Looking at this large box full of gold and silver treasures, and then looking at Li Changshi's charming face, she looked confused, stunned, and at a loss.
Shen Lie didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment, then he said sincerely: "The chief escort doesn't have to be like this."
But Li Changshi doesn’t think so!
Seeing Shen Lie's firm attitude, he seemed a little unhappy.
My heart sank.
Li Changshi couldn't sit still and hurriedly said softly: "Sir... are you too young?"
The gold and silver treasures in this box are worth tens of thousands of taels. She spent many days raising money in various villages to collect them, but she never expected...
It still doesn't suit Master Shen's wishes.
For a while.
Li Changshi became uneasy and murmured in her heart, this gentleman is really a weirdo. He is obviously a well-behaved young man, but he does not accept women, does not accept money, does not gamble, does not go whoring, and is not good at drinking...
Li Chang felt a little confused. She had never seen such an official before.
At this time, Shen Lie couldn't laugh or cry either.
he thinks……
There is a huge difference in outlook between me and this female escort leader. They are like chickens and ducks. This woman who has been in the world all her life is thinking about how to curry favor with this gentleman.
The atmosphere in the hall was a little awkward.
No choice.
Li Changshi had no choice but to order someone to carry the box down. She peeked at Master Shen's resolute profile with some embarrassment, and rolled her eyes as if she suddenly understood.
Something moved in my heart.
Li Chang had an idea.
Is it possible...
Has he fallen in love with Susu?
The black and white eyes turned again, and Li Changshi had no choice but to say softly: "I understand your Lord's intention. Although Su Su is not my biological child, but... if your Lord is interested in Su Su, you will be the same." It’s a good thing.”
In terms of Mr. Shen's status, he is now very popular in front of you, even though he already has a family.
However, he is not from a prominent family, nor is he from a scholarly family. Lao Li's family is just a small family that runs an escort agency.
For a young lady from an escort agency, even if she were to marry into the Shen Mansion as a concubine, it would not be considered as a disgrace to her family. Even if she were to be a concubine, that would still be a high ranking.
When speaking.
She then tried again: "But I don't know what your Majesty thinks?"
"Why?"
Shen Lie was speechless, and his old face couldn't help but blush slightly.
What a mess!
When did I fall in love with your stepdaughter?
"The chief escort is worrying too much!"
By this time.
Shen Lie was dumbfounded, why couldn't he explain this?
Why don't you listen?
Shen Lie had no choice but to stand up and said a few words of comfort to the pretty widow: "The chief escort is worrying too much. Shen didn't mean it."
Finished speaking.
Shen Lie hurriedly left, leaving Li Changshi and a few maids behind. They looked at each other in the hall and felt a little confused.
at this time.
Li Changshi seemed to realize something again, her fair and charming face turned red, as if she had figured out something again.
He doesn't want this or that.
Li Changshi began to make random guesses in her heart, could this gentleman...
Be interested in her as a widow!
Gritting silver teeth.
Li Chang couldn't help but grasp the plain white sleeves with her delicate hands, and her plump body began to feel hot. Speaking of which, over the years, many powerful people have taken a fancy to her.
But most of them are old men in their fifties or sixties.
those people……
Not to mention coveting her body, of course, at the same time, I also fell in love with the Pingyao Escort Bureau's promising fortune, so that I could gain both personal and financial benefits.
She never expected that Master Shen, at such a young age, would actually like this kind of food. This made Li Chang blush and start thinking wildly in her heart.
But she didn't dare to say it out loud, so she had no choice but to suppress the thought, and stood up despite the feeling of her face getting hot and her heart beating.
"No... I'm determined not to do it."
In Li Changshi's entanglement, unconsciously.
it's dark.
In Datong City, which is under curfew, inexplicable undercurrents are surging in the silence. This night, all the government offices are brightly lit.
A blink of an eye.
Ten days later.
The war begins.
After a border dispute, the entire Ming army in Xuanda, Liaodong, and Miyun suddenly moved into action, tore up the peace agreement between the Ming and the Tatars, and assembled 50,000 cavalry.
Crossing the line of the Great Wall with thunderous momentum.
The cavalry troops arrived at Guihua City in three groups and quickly defeated the Yongxie tribe of the direct lineage of King Shunyi of the Tatars, beheading more than 600 people and capturing more than 30,000 people, livestock, cattle and sheep.
Then he returned in triumph.
King Shunyi was so frightened that he fled Guihua City overnight.
Hold the battle report.
Shen Lie was not happy at all. As he expected, there was no suspense about the victory, but the battle report said so.
The Tatar Yongxie tribe collapsed at the first touch, and the Ming army's cavalry pursued them for three hundred miles. The enemy cavalry fled without a trace, and the Ming army returned victorious.
Looking at the battle report, Shen Lie frowned. It was indeed a familiar smell, just like the countless defeats the Ming Army had fought in those years.
After the highly mobile Yongxie tribe dropped 600 corpses, the main force was actually not lost, and seven or eight thousand cavalry fled deep into the vast prairie.
got used to.
This has been the case for two hundred years.
As Shen Lie put down the battle report, his eyes became dim and a few words escaped from the corner of his mouth: "It's begun."
From this moment on, as the Longqing Peace Agreement was torn up, the Wanli Dynasty began a crazy foreign war that lasted for more than thirty years, a vigorous era.
This taste is really complicated and difficult to understand.
Stand up.
Shen Lie walked to the wall, looked at the simple map hanging on the wall, and looked from the Great Wall to Monan, Mobei, and then to the west toward Jiayuguan.
Turned around again.
I imagined North Korea, Japan, Indochina, Nanyang, and Malacca that were not on the map. Finally, I looked at Shanhaiguan and Liaodong, and my eyes became hot.
At this moment, Shen Lie felt extremely clear in his heart.
"These battles..."
This is the last struggle of this big dynasty.
But a thought.
Uncontrollably, something popped up in Shen Lie's mind: "What if..."
"Here comes someone."
Taking his eyes away from the map, Shen Lie called the guards in and said in a deep voice: "Pack your bags, let's... go back to Beijing."
A sense of urgency arises spontaneously.
Two days later.
On the official road from Datong to the capital, pedestrians, carriages and horse teams were all in a hurry. After a great victory, the trade road became much more depressed.
Shen Lie rode a horse and rode side by side with Li Chaohua, followed closely by Dao Shisan and others, recalling the difficulty of this trip to Shanxi.
The harvest is still quite big.
The Datong East Factory Hundred Household Office has been built, and the Pingyao Escort Bureau has been recruited as a good helper. There are also a lot of elite spies under his command, and there is even a whole battalion that is not closed all night.
With the two brothers Li Rusong and Ma Lin taking care of them, nothing will go wrong.
As Shen Lie's mood improved, he looked around and asked Li Chaohuaqi: "Where is your sister?"
Li Chaohua hurriedly said: "The injury has not healed yet."
Shen Lie responded and said: "Your second mother..."
Li Chaohua hurriedly said: "Not coming."
Shen Lie felt a little strange and couldn't ask any more questions, so the group continued to move forward.
But walk, walk.
Then he looked at the dry ditches on both sides of the road and the large areas of withered vegetation. Shen Lie could not help but frown slightly, and there was an ominous omen in his heart.
The good mood was completely ruined.
seem.
It hasn't rained for a long time. This is a year of severe drought.
"drive!"
Shen Lie's heart returned like an arrow, and he quickly hit his horse and galloped towards the capital.
