Chapter 441: Self-deception
Li Xian sipped the fragrant tea, remembering what the eldest grandson Wuji said before, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. Jia'er stood behind him, and when she saw that his teacup was empty, she naturally stretched out her hand to take the teacup, looked at Li Xian and asked, "The general seems to be very happy?" ”
Li Xian nodded and said, "Happy, naturally very happy." ”
He glanced at Jia'er and said, "If someone takes the initiative to come to the door to give benefits, as long as you make a promise, and this promise may not be counted, do you think I should be happy?" ”
"That's going to be fun."
Jia'er asked, "But is there really such a stupid person in the world?" ”
Li Xian smiled: "It's not that he has to be stupid, but he thinks he has a big secret in his hands, and if I don't want to keep my promise at that time, he can use that big secret to blackmail me." It seemed to him that I would have to give in as long as I told the secret. Because I have to obey some etiquette and morality, and I have to obey, so that is right. But how did he know that in my eyes, any etiquette and morality that got in my way was just a piece of shit. ”
"Some people think too beautifully, and they just take things too easily and simply."
Li Xian looked at the tea leaves floating in the teacup, looked at the ethereal heat, and couldn't help but say with some self-deprecation: "I'm raised by a horse thief, so naturally I don't know too many rules and etiquette." It's a pity that the bearded man only taught me how to drink, fight, and kill, and never taught me to obey some nonsense. If you want to blame the beard, you can only blame the beard, who told him that he was not a reasonable person in the first place? ”
"And the scar-faced master, who is even more unreasonable than the bearded father. In the eyes of the bearded man, a big fist is the last word, and in the eyes of Scarface, whoever is fast with a knife makes sense. Now I am not small in my fists, and I am not slow in knives, and according to what they taught me, I am a very reasonable person. ”
He seemed to be explaining something, and he seemed to be smug about something.
"If one day, the person who intends to blackmail me discovers that the secret is a golden key in his eyes, which can open a door to help him succeed, but in my eyes it is just a piece of shit, and I don't know if he will feel disappointed and sad?"
Li Xian said to himself: "It's just that this process must be very slow, and it will also be very happy." By the time he found out, it was much too late. ”
Although Jia'er didn't understand what Li Xian meant, she understood another thing: "If you think it's a very happy thing, general, doesn't it mean that it's a very cruel thing for that person?" ”
Li Xian nodded and said: "Some people say that the most cruel thing is to die, but I don't know how many times I will die if I am not careful." So in my opinion, death is not the most cruel and terrible thing, life is not as cruel as death, and the life I hate is not as good as death, I am naturally happy and happy. ”
Jia'er felt a chill in her heart, and she didn't know why she suddenly had the idea of comforting Li Xian. He knew that Li Xian must be a little sad, angry, and sad in his heart at this time. But she didn't know what to say to comfort, she didn't know what Li Xian meant, and she didn't even know who the person Li Xian was talking about?
But she knew that if Li Xian took revenge on someone seriously, she was afraid that that person would really be worse than dead, so she felt a little scared again.
At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji and the eldest grandson Wujian were discussing what other benefits should be listed to seduce Li Xian, how did they know that Li Xian didn't need them to seduce at all, and even ...... Li Xian was seducing them. Li Xian's many things, many ideas, the eldest grandson Wuji's brothers and sisters would never guess, but there was one thing that the eldest grandson Wuji guessed extremely accurately.
From the second day, Li Xian did not see the eldest grandson Wuji for ten consecutive days. He went to the barracks early in the morning and then went hunting with a few men. The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't find him if he wanted to, Li Xian would inevitably leave before he arrived, and no matter how long he waited, Li Xian would never return to his house if he didn't leave.
This made the eldest grandson Wuji depressed to the extreme.
In ten days, the patience of the eldest grandson Wuji was gradually exhausted.
Since the Chinese New Year's Eve, it has been cloudy, and it has been cloudy for five or six consecutive days, but the snow in the sky just refuses to come down. It wasn't until the early morning of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year that the goose-feather-sized snowflakes fell. It didn't take long for the ground to be pure white, and after only half a day, the snow on the ground was already beyond people's boots.
This snow was a day and a night, it was very big at first, and then it was a snow star that could easily get into people's necks, and the whole of Junozawa was covered in a white coat.
This kind of snow is actually a good weather for hunting, although you can't hunt any large wild animals. There are no large wild things on the mountain of Junozawa for a long time, there were originally a few Tiger Mountain leopards and wild wolves, and over time, the Tiger Mountain Leopard has become a cushion under the butt of some generals in Junozawa's chairs, as for the wild wolves, the meat is not delicious, and the skin is useless, so it disappeared, and I don't know where the corpses were thrown to.
There are a lot of small things like hares, but this will definitely not arouse the desire of the soldiers to hunt.
So the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't figure out what Li Xian hunted every day when he went out hunting, could it be that a few rabbits were more tempting than the conditions he had carefully thought about? Is there any point in wasting one's patience like this?
How could he know that Li Xian was not just wearing down his patience, but waiting for three reply letters, if these three letters did not come back, Li Xian would not be steady. And when Li Xian is down-to-earth, some people are afraid that they will never be able to settle down again.
……
……
When the snow drifted in Junozawa, the grassland was also snowing, but fortunately, the herders had been prepared, so the loss of cattle and sheep was not large. And this heavy snow is not without benefits at all, and when the weather warms up and the snow melts in the early spring, it will undoubtedly be a full drink for the pastures.
Qingniu Lake is cold to the bone all year round, although the so-called indispensable ice has long been smashed, and the meteorite in the ice has also become a black knife in someone's hand and armor on his body. But Qingniu Lake is still a sacred place for the Khitan tribe, and their admiration for Qingniu Lake is not only because of the existence of this lake, but also because of the girl named Ou Si Qingqing who lives in a two-story wooden building on the south shore of the lake.
She is now the co-owner of the Khitan Eight Divisions.
Oh, wrong, it should be said that the current Khitan has long since lost the eight divisions, and since the black knife Khan from the west killed all the eight nobles, there are no more eight divisions. The Khitan is the Khitan, the unified Khitan, the Khitan without differences, and the Khitan of Ou Si Qingqing.
The south side of Qingniu Lake is the grassland of the Khitan people, and the grasslands of the eight parts are connected into one, which is huge and lush, and there is less estrangement between people, so life has become happier.
The north side of Qingniuhu Lake is the grassland of the Turks, which was already very large and more than enough to feed more than 100,000 Turks, but since the autumn when the Holy Maiden ordered the troops to move against the people in the northwest, the war lasted for two months, and a large area of rich and fertile grassland became the territory of the Turks.
The saints on the grassland are unique, unique and unique.
A while ago, the big Ejin Eliver of the Suotou Xi people took advantage of the weakness of the Khitan and wanted to send troops to grab some pasture from the Khitans, but what he didn't expect was to provoke the Turks on the north side of the Qingniu Lake, and the wolf riders of the two 10,000 people rode around the road behind the Xi people, and the unexpected blow hurt the vitality of the Xi people. The Khitans took advantage of the situation to counterattack and captured more than 20,000 Xi slaves in one go.
Who knew that this was just a small test of the wolf riding the bull knife under the tent of the Black Knife Khan, and then the wolf rode north to declare war on the people.
The royal court did not send troops and horses for a while, and the Black Knife Khan was the overlord of the grassland here. But the Black Knife Khan has not appeared for a long time, and the owner of this grassland is Ashina Duoduo.
On the two-story wooden building on the south side of Qingniu Lake, there lived Ou Si Qingqing, the co-owner of the Khitan people. There is also a two-story wooden building on the north shore of Qingniu Lake, where Ashina Duoduo lives. Qingniu Lake is very large, and only in extremely sunny weather can you vaguely see the wooden building on the other side from the wooden building on the other side.
Outside the two-story wooden building on the south bank, the Turkic wolf rode the captain Ke Chaqin looked at the lake boredly, as if he wanted to see if there were any fish in such a cold lake, beside him, the Khitan cavalry captain Pu Suwan was also a little bored, he looked at the wooden building, and suddenly remembered an incident a long time ago.
At that time, he was just an ordinary soldier. Once General Lang Changhong had a quarrel with Chen Wanrong, the wife of the Ai Jin Mo Club, he faintly heard Lang Changhong shouting loudly You shouldn't use him, at that time he didn't know who he was referring to when Lang Changhong said shouldn't use him, but he knew that it must be Ai Jin's wife who used someone who shouldn't be used. Later, he knew that Chen Wanrong was calculating a Han man, but in the end, he was completely calculated by that Han man.
So he was a little embarrassed.
"Is this a letter from Anzhi to you?"
Ou Siqingqing looked at the envelope handed to him, and raised his head to look at the woman standing in front of him. Although this woman's clothes are not very luxurious, the holiness on her face makes people think that she is noble. In this world, who has this temperament except Ashina Duoduo.
"Didn't he give it to you?"
Ashina Duoduo smiled, sat down on the chair and took a sip of tea, sighed slightly: "During the days when I lived in Juyeze, I drank new tea from Jiangnan every day, and I raised my mouth, and now I drink the tea soup made from this tea brick, how can I feel that it is not a taste." ”
"New tea can't be delivered from the north, only tea bricks are convenient to transport. After a long journey, I am afraid that the new tea will have already become broken when it arrives in Saibei. ”
Ou Siqingqing smiled and said: "An Zhi also wrote me a letter, and the last letter was just returned, and this letter arrived." ”
"What do you think?"
Ashina Duoduo asked.
"I don't know...... I just feel that Anzhi is trying to calculate whom. ”
"And what are you going to do?"
Ashina Duoduo asked again.
"Naturally, I will do what An Zhi said."
Ou Siqingqing said very naturally, she thought for a while and asked, "Isn't that what you plan?" ”
Ashina Duoduo was stunned, and said with some pride: "Why do I do whatever he plans?" “
Ou Siqingqing didn't think about it and said, "Does this still need to be argued?" ”
Ashina Duoduo glanced at Ou Si Qingqing, and suddenly laughed, very brightly: "Okay, don't argue, I won't refuse anything that is beneficial to me." But there is one thing, I am not doing what he tells me to do, just because doing so is good for my tribe, nothing more. ”
Ou Si Qingqing glanced at Ashina Duoduo, and said in a very soft voice: "Self-deception......"
