"The cook went shopping early in the morning and cooked a table of dishes." Feng Shaojun cleared his throat and said, "Let's come over for lunch today at noon!"
Shen Jia was not polite at all: "Okay!" He held his daughter in one hand and picked up his son in the other.
Lei Xiaoxue also had a cheerful and neat temper, and nodded along with a smile.
Shen Jia and Shen You have been inseparable since childhood and grew up together. They are closer than brothers. When Shen You came to the border army, Shen Jia followed him without saying a word. Is it really for fame and wealth? Isn't it just to cheer up his brothers? .
Even if you come here, you don't care what you say. It's comfortable to get along with each other like this.
As soon as I left the house, the door of the house next door opened, and a pockmarked face poked out: "Is there anything to drink?"
Shen Jia smiled and said: "You have the nerve to talk about drinking. Whoever drank a few drinks last night was like a dead dog and couldn't get up. It was embarrassing for us."
"That's because I was too tired from traveling thousands of miles and made a mistake." Fang Peng didn't blush at all and came over with a smile: "You can take a look at me today."
After saying that, he shouted into the house: "Dalang, Erlang, and Sanlang, they are all coming out! Let's go to Fourth Uncle Shen's house for a delicious meal today."
The three Fang Dalang brothers ran out one after another. This formation was really eye-catching.
Shen You couldn't help but glance at Feng Shaojun.
How could Feng Shaojun not guess what he was thinking, and couldn't help but smile. When she gave birth to Brother Xu, she was in excruciating pain, and she took a long vacation for a year. She made up her mind to give birth to one.
Now, the scar has healed and the pain has been forgotten. After arriving at the border, life has become more leisurely. Not to mention Shen You, she herself has been thinking about it...
Mrs. Li chased the three naughty boys out and looked at Fang Peng angrily: "We are a family of five! It would be too much trouble to go like this."
Feng Shaojun immediately smiled and said: "It's so crowded and lively. I originally planned to invite your family over, but you came out in time, which saved me from running errands."
Mrs. Li smiled sheepishly and did not refuse.
Since they are all members of the family, there is no need to be rigid and there are no separate seats. Everyone sat around the round table. Feng Shaojun only took care of Brother Xu, Sister Miao was obedient and obedient, so don't worry, and Lei Xiaoxue only took care of Brother Yu. Only Mrs. Li, after glaring at the naughty Dalang, scolding the lively Erlang, and then coaxing the aggrieved and noisy Sanlang.
Feng Shaojun smiled at Lei Xiaoxue in a low voice: "If there is another child in the future, I will have to give birth to a daughter."
Lei Xiaoxue was secretly happy.
I never thought that Mr. Li's ears were so sensitive that he actually heard it. He took some time out of his busy schedule and smiled at Feng Shaojun: "Isn't that true? Don't be like me. The bastard gave birth to one child after another and gave me a headache every day. Think about it in the future. I have to find wives for the three of them, and I’m so worried that I can’t eat well or sleep.”
Feng Shaojun and Lei Xiaoxue burst into laughter.
On this side, Shen You, Shen Jia, Fang Peng and the others were bragging while drinking. Shen Jia, in particular, was frothing at the mouth when he boasted about last night's banquet: "Last night's banquet, I knew at a glance that Prince Zhao and the others had bad intentions. , it was really shameless to take turns drinking wine from my fourth brother. Fortunately, I stopped him with my strength."
Fang Peng glanced at him sideways: "You really have a lot to say. Before I got drunk, I saw you swaying."
How could Shen Jia admit it? He and Fang Peng were bragging back and forth. Shen You listened and smiled knowingly from time to time.
Needless to say, he himself felt the changes in himself. From the moment he entered the border town, he felt as if he had left behind a huge burden and felt indescribably light and comfortable.
"Drink less today," Shen You said with a smile, "Although General Meng has allowed us to rest and reorganize for a few days, we cannot be too indulgent. After lunch, we will gather everyone together to discuss how to train our troops in the future."
Too much wine will make things worse. Shen Jia and Fang Peng nodded in agreement, drank half the pot and put down their cups.
After lunch, the men went to discuss business.
The women were not idle, either taking care of their children or instructing the maids and servants to make arrangements.
…
At this time, Prince Zhao and Zhu Yang Dinglang entered the border army camp.
The three princes and princes of Zhao came to the border on the emperor's order. The apparent reason was to inspect the border troops on behalf of the emperor.
General Meng did not dare to neglect at all, and accompanied Prince Zhao and his party around the military camp for a long time. Prince Zhao did not understand military affairs at all, but he still pretended to be an expert, asked questions, and made arrogant comments. Posture.
Thanks to General Meng's good temper, he was not annoyed at all and kept company with a smile.
The soldiers behind General Meng were all angry, and one or two had signs on their faces and turned their heads to the side.
In the evening, Prince Zhao actually offered to stay in the military camp for one night. General Meng had no choice but to give up his middle tent. Prince Zhao did not give in at all, and moved into the middle tent with great arrogance.
Zhu Yang and Ding Lang also moved in.
"Should we send an order now to ask them to come over?" Zhu Yang asked impatiently in a low voice.
Prince Zhao specially came to the military camp today. Firstly, he was pretending to run an errand. Secondly, it was for selfish reasons. The "them" in Zhu Yang's mouth were exactly the "own people" mentioned by Prince Zhao.
Prince Zhao's small eyes flashed, and he sneered: "When it gets dark, I can secretly send a message to them to come over."
When it got dark, General Meng sent six dishes. In the army, such a dinner was already a very sumptuous meal.
Prince Zhao still disliked it so much that he took a few bites and put down his chopsticks.
An hour later, three black figures quietly entered the military tent.
One of them has a dark complexion and is very strong. The other is tall and strong with a fierce face. The last one has a long and thin face and looks a bit gloomy.
These three people all secretly had close contacts with King Zhao. When they met the Crown Prince of Zhao, the three of them were respectful and saluted together with clasped fists: "I will finally meet the Crown Prince of Zhao."
"Everyone, get up!" Prince Zhao glanced at the slender man. Among the three people, the one named Zhao had the highest official position, being a fourth-grade general. Moreover, he happened to be transferred to Xinjian Cavalry camp soon.
"General Zhao, Lieutenant Cui, and Chief Bing Ma," Prince Zhao said sadly, "I have called you here because there is an important matter."
General Zhao Shen responded in a low voice: "Please give me your instructions, Your Majesty."
Prince Zhao lowered his voice and explained.
General Zhao Shen and the other three looked at each other in shock and thought in their hearts.
They have all heard about the grudges between Prince Zhao and Shen You. Now Shen You has been promoted to the second rank of a mighty general, and was ordered by the emperor to come to the border army to command the cavalry battalion. He is the immediate boss of General Zhao.
Prince Zhao asked them to go into the muddy water and attack General Shen secretly... If this happened, Prince Zhao would have left long ago. They were all staying in the border army, so they could hide wherever they could. go?
