Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian took a deep breath, and Xiao Maha's words couldn't be clearer. Within three days he was a colleague, and after three days he was an enemy. Subordinates who do not obey their orders or have gaps in their hearts, in Xiao Maha's opinion, are obviously no different from the enemy.

And Xiao Shilian and Li Xinchen also know that such colleagues are even more dangerous than the enemy on the battlefield. Thinking of Li Tianxia, who was famous for "traveling thousands of miles a day" in later generations, Li Xinchen felt a chill behind his back.

Although Xiao Maha's approach is a bit extreme and even cruel, in the face of the situation that Xiao Maha is facing now, this may be the best choice. After all, Xiao Maha's next opponent is not only the Northern Zhou, but also the officials of the Southern Chen court, if these generals are at both ends, then Xiao Maha is likely to be stabbed in the back when fighting with the officials in the court.

For Xiao Maha, taking such a method now is not only a helpless move, but also the most effective move.

Xiao Maha turned around and walked towards the lobby, and Li Xinchen remembered something: "General Xiao! ”

"Well, but what's the matter?" Xiao Maha looked in a pretty good mood and asked with a smile.

Li Xinchen said in a deep voice: "The juniors want to read a few books on the art of war, and I heard that the general's house is very rich, so I ask the general to borrow it from the juniors!" ”

I was stunned for a moment, I didn't expect Li Xinchen to just want a few books, but after thinking about it, Li Xinchen grew up in the mountains, and the books he could access were almost zero, and according to his previous remarks and decisions, it seemed that he had always had a taste of "wild roads", so it was reasonable for Li Xinchen to ask for military books to study now.

What's more, Xiao Maha has a straightforward temperament, and he is also Yunwen Yunwu, so he naturally likes such enthusiastic juniors.

"Of course," Xiao Maha laughed, "Although there are many books in a certain family, they are mainly in the Jingzhong Mansion, and there are only more than ten books here. ”

Xiao Maha said politely, Li Xinchen naturally didn't dare to make a mistake, and hurriedly bowed his hand to show his gratitude.

Xiao Maha waved his hand again and again: "Counting it, most of these books were painstakingly collected by my father back then, although they experienced war and many were scattered, but there are still a lot left. If it wasn't for Ling Zun, I'm afraid that my family's book would have been looted by bandits, so how can we talk about it today? ”

Speaking to re-mention the kindness of the two families, there is naturally Xiao Maha's love and respect for Li Xinchen, obviously Xiao Maha is very satisfied with Li Xinchen's previous performance and his current attitude of studying upward, this is to remind Li Xinchen that the two families are not without origin, and even irreversible friends, and Xiao Maha also thoroughly regards Li Xinchen as his junior.

And Xiao Shilian also vaguely figured out what Xiao Maha meant, and said with a smile: "Brother Xinchen, don't worry, as long as there is a book for me Xiao Shilian to read in this world, there will naturally be a book for you to read!" ”

However, Li Xinchen did not have the gratitude he imagined, but just bowed solemnly. And Xiao Maha pointed to the side room: "A few books are over there, the virtuous nephew is my guest of Xiao's mansion, and he can read it by himself, and there are still some official affairs to deal with, you two young people can do your own." ”

Looking at Xiao Maha's back, Li Xinchen took a deep breath: "Brother Xiao, let's go to the street first." ”

Xiao Shilian nodded: "Come with me, I'll be clear." ”

And Xiao Maha had already walked to the front of the lobby at this time, and when he walked up the stairs, he subconsciously stopped, and after a moment of silence, Xiao Maha still couldn't help but turn around, just in time to see Xiao Shilian and Li Xinchen leaving one after the other.

This general, who had followed Chen Ba to fight on the battlefield since he was thirteen years old, stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin with great interest, and muttered: "Don't be shocked by the humiliation, you are light." I don't know what kind of beautiful mountains and rivers and strange people can teach such characters. The Sixing Gun King, who admired his father back then, really has some ability and deserves this name. There are heroes in this country, and they should not underestimate the heroes of the world. ”

After a pause, Xiao Maha squinted his eyes and watched Li Xinchen's figure disappear at the door: "I just don't know······· Is this future a general, or a hero who stirs up the world? ”

As if realizing something, Xiao Maha shook his head and laughed at himself: "Xiao Yuanyin, Xiao Yuanyin, you don't know how to settle down next, and how to calculate the future and fate of others!" ”

At that moment, Xiao Maha flicked his sleeves and walked straight to the lobby.

It seems that everything behind him has nothing to do with him for the time being.

——————————————-

Although Zhongli City is not big, although the sparrows are small, they have all kinds of organs.

Turning out of the courtyard of the Xiao family, you can't go far, restaurants, green buildings, and shops are lined up, staggered with each other, row upon row, and there is no distinction between each other. In this small city, but there are a lot of people because of the garrison army, it can really be said that every inch of land is expensive, and it is already good to be able to grab a piece of land, who cares what the competitors next to them do.

It is precisely for this reason that before taking Li Li'er out, Xiao Shilian cautiously found her own clothes and dressed up well. Li Li'er's figure is not big, and she is still very different from the stout woman in the mountains, coupled with the brocade clothes and green scarves and the folding fan in her hand, she really has a bit of taste when she stands there.

It's just ······ Li Xinchen frowned and looked at his own girl in men's clothes, saying that this is a beautiful son in the turbid world, or whether it is a pink carved jade and jade-faced Langjun, it is a bit far-fetched. Li Xinchen believes that as long as the person facing him is not blind, he can see that this is a complete daughter's family.

After all, there is no Adam's apple, and there is a chest that is a little bulging no matter how much you collect it, and these problems cannot be covered up no matter how much you hide them.

As for the so-called men dressed as women and deceived people's eyes and ears in the romance legend, Li Xinchen has no fantasies come true, unless he is deceiving such fledgling boys who have never seen anything, as long as anyone with a little experience can see the clues.

Obviously feeling the worried look in Li Xinchen's eyes, Xiao Shilian laughed and said: "Brother Xinchen, Sister Li'er, rest assured, this outfit is just because the order in the city is not very good, so it's just a cover-up, after all, it really works with a certain face, and it is estimated that there are not many people who dare to come up and make trouble when they see it." ”

Li Xinchen rolled his eyes and snorted.

And Li Li'er glared at Xiao Shilian fiercely with dissatisfaction: "Who is your sister!" ”

"Okay, pity, don't be rude." Li Xinchen chuckled and said, "Then Brother Xiao is invited." ”

When the elder brother spoke, Li Li'er didn't dare to say more, and puffed out her cheeks angrily. And Xiao Shilian smiled and left first, as if he was afraid that this little aunt and grandmother would catch him and beat him.

I still remember the last time I stepped on his foot.
