Chapter 724 Return home!

“Now that you know my name, can you talk nicely now?”

Seeing that the wounded soldier on the opposite side knew that he was Shangguan Hongyuan, he lowered his head and kept silent. Shangguan Hongyuan said lightly:
The wounded soldier hesitated for a moment, but did not raise his head to speak. Seeing this, Shangguan Tingshu did not stand by him and slapped him twice on the face. Feeling the burning pain on his face, the wounded soldier immediately looked at Shangguan Tingshu viciously and said:

"You bastard, you'd better pray to God to protect you and keep you from falling into my hands in the future!"

Seeing that this wounded soldier had fallen into such a state and dared to threaten him here, Shangguan Tingshu was immediately furious and wanted to draw the sword at his waist and kill this ignorant Fengwu Army prisoner. Seeing this, Shangguan Hongyuan stopped him and said:

"enough!"

Although he wanted to cut the wounded Fengwu Army soldier in front of him into pieces with a provocative and smug look on his face, but after hearing Shangguan Hongyuan's order, Shangguan Tingshu finally suppressed his anger and turned his head away.

After carefully examining the wounded soldier in front of him, Shangguan Hongyuan smiled slightly and asked:
"What kind of drug did Ye Mingsheng give you to make you so devoted to him? Why are you still seeking death in such a situation?"

Hearing Shangguan Hongyuan reveal his thoughts, the injured soldier suddenly panicked and gritted his teeth but still said nothing. When Shangguan Tingshu heard what Shangguan Hongyuan said, he suddenly realized that he almost fell into the trap of this thief. He immediately glared at the wounded soldier hatefully...

"Tell me! What is your identity?" Shangguan Hongyuan continued to ask with a smile:

In response to Shangguan Hongyuan's question, the wounded soldier still lowered his head and was unwilling to speak. Seeing this, Shangguan Hongyuan was not angry and said calmly:

"There are only a few high-ranking generals in the Fengwu Army on the Yunbing battlefield. It's not difficult to find out your identity. Why do you have to pretend to be deaf and dumb and let others laugh at you?"

Hearing this, the wounded soldier's face changed. After a few seconds, he finally raised his head and looked at Shangguan Hongyuan and said:

"I will never change my name, I am Ma Jianzhang, the commander of the Second Division of the Fengwu Army!"

When Shangguan Tingshu heard that the wounded soldier was just a commander, he suddenly showed some disappointment on his face. He thought that this wounded soldier could be a big fish. In this way, bringing him back to the Luoan court could be considered an achievement and help to save face for this Eastern Expedition.

However, if he was just a commander, it would be hard to brag about it!
Compared to Shangguan Tingshu who had disappointment written all over his face, Shangguan Hongyuan looked calm and indifferent. He took a sip from his teacup and said:
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell us. We can just investigate it ourselves! It's just a matter of a few days. But if you can tell me on your own initiative, I will be very happy!"

After saying that, Shangguan Hongyuan waved his hand, and several guards immediately suppressed the wounded soldier. After they left, Shangguan Tingshu asked impatiently:

"Uncle, you said this person is more than just the commander of the Fengwu Army?"

Shangguan Hongyuan said leisurely:

"certainly························"

Hearing this, Shangguan Tingshu asked curiously:
"Uncle, why do you think so?"

Shangguan Hongyuan patiently explained:
"When this person heard that we wanted to check his background, he said that he was Ma Jianzhang. It was obvious that he was afraid that we would find out his background, so he deliberately said that to cover up his true identity. Since he was willing to admit that he was a commander, his true identity is probably far beyond that of a commander!"

"Besides, he deliberately spoke wildly and wanted to die as soon as he entered the room. It is very likely that he was afraid that we would use his identity to make a fuss!"

After hearing Shangguan Hongyuan's analysis, Shangguan Tingshu gave a thumbs up and praised with admiration:
"Uncle Jiang is indeed old and experienced! I admire you very much!"

After saying this, he seemed to have thought of something and asked Shangguan Hongyuan:
"Uncle, since this man is a senior general of the Fengwu Army, he probably knows a lot of information about the Fengwu Army. How about I just use some tricks on him and make sure he tells me everything he knows!"

As soon as these words came out, Shangguan Hongyuan waved his hand and said:
“If the Yunbing Battle was not over, it would be right for you to do this. Squeezing a little intelligence out of him might change the entire course of the war. But now the Yunbing Battle is over, and our army is unable to continue the attack in the short term. Even if we can squeeze intelligence out of this person, it won’t make much sense…”

Shangguan Tingshu also felt that what he said made sense, but when he thought of the unreasonable provocation that person had just made against him, he became furious again and asked Shangguan Hongyuan for instructions:

"Uncle, how should we deal with this person?"

Shangguan Hongyuan was silent for a while before he slowly said:

"Keep a good eye on him and don't let him commit suicide! If he wants something, give it to him as long as it's not excessive. Send a good doctor to check his leg and try not to let his injured leg become disabled!"

Shangguan Tingshu was stunned when he heard this. He was extremely shocked and surprised. Is this something his uncle would say?

Looking at Shangguan Tingshu like this, Shangguan Hongyuan also understood what he was thinking. He patted his shoulder and said earnestly:
"Ting Shu, you must understand that the battlefield is the battlefield! But whether it is the martial arts world or the government, it is more about human relationships and worldly wisdom!"

Shangguan Tingshu still found it difficult to understand the meaning of Shangguan Hongyuan's teachings. Although he wanted to say something, seeing Shangguan Hongyuan's somewhat tired expression, he changed his words and said:
"Nephew understands. I'll go down and give the order right away! Uncle, you should have a good rest!"

Hearing Shangguan Tingshu's answer, Shangguan Hongyuan nodded with satisfaction.

After a while, Shangguan Tingshu walked out of the room and looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance. Although he was still a little angry about the provocation of the wounded soldier just now, thinking of his uncle's instructions, in order not to make his uncle angry, Shangguan Tingshu sighed and murmured in a low voice:
“You better be a high-ranking official, you bastard. Otherwise, I will skin you alive…”

Yijing, Governor's Mansion

In Pei Zhixiu's room in the evening, Ye Mingsheng rested his head on the beautiful woman's jade back with a look of enjoyment, while Pei Zhixiu carefully massaged the acupoints on his head.

Ye Mingsheng does not have many hobbies, but massage is his favorite one. Ye Mingsheng has never concealed this hobby and wants people to give him massages almost every day. For this reason, his wives and concubines in his family also secretly learn massage techniques, hoping to give Ye Mingsheng a better experience and please Ye Mingsheng.

Among the massage techniques of his wives and concubines at home, Ye Mingsheng was most satisfied with Pei Zhixiu. He was physically exhausted and the women in his family were generally weak. Although Pei Zhixiu was not very strong, she was very precise in controlling the acupoints and was very good at controlling the strength. Every time Pei Zhixiu finished massaging, Ye Mingsheng felt refreshed and as if he was floating in the air!
After leading his troops back to Yijing yesterday evening, Ye Mingshang accompanied An Miaoyi for a night as usual. Today, he came to Pei Zhixiu to talk to her from the heart. Although he had been fighting outside during this period, under Ye Cheng’s supervision, Ye Mingsheng, who took medicine on time every day, also recovered his health. However, his physical and mental fatigue still needed someone to comfort him...

Pei Zhixiu casually pushed away Ye Mingsheng's mischievous hand and said calmly:
"You've been out for so long, haven't you eaten enough?"

Ye Mingsheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. He had been leading his troops on the expedition for a month, and the first half of the war in Hebei and Henan had not yet ended. With a powerful enemy at the door, he had no time to relax. It was only after defeating Xu Zhaojie that he picked a small flower and relaxed!
Putting his arm around her slender waist, Ye Mingsheng smelled the natural fragrance of Pei Zhixiu and whispered in her ear:

"Jisu, did you eat the wrong thing again? She's just a little girl. I think she's pretty good. If there's a chance, let her serve you and me well..."

Listening to Ye Mingsheng's meaningful words, Pei Zhixiu seemed to have thought of something. A blush appeared on Bai Xi's cheeks. She twisted the soft flesh on Ye Mingsheng's waist with her jade hands. Seeing Ye Mingsheng grinning, she let go of him again with heartache, but still warned Ye Mingsheng very solemnly:
"You bastard, I told you it's just this once! There won't be a second time in this life! Don't think about it anymore, Bai Yuanyuan, Jinyu, Shen Yutong like this, go find them!"

Seeing Pei Zhixiu's strong reaction, Ye Mingsheng was unwilling to force her to appease him:

“Okay, okay! Don’t let her serve you. I will serve you well later…”

Hearing Ye Mingsheng say strange things again, Pei Zhixiu was a little helpless, but still whispered:

"Jingxuan hasn't fallen asleep yet! Be good and wait a little longer!"

Ye Mingsheng also stopped his actions after hearing this. Seeing Ye Mingsheng's hopeless look, Pei Zhixiu came over and said:

"Didn't the widow feed you?"

After hearing this, Ye Mingsheng was a little confused and asked immediately:
"A widow? What widow?"

Pei Zhixiu thought that Ye Mingsheng was still pretending, so she pinched Ye Mingsheng and said softly:
"Still pretending! What other widows can there be?"

Ye Mingsheng thought about it quickly, and then he suddenly realized and said:

"Are you talking about Jiang Yuyan?"

Seeing that Ye Mingsheng directly said this person's maiden name instead of calling her Wang Jiang, Pei Zhixiu said with a little jealousy:

"Yuyan? That's so affectionate!"

Although he didn't know why Pei Zhixiu was a little jealous today, to be honest, Ye Mingsheng quite enjoyed this feeling. However, he still explained:
"Ji Xiu, you misunderstood. Although I met her, it was all about government affairs..."

Hearing Ye Mingsheng say this, Pei Zhixiu immediately pressed a green finger on Ye Mingsheng's lips, and then Pei Zhixiu said seriously:
"My husband, you once told me that people can deceive their teachers, classmates, even their family members and lovers, but never deceive themselves!"

"As for your relationship with her, I don't care. But as a friendly reminder, some people are very sensitive about this matter and are busy plotting to deal with you, my husband, and make you pay the price for it!"

After hearing this, Ye Mingsheng also understood what it meant. There was a hint of expectation in his eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he said to Pei Zhixiu:

"Did they look for you?"

Hearing this, Pei Zhixiu glared at Ye Mingsheng again and said:

"I said it won't happen again!"

Ye Mingsheng was immediately disappointed, and Pei Zhixiu spoke to himself:

"Bai Yuanyuan, Jinyu, they've brought Shen Yutong with them, don't play too crazy, your health is the most important!"

Ye Mingsheng nodded slightly and said:

"Don't worry, I understand!"

Pei Zhixiu was relieved after receiving Ye Mingsheng's affirmative answer. After a stick of incense, she coaxed Xiao Jingxuan to sleep. The two of them felt like newlyweds after a short separation. After some sex, Ye Mingsheng in sage mode said with feeling:

“Jingxuan is a smart kid! He will be able to do great things in the future…”

When he returned home yesterday, An Miaoyi immediately arranged for little Jingren to recite enlightenment reading materials such as Three Character Classic and Thousand Character Classic to him. To be honest, little Jingren recited very well. Although he stumbled a little, it was generally very fluent.

Although little Jingren behaved very well, Ye Mingsheng was not happy. He knew very well that this was what An Miaoyi had imposed on the child, making little Jingren's childhood, which should have been leisurely and innocent, filled with these enlightenment books. He could feel that little Jingren did not like these!

Regarding this, Ye Mingsheng also plans to have a good talk with An Miaoyi in the near future. An Miaoyi has good ideas. She wants little Jingren to grow faster, learn more knowledge, and understand more principles, but this process requires methods and approaches!

If An Miaoyi is a tiger mom, then Pei Zhixiu's parenting philosophy is the opposite of hers. She is very Buddhist and doesn't care about anything. When little Jingren was reciting the Three Character Classic and Thousand Character Classic with great difficulty, little Jingxuan was playing like crazy and then fell asleep after playing!
However, little Jingxuan seemed to be naturally interested in books. When other children were crying and making a fuss, he actually lay on the book and looked at it with curiosity. I don’t know if his little head could understand the words written on it.

In addition, little Jingxuan smiled and asked for a hug when he saw him, so Ye Mingsheng also liked this little son very much·······························
