Chapter 51 Strengthening the Guard
"Hmph, you're running fast."
Looking at the pair of master and servant leaving, Jiang Changbai did not speak with anger in his eyes.
At this time, Deputy General Liu also hurried into the plum garden.
Vice General Liu has always been in charge of the guarding of the General's Mansion, so after hearing the movement, he immediately came to the plum garden, saw Jiang Changbai standing in the yard, and hurried forward to salute, "Young General?"
Lieutenant General Liu also stayed in the barracks before, so he is more used to calling Jiang Changbai Major General.
After saluting Jiang Changbai, Vice General Liu said softly, "Young General, did someone break into the General's Mansion?"
"It's just a little thief, I've beaten him away."
"Little thief?"
Hearing Jiang Changbai's words, Deputy General Liu's eyes were full of surprise. In the entire capital, who doesn't know that the people in the General's Mansion are outstanding in martial arts, even the guards' followers have a little kung fu, so ordinary petty thieves never dare to attack the General's Mansion. idea.
Seeing the expression in Vice General Liu's eyes, Jiang Changbai coughed lightly, and then said in a low voice, "In the future, pay attention to strengthening the guards in the mansion, especially the gardens of the young ladies."
"yes."
"Okay, you go back and rest first."
"yes."
"Major General, aren't you going back to rest?"
Lieutenant General Liu nodded, but seeing Jiang Changbai sitting down in the yard, he couldn't help but speak.
Hearing what he said, Jiang Changbai said casually, "It's okay, it's still early, I'll sit down for a while, you go back to sleep first."
What if he leaves and that King Cheng comes back?
So he has to stay here.
Outside the wall.
Han Feng finally caught up with Xiao Nanye, looking at the man who got on his horse, he couldn't help asking, "Master, are we going to leave like this?"
"if not?"
Sitting on the horseback, Xiao Nanye gave him a cold look.
The latter touched his nose and said quickly, "It's getting late, let's go back first."
"Master, tomorrow is the eldest princess's birthday banquet, and the birthday gift you returned is not ready yet."
"Go back and take it from the warehouse... You said that there will be a birthday party at the princess' mansion tomorrow?"
As if remembering something, Xiao Nanye suddenly looked at Han Feng.
Seeing his master's expression of deep meaning, Han Feng shrank his neck, took two steps back, and then nodded.
"After returning to the mansion in a while, go find a valuable gift and send it to the eldest princess's mansion, so that the imperial sister can make a post for Jiang's mansion."
"yes."
Thinking of seeing Jiang Peihuan again tomorrow, Xiao Nanye's expression looked much better in an instant.
In the early morning, the sky is slightly bright, and the plum garden.
"Master?"
Yue'er had been preparing to go to Jiang Peihuan's room early, when she just walked to the yard, she saw a person sitting on the stone bench.
It was Jiang Changbai who saw clearly that she didn't cry out.
Jiang Changbai often slept outside when he was on the battlefield, so he fell asleep while sitting up last night.
Hearing Yue'er's voice, he opened his eyes, glanced at the sky, and said softly, "Dawn?"
Seeing his movements, Yue'er stepped forward to salute, then smiled and said, "Master, why are you here?"
It looks like he just woke up.
"I'll walk around casually. By the way, should Huan'er wake up? Tell Huan'er that I have something to tell her."
"Yes, I'm going to see if the eldest lady is awake."
Jiang Peihuan woke up when she heard the sound outside, and when she saw Yueer walk into the room, she asked directly, "What's going on outside?"
"Miss, the young master is here."
"Brother?"
"I look at the young master, as if he has been sitting outside all night."
When she said the last sentence, Yue'er lowered her voice, and Jiang Peihuan's eyes showed a bit of surprise.
After washing up briefly, she looked at Yue'er and said, "You go and ask the elder brother to come in."
"yes."
As soon as Jiang Changbai entered the door, Jiang Peihuan found that he was still wearing the same clothes as last night. Thinking of last night, Jiang Peihuan's eyes flickered.
She probably knows why Jiang Changbai sat in her yard all night.
"Brother, what do you need from me?"
After Jiang Changbai sat down, Jiang Peihuan looked at him and spoke.
Jiang Changbai's eyes were a bit tangled. After thinking for a few seconds, he looked at Jiang Peihuan and said, "Huan'er, what do you think of His Royal Highness Cheng Wang?"
"Huan'er, although His Royal Highness Cheng Wang is outstanding in appearance, he has a high status. If you are with him, your life will be cumbersome in the future. You have a quiet temperament and are not suitable for an overly complicated family."
Before Jiang Peihuan could speak, Jiang Changbai couldn't help persuading her.
Hearing what he said, Jiang Peihuan couldn't help chuckling, looking at Jiang Changbai, she chuckled softly, "Brother, did you just sit in my garden all night just to tell me this?"
Seeing the smile in Jiang Peihuan's eyes, Jiang Changbai showed a bit of embarrassment, but soon showed a serious expression, "You are still laughing, I saw King Cheng come out of your room last night."
Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan put away her smile, and then said in a low voice, "Brother, I, King Cheng, are not what you think. Moreover, I don't have any intention of marrying at present, so you can rest assured, Brother."
"You are still young, don't worry about your husband and son-in-law."
Seeing that Jiang Peihuan didn't have such thoughts, Jiang Changbai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Jiang Peihuan nodded obediently, "Brother, don't worry, I will listen..."
"Miss?"
Before Jiang Peihuan finished speaking, the door was pushed open by Lu'er. Seeing her appearance, Yue'er beside her frowned, "The young master and young lady are talking, what do you look like in such a hurry."
Hearing Yue'er's words, Lu'er quickly lowered her voice, "Miss, I know I was wrong."
"Okay, pay more attention next time. In my case, it's fine for you to be frizzy. If you are like this outside, you will cause trouble sooner or later."
"Tell me, what made you come here in such a hurry?"
Thinking of Lu'er's fate in her previous life, Jiang Peihuan couldn't bear to be harsh on her, said a few words, and then said nothing more.
And Lu'er quickly regained her lively temperament, walked up to Jiang Peihuan, she said with a smile, "Miss, the princess's mansion sent a post to our mansion, inviting us to a banquet."
Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan showed a little surprise in his eyes.
The eldest princess doesn't like to be lively, so during the half-life banquet, she only invites some princes and princesses, and rarely invites ministers.
In the previous life, the eldest princess did not invite the Jiang family to the birthday banquet.
"Huan'er, you haven't recovered from your injuries, so why don't you go."
Jiang Changbai didn't feel much about these, but thinking of Jiang Peihuan's injuries, he couldn't help but speak out.
But Jiang Peihuan hurriedly said, "No, brother, I'm going."
