Chapter 209: White-haired wind

The wind blows north, and the yellow sand is full of sky.

At this time, the capital is only late autumn, and the autumn grass is green, but it is only a little cool.

And Xuanfu, which is thousands of miles away, is already a land of ice and snow.

There is a white-haired wind blowing on the desert, and this white-haired wind is the most terrifying.

It blew like snow and not like snow, and in the distance I saw a sheet of ice, flying everywhere, shining golden under the sun, and once the wind rose, it swirled wildly.

This kind of scene makes people who are new to the desert feel amazing and moving beauty.

But for Shen Ergongzi, who has been here for less than two months, this wind is simply the wind blowing from hell, which makes people frightened.

In this desert, whether it is a person or livestock, as long as there is no time to escape from this wind, they will be frozen to death in an instant.

Even when he died, he kept the posture he had when he was alive.

Shen Ergongzi saw a sheep herder with his own eyes, driving a flock of sheep, and encountered this wind on this desert.

After the wind had passed, the shepherd and the sheep were still in place, but they were dead.

The man was still holding a whip in his hand before he died, and he still had a frightened expression on his face.

The flock was still running forward, and some of the sheep didn't even have time to land their front hooves on the grass.

He was nailed to death in this desert by this white-haired wind, covered with white frost.

According to local herders, this is the curse of immortality.

The local herdsmen are absolutely not allowed to eat the meat of any livestock that has been frozen to death by the white hairy wind, for fear that the curse will continue on their bodies.

The soldiers at the border pass also had to believe that even if they saw these frozen cattle and sheep from a distance in this desert, no one would dare to attack them.

But at this moment, the second son of Shen was holding a roast leg of lamb in his hand and feasting on it.

And several generals beside him, guerrilla generals, and generals, all looked at him dumbfounded, digesting this sheep alone.

"My lord, this is a sheep cursed by the white-haired wind, don't eat it!"

A general, looking directly at the golden roast mutton on the fire rack, was really hesitant in his heart, so he had to persuade like this.

"You guys, it's really funny, we originally did a business of licking blood with knives, today we are fortunate to roast mutton on this city, maybe tomorrow we will sprinkle blood on the yellow sand, and we can't eat if we want to!"

The second son of Shen had a big beard, and the cotton armor in front of him was oily and shiny, dirty, and he couldn't see the original color.

The rest of the soldiers in iron armor were stamping their feet on the battlements next to them, and the black iron armor was covered with white frost.

They couldn't help but glance over here, and said loudly and half-jokingly: "Second master, reward our brother with a few pieces of white-haired meat, in the future, maybe we will all die together!" ”

When the general next to the second son heard this, a trace of annoyance appeared on his face, and he scolded: "How can you speak?"

The soldiers immediately stopped, lowered their heads, and said no more.

But the second son of Shen looked arrogant, spit white gas in his mouth, and laughed loudly: "Mr. Liu, they are telling the truth, I love to listen, come, a few brothers come over, around the roasting fire, accompany me to eat this white-haired sheep!" ”

As soon as several soldiers got the order, they hurriedly put down their spears and surrounded them, but they saw that Liu Jiang raised his eyebrows and was at a loss for a moment.

Shen Ergongzi hurriedly waved his hand, and said with a displeased expression: "Those of you who dare not eat get out of the way, don't hold on here, let those who dare to eat come!" ”

Several officers hurriedly got out of the way, and several soldiers gathered at once, and in an instant, the cold air on their bodies forced over.

They were all grateful and said, "Second Master Xie!" ”

As he spoke, he roasted the fire with his hands, and looked at the fat sheep that was roasted golden and oily, his eyes were full of longing, but his expression was a little restrained.

"Don't just look at it, do it yourself!"

The second son of Shen was so happy that he didn't care about talking at all.

"Hey!" Several soldiers hurriedly agreed, and tore the fat sheep with their hands, and one by one they ate with bulging cheeks, and their faces were happy.

At this moment, a lieutenant came up to the city and reported to him: "My lord, the lord has called you!" ”

"Didn't he say anything?"

Shen Ergongzi hurriedly put down the leg of mutton, wiped his hands and asked.

"Lord Hui, Lord Hou didn't say anything, you better go quickly!"

Shen Ergongzi thought that there was some important military situation, so he hurriedly went down the city tower and waited for him to come to the hall.

Seeing that Hou Ye was holding a letter, he looked at him with a smile and said to him: "Second son, I will grant you half a month off, you should go home to see your parents." ”

Several generals and guerrilla generals around him congratulated him one after another: "Second son, you have to bring us something delicious and fun when you go back to the capital this time." ”

But when Shen Ergongzi heard this, he frowned and said: "Beijing, I still don't want to go back, I think I am more needed here, I want to stay, this opportunity to take a vacation, it's better to give it to others." ”

When he said this, others were very surprised, and the Hou Ye obviously had a frosty face, waved his hand to others, and those guerrillas and staff generals hurriedly retreated outside the house.

At this time, only Su Hou Ye and him were left in the room, and Wu Hou was also angry, snapped, slapped the table, and asked sharply: "Why are you here all the time, and you don't go back again and again?" ”

"Back to the Waiting Lord, the movements of the little prince's army are unknown, and it is a critical period......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Hou Ye: "This is not a reason, you must have something!" ”

At this point, he was silent, and the two sides fell into embarrassment, and at the end, Hou Ye sighed.

He said, "Your father told me to persuade you to go back and see your mother, who washes her face with tears every day!" ”

At the mention of his mother, the expression on Shen Ergongzi's face was obviously painful.

Su Dingfang continued: "No matter what, you should go back and see, the matter here is with me, the little prince and they are in civil strife, I'm afraid they have no intention of going south!" ”

Thinking of the sadness on his mother's face when he was leaving, he felt a pain in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I'll go back!" ”

Guanshan Qianli, he himself is in good health, riding a fast horse, with two guards, three people and three horses, on the road with Su Dingfang's hand, along the way of the post station, fast horses to take.

After seven days, we finally arrived in the capital.

After more than two months of absence, I walked under the city gate today, and I felt very cordial.

After entering the city and returning home, Shen's mother went to wait for him at the door from afar, and in the autumn twilight, she saw that her mother had more gray hair on her sideburns during the two months she left.

The first time I saw him, my eyes were full of surprise, and when I touched his face with both hands, I saw that he had a dusty face, and his beard had grown a lot, and he was a little more mature and sophisticated.

"Okay, good, it's good to go outside for some training, the body is much stronger than in the past, and the person is getting older!"

Shen's mother looked relieved, and the manager Wang on the side was much whiter and fatter, and when she saw him, she was also affectionate, and she hurriedly took gifts, luggage and other things from her entourage.

"Mother, this is the old ginseng from Guanwai that my son brought to you, although it is not as good as the ginseng of Liaodong, it is also a rare tonic!"

He said with a sincere face.

"It's good for you to come back, come back and stay a few more days, you don't know, after you leave, how lonely I am, and there is no one to talk to!"

Shen's mother was crying, and her eyes were full of loneliness.

"Go to the study, although your father doesn't talk about you, I know he misses you very much!"

After Shen Ergongzi and his mother entered the house hand in hand, he hurriedly went to see his father, entered the study, and saw his father sitting there to learn calligraphy, so he knelt on the ground and cried: "The child is not filial, so you are worried!" ”

Shen Yixian's hand holding the pen obviously paused, and then he moved the pen as usual, and said indifferently: "Your mother thinks too much about you, I have proposed to the Holy Lord to transfer you to Beijing, and give you a martial arts general, from Sanpin, to the Shenji Battalion, you should not be unwilling!" ”

Shen Canglang's face instantly became complicated, and he didn't know how to answer.

In the end, I heard my father say: "You have military merits, there is no need to go to Xuanfu again, although your eldest brother is at home, but he is busy every day, and the shipyard is about to reopen, he is destined to leave!" ”

"Reopening the shipyard?"

It sounded fresh to him and he looked suspicious.

"Well, during the time you left, a lot of things have happened, the prince is about to take the government, and on the occasion of the change of power, his first major event is to reopen the sea ban, and your eldest brother is the leader of this matter!"

"Father, you, you're not ......"

He really couldn't believe that anyone could change his stubborn father, but he listened to his father continue: "This is still the credit of that son, carefully detailing all aspects of the reopening of the sea ban, otherwise it will be difficult for me to obey the order!" ”

"Solo?"

He couldn't help but wonder, but when he saw his father's face silent, he sighed: "The prince said, this note was written by him, in fact, I have seen this trace, and I can recognize the word Siyu, I knew that she was so talented, and I won't stop you as a father, I can't stand you!" ”

"Father's ......"

Seeing his father's old face, he was infinitely sad, and hurriedly bowed upward: "No, I am willing to do all this, and I will be good with Mingzhu in the future!" ”

"She?"

When he said this, Shen Yixian looked contemptuous, his expression was ruthless, and he laughed: "The granddaughter of Taishi Zuo, the daughter of Princess Changyang, is actually a lowly son, I don't know how many green hats I have brought you!" ”

"This ......"

Shen Canglang couldn't believe that his father would comment on her like this.

I heard him continue: "Old Lady Zuo has not been allowed to return to his hometown several times, but it is the emperor's name of trying to start and finish well, after the Chongyang Festival next month, Old Lady Zuo's excerpt will definitely be correct, after a month or two, you will divorce her, and find Huo Yutai's third daughter for your father, although the girl is young, she has also come to menarche, so marry her!" ”

The second son of Shen felt sad at that moment, he was always a healthy horse in his father's eyes, and the purpose of his existence was just to get acquainted with the ladies of various families and marry them.

Just then, there was a commotion at the door.

"Second grandma, second grandma, this, this can't be helped, you can't bring a man back like this!"

Mr. Wang said eagerly.
