Chapter 7 Blocking

Just as she was about to enter the back door of the General's Mansion, Jiang Lianzhi called out to her, "Why?"

Shen Yu had already stepped through the door with one foot. She paused when she heard this. The door was a few steps higher and she looked down at him.

"Because I already have someone I like. Is this reason enough?"

"Who?" Jiang Lianzhi approached, with no intention of giving up.

There is no one Shen Yu likes. She will reveal her secret if she hesitates even a moment.

"Master Lanyue." After saying that, he closed the door with a bang.

The slamming of the door made the boy tremble, "Miss Shen has a really bad temper. I don't think she's lame at all. She walks pretty fast."

Jiang Lianzhi looked at the closed door for a long time and curled his lips.

She doesn't know Mr. Lan Yue, she just heard it from others, and she dares to use it to prevaricate him. It depends on whether he believes it or not.

The attendant looked at Jiang Lianzhi's expression and didn't know why his master was smiling as he looked at the lantern.

I'm afraid this person is stupid. He smiled so happily after being rejected.

"Sir, if Miss Shen doesn't marry..." the attendant's voice became smaller and smaller.

"She will marry," Jiang Linzhi turned and walked towards the alley, and said firmly: "She will definitely marry me, she can only marry me."

Several of the family's masters are at the border all year round, and there are not many maids and servants in the General's Mansion. At this hour, most of the servants have already rested.

Shen Yu and Lv Yao took a path with few people and walked into the courtyard with familiarity. They walked in smoothly.

Lu Yao has been whispering all the way on the road.

"Miss, have you ever seen Mr. Lan Yue? Is he more handsome than Mr. Jiang?"

"I heard that Mr. Lanyue Qingfeng Jiyue, is it true?"

"Miss, miss?"

Shen Yu said in a deep voice: "Shut up!"

Green medicine: "..."

Xie Yun, the crown prince of Beilin, was named Tingzhou, and the title of Master Lanyue came from unknown sources. It is said that it was taken from "The boat stopped to grasp the moon, and the mountain was looking at the clear sky at night".

She had never met Xie Yun in her previous life, but she only remembered that the astonishing Crown Prince Xie, who was fourteen years old, drove the Beibei people hundreds of miles away with a sword and became a fearful god of murder for the enemy troops in the border counties.

Unfortunately, he was injured on the battlefield and lost all his martial arts, which was somewhat similar to his own situation. Later, when the imperial power changed, the new emperor was afraid of Beilin and planned to have him killed outside Chengtian Gate.

How could it not be sad that a generation of heroes fell like this?

"Miss, don't be depressed, please say something." Lu Yao was extremely anxious.

Shen Yu poked her head and whispered: "Use your brain and think about it. If he is Qingfeng Jiyue, what will he rely on when he goes to the battlefield? Does he use male sex to seduce the enemy?"

Lu Yao suddenly realized, "Yes, but I have heard rumors that some enemy soldiers were so stunned when they saw Prince Beilin on the battlefield that they even forgot to draw their swords."

Shen Yu has been on the battlefield. Life and death on the battlefield can happen in an instant. Who can be so distracted that they even risk their lives? Whoever likes to believe such rumors, she definitely doesn't believe it anyway.

"It's still somewhat convincing to say that I was frightened by Xie Yun."

"But the rumors can't be all false, right? Isn't he no longer on the battlefield?" Lu Yao said.

Shen Yu thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense. He was seriously injured on the battlefield a few years ago. It is said that the arrows were poisoned, and he never went on an expedition again. There is wealth in the north, and the young masters there are all good. Fengya, he might change his ways after retiring."

The lights in the yard were mostly turned off. The two of them sneaked out. After entering, Shen Yu called out softly.

"Hongqiao".

Hongqiao had been pretending to be a lady on the bed all night. When she heard Shen Yu's voice, she quickly turned over on the bed, opened the curtain and walked out.

"You are finally back. The eldest young master came once before, but I was able to put him off."

"You didn't reveal anything, did you?"

Hongqiao said: "No."

Shen Yu took off her hairpin and hairpin and threw it on the dowry. She took out a small packet of medicinal powder from her sleeve pocket and sat in front of the dressing table, lost in thought.

Jiang Lianzhi didn't know whether he took the wrong medicine or was struck dumb by lightning. He had deviated from the route of his previous life. He didn't know if his father and brother would go on the battlefield and he would follow the same path.

If she remembered correctly, the urgent report of the invasion of Juexi's army would be submitted to the Ministry of War on the ninth day of September. The cabinet had discussed the generals to lead the army. On the morning of the eleventh day of the lunar month, her father and brother entered the palace and left the capital for Yanliang Pass that day. ,

As long as she prevents her father and brother from entering the palace, the cabinet will naturally discuss the choice of another general. The war is urgent, and your Majesty will not delay it. As soon as Zhu's approval is approved, her father and brother will be safe.

The next day is the Double Ninth Festival.

Originally, they were going to go up to a high place to worship their ancestors and admire the chrysanthemums, but the General's Mansion was closed to all visitors, and they only invited two doctors from the largest medical clinic in Beijing.

I don’t know what this family ate, but three of them fell into the Shen family at once: General Shen, Little General Shen, and the eldest lady of the Shen family who was rumored to be lame.

The illness came like a mountain, and all three of them could not get out of bed.

Shen Yu was lying on the bed. She had vomited five or six times that day. Her whole body was limp and weak. She felt that half of her life was gone. Her father and brother must not be much better either.

"Miss, wake up quickly, something happened."

Shen Yu opened her eyes drowsily, feeling weak all over her body. She saw that the symptoms were actually more serious than yesterday.

"What's wrong?"

Hongqiao squatted by the couch and wiped the sweat from her neck with a handkerchief, her face anxious, "The general has entered the palace."

"What?!"

Shen Yu got up from the bed and said, "Isn't my father sick and unable to go to court? He couldn't walk yesterday."

Lv Yao frowned and continued: "Someone came from the palace again. This time, the imperial physician was sent. I don't know what happened over there. I heard a lot of noise, and then the general left."

Shen Yu hurriedly threw off the quilt and got out of bed. As soon as she landed, her legs softened.

"How long have you been walking?"

Lv Yao supported her arm and said: "Just walked for a cup of tea."

"We should be able to catch up," Shen Yu ordered: "Hong Qiao, you ride a horse to stop him first, and tell him that I said that this battle is dangerous and you must not accept the order. Prepare a carriage for me."

She was careless. She originally thought that as long as she didn't let her father enter the palace, there would be room for maneuver in this matter, but she still underestimated Shen Zhongan.

The Shen family has been in the army for generations, but they have no titles. Shen Zhongan fought on the battlefield for military merits and climbed to the position of general step by step in the sea of ​​corpses. His feelings for the border are much deeper than those in Shengjing.

When the war comes, let alone not being able to get out of bed, he will crawl to the border even if he has to crawl.

At dawn, the carriage galloped all the way and arrived in front of the palace gate. Shen Zhongan was not seen, only Hongqiao, who was sent to chase him, was waiting there anxiously.

"Didn't catch up?" Shen Yu asked while lifting the curtain.

Hongqiao's cheeks flushed, and she was sweating all over as she galloped over. "I did catch up with him, and I said what I should say, but I couldn't stop him at all."

Shen Yu's heart sank, and before she could think of a solution, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded beside her.
