Chapter 210: Prince Song's excuse to see his aunt

Geng Shiming understood it very well and responded immediately.

"Your Highness is right. The soldiers of the Pei family army have been guarding Hanzhou and the people of Dasui for many years. The place where they are should indeed be better protected so that it can be more hidden. Therefore, Your Highness is right, and we have no objection."

After he spoke, the officials also said the same thing. Song Shi didn't care about these. Now he was thinking about meeting Jiang Shiyuan. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake himself up. Then he saw Pei Zisu and everyone else coming out.

He was in the lead, and behind him were the deputy generals of the Pei family army, but Pei Ziyao was not among them, and naturally there was no possibility of Jiang Shiyuan being there.

When Song Shi saw this, his face darkened, but the King of Han didn't care much about her appearance or not, and was more concerned about Pei Ziyao.

"Where's Ah Yao? Why hasn't he come back?"

"She is training troops. The trip back and forth will take several days, so I didn't let her go back. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

The King of Han was well aware of the situation of the cavalry trained by Pei Ziyao, so he nodded when he heard Pei Zisu say this. After all, it was just for everyone to see, and it would not really delay the progress of training, so he said with a smile.

"Her obsession with training soldiers is comparable to your enthusiasm back then. It looks like it won't be long before Dasui has another famous female general."

Hearing this, a hint of satisfaction flashed across Pei Laoshuai's face.

Although he did not have a deep relationship with Madam Pei, he had to admit that the three children she gave birth to were indeed outstanding. With Pei Zisu in charge of the army, the twins could also stand on their own, but they were still a little young and needed more experience, so he said this modestly to the King of Han.

"It's just some minor fights. Your Majesty, please don't brag about it anymore. I'm really afraid that they will be so proud of themselves ...

"Master Pei is wrong. The three brothers and sisters are indeed amazing, so they deserve a few more compliments, don't they?"

Seeing this, Marshal Pei didn't say much. The King of Han knew a lot about the Pei family, so to a certain extent he would be more inclined towards the three Pei Zisu siblings who were in a more difficult situation. Many times he would think of himself as having been reborn from adversity in such a situation, so he was particularly caring towards the three of them.

Marshal Pei was even calmer. As long as it was his family who was in power in the end, he didn't care. When everyone saw this, their hearts were once again confirmed that the King of Han really cared about Pei Zisu and his brothers and sisters-in-law more than anything else.

The Prince of Han frowned, thinking that his father had gone too far!
In the past, he would not have said this in front of the officials of Hanzhou, but today, the officials present were all from Xijing City. Wouldn't this put him on the spot? So he was very angry!
But he couldn't say much in this situation. Seeing this, Song Shi tried to smooth things over but asked directly.

"I don't know where my aunt is. I have a letter from the Crown Prince's wife that I want to give to her. The Crown Prince's wife has reminded me many times before that I must meet my aunt and express my longing for her."

Except for the officials in Xijing City who knew a little about the relationship between the second daughter of the Jiang family and Prince Chun's Mansion, the officials in Hanzhou were not very clear and thought that Prince Song was speaking the truth. Unfortunately, Pei Zisu did not respond. His eyes seemed to see through his soul, and even Song Shi, who had lived for decades longer, could not resist. In the end, he forced himself to calm down and exuded some of the majesty that a regent should have, which made Pei Zisu restrain his emotions a little.

"Thank you for your concern, Prince and Princess, but my wife has been feeling unwell recently, so I asked someone to send her back to the mansion in Hanzhou to rest. You came at an unfortunate time, so if you want to send a letter home, just give it to me and I will have someone deliver it when the time comes."

Can’t see you again?

At this moment, Song Shiye seriously suspected that Jiang Shiyuan was deliberately avoiding him. When he thought of this, his patience disappeared. However, due to the presence of so many people, he seemed to have no reason to get angry, so he could only reply with a forced smile.

"It's better for me to personally deliver the letter to my aunt. I also brought a few private words that are not suitable for outsiders to say, so I will wait until I return to Hanzhou to visit my aunt's house. By then, I hope that my aunt can be really in the house, instead of tricking me to run back and forth."

"You are joking, my Lord. How can you keep running back and forth? We have been out for several months. Now that the inspection is complete, we should report back to His Majesty as soon as possible. So we should set off the day after tomorrow."

Geng Shiming said something appropriate, which made Pei Zisu smile. He took a look and thought that the people in the Geng family were also smart, and he felt relieved for a moment.

"So soon? Didn't Uncle Han say that he wanted to keep us in Hanzhou to wait for my cousin's wedding?"

Song Shi had finally come to Hanzhou, so he was not willing to leave like this, so he opened his mouth to say something, but Geng Shiming did not respond and spoke bluntly.

"It's only May now, and we can't stay until mid-June. If the prince doesn't want to leave, then we'll go first. But when we leave, His Majesty has a lot of expectations for the prince. If you really stay here and don't go back, I'm afraid it will be hard to explain in the future."

Looking at Geng Shiming's annoying face, Song Shi wanted to punch him!
But there were so many people here, even if he had countless thoughts, he could only endure them. Pei Zisu smiled sarcastically, too lazy to spend all his energy on him, and then he made a gesture of invitation to the King of Han and the others, and then everyone followed him into the camp.

The Pei family army's camp exuded a sense of majesty and uniformity.

Geng Shiming had previously had the honor of witnessing a military training exercise among the defenders in Xijing City, but for some reason he felt that the already very powerful defenders at the time were like playing house in front of Pei's army.

Perhaps it was because all the members of Pei's army had actually fought on the battlefield, so even though everyone was holding a wooden stick or a wooden gun, it looked like they were holding a deadly weapon, and no one dared to underestimate them.

Deputy General Ge stood on the stage, shouting again and again.

The soldiers below also followed the drill. The neat movements and loud voices made the visitors see it with their own eyes and be shocked in their hearts.

The King of Han was especially happy that he had such a sharp sword as the Pei Army. Marshal Pei took a look and felt that his son's ability to train soldiers had indeed improved, so satisfaction was also revealed in his eyes.
