The Guozijian is scheduled to reopen in June, and Du Ruo of the court is making final preparations with the young officials. As for the location of the Guozijian, in order to save money and time, it has been renovated on the basis of the abandoned state school in the previous dynasty. , the Ministry of Industry has been watching closely for several months, and the repairs are almost complete.

In mid-April, the imperial court received a report from the military near Chizhou that Xu Zishen might go to war in another month, so he urgently summoned Shen Ci to return to Beijing as soon as possible.

Counting back and forth, Shen Ci stayed in Cangzhou for two full months. After receiving the imperial decree, he handed over some affairs with Cangzhou at the end of April and prepared to return to Beijing.

During the past two months when he was recuperating, Shen Ci spent almost every day fighting around the front line with the Cangzhou Army. He cooperated very well with Pei Yuankai's battle plan and never made his own claims. The Cangzhou Army was also very close to him. It's a pity that he wants to return to Beijing.

As for Pei Yuankai and Pei Yunqing, they never found him again, and they seemed to have tacitly agreed on that matter.

Therefore, in the following time, Shen Ci's life in Cangzhou can be described as calm and peaceful. He led the [-] battalion to conduct actual combat exercises wholeheartedly, learned from the strengths and circumvented weaknesses in the battle with the Beidi people, improved tactics, and stepped up training in the battalion when he was not fighting. It can be seen that even Pei Yuankai said when they were about to leave that the cavalry of the [-] Battalion should have the demeanor of Tai Zu.

But Shen Ci still had one heart. Based on the experience of his previous life, he had an intuition that the Pei family would not just let him go, but until they set off, neither Pei Yuankai nor Pei Yunqing came to look for him again, and they still looked as usual when they practiced.

As it turned out, the [-] Battalion hadn't left for an hour, but when they were still in the border of Cangzhou, they saw a man galloping over on a fast horse, caught up with them, bowed to Shen Ci, and handed over a message: " The villain is Eldest Young Master's personal soldier, Eldest Young Master has some words to bring to General Shen, and they are all in the letter."

Shen Ci's eyes were as cold as ice. He took the letter and quickly glanced at it. When he looked at the soldier again, his eyes were filled with murderous intent. He crumpled the letter and threw it on the ground. Go forward and wait for me in Zhongzhou."

After saying that, he pulled the rein and turned the horse's head, ignoring Qiu Ming's call, whipped the horse and galloped towards the direction they came from.

The personal soldier also followed without saying a word, leaving thousands of soldiers in a daze at a loss.

Zhao Ke didn't expect that something would happen even if he was going back to Beijing. He looked helpless, but worried, and came forward and asked, "What's going on?"

Qiu Ming jumped off the horse to pick up the ball of paper thrown away by Shen Ci, unfolded it to take a look, and said angrily: "Why are the Pei family so shameless! They took away General Shen's master and wife, General Shen should go to Pei's house up."

"No, you can't let General Shen go alone. What if there is a fight in Pei's house with this appearance?" Zhao Ke was terrified when he thought of Shen Ci's expression when he left. His eyes looked like he was going to beat someone, and he still wanted to go out. The kind of human life, "You send a few people to follow me, and you take the others to Zhongzhou."

Qiu Ming responded and picked out a column of cavalry to turn back with Zhao Ke.

Shen Ci, who was galloping on the horse, felt that he was so angry that his blood was surging, his breathing was a little disordered, and he almost passed out when he was running fast. I was chasing him, but I couldn't catch up.

He guessed that this matter would not end so easily, but he did not expect that the Pei family could not wait so soon. In his previous life, he had been arguing with the Pei family for nearly a year. Being too tough, the Pei family was left in a helpless position earlier than in the previous life, so the Pei family had to seize the time to ease the relationship with the court.

The Pei family saw that he was a monolith, and it was impossible to start with him, so they decided on the idea of ​​his master and wife, and detained him at home presumably to coerce him. This was simply to force him to recognize his ancestors. Zong, even thinking about it is ridiculous.

It only took more than half an hour for Shen Ci to rush to the door of Pei's house when he turned his head. The last time he came to Pei's house was also a matter of his previous life. Calculated according to the time of this life, the last time he came here was when he was 14 years old with Pei Yunjing .

The Pei family is a typical wealthy family, with two majestic stone lions at the door. Shen Ci paused at the bottom of the steps, thinking that his mother might have hugged him and knelt here back then. Sad to despair, with tears rolling down his pale face due to serious illness, the door of Pei's house was always closed, and the guards at the door were indifferent and contemptuous, like looking at two ants in the mud.

Shen Ci's eyes were bloodshot, he quickly pulled out the knife, and stepped up the steps in a few steps. The guards at the door had no time to stop him, so he slammed into the door. Dozens of guards and soldiers came to the mansion instantly. Shen Ci pretended not to see it. He just walked forward with the knife in his hand. He didn't believe that six years later, these people would still dare to cut more than a dozen knife wounds on his body.

Pei Yunqing and Pei Yunjing came out of the mansion together, and when they saw his appearance, they were so frightened that they subconsciously took a step back.

The guards and personal soldiers did not dare to do anything. It is not what it used to be. Shen Ci is now an official from the third rank. He is the emperor's most trusted general. The Pei family is still rushing to recognize him, even though he barged in with the appearance of wanting to kill someone. , who would dare to hurt a single hair of him?

Pei Yunqing waved his hand to signal those people to put away their weapons and retreat, and said kindly: "General Shen, if you have something to say, don't be rude."

"Where is my master and wife?" Shen Ci took two steps forward with the knife in hand, "I don't want to do anything either, so don't force me."

Pei Yunqing raised his hand and made a comforting gesture, and said: "Don't worry, General Shen, your master and wife are fine, we will definitely not do anything to them, it is only because General Shen does not want to talk to us that we made this decision."

"I don't want to listen to nonsense." Shen Ci stepped forward and pushed him away, glanced at the layout of the mansion, and saw that Pei Yuankai's room should be at the back, so he walked along the corridor, and he didn't care if someone tried to stop him on the way, just cared about himself Walking over, he yelled angrily, "Get out!"

More and more people gathered over, not sure whether to stop, Pei Yunjing calmly said from behind: "Take him to see father, put away all the knives."

Shen Ci glanced back at Pei Yunjing, put the knife back into its sheath, and followed those people to Pei Yuankai's house. Before the guards could report at the door, he kicked open the door and stared at Pei Yuankai coldly , said: "Where is my master and wife?"

There were a few old men in the room, who looked like elders in the clan, but Shen Ci didn't know him, and he wasn't interested in meeting them, so he just stared at Pei Yuankai.

"They are very nice, and the Pei family treats them as superiors." Pei Yuankai also had a pleasant face today, and even smiled, but Shen Ci looked disgusting, and he had no anger at Shen Ci's rough intrusion, " Should we sit down and talk about something?" Seeing that Shen Ci didn't respond, he pointed to a few people in the room, "Xiao Ci, these are all prestigious elders in the clan, and they also want to see you very much."

Shen Ci resisted the feeling of nausea and vomiting. He clenched his right hand into a fist and didn't think about drawing the knife. His knuckles creaked and the anger in his eyes became more intense. He gritted his teeth and said, "I'll say it again, where is my master and wife?"

"Since you are worried, I'll go and invite them here now." Pei Yuankai winked at a guard outside the door, "Is this all right?"

"Don't bother me, I'll go by myself." Shen Ci followed the guard, and said as he walked, "I am in a hurry to return to Beijing, so I won't bother you at Zongbing Pei's mansion, so I leave."

As soon as he said this, dozens of guards outside the door came up and blocked his way one after another. He turned his head to look at Pei Yuankai, and said with a sneer, "Pei Zongbing, is this interesting?"

Pei Yuankai seemed very patient, and said calmly behind him: "I was afraid that Dai Xu would take advantage of me and do something wrong to your mother. It was my fault. Your mother is no longer alive, and I can't help it. Make up for it, but you can give her the glory behind her. When you enter the family tree of the Pei family, you will raise your mother as a second wife. There is an order from the court to repair your mother's tomb again. You can ask for anything else, and I will do it. Can be satisfied. Your adoptive father and adoptive mother, our Pei family will also treat them kindly, and protect them for the rest of their lives. Your master used to be the Cangzhou Army, and I can give him a promotion. You buy a new house in Nangu or Lezhou."

Shen Ci's breathing was trembling with extreme anger. It turns out that people can be so shameless that they feel that they can write off all the crimes of more than [-] years when they admit their mistakes lightly, and they still look superior and feel that this is giving Their gifts, he closed his eyes and calmed down for a long time before he could speak, his voice hoarse: "My mother was still a lowly family when she was buried, she was not worthy of the lintel of your Pei family, and she couldn't afford such a gift from the Pei family, Mr. Pei Needless to say."

"General Shen, the Pei family is really sorry for you, but you are still young, and you should have a better status and status in the court, which can help you a lot." An elder of the clan walked forward with a cane, sighing He said, "Young man, don't show off your temper for a while, after all, the blood of the Pei family is flowing on your body, and the blood relationship can't be lost no matter what."

"That's right." The other person also said, "The whole family is still connected to each other even if their bones are broken, not to mention that he is your biological father, no matter how much you have resentment, you are still his son, and it is right to recognize your ancestors and return to your clan."

Shen Ci finally looked back at them, his eyes were red, making the old men stagger a step in shock.

"I said that I don't hate your Pei family, but do you know what I hate the most in my life?" Shen Ci suddenly drew out his knife, everyone was startled, but he drew the tip of the knife on his wrist , the bright red blood dripped on the ground, shocking, "What I hate the most is that I bleed your Pei family's blood, it makes me sick so much, I wish I could drain all the blood from my whole body, and have nothing to do with you." Everyone in the room was stunned, staring blankly at the blood on the ground, he said coldly, "Do you understand now? Are you still going to recognize me?"

"Also, if you don't let people go today, it doesn't matter who the knife will be cut on." Shen Ci turned around and looked up at the group of people around him, who was ready to fight at any time. "Six years ago, I dared to do something at your house. Do you think I dare to do it six years later?"

Pei Yuankai closed his eyes, Shen Ci was more ruthless than he thought, and he likes to do things to the extreme, such a person is actually not suitable to stay in the court.

"Yunjing, take General Shen to find his master and wife." Pei Yuankai sighed softly, "Let someone bandage the wound on General Shen's hand."

Pei Yunjing responded, and Shen Ci said to everyone in the room: "Don't worry, I will never come back to look for you when I go out today, and I will never enter the door of Pei's house for the third time in my life. I hope you Also be sensible, don't come looking for me again, and my master and wife, go as far as you can."

This time, no one stopped him anymore, and the look in his eyes became even more fearful. On the way, Pei Yunjing threw him a medicine bottle and said, "I guess you don't want to stay here any longer, just deal with the wound yourself."

"I have..." Shen Ci wanted to return the medicine bottle to Pei Yunjing, but met his gloomy expression and put it away again, so as not to hear the person say that there was no reason to take back the things he sent, "Thank you."

Pei Yunjing took him to a room, motioned the guards at the door to go with him, said nothing, Shen Ci opened the door and went in, seeing that Shen Che and Ye Xinmei were fine, there was still tea in the room There was food to eat, he breathed a sigh of relief, stopped Ye Xinmei from pulling his bleeding hand to make a long speech, didn't want to stay at Pei's house for a moment, and said, "Go out first."

After leaving the gate of Pei's house, Zhao Ke and a row of cavalry were waiting at the door, seeing that Shen Ci had come out in full, the Pei's house seemed to be quiet, so he calmed down and said, "General Shen, why don't you send him back first?" Nangu, His Majesty must understand..."

"No, the imperial court has issued an edict, what if I don't go back and return to my command, but run home instead?" Shen Ci ordered two cavalrymen to find a carriage in the city, "I'll send someone to take master and wife back."

"I'm sorry for worrying Master and Mistress." Shen Ci walked in front of Shen Che and Ye Xinmei, bowed his head and said, "Chaozhong is waiting for me to go back to prepare the army for the war, so I can't send you home, I'm sorry."

"What's the matter, why don't we know the way?" Ye Xinmei hurriedly said, "As long as you are fine, remember to take medicine for the wound on your hand and take care of yourself."

They walked far away from the Pei family, and Shen Ci's expression was still not good-looking. Shen Che looked back in the direction of the Pei family, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Xiao Ci, the Pei family also told us about our interests. ...You can promise them, your teacher's wife and I have told you who is your father and who is your mother since we were young, and we have never said that we disagree with your acknowledgment of your ancestors. We only hope that you are all right, don't have any burdens, do Do whatever you want."

Ye Xinmei patted Shen Ci's hand, and said softly: "My wife also means the same thing, the Pei family is right, no matter how bastard Pei Yuankai is, he is your biological father, and now you are an official in Beijing, if you have that idea, It is also a good thing to go back to Pei's house. Besides, your mother... After all, only the Pei family can give her a title and honor after death. "

"Master and wife, you are not allowed to say that in the future." Shen Ci frowned fiercely, "I made it very clear to the Pei family, I don't want to have anything to do with them in this life, and I won't enter their house again If I go back to Pei's house now, I will really be sorry for my mother, she definitely doesn't need such honor. I have never regarded Pei Yuankai as my father for so many years..." Shen Ci rolled his Adam's apple, and said in a harsh voice, "I only know my surname Shen, I am your son."

Ye Xinmei looked open-minded in front of her, but now her tears kept falling, and she cried and said: "I was talking nonsense before, so I am reluctant to return you to the Pei family. Such a good son can only be How can I, Ye Xinmei, take advantage of that bastard Pei Yuankai?"

Shen Ci's eyes were slightly red, and he nodded with a smile. Shen Che also patted him on the shoulder with moist eyes, then hurriedly went to coax Ye Xinmei, and led them into the carriage.

"Xiaoci," Ye Xinmei poked her head out of the carriage and instructed, "Let Qingzhu remember to come to my house in July to celebrate his birthday, and ask him if there is anything he wants to eat, and I will make it for him then. Have you finished the peach cake you brought back last time? Is the mung bean cake delicious? This time you are not here, let him be careful on the road and bring more people to protect him. Also, it is hot in July, ask him if he can eat it Eat hawthorn? I will make him some hawthorn jelly and take it home for an appetizer."

There was a buzzing in Shen Ci's head, remembering the previous sentence, and Ye Xinmei spoke a long series of words without pausing, and couldn't help counting on her fingers how many things she wanted to ask.

Ye Xinmei glared at him and asked, "Do you remember?"

"Remember, remember." Shen Ci confirmed that he should not be left behind, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely bring the words to you."

Ye Xinmei sat back in satisfaction, waved her hand and said, "Okay, it's okay, we're leaving, you should go too quickly."

Shen Ci: "..."

She was holding his hand and crying just now, why did she dislike him in a blink of an eye?

The author has something to say: Mrs. Xie: Hee hee, Xiao Xie is coming to our house soon

Xiao Shen: Love just disappeared

I often suspect that my readers are robots because I can't see them, crying
