Chapter 189 If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll smash your mouth!
The letter from Shengjing City was not delivered to Yunzhou City until the end of the year.
Since Zhang Yuanzheng came by carriage, the journey was slow and it would take more than ten days to arrive. The reward convoy also followed Zhang Yuanzheng. After all, Zhang Yuanzheng was the future official of Yunzhou City, and he was rewarding the three armies on behalf of the emperor.
The emperor's letter of commendation arrived together with the princess's letter.
Xiao Ning first picked up the princess's letter. Holding the envelope, which was thicker than her own letter, he chuckled unconsciously and then stuffed the letter into his arms.
"Whose letter is it that makes the general laugh so wantonly?"
When Xu Chong saw Xiao Ning receive the letter and had such an expression on his face, he instantly got goosebumps all over his body.
Xiao Ning glanced at him and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll smash your mouth!"
Xu Chong: “…”
Where did he talk nonsense...
Xu Chong elbowed Li Yuan in disbelief, "Tell me, did I say anything nonsense? The general just..."
Li Yuan elbowed back, "You'd better shut up."
Xu Chong: “…”
Shen Zhiyi had just seen it, and he felt a little uncomfortable inexplicably. Perhaps it was because the expression was too vulgar, which made him feel uncomfortable.
The emperor's secret letter was given to him alone and was never seen by anyone else.
But he took the secret letter to the study in the government office - now it was Xiao Ning's study.
"This is a secret letter sent to me by His Majesty."
Shen Zhiyi said, placing the secret letter on the desk and pushing it in front of Xiao Ning with two fingers.
The First Young Master's hands were also very beautiful, slender and well-proportioned, like jade.
Seeing Xiao Ning staring at his hand, Shen Zhiyi frowned, retracted his hand and hid it in his sleeve.
Xiao Ning looked up at him, opened the secret letter and read it carefully.
There was nothing special about it, just to make Shen Zhiyi stare at her.
After reading it, she threw the letter into the charcoal brazier and burned it.
Then he looked up at Shen Zhiyi with a smile, "What do you think would happen if the emperor knew that the person he chose to monitor me had defected?"
Shen Zhiyi also laughed: “I guess he’ll be very angry.”
Xiao Ning's smile faded. "You know what I want to do, but you still show me your kindness. Are you afraid that I will kill you?"
Shen Zhiyi seemed stunned when he heard this, "You still want to kill me?"
Xiao Ning: "Haven't you ever thought about this?"
Shen Zhiyi: “…”
He had thought about it, but that was in the past, and he had long since given up wanting to kill her.
He wanted to win her over, just like...
“What does it mean that Shen Jianjun didn’t say anything, but I told him the truth?”
Shen Zhiyi smiled and said, "Of course I have thought about it, but along the way, I feel that talents like you are rare, and I have long given up the idea of killing you."
"There's no deep hatred between you and me. Why not make peace?"
Xiao Ning: "...I can't make this decision."
He didn't kill her, but the original owner died because of him.
Until now, she still doesn't understand what's going on with this body, or whether the original owner is still there.
Although after Shen Zhiyi apologized, this body regained its previous feelings when it saw him.
But the original owner didn't say anything, so she couldn't make the decision for her.
Shen Zhiyi was puzzled. What did she mean by she couldn't make this decision?
If she can't do it, who can?
Is that Shang Xi?
Does Xiao Ning love him so much?
"Okay, if you have nothing else, go back. I have something else to do."
Shen Zhiyi: “…”
After Shen Zhiyi left, Xiao Ning took out the letter from his arms. He had held it against his chest for a long time, and the envelope was warm with her body temperature.
On the cover were written four large characters: "Written personally by the Prince Consort."
The princess's handwriting is so beautiful.
Every stroke of the brush has a hidden tip, and the force can be seen through the back of the paper. The strokes are connected, and the white paper is like waves, revealing a strong strength.
Her handwriting looks like a dog crawling...
Xiao Ning rarely felt his face getting hot.
It was torture for the princess to read her letter. She wrote so many words, torturing the princess all the time...
Xiao Ning scratched the table with his fingers, opened the envelope and spread out the letter paper.
There are as many as seven pages.
The princess probably wrote this letter in her style.
It starts from the parting at Changting and ends with the day when her letter arrived. It also uses vernacular, which is easy to understand.
The letter did not go into detail about the disputes in the court, but only focused on some interesting things he encountered in his daily life, as well as some things in the Marquis' Mansion, so that she could put her mind at ease.
She felt sad when she saw the last few lines.
She also wanted to satisfy him, but she always took up human resources to deliver family letters, which made her seem unable to distinguish between the primary and the secondary, and was not conducive to establishing her prestige in the army.
After reading the letter, Xiao Ning sighed softly, folded the letter and stuffed it into the envelope.
He put the envelope back into his arms, close to his heart.
On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhang Yuanzheng finally entered the Yunzhou territory with his long convoy.
Xiao Ning received the news in advance and ordered people to clean the government office again, and also ordered the kitchen to prepare a simple welcoming banquet.
Afterwards, he and Shen Zhiyi went outside the city, waiting to pick up the new official.
In the coldest days of winter, the north wind is as sharp as a knife, making people's skin chapped.
Xiao Ning was a woman after all, and she knew very well how harsh this extremely cold weather was, so she put on some facial cream before coming out.
Shen Zhiyi was in a miserable situation. Years of pampering had made his skin fair and delicate, so his cheeks were blown extremely red, and his skin and lips were cracked and even bled.
He looked at Xiao Ning, whose cheeks were only slightly red, and no other changes. He frowned and asked, "Why are you fine?"
Xiao Ning glanced at Shen Zhiyi, who looked a little funny, and laughed out loud.
His face now looks like that thing's butt hahahaha...
Laughter floats in the north wind.
Loud and crisp.
Seeing Xiao Ning laughing wantonly, Shen Zhiyi said angrily: “Stop laughing!”
Xiao Ning ignored him completely. After he had laughed enough, he said, "I have thick skin and flesh, so I'm not afraid of the wind and the sun. Unlike Shen Jianjun, he is really a delicate flower."
After saying that, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Shen Zhiyi was annoyed by the laughter and shouted several times to shut up, but no one paid any attention.
Shen Zhiyi looked at Xiao Ning who was laughing so hard that she almost turned into a pufferfish.
He didn't understand what Shang Xi saw in such a bad and dissolute person!
He waved his sleeves and walked away from Xiao Ning, and only stopped when he could no longer hear the annoying laughter. He didn't even want to look over there, but stared straight ahead.
Seeing Shen Zhiyi being driven away in anger, Li Yuan took a few steps forward and came to Xiao Ning's side. He hesitantly asked, "General, after all, Master Shen is here to supervise the army under the order of the emperor. What if you treat him like this and he gets angry and writes a letter to Your Majesty and talks nonsense?"
Xiao Ning stopped laughing and looked at Li Yuan, "He should be thinking about how to survive under our control now."
Li Yuan: “…”
That's right, they already have 30,000 troops now, so why would they be afraid of a mere Shen Zhiyi?
After figuring it out, Li Yuan glanced at Shen Zhiyi who was standing far away, and couldn't help but laugh: "A noble young master is a noble young master after all, this body of flesh is delicate, but it just blew in the wind for a while, and it became like this."
Xiao Ning also took a look and said, "Who said it wasn't?"
