If such a war happens again, Daliang may not have the energy to help.

"Thanks to General Bai in the past two years, otherwise I wouldn't be able to survive this time."

Bidding farewell to the King of Xiliang, the Bai family army finally embarked on the road back to Beijing, and the Songcheng guards also returned to the original city and continued to garrison.

In this battle, our side won a complete victory, and this was also the first time that Bai Shuo led his troops to fight with full authority.

"Daddy." Looking at the blue sky in the distance, Bai Shuo rode on horseback and looked into the distance, "Ah Shuo lives up to expectations, the Bai family army is still the Bai family army of the year." ”

Bai Shuo raised his troops to return to Beijing, and the entire capital was happily greeted, from walking out of the city gate to entering the city gate, this battle took two years.

Many generals in Beijing greeted them at the city gate, and inside the palace, Shen Tianming held a triumphal banquet.

Lu Tianhui and Lu Wan were both present, Su Qingyan did not enter the palace, the lights were bright, singing, dancing and warm wine.

Bai Shuo, who has been in Xiliang for two years, feels the warmth of his hometown for a long time, and he really hasn't drunk the wine of the capital for a long time.

"Uncle White." Lu Wan found a gap and ran to him, and came to toast with a wine glass, "Congratulations to General Bai for his triumphant return to Beijing, I salute you with this glass of wine." ”

Wanwan, who hadn't seen her for two years, grew taller and more beautiful, with a dignified posture and generous words, Bai Shuo smiled with relief and picked up her wine glass to touch it.

Just when the wine cup just touched his lips, Bai Shuo was suddenly stunned and said, "Huh? Do you know how to drink? ”

"Of course."

After a glass of wine, Lu Wan wiped her mouth at him with a smile: "It's just drinking, I've been drinking for a long time, doesn't Uncle Bai know?" ”

Bai Shuo was stunned for two seconds, looking at this girl flattering and playing, and in a trance, he saw a dangling dog tail behind her.

Bai Shuo closed his eyes in embarrassment, drank all the wine in his hand, and said that in the two years he has been in Xiliang, the person he misses the most is Wanwan.

Lu Wan is fifteen this year, she has reached the age of marriage, and the title of the crown princess has been decided, as long as Lin Huan is fifteen years old, she will be able to get married.

Lu Wan sat beside him generously, and the two chatted like old friends.

"Uncle Bai, you're tanned."

"Huh?" Bai Shuomu was stunned and touched his face embarrassedly, "Yes, the west is cool and the sand is big, and the sun is also poisonous. ”

Lu Wanxiao's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and she pointed to her face: "Hehe, I can't tan." ”

Bai Shuo swallowed her saliva, her Adam's apple moved slightly, this girl is telling the truth, after so many years in school, Lu Wan has also been exposed to the wind and sun, without scruples, but the skin is like being able to pinch out water, and the more the sun is getting whiter.

Lu Wan still wanted to giggle with him, Bai Shuo frowned and pushed a few words.

"Okay, let's go back after the toast, don't worry your father."

He looked at the little girl with a frustrated expression on her face, lowered her head and muttered, and left: "Okay." ”

As soon as Lu Wan left, Bai Shuo suddenly felt lonely, and the generals around him kept toasting him, but he didn't have any joy at all, and the picture of Wanwan smiling at him kept replaying in his mind.

It was like a deep root, entangled him throughout the banquet, as soon as he closed his eyes and calmed down, these words haunted him endlessly.

After the banquet, Bai Lingqi invited him to sit in the Fengyi Hall for a while, and seeing his sullen appearance, out of concern, he took the initiative to ask.

"What's wrong with my brother, is there anything bad about today's banquet?"

"No ......" replied as if mechanically, Bai Shuo was absent-minded.

Bai Lingqi raised her eyes and glanced at it, and the next second she called all the palace maids away, she was too familiar with him like this, and she definitely had something on her mind.

"Your Majesty told me that when you return to Beijing, I will give you two or three years of leave, during which you can rest and rest, and if you fancy any girl, just tell him, Your Majesty will marry you."

Bai Shuo chuckled lightly, and replied in a self-deprecating tone: "Thank you Your Majesty and Niangniang for your concern, the matter of marriage, if the girl herself does not agree, what is the point of Your Majesty's pression?" ”

Bai Lingqi felt that she had taken out her brother's words, and asked a little proudly: "So, you already have a favorite candidate?" ”

"Nope." Bai Shuo don't overdo it, it's still these two words.

After chatting a few words, Bai Lingqi shook her head helplessly, when she and her brother did not have a good topic, it has been the same for so many years.

It's really idle that I have nothing to do to leave him to talk about it, and I'm completely asking for my own hardships.

"Your Majesty and I think that you are not too young, even Ah Huanwanwan and they are about to get married when they grow up, and the Bai family is just one of your descendants, if you have no heirs...... The Bai family army will have to be handed over to the side in the future. ”

Bai Shuo retorted: "If you get married early, will your heirs have to be early?" Our parents were born in old age, and not everyone is like you, and they have children after half a year of marriage. ”

Bai Lingqi black line: "Then you have to get married too, I don't believe it, over the years, you haven't liked any other woman except Su Qingyan." ”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Wan's face instantly popped out of Bai Shuo's mind, and when he realized that he was thinking about Wanwan, he was suddenly frightened, clenched his fists, and tried to calm himself down.

"I ...... In my life, except for Su Qingyan, I have never liked any other woman, Niangniang still don't worry about the personal affairs of the ministers, the ministers still have something to do, so I will retire first. ”

If this topic continues to be discussed, for fear that something will happen, Bai Shuo did not dare to continue, and found a gap and slipped out.

After returning to Baifu and going to the ancestral hall to worship his parents, Bai Shuo looked in the mirror for the first time in two years.

"It's ......"

He couldn't believe that in the mirror, the big man with brown brown skin, a bearded face, and blank eyes was himself.

After two years in Xiliang, he smoothed out his pampered nobility in Beijing, and as he grew older, he was no longer young, and Bai Shuo found that he had nothing but the exploits left by his ancestors and his military exploits.

The man in the mirror looked less and less like himself, and he angrily shaved off his beard and exposed his jaw to make himself look younger.

After some operation, it can't hide the fact that he is old.

The empty White Mansion, he returned to the time when he was alone.

The sound of owls chirping in the night sky was heard in his ears, and Bai Shuo was no longer able to find anyone to settle accounts, so he reprimanded them for not taking care of the mansion and letting the owls in.

Shen Tianming had ordered Bai Shuo to take a two-year vacation, and during these two years, he didn't have to go to the court every day like other ministers, nor did he have to go to the school to train soldiers and horses.

led the court to live a chic life, and many generals around him were not envious.

Early one morning, the servant ran to his courtyard and hurriedly reported the news.

"General, the Wanwan County Lord of the Zhang Mansion is here."

Bai Shuo raised his head sharply when he heard this, he had just woken up and was washing with a cloth towel.

He squinted his eyes and asked, "Wanwan is here, is there something wrong with her?" ”

The servant said, "The county lord didn't say anything, it seems that he simply came to play with the general." ”

Bai Shuo hurriedly got dressed: "Did she bring a horse?" ”

"Nope."

"Take her to the main hall first, the tea and pastries are ready, and I'll be there later."

Lu Wan was dressed in a light Luo skirt, standing at the door of the White Mansion boredly, looking at the two stone lions in front of the door.

She stared at the lion's eyes, learning from it, opening her mouth and glaring angrily, looking funny.

After imitating it, I didn't forget to mock two sentences: "This thing looks so ugly, can it be a town?" ”
