Chapter 2 I'll wait for her to grow up
"I've seen the county lord." Nangong Shuo bowed to Xiao Lingshuang.
"Brother Nangong, please excuse me." Xiao Lingshuang bowed her knees slightly. "I heard my father say that General Nangong asked you to follow the generals in the army to learn the art of war, and I hope that Brother Nangong will lead the army to fight in the future and be famous on the battlefield."
Dazhou is located in the middle of nowhere, not a military fortress road, the population is not large, and it is not prosperous, it is like a chicken rib in the eyes of the soldiers, and it does not benefit much, and it is not hindered by the military situation, so compared with other states and counties, there are not many garrisons, and the top general of this garrison is Nangong Shuo's father, Nangong Ming.
"My father does have this expectation of me, but my qualifications are mediocre, and I am afraid that I will have to live up to his expectations." Nangong Shuo remembered what his father had said to him before, and his heart couldn't help but ripple, for a general like the Nangong family, I am afraid that there will not be many peaceful and stable days like the present.
Thinking about it, he turned his head to look at Xiao Lingji, who was smiling and groaning, and sure enough, this person was gossiping.
"Second prince, take a soft hand." Nangong Shuo looked at Xiao Lingji with a smile and a subtle expression.
"Okay, I'll go, I'll go, right? Hmph, when I like to be with you! Xiao Lingji was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes at Nangong Shuo, flicked his sleeves and strode out.
Xiao Lingshuang looked at his brother's back, and smiled helplessly, his half-brother is a well-known gentleman in Dazhou, and he gets into trouble with a group of fox friends all day long, so he is not as valued by his father as his father Jiannan Wang as his eldest brother Xiao Lingting, but he loves Xiao Lingshuang very much, the two brothers and sisters have had a close relationship since childhood, for Xiao Lingshuang, in addition to his mother Yuan, the second brother is the closest person to him in the huge Jiannan Palace, as for the eldest brother Xiao Lingting, who is calm and has a serious personality, Xiao Lingshuang was more respectful and afraid in her heart, just like facing her father Xiao Dingfeng, who had a sparse personality but was always like Xiao Dingfeng, who was separated by thousands of mountains and rivers and could not be approached.
Thinking of Nangong Shuo's words just now, Xiao Lingshuang couldn't help but be curious: "The second brother has always been above the top, but ordinary gifts can't be seen, I don't know what good things Brother Nangong gave him?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just a Longquan sword." It's still light and breezy.
Longquan Sword? That's it? Xiao Lingshuang was stunned, you must know that Ying Longquan, the first sword-casting master in Western Chu, only cast seven swords in his life, called Longquan Sword, which is a famous sword in the world, how precious is it? Owning a Longquan sword is a dream in the hearts of many martial arts practitioners, but Nangong Shuo actually gave it to Xiao Lingji.
"No wonder the second brother is so happy, it turns out that he got the treasure."
Nangong Shuo smiled without saying a word, took out something from his arms and handed it out to Xiao Lingshuang.
Xiao Lingshuang opened the package and couldn't help but gasp, it was actually the strange book "The Art of War in the World" written by a master in the world a hundred years ago!
"In the past three months I have been in the barracks, I have experienced a lot, the army is hidden in the dragon and the Crouching Tiger, there are many predecessors, this book is a gift from an old friend of my father, but this is not the whole book, just some key expositions of the "Art of War in the World", excerpted from the book, I know that the county lord loves to study the art of war, so he gave it to him, and I don't know if there will be a female general who strategizes on the battlefield in the future." Nangong Shuo looked at Xiao Lingshuang with a smile.
Xiao Lingshuang was stunned. Since ancient times, women have learned female celebrities, housekeepers, and daughters of large families since childhood, and they are also good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, form and etiquette, but she has been with her second brother Xiao Lingji since she was a child, listening to him talk about the outside gonzo and market customs, plus Xiao Dingfeng, the king of Jiannan, never cares about the teaching of his children, and his mother Yuan loves her daughter, and she can't be ruthlessly restrained, so Xiao Lingshuang grew up smoothly and carefree to the age of twelve. Thanks to Xiao Lingji's blessing, he has collected a lot of strange books in recent years, and "The Art of War in the World" is a strange book among strange books, Xiao Lingshuang has always wanted to get a glimpse of it, and now Nangong Shuo has sent this one, although it is only a transcription of part of the discussion, but it is also very precious.
Xiao Lingshuang knew the value of this book and was moved. "This book is extremely difficult to obtain, Ling Shuang thanked Brother Nangong."
The two were telling some interesting stories about the military camp, Xiao Lingji hurried from outside, and shouted at Nangong Shuo with a gloating look: "Father and eldest brother are back, I heard that you are coming, and I asked you to see him." ”
Although there is some reluctance, and the two families are extremely familiar with each other, since they have arrived at someone else's house, they don't see that the head of the family is not in line with the etiquette after all, not to mention that Xiao Dingfeng, the king of Jiannan, is not an ordinary elder, he is the prince! Nangong Shuo had no choice but to say goodbye to Xiao Lingshuang and follow Xiao Lingji to see Xiao Dingfeng.
"Nangong Shuo, although my sister is as smart, outstanding, and likable as me, don't forget that Shuang'er is only twelve years old this year! You're my friend, but she's also my only sister, and I warn you, don't have any bad ideas! Xiao Lingji said in a strange manner.
"Twelve years old this year, in two or three years, won't it be your current age?" Nangong Shuo disagreed. "In addition, I correct you for a mistake, the words "clever" and "standing out from the crowd" are not very suitable for you, don't mention it again in the future, so as not to laugh at it."
"Two or three years is not a long time, you have read poetry and books, but you don't know the truth that everything in this world changes in an instant? What's more, Shuang'er is not an ordinary lady, she is the lord of Jincheng who is enshrined by His Majesty, and her father said that her marriage must be nodded by the palace. Xiao Lingji and Nangong Shuo have always liked to sublimate their friendship by belittling each other, and Xiao Lingji has long been accustomed to Nangong Shuo's poisonous tongue.
"No matter how the world changes, I will wait for her to grow up!" The fearless eyes of the young man looked into the distance, fiery and determined.
