Hearing Li Xinchen's categorical voice, Xiao Shilian's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Li Xinchen in disbelief: "Brother Li, you have to think about it, although our Xiao family is not a first-class powerful family, it should still be possible to provide some help you want." ”

Xiao Maha also raised his head to look at Li Xinchen, bowing slightly.

As General Wuyi of Southern Chen and the next successor of the army, he can't say anything else, but at least it is easy to arrange a position for Li Xinchen to settle down, and no one in the government and the opposition will mind selling General Wuyi's face. For a normal man, all he wants is "wine and wealth", if Li Xinchen wants this, Xiao Maha will naturally easily satisfy him.

It's just that unexpectedly, Li Xinchen took a step forward and solemnly arched his hand: "So-and-so is not joking, so-and-so doesn't want anything." ”

"This ······" Xiao Maha frowned, and Xiao Shilian showed a look of surprise on his face. In the whole world, there are many people who want General Wu Yi to make a promise, but why does Li Xinchen abandon it like a shoe?

Xiao Shilian was anxious and wanted to say more, but when he saw his father's raised hand, he immediately stopped talking. Xiao Maha looked at Li Xinchen with interest: "Why?" Repaying the kindness of the benevolent father is the long-cherished wish of two generations of my Xiao family, doesn't the little brother want to give us this opportunity? ”

Li Xinchen still shook his head, looked at the bronze ornament that symbolized the friendship between Li Cheng and Xiao Liang, and said in a deep voice:

When my father was alive, he never mentioned this incident, which shows that in my father's heart, it was natural to give a helping hand at that time. And my father has been open-minded all his life, and I think that when his old man was alive, he should just really want to get acquainted with Ling Zun and really want to repay a safe party, and he didn't think that one day he would seek help from the Xiao family······"

The expression on Xiao Shilian's face became more and more solemn. And Xiao Maha slowly turned his back and looked at the bronze ornament placed on the table. The two bronze ornaments, which had been separated for more than fifty years, were now together, and although their once distinct edges and corners had been smoothed out, and although they were no longer visible in some places, they were still as close together as they had been fifty years ago.

Even if there are no edges and corners in the middle, the two copper ornaments are still tightly combined at this moment, just like two people who fought side by side outside Siheung City fifty years ago.

Xiao Maha sighed and muttered, "Daddy, I finally understand why you often say that it is an honor to be able to meet Li Jiaengong······ Engong's life is bright and fair, when he was young, he rushed to kill on the battlefield, and he still taught his children well when he was older, Xiao was ashamed of himself, Daddy can have such a close friend and such a benefactor, it is the luck of my Xiao family! ”

Li Xinchen pursed his lips and was silent, while Xiao Shilian looked at Li Xinchen quietly, and for the first time he was a little shocked to find that he couldn't see through this young man who was about the same age as himself.

At this time, Xiao Maha had already turned around, stretched out his hand and patted Li Xinchen's shoulder: "The children can be taught, and the children can be taught!" In time, it will be regarded as a great weapon. ”

Xiao Shilian was even more shocked in his heart, his father fought bravely, but it doesn't mean that he can't be a man, Xiao Maha knows that he has been on a smooth journey all the way, so in addition to sticking to the basic principles in the world, he has always been a quiet man of few words, and he is an out-and-out doer, and it is precisely for this reason that he has been appreciated by Chen Baxian, Hou Andu and Wu Mingche, the three generations of Southern Chen emperors and generals.

Therefore, Xiao Maha's short comments are simply deafening. Xiao Shilian, who has always been familiar with his father's style, couldn't help but open his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. In an instant, he felt that he couldn't intervene between Li Xinchen and his father.

Li Xinchen exhaled softly, and before he knew it, fine beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead. Regarding this bronze ornament just now, Li Xinchen actually had some forced explanations.

Even if Li Cheng never thought about owing favors to others in his life, it was obvious that in the end, Li Cheng still didn't plan to let go of this opportunity. It's not because of how stingy he is, nor because he is worried about anything, but because he is helpless Li Xinchen and Li Li'er after he is not at ease, for the dying old man, this is all he can leave to his children.

And facts have proved that a promise made by Xiao Maha, the general of Nanchen Wuyi, is indeed very valuable.

But although Li Cheng thought so, Li Xinchen didn't plan to do it. Asking Xiao Maha can certainly bring him "wine-colored wealth", but this is not what Li Xinchen really wants at this moment.

Li Cheng tried his best to escape the world for fifty years, and finally got such an end when he was old.

Li Xinchen will never allow himself to follow his father's old path. What's more, he knows better, how many years can Nan Chen be able to support it? A war that swept from north to south could completely engulf Li Xinchen at any time.

Li Xinchen does not seek any "wine and wealth", what he asks for is an opportunity to display his ambitions.

Facts have proved that Xiao Maha understood Li Xinchen's thoughts, so he was very relieved that the descendants of Engong were not a gentleman who wanted to be a rich man. The children of the poor were early in the past, and Xiao Maha, who had experienced war since childhood, understood this truth, and was very happy to see such a benevolent father.

Because for Xiao Maha, if he wants to repay his kindness, the best thing he can do is not to give Li Xinchen much "wine and wealth", but to cultivate Li Xinchen as a pillar of talent. This is probably what Li Cheng wants to see the most, and it is also an important reason why Li Cheng took out the bronze ornament.

When that grace is leaving, I'm afraid there are a lot of regrets······ Just like my dad back then. Xiao Maha slowly raised his head, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, and when he got older, he was more and more able to understand Xiao Liang back then.

There was a little silence in the big tent for a while, Xiao Maha came back to his senses, lowered his head slightly and looked straight into Li Xinchen's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Little brother······"

"The general is more than 20 years old, and it is really inappropriate to call him a little brother, and the boy should be a junior." Li Xinchen hurriedly interrupted Xiao Maha, what kind of joke, a person who is more than 20 years older than himself calls himself a little brother, even if Li Xinchen knows that the ancients have a lot of "New Year's friends", and he doesn't really want to "forget the New Year's friends" with Xiao Maha, not to mention that if this is the case, Li Xinchen can't help but take advantage of it, don't forget that there is a Xiao Shilian next to him who has always had a bad face.

His words naturally made Xiao Shilian feel a lot more comfortable, after all, according to the relationship between Li Cheng and Xiao Liang, Li Xinchen has really grown him by a generation, and the original "Brother Li" has become "Uncle Li", which Xiao Shilian can't accept at some point.

Xiao Maha smiled slightly, and then said: "Now your brothers and sisters have no place to live, if you don't dislike it, stay in the army first, after all, Sister Ling is still sick and needs to recuperate." When the war is over, whether to go or stay, what do you decide separately? ”

Li Xinchen didn't say much, but solemnly bowed his hand.

And at this time, a sentry opened the curtain and walked in quickly: "General Qiyu, I found a barbarian sentry forty miles north of the camp!" ”
