Chapter 165: All the way north

Walking among the ridges, you can hear the rustle of the sun falling on the weeds. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, Liu Xi looked up at the figure buried in the field in the distance, the coarse cloth shirt was wet and sticking behind him, and the latter continued to squat there and hoe without knowing it.

"Jinhu'er, my son-in-law is looking for you!"

The waves on the side waved their hands at the field, and when they heard the sound, the people in the field hurriedly dropped the utensils in their hands and hurried up to the field bank.

Wiped his mud-stained hands on his clothes, and smiled innocently on his sweaty face, "Jinhuer has seen adults." ”

"Don't be polite, let's go, go to your house, I have something to discuss with you."

Turning around, Liu Xi walked to the small thatched hut on the dirt slope on the side, where Jinhu'er lived. After the Xiongnu were defeated and returned, Jinhuer, who was a prisoner, was in a very embarrassing situation, but fortunately, with Liu Xi's care, the people of Yangqu City, who did not know his true identity, did not constantly disturb Jinhuer's life.

Now, with a field and a house, Jinhuer can be regarded as able to live.

Pushing open the door, there are not many things in the hut, but it is still very tidy, and the once unattainable Hun prince still has habits and pursuits that cannot be changed in life.

"Drink water, sir." After washing her hands, Jin Hu'er picked up the black glazed cup on the table and poured cold boiled water for Liu Xi.

The bud-colored tea turns a few waves in the cup, and the wide fat tea leaves float in the water.

Putting the cup in his hand aside, Liu Xi said directly, "I want you to leave." ”

"Dang!"

Jinhu'er, who was pouring tea for Qu Lang, trembled violently, and the cup that was about to be handed out in his hand fell to the ground, making a string of splashes, which also dyed a layer of color on Qu Lang's white shirt.

"I'm sorry, Lord Qu."

After being stunned, Jinhu'er, who came back to his senses, hurriedly grabbed the sweat towel on one side and was about to wipe Qu Lang's clothes.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xi's brows frowned subconsciously, just because Jinhuer's performance was too calm, if he could be elated and overwhelmed or cry bitterly, Liu Xi didn't think it was strange, after all, Jinhuer was once the prince of the Huns, and his identity and status were unspeakably precious, and life in Yangqu City was so difficult and helpless, at this moment, he heard that he could return to the grassland, and he was neither happy nor sad.

This made Liu Xi vigilant in his heart.

Jin Hu'er, a man who should have been reckless, has no temperament, this is the scene Liu Xi most unwilling to see, a person can hide all the honor, disgrace, sorrow and happiness, so how can his heart be comparable to ordinary people?

Once such a person gets the opportunity, he will definitely set off a huge wave.

is also like the Yue Wang Goujian who tasted courage in the past.

Perhaps sensing the increasingly fierce gaze in Liu Xi's eyes, Jinhu'er's palms holding the sweat towel were soaked with sweat, and he said in a panic, "My lord, Jinhu'er is used to the peaceful life here, there is no need to fight for power all day long, and there is no need to look out at the endless wilderness, after going through so much, Jinhuer just wants to live the rest of his life quietly." ”

Saying that, Jin Hu'er smiled innocently, "Now even the villain is proficient in Chinese a lot." ”

The eight tribes of the Xiongnu, Jinhuer had the Balt clan behind him, so Liu Xi originally planned to let him go back to the grassland, adding to the already chaotic grassland.

But now seeing Jin Hu'er's words and deeds, Liu Xi hesitated again.

If the life after capturing Jinhu'er has changed his mind greatly, and now let him go back, it is very likely that all the tigers will return to the mountain, leaving a hidden danger for himself.

After hesitating, Liu Xi said tentatively, "Since this is the case, then you will stay in Yangqu City, and when the time comes, the official will tell you a daughter-in-law, marry a wife and have children, and you can live a full life." ”

"My lord, don't ......"

Finally, Jinhu'er's face showed the anxious expression that Liu Xi wanted, and the latter knelt on the ground with a puff of his knees, "My lord, what I said just now was not what Jinhu'er said in his heart, don't hide it from my lord these days, I want to go back day and night, if my lord agrees today, Jinhu'er will be grateful to General Dade, and I will always remember this kindness of my lord." ”

Liu Xi waved his hand, "There is no need to talk about gratitude, you and I are hostile, each is its own master, and each does its own thing, I have also told you about the things on the grassland before, whether you can succeed this time depends on your ability." ”

As he spoke, Liu Xi slammed the cup on the wooden table, splashing water and splashing on the brown table, "But if you dare to invade Yangqu City again, don't blame the official for being merciless." ”

Jinhu'er, whose eyes were red and tearful, kept nodding, "Don't worry, my lord, Jinhu'er swears never to set foot in the Central Plains again." ”

"Okay, you pack up, and when the sun sets, I'll send someone to take you out of town!"

Liu Xi said in a deep voice, took out the dagger that Jinhu'er had given when he surrendered to Cheng from his arms, threw it on the wooden table, and turned to leave.

Outside the house, the scorching sun was still like a fire, and the skin of the person was scorching, Qu Lang hesitated for a moment, caught up with Liu Xi and asked softly, "My lord, is it really appropriate to let Jinhu'er go back?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Xi stopped and glanced back at the thatched hut behind him, and the fierce color in his eyes reappeared, "In all fairness, I don't know if this move is right or wrong, but if I dare to get involved in Yangqu City in the future, I will definitely take his life with my own hands!" ”

The murderous aura made the waves shudder.

When the sun sets and the night falls, a slightly warm evening breeze quietly comes out from the heavens and the earth, carrying dust and flying sand through the small northland city of Yangqu City.

The soldiers on duty at the city gate were about to change the guard, but they saw a group of soldiers rushing to ride horses in the distance, and the captain on duty rubbed his eyes and saw the people clearly, and hurriedly asked his subordinates to retreat to the side, and he walked up quickly, "My subordinates have seen General Tong, Master Qu." ”

It was the Scouts and the Waves who led the troops.

"Thank you Captain Zhu."

The lieutenant surnamed Zhu heard Qu Lang's words, and hurriedly shook his head and smiled, "Lord Qu is tormented by his subordinates, and there are only you adults in Yangqu City who talk about hard work, and at sunset, Lord Qincha and Ma Gongzi took those little brothers out of the city. Now the two adults are also taking all the brothers to practice hard, and I think it won't be long before my Yangqu City can reproduce the glory of the Rampage Brigade. ”

Scout nodded and patted him on the shoulder, "As long as everyone works together, it will be realized one day, and tomorrow the old man will let other battalions defend the city, and it will be time for you to practice and drill." ”

With a look of great joy on his face, Captain Zhu hurriedly saluted with the scouts.

After passing the city gate and walking for a few miles, under an old tree that had been dried up and buried by the wind and sand, Tong Jun and others saw Liu Xi and Ma Xiu, who had been waiting there for a long time, and Huyan Qingshi and others who were full of excitement.

"Major General."

Dismounted from the horse, the boy scout saluted Liu Xi, who was half-leaning on the horse.

"Uncle Tong doesn't have to be polite, can he come out smoothly?"

Liu Xi naturally hurriedly stepped forward to support the Scout.

"Don't worry, young general, no one will doubt me when I take these old brothers out of the city."

It's good that no one finds out, Jin Hu'er has a special identity, even if there are not many people in the city who know that he is the prince of the Huns, but Liu Xi still wants to be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, if he is investigated by the Li Tang court, he will inevitably be annoyed.

"I'm tired of you, uncles."

Liu Xi saluted with the veteran soldiers in front of him again, and they naturally shouted that they didn't dare.

After thanking him, Liu Xi crossed dozens of people, stared at the man in the crowd with his head bowed and said, "Remember the words in the daytime, you can go." ”

Hearing this, the man raised his head, and it was Jinhu'er.

There was no expression on Jinhu'er's rugged face covered by a beard, but he hugged his fists and said very sincerely, "Thank you for your grace not to kill, Jinhuer will definitely keep his promise, and he will not step into the Central Plains in this life and this life, take care!" ”

With a flick of the leather whip in his hand, under the puff of dust, Jinhuer galloped away, and soon disappeared from everyone's eyes.

"Are we ready to go?"

Ma Xiu, who was lying on horseback, stretched his waist and asked Liu Xi.

"Don't worry, wait for one more person to come."

Liu Xi said in a deep voice, staring at the direction of the city gate, which suddenly made Ma Xiu quite curious, but Liu Xi didn't speak, he didn't ask, and he was lying on the back of the horse and shaking the Qiankun fan.

Finally, a crisp and pleasant voice came from a distance, and a horse embroidery on horseback jumped up, "Yusheng, the person you are waiting for will not be ......"

Liu Xi was not yet born, and a slow figure had already appeared in front of Ma Xiu's eyes, it was Mingzibai, a Confucian disciple who was sitting on a black horse with his knees crossed and playing the piano leisurely.

"Am I late?"

Ming Miao put away the piano and said softly.

"Brother Zibai has always been punctual, why is it late?"

A smile cracked at the corner of his mouth, Liu Xi rode on the horse, and the boy scouts said a few more words, and then raised his whip and pointed straight at the grassland, "Go, all the way to the north!" ”
