After Shi Lei was gone, Gu Suier stayed for a while before returning to the back house.

Shi Lei talked about the scene of Boye City, which she thought was not easy.

Shi Lei actually knelt down and begged herself, she never thought that there would be this day.

People like him begged herself for the soldiers of Boye City, and she felt that she could not bear this kneeling.

Shi Lei said that if there is no grain to borrow, some soldiers in Boye City will starve to death.

She felt sad when she thought about it.

But how should she bring this up to Xiao Heng? After all, there is not enough food on her side. What if the big guys borrowed this and that?

Don't make Xiao Heng embarrassed because of Shi Lei.

But on Shi Lei's side, he said pitifully. He begged himself this way, and it was for the lives of those soldiers. How could he not agree?

Gu Suier struggled for a while, and Xiao Heng came back in the evening.

After Xiao Heng came back, he had dinner, and after washing himself, he began to read a letter before the case.

He looked at it seriously, and occasionally stopped to mark something.

Gu Suier wanted to mention it with him, to see if he could accommodate Shi Lei's affairs, but when she remembered that he seemed to be a little uncomfortable with Shi Lei's affairs, she was afraid that she would make him uncomfortable for nothing. Go down.

She was so entangled and entangled, when Xiao Heng had packed up her official documents and was about to go to bed, she was still thinking about it.

"Hey!" She sighed and decided to force herself not to think about it.

The fact that Shi Lei said that the soldiers in Boye City had no food was really pitiful, but she couldn't help it. She shouldn't embarrass Xiao Heng with these things.

Xiao Heng knew that the grain she could use under her hand was limited, so how could she lend it to everyone? Boye City is not only in trouble, but there are others.

She just didn't know the others.

She persuaded herself so desperately, as if she could safely ignore these things, but after all, she couldn't get through with her conscience, so that after lying on the couch, she was still frowning.

Xiao Heng has not been in Jingyang for the past few days. Now that he came back and went to bed, he naturally got close.

When Xiao Heng hugged her to get close, she was absent.

Later, for some reason, she felt a pain in her neck and couldn't help but whisper.

Xiao Heng warned in a dumb voice, "What are you thinking about?"

Gu Suier touched her sore neck with tears in her tears: "I didn't think about anything..."

Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows and hummed, "Are you thinking of other men?"

Gu Suier shook her head quickly and vigorously: "No, no, how could it be possible! How could I miss other men!"

Of course she knew the man's mind, and mentioning other men at this time would be utterly desperate.

When Xiao Heng heard it, she seemed satisfied, and her collarbone was printed on her lips.

He moved very hard tonight.

Gu Suier remembered the sound and force of the carp slamming into the water after hitting it hard.

At the beginning, she still remembered the starvation of Boye City soldiers. Later, in the wind and waves he brought up, she couldn't help but immerse herself in it, and even began to hum in a low voice.

Xiao Heng sweated like rain, dripping freely, and after a long time, he stopped suddenly.

Gu Suier lay on his chest contentedly, half-closed her eyes lazily, reminiscing about the feeling of still walking inside.

At this moment, Xiao Heng asked in a dumb voice, "Shi Lei is looking for you today?"

When she heard it, she knew that she couldn't hide it, so she had to tell her honestly.

"When I went to see him, I was afraid of your misunderstanding, so I brought two maids with me. Who knew he would kneel down at me when he saw me, beg me for help, let me talk to you, but, but... I also know you are embarrassed!"

Xiao Heng turned his face and watched Gu Suier muttering so, frowning, frowning: "I can't agree to him and make you embarrassed, but I—"

Xiao Heng's fingers fell on her forehead and helped her to smooth her frowning eyebrows: "You can't bear it, don't you listen to him?"

Gu Suier nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, but I didn't really have to agree to him, so I accepted him and left."

After she said this, Xiao Heng lay there with his hands behind his head, looking at the top of the tent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Gu Suier peeped at him, a little confused.

But now she has a guilty conscience. She is afraid that Xiao Heng will be unhappy to see Shi Lei alone, so she doesn't dare to ask anything.

"Shi Lei, I may still think of you in my heart, but I know what you are thinking, it is nothing, I will not be angry because of this." Xiao Heng said suddenly.

"Yeah, I thought so too..." Gu Suier said hurriedly, "How many years ago it was. In the past few years, I have never thought about this person!"

Xiao Heng said again: "As for food--"

Gu Suier's heart skipped a beat: "Food, is it to help or not to help?"

Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows: "Do you like me to help or not?"

Gu Suier: "..."

Xiao Heng said calmly: "To be honest."

Gu Suier bit her lip and said helplessly; "Of course I am looking forward to your help. I know that there may be more than one Boye City lacking food, but those I have not heard, I have not heard, and I don’t know. Pretend not, now Shi Lei told me that Boye City lacks food and the soldiers there eat bark. When I listened, my heart felt uncomfortable. I hope you can help him, but it is not because of him. I think about Boye’s side. will--"

She was talking, but Xiao Heng said, "Then give them food."

When Gu Suier heard this, she couldn't believe it: "Huh? Really?"

Xiao Heng: "Yes."

Gu Suier started to be very happy, but after another thought, she felt wrong again: "Then do we have enough food?"

Xiao Heng turned sideways and lowered his head slightly, staring at the woman in his arms.

After passing by, her face was blushing and her eyes were as moving as black pearls moisturized in mercury. She looked at herself worriedly, afraid that the soldiers in Jingyang City would have no food to eat.

He knew that she was a pure-hearted woman and could not hear anyone suffer.

He raised his hand and gently touched the bangs that half covered her smooth forehead, and said dumbly: "It's okay, it's enough now."

Gu Suier didn't understand, and said blankly, "Why is it enough now?"

Xiao Heng looked at her like this, smiled, and kissed her on the cheek: "Didn't I receive a letter today? I was reading it tonight, and I wrote a reply."

Gu Suier thought about it, it seemed to be true, but she was entangled in Shi Lei's request for grain, so she didn't care too much.

"That letter came from Yanjing City, and it mentioned the transportation of a large amount of military payments to the border area."

"It means there will be a lot of food?" Gu Suier's dark eyes burst with joy.

"Yes." Xiao Heng couldn't help kissing her eyes: "Now, you don't have to frown here anymore."

"You, why didn't you say it earlier!"

Gu Suier was so happy that she almost sat up: "Great! Don't worry now!"

Xiao Heng looked at her like this, raised his eyebrows, and said indifferently: "Look at you who are happy, but those who don't know think you are the general who cares about the country and the people."

Gu Suier laughed out loud and lay down happily: "I don't care what I am, and don't worry about the country or the people. I just hope that everyone is not hungry!"

As Xiao Heng said, the large amount of rations issued by the imperial court is coming soon, and the rations for a dozen or so city guards at the border can be resolved by then. As long as you save some food, it is not difficult to cook for a month or two.

After these two months, the people in the border area can get their new grains, and then they can exchange the food for the people with the military salaries they have accumulated in their hands. This pass is over.

But before that, Xiao Heng still distributed the food accumulated in Jingyangcheng to the guards of the surrounding cities, so that they could tide over the immediate difficulties and wait until the court's rations.

Shi Lei also got some food for Boye City. He was naturally grateful. Before he left, he had to come over and thank Gu Suier again.

However, Gu Suier didn't go to see him this time, just let the people underneath give a message, wishing him a bright future.

After receiving this message, Shi Lei froze for a while in the flower hall, squatting there, covering his face, not knowing whether it was crying or something, and finally slumped his shoulders and left.

What is lost is lost after all.

Even if I regret it later, I can't find it back.

He thought he could kill a carbine and become the hero of his delicate and lovely little fiancee in the past, saving her from fire and water, but in fact he may need to save himself.

As for Xiao Heng and Gu Suier, neither of them mentioned Shi Lei again.

For the two of them, Shi Lei was nothing more than a small episode, not worth mentioning.

Even though they were a little jealous, they couldn't trust each other so much that no one would think much about it.

The days at the border pass were just like that, day after day, as sweet and smooth as water.

In the late autumn of the following year, A Chen was already five years old and knew how to ride a horse by himself, and Xiao Awan was slowly learning to walk with her little butt. Gu Suier had already been used to all kinds of customs here, she liked After drinking the goat's milk here, I also learned to cook lamb with the weird condiments here.

She thought that her life would go on like this, who knew that this day, Xiao Heng received the imperial decree from the court.

The imperial edict ordered Xiao Heng to return to Yanjing City on another day.

"Go back to Yanjing City?" Ah Chen still has an impression of Yanjing City: "Then go back, I miss Grandpa Emperor too!"

"Yan...Yancheng?" Xiao Awan tilted her head and wondered: "Yanyancheng!"

where is that?
