After Bi Qing sent people to the door, he turned around and said goodbye, Huang Shilang put on a new suit and stepped into the front hall, and saw Su Bai and Qin Qiong sitting at a square table, one sitting on one side, and two jars of wine, three pairs of chopsticks, and two torn roast chickens on the table.

Huang Shilang hadn't eaten meat for a few days, and when he smelled the aroma of wine, he knew at that time that this was a burning knife that had become popular in Chang'an in recent years, but unfortunately he was shy in his pocket and had never drunk it. When Qin Qiong saw Huang Shilang coming in, he hurriedly greeted and asked Huang Shilang to sit in the middle, this time he was Su Bai on his left and Qin Qiong on his right.

Huang Shilang didn't say anything polite to the two, poured himself a big bowl of burning knives, and was about to suffocate it all when he raised his head, but as soon as the wine reached his mouth, he tasted that something was wrong, but he felt that it was a bit embarrassing to put it down, so he simply closed his eyes and drank all the wine.

Huang Shilang finally knew why this wine was called a burning knife, from his throat to his stomach, he felt as if there was a burning red knife all the way through, the boss with two eyes was also staring, his neck was red and his muscles were bulging, he put the empty wine bowl on the table, and after holding it for three or four seconds, he said, "Good wine!" ”

Su Bai smiled and poured Huang Shilang again and said: "Uncle Huang has a good amount of wine", Qin Qiong smiled: "This wine can't be drunk so urgently, otherwise it will be easy to get on the head, come, eat a chicken leg to relieve hangover." Wang Xiaozi likes to eat chicken, and his cooks are all masters of making chicken! ”

Huang Shilang grabbed a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth, the chicken was secretly made by the cook, and even Su Bai was full of praise, not to mention Huang Shilang.

Eating meat and drinking wine, Huang Shilang was actually a little distracted for a while, when was the last time he was like this? Ten years ago? Or twenty years ago? Huang Shilang couldn't remember a little, but he knew that it was far away from him!

The three of them were eating and drinking, talking and laughing, Qin Qiong saw that the atmosphere was almost the same, and said, "Shiro, how is it?" Wang Xiaozi said before, I want to ask you for help, do you have any ideas? Huang Shilang hesitated, but still shook his head and said: "I am no longer the original self, and I don't have that heart, but I'm sorry for Lord Wang."

Qin Qiong frowned and said, "Shiro, you are not outsiders, I know what skills you have." This kid has offended people in the court now, and you are not an outsider, I tell you, at the latest by the end of this year, His Majesty will use troops against the Turks, and this kid has been involved in this war! ”

Qin Qiong said with a serious face: "Shiro, only you can protect him!" ”

Huang Shilang laughed at himself: "I can't protect anyone, I don't have that ability, if I had that ability, I wouldn't have died so many people", the three of them were silent, although Huang Shilang didn't say it explicitly, but they all knew what he said.

"If you change four steps for one ride, that's still called incompetence?" Qin Qiong said angrily.

Huang Shilang took a sip of wine, and said with a self-deprecating smile on his face: "They are all villagers, under my order, they don't take their lives seriously at all, fighting like this, exchanging four for one, what is there to be proud of?" ”

Qin Qiong stopped talking, he had never been a person who was good at words, Su Bai answered: "Even if you are holding a bladed knife in your hands, wearing tattered leather armor that can be torn if you poke it?" Huang Shilang's body was shocked, and his voice was dry: "The skills are not as good as people, how can there be those excuses"

Su Bai also poured a big sip of wine, and then said: "One will be a success!" Hearing this, Huang Shilang's eyes instantly turned blood-red! Stared at Su Bai and said, "Are you mocking me?" Huang Shilang was furious, and the momentum of returning from the battlefield was naturally released. If this was changed, ordinary people would have been unable to stand it a long time ago, but it was a pity that the other two people at this table, one of them was also an iron-blooded commander, and the other person had eaten animal coercion pills, and he didn't see this momentum in his eyes.

Su Bai stared at Huang Shilang's eyes and said, "I'm just talking about a fact!" When you were on the battlefield, you led a group of infantry with tattered equipment, four steps for one horse, and the world said you were arrogant! But I understand that you just lose in the equipment! But you do lose! Those fellow villagers died on the battlefield for your decision! You fell out with your best brother. ”

Huang Shilang slammed his fist on the table, and the wine bowl and wine jar on the table were shaken, and Huang Shilang said angrily: "Don't say it! ”

Su Bai didn't listen at all, and didn't care about him slapping the table, and continued in his mouth: "When you sent the ashes of your fellow villagers back to their hometown, Uncle Cheng asked you, do you regret it?" Which sentence of yours will succeed in ten thousand bones! It's just your words of comfort! It's a pity that Uncle Cheng didn't hear it at that time."

Huang Shilang's tears broke the embankment instantly, and he got up and was about to walk out of the door, but as soon as he stood up, he was pressed on the stool by Qin Qiong. Su Bai continued: "You exchanged all the rewards for gold and silver, and made up for the loss of their loved ones!" You didn't ask for an official position, because when you become an official, you will feel that those are all your brothers who gave you their lives in exchange! Why are you hiding yourself so deeply! Isn't it good to say it! ”

Huang Shilang burst into tears, and roared hoarsely: "You hairy boy! You don't understand anything at all! Do you think you know me well! You're wrong! I'm just a megalomaniacal bastard! I killed more than 3,000 of my countrymen! What do you know? What do you know! Do you know who died in battle? Puppies, two joys, pillars! They are all brothers who grew up with me and Biting Gold! ”

"Do you think they'll want to see you now?" Su Bai roared angrily, the voice was so loud that even Qin Qiong was a little surprised, and Huang Shilang was also shocked by this sudden roar, and looked at Su Bai in a daze.

Su Bai stared at him and said, "When they went to the battlefield with you, they knew that they were going to fight against the cavalry!" Huang Shilang was silent and didn't say anything, and Su Bai continued: "Why didn't they run when they were fighting? Huang Shilang still didn't say anything, and Su Bai's voice gradually rose: "Because they believe in you!" They believe in themselves! If they knew that the person they trusted before had become a coward! What do you want them to think? You've become what you are! I didn't ask them if they agreed! ”

Huang Shilang was completely stunned, and Su Bai continued: "Even if I go down to the underworld, they will say that I followed my general and died on the way to the charge!" Or will say, I follow a coward! Lost your life? ”

Su Bai grabbed Huang Shilang's hand, it was cold, as if there was no temperature, Su Bai said in a deep voice: "They have never blamed you!" Huang Shilang's body trembled, and his eyes looked at Su Bai with some blank eyes: "You didn't blame me?" ”

Su Bai nodded and said: "They never blamed you, don't run away, you made a wrong decision, but you also paid the price!" You shouldn't be sinking like this now, it's time for you to get up! Come back to Juxian with me, those old brothers of yours don't want to see you now. Come back with me, not all of your brothers and families who died in the war are living a good life, and when you have the ability, you can help them."

Huang Shilang's eyes gradually regained focus, looked at Su Bai and said, "Are they having a bad time?" Su Bai shook his head and said: "Not everyone is good", this is what Su Bai is talking nonsense, but the families of more than 3,000 people would be surprised if they could all live well.

Su Bai continued: "Come back to Juxian with me, I will hand over the two thousand troops to you for training, and you can also have time to go to the homes of those brothers who died in battle, if anyone is not doing well, you can take them to Juxian together, and I will take care of these things for you."

Huang Shilang was still a little hesitant, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Su Bai silently took out the token of Cheng Biting Jin in his arms and handed it to Huang Shilang and said: "Uncle said, I hope you have kung fu, go and see him", Huang Shilang took the token with the word Cheng written on it and cried bitterly, he understood the moment he saw the token, Cheng Biting Jin, forgive him.

Huang Shilang cried for a long time, and finally fainted, Su Bai gave him a pulse, his body is too weak now, like a tattered lantern, as long as the wind is stronger, it can be extinguished.

Bi Qing was waiting at the door when he heard the table being slapped, he was also afraid that Huang Shilang would hurt Su Bai, and when he heard Su Bai's call, he hurriedly walked into the house, and saw Su Bai helping Huang Shilang who was crying and fainting, so he quickly called a few people in, and ordered one of them to find a doctor, and the other people carried Huang Shilang to the guest room.

Qin Qiong waited until the subordinates carried Huang Shilang away before he sighed and said: "I really didn't expect him to become like this, if it weren't for an old trilogy who came to visit me a while ago and said that he saw Shiro, I wouldn't know about him."

Then Qin Qiong turned his head to look at Su Bai and said: "His experience is no less than that of me and your Uncle Cheng, but now his body is too weak, maybe he can't go into battle to fight, but that experience is enough for you to learn for a while, you can't be rash, you know?" ”

Su Bai nodded and said: "Uncle Qin, don't worry, the little nephew is not the kind of arrogant and arrogant person", Qin Qiong nodded and said: "I can still trust you kid, okay, I'll go back first, as for the matter of the Zhechong Mansion, I and your Uncle Cheng have already greeted you, and when Huang Shilang's illness is more stable, you can take him back to Ju County, hurry up and choose a piece of land to come out, and you Uncle Cheng and I can send the tribe over."

Su Bai said: "Uncle, don't worry, Mr. Huang just fainted, and he can almost wake up at night, and the two of us will go back to Juxian tomorrow, and then build some houses for the brothers."

Qin Qiong smiled: "You can decide those things yourself", and walked out as he spoke, Su Bai hurriedly got up and sent Qin Qiong out of the gate, and waited until Qin Qiong got into the carriage before returning to the mansion, Bi Qing whispered behind Su Bai: "Master,"
