Chapter Eighty-Nine: Meet the Strange Old Man Again

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the lights are like beans, flickering on and off.

David and the other generals in the army left, leaving only Ren Xiaoyao and Ren Canglong, father and son. It was late at night, but neither father nor son were sleepy, and they both thought a lot about this victory during the day, and there were some things that they needed to decide.

"Dad, this war between Great Xia and Xiliang has already happened inexplicably, and now so many people have died, it is really a waste of murder. ”

"I think so too. Ren Canglong nodded, and then sighed a little helplessly, "Alas, but the emperor's order cannot be violated, Your Majesty issued an order to let the Ren family send troops to Xiliang, how can we resist the decree and disrespect it?" ”

"Hmph, the 'Xiliang country has a change' mentioned in the holy decree is simply out of nowhere, there must be a traitorous minister slandering the emperor!

Ren Xiaoyao knew that the Ren family's dispatch of troops to Xiliang was likely to be manipulated by the Han family behind the scenes, because it was related to the Han family's "plan". Regarding the content of the Han family's plan, Ren Xiaoyao didn't know, but this plan must be extremely huge, and it was even related to the situation of the entire Wu Jixing! Ren Xiaoyao had already told Ren Canglong about these things before, and it could be regarded as a reminder to his father, asking him to be careful in dealing with the Han family.

In fact, after the last time they chased and killed Han Yan, the Ren family knew that the Han family was already an absolute enemy! It's just that in order to avoid the Han family's retaliation, they didn't dare to find out for the time being.

Ren Canglong did not object to killing David, he thought for a moment and then nodded: "Getting rid of David is a good way, but we must find a good way." Otherwise, if he died in the army inexplicably, on the one hand, it would shake the morale of the army, and on the other hand, it would also make the imperial court and the Han family suspicious. After all, the death of Han Yan and the others before had already made the Han family pay attention to the Ren family, and we must not take risks easily. ”

"Dad, leave this matter to me. Ren Yaodao.

His eyes flashed with a cold light, and the intense murderous intent was not concealed at all.

He wanted to kill David, and it wasn't a moment or a half. Let's not talk about the fact that David is the dog leg of the Han family, just his performance on the battlefield today - he crossed Ren Canglong to control the army, greedily entered and stormed Tianchi City, and pursued the enemy army regardless of the life and death of the soldiers, although he won the battle in the end, he caused huge casualties...... If you have these crimes, you are already guilty and deserved!

......

Coming out of the Chinese military tent, Ren Xiaoyao planned a way to get rid of David in his heart.

The killing of David cannot be done in the open, and a simple masked assassination method is not advisable - although it will not leave evidence, it will also arouse suspicion and shake the morale of the army. For a while, he didn't think of the right means, and while walking, he thought about it, and unconsciously left the barracks.

Walking on the streets of Tianchi City, there were patrol soldiers passing by from time to time. When these soldiers saw that it was Ren Xiaoyao, they would get down on one knee and salute, and only after Ren Xiaoyao walked over did they get up and continue patrolling.

Due to the special situation tonight, it is naturally impossible for the people to go out, and there is no one else on the way except for the soldiers.

However, when Ren Xiaoyao walked past a roadside wine stall, he found that the stall was actually open, but there was no owner of the stall - only a drinker, who was pouring himself a drink at the table.

The guy carried a hat, raised his glass to the sky, and sang affectionately:

"There are so many delicate ......

Just like a beautiful woman's small waist......

Hug and hug......

Wonderful, wonderful......

When you sing about wine, life is geometric, the night is as cool as water and Revlon, it's really wet and wet (good poem) ......"

Hearing the unique male duck voice and this characteristic so-called "poem", Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but smile and exclaimed, "Brother Asheng, why are you here?"

As he spoke, Ren Xiaoyao walked over to the hat-and sat aside unceremoniously. Although the other party has a hat, judging from the unique male duck voice and lame verses, the other party is his old acquaintance - Ah Sheng.

Ah Sheng saw that it was Ren Xiaoyao coming, and was very excited: "Ahaha, it turned out to be Brother Ren! Come on, come on, brother, I am really lonely as snow, and I need someone to accompany me." ”

Ren Xiaoyao took the wine glass handed over by Ah Sheng, filled it by himself, and continued to ask: "You haven't answered yet, why are you here? Aren't you ordered to observe the military situation in Starfall County, why did you run to this chaotic Tianchi City?"

"Well, why else, I'm unlucky!" Ah Sheng said casually, and at the same time drank a large bowl of wine as if he were drinking cold water. "Old man Du saw that my idle eggs hurt, so he couldn't bear to let me stay in Starfall County, and let me go to the front line to pay attention to the war. Hehe, having said that, this time Old Man Du gave me an official position that is not low, what is it called 'Northwest Military Intelligence General Observer', a dignified third-grade officer!"

"The Northwest Military Intelligence Chief Observer, Zheng Sanpin?!" Ren Xiaoyao listened, but his reaction was only stunned.

Zheng Sanpin, that is indeed a serious member of the imperial court, and even has the power to participate in the discussion of politics in the previous dynasty! Father Ren Canglong is just the king of Starfall County of the fifth rank, and David is only the fourth rank, and Ah Sheng's official rank is even higher than all of them!

"Yes, Zhengsanpin, I really don't know if I can use a bird feather. ”

"Of course it works!"

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes rolled, and he couldn't help but smile. With Ah Sheng, the "Imperial Court Principal Sanpin" and "Northwest Military Intelligence Chief Observer", Ren Xiaoyao's heart immediately appeared in his heart to deal with David, and even if he was not in a hurry to kill David, with Ah Sheng, a high-level official, there was no need to worry about David's blind command!

Immediately, Ren Xiaoyao immediately said: "Brother Asheng, this time you have to do me another favor and go to the military camp with me for two days!"

"Oh, my brother wants me to help, so naturally I have nothing to say. Ah Sheng was very refreshed and patted his chest. Although he behaved in a down-to-earth manner, he was not ambiguous at all when it came to helping his friends and brothers—something Ren Xiaoyao had already experienced.

After agreeing to Ren Xiaoyao, the two drank a few more glasses, and Ah Sheng laughed and said, "Hehe, since I'm going to go to the barracks with you, how about you and I just make a bet?"

"Bet, it turns out that Brother Ah Sheng likes this, what are you betting on?"

"Hmm...... Just bet on this war between Great Xia and Xiliang, who do you think will win?"

Ren Xiaoyao heard the words and thought about it. For him, war is actually a very serious matter, how can it be used as a gimmick for betting? But given Ah Sheng's temperament, it is not surprising to take this bet.

Just as Ren Xiaoyao was thinking, Ah Sheng spoke again: "Hehe, I want to remind you in advance: I, Ah Sheng, have gambled with people for half my life, not 10,000 times but 8,000 times, but I have never lost! ”

Hearing Ah Sheng say this, Ren Xiaoyao smiled: "Since you say so, then I will bet that Xiliang will win." ”

"Huh?" Ah Sheng was stunned.

"It's very simple, since you will win every gamble, then it will be difficult for me to break this rule. I bet on Xiliang Kingdom to win, and if I lose the bet, it means that the winner will be the Great Xia Emperor's Court, which is exactly what I want to see. On the other hand, if I am unfortunate enough to win this gamble, it will be considered a consolation to win against you. ”

"I see. Ah Sheng understood and couldn't help but nod.

But he smiled again: "But Brother Ren, you are really too worried, because whether you bet on Daxia to win or Xiliang to win, it will be me who wins this bet in the end." ”

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"Haha, when the war is over, you'll see!" Ah Shengshen smiled mysteriously, and didn't explain more.

......

The two drank happily until midnight, burped together, and returned to the barracks.

Unexpectedly, not far from the two of them entering the camp, they met an acquaintance, David, the commander of the prison army, who swaggered over.

During the day in the Chinese military tent, Ren Xiaoyao was angry with David. And David, as a supervisor, has a status even higher than Ren Canglong in the army, so he naturally doesn't want to be looked at by Ren Yao, so the two were tense and-for-tat at that time. In the end, the matter was settled, but in David's heart, he still remembered Ren Yao's strokes fiercely, secretly thinking that he would have to take revenge if he had the opportunity.

Ren Xiaoyao and David passed by and took a look.

Ren Xiaoyao didn't want to pay attention to him, after all, he had already decided to get rid of the other party, and at most let him be arrogant for a few more days, there was really no need to compete at this moment.

But David didn't buy it, he stopped just two steps, and said coldly: "Slow." ”

"What's the matter?"

David turned around, leaned in front of Ren Xiaoyao, sniffed his nose like a dog for a long time, and then fanned his nose with his hand with a disgusted expression: "Why is there such a big smell of alcohol? Former general, you can't drink alcohol in the army, don't you know this rule? If you go out to drink without permission during the war, you should be punished with twenty military sticks!"

He glared angrily, with a hint of smugness on his face, and looked at Ren Xiaoyao with his chin raised.

Ren Xiaoyao laughed contemptuously and did not speak, but Ah Sheng beside him stepped forward: "Hey, hey, you are illiterate in military law, don't you know that the rule that you are not allowed to drink alcohol only applies to ordinary soldiers, and it does not work for people at the general level? I think you guys are really punished for spewing feces and framing colleagues!"

"You ......" David's face turned blue with anger, and his mouth was deflated. He pointed his finger at Ah Sheng several times: "You, you, you...... What are you! You don't even wear armor, and a little straggler dares to shout loudly at this prison army? Come on, take down this guy for me!"

As David shouted, a small group of soldiers ran over to take Ah Sheng.

"Who dare!"

Ah Sheng was unhurried, and came to stand up like a hero, and then generously touched it from his waist, and there was an extra gold medal in his hand: "Look at what this is, who dares to touch me?!"

What he held in his hand was the gold medal engraved with the word "Du", representing the authority of Du Qianfan, the generalissimo of the imperial court!

Suddenly, the surrounding soldiers retreated one after another, and said in unison: "The subordinates have no intention of offending, please forgive the general!"

Ah Sheng smiled with satisfaction and glanced at David, who was already dumbfounded, with contempt, but his performance was not over yet. He stretched out his hand to his waist again, took out a document, unfolded it very chicly, and shouted: "This is the appointment document of this general, this general is a dignified Northwest Military Intelligence Observer, a member of the three grades of the imperial court, and the idle people are not quick to salute when they see this general?"

David was dumbfounded again, lying on the appointment document and carefully reading it for a long time, after seeing the handsome seal of Marshal Du Qianfan on it, as well as the jade seal and holy approval of the Snow Star Emperor, his brain couldn't help but fall into a blank. After reacting for a while, he finally eased up, quickly knelt down on one knee, and said tremblingly: "David, the former commander of the last general, see the observation envoy, I have offended a lot before, please forgive the observation envoy!"

Looking at David who was kneeling on the ground, Ah Sheng didn't speak for a long time, he looked at Ren Xiaoyao, and saw Ren Xiaoyao nodding with satisfaction, before he spoke: "It's nothing to offend General Ben, but it's a big bad thing to frame colleagues at will, Dai Jianjun, don't you say?"

"Yes, yes, the general taught me a lesson!" David's face was as black as carbon, and his heart was full of bitterness, but he still turned to Ren Xiaoyao helplessly, bowed down and said: "General Ren, I was wrong just now, I shouldn't have framed you at will, please forgive me!"

Seeing this scene, Ren Yao smiled, and his heart was always so satisfying. He didn't want to be like a villain like David, but now he was satisfied, so he said coldly: "Next time, remember more." ”

Then he ignored Davy and strode towards his tent.
