Chapter 66: Enlistment

"You said this, but I Xi Chao disagreed. When we went to the Northland this time, we originally made an appointment to deal with Ran Wei. As we all know, there are many monks in the land of Ran Wei, and there are even fewer of them who are suspended in the army. Although there is Lord Xue's immortal method in our army, after all, it is difficult to take care of it when fighting alone, and once something happens, it is difficult to continue. Once there is Counselor Xie, firstly, it will give Master Xue a chance to breathe, and secondly, ......"

Speaking of this, Xi Chao smiled slightly: "Even people like you and me can't help but feel that Counselor Xie is a little ...... at first If it is unreliable, the enemy must think so. There is a saying in the art of war, and the soldiers are treacherous, and the truth is real, and the truth is false. ”

Everyone was confused by Xi Chao's words, and only felt that there seemed to be some truth, and some strong words, but they couldn't refute it for a while, so they had to be silent.

Seeing this, Xi Chao restrained his smile and whispered: "How many years have you and I followed General Huan, and what kind of character the general has, don't we still know?" Where is the general who is greedy for women, and his ambitions, don't you know yet. Would a person like a general still stop because of a small pebble in front of him? If you suspect Counselor Xie now, you are doubting General Huan! ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they didn't dare to say anything.

Xi Chao's face was a little pale, but he still had a tense face, and said with a bow: "We shouldn't have talked about the general's affairs." If the morale of the army is unstable because of this little thing, you generals. Let's consider choosing another master! Xi Chao still has some things to take care of, farewell! ”

With that, Xi Chao turned around and went.

Everyone looked at each other. I was a little dazed by this meal of sugar-fried chestnuts for a while, and I gave some sweet dates and another stick, which was really difficult to deal with.

Just think about it deeply, Xi Chao's words do have some truth.

Putting aside the level of Counselor Xie, those of them who were born and died with General Huan, would they still doubt the general's character and ability? It really shouldn't!

As soon as everyone thought of this, they were ashamed of themselves. They told each other something about the march, and then they dispersed.

On the other side, Xi Chao was commanding something on the side of the ship. At this time, Yu Guang saw the situation here, and he was somewhat relieved.

As for the two parties, these two are people who don't care about the character of others, and they can't think of these messy things at this time.

When Huan Wen carried Xie Xiaoman into the room and sat on the couch. The ship has started. The sound of the tide lapping against the hull of the ship and into the cabin, breathing in and out, makes people very calm.

The light had already lit up, and at this time it shone obliquely through the window of the cabin, and it was golden.

Xie Xiaoman turned his head to look at the scene outside, a fleet of ships was huge, and he couldn't see how many there were for a while.

This time. Sail one after another, in the magnificent waves. Walking against the place where the sun rises, or going hand in hand, or hundreds of boats competing for the current, is really extraordinary.

Xie Xiaoman looked at these pictures and was almost stupid.

"After we get to Chibi, we will go inland and go straight to Ranwei, and when we come back, it will be good to have half of the people left." Huan Wen also looked at the scene outside, and his voice was slightly deep, "This is all my lineage, created by one hand, it's just ...... There is no way, the imperial court is reluctant to go on the Northern Expedition, and it is a corner of peace. If you want to fight, you can only fight out of your own pocket, as for the result, hehe, who knows. ”

Xie Xiaoman looked at Huan Wen, and somehow, from the dark eyes reflected in the morning sun, he saw some tragic meaning that he had never seen before, and he felt a little sad for a while.

Subconsciously stretched out his hand and patted the back of Huan Wen's hand.

Huan Wen raised his eyebrows, the depth and banter of his eyes were revealed again, he approached Xie Xiaoman, and asked in a very oppressive posture: "What, do you want to do something again?" ”

Xie Xiaoman rolled his eyes and said lazily: "Originally, I wanted to teach you to sing the song 'Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water', but now it's okay." ”

"Oh?" Huan Wen recalled, "I remember that there seems to be this one in the poem you wrote that night, 'Success or failure turns empty', but it is also majestic, but it is too tragic." Why, did you compose a song? Sing it to General Ben. ”

This sentence was in the tone of an order, Xie Xiaoman didn't bother to care, waved his hand like a fly, yawned and said, "I haven't slept enough, I'm going to sleep, I'll talk about it when I'm in a better mood." ”

Huan Wen smiled in a low voice: "Do you want General Ben to sleep with you?" ”

"No, if the general of Zhengxi is paired with one night, won't I have to dig out all my family money to be able to pay the price? You don't have to, step down. Xie Xiaoman said lazily.

Huan Wen didn't understand for a while, and after being stunned, he realized that Xie Xiaoman actually compared himself to the girl from Lanyue Tower, which was really angry and funny.

I just wanted to pick Xie Xiaoman up and teach him a lesson, but I found that this girl had just closed her eyes, and she had already made a very soft snoring sound, and she was actually asleep.

It seems that the body is really too tired to fall asleep so quickly.

Huan Wen sighed slightly in his heart, no longer bothered her, and left Xie Xiaoman's room lightly, and walked to his own room next door.

"General, a letter from over there." Xi Chao always appeared at such an opportune time, respectfully handing over the letter, with a look of wanting to say something on his face.

Huan Wen took the letter and walked to his room, reading it casually, but it was just some simple greetings, and there was nothing important.

had already seen Xi Chao's expression, and Huan Wen glanced at him again at this time.

Xi Chao knew that General Huan was impatient, and hurriedly said, "Lord Xue will be here tonight, let me tell the general in advance." ”

"Okay." Huan Wen bowed his head and casually unfolded Ran Wei's map to check.

Xi Chao still didn't leave, and he didn't speak.

Huan Wen rolled his eyes, casually threw a wooden villain in a military drill formation, and scolded: "I haven't seen you for a few days, why is your temperament more and more like a resentful woman!" If there's a fart, let it go! ”

Xi Chao hurriedly dodged away and said embarrassedly: "General, since Lord Xue is here, thank you...... Counselor Xie, let her go back. is so strong, if An Shigong knows, it will not be good. Besides, I don't know if Lord Xue will have any ideas. ”

"Any thoughts? Since they are all working for General Ben, what do he dare to think? Huan Wen smiled coldly, "As for Xie Xiaoman, if they are such high-ranking people, if they are not willing to stay, can I still force them to stay?" Although she saved her brother and sister, you don't have to be so flattering, right? ”

Xi Chao made a red face: "If you don't repay your kindness, who is Xi Chao?" Besides, to put it mildly, you ...... I deliberately ran to see the excitement last night, how did this matter evolve into you holding Immortal Master Xie and crawling out of the lotus pond wet? General, you haven't given me an explanation yet! ”

Now that there is no one around, the relationship between Xi Chao and Huan Wen is already extraordinary, and now there is no hindrance, all the things that Xi Chao thinks in his mind are revealed.

At this moment, it was not embarrassing or embarrassing for Huan Wen.

Xi Chao looked complaining: "I said it at that time, Immortal Master Xie is exorcising ghosts for his insiders, and you can't approach people at will near the wing." How do you say that you are also a man, taking advantage of people's inattention, running to the backyard wing, what is the matter! If I didn't know that you were an upright person, I would have ......" Xi Chao rolled his eyes, "I have to surrender to the enemy." ”

Huan Wen coughed embarrassedly twice: "I haven't been in your house for a long time, so I don't know the way!" Besides, I just saw Xie Xiaoman, who was disheveled, and I didn't see where my brother and sister were! Didn't see it at all! I promise! ”

"Yes......" Xi Chao looked at Huan Wen faintly, "Then dare to ask the general, when did you talk about the incense ash under the orders of Immortal Master Xie......

"Ahem!" Huan Wen felt that his throat was a little smoking, and said nonsense, "How can I know about such trivial things!" Xi Chao! I asked you to prepare Ran Wei's new map a few days ago, are you ready? ”

Xi Chao sighed, and couldn't help but slander, this general Huan is usually calm and indifferent, but in some things, he is like a child who can't grow up, which is really a headache.

As for Xie Xiaoman's side...... That's it, General Huan is right, if she doesn't want to stay, who can stop her?

And now it looks like her body is really worried, rather than letting her go back to rest by herself, it is better to have a care by her side.

Anyway, she is also my wife's life-saving benefactor, and I, Xi Chao, will not treat her badly!

Outside the cabin, the waves washed the sand.

Outside the Yangtze River, where the big waves washed the sand, in the Nanluo Alley in Jiankang City, Xia Hua, who had been waiting all night, looked at the sky and yawned, thinking that Xie Xiaoman's unruly temperament was far from the Lord.

Xiaobai shrunk into a ball and slept next to Xia Hua, looking very fond of Xia Hua, without any xenophobic thoughts.

Xu Zhefeng thought about the beauty holding an oil-paper umbrella on the roof, and thought about it for a night, and when he woke up in the morning, both eye circles were black.

Xianglan was worried about Xie Xiaoman, who didn't return overnight, and she didn't know what happened and whether it would be related to Guo Pu. So when I got up in the morning, my face looked a little dull.

Fortunately, someone knocked on the door early in the morning to deliver a letter, and the letter had the mark of Xi Fu, and the wording was very polite.

On the order of General Zhengxi, Xie Xianshi was ordered to be the counselor of the army and accompany the Northern Expedition on the same day. Because the governor is late, it is difficult to tell him, and he still hopes for the kings and Haihan. On this trip to the north, Xi Chao committed his own efforts, and he must be thorough, and he hopes that all the gentlemen will be at ease, so don't blame him.

"What does that mean?"

This letter is crepe, Xu Zhefeng can't understand it.

"It means that Xie Xiaoman was snatched away by a general who conquered the West, and he ran to be a counselor, and he wanted to go to the Northern Expedition with him."

Summer flowers flutter down from the rooftop, carrying the scent of summer flowers. (To be continued......)
