Chapter 111: Angry
Qing Shui said: "The young master is cleaning up his things in the house?" Said to go to the northwest to fight"
"What? Has the emperor decreed? β
Qing Shui shook his head, "Not yet"
"Then why did my brother know that he would be able to go to the northwest?"
Qing Shui pouted and said, "Just now the eldest lady looked for the young master, I don't know what to say, the young master came back and this has changed like this."
Xia Li gritted her teeth in anger, it was Li Honglian again, this hateful woman, if she didn't give her an education, she really didn't know who she was.
Thinking of this, she raised her feet and went into the house, pretending to be unaware and called out, "Brother, what are you doing?" β
Xia Ye put down the things in his hand, looked at his sister and hurriedly said, "You ran there again, I heard that you are out of the house again"
Xia Li didn't reply to change the topic and said, "Brother, when did you come back?"
"Don't interrupt, say it quickly, you're up there, a girl's house runs out all day long, what are you like?"
Xia Ye looked at his sister and felt uneasy for a while, he was going to the northwest, and his father was not at home at all, who cared about his sister!
When I think of this, my heart is sour, how good it would be if my mother was still alive.
Xia Li saw that Xia Ye's face was not good-looking, and he said with a sad expression: "Brother, you haven't told me yet, you have to go there"
Xia Ye looked at his sister there and said, "Sister, I want to lead the army to fight in the northwest."
Xia Li snorted there and said, "Brother, can I ask you a question?" β
"What? You say" Xia Ye didn't think that her sister was going to ask her anything important, so she said casually.
Xia Li didn't want to stimulate his brother, but there was no way to tell the truth at this time, so he had to say there:
"Brother, have you ever taken a sword to kill?"
Xia Ye shook his head when he heard this, he has always been mainly studying since he was a child, and he has never learned any martial arts, let alone holding a sword.
Xia Li continued: "Brother, then let me ask you another question, have you ever killed someone?" β
Xia Ye was taken aback when he heard this, this is the capital, the law is strict, how can he kill people casually, killing people is a violation of the law and will be executed, and he said with a displeased face: "What do children say about killing people and not killing people, this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, how can you break the law casually"
Xia Li snorted there and said, "Brother, do you know what you are doing in the northwest?" β
"What can be done? Isn't it just commanding soldiers to fight? Xia Ye said lightly.
Xia Li really wanted to sneer, her brother was really simple-minded, she snorted there softly:
"Brother, you don't know what the battlefield is! And the northwest is the battlefield, countless people kill people every day, and countless people are killed, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is like killing people there, if you want to be a soldier in the northwest, they have to learn to kill, brother, you haven't even been able to hold a knife, let alone kill anyone, think about what you can do when you go? β
Xia Ye said there: "Who said that if you go to the northwest, you have to kill people, the emperor sent people just to lead the troops, what does it have to do with killing?" β
Xia Ye really wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh and said:
"Brother, you think it's too naΓ―ve, now that the northwest is fighting, brother, didn't you think that even if you were asked to command the soldiers, it would be on the battlefield where people were killed outside, would you let you sit in the house and command? Also, brother, don't you want to go to the battlefield at all? Victories are piled up with white bones, whoever is brave is likely to survive, whoever hesitates, who is likely to die on the battlefield and not come back, brother, you haven't even taken a sword how to kill, you don't kill the enemy only people are killed, brother, I'm afraid you haven't even seen others kill! Then how can you guarantee that you will not weaken your legs when you see a battlefield full of human bones, you will not faint when you see blood all over the ground, and you will be able to raise your arms to resist when you see the enemy's bayonets! Can you guarantee that you will be able to overcome these things? β
Xia Li said that she hit the nail on the head and carefully considered every word, without leaving the slightest room for Xia Ye, she wanted her brother to understand that for the northwest, his life was really as weak as an ant, I am afraid that no one would need to lift his feet, and his life would be gone after only two shocks.
Xia Ye really didn't think about this, he just listened to what the eldest aunt said to him before deciding to go to the northwest.
The eldest aunt said that Xia Fei was not as smart as him, and he was still stunned and reckless, and he would not be able to come back to that place, so she wanted to beg him to save Xia Fei.
Xia Ye saw that the eldest aunt was pitiful, so she agreed softly.
At this time, when he heard his sister say this, his face was only surprised, there was a difference between it and what he wanted, and he thought for a long time there:
"I think I should be able to overcome it, no, I will definitely be able to overcome it, since it is a battlefield I should overcome everything there, even if I kill people with a knife, I should also learn it"
Xia Li was hit by her brother's appearance, she said it so bluntly, she didn't beat her brother's self-confidence, but how can it be the same as before, after thinking about it, she continued:
"Then brother, how do you overcome it! Can you dodge the enemy's slashing knives? Or can you pick up a knife and fight back? β
Xia Ye frowned for a while when he heard this, "Why do you keep saying that the enemy will kill me, what?" I can't kill, I can't hold a knife, I can't learn, do I? Nothing is innate, isn't it just to slash and kill the enemy? I don't have to learn this. β
Xia Li wanted to laugh when he heard it, but he didn't expect his brother to really die studying, he felt that killing people was just an easy thing, he didn't know how much courage it took to kill for the first time, he didn't even hold a knife, and he also said that it was ridiculous to slash and kill the enemy, and then continued:
"Brother, I know what to say about you, you think about killing people too simply, or I will ask you to kill someone another day, although killing a person is no different from killing a group of people, but the fear and fear of killing for the first time will make you unforgettable.
"Brother, do you listen, a soldier who can't fight with a knife is not a good soldier, a general who can't kill is not a good general, you see those soldiers on the battlefield are the first to charge ahead, kill when they see the enemy, cut when they see the bad guy, in fact, their hearts are also sad at that time, but if you don't kill people, you will kill people, and there is no way to be forced to kill others" Xia Li suddenly remembered one thing when he said this, and continued in that move:
"By the way, brother, I forgot to ask you one thing, do you know how to ride a horse?"
Xia Li's last sentence hit Xia Ye directly to the bottom, he really doesn't know how to ride a horse, although he has learned it before, but then because he doesn't like to ride and shoot because he reads, he gave up riding a horse, because every time he goes out, he is used to riding a car, so Xia Ye never thought of learning to ride a horse.
He sat down on the bed, and the mess of clothes on it was not cleaned up, and in that:
"Then what do you say, I promised my aunt to go, and now I won't ride a horse, I'll be done."
This is what Xia Li wanted to ask the most, and he said: "What did you promise her, you and I will listen to me first"
She asked with a flat face, pretending not to care, but in fact, she hated it in her heart.
Xia Ye said there: "As soon as I came back just now, my aunt called me to go, and as soon as I met, this person cried to me and said that Xia Fei was her lifeline, and if she really went to the northwest, she would not have her life to come back, saying that Xia Fei was not as careful as me, and he was impulsive in doing things, and he didn't care about anything, unlike me who was thoughtful and steady, so my aunt wanted me to go to the northwest, saying that Xia Fei would definitely not be able to come back, and begged me to promise her and be considerate of her."
Xia Li didn't wait for the person to finish speaking: "So you agreed"
Xia Ye said there: "Then what can I do, the eldest aunt is so old to beg me for such a time, and with the temperament of the lobby brother, it is very likely that he will not come back, so I think I should go!" I'm really better than Brother Lobby in terms of doing things. β
In fact, Xia Li wants to say that there is no difference between the two of you.
The emperor will not choose these two people, and at first glance they are useless straw bales.
No one with a bit of brains would choose such a person to go, and she really couldn't think of anything else except to die.
Xia Li said mercilessly: "If he goes to die, won't you go?" How much do you think you are stronger than Xia Fei, except for being able to think clearly about things, I can't think of you being stronger than Xia Fei."
Xia Ye was upset when he heard it, "What do you say about your brother!" No matter how you say that I am your brother, I don't show any mercy when I speak."
"I said this just because you are my brother, if I didn't say it to others, I wouldn't have said it a long time ago!"
Xia Ye sighed there and said: "Xia Fei went to Wild, and the eldest aunt didn't let me go, and it might be similar if I went, but the emperor chose the two of us, and one of them had to go!" There's not much I can do."
Xia Li said there: "The emperor is a fool, so many people will elect the two of you, and he can figure it out."
"Shhh
Xia Li thought for a while and said, "Did the emperor say when he made the decree?" Why hasn't it been decided today?"
"I heard my father say that it seems that the situation in the northwest has changed, and someone will come to report what is going on in the evening, so now I can only wait and see."
