I don't know why, the head of the Bian regiment invited guests to dinner, and the place he chose was very coincidental, which happened to be in the street where Li Xiaodong bought jade pendants, a three-story high, wooden structure building, and an antique-looking restaurant.

This restaurant is not the most upscale restaurant in the local area, although the food looks good, but it can't be described as very distinctive.

But when Li Xiaodong came to the third floor of the restaurant and went to the guest of honor seat next to the window, he immediately realized that the head of the regiment Bian had good intentions.

Under the window, there is an unobstructed view.

Li Xiaodong can easily see the situation of the "Guangming Antique Shop" opposite, and because of the condescending reasons, he can also see the situation in the courtyard of Boss He's residence in the rear of the antique shop.

There was a lot of movement in the house, a group of wolf-like soldiers with guns were raiding the He family's shop and house, and soldiers were coming in and out of each house, taking out all the valuable jade and antiques and taking them away, and then smashing all the worthless belongings, and then affixing the empty house with the seal of the military, which was obviously confiscated by the military along with the He family's real estate.

Boss He, who was injured on his leg, was like a sculpture, expressionless, with empty eyes, kneeling motionless in the middle of the house, as if what was happening around him had nothing to do with him.

And his family members all shrank in a corner of the house, looking at him and crying.

"Take the blame. ”

Captain Liu glanced at it, retracted his gaze, and said to Li Xiaodong: "Little brother, don't worry, the barbarian knows in his heart, the two brothers of the He family dare to break ground on your head, and they will never be spared." ”

Captain Bian leaned over in time and whispered: "I have already explained, the two brothers of the He family have done a lot of evil, this case must be done quickly and seriously, and in a few days, the execution will be carried out." ”

Li Xiaodong looked indifferent, pinched the small teacup, and slowly sipped the tea.

Seeing that he was silent, the head of the border regiment didn't know whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied, so he looked at the head of the guard on the side with an inquiring look.

Captain Liu gave him a look, and the head of the regiment understood, and immediately took the wine glass with both hands, and said solemnly: "Mr. Xiaodong, the border barbarians are serious about making compensation to you, the border barbarians have no way to lead the troops, and there is a scum like He Mingcong under his subordinates, and the face of the border barbarians is gloomy. ”

Bian Manzi was willing to punish the wine as an apology. ”

He threw his head up, drank it dry, then filled it again, then solemnly raised his hands and drank it dry in another gulp.

Li Xiaodong didn't speak, he kept drinking.

When he picked up the ninth cup with both hands, Li Xiaodong took the cup with one hand and said: "Captain Bian doesn't need to drink too quickly, the wine must be drunk slowly to taste good, brother respects you." ”

Captain Bian was secretly happy after hearing this, and he raised his wine glass with both hands and touched a glass with him.

He knew in his heart that Li Xiaodong's attitude had already explained and forgiven him.

Captain Liu also wanted to hint that if General Li asked about this, please ask the little brother how to do it, but Li Xiaodong knew in his heart, interrupted his words, and said casually while picking up vegetables: "Battalion Commander He is Battalion Commander He, Commander Bian is Commander Bian, Battalion Commander He committed the crime, it was Battalion Commander He himself who was confused, and it should not have anything to do with Commander Bian." ”

After hearing this, Bian smiled humbly, took the cup with both hands again, and toasted him.

After this matter was said, the atmosphere of drinking became much more harmonious, and the head of the regiment had no worries, and he toasted more frequently and drank happily with Li Xiaodong.

In his heart, a transcendent character like Li Xiaodong must be befriended well.

After drinking a meal, the sky was already dark, and the head of the regiment arranged for the driver to drive a military jeep, and he accompanied him all the way to send Li Xiaodong and Liu Xinrong to the general's mansion.

After a meal of wine, the two of them received a set of gifts.

The two sets of gifts were given by the head of the regiment, but the source of the gifts came from the confiscated "Guangming Antique Shop".

Liu Chang received a piece of jade cabbage from the Qing Dynasty and an antique from the palace collection.

The gift Li Xiaodong received has some origins, it is said that it is the famous beauty Chen Yuanyuan in history, that is, the red face who Wu Sangui was angry and red-faced, and once wore a pair of jade bracelets, the name of the bracelet is very easy to remember, called the moonlight bracelet.

Li Xiaodong took advantage of the wine, took out the moonlight bracelet from the red cloth, avoided the light of the street lamp, deliberately found a dark corner of the courtyard wall, and squatted down.

True to its name, the bracelet will automatically glow in the darkness with a hazy glow like a moon.

Not bad, a bit famous.

It should be kept well, and in the future, which wife behaves well, she will be given as a family heirloom.

Li Xiaodong smiled in his heart, and walked towards the general's mansion with graceful steps.

When he came to the teahouse, Li Xiaodong had to tell Li Zongbei and his wife what happened today, although the chief of the guard Liu, who arrived first, had already said it, but at this moment, listening to Li Xiaodong, Li Zongbei and his wife were still afraid in their hearts, and felt that it was really dangerous.

Thinking that the officers and soldiers of the battalion directly under him have been responsible for arresting the remnants of the Red Turban Army in the city, and it is really common for those soldiers to shoot a suspect in front of the public on the street like wolves and tigers.

However, Li Xiaodong actually surrendered their guns with the strength of one person, and escorted them back to the battalion headquarters of the battalion directly under him, such iron-blooded pride is even ashamed of an iron-blooded general like Li Zongbei who has fought in a war.

Li Zongbei had respect in his heart and looked up to Li Xiaodong a few points.

Li Xiaodong took out the innocent pendant from his arms and said to him: "This jade pendant is called the innocent pendant, and it is a gift from me, a godfather, to Xiao Lele." This piece of jade comes from an old monk named Qingyuan in Nanzheng Temple, which I occasionally get and wear it for Xiao Lele, which can help him prevent a minor illness. ”

Li Zongbei and his wife listened to him talk about the origin of the innocent pendant, and heard him introduce that this jade pendant is a treasure, which can get rid of diseases and evils and protect people's health, and they can't help but be overjoyed, especially Mrs. Li Wen Xiangjun, who is even more excited.

"However, although the innocent pendant is good, but the effect is limited, it can only resist the general wind, cold and fever, Xiao Lele is congenitally insufficient, and his physique is far weaker than that of ordinary babies, in order to be safe, I will also bless the spiritual power on the jade pendant to enhance Xiao Lele's ability to resist disease. ”

"Bless spiritual power?"

Li Zongbei and his wife were full of surprise after hearing this, could it be that he still knew some witchcraft and Taoism, and could bless spiritual power on the jade pendant?

Li Xiaodong asked the inconsequential maid to step back, and then asked Wen Xiangjun to take Xiao Lele out, and then he held three pillars of incense in his hand, led their family of three, walked to the door, and went down the steps.

Outside the house at this time, it was a round of dawn in the sky.
