Chapter 434: The Beginning of the Edge

What will you do if I'm gone? ”

Wang Sheng quickly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "We have our own way to get out, big brother, don't think about this." ”

The others said the same thing, telling him to leave and leave them alone.

"You should keep this money and marry your daughter-in-law." Xie Yutang put the silver back into his hands, and shook his head helplessly, "This is the military camp, if I escape, I won't be able to escape far, not to mention that I haven't done anything wrong now, and the general doesn't have my handle in his hand, if he disposes of me at will, I'm afraid it will be difficult to block the mouths of the people." ”

"But......" Wang Sheng originally wanted to say something more, but after thinking about it carefully, Xie Yutang did this very secretively, and he really couldn't find any evidence to prove that Qin Haibo was killed by him, and for a while, he hesitated a little.

"Don't worry, I'll be able to come back safely." After Xie Yutang finished speaking, he walked in the direction of the general's tent.

When Xie Yutang came, Qin Haihao was writing official documents at the desk, and he didn't even give him a look. Xie Yutang was not annoyed, but just stood aside silently.

For a moment, the tent was so quiet that you could even hear the two of them breathing.

Xie Yutang stood all the time, and there was no panic or uneasiness on his face, as if he was in his own tent.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Qin Haihao put down the pen in his hand, as if he suddenly remembered that there was still a person like Xie Yutang waiting.

"You waited a long time, why don't you call me." Qin Haihao couldn't see a trace of guilt on his face, and he was high above the superiors.

Xie Yutang was unfazed on the surface, and replied unhurriedly, "The general has just arrived, and there must be a lot of official business to deal with, so I can't bother." ”

"Do you know what I'm calling you this time?" Qin Haihao walked up to him slowly, his steps paused, and a pair of eagle eyes stared sharply at Xie Yutang's eyes, as if he wanted to see through him.

Xie Yutang didn't dodge, and directly met his gaze, "I don't know, please speak up to the general." ”

"When you were chasing and killing the bandits of Black Wind Village, you made a great contribution, and the brothers of the entire battalion were almost wiped out, if you hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Qin Haihao had something to say, but Xie Yutang just didn't hear what the other party meant, and smiled noncommittally, "I just survived by luck." ”

"There's one more thing, I'm afraid you've been kept in the dark, right? In fact, with your ingenuity, you should have risen to this position a long time ago, but someone secretly robbed you of your military merits. ”

While Qin Haihao spoke, he kept paying attention to Xie Yutang's expression, hoping to see a flaw on the other party's face, but to his disappointment, Xie Yutang just raised his eyebrows in surprise, as if it was the first time he heard about it.

"Someone has secretly seized my military merits, will the general be mistaken?"

"Don't you know anything about this?" Qin Haihao looked at him with suspicion.

Xie Yutang smiled, "If it weren't for the general mentioning it, I really didn't think about it, I'm just an ordinary soldier, and it's not easy to get to where I am today." ”

Although he seemed to be very satisfied with his current achievements, Qin Haihao still did not dispel the doubts in his heart.

Although his unsuccessful brother has been idle, he is his own brother after all, and this time he died so strangely, he, who is an elder brother, must avenge him.

Qin Haihao asked Xie Yutang a few more words, and after seeing that he couldn't ask anything here, he let him go back.

Xie Yutang returned to his camp, and Wang Sheng and the others immediately greeted him, "The general didn't embarrass you, right?" ”

"No, just a casual question." Xie Yutang waved his hand lightly, he knew that Qin Haihao had doubts in his heart, but he was suffering from the lack of evidence, so he was helpless.

A few days later, Qin Haihao prepared a martial arts competition in the barracks, and the winner could directly join the most elite troops, the Xuanwu Army.

Xie Yutang naturally participated in this competition, he knew that Qin Haihao was preparing for this competition, most of them were coming for himself, but escaping was not a way, he could only go head-on.

When an individual was in a martial arts competition, he was divided into the most difficult group, and everyone in the group was a master, and everyone seemed to have been given other orders to kill him during the competition, and several times he was in danger, but fortunately he avoided it.

Wang Sheng and the others were shocked when they watched from the sidelines, but they didn't have doubts, after all, the eldest brother was the strongest, so they were all masters, and there was no problem.

Xie Yutang fought all the way to the finals, and Qin Haihao was very angry about it.

"Rubbish! You are all rubbish, and so many people can't deal with one?!。 Qin Haihao angrily dropped his favorite set of tea sets.

The subordinates he sent out to fight with Xie Yutang knelt on the ground, "It's the incompetence of his subordinates, but when he was fighting with the other party, he found that his martial arts routines didn't look like he was born in the countryside, but like he was instructed by a master, I don't know where he came from?" ”

Qin Haihao frowned, and also sensed that something was wrong, according to the investigation report of his subordinates, Xie Yutang was just an ordinary person, but judging from his talking temperament and martial arts skills, he didn't look like an ordinary person.

What is his origin? Did he kill his brother because he had robbed him of military merit, or was it for some other purpose?

Qin Haihao was born in a big family, and he was suspicious by nature, and for a while, countless possibilities had already come to mind in his mind.

Xie Yutang became the final winner, and Qin Haihao announced on the spot that he would let Xie Yutang be his deputy.

Being able to work under the hands of a general is a great honor for a soldier. But after Wang Sheng and the others heard the news, their eyes showed a worried look.

On the contrary, it was Xie Yutang, who had always looked pampered and not surprised, and calmly took over the order from Qin Haihao's hands.

That night, in order to treat everyone, Qin Haihao also held a very grand banquet, at the banquet, he pretended to inadvertently ask Xie Yutang's origin, and how many people in his family there were.

Xie Yutang was poured a few glasses of wine by a few colleagues he didn't know just now, and if he changed to a bad drinker, he would definitely be drunk into a puddle of mud, and he would answer whatever others asked.

Although his heart was clear now, he still pretended to be drunk and stumbled to answer Qin Haihao's question.

"Is Vice General Xie also a local? Why can't I hear the slightest accent on weekdays? Qin Haihao looked at him with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, a few locals immediately spoke very suspiciously, "I usually can't hear it at all, Vice General Xie is actually a fellow villager with us, I don't know which village your family is from?" ”

Xie Yutang rubbed his brows, "Originally, my father was from Wangjia Village, but because my father was a businessman, he had traveled to many places, and he gradually forgot a lot about his hometown. ”

Qin Haihao also wanted to question, why didn't he say a word, so he saw Xie Yutang skillfully speak a few words of local dialect, and then looked shy, "It's been too long since I left my hometown, and I can't say these words of my hometown well, I'm really ashamed." ”

The locals smiled and said, "You're pretty good." ”

Xie Yutang was very happy to find his fellow countryman, and drank with them on their shoulders, and Qin Haihao never found a chance to question him again.

Xie Yutang made Qin Haihao a lieutenant, and he would not participate in any confidential matters, but let him tidy up his desk and clean his bed every day, but he was like a chore.

After a few days of observation, Qin Haihao found that when Xie Yutang was doing these things, he did not complain at all, but was very careful and considerate.

On this day, he called Xie Yutang to him, "I've asked you to do some chores these days, I've really wronged you." ”

Xie Yutang's face was very calm, "There is no distinction between high and low work, and sharing worries for the general is within my boundaries." ”

"It's great that you can think like that, by the way, I think you seem to be literate? You see, most of the people in the barracks now are coarse and coarse, and they can't read a single word, and many officers can only barely understand a few words. In the future, there are some things that I have to leave to you. ”

"Because my father needs to settle accounts in business, he only knows a few words, which is not very capable, and the general is too famous." Xie Yutang arched his hand neither humbly nor arrogantly.

This can also be explained, but Qin Haihao didn't believe this statement, but fortunately, he didn't ask the bottom line.

But after this time, I found a few more important things and handed them over to Xie Yutang to do, and every time, Xie Yutang did it very beautifully.

"This person is unfathomable, we need to be careful, and we must not startle the snake." Qin Haihao sighed in front of his subordinates.

Immediately, some people were not convinced, "I see that the general gave him these few things, and he did just that, without merit." ”

"Idiot! Do you think that's really all he can do? He's deliberately hiding it. ”

After being scolded by Qin Haihao, the person who had spoken closed his mouth in a sneer.

Since Xie Yutang was so capable, Qin Haihao naturally wouldn't waste any opportunity to use him. In each of the next battles, he let Xie Yutang participate in the battle.

Xie Yutang knew that Qin Haihao wanted to test his own depth, so every time he discussed strategy, he implicitly put forward his own opinions.

He will not hide his strength all the time, so that he will always be under others and have no future, but he will not be too sharp and hated.

Although he concealed this move from others, he couldn't hide it from Qin Haihao.
