Kaiyuan City.

"Isn't there any news from Dingshan yet?" Looking at the captain of the pro-soldier who came to report the news, Xue Rengui frowned and asked.

Zhou Qing, the captain of the pro-soldiers, sighed, shook his head and said, "There is no news." I sent sixteen groups of five hundred scout brothers to inquire about the news in turn, and the radius of dozens of miles was almost doubled, but I never heard of where the Tiele Department was stationed. ”

Xue Rengui was silent for a while when he heard this, and sighed softly: "At this time, it is estimated that Ding Shan has already encountered an accident, alas, I, Xue Rengui, have been looking for a son for more than ten years, and I finally knew that it had collapsed, but the result was unexpected...... It seems that I am not blessed with my fate! ”

Speaking of this, Xue Rengui suddenly burst into tears.

And at this moment, I saw Jiang Xingben, a general outside, break in and shout at Xue Rengui: "General, good news, the young general is back." ”

"What?" Xue Rengui, who heard the news, was surprised and delighted, and immediately stood up and walked directly out of the tent with Zhou Qing and the others.

Xue Rengui asked as he walked: "Xingben, tell me, how did Ding Shan come back?" ”

Jiang Xingben scratched his head and said with an embarrassed face: "The last general doesn't know, the last general just knows that the young general is now waiting for the general outside the camp, and he said that he violated the military order and didn't dare to come in directly." ”

"Humph! He knows some rules. Now that he learned the news that Xue Dingshan was safe and sound, Xue Rengui's heart naturally let go, and at the same time remembered that he had violated the military order, so he immediately entered the account again and said to Zhou Qing: "You go and send a few people over to bring this rebel into the account for me, remember, it is to bring it in, not to invite it over." ”

“...... Promise. Seeing that Xue Rengui was angry, Zhou Qing didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly sent a few capable subordinates to the outside of the camp and escorted Xue Dingshan over.

This time, he was not polite to Xue Dingshan, because he knew that the more ruthless he was to Xue Dingshan, the lighter the punishment Xue Rengui would be later.

"The child visits his father, and the father is well." Xue Dingshan came into the tent and saluted Xue Rengui with a flushed face.

"Humph! I finally didn't get mad at you rebel! Xue Rengui's face was gloomy, and he shouted at Xue Dingshan: "Rebel, are you guilty?" ”

"The child is guilty." Xue Dingshan hurriedly saluted and admitted his mistake, and then said: "But the child has made a great contribution for his father, the enemy commander is a woman from Fanbang who has never seen a man, she said to the child, as long as the child agrees to marry her as a wife, she will let the child go, and also led the 10,000 soldiers in the city to surrender, although the child is guilty, but if he can surrender the woman of the state and the 10,000 military horses in the city, will the child be able to atone for the crime?" ”

"You mean you said yes?" Xue Rengui thought for a while, and finally asked.

"Hehe, at that time, the child was worried about his life, so he naturally couldn't care about anything else, so he agreed, I really didn't expect that the woman in the state was very trustworthy, and really put the child back. Therefore, the child thinks that it is not impossible for this person to lead his troops to surrender. ”

Xue Rengui pondered for a moment and asked Xue Dingshan: "If that woman doesn't surrender, forget it, but if she really comes to surrender, what should you do then?" Do you really want to marry her? ”

Xue Dingshan said without hesitation: "How is this possible? I have already promised to marry Xiantong, how can I marry her a Fanbang woman again? This woman actually offered to marry me, it is really shocking and shameless, such a woman is by no means a good match for children, and I believe that my father will not agree. ”

However, I didn't expect Xue Rengui to say: "No, if she really comes to surrender, this proves that this is a trustworthy woman, people spare your life without saying anything, and send you such a great achievement, you must marry someone, a manly husband is not trustworthy, if what he says doesn't count, is it still a man?" ”

"......" Xue Dingshan originally thought that his father would support his approach, but he didn't expect to say this, but after all, he didn't dare to do it with his father, so he had to say vaguely: "This will have to wait until the woman really surrenders, but Haier thinks that the woman of that state is just trying to play a trick and surrender, and it is impossible to really surrender to us, so it is too early to say whether to marry or not." ”

Xue Rengui nodded this time and said, "What you said is true, if it is really a Fanbang woman, how can she surrender to us for no reason?" Just because I have a crush on you? This reason is really unreasonable, and you are not a beautiful man? ”

When Xue Dingshan heard this, he nodded his head again and again, but he didn't like it in his heart, and said secretly: "Look at what my father said, no matter what, I'm your son, whether I'm handsome or not, isn't that the inheritance from you?" Besides, isn't I a beautiful man? Father, your vision is not very good......"

But no matter what, Fan Lihua's matter was finally fooled, but in fact, it can't be regarded as a fool, because in Xue Dingshan's opinion, it is impossible for Fan Lihua to surrender sincerely, at most it is just a fraudulent surrender.

Xue Rengui didn't know that Fan Lihua was originally Han, so he didn't believe that Fan Lihua's surrender was true, but Fan Lihua took the matter seriously.

As soon as Xue Dingshan was released, she immediately called her father Fan Hong in and told her father about his preparation to surrender.

"You, what nonsense is this girl talking about? I have been greatly favored by Sulu, the leader of the Tiele Tushi Cavalry, and I have become a brother with him, and the Lord Sulu has handed over this Hanjiang Pass to me to guard in order to show his trust, how can I be ungrateful and surrender to the enemy? What's more, you have an in-law with Sulu's son Yang Fan, as Sulu's future goddaughter-in-law, how can you say the word betrayal? ”

However, Fan Lihua said: "What kind of person is Yang Fan?" Fan ears, nose to the sky, cloudy eyes, cheeks with horizontal flesh, at first glance is not a good person, how can I marry him? Father, the child has said it countless times, this Yang Fan wants to marry you, anyway, I would rather die than marry him, besides, I already have a husband, and it is impossible to marry him again. ”

"What? What did you say? You damn girl. When Fan Hong heard this, his face immediately turned green, and he pointed at Fan Lihua and said, "Don't talk nonsense, this matter involves the reputation of my daughter's family." ”

However, Fan Lihua said: "Only because this matter is so important, the daughter will not talk nonsense, do not hide from her father, the daughter not only has a private agreement with the Han for life, but also makes raw rice into cooked rice, even if the father opposes, we can't separate, and I believe that now the news that the child let go of the Han general without permission is probably known to everyone, if we don't surrender to the Han, we will have to face the speculation and blame of the Tiele people in the future, not to mention that the Han is the state of my parents, and as a Han people, how can we help the alien race attack my Han people?" Father, where are your ancestors? Where are your roots? The tree is thousands of feet high, the fallen leaves return to the roots, the daughter said a polite word, what face will you have to meet your father and ancestor under the nine springs in the future? ”

"You girl, alas, I really didn't expect you to hurt me like this, hehe, who made me Fan Hong greedy for such a daughter as you? If you go to the Han Dynasty, I can't be in two opposing camps with you, right? That's it, I'll be willful and treacherous, and I'll join you in the Han Dynasty. ”

Fan Hong looked at Fan Lihua helplessly, shook his head and smiled bitterly.
