Chapter 42: The Stables

Qin Xuan has almost taken turns throwing the people around her as sandbags in the past few days, and she will never be short of human sandbags. She was now a target in her own army, and several people were aiming to defeat her. Of course, the people who defeated her, except for Murong Hyun last time, have not appeared until now.

Qin Xuan played and played with his comrades for a while, and occasionally went to find Gailou Huya, Gailou Huya knew that he might have to go to Goguryeo during this time, and he worked hard in martial arts, and when he saw Qin Xuan coming, the two basically spent their time on the school field.

There is a general who is willing to spar with his own soldiers, who is not willing to ask for advice, Qin Xuan went to build a building and tiger teeth, and there were many more people around him than when he was in the personal soldiers.

After two months, the weather was a little warmer than before, and Murong Hyun led his troops to the battle.

Murong has a lot of family members and talents, but there are not many that can reassure King Yan. This time, he sent his son and nephew over, and a few other military advisors from the family to speak out, and it seemed to be complete.

After Murong Qi knew about it, he felt the same bitterness in his heart as if he had swallowed Coptis chinensis. After the Yongjia Rebellion in the Central Plains, Goguryeo and Yuwen Duanbu Xianbei besieged the Great Thorn City together under the instigation of the Pingzhou Thorn History, but they used the method of the Qin State to deal with the Six Kingdoms at that time, so that they could withdraw their troops.

Murong Xianbei hates Goguryeo and looks down on Goguryeo, but Goguryeo is really not so easy to fight. Facing Murong Kui, his uncle, Murong Qi didn't dare to reveal what he thought in his heart, but he inevitably asked Murong Hyun in private. Let's see if Murong Hyun has confidence in his heart.

Murong Hyun only comforted this cousin a lot, and didn't say much about the rest, so that Murong Qi could prepare for the expedition with peace of mind.

The main general will go out to fight, as a personal soldier, he naturally has to keep up, Qin Xuan doesn't want to clean up anything by herself, because there are slaves in the army for her to use, what to clean up, just ask the slaves to do it, and she doesn't have to bother. What she had to worry about was...... This time I went back to Goguryeo, and Murong Ming's bear child also came.

Maybe it's because I'm worried that my beloved son will be injured if he leads the army alone, that it will be better if he has his brothers, or because of other reasons. This time, Murong Kui still arranged Murong Ming to fight with his brothers.

When Murong Ming was chasing Zhao Jun last time, Qin Xuan hurt the self-esteem of the young man a little, and there was an extra little brother in the family, Murong Ming was awkward for a while. Qin Xuan hadn't seen him for a while, and when she saw him again, she was shocked.

The thirteen-year-old boy is like a spring bamboo shoot that has absorbed enough rain, and he is rushing to it almost every day. When Qin Xuan was in Yunwu Mountain last time, Murong Ming was still half a head shorter than her, and by the time he said goodbye, he was almost as tall as Qin Xuan.

Murong Ming has been dressed all his life, and he has long hair that randomly picks up a few strands of his forehead and ties them behind him, revealing a slightly childish face.

"Brother, let her be by my side." Murong Ming said directly in Murong Hyun's tent.

Murong Hyun raised his eyes and glanced at his younger brother, "Grandpa has already sent many people, not the same one." Seeing that Murong Ming was about to speak, he simply said, "I'm going to leave soon, don't mess around." โ€

"......" Murong Ming's words that were about to come out were immediately blocked by Murong Hyun.

However, Murong Ming was not depressed, he winked at Qin Xuan, and after making a "you know" expression, Shi Shiran ran out and asked people to prepare for tomorrow's departure.

Murong Hyun glanced at Qin Xuan, her hand was on the knife ring, her face was calm, and she couldn't see what effect Fang Cai's matter had on her.

Murong Hyun had a smile on his face, "Tomorrow departure, you have to be ready." โ€

These words were said to a few pro-soldiers present, and those pro-soldiers, except for Qin Xuan, looked flattered, "The villain obeys the general's order!" โ€

Qin Xuan's eyes swept the emotion on the faces of those people, and she felt that she had to pretend to be herself, and she immediately followed suit.

Murong Hyun didn't know her temper, and when he saw her showing such a face, he suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

"Qin Xuan, I heard that your knife was curled last time and can't be used, right?" Murong Hyun suddenly asked. The people present immediately stared at Qin Xuan with their eyes.

Qin Xuan's face was a little red and her throat was dry when she was looked at by so many people, she was still a little uncomfortable with this feeling of being spotlighted, "General Hui, yes." โ€

Qin Xuan's original knife and horse lance had already been lost in Zhao Jun's corpse when she was in Yunwu Mountain, and later she was rewarded by Murong Hyun, so she went to the blacksmith shop outside to buy a new one. Of course, it is still not as good as what Murong Hyun gave it, after all, the things used by nobles are more than a few grades better than those of commoners.

"Bring it up." Murong Hyun gave an order, and someone came over with a ring-headed knife. "On the battlefield, if you don't have a knife when killing the enemy, you can't use it, I can't use it for the time being, so I'll give it to you."

As soon as these words came out, the men present showed envy in their eyes, where do they dare to use the military knife, hurry up and treasure it, maybe it can be passed on to future generations in the future!

Qin Xuan took it with both hands, Murong Hyun was good to her, it was not a day or two, it had been like this since the two first met in Great Thorn City. Qin Xuan couldn't think of the doorway clearly, and later understood that maybe Murong Hyun was interesting to him. Before the change, she wouldn't want it, but the identities of the two would not allow her to refuse. Not to mention a good knife, she also wants.

"Thank you, General." Qin Xuan held the black and shiny scabbard of the knife. The scabbard was extremely delicately made, and the outer layer was painted, and the scabbard glowed softly in the light of the tent.

The eyes of the comrades around him were about to burst into flames.

Murong Hyun didn't leave these soldiers in the tent for a long time, and after a group of people came out and waited far away from the general's tent, Qin Xuan was surrounded by envious and jealous men.

"How about showing the knife to the brothers later?" Wu Xiaozhen was almost red in the eyes, he came earlier than Qin Xuan, but he was not as valued by Murong Hyun as Qin Xuan.

"That's right, that's right." As soon as Wu Xiaozhen's words came out, he was immediately approved by the others.

"Then let's all come." Qin Xuan was also a little excited, her palm was hot, and the part where she held the knife was dyed with the temperature of her palm.

Everyone flocked to Qin Xuan to the tent where she lived. Qin Xuan occupied a tent alone, but the place was not big, and several big men squeezed in, and suddenly there was no place to stay. Qin Xuan handed the ring-headed knife in his hand to Wu Xiaozhen.

Wu Xiaozhen wiped his palm on his clothes, and made sure that his hands were clean before taking them with both hands. Suddenly, the eyes of Bidezhen and the others were all staring at him.

A few big men filled the tent, and the little slaves serving Qin Xuan outside wanted to come in, but they couldn't walk in properly, so they could only tiptoe behind Qin Xuan with their backs hunched over and pour a glass of buttermilk for their master.

Qin Xuan asked the little slave to go to the back to rest, the slave was transferred from the army, and almost every pro-soldier had one or two. It's just that recently, men in the prime of life have been used to fight, and Qin Xuan came relatively late, and there is only one Hun boy allocated to her. Qin Xuan is not used to being served, but she knows in her heart that it is not a good thing to be too maverick, even if the people around her have a good relationship with her, she will be isolated for a long time, so Qin Xuan will let the little guy do a little thing.

"Good knife, good knife!" Wu Xiaozhen touched the scabbard and knife ring, and his mouth was bursting out, and a pair of eyes were glowing green. It's as if he doesn't have a knife under him, but a peerless beauty.

"Show me." Bide Zhen saw that Wu Xiaozhen touched the knife two or three times, so he simply snatched it from Wu Xiaozhen's hand and looked at it for himself.

Bede couldn't really look at and touch, one โ–กโ–ก after another, and the cold light poured out of the scabbard the moment he pulled out the blade.

The cold light on the knife made Bede really excited, "Sure enough, what the general gave is nothing ordinary." This knife body is cold, and it is not an ordinary knife. After reading it, Bide Zhen raised his head and said to Qin Xuan, "You kid is blessed!" โ€

Bide Zhen and Qin Xuan have fought side by side together, knowing that Qin Xuan's weapons are changed quickly, and the slashing is fierce, and the natural knife is also fast, even if he can make up for it from the dead, but what is good about the things of the people.

Someone took a knife and cut off a piece of his own hair and put it on the blade, put it on the blade, and blow it gently, and that section of hair fell off. It's very neatly broken.

Now the group of people is even more excited.

Qin Xuan hugged his chest and watched these individuals holding the knife, you see me, and he couldn't wait to take it in his hand and play it a few times. Wu Xiaozhen saw that Qin Xuan's face was not in the slightest hurry, and even watched them play with knives, and he regarded Qin Xuan as a brother more and more in his heart.

Such a good knife has changed ordinary people, and I can't wait to put it away immediately and not let others see it. But Qin Xuan let her comrades watch, and she was not afraid of being damaged at all.

Wu Xiaozhen suddenly felt very comfortable.

It's better to have a comrade with a lot of gas than to someone with a small belly. After all, everyone has to work together, and if there is any hatred on the battlefield, it will really cost people's lives.

Everyone took the knife and looked around, and they were full of praise, and finally handed it to Qin Xuan, "Put it away well, take it leisurely when you use it, don't cut it." โ€

"It's a good knife, it shouldn't break so easily, right?" When Qin Xuan said this, she lacked confidence, she basically came down one by one, and she didn't remember how many knives she was holding at the end, or she still didn't get it herself. Anyway, the knife is curled in the back, and it is full of blood, so I can't see it.

"If you take the good things, you may have to pass them on to your children and grandchildren when the time comes." The two brothers slapped Qin Xuan on the shoulder twice.

"Heirloom?" Qin Xuan blinked, she looked at the knife in her hand. The knife is excellent, but this heirloom......

"It's a pity that such a knife is not passed on to my son and grandson, so I have to cherish it for this." Bide Zhen also felt that Wu Dwarf was right.

Then there must be a son to pass on...... Qin Xuan complained in her heart, even if she has a daughter, she can pass it on. It's a pity that she didn't think that she would be able to go home and have a baby.

Naturally, I don't have this idea, but if Qin Rui has a child in the future, I can give it to the past.

"I see." Qin Xuan nodded.

Seeing Qin Xuan listening to persuasion, Wu Xiaozhen also laughed. When he laughed, the others laughed too, and there was a burst of laughter in the tent.

*

Murong Kui had officially ordered to set off, and after resting for a few days, the army set off. Before leaving, I made a sacrifice in the Dragon City and blessed the gods of heaven and earth. Then the army went out of the city.

In fact, it is better to use locally recruited people to fight, because it can save money. If all the army were brought out of the capital, I am afraid that the money would be spent like flowing water. But if it is a war to feed the war, then it is a different story.

The Xianbei people basically have no concept of money when they fight, as long as they grab the enemy's qiฤ“, and all the necessary materials in the cattle and sheep dome can be snatched from the enemy.

Murong Xianbei has been sinicized for so many years, but this point is still the same as his ancestors.

Qin Xuan rode on the horse and remembered the little dry food he had brought in his bag, and couldn't help but wonder if he could eat enough along the way. It is said that Goguryeo is rich and rich in products, and as long as you fight it, you won't have to worry about running out of food. But...... Is there a kimchi there......

Goguryeo occupies most of the Korean Peninsula, and I don't know what the habits are.

Qin Xuan thought about it, but fortunately, she had been riding a horse for a long time, and she already had her own sense of direction. So no one could tell that she was wandering.

After experiencing the rapid march of Yunwu Mountain, this time it was like a tour of the mountains and rivers for Qin Xuan.

After leaving Dragon City, the speed began to increase.

Before dusk, Murong Hyun ordered the army to set up camp.

The soldiers in charge of cooking skillfully dug pits in the ground and began to bury pots for cooking, and the horses also had to go to drink water and eat beans. After running for so long during the day, people are tired like that, let alone horses?

Qin Xuan carried water to find Xiao Hei, and began to scrub Xiao Hei's body in front of everyone in the stable.

Xiao Hei is very stinky and beautiful, after such a day of tiredness, if he doesn't clean up his body, maybe he will lose his temper the next day.

Xiao Hei saw that she was coming, and rubbed her cheek very affectionately, and then turned his head to eat beans, leaving Qin Xuan to brush it.

Brushing a horse is not a simple job, the force is light and the washing is not clean, the heavy horse will be uncomfortable, and even hurt the horse, so you must be careful.

"I'm looking for you everywhere, so you're here." She was concentrating on washing the horse, and suddenly a voice came from beside her, and Qin Xuan reflexively reached behind her waist to pull out the ring head knife there.

"It's me!" Murong Ming's eyes instantly turned cold when he saw Qin Xuan, and even had a faint killing intent. He was not the little boy who hadn't gone through anything, but he had a few lives in his hands, so he spoke out immediately. If he didn't make a sound, maybe the knife would be โ–กโ–ก.

Qin Xuan raised her head when she heard this, and saw that it was Murong Ming standing not far away, she let go of the hand holding the hilt of the knife and took a step back, "The villain meets General Zhichong." โ€

Murong Ming came out this time, Murong Kui didn't want him to come out bareheaded, and it was not good to seal him too high, he was not very old, and he had not established his prestige in the army, and if he was high, it would only hurt him. Therefore, he was given the title of General Zhichong, and General Zhichong is a relatively high position among the miscellaneous generals.

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ You don't have to see outside. "If you change someone else, Murong Ming must hold his chest high in order to appear that he is a general. Of course, the general is just a military attache name, and it is really not uncommon to say it, but Murong Ming is still a general for the first time, even if it is a miscellaneous general, he is happy.

"I went to the third brother to look for you, but I didn't see you, I went to your tent, only your brother's little slave." Murong Ming walked a few steps closer, and he saw that Qin Xuan personally brushed the horse a little incredible, "Wouldn't it be nice to let the slaves come for these things?" He remembered that the slave under Qin Xuan was younger than him, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do this, "Why don't I give you a few people?" โ€

"General Zhichong, the villain is the person under the main general. To make a substitution...... It is also the coming of the Lord. Qin Xuan couldn't help but interrupt him when she heard Murong Ming say this, the things she used were all allocated by Murong Hyun, if she took the liberty of accepting the things or people sent by Murong Ming, once it was spread, I am afraid that someone would gossip.

Those rumors can also kill.

"......" Murong Ming also figured out the reason, and he was unhappy all of a sudden.

Fortunately, his childishness only existed for a while, and soon he came over, "Did the third brother give you this horse, or did you bring it from home yourself?" โ€

"I brought this horse from home. The only thing I brought from home is that. Qin Xuan reached out and patted Xiao Hei's neck gently.

Xiao Hei snorted.

Murong Ming knew that the horse would understand humanity if he stayed with his master for a long time, and he also walked up and wanted to touch it like Qin Xuan, but the little black boss was not happy.

"Does it only allow you to get close?" Murong Ming asked.

"The villain watched it grow up, so he was extra close to the villain." Qin Xuan said with a smile.

Murong Ming nodded, he was not uncommon for Xiao Hei to be close, anyway, he had a lot of good horses, and he could have as many as he wanted.

"I'm here to have something to say to you." Murong Ming looked around, the slaves around him had retreated, and there were only the two of them here at the moment, "You are not allowed to sue others about this." โ€

"General Zhichong, if you are worried about the villain speaking out, the best way is not to sue the villain." Qin Xuan couldn't help but say something when she heard his childish words.

If you want to get others not to say it, the best thing is not to say it yourself.

"So what? Could it be that you still have to learn from those long-tongued women and have nothing to do with right and wrong, right? Murong Ming raised his eyes to look at her. The men of the Murong family have outstanding faces, and Murong Ming is no exception, he picks the corners of his lips, he is obviously a thirteen-year-old boy, but he is a little bright.

The man is too good-looking, it is inevitable that he is too feminine, but Murong Ming does not have the slightest sense of femininity, and his beauty contains the sunshine of a teenager, which is fascinating but not feminine.

"Villains naturally don't." Qin Xuan would not say that she was a long-tongued woman, let alone that she was not such a person at all.

"That's not it." Murong Ming smiled.

The stables had just been cleaned, and the smell was not big, so Murong Ming didn't feel uncomfortable staying there.

"I have more brothers." When Murong Ming said this, his eyes were clouded, "Do you have a younger brother?" โ€

"I don't have a brother, but I do have a sister." As soon as Qin Xuan heard this, he understood that Murong Ming would be annoyed because he had an extra brother, and he was even a little jealous.

Murong Ming has always been King Yan's favorite son, and even King Yan had the idea of stepping over his eldest son and directly making him his son.

"That's pretty much it." Murong Ming said and laughed, "I have never had a younger brother before, I am the youngest, and Grandpa also likes me the most, now that I have a younger brother, even if Grandpa likes me again, it is inevitable that he will love his younger brother more." And the brothers were full of joy on their faces, as if it were a good thing to have an extra man in the family.

"......" After Qin Xuan heard this, she lowered her head and stretched out her hand to continue to scrub Xiao Hei's body. For younger siblings, people are different, and it is normal for children to be unable to figure it out for a while.

"How do you feel about your sister?" Murong Ming asked suddenly.

"The villain has lost his grandmother since he was a child, and the last brother was also tortured to death by the clansmen." Qin Xuan shook her head when she talked about the past, "Only my sister and I depend on each other, except for my grandmother and cousin, my sister is my only blood-related relative in this world." Qin Xuan knew that in the Murong family, the so-called brothers were all wolves, and they couldn't believe it, and they couldn't even wait to get rid of it. But these sibling fights have nothing to do with her.

"It's nice to have someone at home waiting for me to go back." Qin Xuan said, she thought of her relatives at home, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously showed a smile.

Those relatives, especially her sister, are still waiting for her to go back at home, no matter what she does, she is motivated. At least she's not alone in this world.

Family affection is more nostalgic than the so-called love between men and women.

"......" Murong Ming saw the smile on her face, those eyes were crooked with a smile, and the tenderness on her face seemed to be overflowing, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
