046 Behind the Gift List

Seeing that Jin Miaomiao looked like the sky was about to fall, Chen Cha burst into laughter. In her impression, Jin Miaomiao was a very positive and optimistic girl. She was always fearless and brave, and would not frown when encountering any difficulties. Her only idea was probably how to challenge difficulties and how to solve them. But now, she, who has always been optimistic, has been hit by everyone and turned into this way. It is quite interesting to think about it.

"Miaomiao was frightened!" Chen Cha leaned into Chen Haolin's ear and lowered his voice, "What we said is too strange to her. She is not a person in the court, and she can't imagine that such a thing can happen. However, I can understand her very well. My thoughts were the same as her before. In my opinion, the Duke of Zhenguo and the Duke of Wuding were the top royal relatives in Daxia, and they have made great military achievements. Even if a villain wants to plot, they have no way to start. But later I realized that the court is dangerous and everything can happen. Heroes will always be plotted by the villain."

"From ancient times to the present, not many loyal ministers and heroes have achieved good deaths. First, the court struggles are too unscrupulous, and if you don't pay attention, you will be plotted against others. Second, the master is very powerful, and the latter is the most deadly. A monarch with a high sense of suspicion and a traitor who likes to fan the flames, the formation of unjust cases is very smooth. Fortunately, our Majesty is not such a petty person, otherwise we would not be able to escape this bad luck. However, when my father told us about these things, you seemed very calm, much better than Jin Miaomiao." Chen Haolin touched Chen Cha's head, "I was thinking at the time that my sister is amazing, and she is definitely a person who can accomplish great things."

"Why? Where did you see it?" Chen Cha touched his face, "I don't know it myself."

"Taishan pressed down on the top but his face remained unchanged." Chen Haolin glanced at Jin Miaomiao, who had not recovered yet, and shook his head, "How could he look like her? Before he could do anything, he was scared to death. If this really happened, wouldn't he be scared to death?"

"Who said I was not scared? After hearing my father's words, I was also very shocked, very shocked, and my heart was like a storm. It was completely beyond my understanding. I just didn't know how to express it. It seemed that nothing was right, so I just didn't say a word." Chen Cha glanced at Xue Ruitian, who was leisurely and leisurely, "To be serious, Brother Xiaotian is the most powerful among us. No matter what he heard, it was like not hearing it. He should eat, drink, and do whatever he should do. It would not affect his mood at all. This is the highest level!"

"There is no way, this is a personal talent. Even if Xiao Cha is envious, he can't do it." Xue Ruitian shook his head proudly, turned his head and threw an apple at Jin Miaomiao, "Hey, that's about it. Don't look too frightened, as if we are bullying you."

"This completely subverts my understanding of the court. I think this kind of intrigue will not appear in our Daxia court. Isn't this unique to Liao or Jin?" Jin Miaomiao still looked in a daze. "We have a Majesty who doesn't take the throne seriously. Are you still worried that someone will rob his dragon throne? Isn't that exactly what he expected?"

"Are you really stupid?" Jin Jing looked at her stupid sister helplessly, sighed heavily, and said, "The emperor has always watched dramas in court battles, and occasionally it will fuel the fire. The more lively the ministers fight, the happier the emperor will be. Although the current emperor will not do this, nor will he allow others to tamper with the Shen family army, if someone from the Shen family army really commits public anger, in order not to show the angry scenes of the ministers, he will still sacrifice this person to take the overall situation." Jin Jing patted his sister's shoulder, "I will not agree to bring you when the marshal, deputy commander, and general return to Beijing to report their duties."

"It seems like I'm so rare." Jin Miaomiao curled her lips, "Xijing is a dragon's and tiger's den for me. It's a place where people can eat people. For simple people like me, don't go there to suffer. Our place is pretty good, I feel comfortable staying there."

"Then you can't stay here for the rest of your life, right?"

"Why can't it?" Jin Miaomiao pouted, "It's decided that I won't take a step out of Jiaping Pass unless I want to go into seclusion!"

"you……"

"Oh, okay, Lao Jin, please let her go. Her cleverness is used in medical skills, so she will naturally appear a little stupid in other places. However, if she thinks about it a little, she should be able to figure it out. You don't have to worry." Xue Ruitian shook his head at Jin Jing and said, "Let's talk about some serious business. The gift list for the New Year, Xiaocha should be ready, let's take it out and let's consider it. If there is no problem, take advantage of the weather in these days, let the shadows set off as soon as possible, and maybe when they come back, they can catch up with us for the New Year."

"Xiaotian said it well, and I have the same idea. If you make sure, let them prepare, go and go early, and it is best to come back before New Year's Eve."

Shen Haolin looked at Shen Cha, and Shen Cha nodded slightly, picked up the prepared gift list, and walked to Xue Ruitian.

"There are not many families who need to give gifts to the Duke of Zhenguo. Apart from His Majesty, Empress Dowager, and a few princes who celebrate the New Year in Xijing, there are no ones who need to be managed. The main thing is that Brother Xiaotian, you have relatively many relatives in the Marquis of Wuding, and there are many residences that need to be moved around. The things on these orders are ordered according to the gift lists in previous years. If you need to delete or add them, Brother Xiaotian will decide it yourself!"

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, let me see!" Xue Ruitian nodded, lowered his head and began to flip the gift list in his hand. Hongye had already prepared the pen and put it on the small table. While he was looking, he took the pen and deleted it. In a short while, he finished reading these gift lists and handed the modified gift list to Shen Cha again. "Okay, let's prepare this."

"This..." Shen Cha took it over and flipped it out. Seeing that there were much more things deleted on it than the things added, he frowned slightly, "Brother Xiaotian, is this okay? Will it seem too shabby?"

"Sweet?" Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows, "No, it's not shabby at all. In my opinion, it's already very good. Our Jiaping Pass is a border, and life is hard, not as rich as the noble family of Xijing. It's good to be able to come up with these things. If you follow the preparations you wrote, it's not appropriate. Maybe people not only don't appreciate it, but also think that we have done something bad, such as deducting military pay. If they have such an idea, it's not a good thing for us. Besides..." A trace of disdain flashed across Xue Ruitian's face, "You are as clear as me. It should be appropriate to summarize them with snobs, right? I still remember that something happened at home that year, and what kind of face they had!"

"Brother Xiaotian!" Chen Cha looked at Xue Ruitian who suddenly became excited, worriedly, "Oh Da Nian, let's not mention those unhappy things, okay?"

"I didn't want to make myself uncomfortable. Isn't this a waste of time? Just in time, I can also tell Jin Miaomiao about this. People's hearts are not just in the court. The struggles within the family are even more terrifying than those in the court. After all, those who want you to kill you in the court are not your blood relatives, but those who want your life in the family are all your relatives. When you meet, you have to salute obediently and call me uncle and aunt." Xue Ruitian sighed softly, "I know that you have been considering my feelings over the years, so you will avoid topics about my mother and my family. In fact, there is no need to do that, I won't care."

"Brother Xiaotian..."

"Don't worry, I'm fine!" Xue Ruitian patted Chen Cha's arm, "Some things will come to light sooner or later, right?"

"..." Chen Cha looked at him and nodded firmly, "Yes, I really want to have a day sooner or later."

"So, I just need to wait quietly for that day to arrive. As for those in my mother's house... I give gifts during the holidays, which proves that I am still alive and live a good life, that's all."

"What does this mean?" Jin Miaomiao looked at Xue Ruitian with a confused look on her face, "Your mother's family should not be your grandparents or grandmother's family? Almost all the relatives of your father's family are alive. They should be the closest people you are, right? How could you..."

"When the incident happened, you followed Master Huilan to travel around and was not in Jiaping Pass City. It's not surprising that you didn't know these things. At that time, the elders of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and the Marquis of Wuding's Mansion had all passed away. The backbone of the entire Shen family army was the three of us." Xue Ruitian pointed to himself, Chen Cha, and then looked up at Chen Haolin with a expressionless face. "At that time, the Liao army was approaching, and the three of us had to bite the bullet and lead the Shen family army to the battlefield."

"I know this!" Jin Miaomiao lay on the small table in front of him, nodded, and said, "You have become famous in a battle. Everyone said that although the old Duke and the old Marquis are outdated, the Duke Zhenguo Mansion, the Marquis of Wuding, and the Shen family army will still stand firm and become the most powerful barrier for our Daxia to resist the Liao and Jin dynasties. This is everyone's trust in you!"

"Thank you for your trust, but you don't know how difficult it was for us in that battle back then." Xue Ruitian sighed and looked at Chen Cha, "You can say it now, right? Xiao Cha was so stressed that he almost cried. However, she was a guy who was not happy and angry. She sat in the tent with no expression on her face, and she looked very calm. If I hadn't accidentally seen her eyes turn red, I wouldn't have noticed her emotional changes!"

"For such a big thing, it should be a monster who is not nervous, right?" Chen Cha walked back to Chen Haolin and sat down, and handed him the modified gift list. "If I remember correctly, our Marquis of Wuding could not sit still at all. He circled around the big tent, and then ran outside to inquire about the enemy's situation. He ran back and forth more than ten times." Chen Cha looked at Chen Haolin, "Right?"

"Yeah!" Chen Haolin nodded, "Eleven, the last time finally got what he wanted."

"That was the first time in our lives that we commanded independently. We lost the battle. The Duke of Zhenguo, the Marquis of Wuding, the Shen family army, and even the Daxia no longer existed. If we win, we are the veritable young marshals and young generals. Fortunately, God has mercy, we tried our best to win that battle and severely attacked the Liao army. However, in that battle, the soldiers from us to the lower part were injured to varying degrees, even your brother..." He looked at Jin Miaomiao, "Like us, the armor is full of blood, there are also those of our own, and those of the Liao army, which is particularly embarrassing."

"Yes!" Jin Jing said with a sigh, "It has been many years since that battle, but when I think about it, it seems to have happened yesterday."

"After the war, I returned to the mansion covered in blood. All I saw was the home that was chaotic, and the servants in the mansion were kneeling on the ground tremblingly. My first reaction was that the Liao people took advantage of the opportunity to fight with us and sent people to seize our retreat and destroy our mansion. However, when I saw that I wanted to call my uncle and aunties appeared in sight, I didn't know what to do. When they saw me coming back, they didn't come to greet me, but asked me why I didn't die on the battlefield and why I still had the face to come back."

"Why...how is this happening?" Jin Miaomiao couldn't believe her ears, "Why?"

"Why?" Xue Ruitian sneered, "Of course I want to take the Marquis of Wuding for himself. If Song Qiyun and Xia Jiu had not sent me back, the shadow sent by Hongye and Xiaocha would not be able to control the bandits. As soon as he saw the prince supporting me, his arrogant look changed instantly, lowered his eyebrows and nodded and bowed. It was as disgusting as he would."

"There is arrogance at the beginning and the latter is respectful. If you want to be more humble, you will be more humble!"

"Hongye is right!" Xue Ruitian agreed with Hongye's statement, "Qiyun and Xiaojiu scolded them away. Since that day, they have never been to Jiapingguan City again. They also know that I hate them and even hate them, so they are very self-aware of it and do not appear in front of me. Now, it is good that I can remember them and give them a New Year gift. If I can't remember them and ignore them, they will definitely be unhappy and say bad things about me behind my back, but they can't do anything to me. They were unable to steal the Marquis of Wuding from me back then, which is even more impossible now."

"Brother Xiaotian is right. I was negligent. Giving them such a good gift is just a slap in things. It's better to keep it for us to enjoy it ourselves."

"What I mean is that their taste is not good. From their eyes, you are not as affordable as a cart of cabbage!"

"Even if the Marquis really gave him a truck of cabbage, they would continue happily, and they couldn't even say a word of complaint." Hongye sneered, "After all, they are not as valuable as a truck of cabbage!"
