The king is very dizzy and is going to sleep. Everyone is tired after marching thousands of miles, so let's all go back and rest. "

Xiao Feng saw that he was avoiding him intentionally, so it was inconvenient for him to say any more, at that moment everyone got up to say goodbye and went back to rest.

Xiao Feng was still the same as before he left for the expedition, he lived in the palace, he walked through the corridors and halls, and when he returned to the courtyard, everything was quiet, only the lights were on in two adjacent rooms, one was Lin Yanbi and Qing Xian's residence, and the other is Xiao Feng's residence.The orange light is reflected from the window screen, giving off a soft warmth.Xiao Feng subconsciously stopped, staring at the soft light, his heart gradually calmed down.He suddenly realized that he was really tired. In the past 30 years, he has almost never lived for himself. The hatred of his family and country, and the fighting between ethnic groups seem to have endless relations with him, from Liao Kingdom to Mongolia , spanned more than 100 years, but he still could not escape the fate of being involved. After so many things, especially this Southern Expedition, although he was prevaricated without any loss, it also kept him standing in front of Huang Rong. He made a promise not to kill a single Han Chinese, but the feeling of being caught in the middle is really uncomfortable. No one in this world has tasted the bitterness like him.At this moment, he felt that he was too tired, the exhaustion that flowed from the depths of his heart.He was born with the conditions to be a hero, so he was taught according to the standard of a hero from a young age. His teacher Wang Jiantong carefully cultivated him. He has been cast into an upright hero, a hero who can sacrifice everything for the nation and the country. Unfortunately, the heavens tricked him. He is not a Han. He cannot lead his ethnic Khitan to invade the land that raised him. Not to mention helping the Mongols in order to protect the descendants of Khitan, he was fed up with the feeling of being caught in the middle.

When he stared at the warm light, he realized that he was really tired. What he needed was not the worship of thousands of people. His weary heart has a warm port of call.He knew that the light in his room was lit by Lin Yanbi waiting for him to come back. In the past, he never paid attention to these details, but today he suddenly discovered how much he longed for a place where he could stop, even if it was only a piece of orange. The light also made him feel extremely warm.He thought silently in his heart: "Tomorrow, no matter what, I will go to resign from the prince!"

Xiao Feng walked past Lin Yanbi's room, his face was turned orange by the light from the window, he felt that the never-before-seen peace quietly passed through his heart.

"Brother Xiao." The people in the room suddenly called softly.

"Oh? What's the matter?" Xiao Feng stopped in his tracks.The moon in the sky is very round and has climbed to the culmination of the sky, the moonlight is sprinkled in the yard like water, the house is quiet, the night is already deep, but Xiao Feng will not ask Lin Yanbi again why the lamp is still on and does not sleep, He knew that these were superfluous, and there would no longer be such polite words between him and her.

"Did Kublai Khan make things difficult for you today?" Lin Yanbi's voice came from the room: "He is such a shrewd person, he may have already seen the reason for this."

"Yes, he saw it, but he didn't embarrass me. Instead, he kept expressing his approval. When I wanted to explain everything to him, he avoided me with excuses." After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he remembered Kublai Khan has always treated him well, and he feels very guilty in his heart. He has treated him so benevolently, but he can't be loyal to him. Could it be that since ancient times, there has been no two things in the world?

Lin Yanbi sighed softly, and said, "Then what are you going to do?"

Xiao Feng raised his head and said calmly: "Tomorrow, I will tell him the truth, and he can deal with it as he likes. I don't want to be caught in the middle again. No matter what, I will ask him to resign tomorrow."

Lin Yanbi was speechless for a long while, and then said softly after a long time: "Okay, I'll wait for your news here."

"Well, go to sleep." Xiao Feng replied, and walked past her room, he knew what Lin Yanbi meant by waiting for him, if something happened to him tomorrow, Lin Yanbi would never live alone in the world He didn't try to persuade her, he knew that just like Ah Zhu asked him to promise to live a good life, he finally broke his promise and stuck a sharp arrow into his chest with his own hands, Lin Yanbi would be like him Followed her underground like Azhu in her previous life, because he knew very well that it was too painful to live alone in the world.

He opened the door and walked into his room with the lights on. He felt the peace he had never experienced before. He didn't think about anything anymore. He just waited for the dawn to talk to Kublai Khan.

The next day, Xiao Feng went straight to Kublai Khan's residence after having breakfast.Walking into the courtyard where Kublai Khan lived, it was quiet inside, quite different from the usual scene of attendants going back and forth.Xiao Feng couldn't see the guards in the courtyard, so he went directly into the room, the room was also empty, only one attendant was dozing off sitting at the table.

Xiao Feng was very strange, he wondered if something happened, he walked quickly behind the attendant, and patted his shoulder lightly, the attendant turned his head in a daze, saw that it was Xiao Feng, jumped up to salute, no He kept smacking his own mouth, and said: "Damn the villain, he fell asleep for a while, and didn't see the general come in."

Xiao Feng waved his hands and said: "It doesn't matter, let me ask you, is the prince not at home?"

"Is it General Xiao?" A woman's voice came, and when Xiao Feng looked up, he saw three Mongolian women coming out from the back of the hall, one of them was wearing a beaded hat and had beautiful eyes, but he was Kublai Khan's concubine Tuya.

"Xiao Feng has seen the concubine." Xiao Feng bowed to her and said, "I have something to ask the lord, I wonder if the lord is at home?"

Tuya returned a salute, stretched out his hand to invite Xiao Feng to sit down, ordered someone to pour kumiss, and said with a smile: "General Xiao, is there something urgent for the lord?"

Xiao Feng said: "It's not something urgent, it's just some private matters of mine."

Tuya laughed and said: "Then General Xiao came at an unfortunate time. Last night, he sweated profusely and flew on horseback to send a report, asking the prince to rush to Yanjing overnight, saying that there is an urgent military discussion."

Xiao Feng was startled, thinking to himself that it was such a coincidence?Or did Kublai Khan guess his own mind and hide from him on purpose?Immediately said: "Did the prince say when he will come back?"

Tuya shook his head and said: "I didn't say anything, I set off immediately after receiving the report, and I didn't even have time to pack my clothes. Moreover, he also ordered not to say anything about this matter, so as not to encounter trouble on the road and delay the time to Yanjing. It's an urgent military situation."

Seeing her appearance, Xiao Feng did not seem to be lying, probably Yanjing really had an urgent military situation, presumably Kublai Khan would not have left in the middle of the night to avoid his resignation.Xiao Feng could only sigh softly in his heart, it seemed that resigning from office was really more difficult than imagined, he didn't even have a chance to speak.

Tuya looked at him, suddenly smiled slightly, and said: "My lord has a clever plan, and General Xiao will definitely come to him this morning, so I asked me to tell General Xiao a few words."

"Oh?" Xiao Feng looked up, "What does the lord want the wangfei to tell me?"

Tuya said: "My lord said that General Xiao has traveled east and west for more than half a year, conquered the north and south, and made great achievements in battle. Although General Xiao is the number one hero in the world, when a hero is tired, the lord is afraid that General Xiao will be exhausted. Tun allowed General Xiao to rest for a while, and said that the people in Linhuang City missed General Xiao very much, and General Xiao also wanted to go back to see them. There is also the land newly sealed by Da Khan to General Xiao, General Xiao should also go back Take a look at your fiefdom, if there is no major battle, the prince will not call General Xiao back to the army, General Xiao can open his mind and do what he likes."

Xiao Feng was moved when he heard this, he said slowly: "My lord has already seen through my heart, that's why I asked my concubine to say this to me. Your lord treated Xiao Feng with the utmost kindness and righteousness, which made Xiao Feng feel very guilty."

Tuya waved his hand and said: "General Xiao, don't say that, the prince asked me to tell you that you have done more than your faults in the past, and you will only remember your good things, and he will not take the rest to heart. He hopes General Xiao, don’t treat him like a prince, just treat him as a friend, he said that General Xiao is a hero who stands up to heaven and earth, and he will not do anything to offend his friends.”

After listening to Xiao Feng, he was speechless for a long time, Kublai Khan's affection for him was fully revealed in the words conveyed by Tuya, even though Xiao Feng was quite accusing of Kublai Khan's ambition, at this moment he couldn't help being He was deeply moved by these words, no matter what kind of person he is, at least he has truly done the utmost of benevolence and justice to Xiao Feng, a friend.

Xiao Feng bid farewell to Tuya and returned to the courtyard where he lived.Seeing Lin Yanbi standing under the green shade, looking towards the gate of the courtyard, her face was full of anxiety, and when she saw Xiao Feng coming back, her face immediately relaxed, she knew that regardless of whether the official resignation was successful or not, Xiao Feng was finally safe and sound .

Xiao Feng walked up to her, Lin Yanbi looked at his expression, and said softly: "Brother Xiao, it doesn't matter if you don't get your resignation, we will think about it later."

Xiao Feng shook his head and said: "I am not sad because of this, I know now, if I am determined to resign from this office, the prince will not make things difficult for me, he has always treated me as a friend, and even though I treat him as We are friends, but I always thought that he would threaten me with Linhuang, but I have always treated him like a villain." He raised his head and said in a deep voice: "I feel sad, yes Because I have always misunderstood him. I call myself a hero in vain, even a person who treats me sincerely
