Chapter 2: Wine and Fire

Chapter 2 The aroma of wine and warmth

As soon as he saw Xiaosi, Ling Xiaoxiao immediately rushed over and shouted: "Brother Xiaosi, you are finally back! You worried me to death!"

Qing Ge stared at Xiao Si silently, unable to restrain his joy. Lu Qinglin and Zhang Cheng saw the two girls caring so much for Xiao Si, and laughed without saying a word. But the foolish monk shouted without restraint: "The two girls are so concerned about me."

My good nephew is really good, not bad, not bad."

Qing Ge's cheeks turned red immediately after hearing this, lowered his head and quickly entered the camp. Ling Xiaoxiao, however, didn't care, and said to the stupid monk with a smile: "What's wrong with me caring about brother Xiaosi? Are you jealous?"

The crazy monk said with fear: "This little girl is talking nonsense, how can I be jealous of my good nephew? Once you care about him, just make him his wife!"

Xiaosi glared and shouted: "Crazy monk, what nonsense are you talking about? Shut up!"

Ling Xiaoxiao also blushed, but still smiled brightly and said, "Whose wife do you want me to be? You have to take care of me!" She jumped away and ran away.

Lu Qinglin and Zhang Cheng laughed loudly, while Xiaosi looked a little embarrassed and hurried into the camp.

It wasn't long before it was time to turn on the lanterns. The lights in the entire camp were bright and people were buzzing. They had just eradicated the rebels and captured Yelv Xiyin alive. It was a great victory. Yelv Xian of Jingzong was extremely happy and his illness seemed to be better.

Overjoyed, Xiao Chuo ordered a grand celebration banquet to be held in front of the Chinese military tent. More than 10,000 people sat in groups. The whole camp was dark and boundless, with laughter and joy everywhere, lights shining into the sky, and the aroma of wine and meat.

Yelu Xian ate a few pieces of cheese and preserved fruit, and felt a little stuffy in his chest, so he put down his chopsticks. Thinking about the events of the past two days, he was still frightened, and quietly asked Xiao Chuo: "Tonight we are having a drink together, what about Yelu Xian?"

Xiyinshang still has thousands of men in Zuzhou, will they come to rob our camp tonight like they did last time?"

Xiao Chuo smiled and said: "Your Majesty, please relax. In today's battle in the Valley of the Kings, we annihilated more than 6,000 people in one fell swoop, surrendered a thousand people, and escaped only about a hundred people. They had already lost their courage and shrunk to the ground.

Go to Zuzhou. Besides, Yelu Xiyin is still in our hands. Even if they put all their efforts into action, they will not ignore Yelu Xiyin's life."

Yelu Xian took a deep breath and no longer had any worries. But Xiao Chuo couldn't help but feel worried and frowned. Yelu Xiyin suffered a big change and went crazy. Although he was no longer a threat, there were still eight thousand people in Zuzhou.

Too many soldiers will be a disaster sooner or later. Then I thought of the crazy words Yelv Xiyin yelled in the valley, "Longzhong, what is Longzhong?" Why did he shout the word "Chai" to Handerang? What does that mean? He couldn't help but raise his head and look at the banquet.

Looking around, I saw a crowd of people below. I searched around, but Han Derang was nowhere to be seen. I was suddenly startled and hurriedly called Manjushri to come over and asked, "Where is Yelu Xiyin? Where is he being imprisoned?"

Manjusri slave said: "We have put him under house arrest in the back camp and sent people to bring him food and drink, but he doesn't feel hungry at all. He cries and laughs sometimes, and says some inexplicable words."

Xiao Chuo asked: "What did he say?"

Manjusri Nu hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "It seems to be talking about Dragon Tomb, Feitian..."

Xiao Chuoqi asked: "My dear, why are you so hesitant?"

Manjusri just didn't answer, lowered his head and said nothing.

Xiao Chuo didn't ask any more questions, and immediately said: "Have you seen Mr. Xiao Han?"

Manjushri immediately said: "He drank a few glasses of wine during the banquet. He just stood up and left. He disappeared without a trace."

Xiao Chuo was suddenly startled and immediately called Qing Ge: "Go and see Yelu Xiyin!"

Seeing the change in her expression, Qing Ge hurriedly picked up her skirt and trotted straight to the back camp. After a while, she hurriedly returned and came to Xiao Chuo's side and whispered: "Go back to the queen, then Yelu Xi is hiding..."

···”

Xiao Chuo's face darkened: "What's wrong with him?"

Qing Ge had no choice but to tell the truth: "When I entered the tent, I saw that Yelu Xiyin was already dead, with a white silk ribbon wrapped around his neck. I asked the guarding soldiers and they said..."

Xiao Chuo said anxiously: "Speak quickly! What did the soldiers say?"

Qing Ge said again: "The guarding soldiers said that only Mr. Xiao Han had been here before." At the end of the sentence, his voice was so low that only he could hear it.

But Xiao Chuo still heard it clearly, closed his eyes, took a breath, and said sadly: "I understand, you can go down."

Qing Ge saluted and slowly retreated. Xiao Chuo sat in the chair, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, thinking to himself: De Rang, how many things have you hidden from me? I love you so much.

Hai, my heart has been completely given to you, but you are doing it secretly. What are you trying to hide? Will you really betray me? Thinking of this, my heart suddenly became cold, and then I thought of the previous few days.

The encounter between Ri and Xiaosi in Cave ### in the Temple of the First Ancestor, the man in black used fireballs to hurt him repeatedly. Who was he? Why did he want to kill him? And on New Year's Eve, in Han Derang's room at Yinlong Villa

, he was tapped on his acupuncture points, and then he caught Xiaosi to despise him, and then invited everyone to bump into him on purpose. Who was that person? What did he want to do? His heart suddenly became confused, and he didn't know what was still lurking around him.

There were so many undercurrents of crisis. He closed his eyes and let out a sigh, feeling a little lonely and desolate.

Manjusri Nu looked at Xiao Chuo doubtfully, pulled her sleeve and said: "Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Yelvxian also turned around and called Xiao Chuo softly: "Yanyan!"

Xiao Chuo stirred up, woke up from his deep thoughts, and smiled nonchalantly: "Oh, slave Manjusri, come and have a glass of wine with your father."

Manjusri Nu smiled, looking a little weird: "Mother, Father, take a look at this thing." After saying that, he pulled out a cloth bag from his belt, took out something from it and put it on the table, looking at himself with a proud smile.

's parents.

When they saw this object, both Yelvxian and Xiao Chuo were stunned. Xiao Chuo picked up the object and looked at it carefully in his hands, and said: "Where did you find this piece of jade? There are five plates with carved buttons on the back, and dragons on it.

Yu Feifeng is extraordinary and shows his imperial demeanor! It is simply priceless!"

Yelvxian's eyes flashed with strange light, and he said to Xiao Chuo with trembling fingers: "Yanyan, this is not an ordinary jade! If I guess correctly, this thing is the jade seal inherited from generation to generation by the Central Plains Dynasty!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the camp. Everyone stared at Xiao Chuo's hand with wide eyes. Xiao Chuo said in surprise: "The national jade seal? That is the symbol of the nine-five supreme emperors of all dynasties! My child, you have never

Where did you get it?”

Manjushri said: "Brother Xiaosi gave it to me!"

Xiao Chuo asked: "It's Xiaosi again? How did he get it?"

Manjusri then told him in detail what happened in the valley, but ignored what Yelv Xiyin said to him in the cave. Because it involved Xiao Si, he did not want to say more for fear of causing trouble to his brother.

.

Yelvxian listened quietly, his chest rising and falling. Although he could not be present at the scene in person, he could feel the urgency and danger of the situation from Manjusri Nu's narration. He patted the table and said: "Xiaosi, I

I want to reward him! Yanyan, what do you think?"

Xiao Chuo naturally had no objection at all, and smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, that's what I meant." She turned her head and looked at Manjusri in confusion, and saw his eyes flickering, obviously there were some things that he didn't tell everything. She said to herself

My son knew very well and knew that he was simple by nature and would not lie, but why would he hide something from himself? He smiled bitterly, raised his voice and said, "Xiaosi, come here!"

Xiaosi was sitting with the crazy monk, Zhang Cheng, Lu Qinglin, and Ling Xiaoxiao at this time, and put Bai Yuhuan on his knees. Bai Yuhuan was also very interested in the food and wine on the table, stretching out his little nose and sniffing.

But Wei Wei was full of hatred for Zhang Cheng. When Zhang Cheng looked at her, his hair stood up immediately and he rushed towards him to bite him. Xiao Si hurriedly held it down, rubbed it on its head, and tried its best to comfort it.

After letting it calm down, he threw another lamb leg to it. Bai Yuhuan lowered his head and began to eat slowly, but still glanced at Zhang Cheng from time to time.

Seeing that the little thing was stable, Xiaosi's appetite was greatly increased. He ate and drank a lot. The Chidai monk next to him was no less good than him. The two of them were so busy that they ate up all the meat on the table in an instant. The Chidai monk was busy.

He called a slave from the Xi clan to come over and continued to add wine and food. Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't help but smile while looking at the two of them eating each other, and said: "Slanderous!"

The crazy monk ignored him, and Xiao Si puffed out his cheeks and said, "I haven't eaten anything since last night, but I'm starving to death!"

Lu Qinglin said: "Xiao Si, now your ability has greatly increased, in less than a month, I don't even dare to recognize you!"

Xiaosi scratched his head and suddenly said: "Brother Lu, I ate a nine-leaf lotus flower. Do you know what it is?"

Lu Qinglin was startled and said: "What lotus?"

Xiaosi recounted the cause and effect, and then said: "After I ate the nine-leaf lotus, not only did I get rid of the poison in my body, but I became as light as a swallow and extremely strong. I don't know how.

Thing. Do you know what that is?"

At this time, the crazy monk suddenly interrupted: "That is my credit!"

Xiaosi scolded: "You eat meat, don't talk!"

Lu Qinglin said blankly: "I don't know either."

Xiaosi was slightly disappointed and looked at Zhang Cheng again. Zhang Cheng, however, just drank and wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Don't look at me. I don't know what it is. You'd better ask your uncle!"

The crazy monk chuckled and patted Zhang Cheng on the shoulder approvingly: "Xiao Zhang is very good at talking. I will teach you two more moves when I have time in the future!"

At this time, Xiao Chuo called Xiaosi's name and asked him to go over and sit down. Xiaosi raised his head and looked up, and shouted: "Meng Niang, I can't go there! It's not fun over there, Manjusri's father is the emperor

, I will be restrained!”

Yelvxian was stunned. He didn't expect Xiaosi to be so frank and bold, and refused on the spot. Xiao Chuo, however, smiled without being angry. He looked back at Yelvxian and then at Manjusri, who saw Manjusri looking at Xiaosi in a daze.

His eyes were full of envy and expectation. He immediately said: "Since Xiaosi doesn't want to come over, you can go and sit with him. Just remember not to drink too much!"

Manjusri slave was so happy that he immediately ran to Xiaosi's table and drank and laughed with a few people. Xiao Chuo looked at Manjusri slave from a distance and said in his heart: Longxu boy, I know you envy Xiaosi's freedom and unrestraint. But everyone has his own destiny.

Since you were born into an emperor's family, you should restrain your heart and uphold the emperor's career. The Khitan Kingdom will still need you to support it in the future!

The moon rises high, illuminating the Nabo camp as bright as day. The fire is warm and the wine is intoxicating. Xiao Si looks at the bright moon and suddenly thinks of the green goose. Seeing her standing neatly behind Xiao Chuo, he immediately throws it away.

He took the wine glass and ran to Xiao Chuo and said: "Mother, all the soldiers in the camp are having a drink tonight to celebrate their victory. Can you let Sister Qing'e come over and join us?"

Xiao Chuo looked back at Qing'e and saw that she lowered her head and said nothing. He smiled and said: "Qing'e is my most caring maid. Since you have spoken, Xiaosi, how can I deny it? Qing'e, just go over."

"

Xiaosi jumped for joy and said, "Thank you, Mother, for your permission!"

Qing'e's face turned red, and she pinched Xiaosi quietly, then followed him back to her seat. Xiaosi asked anxiously: "Sister Qing'e, why are you pinching me?"

Qing Ge said angrily: "Who wants you to be so loud? All the soldiers in the camp heard it!"

Xiao Si said blankly: "Just hear it, what's going on?"

The crazy monk held a piece of meat in his mouth and said inarticulately: "Little girl is shy! Everyone in the camp knows that you like her!"

Xiao Si was stunned for a moment, wondering where this was going? When did I fall in love with her?

When Ling Xiaoxiao heard this, she pouted her lips and glared at Monk Chidian. She turned away, feeling that it was not enough to relieve her anger, so she glared at Xiaosi again. Monk Chidian, Yue Lu, Qinglin, Zhang, and the other three suddenly burst into laughter.

Xiaosi scratched his head, confused and didn't understand why they were laughing.

The wine was fragrant and the fire was warming, and the Nabo camp was filled with joy and peace. When Xiao Chuo saw all the sergeants eating and drinking, he quietly stood up and said to a Gan Luduo guard beside him: "After the banquet is over, tell Shi Gandang,

Let him come to my tent and I will ask him something."
