"What's the use of killing Qin Cheng?" Lei was silent for a moment, and then said: "Let me ask you, how many Qin cities have been out of the Han Dynasty for seventy years?" ”

"......" Ermao looked puzzled, "What does the owner mean?" ”

"In today's world, how many Han generals can fight against the Hun cavalry?" Lei was began to analyze, "Let's just say that Li Guang has the name of General Fei, but before Qin Cheng appeared, can you see that he once led an army into the desert?" The most brilliant record in his life was after the appearance of Qincheng. And two years ago, when Qin Cheng only led 2,000 horsemen, he dared to go deep into the desert and burn down people's nests. ”

"What does the owner mean is that the generals of the Han army who pose a big threat to the Hun cavalry are only Qincheng, and if they kill him, no one can pose a threat to the Huns?" Ermao asked tentatively.

"Yes and no. If it is said that Qin Cheng is the only one in the entire army of the Han Dynasty who has this ability, it is too absolute. As far as I know, Wei Qing, the general of the cavalry who led the army for the first time this time, has good skills. Lei was said, "But how to deal with the Hun cavalry is a problem that the Han has not solved in the past 70 years, and new tactics have emerged, and not all generals can do it, and to master the tactics of running thousands of miles into the desert, there are even fewer who can do it." From ancient times to the present, those who have been effective in fighting against the Xiongnu are only Li Mu and Mengtian. And neither of them has ever gone deep into the desert.

Thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find, not to mention the new tactics of cavalry combat, for a while, those who can do great things can be as little as one person, but no more than two or three people. ”

Ermao nodded thoughtfully, "In other words, we only need a limited number of heads, and there won't be more." ”

Lei was nodded, and then said: "Not really, it depends on how Liu Gong arranges, and I am just acting on orders." You and I just need to do our part, and we don't need to think about anything else. ”

"Understood, host." Ermao said in a deep voice.

......

After Ermao left, Lei was up and walked to the bed, stretched out his hand to open the window, looked at the lively street outside the window, the remnant sun slanting to the west, for a long time, finally sighed, then laughed at himself, and said to himself: "Killing Qin Cheng was a wrong decision from the beginning." However, he has already paid such a big price, and now he can only continue to make mistakes. Liu Gong, if you are so indulgent in your son's behavior, you will definitely cause trouble in the future! ”

After speaking, perhaps because he felt that he was a little bored talking to himself, Lei was slapped on the forehead, and then pulled off the beard sticking to his chin, touched his chin, and sneered: "I can't imagine that I Lei was a general, but one day I will come to kill the general, heh!" ”

The lazy sunlight of the setting sun sprinkled on Lei Quilt, pulling his back in the room. He took out a round jade pendant, put it in his hand and stared at it for a while, his expression gradually becoming a little painful. When the sunset had completely disappeared and Qiansang City began to shroud in night, Lei was looking at the streets full of lights, and said distractedly: "I can't be a pure ranger after all, sister, are you very disappointed in being a brother?" ”

His words were so light that they couldn't even be heard outside the window, and then they disappeared into invisibility.

......

At dusk, the streets and alleys become less crowded, and people are either already nestled in their homes or preparing to go home.

At this time, Qin Cheng and two servants carried a ladder to the gate of the courtyard, and after stabilizing in front of the door, he took a yarn lamp from Xiao Rong'er's hand, carefully climbed the wooden ladder, and hung the yarn lamp under the eaves under Xiao Rong'er's gaze, and then took out a fire fold to blow it on, protected it with both hands and lit the yarn lamp, and then covered the yarn cover. Seeing the yarn lamp lit up steadily in the dark night, Qin Cheng smiled with satisfaction, and looked back to think that Xiao Rong'er made a gesture that was done.

Coupled with the two lanterns lit at the gate of the courtyard, Qin Cheng has lit more than 20 yarn lanterns inside and outside the courtyard today, and it is considered a complete success so far.

Patting the dust on his hands, Qin Cheng instructed the servant to put the wooden ladder back, and looked at the courtyard that was a lot brighter inside and out, feeling these gauze lamps that were not very strong but very warm, Qin Cheng smiled warmly.

"General, why do you want to light the courtyard inside and outside today?" Xiao Rong'er, who had been giving Qin Cheng a hand, wiped the fine beads of sweat on her forehead and asked with some curiosity.

"Home, there must always be some warm tones, and people can live comfortably." Qin Cheng replied with a smile.

When he went to the street today, Qin Cheng stumbled upon lanterns that were not very popular in this era, and a familiar feeling made Qin Cheng finally decide to buy a large number of yarn lanterns and decorate the yard inside and out. For Qincheng, who was accustomed to living in the brightly lit cities in later generations, it was obviously not a pleasant thing to feel comfortable in the courtyard at night. Besides, with the lantern shining, it does feel much warmer, and the feeling of home is a little stronger.

In his previous life, Qin Cheng ran away from home at the age of eighteen and had no home until he died with hatred. Therefore, for the feeling of home, Qin Cheng is much stronger than ordinary people. Therefore, even if he has lived here for a short time, Qin Cheng has no plans to get by.

People want to live a glamorous life, they have to spend too much energy on things they don't like, and they are tired all day long, and at this time it is rare to have a thing that can make them feel comfortable and happy, and what reason is there not to do it?

......

Bai Xinxin was boiling tea, her movements were smooth, and her demeanor was demure.

Since following Qin Cheng, the most she does on weekdays may be to make tea.

Qin Cheng doesn't actually know how to taste tea, but when Qin Cheng drinks tea, he will drink a state of mind. A state of mind that makes oneself pleasant and pleasant. Of course, just to appreciate Bai Xinxin's demeanor when he boiled tea, it was enough for Qin Cheng to drink three pots of various teas every day.

"These yarn lights are so beautiful. The more of them in the house, the more fireworks smell. Bai Xinxin handed Qin Cheng a bowl of tea, her eyes soft.

Her voice is very soft and delicate, like the sun in early spring, which makes people's hearts tickle.

"You like it, I like it, that's great." Qin Cheng took a sip of the hot and painful tea and said in his magnetic voice.

Bai Xin smiled gracefully, got up slowly, and said, "Xin'er strokes the piano for the general, okay?" ”

Qin Cheng smiled warmly, "Okay." ”

Bai Xinxin walked to the side lightly, dressed in red, looking hazy and different under the dim oil lamp, took Jiao Weiqin, Bai Xinxin sat cross-legged behind the small case, and smiled coquettishly at Qin Cheng, "I don't play the piano today, only the piano music." ”

"Okay." Qin Cheng adjusted his sitting posture and replied softly in a comfortable manner, lest he disturb the intoxicating atmosphere.

The so-called not playing the piano music, only playing the piano sound, is to play on the spot, play at will. Where the heart goes, where the sound is.

In the dark night, the courtyard is full of yarn lights, the breeze is blowing, and the sound of the piano comes out slowly.

......

At the end of the song, Qin Cheng and Bai Xinxin were silent.

"Xin'er, do you miss your family?" Qin Cheng walked over to Bai Xinxin and sat down, held her white hand in the palm of his hand, and asked softly.

"Hmm." Bai Xinxin nodded, leaned into Qin Cheng's arms with a soft and full body, and smiled, "It's all because the general decorated the courtyard today is too warm, Xin'er lost her mind for a while, and remembered when she was young." ”

Qin Cheng hugged Bai Xinxin's hands tightly, and rubbed his chin on Bai Xinxin's hair a few times.

Bai Xinxin rarely mentioned things about her childhood, and Qin Cheng didn't ask much. When it is only time to say it, people will naturally say it, so why bother to ask? Even if he didn't say it, Qin Cheng didn't feel anything, and at this time, Qin Cheng didn't mean to ask anything.

"When I was a child, Xin'er's grandfather and aunt loved Xin'er very much, and they gave Xin'er whatever she wanted." Recalling her childhood, Bai Xinxin had a childlike smile on her face, and she said a lot. There are happy and unhappy, but now that I say so, they are all warm memories that can warm people's hearts.

There is no doubt that Bai Xinxin, who was not serious at that time, was a little princess-like existence.

"In those days, I never went back, and I can't go back. But when I went back many years later to try to grave them, I didn't find my brother's tablet. I think he's the same as me, and he's still alive in this world. It's just that there is a vast sea of people, where can you find it? More than ten years have passed, and even if we see each other again, I am afraid that we will not recognize each other......"

Having said this, Bai Xinxin didn't show much sadness. Maybe it's because I've been sad over the years, maybe I've had a heartbreaking time, or even lost the courage to live. But those are all in the past, and those who have experienced them, and now that they think about it, of course, they will not be heartbroken again.

According to Bai Xinxin's story, she was originally from a rich and noble family, but because of an accident that she didn't understand at the time and couldn't figure out later, she was on the street.

After listening to Bai Xinxin's story, Qin Cheng couldn't help but think that when God was arranging this world, it was really in line with the principle of people and groups, and things by like, people with whatever fate they had were with people with whatever kind of fate.

I wonder if it's a blessing or a sadness?

"If God hadn't been asleep, you brothers and sisters would have seen each other again." Qin Cheng hugged Bai Xinxin and comforted, "If one day I can move the world with one hand, as long as he is alive, even if he digs three feet into the ground, I will definitely let your brothers and sisters have a time to say goodbye." If he dies, I will also take you to his grave to pay respects. ”

Hearing this, Bai Xinxin raised her head and quietly looked at Qin Cheng's resolute face, her eyes brightened. At this time, for Bai Xinxin, it was the lights of the entire courtyard, and it was not as warm as Qin Cheng's words.
