It's getting colder, which is a sign of snow.
Shen Yu let out a white breath in her mouth, loosened her fingers, and the arrow shot into the distance with the wind.
The soldier ran over and planted a small flag on the ground to mark it.
"How far can you shoot with all your strength?" Shen Yu asked Xiao Chuan.
"Let me try." Xiao Chuan held a larger bow in his hand, which ordinary people could not pull. He had great arm strength. He tried his hand and shot an arrow farther than the small flag.
Shen Yu praised: "Good arm strength."
Xiao Chuan said sheepishly: "My brain is not enough, but I have brute strength."
Shen Yu looked at the second small flag planted in the distance and asked, "How sure are you that the shot will reach the origin?"
Xiao Chuan picked up the bow again. This time he didn't shoot to the origin, but the distance was close.
"It depends on the wind strength." Xiao Chuan looked into the distance and said, "If it's northwest wind, the distance will be closer."
Shen Yu nodded, turned her head when she heard footsteps approaching, and frowned immediately.
Jiang Lianzhi approached and said, "Yu Hou."
Shen Yu turned to face him, "Master Jiang should call me Princess Beilin."
Jiang Lianzhi's brows furrowed slightly, "I have something important to discuss with you."
He glanced at Xiao Chuan, asking him to leave.
Shen Yu said nothing, and Xiao Chuan remained motionless.
When he "defected" from Shengjing, he decided not to take orders from anyone in the court. He had only one master, and that was Shen Yu.
In fact, Shen Yu also happened to have something to ask Jiang Lianzhi. She glanced at Xiao Chuan, and Xiao Chuan left with the knife in his arms. When he passed by Jiang Lian, his eyes lingered on his face, and he even passed by him.
Jiang Lianzhi turned a blind eye to the silent warning and waited for the others to go away before looking towards the wilderness outside the pass.
"Before I left Beijing, the person who sent the gifts came back, and the letter Xie Yun wanted to bring to me was also received." He was referring to the warning that he had killed only one person and returned to report the letter.
This is exactly what Shen Yu wants to talk about.
If the gift was manipulated, there must be someone with ill intentions behind it, perhaps targeting Jiang Lianzhi or Shen Yu.
Shen Yu said calmly: "Master Jiang gave such a big gift, Beilin had no choice but to repay him with the same generous gift."
Jiang Lianzhi was blown by the wind and squinted his eyes slightly, "You all know clearly that the gift has been swayed by others. I received this return gift very unfairly."
"No injustice." Shen Yu said, "I have no friendship with you, so I shouldn't have given you this gift."
Jiang Lianzhi knew that she wanted to completely cut off the relationship with him, but thinking about it carefully, they really had nothing to do with each other in this life.
Jiang Lianzhi said: "I didn't send the body as a gift. I had no ill intentions. What I sent was just household items."
"Does this mean there is no malice?" Shen Yu tilted her head, "Jiang Lianzhi, by returning the hairpin and comb, do you want others to think there is something between you and me?"
"I'm not..."
"Don't deny it in a hurry." Shen Yu interrupted him, "I don't believe that you didn't think of this in your mind."
Jiang Lianzhi was very smart, so smart that he could stand alone in the battle for the throne. No matter who ascended the throne, he could sit firmly in his original position.
How could such a calculating person fail to think of this level?
Jiang Lianzhi was silent. He couldn't explain it. Maybe he didn't think about it at the time, but there was such malice in his heart.
It seemed like it would be nice to have some involvement with her. As long as she was not a stranger, any involvement would be fine.
Shen Yu no longer looked at him, "No matter what you do in Yanliangguan, you and I will not interfere with each other."
Jiang Lianzhi said: "I'm afraid not."
Before he finished speaking, Shen Yuji put the knife on his neck.
Not far away, Jiang Lianzhi's guard saw this and wanted to step forward to rescue him. Xiao Chuan slapped the knife back with the scabbard just a few inches after it was unsheathed.
"Brother, I want to remind you that my master has a bad temper. Don't interfere with things you can't control, or you may get burned."
Shen Yu looked at Jiang Lianzhi and said: "This is Yanliang Pass, not Shengjing. Whether or not I kill you will not change my reputation as a traitor and traitor. If you dare to ruin my business, I will cut off your head." .”
Jiang Lianzhi's expression did not change, he lowered his eyes and glanced at the sharp knife on his neck, "I came here on the emperor's order."
He slowly uttered two words, "Discuss and make peace."
Shen Yu's expression changed immediately, "Whose suggestion was it?"
"The queen's brother is now the uncle of the state." Jiang Lianzhi asked: "Can you put down the sword now?"
Shen Yu's rhythm was disrupted. She put Yin Feng back into the scabbard and asked, "Why did Li Zhaonian send you here?"
Jiang Lianzhi said without hesitation, "I invited myself to come to discuss peace."
Dazhou has not yet been defeated, and even if the army is pressing down, it is far from the point where a fight cannot be fought. If he proposes peace at this moment, he believes that he has the upper hand. Shen Yu will never allow such a thing to happen depending on the other party's conditions.
Jiang Lianzhi looked at Shen Yu who was thinking, and suddenly asked: "They labeled you a traitor and traitor, but you still want to guard the border for them. Can you repay evil with kindness and forgive them for everyone?"
This question was endless.
Shen Yu was too lazy to answer him.
She is not repaying evil with kindness, she is avenging her father and the soldiers, and defeating the nightmare entrenched in her body.
Shen Yu said: "I won't agree to peace talks."
"This is also the reason why I invited myself here." Jiang Linzhi looked at her, "If you have time, I would like to talk to you about this matter."
Chang Liu walked back and forth at the entrance of the courtyard, where he could see Shen Yu and Jiang Lianzhi talking.
He clearly remembered the kidnapping of the princess by the man named Jiang. This man named Jiang was plotting against the princess.
"It's been half an hour, why haven't we finished talking yet? It's almost dinner time. Does he want to eat with us? I firmly disagree. Our prince asked me to guard the princess. "
"Why does a grown man named Jiang talk so much nonsense? Is there anything he can't say in just a few sentences? He insists on babbling. I have never seen such a long-winded man."
Xiao Chuan picked his ears. This was the first time he saw someone who kept nagging and talked nonsense about others.
Over there, Jiang Lianzhi finally stood up and stood up to say goodbye. When he passed the door, Changliu snorted to show his dissatisfaction.
When people walked out of the courtyard, Changliu immediately ran over, "Princess, that person named Jiang, I snorted so loudly, is he deaf? He actually nodded to me, can't he see that I hate him?" "
Shen Yu smiled, "There are some snacks in the house, let's go eat them to calm down."
As soon as Changliu heard about food, he forgot everything.
Xiao Chuan then said, "Princess, what is the idea of this person named Jiang?"
Xiao Chuan was talked about by Chang Liu for a long time, his ears were calloused, and he even unconsciously followed Chang Liu and called the person named Jiang.
Shen Yu stood up, "There is no peace in the imperial court. The peace negotiation faction has won the battle. If Jiang Ji doesn't invite him to come, the peace negotiation will be a foregone conclusion."
Xiao Chuan frowned and said: "That means that Jiang didn't want to negotiate for peace, so he could only occupy the position of envoy. It will be up to him to decide whether the negotiations will be successful. This way, the peace negotiators can people’s plans failed.”
