Chapter 280
In the third year of 330 AD, Lei Guo.

The bright sunlight shines through the layers of tree shadows and shines on the ground, forming spots of mottled spots.In such a crisp autumn season, the breeze blows by, bringing a hint of coolness.

It was time to enjoy lunch, but at this moment, there was an unusual aura flowing in the Zhenbei General's Mansion.You may not be able to tell where this unusual breath is coming from, but you can smell such a trace of unusual breath very keenly.

"Father, mother," as soon as she was seated, Shen Jiaqing felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere at the moment, no, it was not a little bit, but something was very wrong.

At this moment, even the Shen family, who uphold the ancient motto "Don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep", would be absolutely quiet when eating, but it has never been like this, with a faint sense of calmness. The coolness, that little bit of coolness, penetrated straight into the heart.

On the dining table, there are plates of exquisite delicacies, which are emitting a little fragrance at this moment. With the breeze blowing and the smell of the meal, people can't help but whet their appetite. However, at this moment, no one has In the mood to enjoy.

Even Mo Xiaoru, who usually has a special preference for delicacies, is frowning at this moment, with a sad face on his face.Those who don't know will think that she has changed her temper.actually not.

"Hey" Mo Xiaoru sighed, with a little bit of worry, a little bit of reluctance, and a little bit of helplessness revealed between his brows, "Jia Qing, I'm afraid there will be a war."

"Huh? Could it be that the north is not flat?" Hearing this, Shen Jia raised her head lightly, but her delicate brows were slightly furrowed, but it was only fleeting. If you don't observe carefully, you can't get rid of the frown just now. The boy with eyebrows is on par with the indifferent boy in front of him.

Lei country has only been at peace for less than a year, is it going to start a new war, is the people going to start living in dire straits again?

At the beginning of March in the first year of Nanhe, the first emperor died. In the same year, the new emperor Nangong He ascended the throne, and at the same time changed the name of the country to Nanhe.In the first year of Nanhe, this country that had just changed hands experienced the most turbulent period in history, which had severely damaged the country's vitality.Now, if there is another war in the north, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Speaking of the new Emperor Nangong He, that is really a great legend of the Lei Kingdom.Perhaps it was a gift from the heavens. When Nangong He was born, the celestial phenomena changed drastically. A master who was proficient in celestial phenomena predicted that he was the proud son of heaven.Therefore, Longyan was very happy, and immediately named the newly born Nangong He the crown prince.

Perhaps it is really a gift, the crown prince Nangong He was proficient in poetry and poetry at the age of three, and knew astronomy and geography at the age of four.Hearing this, the first emperor felt that his original decision was not wrong.

However, no one expected that the disaster would come so quickly, and the country was plunged into panic with such a swiftness.

The first emperor passed away inexplicably, so the 19-year-old crown prince Nangong He became the new emperor without hesitation, and at the same time changed the year name to Nanhe. Knowledge, the orderly governance of this chaotic country, finally ended this panic.

In fact, it is really not a simple matter to end this panic situation.With such a young emperor, how many of the courtiers can be convinced?
However, Nangong He has this kind of ability, which makes you have to obey.Coupled with the support of a few courtiers in the court, despite the difficulties, the final outcome is satisfactory after all.Those who are not convinced, in the end, can only nod their heads, otherwise, what else can they do?

No one can imagine that this 19-year-old boy has such a talent. Perhaps, he really fulfilled the prophecy of the master who is proficient in celestial phenomena—the proud son of heaven!Yes, the proud son of heaven!

And at this moment, could it be that this peaceful situation is about to be broken after less than a year?Once the war starts, the people will be displaced at dawn!Let me ask, who can bear it?Make those innocent Dawn people homeless

How about letting this country, which has already been seriously injured, experience that kind of panic scene again?
"Mother, was the war started by Cang Yiguo?" Hearing this, Mo Xiaoru couldn't help staring at Shen Jia for a while, why hadn't she discovered that her daughter had an exquisite heart, For each question, it was always possible to pick out the focus of the question.Therefore, she couldn't help but cast a few more glances at Shen Jia.At the same time, he elbowed Shen Xiaoan who was sitting beside him.

Next to Mo Xiaoru, Shen Xiaoan couldn't help but glance at his daughter Shen Jia.He looked in disbelief at the daughter who was dressed in men's clothes in front of him, and she turned out to be so fresh.

Actually, speaking of it, Shen Xiaoan and Mo Xiaoru felt a little guilty about their daughter Shen Jiaqing.

At the beginning, when she was pregnant, she ate fast and recited Buddha's name every day, praying to God to give her a son.Although she knew that this would not have much effect, she still did it like this and insisted on it every day.

However, God may not have heard her heartfelt voice. She was pregnant in October, and until the moment the child was born, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart. God could give her a boy as she wished, and it would not be in vain for her Ri Lai prayed sincerely, but she never expected that God would send her a girl.

Maybe, when I found out that I gave birth to a girl, I felt a little bit disappointed in my heart, but this did not overshadow the joy of the child's birth.After all, children are always the heart and soul of parents. In this world, every parent wants to give their children the best in the world.

To this day, she took a closer look, and suddenly found that the baby from back then had grown up. The baby who seemed to be crying in her arms yesterday had grown up and looked like a slim young girl. At this moment, she was wearing men's clothing, but it still couldn't hide her beauty.The cry of the child when he was just born seemed to still be echoing in his ears, but now, in the blink of an eye, he has grown up.

Speaking of which, if someone asks Mo Xiaoru why he longs for a boy so much, the reason is actually very simple.Like most women's thinking, she hopes to have a son who can be like her husband Shen Xiaoan, who can become an official in the court in the future, inherit his father Shen Xiaoan's position as General Zhenbei, and be able to make some contributions to the country, and then she On the other hand, she traveled with Shen Xiaoan to play in the mountains and rivers, and spent her old age peacefully, but she never thought that she would be a daughter.In fact, at the beginning of the founding of the Lei Kingdom, there were precedents for women to enter the court as officials. Today, positions in the court are reserved for those who are capable, regardless of gender.

At the beginning, when Mo Xiaoru was pregnant at Chuchu, she revealed her idea of ​​having a son to her husband Shen Xiaoan. I remember at that time, hearing her thoughts, Shen Xiaoan just smiled lightly, and then replied. She said, "Boys and girls, God has his own destiny."Yes, God has its own destiny.Otherwise, why did she hope to have a son with so much hope, but after all, she couldn't match that "determined number"!

However, speaking, after her daughter Shen Jiaqing was born, her appearance was really lovely.For a while, Hua Xiaoru, who was eagerly looking forward to the boy at the beginning, fell in love with him.In fact, Mo Xiaoru loves both boys and girls.However, if the two cannot have both, Hua Xiaoru still hopes to be a son.In that way, he will be able to inherit his father's position in the future and contribute to the country.

On that day, friends Xia Zhenxing and his wife came to Shen's house to visit the Shens. Xia Zhenxing and his wife Zhang Wanjing loved children very much.Zhang Wanjing looked at the baby who was still in its infancy. Such a beautiful child really couldn't tell whether it was a boy or a girl. She asked casually, "Is this a boy or a girl?" With a sudden plan, I looked at the baby in my arms, with such a pretty little face, it was really hard to tell whether it was a boy or a girl, it was really enough to confuse the real one, wasn't it?

"It's a boy," Mo Xiaoru replied eagerly before her husband, and after she finished speaking, she blinked at Shen Xiaoan, and she could see the message in her beautiful eyes at a glance.In fact, it's not that she doesn't like this daughter. On the contrary, although she was very eager to have a boy at the beginning, she still likes this daughter very much. Dressing her daughter as a man is just to give birth to a boy. It's just an addiction.

Shen Xiao'an smiled helplessly, he naturally knew what Madam Mo Xiaoru meant, although she didn't have the patriarchal thinking of this era, but she was very eager to have a boy like him.I still remember that not long after they got married, she revealed her thoughts to him.

In my memory, it seemed to be an autumn afternoon. There was no bright sunshine that day, and there were white clouds in the sky.On such a day, it is very suitable to sit and chat in the gazebo.

Coincidentally, on that day, there was nothing to do in court, so he stayed with Mo Xiaoru. In fact, speaking of it, Shen Xiaoan felt that he still felt a little guilty for Hua Xiaoru.It's not that he did anything to offend Mo Xiaoru, but that sometimes he was busy with affairs in court, so he was often too busy to spend time with Hua Xiaoru.

Therefore, as long as he is free, he will accompany her. As long as it is her request, if it is within his ability, he will definitely agree without hesitation.

That day, after the two had lunch, they took a rest in the gazebo.At that time, he remembered Mo Xiaoru nestled in his arms, murmured: "Xiao An, it would be great if we have a son in the future. I hope the boy looks like you, handsome and elegant, I don't know how to be fascinated by that time." How many girls!" She couldn't help laughing out loud as she spoke.

I remember that at that time, he still laughed at her for being stupid, but he never thought that her idea would continue to this day, even after he learned that he had given birth to a daughter, he never stopped.Thinking about it, she just wanted to raise her daughter as a son for a period of time to enjoy herself.Thinking of this, Shen Xiaoan didn't say much.

What Shen Xiaoan never imagined was that at the beginning they thought it was just fun, and it has lasted for 15 years. Until today, looking at the daughter who is still dressed in men's clothing, although the daughter has never complained in front of the two of them, but in her heart The guilt still loomed.

Shen Xiaoan looked at the young man in front of him, he was no longer the child who only knew how to cry, for a moment, he even sighed, "Time makes people grow old".

Thinking of all the past, Shen Xiao'an realized that the story between him and Mo Xiaoru couldn't be told in a few words.Immediately, he thought of what his daughter had just said.

Involuntarily, he said, "Jia Qing, how did you know?" Shen Xiao'an couldn't help being surprised by her daughter's indifferent words.He remembered that he had never disclosed this at home, so how did his daughter know about it?
"Father, do you still remember the spy from Cangyi country that you caught a few days ago?" Shen Jia looked at the two people in front of her lightly, although time flies, she still couldn't hide their youthful demeanor.

"A spy from Cang Yi Country? Jia Qing, how did you know about this?" Shen Xiaoan frowned, with a puzzled look on his face, could it be that there were spies in the Shen family army?Otherwise, how did Jiaqing know about this?

As if seeing the doubts on her father's face, Shen Jia smiled lightly, "Father, you should trust your subordinates, they are all men like steel, so how could they turn against you. This matter , I found out by accident."

"That's right, master, without evidence, how can we conclude that there must be a traitor in the Shen family army." Mo Xiaoru tugged on Shen Xiaoan's sleeve.

In fact, she also felt that it was impossible for a traitor to emerge from the Shen family's army. She had been married to Shen Xiao'an for many years, and although she was not [-]% familiar with the brothers in the Shen family's army, she was quite familiar with them.Those people, all of them are strong men, how could they do such a thing?
Hearing his wife and daughter's words, Shen Xiaoan smiled slightly, but in fact he didn't doubt his brothers.What he was worried about was that unidentified people had entered the Shen family's army.

All these brothers have been with him for more than ten years, how could he not understand their temperament, not to mention that they would not betray him and the Shen family army for no reason.Even if someone put a knife on their neck, they would rather die than surrender, how can they do such a thing?In fact, the thought just now was only fleeting in his mind.

"Father, has the emperor made a decision yet?" Shen Jiaqing pointedly asked the most critical question.She knew that the war was about to break out, but who would the emperor plan to lead the battle this time?
"It's your father," Mo Xiaoru interjected, "Mother just found out about it too." After she finished speaking, she gave Shen Xiaoan a slight look. She knew that she was going to lead the army to fight two days ago, and she was able to hide it. so good.

That's right, Mo Xiaoru admits that sometimes she is really a little unreasonable, but it's not because she is worried about him.Otherwise, why would she need to be so worried? Mo Xiaoru looked at her husband who was holding her in his arms with a little sadness in her eyes, and tears in her eyes. Mo Xiaoru pursed her red lips slightly. It's the same person, but he still can't take his eyes off it.Why did he want to leave her, but the war is imminent, no matter how unwilling he is, he has to leave.
