Chapter 267: Parting

Qin Xiao walked up to Yuwen Chengchao's side and said softly: "Big Prince! ”

"I envy you." Yuwen Chengchao turned his head and said with emotion: "You can stay, follow the general to kill the Wutuo people, and live in the world, what can be more enjoyable than this way of living?" ”

Qin Xiao said: "The eldest prince also wants to follow General Hei Yu? ”

"It's a pity that I'm a child of a family." Yuwen Chengchao sighed: "After we enter the customs, we will no longer ask for money. This time, the Yuwen family was able to survive the catastrophe, which was already a great blessing, and it was already a great blessing to be able to have a piece of land to cultivate and be self-sufficient, which was already an ancestral virtue for the Yuwen family. ”

Although Chen Zhitai stood by the tent and did not squint, he pulled his ears to hear what the two of them said.

"Qin Xiao, you and my brothers, take care of the fat fish and them more in the future." Yuwen Chengchao groaned slightly, and finally said: "They have followed me for many years, although they are not from the Yuwen family, it is difficult to wash away the brand of the Yuwen family, and others will regard them as the remnants of the Yuwen family." ”

Qin Xiao frowned and said, "Why did the eldest prince say that? Don't they follow the Yuwen family into the customs? ”

"Naturally, they want to follow me all the time, but I can't be too selfish." Yuwen Chengchao smiled faintly: "After the Yuwen family enters the customs, they are just ordinary people, and they will no longer have the heart to chase fame and fortune, they have no power and power, and they will only delay their future if they follow the Yuwen family." Several of them are brave and good at fighting, and they are all warriors who walked out of the White Tiger Battalion, if I hadn't taken them out back then, they would at least be the riding schools of the White Tiger Battalion. After the White Tiger Battalion followed General Hei Yu, they were the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, if they could make military achievements, the imperial court would naturally have a reward, with their ability, I believe they could all get ahead, and they would all be able to glorify their ancestors when the time came. ”

"When will the old marquis enter Beijing?"

"I'll leave early tomorrow morning." Yuwen Chengchao turned around and said, "I accompanied my father to Beijing together, and after settling down, I will return to Xiling, and it will take at least more than a month to go back and forth." ”

Qin Xiao wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

Although Chen Zhitai was reluctant, he did not dare to disobey, and retreated step by step.

"Actually, it doesn't matter, General Hei Yu's people will come in the next two days." Yuwen Chengchao said: "General Hei Yu is in the Metropolitan Mansion, and today Lord Metropolitan Protector also went to see his father in person, telling his father that General Hei Yu will send someone to accept the White Tiger Camp in these two days." ”

Qin Xiao said: "Brother Yu, they promised to stay?" ”

When Chen Zhitai heard this, he couldn't help it, and said happily: "Eldest Prince, you mean that the White Tiger Battalion will follow General Black Feather?" Are we all officers and soldiers? ”

Qin Xiao turned his head suddenly, his eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Chen Zhitai, if you say half a sentence between me and the eldest prince, I will cut your tongue immediately." ”

Chen Zhitai immediately closed his mouth, and Qin Xiao frowned, "What are you still doing here?" Still not down? ”

"What does the eldest prince command, do it

Tube Instructions. ”

"Zhao Yi has not been heard from." Yuwen Chengchao smiled bitterly: "He went out with us, but there was no news, and I don't know if he is dead or alive." If you have the opportunity, you can help find it, and if you can find it, you can also arrange it for him. ”

"If they do not stay, I will break with them." Yuwen Chengchao smiled: "They don't dare not listen to my words." They packed up and sent me out of the city tomorrow, and then they would report to the White Tiger Camp. Brother Qin, they are also your brothers, if there is any difficulty in the future, you can help them more. ”

"Don't worry, eldest son, as long as Brother Yu has something to offer, I will do my best." Qin Xiao said solemnly.

Yuwen Chengchao groaned slightly, and then said: "There is one more thing, I originally wanted to do it myself, but now it seems that I can only entrust it to you." ”

Yuwen Chengchao suddenly smiled and said, "That's it, how can you be like a girl, life and death, maybe we will have the opportunity to drink and eat meat together in the future." Patted Qin Xiao on the shoulder: "Don't say it, take care of yourself." ”

"Eldest son, take care!" Qin Xiao took two steps back, tidied up his clothes and armor, and bowed.

If it weren't for Yuwen Chengchao's arrangement for him to enter the White Tiger Camp, he would not have had the opportunity to become General Black Feather's subordinate, and this alone made Qin Xiao grateful.

Qin Xiao listened to Yuwen Chengchao's tone, which seemed to be the last side, and he was also a little sentimental in his heart.

The migration of the Yuwen family into the customs is naturally not a bad thing for the Tang Dynasty or Xiling, but Qin Xiao has been with Yuwen Chengchao for a long time, knowing that this eldest prince is righteous and very affectionate, and he also takes great care of himself, but now he is farewell, but he doesn't know if there is a chance to see him again.

"As long as he lives, I will do my best to find him." Qin Xiao said solemnly.

If such a person follows the army and follows General Kuroba, he will definitely be able to make great achievements in the future, and he will also be able to show his ambitions in the field.

But precisely because he was a member of the Yuwen family, he had no chance to enlist in the army.

If the Yuwen family wants to be preserved, they can only follow the arrangement of the imperial court and go to the fiefdom to survive in a low-key manner, at least in the generation of the Yuwen Cheng Dynasty, it must not be too dazzling, otherwise it is likely to bring a catastrophe to the Yuwen family.

Yuwen Chengchao didn't say much, turned around and left, raised his arm, waved his hand with his back to Qin Xiao, and went very chicly.

Qin Xiao looked at Yuwen Chengchao's back, but he was quite embarrassed in his heart.

Yuwen Chengchao is of course an outstanding figure among the children of the family, capable of literature and martial arts, heroic temperament, righteous people, and ambitious in his heart.

Before dawn, a carriage, escorted by more than a dozen knights, left the city of Fengganfu and walked quietly, and few people knew about it.

A few miles out of the city, the carriage stopped, and the old Marquis Yuwen lifted the curtain, walked on the wheel, and turned to look at the majestic Fengganfu City.

He knew that if he said goodbye today, he might never see this city again in this life.

The best choice for the Yuwen family is naturally to keep a low profile, and even not let people remember them anymore, so as to ensure that the children and grandchildren of the Yuwen family are safe and sound.

It is precisely because of the desire to protect the Yuwen family that no matter how much ability and ambition Yuwen Chengchao has, he can only be buried from then on.

On the second day of November, it is clearly written on the yellow calendar that funerals should be avoided and travel should be made.

"Gone." The old marquis smiled slightly: "Let them go back, they all serve Datang well, if they can really make a contribution in the future, it can be regarded as our Yuwen family doing a little bit for Datang." ”

The fat fish on horseback, Ning Zhifeng and Dapeng turned over at the same time

Dismounted, knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "Lord Hou, take care!" ”

The Yuwen family has been passed down here for hundreds of years, and the old marquis has spent almost all his life here, where the ancestors of the Yuwen family are buried, and the past of the old marquis's life is also buried.

"Father.....!" Yuwen Chengchao urged the horse closer.

He can understand the mood of the old marquis, and even he is full of nostalgia for Xiling, not to mention the old marquis who has spent his whole life here.

When passing through Turtle City, the group naturally did not enter the city, and the news of the Zhen family's father and son had naturally spread, but they didn't know what the situation was like in Turtle City now.

It's just that the Yuwen family doesn't care about this anymore.

Since the imperial court has calculated that the father and son of the Zhen family will die under Tiandu Peak, then Zhen County must have made arrangements.

The old marquis just smiled, and when he returned to the carriage, Yuwen Chengchao shouted, and took more than a dozen knights to escort the carriage and continued to move forward.

Starting from Xiling Yuwen County, all the way to the east, into Jiayu Pass, into Yongzhou, through Tongguan, and then a few days, you can arrive at Kyoto, the carriage does not stop day and night, it also takes more than 20 days.

The old marquis is very old, and the speed of the carriage should not be too fast, so as not to be bumpy.

The old marquis knew that Yuwen Chengchao was nothing more than worried about his body, so he used the excuse that others wanted to rest, and he couldn't bear to brush Yuwen Chengchao's filial piety, and got down from the carriage, Yuwen Chengchao ordered everyone to get off the horse and rest, helped the old marquis to sit down by the forest, took dry food and water, and said, "Father, eat something first." ”

The old marquis looked at Yuwen Chengchao, patted Yuwen Chengchao on the shoulder, and said warmly: "Do you feel wronged?" ”

"Huh?" Yuwen Chengchao didn't react for a while.

The carriage did not stop, it was already dusk, Yuwen Chengchao heard the violent coughing of the old marquis in the car, and immediately urged the horse to the window of the car, and asked with concern: "Father, how are you doing?" He shouted, "Stop and rest." ”

"I'm fine." The old marquis's cough stopped: "Continue on your way, and rush to Kyoto early." ”

Yuwen Chengchao looked at the sky and said, "Father, I and everyone are tired after continuing to travel, let's rest for a while, eat some dry food, and you can also get out of the car to breathe, which is good for the body." He looked left and right and said with a smile: "There is a forest here, and the breath is very good." ”

"My father was also for the survival of the Yuwen family." Yuwen Chengchao said: "Maybe we are sorry for the court, but my father is worthy of the Yuwen family." ”

The old marquis looked up at the deep twilight sky, and sighed: "I still can't stand you after all, if you are not a descendant of the Yuwen family, maybe .....!" Before the words fell, only a miserable scream was heard, and then a "whoosh" sound was heard, and the sound of "poof" came, and the two guards on the side of Yuwen Chengchao were instantly hit by arrows and killed instantly.

"Father, be careful!" Yuwen Chengchao was horrified, and saw a cold arrow shot from the forest to the back of the old marquis, and for a while he didn't have time to draw the knife, his body flashed, protecting the old marquis, and with a "poof" sound, the cold arrow did not enter Yuwen Chengchao's shoulder.

"You've been thinking since you were a kid to be able to charge on the battlefield." The old marquis smiled and said: "I remember when you were eleven years old, you also said that one day, you will become a general who commands thousands of armies and horses, and you will be invincible as the soldiers point to. ”

Yuwen Chengchao smiled: "Father remembers? ”

"Naturally, I remember." The old marquis sighed lightly: "How have you ever given up such a dream? It's a pity that you were born in the Yuwen family, and you have empty ambitions, but you can only bury them in your heart, Cheng Dynasty, the wrong decision sixteen years ago made me both scared and more regretful. ”

"Choke!"

Yuwen Chengchao endured the pain in his shoulder, pulled out the knife from the sheath, and shouted: "Enemy attack, everyone meet the enemy!" ”
