The dust has settled, and a reunion is finally coming to an end. Looking back, it was well worth the trip, and the only flaw that could not be called a flaw was this messy flat land, which had been watched by all the people earlier because of the battle, and it was wonderful; Now it's also out of place with the loss of combat.

Whether you admit it or not, it seems that whenever you witness or experience the whole process of something, people will always involuntarily give birth to the above two emotions.

"Heads of the family, you must be thinking a lot right now, I don't know who can share a thing or two?"

Han Mingxiao looked around, seeing that no one in the audience answered, and half-jokingly, "What, no one wants to?" It's not a good habit to cherish yourself. Okay, in that case, I have to throw some of my own opinions and listen to them. Well... Take 'Thousands of years, ice and snow are prosperous!' These eight words... Oh, no, it should be four words at the moment. I suspect that most of you don't think about these four words at all, and a few people think that this is an ominous sign, and I..."

Han Mingxiao deliberately sold a pass, "but I think this is really a good omen." ”

Sure enough, at this point, not only some interested people looked at him, but even Han Xuanli, who had been staying out of the matter, turned his head and waited for his next step.

Han Mingxiao smiled slightly, and said, "It has also gone through several battles, the 'Thousand Autumns' has been wiped out, and the 'Ice and Snow Prosperity' is indestructible, some people may say that the strength dictates it, but this is not the will of heaven." It can be said that reincarnation is easy to break, and ice and snow are difficult to die. Even if the ice and snow city is torn apart by thousands of years of wind and frost and rain, and the flames of war are chaotic, I believe that it can still stand. Just like this flat land, you don't look at it today as dilapidated and broken, but tomorrow it will be completely new and unstained. If not, it will stand after breaking. Today's Ice City is in this period. It doesn't matter if we eat back the defeat, what can we do if we lack resources, Ice and Snow City is far from falling to that step, even if it is really defeated repeatedly, we must show the courage to defeat again and again. This 100 Cities Competition is a great time for our Ice and Snow City to regain its strength! ”

As soon as the words changed, Han Mingxiao's eyes suddenly became fierce, "This is a big matter, since I will give full authority to Commander Ruan to be responsible for the selection, it means that the moment she leaves the City Lord's Mansion, even I have no right to interfere." The ugly words are ahead, and the rules have changed, but it doesn't mean that the rules have also changed. There are some family heads, I advise you to collect your minds, what impersonation, fraud and secret fighting, and suppression of the people's children...... I hope you don't let me know, otherwise it will be dealt with according to military law! Commander Ruan, you still have to worry a lot about this, once you encounter the above situation, you don't need to report it, just push me to the Ice and Snow Gate to correct the Fa on the spot! ”

Hearing this speech, the guests were not frightened, no one expected that Han Mingxiao's attitude would suddenly become so tough, the order was given categorically, it can be said that there was no room for negotiation, looking at his fierce appearance, so that all the people and others shouted respectfully: "We respect the city lord's command!" ”

Han Mingxiao looked down at the obedient attitude of the guests, nodded with satisfaction, and a smile reappeared on her face, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you have anything else to add?" ”

At this time, he stood up with his waist straight, and said without humility or arrogance, "City Lord, since the overall situation has been decided, and the Hundred Cities Competition is imminent, it is better for me to go back as soon as possible to implement the preparations." ”

Hearing the sound, Han Mingxiao's eyes stopped on that resolute face, he pondered for a while, and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Looking at the look of a group of people looking left and right, Han Mingxiao waved his hand, "That's it, that's it, I don't think you have any thoughts of speaking" Then he silently turned around and held the wine full of wine on the desk in his palm and held it high.

Under his leadership, a group of guests led by Sifu all stood up in unison, holding wine in both hands and looking at the high platform.

"There is no feast in the world, and now we will thank the heads of all families for their appreciation, and Han is very grateful! Let's put aside this last bottle of wine, and wish everyone a happy New Year and a prosperous family business! Come! I'll do it first! ”

The mellow liquor flowed down the tip of the tongue, and a burning sensation slowly intensified in the throat, and after only a few breaths, it spread to the entire mouth, making the spicy taste left between the tongue more and more intense, and the continuous wine smell was like a thousand horses galloping like a wild wave. This kind of stimulation that goes back and forth makes the eyebrows stretch and intoxicated. The meaning revealed in it is not only the fascination with fine wine, but also the abruptness of the gathering that is about to end.

With the movement of the knuckles, the empty wine buds show people its rounded outline, and the eyes sweep over the carved textures on it, and Han Mingxiao sighs, "A good wine is reluctant, and people and visitors must say goodbye." It's a pity... Hello everyone, let's see you next year! Build! See off! ”

The soft sunlight poured into each reddened face, and the sky was beautiful, and there was no cloudy background for this parting scene. On the contrary, this ending came naturally, and the moment the sound of the building sounded, the clean and clear music immediately melted into the mellow and rich aroma of wine, and the two were like a perfect match made in heaven, as long as any guest heard and smelled it, the memory of the feast of the City Lord's Mansion stored inside would gather and reappear in his mind like a trickle of streams.

……

"Squeak"

The movement of opening the door startled the cold birds resting by the eaves. The crack in the door widened, and the two maids quickly stepped out of the door and stood on either side of it to greet the guests on their way home.

The noisy chatter and laughter gradually approached, and after a while, the crowd of black oppressors was already in sight, and it was Xiao He and Wang Tieshan who walked in the front, and the guests behind followed closely, not daring to surpass them by half a step. Because of their arrival, the long-lost heat outside the gate was rekindled, and it was undoubtedly more obvious than the current heat in the morning, after all, it came one after another, and when it went, it swarmed out.

However, it is foreseeable that this kind of heat will not last long, and it will be completely annihilated after the guests are gone. The so-called boom and bust is probably like this.

In order to avoid being surrounded by a bustling crowd, Han Wuyu's father and son deliberately walked at the end. Out of the mansion, Han Bing stopped and said, "Father, you go back first, I have something to discuss with the head of the Pan Mansion." ”

"Good!" With a bow in agreement, Han Wuyu made a farewell salute to the people of the City Lord's Mansion and then retreated, and there would be an accompanying chariot outside the Ice and Snow Gate to meet him.

Seeing the back of his father slowly walking away, the moment his hair sank into the platform, Han Bing subconsciously followed, but in this short few steps, when he held on to the carved railing and looked carefully, Han Wuxian had already disappeared into the crowded long steps. As a result, Han Bing simply wandered along the railing, and the cold breeze blew through as he walked, which not only blew away his black hair, but also lifted his spirits, and his thinking became clearer, just enough to sort out the big and small things that he was about to deal with.

"Brother Han!"

Suddenly, there was a light call, and Han Bing glanced back and suddenly smiled, "White!" I was just thinking about how to thank you. Why, you are also deliberately left behind? ”

"Intentionally?" Staring at Han Bing's smiling and silent appearance, Mu Baiyi's heart moved.

"Hahaha..." looked at each other, and both of them were happy.

"Bai Yi, I am really grateful that you stepped forward to relieve the siege of Han Mansion at the previous emergency!" After that, Han Bing bowed to Mu Baiyi sincerely.

Seeing this, Mu Baiyi hurriedly held Han Bing's arms and said angrily, "Brother Han! Hurry up, you are trapping me in injustice, how can you and I divide each other, the siege of Hanfu is also the trap of the Mu family, how can I stand by and watch it if it is my own business. ”

Han Bing stretched out his thumb and said with approval, "Bai Yi, your heartfelt words can be described as heart-wrenching." But there is only one sentence that is wrong...... It is not that I have fallen into unrighteousness, but that you have fallen into my unrighteousness. A person like you who understands righteousness should never be! ”

"Me?" Mu Baiyi pointed to his nose and asked in surprise, "Brother Han, when and where did I trap you in injustice?!" ”

Han Bing raised his hand and pressed Mu Baiyi's arm pointing at his nose, and replied, "Ling Tang's legs are healed?" ”

When he woke up at this point, Mu Baiyi's thoughts were immediately pulled to a few months ago, and he still clearly remembered that Han Bing's blaming tone at that time did indeed overlap with Fang Cai's self.

……

"Baiyi, why didn't you tell me about Ling Tang's injury?! What do you think of me, if it weren't for the gossip or two of fellows I heard in the morning passing by your shop, I would have been kept in the dark. People with broken bones and tendons are blocked by their veins and poor qi and blood, which causes body weakness and internal cold. You see, this herb I brought with me is extremely effective against symptoms, and it will never leave any hidden diseases. Han Bing took the wooden box handed over from the side, opened the lid and presented it to Mu Baiyi.

Looking at it, Mu Baiyi almost blurted out, "Nine Aoi Warm Spirit Grass?!" Cannot! Cannot! Never do it! This herb is so rare that it is impossible for it to grow in the cold of the entire Arctic Ice, and it is expected that only a unique environment in the Tibetan Flower Valley has the conditions to grow, but even so, it will take nine years to mature. The thing contained in this herb should be a jade box, Brother Han is placed in a wooden box, I think you are afraid that I will recognize it and refuse to accept it, since Brother Han already knows my thoughts, then please be sure to take it back! ”

Han Bing put the wooden box on the table by himself, "Eh... Don't be too busy refusing, I know you can use Yuan Li to help Ling Tang resolve the pain, but the old man is different from cultivators like me after all, and his body veins must not withstand too much Yuan Power washing. So your method is only a palliative rather than a cure, can you bear to watch your mother suffer?! Although the Nine Aoi Warm Spirit Grass is rare, it is not precious. Its effect on us is really not as good as the reality of Feihuang Linglai, but the effect on ordinary people is remarkable, which is just right for Lingtang. ”

……

When he came back to his senses, Mu Baiyi smiled bitterly, remembering his "righteous words" refusal that day, he shook his head quite embarrassedly.

Han Bing said, "Bai Yi, when you refuse to accept it, most of you feel that you feel ashamed, and I can understand it afterwards; But now it's different, your concerns can be completely dispelled, if you insist on refusing again, is it possible to ask your father to come to visit, huh? ”

Mu Baiyi adjusted his mentality, the embarrassment on his face was gone, and he said frankly, "It's all here, if I refuse, wouldn't it be too ignorant." Brother Han! Thank you for your kindness! ”

Han Bing patted Mu Baiyi's arm and said, "That's right, there are two other small gifts, please give them to the other two family masters on your behalf, so as to avoid suspicion, lest there be idlers who say that my Han Mansion is waiting for an opportunity to snarce people's hearts." ”

Mu Baiyi nodded, "The Han Mansion saves the dead and helps the injured on weekdays, and it is not surprising that the people spread it by word of mouth, so it is not surprising that it incurs jealousy and hatred of the powerful. Brother Han ......"

Seeing that Mu Baiyi looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, Han Bing said, "Baiyi, but it's okay to say it!" ”

Mu Baiyi said in a low voice, "Brother Han, blessing the people should be what the City Lord's Mansion should do, but now that you have taken his place, do you know that the prestige of the Han Mansion among the people has far surpassed the City Lord's Mansion, I am afraid that in the long run, Han Mingxiao will definitely suppress it." ”

Han Bing raised his head and stared at the lintel on the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and said, "Blessing the people? It's just a joke...... I think that my ice and snow city is politically harmonious, and millions of people live and work in peace and contentment because of the city lord's governance. ”

Mu Baiyi willingly shouted, "The city lord has the talent of heaven and earth, and we can't wait for it." ”
