Chapter 164: Thoughtful
In the middle of the night, a cool breeze rose and rushed in through the window, stirring the lights that were quietly burning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the oil lamp, Liu Xi spread out the parchment with a slight fragrance, and a few lines of beautiful small characters jumped into front of his eyes.
"Last year, the king was defeated and returned, and soon he died. Today, the Khans are competing for the throne, and the steppe tribes are separated. I hope you can come to the rescue, Hua Weiyang. ”
In a few words, Hua Weiyang, who should not be called the Hun princess Helian, said the situation of the grassland very succinctly. In fact, in the past year, Liu Xi often sent people to sneak into the grassland to inquire about the news, and he knew a lot about the civil strife of the Xiongnu.
A generation of heroes Nuhar was depressed due to the defeat and died soon after, and since then the grassland has been in the chaos of the eldest prince Muzat and the second prince Almond, who has been forbearing, for the king of Khan.
These undoubtedly fell into Liu Xi's arms, and the civil strife of the Xiongnu undoubtedly gave Yangqu City a stable rear for the development.
This is the situation that Liu Xi is most happy to see.
However, Liu Xi never thought that Hua Weiyang was the princess of the Huns, and now he is asking him for help.
Liu Xi and Hua Weiyang have not been together for a long time, and when they rescued Hua Weiyang, who was seriously injured, everyone spent a short time in the small courtyard.
At that time, although Hua Weiyang was humble and polite, she still had a pride in her bones, so Liu Xi could conclude that if she was not desperate, she decided not to ask for help from herself.
After all, Liu Xi repelled the Hun army, and it was her indirect killer of her father.
Perhaps at this moment, her life is in danger.
If it had been placed in the past, Liu Xi could have immediately packed his bags and gone to the grassland, because in the lower corner of the parchment scroll, a sentence was written in delicate small characters.
'If life is only as it first sees'.
When Qing Lou sat down with each other, Liu Xi ended the first meeting between the two with this sentence. Thinking about it, Hua Weiyang was afraid that Liu Xi would not miss the old feelings, so he added this sentence to the end.
This can be said to be the weakness of Liu Xi.
In this life, what he values most when he comes alone is those few precious friendships.
But now that Liu Xi, who is already in Yangqu City, there are too many things to consider on his shoulders, not to mention that his cultivation is all over, and it must be dangerous and abnormal to rush to the grassland.
The sword eyebrows were tightly locked, Liu Xi's eyes were shining, staring at the jumping lights in front of him without blinking, and the fingers of his right hand were rhythmically tapping on the edge of the table.
"Click......
In the gentle knocking sound, the lights gradually withered, the orange lights became dimmer and dimmer, and outside the window, the halo of morning light was quietly coming out, dispelling the slight coolness between heaven and earth.
"Hoo ......"
Taking a deep breath, Liu Xi closed his sore eyes, and finally slapped his palm on the table, as if he had made up his mind, "That's it, let's take a trip, otherwise one of the two brothers of Zamu will dominate the grassland one day, and Yangqu City will suffer again, so it is better to take advantage of now to completely stifle the threat." ”
After making up his mind, Liu Xi felt refreshed, pushed the door and walked out, only to find that the courtyard was already full of people.
"Childe, please save Princess Helian......"
Ju'er, who had been staring at the door with her eyes, saw Liu Xi come out, and immediately stepped forward and begged again.
Wu Shuang'er, who was behind him, stepped forward quickly, and while handing the copper basin and toiletries in his hand to Liu Xi, he said in a cold voice with an expressionless face, "My son still needs to wash, what does the matter of your Huns have to do with us!" ”
When the Huns attacked, the little girl saw countless people lying in blood, and many times, even if she tried her best, she couldn't save the lives of those lives.
And this is exactly the scene that people who practice medicine don't want to see the most, and it has also become a lingering nightmare in Wu Shuang'er's heart.
Therefore, the little girl has a deep hatred for the Huns.
took the copper basin and put it aside, Liu Xi pinched the tip of Wu Shuang'er's small and cute nose, "You are still a child, do you want to be the grandma who has lost her teeth and has a tense face all day long?" ”
"Shuang'er is not old!"
Some shy, but also some enjoyment, the little girl smiled, her smart eyes were like a star Haoyue, which was very cute.
After appeasing the little girl, Liu Xi raised his head and glanced at the people in the courtyard, including Ma Xiu, Lin Yi, Qu Lang, and even the Scouts came.
I think it was Ma Xiu who told him, but such a major event should be let him know.
"I want to take a trip to the grasslands."
When the words fell, everyone's reactions were different, Ju'er immediately burst into tears, and said words of thanks in her mouth; Wu Shuang'er rushed forward and grabbed Liu Xi's shirt tightly, as if he was about to lose him if he let go; The Scout's face changed, and he strode forward, clasping his fists in salute, trying to dissuade him; And Ma Xiu glanced at Lin Yi, and the two of them looked calm, afraid that they had already guessed Liu Xi's thoughts.
Wiping away the tears from Wu Shuang'er's cheeks very lovingly, Liu Xi sighed and said to Tong Jun, "Uncle Tong, don't worry, Liu Xi will not risk his life." ”
As soon as these words came out, it was impossible for the boy soldiers to continue to dissuade him, after all, he and Liu Xi were master and servant, and since Liu Xi had a choice, the rest of the protection of Liu Xi was something he had to do even if he was broken.
"The young general already has a plan in his heart, so his subordinates will not say more, and ask the major general to let his subordinates follow him left and right, in case of emergency."
Shaking his head, Liu Xi said softly, "Uncle Tong, Yangqu City needs you." ”
Hearing this, the Scouts were in a hurry, "But, the major general ......"
"Wow!"
At this moment, Ma Xiu shook the Qiankun fan in his hand, "Staying in Yangqu City all day, I always feel panicked, it is better to follow Yusheng to the grassland for a walk, and it is better to relieve the boredom." ”
Liu Xi grinned, "Thank you for today, Mengjue." ”
Ma Xiu and Lin Yi are Liu Xi's right-hand men, and now Ma Xiu is willing to protect him left and right, so Lin Yi naturally stays to take care of Yangqu City.
"Thank you for what I did, I just went to relax, I had nothing to eat a roast leg of lamb, and I was happy."
Ma Xiu shook the folding fan and rolled his eyes with Liu Xi, and Lin Yi also shrugged his shoulders and made a puzzled look.
"Major General, if you don't let your subordinates accompany you, then I'll pick some good soldiers and let the young general take the call."
As he spoke, Tong Jun was about to walk out, but Liu Xi hurriedly called him, "Uncle Tong, don't be so troublesome, Xi can just take them and capture them, and just take the opportunity to beat them alive." Moreover, the news of my departure from the city cannot be known to outsiders, in case it is discovered by people who do good things, I am afraid that there will be misfortune. ”
"Major General......
Stretching out his hand to stop the Tong Jun, Liu Xi said with a smile, "Uncle Tong, don't worry, Xi already has a plan, so it is naturally foolproof." ”
"Da Da ......"
The carriage stopped outside the alley, and after a short time, Liu Xi got out of the carriage and walked down the alley that was baked by the heat, and arrived at the familiar courtyard gate.
Pushing the door open, a white shirt sat quietly under the tree.
"You're here?"
Ming Miao stared at the chess game in front of him, the black and red characters on it were indistinguishable, and these two colored chess pieces were from his hands.
Walking forward, Liu Xi looked at the chess game, and later, moved the sunspot.
"Until now, you've been the winner."
Ming Miao said softly, but he sighed a little.
Sitting opposite Ming Miao, Liu Xi reopened the chess game, and said casually as if talking to an old friend who had known each other for a long time, "I'm going to go to the grassland." ”
"If you have something in your heart, do whatever you want."
"There is news that there are traces of Buddhism there."
After being silent for a long time, Ming Miao dropped the chess piece he was holding, "As you wish, Ming Zibai will go with you." ”
