Chapter 3 There are guests coming to the door

Vermilion Bird City, winter goes to spring.

It has been more than a year since the Great Xia Dynasty unified the Southern Regions, and the pain left by the war is gradually being erased by time.

In a blink of an eye, Xiao Man'er has passed her seventh birthday and has reached the age of erecting a crown.

It was already time for dinner, and the family of three in the General's Mansion was sitting at the table, and the food on the table was not luxurious but quite sumptuous.

In addition to some wild game that is only available in the border area, Lin Mei brought out the imperial wine that was rarely willing to take out the imperial wine given by the Holy Emperor when she left the imperial city that year.

In front of Xiao Man'er, there is his favorite drink from goat's milk and green juice with a borderland flavor.

"Little glutton, wait a minute, there are still guests who haven't come today. ”

Man'er just wanted to stretch out his chopsticks to clamp the roast sheep in front of him, but was stopped by Lin Mei with a gentle wave of his hand.

"Mother is really, obviously the guest himself is late, and he is not allowed to let his children eat first!"

Pouting dissatisfiedly, he muttered to himself, Xiao Man'er didn't notice that there was an extra figure behind him at some point, and stood quietly looking at the young man in front of him who was quite dissatisfied with his tardiness.

"Then I'm really sorry for you?!"

The voice was magnetic, but with a hint of banter.

"Brother Jiu, sister-in-law, long time no see!"

With this voice, Xiao Man'er turned his head and finally saw the person who came.

The red iron armor wrapped the whole body, and even the head was tightly wrapped by the face armor, and the posture was extremely tall.

Listening to the voice, the person who came should not be very old, only in his early thirties, but looking at the armor style on his body, this person's identity is surprisingly high, and he is actually one of the two overseers under the commander of the Great Xia border army.

"Haha, Old Eleven, you are still so tightly covered in my house, I don't know, I still think that your kid is here to fight me!"

Jiang Yao got up and stepped forward, laughing.

"Brother Jiu laughed!"

took off his armor to reveal his true face, it was the eleventh prince who walked out of the hinterland of the dynasty with Jiang Yao in the past to guard the border pass for Great Xia, Jiang Che.

Bai Zhe's face can be regarded as angular, if it weren't for a narrow scar running through his left eye, coupled with the somewhat hideous iron armor, Jiang Che is more like a scholar who has studied hard in the cold window than the identity of the border army overseer.

"Uncle Eleven is not a guest at all, and my mother doesn't ask people to eat, I'm really angry!"

Xiao Man'er pursed his lips and looked at Jiang Che's rather dissatisfied mouth, and the young man's heart was undoubtedly revealed.

"Hehe, the little guy hasn't seen him for a year, but he's grown a lot taller!"

Jiang Che didn't care about Xiao Man'er's dissatisfaction with him, and stretched out a hand to pinch his nephew's cheek and teased: "You kid be polite to me, in the future, our family will not only be your eleventh uncle, do you want to call the master understand?"

"Brother Jiu, sister-in-law let's eat first!"

"Running all the way back from the barren grassland, you don't know how difficult it is for my brother and me!"

Jiang Che was not polite, Jiang Yaozu and Lin Mei sat down at the table first, picked up the bowl and mercilessly picked up the roast leg of lamb that Xiao Man'er had been staring at for a long time and chewed it.

The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, it's not surprising that the character of their eleventh brother is like this!

"It looks like you received that secret letter too?!"

At this time, the night was getting late, and Xiao Man'er was already coaxed to sleep by Lin Mei.

In the hall, there are only Jiang Yao and Jiang Che at this moment.

In front of the table, Jiang Che's battle helmet was placed at random, and the two brothers fell silent.

"What about the third brother?" As if thinking of something, Jiang Yao raised his head, looked at Jiang Che and said in a deep voice: "Presumably this news should be the first to be known by the third brother, what did he say?"

In the Great Xia Dynasty, the current Holy Emperor had a total of twenty-one heirs, and there were three people who came out of the hinterland of the dynasty in the past to guard the border pass.

In addition to Jiang Yao and Jiang Che at the moment, there is also one who is the real commander of the tens of millions of border troops today, Jiang Ye, the third prince of the Great Xia Dynasty!

The three brothers, one mother and one sibling, were in the same breath when they were in the imperial city, and now they have been stationed at the border for many years and are watching and supporting each other.

"The Lan clan is certainly the great enemy of our clan, but what is the child's crime?" Jiang Che said softly as he stretched out his hand to fill the two wine cups in front of the table.

"The third brother also means this, since the child has been saved by us, he should do his best. ”

"What's more, the bloodline of the Wolf Emperor Lan clan is not weaker than my Jiang clan, this child just happened to be a child daughter-in-law for our little man!" Gently tasting the wine in the wine cup, Jiang Che smiled and said, with a hint of banter.

"Since the third brother nodded over there, your ninth brother is not an ambiguous person. Jiang Yao was silent for a while, lowered his head and looked at the wine cup in front of the table and slowly spoke.

"That kid, where is it now?" Raising his head, Jiang Yao looked at his brother, who had grown up together, and asked in a deep voice.

Although a long time has passed since the battle against the barren grassland, the scenes of the past have been around Jiang Yao's mind from time to time.

The general died in a hundred battles, and since he followed his third brother Jiang Ye out of the hinterland of the dynasty to conquer the border passes, Jiang Yao has experienced too many dangers.

However, the last battle a year ago to establish the hegemony of the Southern Regions for the Jiang clan of Great Xia is still impossible for him to let go.

Jiang Yao is afraid that he will never be able to forget what the contemporary wolf emperor "Lan Xiong", who is known as the peerless pride of the Southern Regions with his father, said to the three brothers when he was on a strange journey.

"There is no mercy on the battlefield, but what is the sin of a child?"

To this day, Jiang Yao believes that what his three brothers did was not wrong.

"Smack!"

As if he had already anticipated his brother's attitude, Jiang Che tilted the corners of his mouth and clapped his palms.

With this clapping sound, a gust of wind blew in front of the hall door.

Instantly, four figures stepped out of the darkness like ghosts.

The four of them were not empty-handed, but in the middle of them stood a small sedan chair of mahogany, wrapped in red cloth on all sides.

This sedan chair is not counting the people in the sedan chair, there are also four or five hundred catties, but it can be carried by these four people into Jiang Yao's mansion where the elite of the flaming iron horses are stationed unconsciously.

In this way, the profound skills of the four can be seen!

"Nether Wolf Guard?"

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yao stared at the four of them, thoughtful.

"I've seen Yao Gongzi!"

The voices were the same, with a hint of cold arrogance, and the four of them said in unison.

Uniform ink-colored armor, carrying a nine-foot-long black scythe under the cloak behind him, his face hidden under the dark blue visor.

This is the Netherwolf Guard, who has only followed the Grassland Wolf Tinglan clan for generations, and the legend says that one person can slaughter a thousand troops.

Now, it is also one of the biggest gifts that Lan Xiong gave to the three Jiang Yao brothers in return at the end of the road!

"Isn't the movement a little too big?" Jiang Yao waved his hand and said in a deep voice as he stared at the sedan chair.

Even if it's in Suzaku City, on your own land.

However, the secret documents from the hinterland of the imperial dynasty, the power held by the so-called siblings in the imperial city, have never lacked the existence of hands and eyes.

"Brother Jiu is too worried, and on the way here, I did encounter a few unsightly flies and mosquitoes, but they are all clean!"

"But looking at the accessories of the sword, it seems that I have seen it in the old eight mansions before. ”

With a sneer, Jiang Che looked at Jiang Yao in front of him and spoke softly, with a hint of chill.
