It was another dusty day, and the delegation went to Baicheng and settled down to rest.
This place is actually more lively and prosperous than they imagined, and asked the store's second, the second said: "Everyone was going to flee, Gouji's 200,000 soldiers are stationed at the border, who is not afraid, but now that General Gu is back, Everyone is at ease.
Mu Zhiming took a sip of the crude tea in the porcelain cup in his hand, thinking of his previous life, Gu Heyan died in the battlefield a few months later, the whole country was so venomous, the world mourned, and every household was burning millet stalks in the brazier, even the snow capital of the capital. It fell without sleep for three whole days.
The way of heaven is not benevolent. One person wants to exchange millions of corpses for corpses. In troubled times, there is no home, but loyalty can shake the sky, and the scars are all just wanting to change the word "everyone is at peace".
Mu Zhiming put down the teacup and looked out the window of the inn, near the frontier of the desert, where the wind and sand were whistling. Can you protect that zealous heart
These uneasy or sad feelings finally turned into a whisper in the ear: Tomorrow, we can meet.
In the evening of the next day, when the moon and stars were thin, the mission finally arrived at the Rongyan Army barracks, where Xu Zhiwei, a military officer, and Xia Houhu, the captain of the school, came to greet them.
Mu Zhiming rolled over and dismounted, and Xiahou Hu rushed over: "Little brother! You are here again! You miss me, brother!"
Seeing that Xiahouhu was about to give Mu Zhiming a warm hug, Xu Zhiwei stepped forward to block Xiahouhu with lightning speed, and saluted, "Mr. Mu, long time no see."
"Long time no see." Mu Zhiming smiled and folded his fists in return. He looked around, but couldn't see the familiar figure, so he couldn't help showing disappointment, "General Gu..."
Xu Zhiwei hurriedly said, "General, he is busy with military affairs, so he can't be far away today, and I hope your lord will forgive me."
Mu Zhiming nodded: "Generals naturally focus on military affairs."
Xu Zhiwei: "The Mu Da people come with me, and I will lead you to the camp where you rest."
Mu Zhiming said gratefully, "Thank you Xu Shenjun."
The delegation rested in the east of the barracks. Although Dajin and Gouji had not yet fought, the barracks had already been prepared for battle. .
While Xu Shen was setting up the carriage, Xiahou Hu approached Mu Zhiming, winked and said, "Little brother, let me ask you a question."
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "Xiahou Colonel, please speak."
"Oh, don't be so unfamiliar, ahem, come on again." Xia Houhu asked curiously, "I heard that our general is engaged, is there really such a thing?"
As soon as Mu Zhiming nodded lightly, Xia Houhu immediately shouted: "My mother! It's true! They told me that I still don't believe it! After that, when I go to the battlefield, I have to drag General Gu Xiao back. Oh, let's talk about it, little brother, do you know which girl is betrothed to our general? Is she a princess with golden branches and jade leaves?"
Mu Zhiming's eyes twitched slightly, and then he asked with a light smile without changing his face, "Why don't you ask General Gu?"
"Oh." Xia Houhu said helplessly, "Don't we dare? The Pioneer General once asked curiously, but General Gu Xiao immediately sank his face and said nothing. We wondered if he was dissatisfied with the marriage. , so I don't dare to mention it at will... I'm really curious about it, so I'm here to ask you!"
Mu Zhiming was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes in frustration: "...Yes... Is he dissatisfied?"
"Little brother, who is the one who married General Gu?" Xia Houhu asked. Mu Zhiming smiled, with a very light smile: "Let's wait until the day General Gu is willing to tell you, and let him tell you in person."
"Yeah." Xia Houhu nodded, "You're right, little brother!"
While talking, he had arrived at the tent where Mu Zhiming lived. Wen Heyin looked around and shouted, "Hey, isn't this where we lived last time? The furnishings haven't changed much!"
"Yeah." Xiahou Hu said, "Since you left the barracks last time, this place has been empty, and no one is allowed to live there anymore, because..."
"Cough!!!" Xu Zhiwei didn't know when he walked into the tent, he coughed suddenly, interrupting Xia Houhu's words, causing a group of people to turn to look at him.
Xu Zhiwei said: "Xiahou Colonel, Mr. Mu is tired of saddling the horse, let's not disturb too much, let them rest quickly."
Xia Houhu: "Yes! You have a good rest, little brother. We will leave first."
Mu Zhiming nodded, salutes Xu Zhiwei and Xiahou Hu goodbye.
The tent is clean and tidy, one can see that it has just been cleaned up, saving Mu Zhiming and Wen Heyin a lot of trouble, Wen Heyin knows that Mu Zhiming now wants to wash his face and hands, put down his luggage and go out to fetch water. Inside was a copper basin filled with hot water.
Mu Zhiming felt strange: "Huh? Where did you get the hot water?"
Wen Heyin put down the copper basin and said, "That cold general is here, waiting outside, wait, what are you doing out, young master? Let that general come in! Eh, slow down!"
