Hui Niang gave Li Jin a blank look and said to Chen Xi: "The master reads the books of sages and usually takes it as his responsibility to support the country. How can he delay military and national affairs due to his children's personal affair? If the master goes to war, I and my sister will stay at Xuanfu... Or if the master is afraid of trouble, I can go back to the south."

When Chen Xi heard Hui Niang say she was leaving, she darkened, "I am the head of the family. You can just obey orders and act... You can relax. This time the troops are similar to traveling around the mountains and rivers. The rebels are just native chickens and tiles, vulnerable, and the rebellion will soon be quelled. You may not know that this battle was caused by my fuel..."

Hui Niang felt that Chen Xi was angry. Even if she had any objections, she would not dare to say them for a while.

If the rules that Chen Xi mastered were respected by Hui Niang every time, this strong woman would unconsciously "stoppable".

Hui Niang is a very opinionated woman, so she has her own opinions on everything. If you want her to surrender, there is only one way, that is, to show majesty. Out of awe of etiquette and law, Hui Niang will force herself to make changes. Chen Xi knew that when talking to Hui Niang, he could be strong but not surrender, and his attitude would become tough.

As expected, after Chen Xi finished speaking, Hui Niang's attitude changed immediately, as if she realized that some words were not something she could say.

Li Jin said: "When will the master go on the battle? I can also pack my luggage..."

The best person to adjust between Chen Xi and Hui Niang is Li Jin. She is smart and smart. She usually looks like a jewellery in her family, which is not so eye-catching. However, she has been in the business world since she was a child. In terms of ability and knowledge, she is no worse than Hui Niang. In terms of background, she is even higher than Hui Niang.

But Li Jin knew how to behave and knew how to move forward and retreat, and knew that in Shen Xi's mind, he was just a concubine, while Chen Xi usually cared about Hui Niang and treated her well, and she was no different from her wife. This made Li Jin realize that if she wanted to stay with Shen Xi, she could only be the role of Hui Niang and Jinlan sisters, and she could not be at all over the place.

Chen Xi said in a relaxed tone: "If nothing unexpected happens, he will set out in two days. If it is time to clean up, he will clean up. As for Hong'er... he was a coincidence that he had a cold wind and cold. In order to ensure that it is not hindered, he could only stay in Xuanfu..."

"But... I can't rest assured as Hong'er."

Hui Niang lowered her head, obviously twisting again, and her cheeks were tightly stretched.

Chen Xidao: "I will invite the nurse to take care of you. Children must develop an independent consciousness from an early age and cannot be spoiled... Alas!"

Speaking of this, Chen Xi was a little inappropriate. He knew that his father was incompetent. Not only Chen Hong, but also Chen Ping and Shen Ting and other children in the capital, he did not fulfill his responsibilities as a father.

It is difficult for him to take care of family.

This time Lin Dai and Xie Hengnu gave birth to a daughter, but he was not by his side, and a feeling of guilt arose in his heart.

Li Jin said: "Master, sister, Hong'er grew up day by day, speaks and does things well, and has a strong understanding. Now I am teaching him to read and read."

Hearing the words and his son, Hui Niang showed a look of pride on her face.

Chen Hong is like his half-brother Chen Ping, and has a high talent. Perhaps Chen Xi's genetic genes have played a role, and the two children have excellent understanding.

Chen Xidao: "Hong'er is too young, so there is no need to force him to read and read, just follow the circumstances."

...

...

Because of the war, Hui Niang was taciturn for a while since then. No matter how Chen Xi teased her, she would bow her head and say nothing.

At night, Chen Xi stayed in the room. After a while, the clouds and rain stopped, Li Jin fell asleep. He put on his clothes and returned to the desk, and he was completely sleepy.

Hui Niang put on her clothes and brought tea and water.

Chen Xi looked at Li Jin who was sleeping soundly on the couch and asked, "Why don't you rest?"

"Jin'er is even more tired, let her sleep."

Hui Niang shook her head and said, "Besides, I am pretending to be in my body and mind... I can't sleep."

Chen Xi asked, "I want to stay in Xuanfu, don't I go to war with me?"

Chen Xi asked directly, and Hui Niang answered more simply: "Yes."

"I still hope you can be by my side, and no one can comfort you on the journey. I feel like I am a lonely man." Chen Xi sighed lightly.

Hui Niang said softly: "Then let Jin'er go on the road with the master. I don't understand the affairs of the army, so I stayed at Xuanfu to manage the business and took care of Hong'er at the same time... The child was having a fever, and I am afraid that the typhoid fever disease would not be cured in a short period of time. If the parents were not around..."

Hui Niang didn't continue to say some words.

Chen Xi understood that as a father, he had just established an intimate relationship with his son, so he was about to leave, and he took his mother away with him, which was indeed unfair to Chen Hong.

"It depends on the situation then."

Chen Xi was a little helpless, "I am indeed willing to respect your opinion. Maybe I should think more about my family, rather than just focusing on myself."

In his words, Chen Xi felt a little guilty, and his deep attachment to Hui Niang in his heart has never changed since he was a child.

...

...

After Yang Yiqing sent troops, many rumors about the rebellion of King Anhua were circulating in the capital.

This is an era when it is difficult to control public opinion. Anything disturbances will spread among the people. In big cities, news can be sent to thousands of households by word of mouth.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't get the latest information on the front line, so he asked Xiao Guozi to go to the public to inquire. However, no matter how hard Xiao Guozi tried, he could not find out the specific situation, so he could only come to Xie Qian for help.

"...Mr. Xie, the villain came to the door because His Majesty urged him too hard. Although His Majesty often summoned Eunuch Liu, he was cautious in his words and actions and said nothing in front of His Majesty. He didn't know which of the news from the people is true or false. The villain had to come to you to inquire about the situation... Your reputation in the court is unmatched, and now the villain can only rely on you..."

Xiao Guozi hopes to get Xie Qian's guidance, but he is extremely determined in the fight against Liu Jin.

Xie Qian frowned: "Your Majesty can't get more news from Liu Jin?"

Xiao Twist's eyes turned and then asked, "Sir Xie, what you mean... do you have no new news here?"

Looking at the little twisted expression, Xie Qian couldn't bear to attack him and said, "As far as I know, the rebellion in Ningxia Town has not come out of Guanzhong, and it has not even been affected by the right bank of the Yellow River. After the rebellion, the local government has mobilized people to quell the rebellion."

"What about the rest?"

Xiao Tiaozi didn't think this information was very important.

Xie Qian said: "The rest is only when the follow-up battle report comes, and you can only report to Your Majesty in this way!"

"Oh... I can't handle the job so much, Your Majesty must punish the villain again."

Xiao Zhuozi looked full of annoyance, and his thoughts seemed to have floated outside the capital. "I thought Lord Xie, you have the battle report provided by Lord Shen, so you should know more about the situation ahead... Lord Xie, do you know where Lord Shen's troops are now?"

Xie Qian frowned: "As far as I know, there is no sign of being transferred in Xuanfu yet."

"Why is this? Lord Shen... Why didn't he send troops? Is he having any hidden secrets?"

Xiao Twist asked nervously.

Xie Qian said with a dark face: "You should have heard of some things... In order to avoid Xuanfu getting the first merit of suppressing the rebellion, Liu Jin deliberately delayed the imperial edict when sent to Xuanfu, so that the Xuanfu has not yet issued a military order to send troops to the Xuanfu today... How can you ask Shen Zhihou, a local official, to recruit troops from the defense zone?"

"Yes, it's really a problem."

Xiao Tiaozi finally found something that could be started, and he looked much more relaxed, saying, "Then Lord Xie, can you tell Your Majesty about this matter?"

Xie Qian said: "Yes, but it should be done as soon as possible. Some words are for you to say, and Your Majesty may doubt it."

Xiao Tiaozi thought for a while and said, "The villain knows what to say and what not to say after seeing Your Majesty, you will have your own sense of responsibility. Lord Xie, please rest assured."

Xie Qian didn't really want Xiao Tiaozi to be exposed too early. Seeing that the other party had already obtained the "information" he wanted, he sent him away.

When leaving the house, Xiao Taozi suddenly asked: "Mr. Xie, the rebellion in Anhua King is under the banner. You did not allow villains to inform Your Majesty before. Is this situation now... possible?"

Xie Qian shook his head and said, "No."

"this……"

Xiao Guozi obviously has different opinions from Xie Qian.

Xie Qian didn't want to explain too much to Xiao Guozi, and said, "Many things need to be discussed for a long time. If you inform Your Majesty early, what will happen will not be yourselves. You must keep it confidential."

“Yes, yes!”

Xiao Guozi didn't dare to make a decision, so he could only bow his hands and turn around and leave Xie's mansion.

...

...

After Xiao Tiaozi left, Xie Qian quickly sent someone to call Yunliu.

Xie Qian himself was also very concerned about the front-line war report. He was afraid that Liu Jin would deliberately suppress the emergency military situation.

After Yunliu arrived at Xie Qian's study, before she could salute and greet her, Xie Qian had already spoken: "I'll be spared if I have any extra etiquette. Is there any new news about Xuanfu?"

Yun Liu said: "I learned from my humble position that Lord Shen has not sent troops yet."

"When is it, he is still dragging it out?"

Xie Qian shouted, "I can see that in order to defeat Liu Jin, he has begun to use any means. The matter of suppressing the rebellion is so tight that he can't lead his troops to fight first?"

Yun Liu replied: "The Xuanfu has not yet received the Ministry of War's order."

With one sentence, Xie Qian was silent.

Xie Qian knew very well about the grudge between Shen Xi and Liu Jin. Liu Jin deliberately postponed the arrival of the Xuanfu Mansion by the imperial edict and the Ministry of War. He was worried that Shen Xi would take the opportunity to rise.

Yun Liu said: "In the past few days, martial law has been strictly enforced by the passes on the nine sides. Lord Shen has a first statement. If there is no order from the court, he will not send troops... I wonder what else do you have to give to Secretary Xie?"

Xie Qian said in a bad tone: "What did I say? Will Zhihou obey in Xuanfu? The court allocated a lot of troops to him, and he put the fight against the eunuch party first and ignored the interests of the court... But it's fine, then you pass on my letters to him to let him know my opinion... No matter how much Liu Jin does evil, he will lead his troops to wipe out the gang of traitors in Ningxia Town."

"Yes." Yun Liu bowed.

Xie Qian immediately wrote a letter and handed it to Yunliu.

He was still relieved to Yunliu. During this period of contact, Xie Qian found that Yunliu had a strong execution ability and could complete whatever work he had to hand it over to her. More importantly, Yunliu was very loyal to Chenxi, and Xie Qian was not afraid that Yunliu would leak the contents of the letter.

...

...

Xiao Guozi hurriedly left Xie Qian, with the main purpose of rushing back to the leopard room to report his life.

When he returned to the leopard room, he realized that Zhu Houzhao had just started to hold a banquet and had drinks and having fun. At this time, Concubine Hua and several dancers were there, so he did not dare to enter.
