"Why is Yuanliang here?"
In a flash, Xun Zhen returned to normal.
"Of course it's something important." The wind was a bit strong at the entrance of the government office, and Qi Shan was blown to the point of coughing. While coughing, he said, "A while ago, Qian Shuhe, a member of Zhang Yongqing's army, led his troops to harass Nanyu County. It took several fierce battles to repel them..."
Xun Ding's clear eyes revealed a stupidity that even Xun Zhen was annoyed by. He said, "Father, this is not the place to talk. I see that Mr. Qi is weak and looks like he has not recovered from a serious injury. If you have anything to say, let's go to the meeting hall of the government office first."
Xun Zhen didn't say anything, but looked at his son with an unfriendly look. Small animals are sensitive to this kind of aura, and Xun Ding is no exception. He felt puzzled in his heart - his recent performance can be described as a well-behaved and obedient filial son, why is his father unhappy
Three people entered the government office one after another.
Qi Shan was coughing violently, and Xun Ding kept turning his head to look at him, fearing that this frail scholar would choke from coughing.
Xun Zhen saw how worthless he looked, and his nameless anger grew stronger, and he was even more eager to kill Qi Yuanliang. When they reached the meeting room, Xun Zhen and the other man sat down. Xun Ding thought he was being very tactful, so he stood up and took the initiative to boil water and make tea.
The old father took the lead.
He said meaningfully: "Yong'an and Yuanliang know each other?"
Xun Ding enthusiastically talked about the scene of their first meeting.
It was a sunny day. Xun Ding had just robbed a group of evil tycoons and returned with a full load. He led a group of lackeys to drink tea at a remote post station. Not long after, a thin and weak young scholar came to the post station.
Speaking of this—
Xun Ding asked with concern: "Mr. Qi, do you have any deficiency? Why do you look like you have blood deficiency and qi deficiency both times I saw you?"
Qishan: “…No, I was just injured.”
When he met Xun Ding at the post station, the backlash from the Way of the Scholar had not yet passed, and the burden had almost reached the limit of his body's endurance. Xun Ding saw that he looked sick. This time was similar, but the Way of the Scholar helped his lord Chen Tang to bear the injury. Judging from the severity of the injury, the lord must have met a strong enemy. Qi Shan came over to inquire and found out that he was fighting with Gong Xichou.
The lord's physique has returned to full vitality in just a few days.
Qishan actually raised it for a while.
Hearing that it was not a congenital deficiency, Xun Ding continued to talk. The young scholar was naturally Qi Shan, who was preparing to stay at a remote post station. All the tables in the post station were occupied by Xun Ding's lackeys. Xun Ding saw that Qi Shan was a gentle man and would not like to share a table with those lackeys who were always talking about their ancestors, so he took the initiative to invite Qi Shan to sit at the same table with him, and they started chatting.
The two had a very pleasant conversation.
It’s a pity that the time is too short, otherwise we could have continued chatting.
Xun Ding always regretted not asking the other party's name, but he didn't expect that after twists and turns, the other party was a colleague of his father. What a fate!
He was still expressing his joy of meeting an old friend in a foreign land, but he didn't notice the changes in his father's and his "old friend's" expressions. The former couldn't hide his stabbing look. After a long time, Xun Ding, who had been talking non-stop, finally stopped and found the atmosphere strange.
Bang!
Xun Zhen didn't know when he took off his sword.
With a slap, it hit the table.
"Father?"
Xun Ding was startled and turned to look at Qi Shan again.
"Mr. Qi?"
Aren't these two colleagues
Why does it look like they are going to fight
Could it be—
They have different political views, so they are actually political enemies
Xun Ding's mind flashed with countless scenes of the two men fighting with swords. He was in a dilemma when he heard Xun Zhen say in a sinister voice, "Yong'an, do you remember that before you ran away from home, you saved a girl named Tan?"
The smile on Haodaer's face gradually faded.
"Of course I remember."
That was a life he had to bear when he was young.
At that time, he only felt that his father was tyrannical, disregarding human life and killing innocent people in order to restrain him. Now he thought that the biggest responsibility should be on him. She was just an ordinary girl. If it weren't for her own involvement and incompetence, she shouldn't have suffered such a disaster.
The son has to pay for his father's debts, the fault is his.
Seeing Xun Ding's mood visibly depressed, Qi Shan was speechless, and even the look in his eyes when he looked at Xun Zhen was a little subtle. How did he raise his son? Xun Ding had been away from home for so many years, and it was time for him to be beaten by society.
Haven't you come to your senses yet
Xun Zhen sneered, "You say it, or do I say it?"
Xun Ding was puzzled: "What did my son say?"
Xun Zhen: “I didn’t talk to you!”
Why should children interrupt when adults are talking
Qishan: “…”
Facing Xun Zhen's threatening look and Xun Ding's confused gaze, he knew that there was no way he could get away unscathed today.
Qishan: "Yongan, do you know my last name?"
Xun Ding was puzzled: "Isn't Mr. Qi's last name Qi?"
The other party introduced himself not long ago.
"That's now. My last name was Tan."
Xun Ding was stunned when he heard this familiar surname. Considering the strange atmosphere between his old father and Mr. Qi, he seemed to know the truth: "Could it be that Mr. Qi is Miss Tan's brother?" Is he seeking revenge for the death of his sister
Xun Ding immediately said, "Everyone has his own responsibility for his own actions. This matter has nothing to do with my father. Mr. Qi can come to me to seek revenge."
Qishan: “…”
Xun Zhen sighed softly and held his forehead with his hand as if suffering from a headache.
"Xun Ding, what's wrong with you? The Miss Tan you mentioned is this Qi Yuanliang. He used the magic words to escape back then, but you are the only one who was stupid enough to post a letter!" The old father finally exploded, slapped the table with his hand, and spoke passionately into the microphone.
Boom—
Boom—
Xun Ding seemed to be numbed by lightning.
He could understand every word his father said, so why couldn't he understand them together? What did he mean by Ms. Tan was Mr. Qi? These two were a man and a woman, and even if he was very poor-sighted, he couldn't tell the difference between the two. Xun Ding's mind was in a mess, and he turned around to look at Qi Shan for confirmation.
Qishan also knew that he couldn't keep it secret any longer.
He covered his face with one hand and nodded.
"That incident was part of the plot. It was really due to my position. I didn't intend to deceive Young Master Xun."
Xun·Pi Jiao Le·Ding: "... I don't believe it!"
Qi Shan had no choice but to use his literati skills under Xun Zhen's threatening gaze. The dark blue literary energy wrapped around him from head to toe, and after a few breaths, the literary energy dissipated, revealing a pretty young girl.
The young girl opened her lips and said, "Young Master Xun."
Xun Ding: “…”
At this moment, in this situation, the image of his deceased confidant sister Bai Yueguang in his heart completely shattered.
Xun Ding...
He ran away!!!
He almost bumped into Shen Tang who was coming back.
Chen Tang dodged and only had time to see a familiar figure. He complained, "Is it a supermarket sale? Are you running so fast?"
Turning around, he saw Qi Shan and Xun Zhen rushing over.
"When did Yuanliang come? Why do you look like this?"
Chen Tang almost didn't recognize that this gentle and clean girl was Qi Shan. Is this guy addicted to cross-dressing
Qi Shan removed his disguise and said, "Greetings, my lord."
Xun Zhen also bowed: "He solved an old case."
Chen Tang didn't know what "old cases" meant, so he thought it was a file in the government office and asked casually, "Is it solved?"
Xun Zhen was as happy as a spring breeze: "It's solved. The victim was too shocked. It will take some time for him to return to normal."
Chen Tang did not doubt him. He noticed Qi Shan's expression at the first time and said distressedly: "Don't run around if your injury is not healed. Resting more is more important than anything else. Can you send someone else over?"
Qi Shan: "I will feel relieved when I see the lord with my own eyes."
Chen Tang knew that Qi Shan had a stubborn temper, so he said no more: "Qian Shuhe led his troops to attack Longwu County. What were our losses?"
"Qian Yong was badly defeated. Nanyu County only lost a few city gates, while our own casualties exceeded a thousand. As for the military generals, Wen Shi was seriously injured but his life was not in danger. Doctor Dong is taking care of him personally." Xu Quan was also unlucky as he happened to run into General Qian Yong who was the most angry.
He was only eighteen years old, and even though he had talent, he was beaten.
Although praying for goodness is described lightly, there are many difficulties and dangers involved.
As for the scribes
He is the only wounded soldier.
During the battle to defend the city, he was suddenly covered in blood and almost fell off the city wall. Fortunately, Nanyu County was defended. Qian Yong led his troops away, cursing. First, the night attack suffered a loss, the food and grass were burned, and the logistics could not keep up. Then, the siege lasted for two days but failed to take the city. The soldiers on the city wall kept singing the names of dishes, which shook the morale of Qian Yong's troops. The hatred between the two families was completely established.
Chen Tang was completely relieved after hearing this.
With the extraordinary recovery ability of a martial artist, a seriously injured warrior can be alive and kicking after lying down for ten days or half a month at most. If Xu Quan died, it would be hard to explain to Xu Jie. She smiled and said, "When Wen Shi gets better, I will give him a great gift that he has always dreamed of."
What gift
Of course it’s the idol gift package.
Xu Quan is a die-hard fan of Gong Xichou.
Similarly—
Qishan is also Xun Ding’s “white moonlight”.
The so-called "white moonlight" will not easily turn into white rice grains. After a brainstorm, Xun Ding found that there was no need to escape like this. The life mentor "Ms. Tan" who encouraged him to pursue the vast world is still alive, and Mr. Qi, who had a good chat with him, is also alive. He has also unloaded the psychological burden of his youth. Isn't this double happiness
That night, Qi Shan stayed in the guesthouse of the government office. Just as he was about to turn off the lights and go to sleep, a figure outside the window pushed the window open with a snap and said excitedly: "Mr. Qi, since you and I are so destined to be together, why don't we become sworn brothers under the moonlight!"
Qishan: “…???”
It was impossible to become sworn brothers, and it would never be possible. Xun Ding not only did not gain a sworn brother, but instead faced his father's righteous iron fist. If Chen Tang had not been bothered by the noise, Xun Ding, the troublesome eldest son, would have cried for half the night.
With Qishan's arrival, the construction of Xiaocheng is on the right track.
Chen Tang must hurry up and deal with everything before the spring war, so as to avoid fighting in the front and fire in the back. Although Sibao County has experienced several wars, it has also ushered in a relatively stable development period under Qiu Cheng. The situation is much better than the impoverished Heyin County and the devastated Longwu County. As for Minfeng County, the specific information is still incomplete.
During this period, he received "ransom money" in installments.
The most unexpected one came from the Qiu family.
Looking at the boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, Chen Tang was surprised and almost thought he was hallucinating. "You said this was sent by the Qiu family? To redeem the family of the perverted old rookie? Didn't he say that he offended the clan leader to death? This Qiu Dalang is really generous."
