Northwest, border passes!
It was not early, and the barracks were quiet, and only the cold wind whistling in my ears could be heard.
A horse-drawn carriage came from the direction of the town towards the border pass, and the horses pulling the cart in front of them walked very slowly, and the coachman walked on the road, because the road was not easy to walk after leaving the town.
The main reason is that it has been snowing in recent days, and some snow has accumulated on the road, and the carriage cannot gallop. Along the way, the coachman met someone who was easy to walk, so he sat down and whipped up for a while, and then came down and walked in a snowy place on the road.
When night fell, the carriage finally arrived at the barracks.
"Who's coming? The barracks are heavy, and idle people are not allowed to approach! ”
"Get out of here!"
The soldier at the outermost level of the handle has already opened his mouth, and his words are loud!
The coachman was startled, and then looked at the carriage with uneasiness.
A slender hand lifted the curtain, and then the man lowered his head and came out: "Two brothers, it's me!" The other party slowly got out of the car and bowed to the two guarding the door.
"It turned out to be Master Xu!"
"I don't know why Lord Xu came so late?"
The two guarding the door were puzzled, but when they faced Xu Xiuning, they had respect on their faces. Who doesn't know that everyone can have a good year, and it is inseparable from this. It can even be said that without him, they are estimated to be even worse than in previous years.
In addition, this young Xu Zhubo is very favored by the general, and he can be described as a popular person in front of the general.
Xu Xiuning looked at the looks of the two of them, pointed to the things on the carriage and said, "Today happens to be Laba, I boiled some porridge in the town and sent it to the general to taste!" I have done a lot, and everyone who is keeping vigil can also come and get a bowl, and it will be regarded as a time to pass this laba. ”
As soon as they heard this, the two of them understood.
It is said that this Xu Zhubo likes to cook some food during the festival, but he didn't expect this rumor to be true.
After the two glanced at each other, they didn't let the carriage over, but said to Xu Xiuning: "Master Xu, I'll wait for someone to come and move things." With that, one of them had already gone to call someone, and the other stepped forward to move the things down with the coachman.
Xu Xiuning gave the driver the money, thanked him, and let him go.
When a few people came to the camp with a few wooden barrels covered with lids, they could still see the candles burning outside the big tent.
"Master Xu, is it okay to put these things here?"
"The general hasn't stopped yet!"
Xu Xiuning nodded and said to two of them: "Thank you two, and Xu can do the rest." Then he added: "Come to the tent later!" I made a lot of laba porridge, and everyone tried it together! ”
Everyone left in gratitude, leaving Xu Xiuning at the door with a food box and a few buckets of porridge.
Looking up at the military tent in the bright hall, Xu Xiuning said to the soldiers at the door: "Can you spread the word, Xu Xiuning asks to see the general!" ”
"Master Xu is polite, please wait!"
One of them, who was the general's entourage, raised his hands, and the hand holding the long sword made a sound and said politely.
After a while, the man came out and stretched out a hand to Xu Xiuning and signaled, "The general is invited!" ”
Xu Xiuning walked in with a food box, and saw the general who looked down at the map and seemed to be thinking, and put the food box on the table next to him.
He didn't bother, just found a place to stand and waited in silence.
I don't know how long it took, the general seemed to think of something, suddenly raised his head, and saw at a glance that there was one more person in the camp. And the other party seems to have been waiting for a long time.
"Look at me, I almost forgot!" General Zhengxi smiled apologetically, and then stretched out his hand to signal a please: "Please take a seat!" ”
Glancing at the food box on the table, General Zhengxi asked, "Come here so late, are you here to deliver food to General Ben?" "Or, General Zhengxi glanced at the letter that had been delivered in recent days, and only then did he realize that it had already been Laba.
Xu Xiuning's expression was faint, and he got up and replied: "It happened to be Laba, and I made some porridge in the next, and I hope the general will not dislike it!" ”
When the general heard this, he stood up and walked over to open the lid of the food box.
Inside, a bowl of white porcelain with a lid was opened, and it was filled with warm porridge that was just enough to eat.
The colors are beautiful, and the aroma makes you feel appetizing.
"I look at the good work, but I don't know how it tastes."
As he spoke, the general reached out and took out the bowl with the size of his face, and added with a smile: "Just this bowl, but it's almost catching up with my face." As he spoke, General Zhengxi glanced outside.
"I made a few pots below, and those outside asked the general to distribute them to the brothers who kept vigil tonight!" Xu Xiuning stood up and bowed over.
General Zhengxi retracted his gaze, nodded, and came to the table with a bowl to sit down.
Before he started eating, he sighed to himself, and then raised his eyes and said to Xu Xiuning: "You have a heart!" ”
Once upon a time, they could still celebrate Laba at the border, and those festivals were too far away from them. They've all forgotten what year it is!
Xu Xiuning shook his head and said politely.
It was about too late, and the general was hungry. Or maybe because he ate these things and thought of something, he unconsciously ate a lot, and when he finished eating, he looked at the empty bowl and realized that he had eaten enough.
"Hehe, if you eat too much, you have to eat it!"
The general of Zhengxi smiled heartily, stood up, and said to Xu Xiuning again: "Go, go with me!" ”
Xu Xiuning stood up, his slender figure in a long robe looked particularly handsome in the silver moonlight.
The porridge at the door has been carried away, and the barracks are not much lively at this time, and they are still quiet.
General Zhengxi stood in the snow, about a hundred meters away from the barracks.
Looking at the endless snow, General Zhengxi's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Last time, your method was good, and the merchants on those lists did have blood. However, this method can only be used once. You should know! ”
Xu Xiuning had no annoyance, no embarrassment, and no disappointment.
He looked faintly at the place illuminated by the snow in front of him, stood there with his hands in his hands, and said unhurriedly: "This move can naturally only be used once." If you want food, grass and military salaries, there is no problem, you still need to think long-term! ”
He seemed to know that this could only be done once, and there was always a sense in his tone that he was in control.
It is said that the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first!
But when it came to the general of Zhengxi, the grain and grass were quite reluctant, but the military salary was delayed again and again.
Among them, it must have something to do with some people in Shangjing. Even, it is not excluded that the one above will open one eye and close one eye.
Xu Xiuning would rather be the former!
The general of Zhengxi sighed, and the hot breath exhaled was like a white mist, and it was blown away by the wind as soon as it was exhaled.
The scattered snowflakes fell on the black hair of the two, and on their shoulders, the two seemed to feel nothing.
"The situation in Beijing is not in my favor, and I have sent someone to investigate the people behind it, and I believe that there will be clues in the near future. Where did the white flowers come from, and who is in the hands of them, and where they finally went, they can still be found. ”
It's just that I'm afraid, and if I find him, I can't deal with it myself, and it's troublesome.
"If the general can find out, just find out that person! It's human, and everyone has weaknesses! Xu Xiuning said, unconsciously remembering the person who had made him look for a long time.
