stern wife

Chapter 770 Darling, elope?
Pei Xingshan was suddenly caught in a dilemma.

One side is his most beloved woman, and the other side is concerned with the rations of countless soldiers.

No matter which side to give up, it will be a heavy loss for Pei Xingshan.

but.

At that time, it was the time when the first daughter of the Shi family passed away, and Shi Shuli was going to enter the palace instead of her first sister.

Pei Xingshan was very unwilling to let the woman he loved marry someone else, he had already had some small thoughts.

Now is a good opportunity to practice, Pei Xingshan thought for a while, then chose to leave privately, and ran to his woman overnight.

AWOL is the only capital crime!
However, Pei Xingshan, who was dazzled by love at that time, really risked his life.

That's right, he wants to take Shi Shuli away!

He wants to take her to elope!
It doesn't matter where you go, even if you lose your identity as a descendant of the Pei family, even if you have to live your whole life being hunted down by officers and soldiers...

As long as you can be with the woman you love, then everything is worth it!

As for whether the soldiers guarding the border will starve or even starve to death because of his desertion...

Oh, he doesn't care about them!
In the eyes of Pei Xingshan, who was full of beauties at the time, the lives of those soldiers were far inferior to his beloved woman.

Therefore, when night came, the team delivering food and grass camped and rested on the spot.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Pei Xingshan rode his horse and galloped all the way towards the way he came, with his simply packed bags.

After returning to Zhijing, he had no time to rest, so he sneaked into Shi's house to look for Shi Shuli.

When Shi Shuli saw him, she was greatly surprised.

Then he severely reprimanded him, saying that he should not be so dereliction of duty, and told him to go back quickly so that there would be time to make amends.

Pei Xingshan only thought that Shi Shuli was thinking of him, so he was very moved.

Thinking about it now, I'm afraid that Shi Shuli wanted to enter the palace wholeheartedly.

But he didn't expect that he suddenly appeared as a stumbling block, so he thought of finding an excuse to drive him away quickly!
It's a pity that he was too innocent at the time, and was played around by this woman.

When he heard her reprimand, instead of being angry, he loved her even more.

Then, he revealed his elopement plan.

Seeing that he looked serious, not like he was joking, Shi Shuli suddenly fell silent.

She didn't agree to him, nor did she not agree, but she just began to hold the handkerchief, lowered her head and silently wiped away her tears.

Seeing this, Pei Xingshan quickly asked the reason.

Only then did Shi Shuli say that her entry into the palace has been decided, and if the Holy Majesty finds out, she will elope with someone.

Then, everyone in the Shi family might be implicated by her.

It's not that she doesn't love him.

However, with filial piety in the fore, she couldn't put the lives of the whole family at risk for him.

Moreover, even if she really followed him.

In the rest of the time, she will not live a peaceful and happy life.

When you love someone, of course you want the other person to be happy and happy.

So, upon hearing this, Pei Xingshan was speechless for a moment.

He thought about it and felt that Shi Shuli was right.

On the contrary, it was him who acted so recklessly that he almost got her into trouble.

So, under Shi Shuli's painstaking persuasion, Pei Xingshan finally gave up his plan to elope with her, and dragged his extremely exhausted body back.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't disappointed.

But Pei Xingshan didn't stop liking Shi Shuli because of this.

On the contrary, he felt that this woman was so gentle and kind.

It is so beautiful and charming.

It is worth his lifetime to love.

Thinking about it now, he was really stupid at that time!
Maybe after coaxing him to leave, the woman was greatly relieved!
love him?

Maybe I still liked it.

But obviously, what she loves more is herself, and those riches and honors!

Moreover, the house leak happened to rain all night.

It was only after Pei Xingshan rushed back exhaustedly that he discovered that his subordinates were still staying where they were.

It stands to reason that they should set off and move on.

Even if he is not there, the adjutant is still there, and the adjutant will not stay where he is waiting for him.

After all, the soldiers at the border are still waiting for rations!
As a result, not only did the subordinates not leave, but the surrounding area of ​​the camp was also a mess of broken grass and trees.

When the adjutant saw him, instead of accusing him of dereliction of duty, he was overjoyed!
As if he had caught some savior, he jumped up and grabbed his arm tightly, and said with tears streaming down his face:

"My lord, you are finally back!"

"What happened?"

Pei Xingshan asked calmly, but in fact, he had already started to panic in his heart.

The adjutant then spoke eloquently.

It was said that on the night he left without permission, they were attacked by a group of bandits.

Things like bandits robbing food often happen, so the subordinates selected to deliver food and grass are also well-trained soldiers.

At first, they were not flustered, thinking that this time it would be the same as before, and they would soon be able to work together to drive the bandits away.

However, just when the adjutant wanted to report the matter to Pei Xingshan, he unexpectedly discovered that Pei Xingshan had disappeared!

He thought that Pei Xingshan had gone nearby to relieve himself, so he quickly sent someone to look for it.

But the people who came back said that they searched all over the neighborhood, but they couldn't find the sign of the grain and grass officer.

The adjutant suddenly panicked.

He thought that Pei Xingshan was robbed by these bandits in advance, the so-called capture the king first!
As a result, the adjutant, who was jealous, did not order his subordinates to resist the bandits in time, but came forward in person, eager to negotiate with the bandits.

The bandit was dumbfounded at first, but after hearing what the adjutant meant, he was secretly happy in his heart!
Hey, the backbone of their feelings disappeared inexplicably, so they thought they were kidnapped by bandits like them!
Naturally, the bandits would not be so stupid as to clarify this misunderstanding. Instead, they made the mistake and proposed that as long as the adjutant gave them half of the rations, they would release their ration officer.

The reason why they didn't ask for all the food and grass was because these bandits also knew that these were all members of the imperial court, and if they really offended the imperial court, they would be driven out and killed.

The so-called everything stays on the line, so we can meet again in the future!

When the adjutant heard this, he hesitated.

But after thinking about it again, this grain and grass officer is not an ordinary person, but a noble young master with family background and background.

In case something goes wrong, even if it's just a bastard, for the sake of the family's face, the Pei family will not let him go.

So, after a little thought, the adjutant agreed to the bandits' request.

The bandits happily moved away the grain and grass, but did not return their grain and grass officials as promised.

Only then did the adjutant realize that he had been duped, and quickly sent someone to chase after him, but it was too late.

He didn't know what to do for a while, so he had to stay where he was, and while sending people to look for Pei Xingshan, he also sent people to track down the bandits.

As for the itinerary, it was delayed.
