On the day of the granted marriage, the daughter of a general wept and was reborn!

But as soon as he finished speaking, General Shen frowned: "Tang'er, what do you mean?"

Shen Wantang smiled calmly and patted her father's arm to comfort him: "Don't worry, your daughter has her own way."

He wanted to continue doing some things in the camp, but Shen Wantang couldn't stand his father's behavior, so he took his father's arm and led him out of the camp.

"Don't worry, my daughter will do what she says." Shen Wantang persuaded earnestly.

But General Shen was still worried and repeatedly broke free from his daughter's hand: "What can you do? Do you want my daughter to run up and mediate with those old foxes, and I, an old father, will just sit back and enjoy the result?"

"My daughter has made military achievements and received rewards from the emperor. Could it be that she is still afraid of them?"

Shen Wantang joked.

"Shen Wantang." As soon as the words fell, General Shen's face turned cold, "Don't be proud of your small military achievements. Do you know how many eyes are staring at our Shen family in the court?"

Shen Wantang was slightly stunned, looking at his father in a daze.

In the past, my father was full of vigor and vitality on the battlefield. Even if he encountered any difficulties, he would just sleep for a while and get up the next day to continue solving them.

But now, I have come to Beijing and become an official there, and now I have a lot of white hair on my head.

Gradually, her father's words became a little vague in her ears. She suddenly grabbed her father's hand and said, "Dad, let me tell you slowly."

After returning to the room, Shen Wantang told his father everything about Xia Huai'en's plan to reform the law.

At first, General Shen thought it was nonsense and waved his hands repeatedly.

"Father, reform is the general trend. Even if Xia Huai'en hadn't proposed it, someone else would have proposed it." Shen Wantang said slowly, "If we can help Xia Huai'en promote reform, we will be riding on this fast horse, and the benefits will outweigh the disadvantages in the future."

After he finished speaking, General Shen seemed to be thinking about something.

"When the emperor ascended the throne, my Shen family was obliged to help in the war. Lu Mingfeng came to the court to help. But the difference between us and Lu Mingfeng is that my Shen family only supported the fifth prince in the past. Now there is only one emperor, but Lu Mingfeng is just a fence-sitter. No matter who is in power, he will always stand on the side of the powerful. His interests are always for himself."

Shen Wantang analyzed.

This is true. If we really talk about background, Lu Mingfeng first supported Prince Duanxian, and later supported the eldest prince. After the eldest prince's whereabouts were unknown, he turned around and ran to the fifth prince Ji Xunchuan.

"Father, do you still remember the family motto of our Shen family?" Shen Wantang slowly sat down.

How could he not remember?

In the ancestral hall, a golden plaque with the words "Patriotism and Loyalty to the Emperor" hangs high, and the Shen family has been like this for generations.

"The current reform is to make the people better off and to make the world a better place." Shen Wantang continued.

After he finished speaking, General Shen's sinister eyes slowly dissipated.

The snow outside stopped for a moment, and the carriage set off again.

"Now when you go back, you can also instruct the kitchen to make your favorite dishes." General Shen looked at his daughter beside him, the doting in his eyes could not be hidden.

Shen Wantang snuggled up to her father: "With my father by my side, even if I eat bran or vegetables, it can be considered delicious food."

When I returned to the mansion, the lanterns had already been hung high.

Upon hearing that the master had returned, Aunt Liu hurried over.

"Master! You are finally back. Tang'er is indeed useful. A few days ago, I sent people to invite you for a long time, but failed to invite you back." Looking at Shen Wantang beside her, there was a hint of sourness in Aunt Liu's words.

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about, Auntie? How can father come back if no one invites him?"

As she finished speaking, the smile on Aunt Liu's face froze.

A few days ago, Aunt Liu was concentrating on finding a good son-in-law, so she had no spare time to take care of General Shen's affairs.

General Shen frowned slightly and said, "Alright, today is New Year's Eve, so don't make these unpleasant things happen."

As it got darker, everyone gathered in the front hall.

General Shen raised his glass and said: "May the world enjoy good weather and good harvests in the coming year, and the people live in peace and happiness."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of firecrackers was heard outside.

"Father, I wish you a long and healthy life." Shen Ying stood up and said.

Looking at Shen Ying, General Shen smiled, raised his wine cup, and drank it all in one gulp.

Aunt Liu looked at her daughter with pride.

Looking at Aunt Liu, Shen Wantang's eyes flashed with a barely detectable envy - if her mother were still alive, she would probably look at her the same way.

Suddenly, she regained her composure, raised her wine cup and looked at her father: "Father, Tang'er wishes you a clear mind and strong bones, and from now on you will smile in the spring breeze and live a long-lived immortal in the world."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of firecrackers outside came in again.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about these empty things, just start eating." General Shen smiled calmly and spoke.

There are still children playing on the streets.

One of them, with the New Year's money just given by his elders, bought fireworks, held up the flame with his little hands, lit the fuse, then covered his ears and hurriedly ran aside.

The fireworks soared into the sky and suddenly bloomed in the air.

"Sir, why are you on the roof again, wearing so little?"

In the mansion, the deputy general searched for Cen Xiao for a long time but still couldn't see him. The deputy general looked up and saw Cen Xiao on the roof holding a wine jug.

Then he also climbed onto the roof.

"Why did you drink so much again? The servants have already prepared the New Year's Eve dinner." The deputy general took the wine jug from Cen Xiao's hand and said helplessly.

"My parents, brothers and sisters are not in the capital, so it's better not to eat the New Year's Eve dinner."

Cen Xiao waved his hand, then lay down on the roof, watching the fireworks, feeling a little lonely.

The deputy general was a little unhappy, frowning slightly: "Sir, I thought you already regarded me as a family member."

After he finished speaking, Cen Xiao raised his head, looked at the deputy general, and laughed helplessly: "You and I are bosom friends who have been through life and death together. We are brothers, and the relationship between us and family members is naturally different."

Hearing this, the deputy general finally smiled.

"I heard that the New Year celebrations in Beijing are very lively, and there is no curfew these days. Why don't we go to the streets and take a look later?"

The excitement in the deputy general's eyes was about to overflow.

It’s actually a good method.

"By the way, let's go and see if there are any other good wines in the capital."

Cen Xiao agreed immediately, stood up and jumped down.

Even though he had drunk a lot of wine, Cen Xiao was still as light as a swallow.

The deputy general shook his head helplessly: "You are probably a wine fairy who has come down to earth, thinking about drinking all day long."

Forget it, he’s my own young master, what else can I do?
