The two sat together.
Shen Li explained his intention.
Pei Yan agreed without saying a word and expressed his full cooperation with Si Yefu.
Next comes the discussion of details.
They chatted for several hours, until the servant knocked on the door and came in to ask if they wanted the kitchen to prepare a midnight snack, and the two stopped temporarily.
Pei Yan invited Shen Li to stay overnight but Shen Li declined.
“It is inconvenient to disturb the governor, and it is a busy time when the night tour envoys return today.”
Pei Yan was stunned, “The Night Traveler is back today?”
Shen Li knew from his tone that he didn’t know the news yet.
Also, the night tour envoys who go out for training are very secretive whether they leave or come back, and outsiders cannot get the news at all.
Pei Yan couldn’t sit still.
When Shen Li nodded, he stood up and said, “In this case, I will take the director back to his house, and by the way, I will stay at Si Ye’s house for one night.” When he failed to stay, he took the initiative to stay at someone else’s place. If it were the relationship between the two in the past, it would be impossible to even think about it, let alone say it.
At this time, Shen Li also knew that Pei Yan missed his daughter very much, so he agreed.
Pei Yan immediately called someone to prepare the carriage. After he and Shen Li got on the carriage, he asked Shen Li about the night tour envoys’ outing to experience this time.
Of course Shen Li knew that he mainly wanted to know what Pei Rongrong had gone through. Some secrets were inconvenient for him to tell and he didn’t know clearly, so he told Pei Yan that Pei Rongrong was safe and sound, but the casualties of the night traveler were not disclosed.
Pei Yan felt mixed after hearing this. He was relieved that Pei Rongrong was fine, but also felt sorry for the casualties of the night tour envoys. Thinking that Pei Rongrong would continue to experience these dangers in the future, he didn’t want Pei Rongrong to go there in the bottom of his heart.
Even if you want to go, you can make it bigger, right? Pei Yan made excuses for his daughter in his heart. In fact, his daughter was indeed very young.
Shen Li said: “The Night Parade Festival is scheduled to fall on the same day as the Winter Breaking Festival. This is not only in line with the trend, but also because I selfishly want to give these children some comfort early so that they can feel the grace of God and relax their body and mind.”
Pei Yan’s thoughts were brought back by his words, and he seemed to realize something.
The Pohan Festival sounds nice to say, but in fact it was not a good holiday for the people of Beiyuan City in the past. The arrival of the Cold Winter Festival every year means that Beiyuan City has officially entered the cold season. Even if the shops reduce their prices on the Cold Winter Festival, there are still poor families who have to endure the cold to survive the following cold season.
Winter in Beiyuan City is already miserable without the arrival of a cold wave. Once a cold wave sweeps through, some people will inevitably die.
This year’s Beiyuan City is obviously different. The people are not as uneasy about the coming of the Pohan Festival as in previous years. As the prefect, he no longer worries about it. It can be said that he is the most relaxed and happy to welcome the Pohan Festival.
Before Shen Li brought up the Night Parade Festival, he occasionally thought that this year’s Pohan Festival would be peaceful.
Now that there is a plan for the Night Parade Festival, in addition to this tranquility, there is also excitement and prosperity, which is the true beautiful meaning of the Winter Breaking Festival.
