Tender Pampering is the Best Strategy

Chapter 59: Disaster relief

The night is as cool as water.

In Fengluan Palace, Empress Dowager Feng was leaning halfway on the phoenix chair behind her, and the maid next to her body was carefully painting her hands with brightly colored Kodan.

In a moment, the maid outside the door came to report: "Empress Mother, Master Feng, please see me."

Hearing that, Queen Mother Feng moved her eyes without a trace, and then raised her eyes to look over, and her face was as calm as usual and said, "Let him come in."

With that said, Empress Dowager Feng closed her hand and dropped her eyes to admire the new Kordan color. She was quite satisfied: "This color looks good today. I can make more of it in the next day and send it to the harem concubine."

The grand palace **** the side responded with blessing and said: "This color is made by the people who deliberately picked the peony for several days. When I sent it, I looked at the color and knew that the empress mother must like it. I will help you get started as soon as I get back."

Empress Dowager Feng laughed from ear to ear. Before she could speak, the door of the hall was pushed open from outside. Empress Dowager Feng raised her head and closed her hands, then turned her head and said to the great palace lady beside her: "Okay, it's not too early today, Aijia doesn't need you to wait, let's go down first."

The grand palace **** the side blessed her body, and after finishing the utensils on the table, she drew back wittily.

Below Feng Shangshu bowed and said: "The minister pays respects to the empress dowager."

On the phoenix chair, Empress Feng leaned halfway on the back of the chair behind her, and looked up at Feng Shangshu: "Get up."

As soon as the voice fell, before the Queen Mother Feng could speak, Feng Shangshu said: "The minister needs to tell the Queen Mother about something."

The Queen Mother Feng raised her eyes, her face serious: "What's the matter?"

"I don't know why, the spies I used to plant at Pei's mansion suddenly all disconnected today. Most of them were discovered by Pei Yunqian. At this time, I am afraid that there will be more fortunes."

Feng Shang carried a little regret in the writing. The one he sent to Pei Yunqian's mansion was carefully selected by him, and it was so folded.

Hearing this, the Queen Mother snorted coldly, with a little sarcasm on her face: "I'm afraid it's not that bad today. It was discovered by Pei Yunqian a long time ago. It was only today that they cut off their contact with the outside world or contact you. It's Pei Yunqian's people at all."

Speaking, the Queen Mother lifted her head and glanced at him: "My good brother, you are afraid that Pei Yunqian put one in."

Hearing this, Feng Shangshu seemed to have suddenly figured out something, and his expression changed from consternation to anger. It is no wonder that the last time he fought against him, he suffered more and more losses and his family was almost exhausted.

He now has the heart to kill Pei Yunqian.

Seeing this, Queen Mother Feng took out something small and exquisite from her sleeves and handed it to Feng Shangshu: "Look at it."

Feng Shangshu was taken aback for a moment, and raised his hand to take the half of the pearl earrings from the Queen Mother Feng. He fiddled with it for a while and then raised his head to look at the Queen Mother Feng: "This is?"

Empress Dowager Feng retracted her gaze, raised her hand and took the tea cup on the table next to her, sipped a sip, then curled her lips and said: "During the reign of Emperor Xian, among the pearls that Nanyang paid tribute to, the finest pearls were given to Shen. Shu and Shen Yuan each made a pair of earrings, and Shen Yuan put them in the box."

With that, the Queen Mother Feng slowly fell on the half-pair of pearl earrings that Feng Shangshu was holding. She made no secret of killing in her eyes. She whispered: "And the one in your hand is me at the gate of your camp last night. Found it."

Hearing this, Feng Shangshu's face changed in an instant. He turned pale when he saw it, and he was so startled that he spoke for a while: "You mean it was Shen Shu who eavesdropped at the door that night?"

"In all likelihood, she can't be wrong." When Shen Shu came to ask for medicine for Pei Yunqian, she discovered something, but she was not sure at the time. Now Shen Shu can hear her clearly outside the camp, so she can't leave her!

I thought that with Shen Yue’s life in her hand, she could let Shen Shu obediently listen to her, but now it seems that Shen Shu’s move is mostly a waste move, and she seems to have no reason to leave someone who knows her secret. The life of abandoned son

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother Feng's eyes flickered, and she slowly said, "Is it done for you?"

Hearing this, Feng Shangshu looked up at her and nodded: "Naturally, don't you worry about the minister doing things? Besides, people have been prepared for a long time, but now it is only a few days in advance."

The two looked at each other, and the corner of Queen Mother Feng's lips evoked a meaningful smile.

She has been preparing for this drama for a long time.

Less than a cup of tea, the door of the main hall was pushed open again from the outside.

I saw the grand palace lady who had just gone out hurriedly came in: "The empress mother, it's okay, the middle of Shu just sent back news that there was an earthquake in Shu, and now your Majesty is calling the ministers into the palace to discuss countermeasures!"

Hearing this, Feng Shang stunned for a while, but the Queen Mother Feng's face was as usual and even a smile of unknown meaning evoked on her lips.

She had just prepared a big drama, and Zheng Chou had no introduction. There was an earthquake in Shuzhong at this moment, and the shock was good. It seems that God is also on her side this time.

After regaining his senses, Queen Mother Feng waved her hand and said with a chuckle: "Since your majesty summoned you, please go quickly, lest it will make your majesty unhappy."

His good-tempered son is probably so annoyed in the royal study room that he wants to kill at the moment.

Hearing this, Feng Shangshu paid a courtesy and then left Fengluan Palace with the great palace lady who had just entered.

Inside the Imperial Study Room.

Sitting on the dragon chair of the main seat, Shen Ting's face was gloomy, and all of them kneeling down were officials of rank 5 or above, and all of them bowed their heads and sullenly did not dare to take a mouthful, for fear that the next teacup would hit his own head.

——Bang!

Another teacup smashed on the ground, and broken porcelain pieces fell on the ground. This is the first teacup sacrificed tonight.

"Trash! A bunch of trash! What is the use for me to raise you? A group of people can't even think of a disaster relief plan! The salary is for you for nothing?"

Saying that another teacup was smashed down, and the hot tea inside splashed on the head of the official kneeling in the front row.

"Damn the minister! Your majesty calm down."

The man's legs were so frightened that his voice was trembling.

"What is the use of my life? If it is useful, I would have dragged you out and chopped it!"

With that said, Shen Ting raised his eyes and glanced at the people below, his expression a little unhappy, and he said sharply, "What about Pei Yunqian! Why didn't Pei Yunqian come! Here comes..."

Before Shen Ting could speak, a voice that was as indifferent and cold as before came from behind him, with a little sarcasm.

"The minister is here, your majesty is looking for a minister?"

Before the words fell, the door behind him was pushed open from the outside. Pei Yunqian stood at the door with a scattered expression, his eyes fell on Shen Ting's face, unavoidable.

Upon seeing this, Shen Ting frowned and said after a long while: "General Pei came just right. No one of the trash from the Shuzhong earthquake can think of a disaster relief strategy. What advice does General Pei have."

Pei Yunqian's face remained as usual, and his deep eyes looked at Shen Ting silently.

Qin Xun had already told him about the earthquake in the middle of Shu just on his way here. The terrain of Shu has complicated terrain. In recent years, earthquakes have occurred frequently, so houses have been reinforced. Normal earthquakes should not be a major problem, but I don’t know this. How serious was it at one time?

After a while, Pei Yunqian said indifferently: "Your Majesty doesn't need to worry, just send a reliable person to Shu to check the disaster situation. If the disaster situation is serious, make the next step."

Hearing this, Shen Ting's expression finally eased, and he nodded: "If this is the case, then I will trouble General Pei to run."

Before Pei Yunqian refused, Shen Ting continued: "Since the countermeasures were proposed by General Pei, I can't rest assured if others go there. It takes only three or five days to go."

Shen Ting's words like this can be regarded as blocking all of his words, he frowned and nodded in response, and the journey of only three or five days should not cause any trouble.

Seeing someone picking up this hot potato, the people kneeling underneath were relieved.

After a moment of silence, Shen Ting waved away the people under him, turned and entered the inner hall.

Pei Yunqian looked as usual, unable to see his emotions, turned and walked out of the Imperial Study Room.

Outside the door, Qin Xun was waiting by the side. Seeing Pei Yunqian came out and hurried to greet him, he approached Pei Yunqian's ear and said: "General, there is news from Shu, that there are not many casualties in this earthquake."

Pei Yunqian nodded his head as a response. Since there were not many casualties, he shouldn't have to stay in Shu for too long, and he would come back after five days of rushing.

"I am going to Shu area tomorrow to investigate the disaster situation for your majesty. You stay and protect the mansion, and sometimes send someone to notify me in time."

Hearing this, Qin Xun was taken aback. He lived in that place in Shuzhong for a while when he was young. Not to mention the frequent occurrence of earthquakes. If aftershocks were caught up, it would be the most terrible. In addition, because of the complicated terrain in Shuzhong, most of them were accidental. There is no bones left.

In silence, Qin Xun bowed and said, "Why does your Majesty send a general? The terrain in the middle of Shu is complicated. After the earthquake, there may be some changes."

Pei Yunqian glanced casually at the door of the Imperial Study Room behind him, and said lightly: "It's okay, it's only three or five days away. You can just take care of the mansion."

With that, Pei Yunqian paused, as if suddenly thinking of something, he was afraid that he would have to meet someone today when he went to Shu.

By the time Pei Yunqian took Qin Xun back to the house, it was already time. Just as Pei Yunqian walked around the corridor, he saw the light in the bedroom from a distance.

He frowned, and the pace under his feet quickened.

He pushed the door in, and sure enough, the little girl was leaning on the table with one hand on her face, waiting for him to come back.

Pei Yunqian closed the door with a calm face and walked in, with a clear accusation on his face, but his voice was extremely painful: "Why don't you sleep at this late hour."

Shen Shu got up from the table, she sat up straight and said warmly: "Wait for the general to come back."

Hearing this, the expression on Pei Yunqian's face was obviously softer. He raised his hand to pull Shen Shu from the chair, and said warmly, "I have something to tell you."

Shen Shu responded and followed Pei Yunqian: "But what happened in the palace?"

"It's not that there was an accident in the palace, it was the earthquake in the middle of Sichuan.

Hearing this, Shen Shu raised her head to look at Pei Yunqian, and the hand holding Pei Yunqian's sleeves tightened unconsciously, she said warmly: "How long will it take?"

With a smile on his face, Pei Yunqian helped Shen Shu to sit on the collapsed ground: "No more than ten days, less than three to five days."

Before Shen Shu could speak, Pei Yunqian's conversation turned, and his gaze slowly fell on Shen Shu's face. He leaned in and slowly approached Shen Shu, and said in a deep voice, "Does the princess miss me?"

Hearing this, Shen Shu pushed him away. She was talking serious to him, but he was not serious again.

Shen Shu's hand just touched Pei Yunqian's clothes, and before he could take it back, he was caught by Pei Yunqian and pressed it back on him.

Although there was a thin layer of clothing, Shen Shu still felt that the palm of her hand was extremely hot, and she seemed to be able to feel Pei Yunqian's heartbeat.

Pei Yunqian lowered his head, staring at her with dark eyes, and rubbed the back of Shen Shu's hand vaguely with his fingers: "Huh?"

Shen Shu raised her eyes and glanced at Pei Yunqian. She pursed her lips and said warmly: "The journey to Shu Di is far away, so be careful on the general road."

Having said that, Shen Shu paused for a while before continuing: "I'm in the mansion waiting for the general to return."

Hearing this, Pei Yunqian gave a quick smile, raised Shen Shu's hand and lowered his head to kiss on the palm of his hand: "Okay."

"The general is going to take Qin Xun and Suzaku together this time?"

Pei Yunqian shook his head: "Your Majesty has sent me manpower. I will leave Suzaku and Qin Xun with you. If I remember correctly, Qin Xun’s ancestral home seems to be in the middle of Shu, but Qin Xun has been away from home for a long time and will not help. Why are you busy? Why not stay and look after you."

Hearing this, Shen Shu seemed to suddenly remember something, and raised his head and said: "General, I know that a person is very familiar with Shu."

Pei Yunqian raised his eyes, his dark eyes looked at Shen Shu and raised his eyebrows: "Really?"

Before Shen Shu could speak, he listened to Pei Yunqian calmly spit out a few words: "You said Su Yu."

Shen Shu nodded: "Brother Su Yu has been in Shu for a long time and should be very familiar with the terrain. If the general has anything to do with him, Brother Su Yu will definitely be able to help."

Hearing this, Pei Yunqian's face became heavy, and for a while, he didn't know whether to say the little girl was smart or stupid.

Pei Yunqian's fingers under his sleeves twisted lightly. He squinted his eyes and slowly approached Shen Shu, his voice hoarse: "Brother Su Yu yelled quite smoothly. I've been a general all day, why didn't you call me? After a while, Brother Yun Qian, huh?"

Shen Shu was taken aback for a moment, and then realized it in her heart. She stretched out her hand and pushed Pei Yunqian, her voice was a little soft: "Why the general is so careful?

After that, Shen Shu raised his chin and looked at Pei Yunqian: "Besides, the general is not my elder brother, so why should I be called a general like that."

Hearing this, Pei Yunqian raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Not brother, what is that?"

Shen Shu turned his head, Wen Sheng said, "It's the general."

Before Pei Yunqian could speak, Shen Shu continued: "The general just said that Qin Xun's ancestral home is Shuzhong?"

Pei Yunqian looked daunted, leaned forward and leaned against the collapse, with a "Um" cry.

"What about the general? Where is the ancestral home of the general?"

Hearing this, Pei Yunqian gave a stunned expression, and there seemed to be a crack on his face, but it returned to normal in a moment.

He whispered: "Yangzhou."

Hearing this, Shen Shu's eyes suddenly brightened, and she raised her hand to pull Pei Yunqian's sleeves: "My mother and concubine's ancestral home is also Yangzhou."

Pei Yunqian's eyes dimmed, he lowered his eyes and watched Shen Shu hook his lips, he knew.

Shen Shu seemed to have discovered something new and novel. He pulled Pei Yunqian's sleeve and said, "The general tell me something about your childhood, OK?"

Pei Yunqian's throat rolled, and he said after a long time: "The princess really wants to listen?"
