The Frontier Army
He Qi talked for a long time, but he didn't hear Cheng Jinrong's response, and when he lowered his head, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
Cheng Jinrong didn't know when he had fallen asleep.
He Qi hugged his wife, closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep together.
The next day, as usual, I got up on the fifth watch. He Qi first went to his father-in-law Cheng Wang's house and rode to the barracks with Cheng Wang.
Cheng Wang has only one Changsui Chuanbai by his side.
He Qi was different, including Su Mu, there were more than 50 personal soldiers who followed.
In his previous life, when he left the capital in embarrassment, he was surrounded by these personal soldiers. For him, these loyal and reliable soldiers who share life and death are closer and closer than their father, Pingguogong.
Cheng Wang's riding skills were mediocre, and He Qi deliberately slowed down his speed and walked side by side with his father-in-law.
Half an hour later, Weng's son-in-law arrived at the barracks together.
Ping Guogong, who had been inspecting the barracks early in the morning, "coincidentally" walked to the main gate of the barracks. As soon as I looked up, I saw Weng and his son-in-law dismount together, and walked over with a smile.
Ping Guogong was in a somewhat complicated mood.
He Qi, this bastard, is much more attentive and enthusiastic to his father-in-law than his father-in-law.
As expected, as soon as He Qi stepped forward, his smile retracted and he bowed.
General Pingguo pressed the depression in his heart and said lightly: "Yesterday you met the generals of the Chinese army, and today, I will lead you to the barracks for a day." ”
He Qi opened his mouth to be.
……
Cheng Wang had no time to gossip, so he raised his feet and went to the military doctor's camp.
In the past few years, there have been no major battles at the border gates, and the number of wounded soldiers is eighty percent less than before. Most of the people who came to the camp for medical treatment were minor illnesses with headaches and brain fever.
Because of this, Cheng Wang is much more leisurely than before. Of course, this leisure is also relative. As soon as they entered the camp, the soldiers who came to see the doctor and seek medicine were always in a long line.
Cheng Wang got busy, and he couldn't think about it. It wasn't until noon that I felt hungry.
"Chuanbai," Cheng Wangtou shouted unwillingly, "Go get lunch." ”
Chuan Bai said with a smile: "The prince has been waiting for a long time, saying that he wants to have lunch with his son." ”
Cheng Wang was both surprised and happy, and hurriedly got up and walked out, while opening his mouth to count down Chuanbai: "San Lang is here, why don't you tell me." Let him wait outside to do something. ”
Chuan Bai looked innocent: "The prince ordered it, and said not to disturb the son's consultation." ”
Cheng Wang glared at Chuan Bai and lifted the thick cotton curtain.
A handsome young man with long legs stood with his hands in his hands. The bright and almost dazzling sunlight shining on that smiling handsome face was really pleasing to the eye.
"Father-in-law," He Qi said with a smile, "Don't blame Chuan Bai." I told him that. I don't have any errands now, just wandering around the barracks. It is also appropriate to wait for my father-in-law here. ”
Cheng Wang smiled casually: "Didn't you go to the military camp with Grandpa Guo?" Why didn't you accompany Grandpa Guo to eat at noon, and I came here instead? ”
He Qi replied without changing his face: "My father is used to eating alone, and I don't want to hinder my father's eyes, so I simply came to accompany my father-in-law." ”
Cheng Wang is not a fool, he is not so easy to fool.
When the father and son met, they each had a calm face, and they didn't say anything after just two sentences. The indifference and strangeness of seeing each other can be seen at a glance.
Ping Guogong is the chief general of the border army, Leng Su is majestic. He Qi has a cold bearing, and the prince of the peace country is on par. The father and son are probably born with a discordant aura. 、
It was He Qi who was very close to his father-in-law.
The matter between father and son, it is inconvenient for others to talk more. Cheng Wang nodded lightly and said no more.
The two sons-in-law entered the tent together. Su Mu walked in with a four-layer food box. In the food box are six dishes and one soup, three meat and three vegetables.
It's not so hearty, it's much better than what Cheng Wang eats on weekdays.
Cheng Wang smiled and quipped: "Today I also have a touch of the light of the prince." ”
In the food of the army in peacetime, there is only one dish and one soup at noon, and the steamed buns are enough. The generals only have one more meat dish. Cheng Wang eats two dishes and one soup on weekdays. There are four more dishes today.
He Qi was also amused, and laughed in a low voice: "I deliberately paid my own money and asked the cook to cook a few more dishes." It also made the pro-soldiers eat better. ”
"They're used to living in the capital, and they'll have to get used to it for a while. After a month or two, I will eat the meals in the barracks, and I will not deliberately add vegetables. ”
Cheng Wang was relieved when he heard this: "That's fine." I'm afraid you won't be able to endure the hardships of the border army. ”
—————
He Qi smiled faintly, and his eyes flashed with memories and sighs.
What kind of bitterness is this?
No matter how hard it is, it can't be bitter than the destruction of the family, the bitterness of watching the innocent and tragic death of the people, and the despair of being shot by random arrows after struggling to resist.
In this life, he and Cheng Jinrong teamed up to reverse their fate and save the decline of Da Chu.
From now on, he will take root in the border army and complete the most regrettable thing in his previous life. Completely set foot outside the Guan, and incorporated all the vast territory outside the Guanxi into the territory of Dachu. Let the people at the border live and work in peace and contentment, and there will be no external worries.
In this way, it will not be in vain for him to come back to the world.
……
Next, for half a month, He Qi was familiar with the military camp during the day, accompanied his father-in-law to lunch at noon, and left the military camp in the evening to return home. Every day is very enjoyable.
Ping Guogong was not so pleasant.
A few years ago, He Qi had been in the border army for half a year. At that time, He Qi was very attentive to Cheng Wang, the future father-in-law. This is also human nature, after all, I want to marry someone's beloved daughter.
But now, He Qi and Cheng Jinrong have been married for a few years, and their sons have also given birth to three. There is only one explanation for the father-in-law who is still so close.
He Qi is really happy to be close to his father-in-law.
Anyway, this bastard just doesn't want to eat with his own father.
Such a thing is not a big deal, and when I think about it, it is like a fish spine in my throat. I can't spit it out, I can't swallow it. There is only depression in the heart.
In the past, he would talk to his second brother He Song about what was on his mind. Later, he married Cheng Wang, and they had some personal relations with each other, and they would gossip about homely things. But how could he say such things to Cheng Wang?
With Ping Guogong's temper, of course, it is impossible to admit that he is jealous.
Ping Guogong was not happy in his heart, and when he looked at his son, he became more and more calm, and opened his mouth to say to He Qi: "You have been in the Chinese army for half a month, and then go to the left army and the right army to stay for half a month!" ”
The left army and the right army are much farther. It took more than two hours to spur the horse to gallop.
This time, it is inconvenient to leave the barracks and go home every day.
However, He Qi had already been mentally prepared. He did not hesitate to accept the order.
Ping Guogong waited for a while, and when he saw that He Qi didn't say a word, the anger in his heart came up.
At your father-in-law, you smile and talk non-stop. When I saw your father, I didn't even have a superfluous word except for the necessary conversation, right?
"You stand down first!" Ping Guogong said with a cold face.
He Qi replied and retreated suddenly.
Ping Guogong: "......"
