    Duan Beicen is Xiao Yan¡¯s son. After his father died in the war, Xiao Yan adopted him as his adopted son. He is two years older than Suisui. He is not only her confidant, but also her companion who grew up together.

    They are superiors and subordinates externally, but they are like brothers in private.

    Duan Beicen also had some smiles in his eyes, but he was more worried: "You still want to joke."

    He has always been taciturn, and no matter how deep his worries and concerns are, he will not express them with his mouth. Thousands of words are all contained in this faint complaint.

    Suisui understood that with their many years of friendship, there were many things that did not need to be said.

    The two of them walked side by side towards the forest behind the house.

    The forest is covered with pine needles, which are soft when stepped on, like a layer of velvet blanket. The autumn sunshine shines through the branches and leaves, casting a mottled light and shadow on the two people.

    Birds are chirping in the treetops, water is gurgling in the distance, and the forest is filled with the fragrance of pine needles. It is quiet and quiet, perfect for reminiscing about the past.

    The two of them had little time to reminisce about the past.

    Duan Beicen took off a long and narrow cloth bag from his waist and suddenly threw it towards her: "I brought your knife."

    Suisui raised his hand to catch it tacitly.

    She untied the cloth bag, pulled out the long lacquered sword covered with gold and silver, and caressed the shark leather hilt lovingly, her eyes moving as if she was reminiscing with an old friend.

    With a "clang" sound, the cold blade was pushed out a few inches, the sound was like a dragon's roar, and the cold light illuminated the secluded forest.

    She did not take out the entire blade, but stroked the exposed part of the blade with her fingers, put it back into the sheath, and handed the sword back to Duan Beicen.

    "Won't you stay with me?"

    "It's inconvenient," Suisui still looked at her knife with reluctance in her eyes, "take good care of it for me."

    This tone made Duan Beicen couldn't help but curl his lips.

    "How's the injury?" he asked.

    Suisui moved his left shoulder: "It's not a serious problem, it's just that it's been loose for too long, and my skills are not as good as before."

    Duan Beicen's eyes were full of apologies: "It's all my fault that my subordinates didn't do things well and things went wrong."

    He smiled casually: "Who knew it was such a coincidence that we happened to meet the Divine Wing Army entering the mountain to suppress the bandits? I can't blame you."

    After a pause, he said: "How is the situation in Heshuo?"

    Duan Beicen said: "After the fall, the Xi people and the Khitans invaded the border. Xiao Tong'an has ordered to prepare food and grass. It seems that he is in a hurry to send troops. I think his intention is to take advantage of the unstable situation in the Turks to seize Yingzhou.  return."

    Suisui muttered: "He can't win this battle."

    Duan Beicen's eyes moved slightly, nodded and admitted: "He doesn't have the ability."

    "Besides, we can't defend it even if we defeat it," Sui Sui said, "We can't allocate so many troops to garrison. The sons of the old Turkic Khan are fighting fiercely for the throne. At this time, we can wait for work and sit on the mountain to watch the tigers fight.  , just wait and see who shows signs of decline and help them secretly. As long as the Turks have no time to take care of themselves, Xi and the Khitan have nothing to fear."

    Duan Beicen said: "Xiao Tong'an may not know that although he took over the army, the court's attitude is ambiguous, and it has not officially issued a decree yet. The morale of the army is unstable.  Win a great victory as soon as possible to convince the public.¡±

    What¡¯s more, the lack of eyesight on the battlefield is a good opportunity to eliminate dissidents and cleanse the generals.

    Suisui chuckled: "My uncle is not good at leading troops, but he is quite good at thinking."

    After a pause, he looked at Duan Beicen: "What do you think?"

    Duan Beicen hesitated for a moment: "Xiao Tong'an insists on sending troops, but he is just seeking quick destruction. When the two of them bite each other, both sides will be hurt, and we can reap the benefits."

    He took a deep look at Suisui and said, "You can come back early."

    Suisui frowned slightly, then smiled: "I will go back sooner or later, and there is no need to pave the way with the blood of soldiers. I know you are worried that people will leave before the tea is cool. If you delay, I may never be able to go back."

    After a pause, he said: "But if I had gone back a few days earlier and left the soldiers to die, would I still be worthy of their following?"

    Duan Beicen lowered his head. She was right. The biggest difference between her and Xiao Tongan's people was not that she used soldiers like a god, but that she would never sacrifice human life for her own selfish interests.

    She never fights unnecessary battles or spills unnecessary blood. Only when Duan Beicen was in the army did he know how difficult it is for a general to do this.

    He knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists and saluted: "I am ashamed of myself."

    Sui Sui hurriedly helped him up: "You are thinking about me, how could I blame you? Xiao Tongan is very confident nowNo one can dissuade you from certain things.

    He was silent for a while and then said: "If King Qi is involved in the matter of the late prince"

    The King of Qi has a brother above him, and he cannot be crowned prince. Besides, four years ago, he had no foundation among civil servants and generals, and was not taken seriously by the emperor. It is said that he has no motive, but everything is possible.  one.

    Suisui did not hesitate at all and said calmly: "Then I will kill him with my own hands."

    Duan Beicen knew from the look on her face that she was telling the truth. He was speechless for a moment, and then said after a while: "Be more careful and send me a message if you have anything."

    "good."

    "I'm leaving Beijing on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Is there anything you want me to do?" Duan Beicen said when it was time to say goodbye.

    Sui shook his head, and then his eyes moved: "By the way, you can help me find a kind of repellent medicine from the Western Regions."

    That is the secret medicine of the Western Regions. A pill the size of a red bean can be placed in the belly button to ensure that it is foolproof. She cannot be completely reassured by Qi Wangfu's Bizi Tang, so she can sit back and relax with an extra layer of protection.

    "This matter does not have to be done by Duan Beicen. She deliberately brought it up, just to cut through the knot with a sharp knife and cut off all his possible emotions.

    Duan Beicen¡¯s eyes were complicated, and he hesitated for a long time before he nodded: ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll send someone to the powder shop, and you can pick it up in twenty days.¡± (Remember this website¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com
