Chapter 256
When Pei Songde returned home with his two children, the people who came to announce the good news to Chen Ling also followed.

The person who announced the good news first congratulated Pei Songde and his wife, and then congratulated Chen Ling himself, and left happily after taking the reward.

Because Chen Ling was ranked No.1 in Juren in high school and became a member of Xie Yuan, Pei Songde and his wife naturally wanted to give this son-in-law, and the future son-in-law a good one, so they booked it in the best restaurant in Yunzhou City There are several tables of banquets.

The dean and professors of Chen Ling Academy were invited, as well as Pei Songmao, He Ruishan and Pei Jing's military colleagues.

When Luo Hu heard that Pei Jing's brother-in-law and brother-in-law Jie Yuan were in high school, he naturally wanted to celebrate. As soon as he expressed his intentions, Pei Jing invited him along.

Coupled with some of Chen Ling's classmates and friends in the academy, Pei Songde originally reserved five tables for banquets, but it was far from enough, so he hurriedly added three more tables before barely sitting down.

Pei Xin held his breath and refused to go, pretending to be sick and moaning at home, Pei Songde and Lu Shi were annoyed at his ignorance, so they had to let him.

As a result, almost all the most powerful and richest people in Yunzhou City were invited to the celebration banquet because of Chen Ling.

Naturally, Chen Ling was the protagonist at the wine table, and everyone praised him non-stop.The dean of the academy told Chen Ling that although Zhongde Zhiyuan could obtain certain official positions with the permission of the imperial court, the official positions will not be very high. Most of them are small local officials, and the highest is only a seventh-rank county magistrate .

And Chen Ling is only 15 years old this year, and he is in his youth, so he should study hard and continue to take the No. [-] Scholar exam, and don't be too anxious to become an official.

Chen Ling nodded in agreement, indicating that she thought so too, and wanted to study hard for a few more years, waiting for the exam in three years.

After hearing this, the dean nodded repeatedly, praised Pei Songde and the Lu family, and said that Chen Ling would definitely be the youngest champion of Ruiguo in recent decades.

For parents, this sentence is undoubtedly more pleasant than any other words, not to mention that Chen Ling is not only the adopted son of Pei Songde and his wife, but also their son-in-law.

Chen Miao was very happy to hear everyone praise her younger brother. She sat beside Chen Ling. Seeing that the young man was praised by so many people, her face was at most just a happy smile without any pride. I am even more satisfied with her calmness, I just feel that my parents have spirits in the sky, if I can see this scene, I should be able to smile at Jiuquan.

She squeezed Chen Ling's hand lightly, and said softly: "It's a pity that Yue'er can't come today, otherwise, seeing so many people praise you, you must be happier than any of us."

After hearing Pei Yue's name, Chen Ling really showed a shyness of joy on his face. He turned his head and whispered in Chen Miao's ear: "Yue'er told me to eat less here, and give it to me when I get home. I cook delicious food."

Chen Miao covered her mouth and chuckled: "Yue'er's craftsmanship is by no means as pleasing to the eye as she is. Brother, I will shed a tear of sympathy for you."

Chen Ling squeezed out a bright smile, and also lowered her voice to tell her, "It's as sweet as sweets, sister."

Chen Miao gave him a white look, this little heartless person.

The banquet lasted from noon to almost dusk, and many people were already staggering from drinking. Pei Jing, Pei Songde, and He Ruishan sent away several people who were compared with each other, and Chen Ling followed Chen Miao and Lu Shi go home.

Sitting on the carriage, Chen Miao took Chen Ling's hand and said with emotion: "Ling'er, since you have passed the No. 1 provincial examination and got a Jieyuan, we should also find a day to pay homage to our parents. In the years since we came to Pei's house, we have never paid homage to them once."

Chen Ling also fell silent, and nodded, "Okay, then let's go tomorrow, and I will bring Yue'er along."

Chen Miao said angrily: "Yue'er is not from our Chen family, why are you in a hurry."

Chen Ling smiled and said: "Father told me that in a few days, choose a good and auspicious day, and let me be engaged to Yue'er first. Isn't this also a member of our Chen family?"

Chen Miao chuckled: "You are really in a hurry."

Chen Ling curled her lips: "I'm not in a hurry, it's her who is in a hurry..."

Chen Miao laughed lightly.

The next day, Chen Miao, Chen Ling and Pei Yue really prepared some offerings to worship Chen's father and Chen's mother.

The three burned the paper money and prayed silently. Chen Miao silently asked the spirits of her parents to bless all of them in safety and health, and hoped that Chen Ling would be able to take the first place in the exam three years later.

After paying homage to her parents, Chen Ling took Pei Yue to run and play all over the mountain again. Chen Miao shook her head amusedly, sitting on the hillside and watching the two teenagers laughing and playing to their heart's content, she felt that at this moment, her mood Incomparable pleasure.

How nice it would be if life could go on like this forever.

It's a pity that the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is often not satisfactory.

Half a month later, news came from Shuocheng at the border, saying that the Mo people had repeatedly caused troubles on the border. In recent days, there have been no less than seven or eight battles with the officers and soldiers stationed at the border, each with casualties.

Lu Wenhuan, who was stationed in Shuocheng, sent a secret letter to He Ruishan in five hundred miles, requesting He Ruishan to notify the court quickly, pay close attention to the movements of the soldiers of the Mo country, and beware of the people of the Mo country attacking the Rui country.

After He Ruishan received Lu Wenhuan's secret letter, he didn't dare to delay at all, and sent someone to rush the secret letter to the capital within [-] miles.

Five days later, the imperial court sent a decree, saying that since the Mo country has been oppressed to the top, it can no longer do nothing.Order He Ruishan to be the general, lead 5 people as the vanguard, and send troops two days later. Then the imperial court will appoint another general to lead [-] soldiers to meet him, and strictly order them to drive the Mo people back to Mo. go.

After receiving the imperial edict, He Ruishan quickly recruited soldiers and food in the city, prepared supplies and weapons, and prepared to send troops.

Pei Jing is the captain of the fifth rank, so naturally he can't take time off, this time he will go out with the army, and was appointed by He Ruishan as his lieutenant general.

The relatives in the family are about to go to the battlefield, and everyone is sad.

The battlefield is such a dangerous place, who knows what will happen?
A person who is still alive and kicking, talking and laughing today, may become a cold corpse tomorrow.

Chen Miao had mixed feelings in her heart, she still remembered that year when the people of Mo Kingdom besieged the city, she was worried all day at home, just wishing that Pei Jing would be safe and sound.

Even though the battle that year was fierce, but at least Pei Jing was in front of him, and he could always know whether he was safe or not every now and then.

But even though he has to go to such a distant border, who knows how long it will take to see him again?

The more Chen Miao thought about it, the more reluctant she was to give up, even the palm of her hand that silently packed Pei Jing's burden was trembling.

Seeing her like this, Pei Jing felt sad, hugged Chen Miao and said softly, "Don't worry, for you and Yao'er, I will come back to see you safely."
