The third day of October in the fourteenth year of Liyang

The cold wind was howling, and the flags were rolled.

On an official road in Yanlin County, Qin Qi, Yan Kui and a group of generals, fully armed, led more than 1,000 soldiers to stand in Masu, quietly waiting for something in the wind.

About half a burnt incense time, there was a deafening sound of horses' hooves, and a cavalry of hundreds of knights rushed towards them quickly, and there was a flag bearer on the cavalry carrying a large flag with red letters on a black background, and the word "Di" was written on it.

"Yuan Han, follow me, and the rest stay where you are."

Seeing the big banner with the word "Di", a smile flashed on Qin Qi's slightly red face, which was blown by the cold wind, and greeted Yan Kui, and the two jumped out and quickly rode towards the cavalry.

The horses under the crotch of the two were good horses, and their feet were fast, and they came to the cavalry in a few hundred breaths.

Qin Qi saw Di Yi, the old boss in the golden helmet and golden armor in the cavalry, and hurriedly pulled Yan Kui to turn over and dismount, and gave a military salute: "The last general Qin Qi (Yan Kui) has seen Di Shuai. ”

Di Yi, who has always been cold and taciturn, saw Qin Qi and the others, and squeezed out a smile on his face for the first time: "Gao Yan (Qin Qi's character), you did a good job, and you will make persistent efforts in the future." ”

Qin Qi didn't expect that Di Yi, who used to cherish words like gold, would actually praise himself, this was the first time that Di Yi praised him in the ten years he had been under the other party's command, Rao is Qin Qi was calm, and he couldn't help but hug his fists excitedly.

"The last general will live up to Di Shuai's entrustment."

…………

Yan Kui next to him didn't expect Di Yi to just say a word, Qin Qi reacted so loudly, a little stunned, and Di Yi also looked at him.

To tell the truth, after the defeat of the Yanlin Jin army in the initial valley, they were brave and brave, won several battles, and pressed the Zhou army of Tuxian County to the ground in the case of inferior troops, and even caused the commander of the Zhou army to give up attacking Yanlin.

It is precisely because of this that the name Yan Kui has come into the eyes of Peng Kuohai and Di Yi, the two marshals of the Jin army.

Especially Di Yi, Yan Kui served under the account of Qin Qi, the general under his command, even if Yan Kui was born in the Tong'an Army, not counting his descendants, but he could barely be under his command, Yan Kui fought effectively, and his "direct boss" also increased his face.

Because of this, Di Yi had a good impression of Yan Kui, a fierce general who could fight well, and when they met today, he took the initiative to ask.

"You are the Yan Kui Yan Yuanhan who defeated the Western Zhou Tiger General Suo Ya."

Facing Di Yi, a military giant, Yan Kui naturally did not dare to slack off: "Back to Di Shuai, the last general is Yan Kui." ”

Di Yi nodded, looked at Yan Kui carefully, and saw that he was majestic, his eyes were calm, and he exuded a domineering and confident body, and he was greatly satisfied in his heart, and directly opened his mouth to dig up the corner.

"Will you come to my tent and listen to the command."

As soon as these words came out, before Yan Kui could speak, Qin Qi stopped doing it first, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Di Shuai, I haven't seen you for months, why did you cut off your arms as soon as you met." ”

Qin Qi has followed Di Yi for ten years and belongs to the confidant general, so he dared to interject and complained, and if he was someone else, he didn't dare to squeak in front of Di Yi without confidence.

Di Yi didn't have a chance with Qin Qi, waved his hand at him, and looked at Yan Kui, Yan Kui looked up at Di Yi who was expressionless, and then glanced at Qin Qi, who kept giving him a look, and was silent for a moment.

"General Qin takes great care of the last general."

Yan Kui's words were over, but the three people present understood what he meant, Qin Qi nodded with Yan Kui with some excitement, and Di Yi didn't show any disappointment, he bowed slightly, and stopped dwelling on this issue.

…………

After a while, Qin Qi and Yan Kui led Di Yi to the camp of the Yanlin Jin army, and on the way back to the camp, Qin Qi took time out to find Yan Kui.

"Yuan Han, after getting along for a few months, you also know my Qin Qi's temperament, I will definitely not do anything to cut off people's futures, not to mention you, the reason why I asked you not to accept Di Shuai's invitation is actually for your sake."

Speaking of this, Qin Qi looked left and right, rode to Yan Kui's side, and said in a low voice.

"I'm from here, I know better than anyone what the situation is around Di Shuai, his old man has a high position, countless noble officials and eunuchs and the military Houjin are arranged to be gilded by his side, plus Di Shuai's henchmen, the situation is complicated, the situation is treacherous, no less than the court fight.

You are in the limelight now, I have heard that Di Shuai and Peng Shuai have shown their appreciation to you several times, if you go to Di Shuai's account with this name, it is estimated that within two days, you will have to encounter countless open swords and hidden arrows.

Yuan Han, you are different from them, you have real skills, if they want to climb up, they have to spend several years of hard work to boil the qualifications by Di Yi's side, and if you want to be promoted through meritorious service, you can go directly to the battlefield and fight for it yourself.

You use military merits to get promoted, wherever you go, no one dares to say that you are half dissatisfied, which is like them, no matter how high the official is promoted, if you don't have the merits of taking a shot, you will only be scolded by others and look down on him. ”

Saying that, Qin Qi smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Yan Kui's shoulder, and his previously calm face rarely showed a little rebelliousness: "Brother, wherever our generals go, they all rely on merit and scars to speak, with this, we have a hard back." ”

…………

Looking at Qin Qi, who was serious, Yan Kui raised his head and smiled: "The general treats me well, I listen to you." ”

Hearing Yan Kui's words, Qin Qi was overjoyed: "That's right, Yuan Han, don't worry, I, Qin Qi, will definitely not treat you badly."

This time the Zhou army retreated, you have a lot of credit, even if you can't be promoted to the next level, it is estimated that you can get a small title, old brother Nu work hard, see if you can fight for a life for your younger siblings or something.

When Yan Kui heard this, his heart was warm, the paper couldn't hold the fire, Qingyuan sent people to the camp every day to meet Yan Kui, Qin Qi, as the main general, naturally knew it, although he didn't ask because he trusted Yan Kui, but Yan Kui himself couldn't help but explain.

So, Qin Qi learned about Huang Wei'er's condition from Yan Kui's mouth, Lao Qin is also a person who knows hot and cold, so he silently kept this matter in mind, and this time he took the initiative to help Yan Kui ask for Huang Wei'er's life, also to comfort Yan Kui and his wife's mood.

"Thank you, General."

Yan Kui thanked Qin Qi with his hand, and Qin Qi waved his hand: "You and I don't have to be so polite, besides, it's hard to say whether this matter will be successful or not, I can only do my best." ”

Yan Kui shook his head and sighed with some emotion: "Yan Kui is not grateful for the general's efforts, but for the heart of the general Xie." ”

Qin Qi sighed when he heard this, and persuaded: "Don't worry about it, my brother and sister can marry you, it looks like a blessed life, and the mother and son will be safe in the future." ”

Yan Kui nodded, pulled the reins and hesitated for a moment, and said to Qin Qi: "If possible, the general will help me deliver a message to the top, I can do without the title, and use my merits to exchange my wife for a five-grade edict, I want to use this matter to suppress the evil spirit, and give her and the child Chong Chongxi." ”

After many years of rebirth, although Yan Kui still doesn't believe in these Shinto things, but when it comes to his wife and children, he can only give it a try, even if it is useless, he can calm everyone's minds.

Qin Qi looked at Yan Kui with a serious face, opened his mouth to persuade him, but after a pause, he didn't speak, but just nodded heavily.

"I'll bring that for you."

"Thank you." Yan Kui arched his hand gratefully.

For the rest of the time, Qin Yan and the others didn't continue to talk until they entered the camp with Di Yi, and the two hurriedly waited for Di Dashuai.
