It's also early summer, and the cool west wind is still steep. The capital city, even in the spring grass lake, has the lake wind neutralization, but also has the obvious manic meaning.
Only when the cicadas started to sing, they were all stuck by Wei Changying, so as not to disturb everyone.
But even without the cicada's noise, this summer, for the royal family and nobles who are used to being pampered, they are doomed to be sad.
Because last winter, the imperial capital was besieged by soldiers and could not go out of the city to dig ice for storage. Even if someone takes some ice in their garden, it will be clear water in Rong's burning house after the city is broken.
The summer heat of the imperial capital is no less than that of the south. If there is no cool room, it is very sad to move to the waterside pavilion and other places. Especially now, the injuries in other hospitals are not good. Shen Shuguang and other children are still young. They have been tossed when they broke through the siege before. Now they are suffering from the heat again, which is really not reassuring.
However, ice is heavy and hard to transport. It's not easy to buy from anywhere else.
This worry became more and more serious when Wei Changying went to visit her husband in the city on this day.
In a hurry, it was renovated to serve as a very important part of the six houses.
As Shen zangfeng is now in the middle of the court, there is only one fighting room in this yamen for exclusive use.
The room was full of official files. It was Chenzhong when Wei Changying went in. At that time, the dew by chuncaohu lake was not dry, but Shen zangfeng's Lapel was already sweaty. Not far behind him lay a wooden frame, a gold basin, and a white hemp pad. The water was slightly turbid. It was obvious that Shen Zang Feng had washed his hands or face with it more than once.
"Why hasn't anyone changed the water?" Wei Changying sighed and waved to the husband who was about to ask about his intention. "It's not very urgent. I'll change a basin of water for you first."
"Now I'm short of hands. Shen dieI asked me to send me to work." At this time, Shen zangfeng said that there was no too much opportunity in daily life. He said in a hurry, and immediately picked up the pen to quickly review the official documents.
Wei Changying looks at him for fear of delaying the scene for a moment, sighs secretly, pulls up his sleeve and goes out with a basin behind him.
At the gate, Huang and others didn't enter because the fighting room was small and the couple had something to say. Before Wei Changying entered the door, he came out and carried the basin himself. He couldn't help but stay.
Or Huang's reaction was the fastest. He hurriedly went up to take over the basin and asked, "is that it?"
"Wash that pad and get some fresh water." Wei Chang Ying frowned. "My husband is short of hands, and there is no one to change the basin of water."
Although Shen zangfeng is not fastidious to the point of being clean, his growing experience since he was born also predestined his cleanness. Before the change of the capital, let alone the water color is obviously turbid. He will not continue to wash his hands after washing his face once, but will let people make another basin clean.
But then again, once upon a time, Wei Changying, a wife who was pampered by her husband and grew up, was given a basin of water at most. How could she carry the basin herself?
Thinking of this, Wei Changying laughs and laughs: the so-called fastidiousness is just the status of self-reliance in a good situation. When he is really embarrassed, it is vain to be picky.
Huang quickly found the well, rinsed the pad and changed the water.
Wei Changying takes over, takes it in, wrists a handkerchief, stands behind Shen Cangfeng, waits for him to approve a official document, stops writing for a while, just wipes his forehead and face for him, and says: "or I will send two more people to serve you? It 's Shen Dieyi. He' s been sent out like this. You don 't even have a inker here. "
"No need." Shen zangfeng closed his eyes and took a rest. He said with fatigue, "it's an accident to send Shen dieI out today. Some soldiers in Xiliang army have clashed with Qingzhou army. It's said that things are not small, even my uncles know it. That's why I sent Shen dieI to see what's going on? Usually he will take care of me here. "
After a pause, he said, "you can see that I have a lot of official documents here. Although the Wei Dynasty is now very rotten, I know a lot of things without mentioning the outside. But there are some things that are inconvenient for outsiders to know. Although we have gathered some old servants to serve us now, there is nothing left in our old heart Now there are many places to employ people, so it's just to make do with them. "
Wei Changying sighed, saw that he had wiped his face, turned around and threw the pad back into the basin, and then extended his fingers to gently press his temples on both sides. Although she didn't learn the skill of serving people, Shen Zang Feng was very tired from working day after day. She kneaded it casually and felt very relieved.
"How could Xiliang army and Qingzhou army conflict?" Since it's not easy to add people to serve Shen zangfeng, Ying Shunkou, the captain of Wei, asks why Shen dieI is not here. The Shen family and the Su family are two generations of in laws. Su Xiuming and Su Xiuwei are the uncles of Shen Cangfeng's brothers. It's said that there should be no conflict between the Xiliang army and the Qingzhou army even if they can't be close to each other!
Now, of course, the two armies add up to several hundred thousand people, so many of whom are stationed in such places in the capital. Don't talk about each other. I'm afraid that there will be dozens or hundreds of conflicts every day among my colleagues in the army. However, it's impossible for these arrogant soldiers not to know the relationship between the Shen and Su families. How can they give the manager some face?In addition, when Shen zangfeng said that the Xiliang army was in front of him, Wei Changying doubted that someone in the Shen family had done it on purpose? It is intended to stir up conflicts between the border forces, not only to destroy the relationship between Shen zangfeng and Su's nephew, but also to let Shen zangfeng busy with this matter and not to care about Xiliang.
…… Is it in Xiliang that they have already started?
Wei Changying frowned slightly and rubbed her husband's strength a little bit.
"It's said to have been caused by a quarrel." Shen didn't know if he had seen many such things or had taken countermeasures. His brow was tired and clear, and his tone was light and careless. "Master soldier, I have a big temper. I think I'm busy with politics these days, and my military discipline is relaxed."
"You want to punish those people of Xiliang army?" When Wei Changying asked this question, he remembered that his mother's family had told him, "remember your duty when you are a woman. Don't ask if your husband and son-in-law don't tell you what's ahead." she was thinking about whether to say something else and turn the subject off. Shen Zanfeng had already replied, "I don't know how to deal with it until Shen dieI report back. But unless the Xiliang army is too angry, it will take some time to punish it. Now it's important to protect them. "
"Will the uncles look ugly?" In fact, Wei Changying was also in favor of the escort. She was not so gentle and tolerant. Since she was Shen's wife, Xiliang army was Shen's private army. No matter why those Xiliang soldiers clashed with Qingzhou army, she preferred Xiliang army.
But when Shen zangfeng said that, he had some doubts.
"Uncles are elders and always generous." Shen zangfeng opened his eyes, gently pushed her finger away and said, "let's have a rest. I'm much better now."
Wei Changying saw that he was really in spirits, so he went around to the outside table and sat down. He thought, "of course, both uncles are our elders."
In this way, Shen zangfeng knew that his wife understood the meaning of his words, and smiled lightly: "no matter what, there is no way back or step for us to do this for the younger generation."
Stationed in the capital and the capital, the commander of Xiliang army is Shen zangfeng, the commander of Qingzhou army is Su Xiuming, and the two are just nephews. Originally, Shen zangfeng lowered Su Xiuming's generation. If there was a conflict between the servants of the two families, it would be appropriate for him to be a nephew and let his uncle know. Others will also say that Shen zangfeng is filial and sensible, and will never laugh at his weakness and cowardice.
But the conflict is that the two armies are different.
The so-called military is the power of the general and the courage of the soldiers.
As Su Xiuming's nephew or dingguogong, Shen zangfeng can give in to the Su family. But as the commander of the 300000 Xiliang army, he can't lower his head!
Because he bowed his head, it means that Xiliang army bowed its head in front of Qingzhou army. In this way, Xiliang army will be more and more despised by Qingzhou army. Not only that, the manager and the people bow their heads, how can the lower generals not be affected?
Morale is low. It is very lethal for any army to fight.
Especially now when the army is in a state of chaos, Xiliang soldiers still follow Shen zangfeng all the way to the capital to fight. If their morale is weakened, there will be deserters.
At that time, it will be a matter of shaking the heart of the army.
On the contrary, the Su family can take this step back.
Because Shen zangfeng is a junior, he himself is a head lower than Su Xiuming, and he shows cowardice when he retreats. As an elder, Su Xiuming's step back does not have much influence because the two families have not had a bad relationship at the moment and they have had a good relationship before.
But there is another problem here. Although Su Xiuming is the commander of the military in Qingzhou, Su Xiuwei and Su Yu are also in the army. Sanfang and his son have no evidence to expose Su Xiuming's usurpation of the throne. However, the people left behind by Su Pingzhan also have a place in the military, which Su Xiuming can not ignore.
Wei Changying has also noticed the delicate relationship between Su family's big room and three rooms. After all, she listened to her aunt Wei Zhengyin and Su Pingzhan clearly designated three rooms to take over the Fufeng hall. Now the Su family is headed by Su Xiuming
Su Xiuming and Su Xiuwei are still in the face of brotherhood at the moment, but in private they have obviously begun to fight. However, when there is a conflict between Xiliang army and Qingzhou army, they may be caught by these two uncles.
Obviously, no matter what Su Xiuming does, Su Xiuwei will propose the opposite approach. On the other hand, Su Xiuwei first said how to deal with it, and Su Xiuming would immediately oppose it.
“…… Are they the people from Xiliang? " If so, is this conflict caused by a quarrel, and why does this quarrel happen to be so big Wei Changying sighed, "is it uncle or not?"
She doesn't want to be the third uncle from the heart. Although she is not familiar with Su Xiuwei, who is both uncle and uncle, Su Yu dance is her own cousin! Reading the kindness of aunt Wei Zhengyin, Wei Changying doesn't want to be an enemy with this cousin.
But she also knows that many times, people can't help themselves.
