When it gets dark, bonfires are lit all over the mountains.

The people gathered together in arrows, roasting meat, wrestling, singing, and dancing, and the horse-head harp beating in the air was full of cheerful music, and the sound swirled over the wilderness.

Gazing at this peaceful and lively area, Salihan's heart was peaceful. For the first time, he felt that the reason why Ah Di sacrificed was in exchange for the scene in front of him, and such a scene was so beautiful.

The petty officials of the township banners had gathered in the big tent of Dia Bird, but Salham did not want to come to him, he swore not to serve Dia Bird, and sat in front of the enemy and always felt sorry for the dead Abba; And he, Ma Cheng, is just acting for Ma Cheng, and he will return it to others when he turns around, so there is no reason to go.

Nalan Rongxin shouldered the mission, found him, walked next to him, saw him holding a bag of milk wine, quietly looking at the fires, looking at those people, and couldn't help but say, "Brother Salihan." What are you looking at? ”

Salihan turned his head, a smile appeared in his eyes, and asked rhetorically, "Rong Xin." Why don't you stay by the king's tent? ”

Nalan Rongxin said "oh" and said, "The king asked me to come to you." He said that there is a Batel Salikhan in our township, but did he come this time? I sued him for coming, and I still led Ma Cheng on behalf of him and led everyone here. He will surely want me to call you to go. ”

Salikhan turned his head to look straight ahead and shook his head slightly.

Nalan Rongxin was nervous, if he couldn't drag it off, wouldn't he turn around and say, "Rongxin, you can't do this little thing"?

He hurriedly said, "Brother Salihan." You better go for it. The king mentioned you, and he was impressed by you. You're not going. How can that work? ”

Salikhan said lightly, "There is nothing that can't be done. I'll just stay here. ”

He raised his head, glanced at the shining stars in the sky, and whispered, "Stay here, look at the scene in front of you, Brother Ah feels that Samar's death is worth it." I've never wanted to be able to get back in charge, it's good to live like this. It would have been nice if there had been no threat from Chen Guo. Go back. You have a great future, Rongxin, go back. Dongxia needs you to show your talents. ”

Nalan Rongxin was worried.

He stubbornly insisted that if Salihan did not go, he would not return.

But Salihan said, "Then bring a message to the king, and I will watch him here, and watch over him, and if he is cruel one day, I will raise up against him." That's it for him. ”

Nalan Rongxin felt a chill in his bones.

Although he is the younger brother of Dia Bird, a family, he can say anything, he can say anything, and sometimes he will shout at his brother, make sarcastic remarks, and lose his temper, but he never dares to say such a thing in his dreams.

Nalan Rongxin asked in disbelief: "You have to say so." ”

Salihan nodded and whispered, "Yes." Tolerance. That's what you say. This is what I say from my heart, and Battle must dare to say what is in his heart. ”

He comforted, "Don't be afraid. If he Dia Bird is the real Khan King of Eastern Xia, he will definitely not blame you. ”

Nalan Rongxin emphasized, "He will blame you. ”

Salikhan smiled kindly, and said ramblingly, "I have heard that the true Battle has a mind as big as the sea. ”

Nalan Rongxin sighed.

It's not that he doesn't know what Salihan means, how can any emperor let the voice of the army be noisy? I'm afraid it's not a matter of mind.

To go back or not to go back?

To say or not to say?

Is the condition for Salihan's service to Eastern Xia that the king of Eastern Xia tolerate his words?

If Nalan Rongxin was not Dia Bird's brother, he would choose not to go, not to say it, or even conceal this sentence, but now, between Salihan and Dia Bird, Nalan Rongxin will only choose Dia Bird, and will not hide half a point for Salihan, because if Salikhan really has such a day, as he himself said, he is planting trouble for Ah Ge and his family. This sentence is also an explanation to Elder Brother.

Nalan Rongxin nodded, bowed apologetically to Salihan, turned around and left.

By the time they reached the tent, some people were already drunk.

A couple of drunken petty officers forgot who they were in front of.

One of them stood up, patted his chest and shouted, "King." If we hadn't come to your rescue, you'd be stuck here. For this, you drink another bowl. Drink another bowl, and next time, we'll save you. Save ten times, save a hundred times. ”

Dia Bird gave him a hand and said with a smile, "Good." Good. Good. Nagu drank another bowl. ”

Some of the Oxen under his command suddenly became reluctant and shouted, "What did you say? Who do you save? ”

He got up, and as he walked towards the man, he turned his head and cried out, "The king of wine cannot drink." Are they still taking credit for it? You take care of their faces, but they have gone to heaven, and it is a great merit, you are conniving at them, and you are belittleing us, as if we can't protect the king, and it depends on them. ”

Nalan Rongxin was about to walk over, and the two drunken men pushed each other, and the theory was opened.

There is a precedent of heavy punishment in private fights, and even more so in front of the king, two people refuse to fight, even if they are drunk, they just push theories.

Diao also dissuaded with a smile, saying, "Let's all drink well." Don't push me. ”

So, they stopped pushing and moved their mouths.

The township flag junior said loudly: "Originally, you were useless, you couldn't protect the king, and we were bad for the king's arrangement, didn't you can't hunt, blame others for shocking your prey?" ”

The bully said angrily: "You are not arrogant, the king is in the county banner, to attract the enemy, encircle and annihilate, several armies are all marching in the periphery, but before they reach the designated position, you have frightened the enemy away, and now you must not have time to block the enemy's retreat, and the enemy may be able to escape." You have ruined all of our plans to mobilize thousands of people, and you still have credit. The king will not let you pursue, for fear that you will cause casualties, saying that you are a common man after all, and he still saves face for you, not to say that you ruined his plan, but you don't know what to do, and you still dare to take credit? ”

The petty officer let out an "ah".

Many township flag officials immediately looked at Dia Bird, some of them were drunk, and most of them woke up at once.

In a moment, someone came to his senses and came forward to plead guilty.

Dia Bird sat still and said with a smile: "I don't blame you, I want to blame you, I blame Gu for not thinking well, I didn't think that the people within a radius of hundreds of miles would come to save Gu, I didn't calculate well, if I told you in advance, there would be no such difference, I don't blame you." I don't blame you guys. You are also worried about the comfort of the lonely soldiers, and the friendship is rare. Don't mention it again today, and whoever mentions it again will be punished for drinking. It's not necessarily a bad thing to let go, and we have more reason to avenge the dead people, send troops to crusade against Chen Guo, and chase them to their nest. ”

Nalan Rongxin shook his head with a wry smile.

Sometimes, he also thinks that Brother Ah is too open-minded.

If you let people talk nonsense, the king fights and fights and runs away surrounded by others, which means that the king is incompetent, but it is related to the dignity of Battle and the majesty of the king, but Brother is silent, as usual, he is threatened by eating others for this matter, and he is poured wine, but it is Brother's subordinates who can't help it and jump out to find out.

Nalan Rongxin wanted to deliver Salihan's disrespectful words to Dia Bird, and he didn't dare to face everyone, so he stepped forward, walked up to him in the surprise of the township flag officials, leaned in his ear, and sighed quietly, "Brother." Saliham refused to come. He also asked me to bring you a message, saying, "He will watch you from outside, and spy on you, and if you become cruel one day, he will rise up against you." ”

Dia Bird's face turned grim.

Nalan Rongxin himself felt like a villain.

But he has no way, his position is there, he can't hide his brother from the family's enemies or potential enemies.

He asked in his heart: Will Brother kill Salihan?

Dia Bird nodded and whispered, "I didn't expect that. I really didn't expect it. He would have said something like that. Accidentally. Accidentally. He stood up and demanded, "Take me to him." Then he turned back and asked, "Bring some wine." Then he said, "All those who are Bartel are coming with me." ”

At this greeting, except for a few references, almost everyone stood up.

But then, the clerks also stood up.

Although they thought that Battle was capable of fighting, they felt that it was good for them to follow.

So Dia Bird went ahead, and the Drill Leopard followed with his wine, and the Tooth Pig followed with his helmet, and a long line of men followed behind his buttocks.

Nalan Rongxin regretted a little, and said in his heart: "Brother, brother." If you get to the point, kill him. How does my brother behave. Others don't know about me, so they see me and say something, you run and kill someone, you must think I'm a snitch. ”

So he wanted to slip back.

Unexpectedly, Diao grabbed his arm, and when he mentioned it, he flew in front of Diao.

He almost wanted to cry, and said secretly: "Brother Brother's thunderous anger doesn't care about me anymore." Force me to be a villain. Look at him like this, I ...... I, I went home to find my aunt to sue me. ”

His "eldest mother" is naturally Dia Bird and his aunt.

Dia Bird drank categorically: "Don't grind. ”

He was scared, so he had to go forward with grievances.

There is no way, Brother is majestic, if a group of people carry it together, it is fine, but a single person, he doesn't dare.
