Chapter 597
Xie Yuan was shaken, she tilted her head and thought for a while, then said:
"Too many people are easy to be noticed."

"It's simple, the two of us walk in front, let Brother Liu Zhang Qing and the others walk behind together, don't disturb each other a hundred steps apart, if there is any accident, there will be someone to help, isn't that good?"

Xie Yuan was completely speechless, she looked at Shen Liuzhen for a while, Danfeng's eyes flickered, she seemed to be a little entangled, and finally said:

"OK then……"

……

……

Although it was said that after the surrender, the generals and soldiers under Shen's subordinates were ordered to choose whether to stay or not, but not many people left.

The reason is very simple. Most of them have no home, or they can’t eat enough after leaving the military camp. For them, they often travel around and move away without a fixed place. What I can't bear is the comrades-in-arms who get along day and night.

As soon as news of Shen and Xie Yuan's hundreds of thousands of troops surrendered to Wei State reached Pingcheng, there was an uproar between the ruling and opposition parties.

Some people regard this as a sign of the prosperous state of Wei and the aspirations of the people.Some people think that this is a major threat to the further expansion of the power of the Han people, and even to the rule of the Xianbei people.

Some people think that this is another big step for Shen Liuzhen, the Han servant who is quite trusted by His Majesty, to make great achievements and accumulate his own power.

The Han bureaucrats in Wei State welcomed this phenomenon very much.After all, the Hu people have always boasted that they are fierce in force. It is true that the military towns of all sides in the Wei state, and the main military forces are mostly Hu people.

The proportion of Han people in the military field is small, which is one of the reasons why the Han bureaucrats are despised by Xianbei people.

But the arrival of Xie Yuan and everyone from the Shen family made all this different.

When it comes to military force, often the person who knows you best is not your comrades-in-arms, but your opponent.

Your opponent has fought against you, suffered losses and suffered pain, he knows your strength better than anyone else.

Song and Wei have fought each other for many years, and Wei has powerful generals who have fought in battles. Although they look down on Song's military power, they think that most of them are a group of embroidered pillows who can't bear hardships, are long-winded, and unresponsive.

But they knew in their hearts that the army led by the Shen family had its own rules and characteristics, and was also more tenacious than the armies of other factions.

Not to mention Xie Yuan, he was a rising star in the Shen family's army. With his bold personal characteristics, he made up for the gentle and cautious combat style of the Shen family army, which made Wei Guo suffer twice.

Regardless of whether they surrendered or not, whether they were willing to fight for Wei State or not, just coming out of Song State would be a huge blow to Song State's military strength.

For a while, many people put up memorials one after another, wanting to encourage Emperor Shi Yu Wulei to strike while the iron was hot and attack the Song State, as if they could annex the entire Song State in one fell swoop in the next moment.

Wu Lei was also very happy, and in his heart he loved and valued Shen Liuzhen even more. In his heart, Shen Liuzhen was not only his friend, but also his lucky star and noble person.

But although he was happy, he was not dizzy.

He suppressed those Xianbei nobles who preached that they wanted to fight:
"If there is no food and grass, how can we fight? Besides, the Han people were in a mess and fought fiercely. Wouldn't it be good to let them fight each other? Do you have to go to war now and give them a chance to clear up their past suspicions and unanimously speak out? My big Wei can What's the deal?"

Originally, according to the usual practice, the generals and troops who surrendered from the Han people were sent to the north to defend the border with Rouran.

But this time, Wu Lei had a different plan, so he decided to wait for Shen Liuzhen to come back, meet the important figures in the Shen family, and Xie Yuan, who was all cocooned by Shen Liuzhen's nagging. make a decision.

For the time being, it is placed near the military town near the border.On the one hand, it can prevent mutations, and on the other hand, it can facilitate the allocation of grain and grass.

But who would have thought that after the imperial order, the news came back——Shen Liuzhen directly dropped Dugujian's guards assigned to him, and followed Xie Yuan to the Song Kingdom!

……

……

On the country road, Shen Liuzhen rode a horse and walked side by side with Xie Yuan, turning his head to look at the silent Xie Yuan from time to time.

If it is said that Xie Yuan in the past was a sharp sword, in order to prove that she was always working hard, even the passing wind would be cut in half by her.

Now she is more like a sword in its sheath. Although she can't see the sharpness, even if she is quietly placed on the sword stand, she can't hide her past achievements and glory.

You know that once she is out of the sheath, she will still have a sharp sword edge, and the snowy light is frightening, but she is unwilling to get out of the sheath again.

It's too quiet, as if always carrying indescribable sadness and loneliness.

"A Yuan... Let's go by boat, we can get to the capital sooner." Shen Liuzhen suddenly asked for something to say.

Hearing this, Xie Yuan froze for a while as he was slowly swaying on horseback. He turned his head and looked at him with cold eyes, and uttered a sentence for a long time:
"Don't sit down."

Shen Liuzhen felt that Xie Yuan's expression seemed to dislike him, so he explained:

"It's not that I'm lazy and don't want to ride a horse. I'm thinking about you. You used to be the most impatient...you have to hurry wherever you want to go."

But who would have thought that Xie Yuan frowned and licked his lips, looked at the white clouds in the distance and said impatiently:

"When I saw the boat, I remembered that you lied to me and ran away. I wish I could kill you."

Shen Liuzhen had long forgotten about this episode. Hearing Xie Yuan's words at this moment, he felt heartbroken, and said displeasedly:

"Ah Yuan...I think I should be the one who should be more angry about this matter, right? Think about it, for you, I am bound and merciless everywhere. When I wrote that plan, I was still hesitating whether to do it or not. , it's not because of you...or else..."

Shen Liuzhen stopped talking immediately, and swallowed back all the words that followed, because Xie Yuan was staring at him... He was afraid...

Only Xie Yuan said coldly:
"Otherwise, what can you do... Why don't you think that if I didn't show mercy, you would have been beaten to death by me a long time ago, so I can keep you there to make trouble?"

Shen Liuzhen's face twitched for a moment, and then he smiled awkwardly and said:

"It's... Madam taught me... Oh no, Husband taught me."

Xie Yuan frowned, and the corners of his mouth were drawn into a line, looking at Shen Liuzhen with a complicated expression... Shen Liuzhen is really the strangest person in the world.

Sometimes she is thankful for his lack of face, skin and self-esteem, and sometimes she can't help feeling ashamed for him...

At this moment, a manor appeared in their field of vision.

The courtyard wall of the manor is tall and looks old, a few people dressed as soldiers of the Song Dynasty are climbing over the wall of their house in broad daylight...
