought he was ridiculously naive, but now that he was riding south, he would eat all the jealousy, so he sat down firmly and didn't look back, "What's the matter?"

Pei Se said, "Get down and take the car."

Fu Lang held the reins tightly, "I won't sit! I'll ride a horse!"

Pei Se probably hadn't gotten into the car yet, so she stood aside and asked her, "Is the injury on your hand healed?"

Fu Lang said: "Okay!"

Pei Se said helplessly, "What's the matter, come down quickly."

Fu Lang said: "Don't worry about it."

Pei Se didn't say a word, handed the crutches to the guards and got on the car, really ignoring her.

Laughing voices came from the wall of the car, Dai Wang rode on the horse and yawned, looked back at her, and asked doubtfully, "Miss Fu, are you awake?"

Of course I didn’t wake up, last night I chatted with Pei Se, and there seemed to be endless things to talk about, and I was not sleepy when it was almost dawn. ?Fu Lang mourned from it, "I slept pretty well!"

Dai Wang was very helpless, "Then hurry up and catch up! You're so slow, those who didn't know thought you were eavesdropping on purpose beside the car."

Chiyu couldn't help laughing, Fu Langye glared at her fiercely, and urged his horse to catch up, "Why are you spitting blood, I'm so glorious, am I the kind of person who eavesdrops?"

Dai Wang said: "You didn't eavesdrop, you didn't eavesdrop, how could you eavesdrop because of your heart?" He leaned over from the horse's back and asked her in a low voice: "It's talking about General Lin. ?”

Fu Lang blurted out: "What did you say that General Lin will return to Pingyang next year, but I didn't understand..." Suddenly seeing Dai Wang's mouth twitched, he knew what he meant, and in a fit of rage he threw the whip on his horse's back hard. He slapped hard, "Why are you like this!"

Now even Chiyu laughed out loud, and Dai Wang laughed even more, and hurriedly reined in the horse that was about to jump forward: "Miss Fu, why are you such a thunderous temper!"

Fu Lang hit his horse again anxiously, "Keep your voice down, she should have heard it!"

Hearing the bursts of laughter outside, Pei Se also smiled slightly.Seeing that she didn't listen, Gong Xiting stopped talking.

Originally, Pei Se had a lot of followers, and he was open to speak out, and what he lacked most were strange and weird theories.Lin Yun also knew that she only asked a few more questions because she saw that the child was precocious and insightful. It may not be that what Gong Xiting said was correct.After being silent for a while, Pei Se finally came back to his senses and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Yun said: "I heard people say that you are absent-minded recently, and I just took it as nonsense. What's wrong with you?"

When Pei Se was young in the army, she often bumped into Lin Yun, and she was never defenseless in front of her.The bright summer sunlight came in through the gaps in the window curtains. She closed her eyes, raised her hand and rubbed her sore shoulders from using a cane, and smiled slightly.

The author has something to say:

It’s unrealistic to write about summer in winter. I suspect that my home has installed a fake heater.
