Tao Zhulu took the reins from the soldiers of the Eastern Army who accompanied Qi Zhun to stabilize the horses, and Tao Zhuhu dragged Lan Ziyi on the horse, and after putting the stirrups on Lan Ziyi's feet, Tao Zhuhu asked:

"Young Master, is it okay?"

Lan Ziyi nodded at Tao Zhuhu to indicate that he was fine, and then Tao Zhuhu and Tao Zhulu went to get on the horse.

Qi Zhun saw Lan Ziyi on the horse and turned around, walked along the street, and at the same time greeted Lan Ziyi:

"Wei Hou, we have to go quickly, this place is more than twenty miles away from the city gate, and the holy decree makes me have to go out of Beijing today."

Lan Ziyi followed Qi Zhun to turn around and ride the horse, and he said:

"In such a hurry, it has to hurry."

The people in the capital have been drinking and feasting since the morning, and the shops have been closed one after another until sunset, but the noise in the shops and the shouts of drinking and gambling are spread in the streets, and Lan Ziyi, who is walking on the main road, can also feel the excitement of the people from the heart.

But the door of the square has been closed, only Qi Zhun and Lan Ziyi and their line on the main road, the lights on both sides of the avenue are brilliant, but the road can only borrow light to move forward, only a single shadow. The loneliness in this is Qi Zhun's experience the most clearly, Lan Ziyi glanced at it several times, and what he saw was Qi Zhun's sadness and helplessness.

Although Qi Zhun asked Lan Ziyi to accompany him, he kept silent after the road walked away. Lan Ziyi didn't want to be silent forever, and after walking for a long time, he spoke:

"Taishi has been training for more than ten years, and once the town army becomes the Beijing army, it must be very reluctant, right?"

Qi Zhun smiled bitterly when he heard this:

"They are all soldiers of the imperial court, and I have nothing to say what the imperial court is willing to arrange for me."

But after finishing speaking, Qi Zhun sensed that something was wrong, because Lan Ziyi asked what he was reluctant to do, and he replied whether the imperial court had the right to transfer troops. As soon as he asked and answered, the bull's head was not right, and the surprise of the horse's mouth revealed all Qi Zhun's resentment.

Lan Ziyi naturally heard Qi Zhun's voice, so he didn't ask, and Qi Zhun didn't say more. The two fell silent again.

At this moment, Lan Ziyi looked back at the others behind him, the Tao brothers and Qi Zhun's personal soldiers were far behind, which was not difficult to understand, but Qi Rongxun actually stayed behind with the Tao brothers instead of following Qi Zhun, which was a little strange.

Qi Zhun saw Lan Ziyi turn around and asked:

"What are Wei Hou looking at?"

Lan Ziyi said:

"Why didn't Qi Hou follow?"

Qi Zhun thought for a moment, and then said:

"Because I just want to talk to Wei Hou alone, it doesn't matter if Xun'er doesn't follow up or not."

Lan Ziyi thought to himself when he heard this, if it really doesn't matter, with his father-son affection, he should also keep up, how can he be left behind? Qi Zhun must have something inconvenient to say in front of his son in this arrangement.

While thinking about it in his head, he asked casually:

"Does Qi Hou want to go back to the town with the Taishi?"

Qi Zhundao:

"Xun'er, like you, is from King Gongweide in Beijing, how can you go with me."

Lan Ziyi nodded when he heard this, and it should be the same.

Then Qi Zhun said:

"I heard that the first time Xun'er and Weihou met, it was a little unpleasant."

Lan Ziyi raised the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and said with a smile:

"That's true, but it's in the past, and there's no point in pursuing it."

Hearing this, Qi Zhun turned his head and glanced at Lan Ziyi, and then he twisted his head back and asked a little cluelessly:

"What does Wei Hou think of Xun'er?"

Lan Ziyi didn't understand what Qi Zhun meant by asking for a while, but he knew that this kind of question would not hurt anything, and there was no pitfall, and Qi Zhun was quite an elder, and it seemed that he would not use the content of private chats to spread rumors.

So Lan Ziyi closed his eyes and recalled the scene of fighting side by side with Qi Rongxun in the past two months, and then said:

"Qi Hou is a thick and honest person, the arrangement of troops is quite orderly, he dares to be the first soldier, and he dares to commit Yashi in person, he is indeed a great general, and the Taishi can be described as a tiger father without a dog."

Qi Rongxun smiled when he heard this, and said:

"Xun'er kicked Wei Hou's eldest brother to the ground in front of so many people, Wei Hou can still evaluate him like this, is Wei Hou broad-minded, or is the city deep?"

Lan Ziyi said:

"As I said, the past is over. In the past two months, I have shared weal and woe with Qi Hou, and I have learned about Qi Hou's character, and Qi Hou's actions when I entered Beijing were by no means sincere, and should have been instructed by someone to so-called. “

Qi Zhun would not chat with Lan Ziyi for no reason, why did he want Lan Ziyi to know, but Lan Ziyi knew that he was holding back his dissatisfaction now. In this case, it is not impossible to boldly test one or two.

Sure enough, Qi Zhun lowered his head slightly when he heard this, glanced at Lan Ziyi and asked:

"Then who does Weihou think Xun'er was instructed by?"

Lan Ziyi smiled and asked Qi Zhun in an inquiring tone:

"Zhang Mingyue?"

Qi Zhun retracted his eyes when he heard this, and sat up straight on his horse. But I don't know if he was tired or he wasn't in the mood, his posture on the horse was indeed rickety.

Qi Zhun sighed and said:

"If you are an eagle dog, you will end up like this, last night I wondered, there is a king of virtue, there is a prison army, why suddenly let me go to the camp, obviously I will be summoned into the capital as soon as I come."

Lan Ziyi heard that Qi was in danger:

"Taishi, don't say that. If the Taishi is an eagle dog, then what is the difference between my Lan family? “

Qi Zhun shook his head and said:

"I'm different from your father. I rely on the lords of the court, and your father relies on the father-in-law of the imperial horse supervisor. I thought I had an old relationship with Zhang Mingyue, and he was more funded by me when he was admitted to the capital. As a result, if you say sell me, you will sell me, and you don't blink your eyes. “

Then Qi Zhun turned around and looked at Lan Ziyi and said:

"Your father is different, your Lan family is different, your Lan family is next to Father-in-law Yu. That Yu father-in-law is a little ruthless, but he is still quite righteous towards his own people. “

Lan Ziyi comforted Qi Zhun and said:

"It's all court eagle dogs, nothing different, I'm afraid the master is thinking too much."

Qi Zhun laughed when he heard this:

"I thought the same thing before today, but I will never think that way after today. I can see that people who read books just look down on us stinky hills, and people are born to be superior. The father-in-law of the inner court will not be like this, they don't need to look down on us as soldiers. This is the only difference between me and your father. “

Then Qi Zhun sighed and said almost to himself:

"Obviously, more than ten years ago, he Lan Qianzhen almost couldn't even make up for the title, and it was clear that he Lan Qianjin was just a fighting general who could only charge, but now he is defending one side for the acting duke, but I can only rely on the overstretched strength of 20,000 people under my hands to defend the Wanli Haijiang.

After that, Qi Zhun replied by himself:

"That's fate. This is the so-called 30 years of Hedong and 30 years of Hexi. “

Qi Zhun's complaining revealed a lot of news to Lan Ziyi, and the legendary competition for favor between the east and north towns seems to be true. The so-called Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second, Lan Qianzhen and Qi Zhun are both the two great generals of Taizheng, and it is normal to look at each other wrongly.

Lan Ziyi took Qi Zhun and said with a smile after calming down his emotions a little:

"What the Taishi just said is not to punish the acupuncture of the lords in the court, isn't the Taishi afraid that I will pass on this to the lords?"

Qi Zhun smiled disdainfully when he heard this:

"I'm already a master, and sooner or later I'll have to go back to the capital to retire, and it's the end of this job, there's nothing to count on. What else can I do if you say it or not? Even if you don't say it, there will be others who say that in my current situation, anyone who says that I have a grudge will be believed. ”

Then Qi Zhun approached Lan Ziyi, lowered his voice and said:

"Since Wei Hou knows that the original matter was instructed by Zhang Mingyue, can Wei Hou stop thinking about this matter."

Lan Ziyi said:

"I've already said that things ...... past"

Qi Zhun interrupted Lan Ziyidao:

"I asked Wei Hou if he could stop worrying."

As he spoke, Qi Zhun stared directly at Lan Ziyi, and Lan Ziyi also looked back at Qi Zhun without the slightest concession. This went on for a while, and finally Lan Ziyi replied sincerely:

"Today, the first sentence of the Taishi asked my father how he was, and let the military merit to me during the banquet, I think the Taishi is not a villain who competes for favor and profit, and what the Taishi is saying now is not a move of rights and interests after seeing the bad situation.

I ask the master to rest assured, Brother Qi is already a robe, let's remember that matter to Zhang Mingyue. “

Qi Zhun nodded when he heard this, he sat back and sighed:

"Xun'er is a general, but my Taisho has no enemies, and he is useless. On the contrary, it is Wei Hou you, a scholar, who first went to the battlefield, led the troops to fight but was not on par with Xun'er, and at the same time the resourcefulness and strategy and those old foxes in the temple had to fight, you will definitely have a great achievement in the future. My son is not as good as you, and I am not as blessed as Lan Qianzhen's tartar.

Now that Wei Hou has been relieved, my son will be safe in the future. “

Lan Ziyi said:

"It's really tormenting for me when the master says this."

Qi Zhundao:

"Actually, I didn't know what Xun'er said at the beginning, although I had a close relationship with Zhang Shoufu, I didn't plan to be a dog like that for him.

I have already told him on Xun'er's side that I will not embarrass Wei Hou again in the future. “

Lan Ziyi heard this:

"Thank you, Master."

Qi Zhun waved his hand and said:

"That's all I have to say, the city gate is right in front of me, I have a holy decree to go out, Wei Hou better go back early."

Lan Ziyi also wanted to say goodbye when he heard this, but suddenly he remembered something, so he asked:

"After I entered Beijing, I heard the name Lan Qianjun mentioned many times, is this person old to my family? Why did the Master mention him today? ”

Qi Zhun was already about to leave, but when he heard the words, he looked at Lan Ziyi in surprise and asked:

"You don't even know who Lan Qianjun is?"

Lan Ziyi replied:

"I don't know, I haven't heard of that name."

Qi Zhun thought about it when he heard this, and finally said:

"Well, it's your family's business, I shouldn't say more. It's right that your father doesn't tell you, it's a difficult thing to do. Wei Hou, don't ask any more questions.

Leave! Say hello to my grandfather on my behalf! “

Saying that, Qi Zhun didn't jerk the horse stocks, and walked away, leaving Lan Ziyi to wonder behind."

"My family affairs?" Lan Ziyi muttered.
