Chapter 111 She Needs to Be Careful
Lin Fan stayed in the Ministry of War all day, and Fang Tian brought his lunch over and borrowed a room for it.

The Ministry of War is as if it is facing a big enemy.

While looking around, Shi Shangshu asked Dong Shilang: "Is it true that you came to see the old file?"

Dong Shilang said: "While he was eating, I went to the storeroom and dusted some documents from the late Emperor's reign, and everything else remained the same."

Shi Shangshu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Although our military department is down-to-earth," Shi Shangshu said, "there is still a war at the border, so it's not our fault that our brains are not clear, but in case there are really one or two mouse droppings, right?"

Dong Shilang nodded again and again: "That's the truth."

"It's really good to find spies, and catch them all!" Shi Shangshu sighed, "These years, we have been on the defensive, and the border gates have been terribly disturbed, and they have not been beaten out. If his father was still here, he would have It pierced Xiliang."

"It's a pity to decide the Duke first." Dong Shilang said.

"That's right, since he left, there are fewer people who still want to recover the lost land." Shi Shangshu sighed again.

After sighing, I still have a belly full of words, but I dare not say any more.

After the emperor ascended the throne, the war gradually calmed down.

When Lin Xuan was still alive, he often submitted papers asking for troops to be dispatched, and many veteran generals agreed.

In the first eight years, although Xizhou was not conquered, the imperial court took back some cities one after another.

After Lin Xuan died of illness, the voice of the court to govern the internal affairs became more serious.

Especially in the past eight or nine years, except for guarding the border, the imperial court never took a step outside.

But in border wars, if you don't enter, the enemy will.

Da Zhou seemed to only care about defense, not to mention the decent small courts like Xiliang and Nanshu, even some tribes and horse thieves dared to attack several towns and surrounding villages.

It has been like this for many years, not to mention that the people at the border have complaints, and the garrison also has complaints.

What worries Shi Shangshu the most is that, except for the troops stationed at the border, other soldiers who have only been drilled and have never fought with real swords and guns in the court, what will they do on the battlefield.

But these words are useless if they are said in court.

The days of peace have passed for a long time, and not everyone wants to continue to forge ahead.

In private, I chatted with several old generals, but on the surface, forget it.

Thinking of this, Shi Shangshu glanced in the direction of the warehouse.

Lin Fan had never really commanded a soldier, so he was inexperienced.

If there is a chance, let the veteran generals lead the area and experience it, maybe there will be a lot of gains.

After a few years, those veterans can no longer lift their knives, and then the level will really be broken.

It is said that a tiger father has no dogs and sons, and I hope that this one can be like his father, who can use soldiers like a god.

In the warehouse, Lin Fan closed an old file.

For a moment, it was difficult for him to describe his state of mind, those waves were too turbulent, washing over his heart over and over again.

In the past, he knew that Lin Xuan was very powerful, and his father was so talented that he admired him endlessly.

Except when going out to war, his father taught him personally.

Lin Fan listened to his father's teachings, such a tall man, so close to him, so kind.

But now, he looked at Zhao Lin's life and felt his strength, but he couldn't get close.

His biological father stood high and far away, out of his reach.

So, for a moment, Lin Fan wanted to ask himself, is he worthy to be Zhao Lin's son?
The wooden spear handed to him by the eldest princess contained Zhao Lin's expectations for him. His biological father hoped that he would be as brave and strong as him. Did he do it?
The documents were put back on the wooden shelf, and Lin Fan walked out of the warehouse slowly.

The sunset glow is in the sky, red is dazzling.

He thought that he needed to take a nap, as Qin Luan said, to refresh himself and face all the confusion.

Yongning Hou Mansion.

Qin Luan woke up earlier.

After her daily classes and some snacks, she stood on the wooden pier for a long time.

Before, she never had the idea of ​​"like" or even thought that this kind of state of mind would appear on her.

She is trapped by the phoenix and regards marriage as her destiny instead of a happy relationship.

At this moment, put those aside and think about it quietly...

She doesn't know what it's like to be sincere, and she doesn't know what it's like to really miss someone until she doesn't think about food or tea. All she can think about is "what kind of person is willing to get along with".

And yes, get along for a lifetime.

Qin Luan couldn't help thinking of what Qian'er said, that there is a deal and a quantity.

Whether it's important court affairs or daily trivial matters, you can listen to her carefully and talk to her sincerely.

With this alone, life will not be too difficult, or in other words, it will be much more comfortable.

It has to be said that the conclusions of the nuns in the Fuzhong are very wise in life.

From this point of view, Lin Fan is very good.

That being the case, shouldn't she take two more steps forward and try to get in touch with him more?

Get along more, know more, whether you like it or fall in love, these emotions that she has not experienced before will gradually take root and sprout in her heart.

However, she has to be careful.

This was her decision, not Lin Fan's.

She must not let Lin Fan feel "coerced".

You can't rely on "Phoenix Fate" to have such and such demands on Lin Fan.

That's unfair to Lin Fan.

After sorting it out, Qin Luan felt much more relaxed.

Back in the house, she went all the way to the inner room and dragged a wooden box out from under the bed.

Inside the box were the things Qin Luan had brought back from Tianyi Temple, and there was a small ebony box at the bottom.

The box is only the size of a palm, and it seems to be old, with wear marks on the corners.

Qin Luan opened it and took a look to confirm the condition of the things inside, then put the things back untouched.

Back at the desk, Qin Luan studied ink, took up a pen and wrote a piece of paper, and handed it to Qian'er: "You send this paper to the Shenghua Pavilion, and ask my aunt to prepare it according to the above, and send it to the Duke's mansion the day after tomorrow. Let the Lord Hui know again, the day after tomorrow, I will go to the Duke's mansion to look for him, and I will turn in from the seat where we parked the carriage last time."

Qian'er was stunned when he heard this, his head was full of questions.

After sorting it out, he picked the top one, Qian'er asked: "There are so many small and small pieces, can you arrange them properly in two days?"

"When I went to the shop a few years ago, didn't my aunt ask for some paper and ink?" Qin Luan said, "She said at the time that she was going to stock up, but now she should have almost everything. The pen and ink shop has been adjusted, and I think it's almost the same."

Qian'er agreed, and went to Shenghua Pavilion.

Liu Gong's work is comprehensive.

Lin Fan looked at the things that Fang Tian moved into his study, feeling puzzled and apprehensive.

As night falls, lights are lit everywhere.

With the arrival of the time of Xu, it was difficult for Lin Fan to concentrate, so he simply put down the book, leaned on the pillow and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

What is Qin Luan looking for him for?
What are these things prepared for?

Several thoughts tossed and turned in my mind, and even my heart beat a few beats involuntarily.

In the past few times, he was the one who went to the appointment.

This time, he was the one who was waiting for Qin Luan's arrival.

This experience is very fresh and full of expectations.

　Don't worry, Aluan and Fanfan are the kind of people who don't expect to be on the right track, but once they think about it, they make quick decisions, no matter what.
