Chapter 223 Sand Dune Change 5
In the night, a ride came slowly. The man was dressed in military uniform and wearing the standard armor of General Zhao. The man raised his head and said calmly, "It's me. Open the gate quickly."
The leader of the Yulin on the tower stared at the firelight and suddenly saw that it was the master. He hurriedly took his men down the tower and bowed his knees and said, "See the master. I don't know that the master's arrival of etiquette, and I hope you can forgive me."
Zhao Yong waved his hand and said calmly, "It doesn't matter, just open the gate."
"No."
Several Yulins put down the hanging door and dodged on both sides.
When the leader of Yulin saw that the master's father was single out of the palace, he couldn't help but be a little worried and couldn't help saying, "Master, if it's deep tonight, I'm afraid that you are alone outside. Why don't you take someone to accompany him?"
Zhao Yong smiled and turned around, "What, do you doubt my skills? I'm always old, but I'm still very good at it.
Na Yulin was shocked and hurriedly knelt down and explained, "The master misunderstood. The humble position is just worried about the safety of the master, and there is no other meaning. Lord, you are still brave. How can you have the word 'old'?
Zhao Yong laughed and raised his whip and said, "It's good to know. There is no need to talk about this matter. I'm just depressed. I want to go out of the palace alone for a break, and I don't need to disturb others."
"No!"
The moon is in the sky, the night is like water, and the silver moonlight is sprinkled on the ground. There are sad calls of crickets everywhere, and the fragrance of the night permeates the air.
The starry flat field is wide, and the lights dyed in the sky can be faintly seen in the distance, but far away at the end of the ethereal sky, like a dream. It is in sharp contrast to the deserted graves in the field.
One person, one horse. Zhao Yong sat in front of the grave and drank wine quietly. His face was like water. He just thought about things and blended into the quiet night.
But soon, the tranquility of the night was broken by the rapid sound of horses' hoofs. Zhao Yong frowned, showed a trace of displeasure on his face, and subconsciously grabbed the sword on the ground. When he saw the person's costume clearly, he put down his sword and said without joy or anger, "Why are you here?"
Zhao Xin grabbed the rein of the horse. Without waiting for the horse to stop, he quickly turned over and got off the horse. He forced the owner of the horse with the power of his wrist. At the same time, he had bent his knees and half knelt down and saluted; "The last general, see the master."
Dozens of horses behind him also got off their horses and saluted; "See the master."
Zhao Yong just frowned and looked at Zhao Xin without saying anything. He couldn't see the joy or anger. When Zhao Xin saw his master's look like this, he couldn't help but thump and thought that something big was wrong. He received a report from his men that his father had left the city in the middle of the night and his whereabouts were unknown. He was suddenly very nervous. He hurriedly ordered dozens of horses out of the city to look for his father. He thought that according to his father's temperament, he would definitely come to the grave of the queen to mourn, so he found this out.
Seeing that the master's father was angry, Zhao Xin knelt down and honestly pleaded guilty; "The last general disobeyed the king's order and disturbed the master's quietness. The crime is unforgivable. I hope the master's father will punish him."
Zhao Yong raised his bag and took a sip of wine and said, "You are a good subordinate of the teaching, and you even dare to disobey my orders." The meaning is that Yulin, who guarded the gate, still did not obey his order and told Zhao Xin his whereabouts.
When Zhao Xin saw that the master's father's expression was not angry, he was relieved and slightly relieved. Seeing that the master seemed to punish the Yulin, he hurriedly pleaded: "Master, he was just worried that it would be dangerous for you to go out of the city alone late at night, so he came to report to the last general after thinking about it. . It is because I think that my punishment is small, and the safety of the master's father is great. His loyalty is discernible, and he is not selfish. I hope the master's father will not blame him. If you want to blame him, just end up being alone.
The father, who is used to Zhao Xin's hippie smiling face, rarely sees such a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance on his face, and he can't help saying with some laughter in his heart; "It seems that you are very responsible. No wonder Yulin has let you command for less than half a year, and he doesn't even obey my orders."
Zhao Xin saw that the Lord's father's expression was not like blame, so he completely put it down in his heart and said with a smile, "Naturally, if the Lord does not cherish his subordinates, he will only shirk but not have the courage to bear it. How can these two subordinates work for you?"
Zhao Yong said, "At a young age, you have said the essence of the way to control soldiers as a general in a few words, which is not simple."
Zhao confidence thought: That's right, this is not what my master taught well. In his mouth, he flattered and smiled, "This is not all taught by the Lord. The last general has been following you for almost a year, and he has been studying hard."
Zhao Yong stared at him and said, "I didn't teach you to be so slippery."
"Such a masterless master."
Zhao Yong stared at him again, but there was a smile on his face, so he didn't say more.
Zhao Xin saw that the master was drinking alone in front of the former queen's tomb. It seemed that he didn't want others to disturb Qingjing, so he said with interest, "Lord, don't worry, I will take my brothers everywhere. If I am far away, I will never disturb your quiet."
After saying that, the master's father didn't say anything, so he stood up and carefully retreated, turned around and whispered orders to his subordinates. The Yulin responded in a low voice, went on horse one after another, and scattered around to be on guard. Zhao Xin also wanted to get on the horse and leave, but he heard the master behind him say, "It's all here, just drink with me."
Zhao Xin answered, tied the horse aside, and carefully came to the master's side. He knows that seeing things and thinking about people, the master must be in a bad mood now, or it's better to be careful.
Zhao Yong looked up at him and said, "Sit down. Do you want to stand and drink with me?"
Zhao Xin smiled and sat down as ordered. He saw his father throw a bag of wine and quickly reached out to catch it.
"It's only one person's drink, not too much. You should save some drinks."
"Yes." Zhao Xin unscrewed the wine bag and took a big sip. Suddenly, a stream of heat rushed to his throat, and his pores were open all over his body. His originally stiff body was much more comfortable.
At this time, it is still mid-March, and there is still a strong chill in the wind at night, especially in this deserted place in the wild, it is most appropriate to warm up with strong wine.
When Zhao Xin saw that his father's clothes were still worn in the daytime, he was slightly thin in the night wind. He hesitated for a while and then said, "Master, your body has just recovered, and you should rest. Now there is a heavy chill in the wild. If you drink strong wine, I'm afraid it will be bad for your health."
Zhao Yong frowned and said, "You can't drink and indulge. It's very interesting to live. I know my body. You don't have to be like a mother-in-law.
Zhao Xin suddenly stopped talking and knew that his father did not like others to interfere with him, so he kept silent and just drank.
The two were silent for a while, and Zhao Yong asked again, "Have you heard from your father recently? Is everything okay?"
Zhao Xin nodded and said, "My mother has received a letter from my father, and everything is going well. If nothing happens, she will return to Handan next month. This time, thanks to the help of General Han Sheng, he greeted the generals in advance, and it was much more convenient for my father to recruit food and fodder.
Zhao Yong nodded and said, "Han Sheng is an enthusiastic person. He has been with me for more than 20 years. He has begged for other people's affairs. He is very popular in the State of Zhao. If you have the opportunity to learn more about how to deal with the world, you will definitely benefit a lot."
Zhao Xin bowed his head and said, "No."
Zhao Yong also praised: "Speaking of your father, he is a rare talent of the world. After more than a year of his internal history, the income of the treasury has greatly increased, and the expenditure has also decreased a lot. It seems that Feiyi recommended your father to me at the beginning, and he was really insightful.
Zhao Xin smiled and said, "What the master said is that his father has been suffering since he was a child, determined to study hard, and is even more dedicated to the study of these classics. I dare not say anything else. In terms of this trivial matter, no one in the State of Zhao can surpass his father.
Zhao Yong nodded and said, "It's true, and what I value most is that your father is not a person with a strong desire for power. He is also simple and low-key, which is much better than your uncle Li Dui. This is very suitable for my temper. He is worthy of being a member of the Zhao family. It's just a pity..."
Zhao Yong said here and sighed, so he didn't say more. Zhao Xin naturally knew the meaning of the master's sigh, which was nothing more than that although the master appreciated his father very much, he could not be used for him. Instead, it was one of the cores of the royal party, and the master's heart would have some regrets.
I just don't understand why the master suddenly told himself about his father!
