"As a human being, what I am most afraid of is achieving nothing."

After the battle, Tang Yuan asked Nalan Xin to clean up the battlefield and asked him to pay attention to relatively new boots, preferably leather boots. Tang Yuan also specially reminded that he should have exactly one foot of shoes.

In fact, cleaning the battlefield is nothing, sometimes, the generals even clean the battlefield themselves, it is strange to say, many people are addicted to cleaning the battlefield, and always feel that they can turn over the treasure on the battlefield.

But this is simply a kind of contempt for Nalan Xin, who thinks that he is talented, but is doing such a vulgar and unbearable manual work.

Nahetutu once asked Nalan Xin: "Do you want to leave?" If you want, I will risk my life to protect you, and I can rush back to the male Jia barracks. ”

Nalan Xin shook his head with a wry smile and refused, and told Nahetutu to dispel this irrational thought as soon as possible.

Nalan Xin was born in a very ordinary family of male Jia herdsmen, and later lost his parents due to the war and was displaced at a young age.

For him, the male Jia Guo has nothing to be nostalgic for, but he can't rest assured of Wen Jitong and his family. Although the young master of the Wen family is naughty, he does not bully him, and he often writes homework for the young master, and has become the young master's sworn friend.

Now that the young master has grown up, before he left, he asked the young master to hide a pair of Wen family children in the homes of the Han people, and then he ran away with the money and papers.

He lived in the Wen family for more than ten years, and shed tears before leaving.

His specialty is memory and analytical ability, he can break down a thing in detail, and he can speak the truth in all aspects, but the only thing he lacks is some lack of judgment, perhaps because he is used to being called by the young master of the Wen family, he prefers to let others take ideas. And he is only responsible for analyzing and providing ideas.

In fact, when Nalan Xin was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, there was also a good servant girl, and when he thought of the servant girl, he felt a little guilty in his heart.

Now Nalan Xin has seventeen servants around him, all of them are men, and while they are cleaning the battlefield, they are handing over the collected shoes to Nalan Xin.

Among them was a new cowhide boot, which looked like a foot long, Nalan Xin put away the shoes and said lightly: "I have always taken the prime minister as a model, and I think that I can become a character like him in the future." ”

He sighed and stood up, and said, "Let's go, let's send the shoes directly to Captain Hu, so that Captain Tang Du will say that my ears are short." ”

Nahetutu said: "Ashin, don't complain, in fact, I think Captain Tang Du is very good to you." ”

"Okay?" Nalan Xin snorted lightly: "That kid has a lot of ideas and is right, when did he listen to my plan?" But this kid also impresses me, every time I see that he is about to be finished, but he can always save the day. The point is that the people around him are too capable of fighting, so that the enemy is not expected. And he himself, a natural good shooter, is the kind of thief on the battlefield! ”

"Oh, if you say this, you won't be afraid of reaching his ears." Nahetutu said with a smile.

"I'm surrounded by men, who can betray me?" Nalan Xin said indignantly: "We men pay the most attention to brotherhood. ”

"Yes, I love to hear that." Nahetu Tudao.

Because he felt that he had not been taken seriously, Nalan Xin was in a bad mood, and he even considered whether to change his name.

Because the surname Nalan is a typical male surname, many people feel disgusted when they hear the name. Even if he leaves Tang Yuan in the future, he will be bound by his name.

But he thought about it again and again, and finally decided to give up, because now he felt that Tang Yuan was dazzling enough, and sooner or later he would have to be reused by the gate valve. If you can keep up with Tang Yuan's pace, it's actually not bad.

He carried a new pair of shoes in his hand, swayed to the gate of Zhonglang Jiangzhai, and said to the guards: Look for orchids.

Not long after, Hu Lanhua strode out, Nalan Xin stood at the door with her hands behind her back, her eyes unconsciously fell on Hu Lanhua's feet, not to mention, her boots were really old, and there were already traces of stitching on them.

Nalan Xin didn't carry people on his back, but said loudly: "Let's all captain Tang Yuan, ask this secretary Lang to go to the battlefield to find Captain Hu's ruler boots, no, if you find a pair of semi-new, you will immediately run over and give it to Captain Hu!" ”

"Did Tang Yuan really ask you to send it?"

"Of course. Otherwise, with my little secretary, how dare I disturb Captain Hu. ”

"Hmph." Hu Lanhua held back a smile, snatched the boots with her hand, looked at them, liked them more and more, put them behind her back seemingly casually, and said with her hands behind her back: "Go back and tell Tang Yuan, I think these shoes are okay, if you find a better one in the future, remember to send them to me." ”

"Nalan Xin obeys!" Nalan Xin gave an exaggerated and deep salute.

Returning to Tang Yuan's regimental headquarters, Nalan Xin sat down stupidly.

Next to him was Tang Yuan, who was not in a hurry to speak, while Tang Yuan watched a group of people playing chess.

"Why did you come?" Tang Yuan found that Nalan Xin's mood was not high, so he asked casually.

Nalan Xin looked at Tang Yuan and said in a sullen voice: "Find a pair of cowhide boots that are not bad, and send them to Captain Hu." ”

"Oh." Tang Yuan responded lightly, his gaze continuing to fall on the chessboard.

Chen Bao usually doesn't like to play chess, Tang Hu is gambling with others, and every time he plays chess, he doesn't add some color, it is not a chess game for him.

Not to mention, this kid looks simple, but he is a little genius when he plays chess, and he is always very lucky in backgammon.

"You don't want to know Captain Hu's reaction when he gets the shoes?" Nalan Xin glanced at Tang Yuan: "Actually, Captain Hu looks good. ”

Tang Yuan glanced at Nalan Xin: "Are you uncomfortable?" Would you like to find something to do again? ”

"You just assume that I didn't say anything." Nalan Xin lazily collapsed in his chair.

"No, I already think you're idle." Tang Yuan stood up, "Let's go, go out for a walk with me." ”

"What are you going for?" Nalan Xin thought that Tang Yuan was going to have something to do, and looked at him vigilantly.

Tang Yuan said: "Inspect my new equipment. ”

Nalan Xin was puzzled: "What new equipment?" ”

Tang Yuan smiled and said, "Didn't you say last time that if you have the opportunity, you must equip a few catapults?" I've got people to build it, let's see how powerful it is. ”

Nalan Xin suddenly became much more energetic, stood up and said, "Is it designed according to my drawing?" ”

"Well..., it's pretty much the same, but there are fewer iron tools, so I'm worried about affecting the power.。

"It doesn't matter if the power is a little bit worse, the key is to have it, if this thing is used well, it will be as simple as cutting tofu to deal with a city like Jiangling whose walls are not very strong, no longer need to build a ladder and build a siege tower, which is trouble-free and safe."

Nalan Xin is a person who cares a lot about appearance, and he always unconsciously shakes his long hair in front of his forehead.
