Time flies, and more than half a month has passed in a blink of an eye.

A dozen or so riders drove away from the city with several carriages, until they arrived at the wilderness on the outskirts of the city. Finally, the group stopped, and the riders dismounted from their horses one after another.

Before the carriage came to a complete stop, a green figure jumped off the carriage, galloped towards the group of people who dismounted from the horse, and rushed into the arms of one of them without hesitation.

"It's the first time you're on the battlefield, remember not to be arrogant, and remember that my child and I are at home waiting for you to return safely."

Shen Zheng stretched out his hand and stroked Zhao Jingwan's back tenderly. Although he had heard these words for countless times these days, he still answered very patiently: "Okay, everything in the family and the children have to take care of you. You have to take care of yourself too."

Zhao Jingwan buried her head in Shen Zheng's arms, and nodded in agreement with a choked voice.

Marquis Changxing stretched out his hands to cover his eyes, looking blind: "Look, look, your father-in-law and I are still standing next to each other, what's so decent about hugging."

Zhao Jingwan withdrew from Shen Zheng's arms and sniffed: "Didn't you cover your eyes, just pretend you didn't see it?"

Changxing Hou raised his beard when he heard this, and immediately shook his head helplessly, cupping his fists at Ning Guohou who was beside him and said, "My in-laws are sorry, this child is spoiled by her mother, please don't mind."

Ning Guohou Shen Xing stroked his long beard, and looked at Zhao Jingwan lovingly: "I can only be happy that the children have a good relationship, so I don't care about anything."

Marquis Changxing was about to reply with a few polite words, but from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Ning Guohou's complexion suddenly darkening.

Just as he was wondering, Shen Xing yelled at Shen Zheng: "Stinky boy, come here." After finishing speaking, he walked towards the open space next to him.

Shen Zheng was stiffened by the yelling, and followed behind Shen Xing with an embarrassing expression.

Suddenly, Shen Xing stopped, turned his head and looked at Gu Yu, who had just got off the carriage not far away, and said, "Zicong is also here."

Qi Qingxi watched Gu Yu nodded to herself and then walked towards Shen's father and son, while she went in the direction of Zhao Jingwan.

A few days ago, the Northeast Army sent someone to report that some conflicts had occurred between the border guards and the Wajinbian Army for some unknown reason.

It is said that the guard at Wajin's side was a general who visited Dayu with the mission at that time. He said that if the misunderstanding is to be resolved, Dayu must send an acquaintance to talk to him in detail.

In normal times, Li Qiming wouldn't take this little general Wajin seriously, and even sent someone to discuss it in detail, just call him directly.

But now Li Qiming is clearly aware that the war with the Tatars in the northwest is about to break out, but he has concealed this matter. If there is another dispute on Wajin's side at this time, the consequences will not be something he can resist at all.

Gu Yu is at home now, and Qi Qingxi heard about what happened in the court hall from his uncle Li Wenkang.

It is said that Li Qiming mentioned this matter in court that day, and bluntly hoped that some courtiers would stand up to share his worries.

When the courtiers heard the word Wa Jin, they did not know who whispered about the incident that the Wa Jin mission went to Gu Yu's residence to make trouble and killed people in the street not long ago.

All the courtiers exchanged glances, and it was obvious that the people of Wajin were not easy to get along with, and it was unlucky for whoever went to this negotiation.

Li Qiming waited for a long time but no one answered him, his expression became more and more impatient.

At this time, Shen Zheng stood up righteously, expressing his willingness to go, Li Qiming stared at Shen Zheng for a long time, but suddenly hesitated again.

Presumably Li Qiming went back to the mansion to discuss with his staff, and after weighing it, he agreed to Shen Zheng's request.

That's why today they went out of the city to send Shen Zheng on a long journey.

Qi Qingxi reached out and handed Zhao Jingwan a handkerchief to wipe away her tears.

She comforted her in a soft voice: "Cousin-in-law, don't cry anymore. Cousin Zheng is going away to take up his post. If you keep crying like this, how can he leave with peace of mind."

Zhao Jingwan took the veil, wiped her tears and said: "I know, but I just can't control myself. The child is only half a month old, and his father is going to work abroad. I don't know when he will be back after this trip, and In case something happens to the border, his father will go to the battlefield."

The more Zhao Jingwan wiped away tears, the more she cried.

Zhao's father, Chang Xinghou, stared at Zhao Jingwan with his waist in his waist: "You little girl, your father didn't see you shed a few tears when he left Beijing to go to the battlefield with real swords and guns. That kid went to Wa Golden Border, now that we have repaired with Wajinguo, his kid may not have the opportunity to go up and wield knives and guns, so you start crying right now?"

Marquis Changxing's words were apparently reprimanding his daughter, but in fact, he was telling his daughter that the border was safe, so that she didn't have to worry about scaring herself.

Sure enough, Zhao Jingwan was really comforted by knowing her daughter Mo Ruofu: "Father is right, we and Wa Jin will not fight, Shen Zheng is at most going to train soldiers..."

While talking, Zhao Jingwan started to cry again: "It's just military training, you can do it in the capital, why do you have to go so far away?"

Marquis Changxing frowned suddenly, and spoke in a harsh voice: "Nonsense, what do you think is the reason why Ningguohou's mansion can stand in Dayu for generations of honor? That is the real sword of the ancestors of Ningguohou's mansion for generations. Real guns are made to defend the country on the battlefield."

Marquis Changxing sighed: "As the son of Ningguo Marquis, how could Shen Zheng abandon his family and country for the sake of his children's selfishness, and fall into the prestige of his ancestors. You yourself were born in a general family, how can you not even understand such a simple truth."

Zhao Jingwan finally stopped crying after hearing her father's stern words, but she also froze in place, looking a little at a loss.

Qi Qingxi hurriedly stood up to smooth things over. She put her arms around Zhao Jingwan's shoulders and looked at Chang Xinghou: "Biao sister-in-law is a child raised by her uncle, so she understands these principles. Now it's just a moment of concern and chaos will result, isn't it, cousin?"

Zhao Jingwan picked up the handkerchief and wiped away the wet tears on her face, then hummed with grievance.

Marquis Changxing sighed in his heart, regretting that his tone was too harsh, and wanted to say a few soft words, but the three of Shen Xing on the other end came over after finishing the conversation, so he had no choice but to give up.

Marquis Changxing also explained to Shen Zheng as his father-in-law, and then everyone walked aside and gave the rest of the time to the young couple to talk.

Qi Qingxi stood a little far away and seemed to cry again when she heard Zhao Jingwan.

She leaned slightly and whispered to Gu Yu who was standing behind her: "It seems that Cousin Zheng didn't tell Cousin-in-law about your plan, and Cousin-in-law cried all the way because she was worried about Cousin Zheng."

"I guess I don't want my cousin to think too much about it. My cousin's personality is too straightforward, and the relationship between the mother clan is too complicated. The less people know about this, the safer my cousin will be." Gu Yu's voice came from behind her.

Qi Qingxi couldn't help giving Gu Yu a blank look: "What kind of temperament is too open, and the relationship between mother and family is complicated. Don't you just want to say that you are afraid that your cousin will not be able to hide the matter from your relatives? It will spoil your business."

Gu Yu smiled softly: "I have always said that Madam is extremely intelligent."

After sending Shen Zheng away, it was time to start the next move.
