This idea has been in Shen Yan's mind for a long time, every time he saw Xiao Suo holding the book as if facing a consecrated Tathagata, he couldn't help but think wildly, but he didn't dare to put it into action.

Of course Xiao Suo couldn't agree to such a treaty that humiliated the country and humiliated the country. He faltered with "disgraceful" and then closed his eyes and remained still.General Shen was disillusioned, so he could only rub against him depressedly, turned over and fell asleep.

The next morning, when Shen Yan woke up, Xiao Suo had already woken up.He was wearing a blue bamboo cloth robe, with a section of white lining slightly exposed at the collar of the sleeves, standing beside the bed like a jade statue.

Shen Yan was blindfolded, and saw that there was a layer of morning light covering his body, as if a god descended to earth, wanting to take his life away, and he was stunned for a moment: "Uh...you, what are you doing?"

Xiao Suo's blood boiled all night, and he couldn't calm down for a long time, as if his body temperature had become hot.There is a difference between going with the flow and being willing. The former is helplessness and obedience, while the latter is joy and luck.

He felt happy and lucky last night.

After tossing around in the middle of the night, he barely slept for two hours, then got up early, stood by the bed stupidly, stared at Shen Yan for another hour, and deeply felt that he was indeed a worldly person.No matter how many books you read and how much you call yourself a literati, you cannot escape your secular fate.

However, he was content with it.

"I... well, there is porridge on the table, and there are assorted pancake rolls. Would you like to get up and eat some?"

Shen Yan nodded confusedly: "Oh, eat, eat. Are you... nothing else?"

Xiao Suo handed him the towel, willow branch, and rett, and after he washed up, he rolled up his sleeves and sat down at the table, Fang said: "I carefully considered your proposal last night, um... If you are obsessed with that matter , it is not impossible to try.”

Shen Yan seemed to be struck by lightning, he paused the spoon in his hand, and quickly went over his words.How to answer him?If you say yes, it is to admit that you are obsessed with this, and it will not look good.If you say no, the opportunity is once in a lifetime, and you will regret it if you miss it.

"This..." Shen Yan lowered her head and smirked, "I still listen to what you want. If you want, let's play for a while, and it doesn't matter if you don't want to. I'm not attached, not attached..."

Xiao Suo breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Since that's the case, let's forget it. I thought you were obsessed with it, so you said that. After all, this matter is insulting to gentlemen, so it's best not to do it."

With the tip of his tongue that was almost bitten off, Shen Yan nodded again, "Well, yes, it's insulting to gentleness..."

"Besides..." Xiao Suo casually handed him some side dishes.

"Ah?" Is there a turning point?

"It's meaningless to say something like this in advance."

"...You've learned badly!"

For the next two days, General Shen was immersed in boundless regret.Xiao Suo was reading a book in the carriage, and he was sitting beside him watching people.Occasionally, when an assassin came, he would act as a guard to show off his handsome appearance and extraordinary force.

After Shen Yan's persistent nonsense, Xiao Suo was finally willing to put down his book and spared his energy to chat and laugh with him.General Shen fought in the north and south, although he didn't have much writing in his belly, he had more knowledge than ordinary people, and there were always novel stories in his conversation.

Xiao Suo listened with great interest, and deeply felt that warriors can also have special connotations, such as Shen Wenyu.However, in less than a blink of an eye, he moved his hands and feet again...

On the evening of the fourth day, they finally arrived in the capital.

Qin Huan returned to the palace with the Xuanzhi guards and parted ways with them.Shen Yan thanked him and said goodbye to him, and took the people to his general's mansion in the east of the city.

Xiao Suo pulled the curtain to see the grand scene outside.At the foot of the emperor, where the imperial city is, it is really different.It was already night, but the streets were extremely bustling, the lights were feasting, the cars and horses were rumbling, and there was a scene of singing and dancing, prosperity and romance.

The size, carvings, and decorations of Shen Yan's carriage are all regulated by a third-rank military general.Therefore, although they entered Beijing in a low-key manner, many people recognized them on the way, some avoided them, and some came forward to say hello.

The chariots and horses walked to the area of ​​Xuanhuafang, and suddenly a person emerged from the red shadows in the street, and handed a note to Eleven.Shen Yan took it from the car window, and saw that it said: "I learned that the general will return to Beijing recently, and I have been waiting here for a long time. If I don't give up, I still miss the old feelings. Please come to the house to talk about it." The signature is A "seven" character, a bright red plum blossom is drawn underneath, and even this flower note has a faint plum fragrance.

Shen Yan looked at Xiao Suo who was sitting quietly beside him, with an embarrassed expression on his face.It's really troublesome to go to this appointment or not to go.He carefully explained: "This person's name is Mei Qi, who I... used to know. He is close to King Qi, just like me. I don't know why he invited me, really, I really don't know!"

Xiao Suo nodded slightly: "The student understands."

Shen Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly swears: "I really don't know! He and I are just a romantic relationship, and neither of them is serious! I swear, I don't have anyone else in my heart, otherwise I will call God..."

Xiao Suo covered his mouth: "I know, no need to swear."

Shen Yan weighed the note carefully, with a troubled expression on his face: "He should be looking for me for something important, I..."

Xiao Suo lowered his head and said: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, just go."

"No," Shen Yan grabbed his hand, "I mean, I want you to go with me. If he has something serious to do with me, you can listen to it; if he has nothing serious to do, you can feel at ease with me. "

Xiao Suo hesitated: "I... still won't go. They are all high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and I'm not someone I can climb high in white clothes. Going there will only make everyone feel uncomfortable."

The so-called right family is often not empty talk.Even if there is no sect prejudice, when people of different classes get along, there will inevitably be collisions and frictions due to differences in identities, experiences, and insights.

Shen Yan said sternly: "Don't say such things, what are you not. You are my man, who dares to underestimate you. Your knowledge is so good, they only value you! Besides, if you don't go, I will be alone Go, if there is something in the middle, I can't explain it clearly with a thousand mouths. It's better for you to watch me from the side, lest I make mistakes and get confused."

Xiao Suo paused, and reluctantly agreed.Shen Yan immediately bowed his head and told Eleven, ordering him to reply to the person who came, saying that he would go back to the mansion first to change clothes, and then go.

The carriages and horses continued to move forward, turned two alleys, and went to the famous Qinchu Restaurant in Beijing, passing by the Siqian Building, when a woman in cool clothes suddenly appeared at the door, holding the car window and shouting: "General Shen, I won't be here for a while." , the spirit officer in our building misses you! Why don't you come down to play?"

The red and white Danko painted on her nails jumped into Xiao Suo's eyes without a trace.Eleven's eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly bent over to pull her away from the horse, and said with a smile, "No, no, my general has something important to do today, so I really can't go."

Just as Shen Yan wanted to defend himself, the carriage turned to the street in front of Nanfeng Pavilion.Another two or three people came up to welcome customers, and everyone called Shen Yan's name, like old friends who have known each other for many years.

Eleven was so busy sending his general away that he didn't have time to ride the horse, and was surrounded by the crowd alive.

"Listen to my explanation..." Shen Yan's embarrassed expression froze on his face, and he tightly held Xiao Suo's hand and did not let go.

Xiao Suo remained silent, but the fingers holding the book gradually turned pale in the darkness.

The chariots and horses left Xuanhuafang, left the south city, and entered the sparsely populated east city.Shen Yan finally heaved a sigh of relief, and still kept explaining, not knowing whether the description was getting darker or not.

Dongcheng is the place where high-ranking officials and dignitaries live. Most of the houses here are granted and built by imperial edicts, and only a few of them are built by themselves like Shen Yan.When he chose his mansion back then, he didn't have a good idea and chose the one closest to Xuanhuafang, the place of fireworks, but now he has finally suffered retribution.

Xiao Suo knew that Shen Yan's status was precious, and he had always been a bit uninhibited, so there must be some things like flirting with others.He had already made preparations in his heart, but he didn't know that he had reached this point.

Shen Yan was guilty and anxious, not afraid that he would get angry, but afraid that he would not say anything when he was angry.After he had finished his good words, he swore to the sky that he would make amends and never do such absurd things again.

Xiao Suo remained silent, not knowing what to say.He was a little surprised, a little annoyed, a little uneasy, and even a little overwhelmed.Shen Yan turned out to be such Shen Yan, what should he do?

The chariots and horses crossed a stone bridge, turned around two courtyards, and soon stopped in front of a big mansion.

Shen Yan's General's Mansion is much more imposing than the ancient Shen Mansion in Songxi Village. The two rows of red lanterns are bigger than the stone lions at the entrance. big.

There are two lines of guards wearing swords and armor in front of the gate, but it is a unique scenery along the way.The guards saw their carriage from afar and knelt on one knee to greet them.

Seeing the grandeur in front of him, Xiao Suo suddenly thought of retreating, feeling quite ashamed.In the past, he thought that Shen Yan was the eldest son of a merchant in a small mountain village. Although he knew that he was Ding You's general, that identity was far away and seemed like an illusory term.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, he is a scholar and a scholar, no matter how poor he is, his status is higher than that of merchants.Moreover, the general is a warrior, and the civil and military disputes in this dynasty are so fierce.He used to consider himself a literati, even though he didn't mean to look down on warriors, he naturally had a bit of nobility.

But now, along the way, he has gradually become a real general, no longer a false name or a legend, but a dignified third-rank official of the imperial court, with every move, step in and out, and his own momentum.Everything he saw and heard reminded Xiao Suo that there was a difference between himself and him.

Shen Yan didn't know that he had thought so complicatedly and far-reachingly, and just thought he was sulking over the accident in Fireworks and Willow Lane just now, so he started a new round of swearing.

Xiao Suo didn't respond, and silently followed him to get out of the car, entered the mansion through the side door, bypassed the two inner doors, turned around the screen wall, passed through the flower hall, and walked through the yard, only to see brightly lit lights in the main hall, with hidden human voices.

Just as Shen Yan stepped up a step, a red shadow suddenly rushed out, and softly shouted: "Daddy, you are back!"
