Chapter 129 Opportunity
It has been a while since the Xu family moved to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the capital. These days, not only Dong Shu, but also Mrs. Xu's mood has been greatly relieved by moving to Zhuangzi.

Because Zhuangzi was very close to Xu Shiqiu's military camp, now Xu Shiqiu could come back every day.

Occasionally, Dong Shu would ask Zhuangzi's servants to deliver some food to Xu Shiqiu outside the barracks.

Xu Shiqiu didn't mind occasionally receiving food from his own lady, after all, most of the food that was delivered went into Ye Shuo's stomach.

Ye Shuo's identity is here, Dong Shu, the third aunt, takes care of him, even if there are people in the military camp who are jealous, it's hard to say anything.

Also because Ye Shuo joined the army, Xu Shiqiu never went to see Emperor Ruikang or King Duan, so the court generously allocated three months of food and grass to them.

Although Liu Shangshu of the household department did not show favoritism, after learning that the eldest grandson Liu Ze abandoned literature and joined the military, he still hinted to the people under him not to block their funding.

It's just that as Xu Shiqiu's recruits were full and training began, Ye Shuo was not happy.

"Third Uncle, I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and now this kind of training is really too little for me." After staying in the barracks for a while, Ye Shuo obviously became darker, but he was indeed more energetic than before. many.

He didn't pull Liu Ze this time because he knew that although Liu Ze was older than him, he worked hard enough, but after all, he didn't practice martial arts since childhood, so he couldn't keep up with his physical strength.

After Xu Shiqiu heard Ye Shuo's words, he squinted at him.

These days, he trains with the recruits every day, and as he slowly works hard, his relationship with the recruits is getting better and better.

Ruikangdi asked him to recruit 500 recruits. His plan was to select one of the [-] recruits and divide them into three teams. The most important team would become his direct team in the future.

He originally planned to arrange the next training plan today, and made the first stage of the assessment by the way. Who knows that Ye Shuo has been pestering him since he came to him.

"I'm going to formulate the first stage of the assessment today. You go back first. After two days, if you can keep up with the performance of the others in the first stage of the assessment, I will increase the training for you as appropriate."

As soon as Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, Ye Shuo immediately agreed.

After Ye Shuo left, Xu Shiqiu shook his head with a smile, but before he could continue to deal with the matter in hand, he heard Zhang Ping's announcement again.

"Come in."

As soon as Xu Shiqiu's voice fell, Zhang Ping stepped into the room.

"General, news came from the family that there is a visitor, Madam told you to go home tonight." After Zhang Ping finished speaking, he stood aside with his head down, waiting for Xu Shiqiu's reply.

Xu Shiqiu frowned slightly when he heard Zhang Ping's words.

Knowing that he had a lot of things on his hands these two days, when Xu Shiqiu left home this morning, he said that he might not come home tonight.

Who would have thought that such a message would be received before noon.

"Do you know who is here?"

Xu Shiqiu didn't think there were any guests from his family who would come. Almost all his relatives were in the capital, and the only lady cousin who might come would not be able to enter Beijing until the end of the year.

Now at this time, who will it be?
"I don't even know."

Zhang Ping really didn't know who the guest was, but someone from his family sent such a message, so he could only convey it to Xu Shiqiu in the original words.

Although Xu Shiqiu was puzzled in his heart, he also understood that if the guests who came were not really important, his little lady would never let others pass the news.

Because he knew this in his heart, Xu Shiqiu decided to go home after training in the afternoon.

At the same time, at the Zhuangzi of the Xu family, Dong Shu was calling the servants to serve tea quickly.

"I really didn't expect you to come to the capital together." Dong Shu said, her eyes couldn't help but look at Yan Ye who was sitting beside He Ce.

Dong Shu was not surprised that He Ce would come to look for them. After all, when he left Qizhen, Xu Shiqiu left a message for He Ce. .

But how could Yan Ye, who was walking around the rivers and lakes, come with him?

Although Dong Shu was a little different now, Yan Ye could clearly see the puzzlement on her face.

Yan Ye's voice was still hoarse, seeing Dong Shu looking at him again, he explained: "I came to the capital to visit friends, and I happened to meet He Ce."

Yan Ye's words were simple, and as soon as he finished speaking, He Ce immediately answered, "Ma'am, it was Yan Ye who rescued Zixia and Jiannei on the road, and I overheard Xiaxia mentioning that he came to the capital to find the young master." Yes, that’s why we have been protecting each other all the way.”

Hearing He Ce's words, Dong Shu also looked at He Ce's side. She was originally a fiancée, but now she is married to the Zheng family.

Zheng's appearance is indeed good, at least after Dong Shu has met many girls from rich families, she also thinks that Zheng's appearance belongs to the upper middle class.

Before Dong Shu could react, Nanny Yan who was following Dong Shu instantly understood what He Ce meant.

Dong Shu had simply told Nanny Yan who He Ce and Yan Ye were just now. Now that Nanny Yan heard He Ce's words, she knew that he had such a beautiful lady. Difficult to protect.

And with Yan Ye around, they would be much safer all the way to the capital.

However, Nanny Yan took a subtle look at Yan Ye who was sitting on the other side of He Ce. She always felt that this Yan Ye had an aura that she was very familiar with.

However, Nanny Yan came from the deep palace, and she would not speak indiscriminately before the matter was confirmed.

When Dong Shu heard that Yan Ye had saved He Ce by chance, she didn't doubt it. After all, Yan Ye was from the Jianghu, and people from the Jianghu had bad hearts, so naturally they also had good hearts, and they would reach out to help when encountering injustice.

"I have already notified my husband, but it may not be until evening when he returns home from work. After lunch, you can go to the guest room to rest."

He Ce rushed from Qizhen to the capital with his newlywed wife and Yan Ye whom he met along the way. After entering the capital, he learned that the master's family was all outside the city.

They arrived in the capital yesterday afternoon and spent the night in an inn in the capital, only to find Dong Shu today.

Although they had a rest at the inn last night, but the inn is an inn after all, the few people did not rest well.

Now when they heard Dong Shu's words, none of them refused. After lunch, they all went to the guest room to rest.

There are also quite a few small courtyards in Zhuangzi, and Dong Shu arranged Yan Ye and He Ce in two adjacent small courtyards.

The two small courtyards are not big, and both have only three main rooms and two side rooms.

It wasn't until after they all went down to rest that Dong Shu came to Mrs. Xu's yard and told Mrs. Xu about He Ce and Yan Ye's visit in detail.

"The coming of He Ce was calculated in advance by Mr. He. He said that He Ce has the talent for business, but he had no one to support him before and the capital was not enough, so he was going to support He Ce to do business in the capital." Dong Shu told Xu Shiqiu's plan Tell Mrs. Xu completely, after saying this, see Mrs. Xu nodded, and then continued: "It's just that my husband didn't expect Yan Ye to come with him."

Dong Shu still remembered that later, when Xianggong remembered the people they met all the way from Xiahe Village to the capital, he specifically brought up Yan Ye for a while.

Xianggong said that Yan Ye's martial arts should be good, but this person is unpredictable, and he would not have a deep friendship with him until he was sure of his background.

But even Dong Shu has a simple and honest temper, so she can feel that He Ce and Yan Ye have a very good relationship now.

He Ce is the one whom Xianggong must use, but Yan Ye is unfathomable.

The old lady Xu was very happy that Dong Shu could think of this. After hearing what Dong Shu had said, she looked at Dong Shu with a smile on her face and said, "You don't need to worry about this matter. When Qiu comes back at night, he will find that He Ce and Yan Yezhi are the same. The relationship between them." After saying this, the old lady Xu thought for a while and continued: "Since Shi Qiu intends to use any strategy, then you will bring Mrs. Zheng to my place later, and I will give them some wedding presents by the way."

With the identity of Mrs. Xu here, it is naturally impossible to take the initiative to meet He Ce and the others, so only Mrs. Zheng came to the backyard to meet Mrs. Xu.

"Okay, I'll arrange this later." After saying this, Dong Shu saw that Mrs. Xu was in a good mood, and hurriedly said: "Mother, we have been on the Zhuangzi for a while, so we can go to the post to ask my sister and Yanzhu will come to stay for two days."

According to the original arrangement, when they moved to Zhuangzi, Yanzhu would follow. After all, Zhuangzi next door belonged to Yanzhu.

But unexpectedly, before Yan Zhu could speak, the old lady of the Jiang family fell ill.

Although Xu Yanzhu didn't like this mother-in-law, the old lady of the Jiang family was ill, so as a daughter-in-law, she naturally had to stay at home to take care of the sick.

After such a delay, now that some days have passed, Dong Shu doesn't know how Mrs. Jiang is doing now, so she can't write to ask about it, so naturally she can only make excuses and ask Xu Yanzhu if she can come to Zhuangzi to escape the summer heat.

When Mrs. Xu heard Dong Shu's words, she nodded immediately and said, "It's just right, brother Shuo has been in the barracks for a while, and your sister can still see him when you come."

With Mrs. Xu's words, Dong Shu naturally went to write a post immediately. By the way, she also asked the maid to go to He Ce and Mrs. Zheng's yard to notify Mrs. Zheng that she would come to see Mrs. Xu when Mrs. Zheng had a good rest.

When Xu Shiqiu came back, Mrs. Xu was just about to meet Mrs. Zheng, and He Ce and Yan Ye were waiting at the door, wanting to meet Mrs. Xu.

As soon as Xu Shiqiu saw He Ce, he understood why his little lady couldn't wait to send him a letter to let him go home.

He was nagging two days ago, and he didn't know if He Ce was married, and if he was married, why didn't he come to the capital.

Unexpectedly, he met He Ce in just two days.

It's just that what Xu Shiqiu didn't expect was that he would see Yan Ye again here.

Yan Ye was still dressed as before, with a mask on his face. If he hadn't felt Yan Ye's malice, maybe he would really drive such an unknown person out of the Xu family.

Yan Ye should have also felt Xu Shiqiu's scrutiny. He tilted his head, smiled slightly at Xu Shiqiu, and then said, "Excuse me, Third Young Master Xu."

After Xu Shiqiu heard Yan Ye's words, he also smiled back, and then said softly: "It's okay, whoever comes is a guest."

While speaking, Xu Shiqiu tentatively sent a murderous intent towards Yan Ye, but Yan Ye didn't panic at all, and rushed towards Xu Shiqiu with the same unreal killing intent.

He Ce, who was standing by the side, could clearly feel the unusual momentum between Yan Ye and Xu Shiqiu, but he hadn't practiced martial arts, so he didn't know what happened between them.

Therefore, he also missed the opportunity to discover the truth in the first place.
