Chapter 2: Teachers and Friends
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Lin Xi, who was asleep, was shouted by a hurried voice.
"General, the general is here."
"Teacher? Take me there! ”
Hearing the teacher's arrival, Lin Xi instantly sobered up, hurriedly packed up his clothes, and trotted all the way to the big tent.
"Teacher! The students don't know that the teacher has arrived, and they are disappointed, so they hope to beg for forgiveness! ”
Cao Bin smiled and helped Lin Xi up, his face full of kindness: "Okay, okay!" Hurry up, hurry up! ”
"Thank you!"
"I heard Liu Feng talk about your actions, well done, otherwise the Liao State might not be able to cause some sabotage. You haven't studied in vain for more than ten years, no worse than your teacher! ”
"The student doesn't dare, just me, I'm still far from the teacher."
"You remember, don't forget at any time, march to fight, don't go deep alone, act recklessly, this is a taboo in the soldiers, I'm just too anxious, I ended up in this situation, you must not follow in my footsteps."
"Teacher, in my heart, you will always be the invincible general of the Liao Song Dynasty!"
"Haha...... You little ghost, Megatron Liao Song can no longer be used on my teacher...... Ten years ago, I was mainly responsible for the defeat in the war, and now that I think about it, I still regret it, if it is ......"
Lin Xi hurriedly interrupted Cao Bin and happily took out a jar of old wine: "Teacher, don't blame yourself, the student brought a jar of wine, please drink it with the teacher!" ”
"Okay, sit! I have been a student for more than ten years, and I know that I love to drink! ”
"I'll fill it up for the teacher, please!"
The two chatted while drinking: "Teacher, how is the war going recently?" ”
"Alas...... The Hexi Dangxiang people were attached to the Liao State, and the pressure on the border of the Great Song Dynasty was very great, although there was no major war recently, but ...... I always felt like the calm before the storm. ”
"Teacher, in my opinion, there will be a big war in Song Liao within ten years, and ...... It must be a big battle that will go down in history. ”
"In the past two days, I heard that there have been rebellions in Xichuan, and they have now captured Hanzhou and Shuzhou, although it is far away from us, but I can think that the pressure on the imperial court must be very great."
"Teacher, now many ministers in the DPRK and China are advocating peace with Liao, and the imperial court has also ordered us to stick to the border. I think...... This court is also unreliable, and blindly sticks to it, but I am afraid that I will not be able to keep anything. ”
"You can't talk nonsense in other places, it's dangerous to be heard by someone with a heart."
"Well, I know, teacher."
"I've been feeling worse lately, and I'm just scared...... Time is running out......"
"Teacher! What are you talking about? ”
"Lin Xi, if I die, I hope - you can take over the responsibility of guarding the border."
"Teacher, I know you have high expectations for me, but after all, I am young, and sometimes I act impulsively and recklessly, and I don't think I can take on such a big responsibility now."
"Alas...... Well, if the court can send a trustworthy celebrity to guard the border in the future, I hope that you will do your best to assist him in guarding the border. ”
"Good! Students obey! ”
"That's it! After drinking this last bowl, it's time for me to go back. ”
"Teacher, are you leaving?"
"Over there in the camp, no one will have an accident for too long."
"Students send teachers."
"No need, although there has been no war recently, the investigation cannot be relaxed."
"Yes!"
……
In the evening, Lin Xi was roasting a chicken leg in front of the tent when he heard a noise in the camp from a distance.
"Liu Feng, did you hear a loud noise?"
"This ...... Heard it! ”
"Come with me!"
I followed the sound and found that the one who made the noise was the one who was holding Yelu Yanshou. Lin Xi motioned for Liu Feng to wait first, and then knelt down by the tent to listen carefully.
"You prisoner still want to eat? If I didn't kill you, I will give you face! Oops, what is this? ”
"My stuff! Give me! ”
"Fuck off! You Liao people dare to be so arrogant! This was followed by a loud slap in the face.
"Stop!"
In the tent, two sergeants and Yelu Yanshou were fighting for something, and the food was spilled all over the ground, and Yanshou's face was flushed, obviously he had just been slapped in the face. Even so, she clutched the things in her hand tightly and didn't let the two snatch them away.
"Will... The general ......" The two of them were so frightened that they let go of their hands, and Lin Xi's murderous aura overwhelmed them.
Liu Feng slapped the two of them and scolded: "Bastard, you didn't say that you are not allowed to abuse prisoners, and you still rob people's things, you have to be shameless!" ”
"Will... The general forgives the sin ......"
The two of them lowered their heads, not daring to take a breath.
Lin Xi suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "Go to the prison army and get thirty military sticks, Liu Feng, look at them." ”
"Yes. Walk! After speaking, Liu Feng escorted the two soldiers out of the tent.
Yanshou lowered his head, biting his lip, and there were still a little tears in his eyes. Even so, she picked up the cake that had fallen on the ground and was about to stuff it into her mouth.
"Okay," Lin Xi grabbed Yanshou's arm, "Don't pick it up, I'll go get you a new one." ”
When Lin Xi came back with the food, he saw that Yanshou was still hugging his legs like the last time they met, with most of his face buried in his arms, sobbing lowly.
Lin Xi put down his rice bowl, sat on the edge of the bed, and waited quietly.
After a long while, Lin Xi opened his eyes, only to see that Yanshou wiped his tears, his nose twitched, and he seemed to be much more stable.
"Finished crying?"
Yanshou nodded, "...... Well. ”
"Eat when you're done crying."
"Thank you......"
"You're welcome."
Yanshou was holding a piece of cake in one hand, and the other hand was still tightly clutching the jade pendant.
"That jade pendant is very important to you."
Yanshou glanced at the jade pendant and nodded.
"Can you tell me about it?"
"I ......" life extension is still a little difficult to speak.
"I don't tell anyone."
"This is a relic of my father. I was the youngest daughter in the family, and my father was gone for as long as I can remember. I can't remember what he looked like, the only thing I remember is this jade pendant. In my mind's eye, it was only at this time that our family would be reunited...... It's what a family looks like......"
"What do you mean?"
"The queen mother is in power, and my sister listens to the queen mother. The Liao people all advocated going south. I don't like to fight, I ......"
"You don't have a good relationship."
"No, the queen mother is very good to me, it's just ...... The Queen Mother wants to raise us to be like her, but ...... I was born with neither the means nor the scheming, and I don't like war even more...... So, the better the queen mother treats me, the more uncomfortable I feel......"
"If I could get you back, would you like to go back?"
"I ...... Don't want to. ”
"Why?"
"In Liao...... I don't have any friends. Many people get close to me because I am a princess, and people who are not familiar with me are afraid of me, and no one really makes friends with me. ”
"That's normal, after all, you are the royal family of the Liao Kingdom."
Yanshou continued to murmur: "Although you caught me, you didn't abuse me, and treated me like a friend......
Lin Xi asked: "In your heart, if you give you food and chat with you, even if you are your friend?" ”
Yanshou nodded dumbly.
Lin Xi suddenly felt a little sorry for the little girl in front of her, she just chatted with her normally, and she didn't say anything, but she actually regarded herself as a friend.
"You're not a bad person, either." Leaving a word, Lin Xi left.
Yanshou took a bite of the flatbread in his hand and stared blankly outside.
