Bai Yan listened to Shui Yan's words and asked mockingly: "Enlisting in the army is different from being at home. You have to go to the battlefield. If you want to be promoted, you can only perform meritorious service!"
Obviously, this fat middle-aged man, even though he knew that Shui Yan had studied martial arts, still didn't think highly of Shui Yan.
After all, unlike dancing with a sword at home, one has to kill people on the battlefield!
The ones who were killed were not just one or two.
"Uncle, please be considerate, Yan will naturally know."
Shui Yan listened to Bai Yan's words and said neither humble nor overbearing.
Inside the pavilion.
Bai Zhong and Bai Yan looked at the young man in front of them. They had already advised him what they needed to do. Since the young man still decided to join the army, they said nothing more.
"Except for asking for my surname Bai, if there is anything else you need, I will definitely do it."
Bai Zhong asked.
In Bai Zhong's heart, although the Bai family is not as good as before, no matter whether it is money or connections in the military, it is enough to satisfy the young man. Although his father Bai Qi is deceased, in the past, his father's subordinates would give him a portion of Bai's noodles.
What's more, the third son, Uncle Bai, is also in the army.
Although Mrs. Bai didn't want to betroth Junzhu to a young man, she also didn't want to be talked about in the future.
What needs to be made up for will be made up for.
"If you can, just give me two pairs of armor."
Shui Yan was not polite, nor did he make any excessive demands. He only asked for two Qin Jia.
After all, if it were not for Qin Jia, once he entered the battlefield after joining the army, he would probably face the enemy's sword and halberd with only civilian clothes.
"Of course. Do you have any other requirements?"
Bai Zhong obviously didn't expect the young man's request to be so simple. He was a little surprised and had a little smile on his face.
"No, if there is nothing wrong with Mr. Bai, Yan will resign."
Shui Yan shook his head and said.
Bai Zhong sighed in his heart after listening to the young man's words, obviously seeing that the young man was not very willing to contact and talk with him.
"Lao Bai, uncle Yan, please retire first!"
When Shui Yan saw Bai Zhong shaking his head, he handed over and left.
Shui Yan had already seen that the reason why Bai Zhong called him over was just to make up for him.
However, Shui Yan had just turned around and left, and before he had taken two steps, he heard Bai Yan's voice.
"Boy, if you don't want to go to Zhao State to fight in the future, you can send a letter to tell Bai Shi, and Bai Shi will make arrangements for you."
One sentence made Shui Yan turn his head and look at Bai Yan.
Shui Yan knew clearly that Bai Yan was telling him that it was best not to go to Zhao with the army, and the Bai family had the ability to save him from going to Zhao.
Obviously, Bai Yan's words were really for his own good. Going to Zhao State would represent Qin State and fight with Zhao State, and the opponent would be Zhao State Li Mu.
The man who killed Qin General Huan Jue six years ago and caused more than 200,000 casualties to the Qin army.
"Thank you uncle! Yanhui."
Shui Yan thanked Bai Yan. After looking at Bai Yan, he turned and left the pavilion.
Inside the pavilion.
Bai Zhong looked at the young man's leaving figure.
"You shouldn't have said those words just now! I have prepared a letter for Bai Yu, and Yu'er will arrange it himself."
Bai Zhong said softly. In his words, it was Bai Yan who should not be so impulsive. You must know that once those words spread, it would be the root of trouble for Bai.
"Father, please be patient, that boy is mature and will not tell anyone."
Bai Yan was not as worried as Bai Zhong.
After the death of Qin general Huan Jue at the hands of Li Mu six years ago, it has become a secret tacit agreement among all the nobles that the family members should not join the Zhao army.
Although after the Qin general Huan Jue, Li Xin, the most famous Li family member of the Qin Dynasty's young faction, was not afraid of tigers when he was born, and indeed dared to invite troops to attack Zhao. But the result was not surprising at all.
In the end, if Li Mu hadn't shown mercy, Li Xin wouldn't have been able to return to Qin.
After that incident, entering Zhao to fight became a taboo for the children of the gentry. As long as you knew about going to Zhao, you would get other orders through your family's connections.
"That kid has never been to Qin State and doesn't know the inside story. After a while, other gentry disciples were ordered to leave the army, but that kid ran to Zhao State in a daze and lost his life."
Bai Yan looked at Shui Yan's back in the distance, with a hint of guilt on his fat cheeks.
Although neither he nor his wife wanted Jun Zhu to suffer in the future, so they were dissatisfied with the young man. Not to mention that the entire Bai family, including his father and mother, would not agree to the marriage.
But a marriage contract is a marriage contract, and it is true that Zou's father saved his life. Without Zou's father, he would have been in trouble fifteen years ago.
Whether it's out of compensation or repayment of gratitude. Since the young man has canceled the marriage and is determined to join the army, he will do his best to keep the young man alive.
This can be regarded as repaying a debt of gratitude to Zou's father who saved his life.
One life for another. If Father Zou saves him, he will also save the young man's life.
In Bai Junzhu's boudoir, Bai Junzhu looked at the jade pendant in her hand, her beautiful eyes looking at her little sister in shock.
She didn't expect that her younger sister would be so bold and secretly steal the boy's jade pendant.
"Little sister, you are too presumptuous!"
Bai Junzhu stared at Bai Yingxue with her beautiful eyes. Her already fair and cold pretty face seemed to be even whiter at this moment, but this time, it was pale.
"Sister~! I was just afraid that the person would regret it, so I went to get it~!"
Bai Yingxue coaxed her beautiful eyes with a look of grievance, and tears fell down her cheeks. This was the first time since she was a child that she had seen her eldest sister so angry, and she was still angry at her.
Bai Yingxue lowered her head and sobbed, her heart full of grievances.
She just wishes her eldest sister well!
In the boudoir.
Seeing Bai Yingxue lowering her head, even though she didn't make a sound, her trembling and sobbing look made Bai Junzhu feel softer.
"If that person really regretted it, he would not have said those words in the first place. Do you know the consequences of what you did? Once word gets out, no matter what our Bai family says, in the mouths of people all over the world, the Bai family will
You will no longer have a good reputation!"
Bai Junzhu finally spoke softly and did not reprimand the younger sister. Instead, he told the younger sister that the consequences would be really serious.
"Sister~, what should we do?"
Bai Yingxue raised her pretty face full of tears and looked at Bai Junzhu with her beautiful eyes.
At this moment, Bai Yingxue obviously understood, because she went to steal the jade pendant without authorization, and if it really spread as the eldest sister said, the consequences would be immeasurable.
If the Bai family's reputation is really damaged, my grandfather and father will be angry to death.
"Now we can only return the jade pendant to its original place before he goes back."
Bai Junzhu said that she had no other better way.
When Bai Yingxue heard this, she sobbed and nodded.
"Stop crying, why didn't I see you cry when I was brave enough!"
Bai Junzhu said softly and angrily, and then left the room with Bai Yingxue.
It's just that the two sisters have good ideas.
But when Bai Junzhu and Bai Yingxue were about to return the jade pendant, they found that the young man in the distance had returned to the guest room door.
Seeing this scene, not to mention Bai Junzhu panicked, even Bai Yingxue's pretty face turned pale in an instant.
"Sister, what should I do?"
How happy I was when I stole it, how scared I am now. This sentence describes Bai Yingxue's appearance at this moment.
"Is the place where the jade pendant is placed conspicuous?"
Bai Junzhu was also in a panic. At the moment, he could only hope that the young man would not find out later.
"I found it under the bamboo slips in his package!"
After Bai Yingxue finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something: "Sister, I'm going to ask him to come out. You can help me put him back!"
Even though it was inside the package, Bai Yingxue was still worried about it being discovered by the young man.
She also knew that the eldest sister had never done such a thing, but now she had no other way. Only the eldest sister could help her.
"I?"
Bai Junzhu looked at her little sister absentmindedly. Helping her to watch had already made her uneasy and very uneasy.
Why did the little sister ask her to sneak into the boy's room personally?
"Sister~! Help me!"
Bai Yingxue held her eldest sister's sleeves with her slender hands, her beautiful eyes felt a little guilty, but she was still praying more.
