Jiapingguan Chronicle

"Can we really have fun?" Shen Cha chuckled, "She used the word blood debt, and she also used her revenge methods on you. Master Shen, you have been saying before that she My feelings towards you and your mother have not changed at all. I have always felt that you are innocent and cannot be implicated. So why now are you taking revenge on you, Erniang and Xiaobao?" She shrugged. , “That’s a contradiction, isn’t it?”

"This is something I can't understand, and I don't know where I angered her."

"I have a question!" Jin Miaomiao knocked on the table lightly, causing Shen Zhonghe's attention to shift to him. "You just said that your grandfather regarded her as his biological daughter. Your father, Both your mother and brother-in-law asked you to be filial to her and provide for her until the end of her life, right?"

"Yes." Shen Zhonghe nodded, "What's the problem?"

"The problem is big." Jin Miaomiao looked at Shen Zhonghe, "Both your parents and your brother-in-law seem to be relatively sure that Liang Jieque will always be in your family, and they have never considered that she will get married. , she will become someone else’s daughter-in-law, right?”

"This..." Shen Zhonghe was stunned when he heard Jin Miaomiao's words, "It seems that there is such a thing, but I asked my mother and Aunt Liang about this matter, and they both said that it was Aunt Liang who didn't If she is willing to get married, her family won’t be able to force her or anything like that.”

"Do you believe it?"

"This..." Shen Zhonghe shook his head gently, "Actually, I don't believe it. Even if Er Niang's family is so tolerant, even if they know that I have someone else they like, they are not willing to break the contract easily, let alone my family! Speaking of which, my grandfather is actually very traditional. From the fact that he arranged a baby marriage for me when I was just born, it can be seen that he cares about this very much. Not only me, but also my father and mother It was decided long ago that he is my brother-in-law. I don’t know why, but it seems that there has never been any talk of marriage.”

"Your brother-in-law didn't talk about marriage before he was alive?"

"No." Shen Zhonghe shook his head gently. He lowered his head and thought for a while, "Could it be...no way?"

"What is Master Shen thinking of?"

Shen Zhonghe didn't speak, his expression was a little complicated, ranging from disbelief to sudden realization. He was silent for a long time, then he picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of herbal tea, and then looked up at everyone.

"Is it possible...my brother-in-law and Aunt Liang are..."

"Do you think they might have had an affair before?"

"I don't know if there is an affair or not, but the relationship between my brother-in-law and Aunt Liang is indeed different from others. When I was young, I was quite naughty. I didn't want to sit in the study, so I was willing to run around and go crazy. Make trouble, go to the house and untie the tiles, etc. So, when I was messing around at home, I bumped into a few times, my uncle and Aunt Liang walking out of the same house affectionately. "

"Didn't they notice you?" "No!" Shen Zhonghe chuckled and waved his hand, "I have been very agile since I was a child. Otherwise, I wouldn't always think about going to serve as a soldier with Liu Shuai. I want to make a difference because I felt like I was the material from a very young age.”

"I didn't expect that Mr. Shen is quite confident."

"It's a joke, it's a joke. I can't compare with you, and it's not worth mentioning at all. You are the real heroic youths. To be honest, I admire you very much and envy you. Although I have determined to be a hero since I was very young. I joined the army, fought against my family for a long time, and successfully fulfilled my wish. But when I was your age, I was still an incompetent soldier." Shen Zhonghe waved his hands gently and said with a smile, "Before, I just heard that Duke Shen, Marquis Xue, and General Shen were young heroes. I was quite dismissive of it. I thought you had achieved such achievements because of your family's glory. But a few years ago, you had a battle. It was very tragic. The entire Shen family army faced the encirclement and suppression of Jin and Liao. Almost half of it was lost, but it still won. The battle report was sent back to Beijing, and the court was shocked. At this time, I really understood that the northern border was a It is such a dangerous place. Of the four borders, east, west, north and south, I am afraid only the southern border is the safest."

"That's not to say, the southern border is not very peaceful, and the tribes in the southwest are also responsible for the Liu family army." Shen Cha smiled lightly, "Master Shen, there is no need to belittle yourself."

"This is not to belittle oneself, but one is self-aware." Shen Zhonghe looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Xue Ruitian, and then at Shen Jiu who had been sitting quietly next to Shen Cha. He sighed softly and said, "The battle report of that battle After the news returned to Beijing, the Ministry of War, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, the Patrol Battalion, and the Forbidden Army conducted a large-scale simulation to simulate the entire war. Whether it was the people from the Ministry of War, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, the patrol battalion, or the Forbidden Army. When facing the coalition forces, they are not able to preserve their own power like the Shen family army, and can defeat more with less." He sighed softly, with a look of shame on his face, and said, "Your Majesty has gone to see them twice, but they were both defeated. When it’s over, leave.”

"His Majesty even went to see your actual combat deduction?" Seeing Shen Zhonghe nod, Shen Haolin raised his eyebrows, "I don't seem to have heard His Majesty mention it, right?"

“Yes!” And he will be laughed at many times, so he is very relevant."

"Brother Xiaotian is right." Shen Jiu nodded and extended his thumb towards Xue Ruitian. He turned to look at Shen Zhonghe and said with a smile, "Master Shen, thank you for telling us such news. General Song If General He Xia knew, he would be extremely happy."

"That's for sure." Xue Ruitian nodded, "I finally found something he can laugh at. I will definitely be very happy. Xiaojiu, remember to tell them."

"You..." Shen Zhonghe couldn't understand this group of people and shook his head gently, "Let's get back to the subject. Anyway, since that deduction, I have known the gap with Shen Jiajun. I can only admire him, no more. The jealousy or anger before is gone.”

"Actually, if Mr. Shen has stayed at the border for a while and fought a few battles, he will know that there is actually no mystery in it." Shen Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly, "We are all too familiar with each other, and there are no tricks. If you can't hide it from the other side, you can only go head-on, adapt accordingly, see the other side's vulnerabilities, and seize the right opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to them."

"That's right." Shen Cha also nodded, "But Mr. Shen really doesn't have to deny himself completely. The navy is also not easy. If we are asked to fight at sea, we will not be able to do it."

"This is called specialization in the art."
