Du Heng sneered and said: "Long live Lord, while asking Prince Huai to negotiate peace with the two countries, he also asked Prince Hui to prepare for war. The subordinates thought that Lord Long live had changed his personality, but he still acted like a strong man and a strong man. This is superficial."
"It's not entirely his fault, he was also frightened by the beating," Lu Zhishan took a sip of tea and said slowly, "What kind of situation Dali is in now and what situation the court is in, he, the emperor of the Nine-Five-Year Plan, knows best. So even though he was indignant, he still didn't dare to fight. Over the years, Dali's national economy and people's livelihood had been improving, but the military and border defense were still lagging behind. He knew that if this battle continued, not only Dali would be killed, but also the deer. "
"This is why my subordinates have always looked down upon the imperial court. They just surrendered and surrendered, but they actually responded to the requests of Tibet and Siam and sent General Zhao away. The defense in southern Xinjiang was even worse. Over the years, it turned out that It’s like not remembering the defeat of Hue,” Du Heng gritted his teeth, “Shouldn’t we be aware of our shame and forge ahead, and be prepared to be prepared?”
Lu Zhishan did not answer, but gently stroked the tea cup, looking at the rising tea mist. He was lost in thought for a long time, and then asked after a while: "Is it time for Xie Lun to leave?"
"I guess it's only been the past two days," Du Heng said, adding with a smile, "Xie Lun has suffered in the barren land of Kulun for so many years, and now he can finally go to southern Xinjiang to show off his skills. He must be happy. Is it broken?”
Lu Zhishan also smiled: "Yes, that guy must be very happy."

Jiasheng 27th October 16th
General Cullen's Mansion.
Sherron was not happy at all. Not only was he unhappy, he was also extremely sad.
Zhao Jingting did not go to the camp today and stayed with Xie Lun in the general's mansion. After dinner, the two of them did not stay in the house anymore and went for a walk outside to eat.
Kulun is located in northern Xinjiang. It is already freezing in October and a half. It started to snow early this morning. It was just light snow in the early morning. By noon, it had turned into heavy snow. At this time, the snow was lighter again, and it was as far as the eye could see. Looking out, everything was covered in silver. Neither of them held an umbrella, walking side by side in this magnificent and peaceful northern scenery.
"When I first went to southern Xinjiang, I really couldn't stand the climate there. It was hot, humid, and stuffy. I fell ill as soon as I got there. It took me two months of decoction to feel better." Xie Lun said softly, while curling his lips, "At that time, the general was worried about me. He thought of sending me back to the capital, but I was seriously ill and couldn't move, so I couldn't do it. Haha, there really wasn't anything at that time. I thought that I would be able to stay in southern Xinjiang for twelve years."
"I have never liked southern Xinjiang. It has the same temperature and weather all year round. There is no boundary between spring, summer, autumn and winter, and there is no hope. It is not like in the capital, where we work in spring, enjoy the heat in summer, harvest in autumn, and reunite in winter. What season? They all have different lives and expectations," Xie Lun sighed softly, "At that time, I really missed the capital."
"It's just that when I returned to the capital, I started to think about Southern Xinjiang again. In fact, Southern Xinjiang is also very good. There are so many brothers, such good spicy sausages and grain wine, and such a vast world. There is no need to go everywhere. If you are careful, you don't have to worry about the general every day." Xie Lun smiled and shook his head, "It shows that people are always so greedy and difficult to make choices."
Zhao Jingting looked at Xie Lun's side face. In the silvery sky, the young man's originally fair face looked even whiter, even a little transparent. He couldn't help but reach out and caress the young man's face.
Xie Lun did not hide away. Instead, he turned his head to look at Zhao Jingting and smiled at Zhao Jingting: "What? You can't bear to leave me?"
