The reason why he asked so confidently was that when Pei Yu and the people around him saw him, there was no strange expression on their faces, which proved that his brother was fine.
Pei Yu was in a very good mood after enjoying the care and affection of his beloved.
"His injuries have healed, and he's doing some simple drills in the barracks. I've sent someone to notify him, and he'll be here soon."
"That's good."
No one asked any other questions. How could he be captured alive without any injuries? With the eldest brother's ability, they must have used some dirty tricks to catch him. Now it was good enough that he could be rescued safely. It was good enough.
"Ayu, thank you."
Pei Yu looked at his serious expression and took her hand. "Ali, you don't have to thank me. Even if it was someone else, I would have saved them."
"You don't know, the moment I heard that my eldest brother was captured alive, I was very scared."
As for what he was afraid of, he didn't say it, but both of them knew it.
To be honest, the moment she received the letter, Chen Li was scared. She didn't think that far at the time. Now that she has calmed down and listened to what he said, if her eldest brother really got into trouble and left, then there might be no result for her and Pei Yu.
"Okay, the black eye under your eye can't be covered anymore, take a rest first."
"good."
Pei Yu was really tired. He had been tense to begin with, and after Shen Jingyuan got into trouble, he became even more tense. In addition, he was still injured and had not recovered yet. He was exhausted and fell asleep while holding Shen Li's hand.
"Miss Shen, Captain Shen is here."
An Liu stood at the door, without raising his head, and spoke softly.
Chen Li released the hand that was holding Pei Yu, and now she had fallen into a deep sleep.
Shen Jingyuan was already waiting in the reception room in Pei Yu's yard. When he saw Shen Li coming out, he stood up excitedly with a slightly silly smile on his face.
"Little sister, why are you here?"
God knows how shocked he was when he heard the visitor say that his younger sister was coming. He thought they were still playing a trick on him. Later, when he saw the prince's secret guards, he believed it.
“Big Brother!”
Looking at my elder brother who has become noticeably thinner and the scars on his face, it would be a lie to say I don't feel bad. However, these are all his military achievements, and his current position was obtained through his own efforts.
Shen Jingyuan had a silly smile on his face, “It’s been a while since we last met, and A-Li is beautiful again.”
Chen Li covered her mouth and laughed. He was indeed the eldest brother, and his praise was so sincere.
"Brother, I heard from A Yu that you were missing. I was worried, so I came to check on you."
Shen Jingyuan looked at her and asked cautiously: "Ali, does my family know about this?"
"I don't know. I haven't told my parents or my sister-in-law. Don't worry, brother."
I originally wanted to tease him, but when I saw the uneasy look on his face, I thought better of it. What if my big brother started crying, I wouldn't be able to comfort him.
"That's good, that's good." Shen Jingyuan's face was full of relief. He reached out and patted his little sister's shoulder. "Thank you, little sister."
Chen Li poured a basin of cold water on him, "Brother, don't be too happy too soon. I know that from the moment you put on the military uniform, you are destined to be accompanied by danger, but you must protect yourself. Next time this happens, I will tell my parents the truth."
"Okay, big brother got it."
Next, Chen Li told him about the recent situation at home, and the two of them chatted for a long time.
"Ali, how is the prince's injury?"
"It's okay, but the wound is quite special, so it will take some time."
Shen Jingyuan patted his chest thankfully, “That’s good, that’s good. If something happens to Wang Ye, the army will be in chaos.”
"A-Li, do you know how powerful the prince is in battle? Even in Dingzhou City, as soon as the prince goes out, the people are so happy to see him that they are not afraid even if he has a cold face. Isn't it strange?"
When he saw his eldest brother talking about Pei Yu, his face was full of admiration. Perhaps his eldest brother himself had not noticed that he now regarded Pei Yu as his idol.
"Ali, one day, I want to be like the prince."
"Okay, then come on, big brother!"
The brother and sister smiled at each other, one face showing longing for the future, the other face full of relief.
"Ali, how long will you stay this time?"
"I may not be able to stay for long. I told my parents that I was going to the capital to do some business. I've been out for half a month already, and including the time I spent returning home, it's already a month. I can only stay for another month at most, and then I have to go back."
Shen Jingyuan nodded, “It’s okay to go back. The city is safe, but it’s a little dangerous outside the city. Sometimes there are small conflicts. Big brother is worried about you being here.”
Although his younger sister is very powerful, she is still a girl. If she is captured alive like himself, her reputation will be ruined.
Last time he received news that a small village was robbed by Tatar soldiers, so he led his team there. Who knew that there were so many Tatar barbarians, and they were captured alive.
Although these Tatar soldiers could not enter the border town, they could cross over from the nearby mountains and forests. However, the mountains and forests were very large and covered with snow all year round, making it extremely difficult to cross.
I don’t know how those barbarians turned over last time.
What Shen Jingyuan didn't know was that the third prince of Tatar only brought out 8,000 people last time, but after crossing the mountain, he lost 3,000 people in vain.
"Brother, don't worry, I'll be fine. It's their bad luck if they meet me."
Shen Jingyuan shook his head with disapproval, “Ali, there are many barbarians, so don’t be reckless.”
He is a good example this time. So what if his fighting power is very high?
There are many barbarians. Let’s fight them in a round-robin battle. How many can you defeat?
Chen Li nodded and promised seriously: "Don't worry, big brother, even if I can't beat him, don't I have legs? The key is why would I leave the city for no reason?"
"Well, don't leave the city if you have nothing to do, and don't go out if you have something to do."
"I'll try my best."
"Okay, Ali, you've come such a long way, go and rest first."
"good."
Just as she walked outside Pei Yu's yard, An Yi came out, "Miss Shen, your room is ready, it's next door, and your clothes are ready too."
"Okay, where's Yu? Is he still sleeping?"
"Yes, the master hasn't slept all day."
I secretly complained that it was useless for those of them who were doing summer vacation to talk about it, but what Miss Shen said should be useful.
Chen Li raised her brows slightly. Is he tired of living?
When I returned to the room, I saw that the style of the room was also that of a border town, which was quite unique. Even the clothes and jewelry in the wardrobe were from here.
After resting in the room for a while, it gradually got dark outside, a drizzle began to fall, and the wind blew on my face, causing bone-piercing pain.
He walked towards the yard next door, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Pei Yu handling official business at the desk.
"Are you busy?"
Pei Yu noticed something was wrong with her tone, and paused for a moment before putting his hand aside. "It's okay, not too busy. Ah Li, are you awake?"
