Snowy Chang'an Road

Chapter 43 It’s hard to argue
  As soon as Pei Ying woke up, she saw a huge figure rushing toward her. She didn't even have time to see clearly before she screamed in horror.

Bai Zheng walked in with wash water and looked in the direction of the bed. The curtains were shaking. When he heard the princess yelling, he hurriedly put down the basin and nervously explained: "My lord and princess, I thought you were already up. I I’m going out first.”

Before leaving the house, Bai Zheng did not forget to add: "My lord, you didn't go to boxing this morning. General Zhong and General Xiao are still waiting for you."

Hearing the sound of the wooden door closing, Wei Shao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wei Shao, can you get off me first? I'm almost crushed to death by you."

At this time, Wei Shao realized that the distance between the two of them was already very close. He could hear Pei Ying's rapid breathing, could see her rising and falling chest, and saw that her fair skin was glowing with the look of someone who had just woken up. Blushing, very delicate, Wei Shao became nervous for a moment and blushed.

"Next time you want to go to bed, can you say hello in advance?"

"In emergencies, follow the authority. Normally when Bai Zheng arrives, I have already packed up. Who would have thought that I would oversleep today and almost be discovered by him."

"You are his master, what are you afraid of him for?"

"I'm not afraid of him, I'm afraid of my grandfather. He is the follower my grandfather bought for me. I'm afraid that he will catch us not sleeping in the same bed and tell my grandfather about it."

"He told my grandfather that the worst he could do was blame us. Even if they were anxious about this kind of thing, there would be nothing we could do about it."

Wei Shao sighed and said, "Pei Ying, there is something I have been hiding from you."

"what's up?"

"When we were in Chang'an, grandma would make soup for us every day. You always said that the soup had a strange smell, but for grandma's happiness, you would drink it every time."

"Yes, grandma cares about us, but I can't compliment her cooking skills."

"The soup you drank is the medicine that makes it easier for women to conceive."

Pei Ying couldn't believe what she heard.

"Not only are you drinking it, I'm drinking it too. The only difference is that the medicine made from my recipe is harder to drink than yours."

"Wei Shao, do you know that you can talk nonsense, but you can't drink medicine randomly? You have always known that my grandfather gave me medicine, why didn't you tell me?"

"I originally wanted to tell you, but I saw that you and your grandfather were getting along happily, and I was afraid that telling you would create a gap between you."

"No, we have been together for such a long time. Am I, Pei Ying, such a narrow-minded person in your heart?"

"Pei Ying, please listen to my explanation. It's not what you think."

Pei Ying ignored him, got out of bed, and went to the big bronze mirror to tidy up her clothes.

Wei Shao followed her to explain, but no matter what he said, Pei Ying just ignored him.

What made Pei Ying angry was never that she drank any medicine that made it easier to conceive, but that Wei Shao hid it from her, which obviously meant that he didn't regard her as one of his own.

Ban Zhuo watched Zhong Yang and Xiao Shen sweat profusely from practicing, and he passed by the corridor quietly.

Zhong Yang saw him sneaking around and turned to ask Xiao Shen.

"Brother Xiao, why is Marquis Guangxin so sneaky so early in the morning?"

"You did something wrong."

"What did he do?"

Xiao Shen smiled evilly, put down the sword in his hand, picked up his clothes and walked to the room.

Seeing Wei Shao's gloomy expression, Ban Zhuo thought about it again and again before speaking.

"King Peiping, are you sending a letter back to Chang'an today?"

"Ah."

"Where is the letter? Where is the letter for His Majesty? Can you let me take a look at it?"

Wei Shao didn't answer. His mind was always thinking about Pei Ying's anger.

"King of Peiping?" Ban Zhuo called him tentatively, but when he still didn't answer, Ban Zhuo called again without giving up.

"Marquis Guangxin, tell me."

"Where is the letter? Where is the letter for His Majesty? Can you let me take a look at it?"

Wei Shao came to his senses and replied: "It was too late last night, so I didn't inform you. I have decided that this time the news about Liu'an Kingdom will be sent back to Chang'an by you, Marquis Guangxin."

When Ban Zhuo heard this, he froze in place. Didn't Wei Shao push him into the fire pit?
  Seeing the troubled look on his face, Wei Shao said: "Marquis Guangxin, don't worry too much, I am doing this for your own good."

Ban Zhuo thought to himself, what a ghost, how can you not know what I have done? Can you not understand who your father is? How could you not know that my eldest sister and your mother-in-law have never dealt with each other? You just managed to grab my little braid and wanted to take care of me.

"The matter of Liu'an Kingdom was originally entrusted by His Majesty to Marquis Guangxin. Now that Liu'an Kingdom has been captured by us, you also share the credit."

"As for the King of Lujiang's escape, what can we do if his legs are still on his body? When Marquis Guangxin returns to Chang'an this time, he must explain our merits to His Majesty. I'm a stupid person, and I don't know what I say. Bian is often at a loss for words, unlike you, Marquis Guangxin, who is eloquent and eloquent. I have thought about it again and again, and it is safest to leave this matter to you, both public and private."

After listening to what he said a lot, Ban Zhuo felt that the more obedient he was, the more wrong he sounded. Was Wei Shao praising himself?
  However, listening to his analysis, Ban Zhuo also agreed with him. It would be most appropriate for him to return to Chang'an for this matter. What's more, it has been more than a month since he left here. He misses the beauties in his house very much and wants to return to Chang'an. My heart is already ready to move.

"Okay, since it is arranged by the King of Peking, Ban Zhuo will not hesitate to die."

"Marquis Guangxin is a smart man. You don't need me to teach you what to say and what not to say when meeting His Majesty."

"No need. Your Majesty is brave and brave, and he cares for the people. He was able to conquer the two countries of Tao and Lu'an without even using a single soldier. I will faithfully report these achievements to Your Majesty."

"Then there is Marquis Lao Guangxin."

Watching him leave happily, Wei Shao seemed to gradually understand what the strengths of a person like Ban Zhuo were.

After handling the matter, Wei Shao came to the courtyard.

"Bai Zheng, where is the princess?"

Bai Zheng shook his head.

"Brother Xiao, have you met your sister-in-law?"

"What? Did you two have a fight?"

"."

"Brother Zhong, have you met your siblings?"

"She seems to have gone out."

Hearing this, Wei Shao looked in the direction of the gate. He suddenly felt that something was wrong. When he entered the city last night, the city was very strange. How could she dare to go out.

"She alone?"

Zhong Yang thought for a moment and said, "Yes."

Wei Shao turned to look at Bai Zheng, his tone obviously filled with reproach.

"Why don't you follow the princess?"

In the doubtful eyes of everyone, Wei Shao rushed out the door, mounted his horse and whipped away.

Zhong Yang looked at Xiao Shen doubtfully.

"Did Brother Wei take the wrong medicine today? Doesn't he know that our people are everywhere in this city?"

Xiao Shen smiled and said, "He took the medicine given by his sister-in-law."

"What? Did my siblings drug him? What drug did they drug him?"

Zhong Yang hurriedly asked, but Xiao Shen just smiled and waved, turned and left.
