Jiapingguan Chronicle

The night finally passed peacefully. Shen Haolin opened his eyes, rubbed his stiff neck, and looked at Shen Cha lying on the bed not far away.

He gently got off the soft couch, stretched his muscles, carefully walked to the bed and sat down. He reached out and touched Shen Cha's forehead. He felt a cold touch on his palm, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother?" Shen Cha vaguely felt a hand on her forehead. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Shen Haolin sitting next to her, "Are you up? What time is it now?"

"It's still early. If you don't wake up, you can sleep a little longer." Shen Haolin tucked her in, "I'm going to wash up and you can get up later, okay?"

Shen Cha thought for a while, nodded slightly, watched Shen Haolin stand up, and smiled at him,

"Go quickly, I will wait obediently."

Shen Haolin nodded, left the inner room, and went outside. He first closed the screen, then opened the outside door to let the fresh air circulate, and then walked out of the house and into the yard.

"My lord!" A shadow jumped down from the roof and saluted Shen Haolin, "You..."

"Don't worry about me, you guys have been here all night, go back and rest!" Shen Haolin looked around, "Where's Merlin?"

"Going to Sister Miao Miao's yard."

Shen Haolin nodded and waved towards him. Feeling that the air was almost flowing, he turned around and closed the door.

He didn't rush to wash up. He punched twice in the yard and sweated a little. Then he went to the bathroom next door to shower and change clothes.

After he cleaned himself up and returned to the house, he found that Shen Cha had already dressed and was about to go out to look for him.

"Brother, are you boxing?" Shen Cha looked at his body, chuckled, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go wash up first."

Shen Haolin nodded, reached out and rubbed Shen Cha's head, and put the cloak on her body.

Shen Cha wrapped herself in her cloak, left the house, glanced at the roof, and lightly snapped her fingers.

"Boss!" The shadow fell in front of Shen Cha again, "What are your orders?"

"Didn't I tell you to go rest?" Shen Cha frowned slightly, "Why are you so disobedient?"

"Boss, don't worry about us. We'll go back and rest when the brothers come to take over." Shadow smiled at Shen Cha, "It's cold outside, boss, go and wash up quickly, don't freeze."

"Okay!" Shen Cha patted Shadow on the shoulder, "Go to the dining room and tell Master Shan to prepare a soupy breakfast for you, and then go to bed after eating."

"Okay, thank you boss!" Shadow was about to return to the roof when he turned around and asked, "Where's boss and the Duke's breakfast?"

"Don't worry about us, let's go to Miaomiao courtyard to eat."

Shen Cha waved his hand, entered the next room, took a comfortable bath, rinsed his mouth with tooth salt, and then chose a slightly thicker middle coat to change into.

She was a little uncomfortable yesterday and needed to keep herself warm today. She couldn't get really sick at this juncture.

After cleaning herself up, putting on her cloak and hood, she left the bathroom and returned to the bedroom.

After entering the room, she saw Shen Haolin making tea. She closed the door, took off her cloak, and sat next to Shen Haolin.

"Drink something hot, don't get cold."

"Okay." Shen Cha took the tea that Shen Haolin had just brewed, blew lightly and said, "Brother, don't look at me like this. Don't worry, I'm not as delicate now as I was when I was a child."

"Really?" Shen Haolin smiled, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, "I hope you can do it."

"Of course." Shen Cha drank all the tea and felt that his body suddenly warmed up. "I didn't see Merlin just now. Where did he go?"

"I went to Miaomiao's yard, probably to see Xiao Xiushui."

"I don't know if he sleeps well at night, or if such a small child will have nightmares at night after being so stimulated."

"Miao Miao is here, don't be afraid." Shen Haolin patted Shen Cha on the arm, "We'll just go take a look later."

"Yeah!" Shen Cha nodded, "Merlin probably sent something for me. I got him a pendant from the armory yesterday."

"That medicinal jade from the Liao people?" Seeing Shen Cha nod, Shen Haolin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The one that is very good for calming the mind. You used it for a while when you were a child, but later the master said it was no longer needed and put it away. .”

"Yes." Shen Cha nodded, "I searched for a long time and couldn't find it. It turned out that it was received in the armory." She touched her chin and thought for a while, "At that time, we didn't know where this medicinal jade came from. Now Think about it, maybe it was left behind by the Third Master, right?"

"Well!" Shen Haolin sighed, "The third master is so powerful that he is already helpless against Yelvertu."

"Yes!" Shen Cha started to drink the second bowl of tea, "This is life, right? He still has to pay for the sins he committed back then, right?"

"That's right." Shen Haolin looked at Shen Cha's tea bowl, took it over and took a few sips, "Stop drinking, I won't be able to eat for a while."

"I just asked the good master to make some soup and water for the brothers to drink. They have been watching all night. It is true that we let them go back to bed early."

Shen Haolin didn't say anything after hearing this. He just stood up and pulled Shen Cha up at the same time. Then he put a cloak on her, held her hand, and slowly left the house, waving towards the shadow on the roof to let her know. They went back to rest, so there was no need to follow them.

The two people left their own yard and walked calmly in the direction of Jin Miaomiao's yard. The two courtyards were not too far apart. They slowly felt the tranquility of the morning and strolled slowly. They arrived in a short while.

As soon as the two people arrived outside the yard, before they entered, they heard the silver bell-like laughter of a child coming from inside.

"It seems that our worries are in vain, this little guy is not affected at all!"

Shen Haolin chuckled lightly and pulled Shen Cha into the courtyard. Before they had taken two steps, they felt a strong wind coming, and a small meat ball rushed over and hit their legs hard.

"Why are you running so fast!" Shen Cha quickly squatted down, reached out to grab the little meat ball, and pulled the person up, "Did you fall somewhere?"

"No, no!" Little Meat Ball...oh, no, Xiao Xiushui looked up at Shen Cha, showing a silly smile, looked at Shen Haolin, then at Shen Cha, and said, "Brother and sister are here, If you heard it, come out and greet it." "Did you hear it?" Shen Cha rubbed Xiao Xiushui's head and said cheerfully, "Why is the little baby's hearing so good?"

"Yes!" Xiao Xiushui nodded, smiled and tugged on Shen Cha's arm, "Go in!"

"Okay, let's go in."

Shen Cha asked Xiao Xiushui to walk between her and Shen Haolin. The two held his hands and walked towards the main room. They saw Jin Miaomiao, Hongye and Meilin standing on the steps, waving to them.

"I said I didn't see your people so early in the morning, but they actually came here." Shen Cha glanced at Mei Lin, chuckled, and said, "Where are the things? Have you delivered them?"

"Sent it here." Merlin nodded, "You have already given it to our little Xiu Shui. We like it very much." She knelt down and looked at Xiao Xiu Shui, "Do you like the gift that your sister just gave you?"

"I like it!" Xiao Xiushui took out the medicinal jade that Chen Cha had taken from the arsenal from around her neck and bared her teeth at Shen Haolin and Chen Cha, "This one is fragrant. I really like it."

"As long as you like it!" Shen Cha patted Xiao Xiushui on the head, "Put it away and wear it obediently. Don't lose it, okay?"

"Okay, sister, don't worry, I won't lose it."

"So good!" Shen Cha patted his head, "Let's go have dinner, okay?"

"Okay!" Xiao Xiushui nodded, pulled Shen Cha and rushed into the room, "It's time to eat, it's time to eat!"

Xiao Xiushui was so strong that she almost pulled Shen Cha over. Fortunately, Shen Haolin helped her in time and stabilized her figure.

"Go slowly, don't be in a hurry, be careful of falling!"

Shen Cha grabbed Xiao Xiu Shui to make him not run so fast, but Xiao Xiu Shui didn't know why she was so happy, she just kept dragging Shen Cha and Shen Haolin into the house.

Jin Miaomiao, Mei Lin, and Hongye followed them and sighed helplessly. Children are really terrible beings. They are so energetic from morning to night, and they don't feel tired at all.

Jin Miaomiao walked into the room and saw Xiao Xiu Shui holding Shen Cha's arm. She sighed again and walked over to take Xiao Xiu Shui away who insisted on sticking to Shen Cha's side.

"Children should sit in children's seats, eat in a proper manner, and don't cling to adults, you know?"

"understood!"

Xiao Xiushui was not happy yet, but he was a good baby. No matter how reluctant he was, he followed Jin Miaomiao obediently. As he walked, he waved to Shen Cha, with a reluctant look, as if he was going somewhere far away and hadn't seen each other for a long time.

After Meilin put everyone's breakfast on the table, he sat at the same table as Hongye, filled Hongye with a bowl of porridge, and placed it in front of her.

Hongye held the porridge bowl and blinked, watching Shen Haolin bring a bun to Shen Cha and put it on the plate. He scooped up a spoonful of porridge with a spoon, blew on it, and handed it to Shen Cha's mouth.

"What are you looking at!" Merlin poked Hong Ye and whispered, "Restrain yourself a little. Your intense eyes can burn holes in the Duke and the boss. I'm afraid they don't know you're looking at them." The two of them, right?"

"As long as you know it, you know it. I'm just looking at it openly and openly, and there's nothing sneaky about it, right?"

"Then what are you looking at? What is there to see?"

"There's nothing to see, just take a look." Hongye looked at the table, took a small steamed bun, spread a layer of sauce on it, took a bite, looked over there while eating, and said, "You two Everyone told me that they have a mutual understanding, but I really want to see what is the difference after they have completely talked it over."

"Can you see anything? Is there anything different from before?"

"It's indeed a little different." Hongye rolled his huge eyes, snorted twice, and said, "I'm getting more and more bored, and I don't know how to restrain myself anymore, and... tsk tsk tsk, I don't care about other people's opinions at all. .”

"Really?" Merlin chuckled, "It's been like this since yesterday. Although I was still shocked when I first saw it, after one night, I found that I had gotten used to it and didn't care at all."

"What's the point of caring about this? They're just showing it to us, otherwise it wouldn't be like this, right?" Hongye took another bite of steamed buns, took a sip of porridge, shook his head gently, clicked his tongue twice, and said, "Besides, it's nice of them to be like this, isn't it?"

"It's indeed good. They both swore an oath in front of the old Duke and his wife. Isn't that good?" Merlin took a sip of porridge, looked at Hong Ye who was nibbling on a steamed bun, and moved towards him slyly. He whispered, "What are you going to do?"

"Me?" Hongye was stunned, "What should I do?"

"With the Marquis!" Seeing Hong Ye open his mouth, Merlin waved his hand towards him, "Don't deny it, we all see that there is something wrong between you two."

"I'm not going to deny it. Xiaocha asked me about this." Hongye took another bite of the steamed bun, "Anyway, we've been together for so many years, so let's just leave it like this. Now is not the time to talk about this. Everything is waiting for stability. Let's talk about it when we come down. By then..." She chuckled lightly, "Maybe it will be different, right?"

Merlin finished her porridge and nodded lightly. Just when she was about to say something, she heard hurried footsteps outside. She stood up and stood at the door, when she saw Xue Ruitian hurriedly walked into the yard. .

Merlin quickly opened the door to the room, stepped aside and nodded towards Shen Haolin and Shen Cha.

"Master, boss, the Marquis is here!"

When Hongye heard this, she raised her eyebrows slightly, put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, stood up and walked to the door.

"Master Hou!"

After Xue Ruitian came in, he glanced at Hongye, then at the table behind her, and patted her shoulder.

"Eat your food quickly to avoid stomachache later."

Hongye nodded, turned around, sat back down again, and continued to eat his breakfast slowly.

"Coming?" Shen Haolin waved to Mei Lin, "Prepare bowls and chopsticks for Xiao Tian'er. If you come here at this time, you probably haven't eaten yet."

Xue Ruitian sat directly next to Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, sighed softly, and said, "Something happened."

"Something happened so early in the morning? Since when has there been so much trouble at the border?" Shen Haolin frowned slightly, "What's going on? Tell me slowly."

"It can't be said that something happened, it's just that Shen Zhonghe has arrived." Xue Ruitian took the tea bowl handed over by Mei Lin, took a deep breath, took two big sips, and then said slowly, "When the city gate was just opened in the morning, follow me People who entered the city wanted to sneak in, but they were discovered by Xiaojiu’s people and were immediately detained. They were not brought here, so they were blindfolded and taken to Xiaojiu’s camp.”
