My country is dead again [Rebirth]

As the night was getting dark, Shen Ci forced Xie Ruzhuo, who wanted to fight with Zhabusu for a hundred rounds, to go back to sleep. He was not only an invincible God of War who could fight all over the world, I'm afraid I can fly into the sky and escape from the ground.

Zhabusu was also exhausted physically and mentally, and regretted talking nonsense, but the atmosphere was quite harmonious when he said goodbye. It can be seen that both of them have recognized the friend they met for the first time. Zhabusu also remembered Shen who was praised by Xie Ruzhuo. Resignation, saying that we look forward to seeing each other on the battlefield in the future.

The next morning, after Xie Ruzhuo woke up, he learned that Zabusu had already taken a step ahead.

Anyway, they still have a lot of opportunities to meet in the future, and it is true that they have not reached the point of exchanging words.

They had just had breakfast when Zabusu sent someone to deliver 5 taels of silver bills, Xie Ruzhuo readily accepted it, feeling relieved that he had never seen so much money in eight lifetimes.

"Let's go, go find Qi Junmao again." Xie Ruzhuo, who is rich, is full of energy, "Although Zhabusu didn't retreat, he will still save face and retreat to a safe distance, so that there will be no more swords drawn. Qi Junmao will have no excuse Miss us."

When they returned to Haimen again, Yuemo, a native of Beidi at the border, had already retreated, and Zhabusu probably left the message "I have been here and then gone" on purpose to Qi Junmao when he left Dayu, so Qi Junmao did come again He couldn't come up with a pretense to keep them out of the door, so he opened the city gate with a black face and let them in.

Xie Ruzhuo acted very calmly, as if he didn't know anything, and didn't care about the matter of being shut out earlier, he smiled kindly at Qi Junmao and said, "It's really not easy to meet the general."

Qi Junmao was the oldest among the four generals, and his temples were already slightly frosted. He looked at Xie Ruzhuo with a look that was not respectful, but he seemed to be flustered with righteousness. After sitting down, he said, "When Your Majesty comes, the people from Beidi will retreat. , I admire you so much."

"It's a small matter." Xie Ruzhuo accepted the obviously sarcastic compliment without any shame, "There's no need to admire it so much."

Qi Junmao: "..."

"Your Majesty, just say what you want." Qi Junmao might just want to send Xie Ruzhuo away quickly. He didn't want to sit here and chat with him at all. Presumably, I cannot do without His Majesty."

Xie Ruzhuo complied with his wishes, and said without being annoying, "The general should have heard about it too. I have already approached Wu Xianrong, and perhaps the general already knows what I have said to Wu Xianrong. Then, I will say the same thing. Ask the general, what do you want from the imperial court?"

Although Wu Xianrong entered the capital secretly that day, Xishan General Soldier disappeared from Xishan overnight, and the emperor ignored it. Everyone can guess where he went, and he is most concerned about these things at this time There is no other three general soldiers, Qi Junmao should have sent people to Xishan several times to test.

Qi Junmao sat upright, with his hands on his knees, giving the impression that he was a majestic elder in the family. He met Xie Ruzhuo's eyes twice in the air, and said in a deep voice, "The Qi family is not a noble family. The big family, I have only guarded Haimen for more than ten years, and I can't compare with them. What I got today was bestowed by the former emperor, and this I still understand in my heart. Therefore, I don't want much. I just want to stay in a corner and be safe in Haimen. forever."

In fact, Xie Ruzhuo had known for a long time that Qi Junmao had a tepid temperament, he would not have too much ambition, and he did not want to be pinned down by others, so he stayed on the sidelines and did not want to negotiate with any party at will.

If Pei Yuankai and Wu Xianrong wanted to be rich, then what Qi Junmao wanted was not to be a poor man who was too poor to eat and wear clothes.

Xie Ruzhuo nodded slightly, and there was deep meaning in his words: "The general is a smart man, and those who advance and retreat well tend to live the longest." Seeing that Qi Junmao was still staring at him, he smiled knowingly, "What the general wants to ask is about the guards ?”

The Pei family is the most powerful in the army of the Suifang Guards, occupying the majority, Wu Xianrong has a few feet, and Qi Junmao can be ranked second, and Qi Junmao's foundation is not as good as the two, he is a humble soldier who has climbed up by his many years of military achievements, the Guards The power of the army is almost his last trump card, and he must keep it.

When dealing with these people, the most important thing is not to do anything absolutely, not only to control them without anyone noticing, but also not to cut off all their escape routes and make them a trapped beast. Xie Ruzhuo understands this well and asked: " The guards in the northwest of Suifang belong to the general?"

Qi Junmao acquiesced, and Xie Ruzhuo didn't give a shit about it, so he made it clear: "Well, at least when the general is guarding Haimen, I won't let the general's things hurt. If we want to rectify, I will give the general the power to make decisions."

"That's how Your Majesty promised Wu Xianrong?" Qi Junmao asked.

"Wu Xianrong has other wishes, and I promise him not to disclose them to the public, but it will not hinder the general." Xie Ruzhuo said with a smile, "Of course, Wu Xianrong also promised me some things. Only when there is reciprocity and reciprocity can it be called a transaction."

Qi Junmao nodded generously: "If His Majesty can do what he says, I will stay in Haimen safely. Without His Majesty's will, I will never go further south. If the court needs it, I will do my best."

"Don't worry, I won't let the general do anything embarrassing." Xie Ruzhuo took a group of [-] elite soldiers from Wu Xianrong that day. He had to be transferred from the Northern Frontier Army, who was familiar with the combat style of the Beidi cavalry, so he had to ask these dignitaries, "Northern Xinjiang is the last gate of Daqi, and I will not take too many of your soldiers and horses. As long as two Thousand cavalry, not many?"

Qi Junmao roughly knew the emperor's plan to rebuild the three major battalions, after a little thought, he agreed, saying that he would pick good people and send them to Lezhou in a few days.

This solved another one, Xie Ruzhuo let out a long breath, this trip was really worthwhile, smiled and said: "It's so good, I will let the general spend the rest of his life in Haimen safely."

Qi Junmao also heaved a sigh of relief, he could finally send the little fox away, he didn't keep them for dinner, he asked them to sit for a while, and he was not even happy to have another cup of tea, so he opened his mouth to see off the guests stiffly.

Xie Ruzhuo curled his lips secretly, left wisely, and returned with a rewarding experience.

On the way home, Xie Ruzhuo asked Shen Ci to stay by the carriage as usual. He repeatedly counted the time, counted over and over again, opened the curtain and asked them many times how fast they were traveling and when they could get there.

Song Qinglai felt strange, leaned close to Shen Ci, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong, Your Majesty? Why do I think this is a sign of extreme anxiety?"

Shen Ci frowned and said, "I don't know either."

As soon as the two exchanged a few words, Xie Ruzhuo lifted the curtain of the carriage again, poked his head out and asked nervously, "Did you meet anyone suspicious?" The two shook their heads innocently, and he urged , "We must be vigilant at all times. After passing Yaozhou, it is also Pei Yuankai's sphere of influence. Don't take it lightly."

Song Qinglai and Shen Ci looked at each other suspiciously, and replied respectfully: "Yes, I will pay attention, Your Majesty can rest assured."

Seeing that Xie Ruzhuo's expression was still disturbed, Shen Ci hesitated to speak again, but Xie Ruzhuo took the initiative to say: "Shen Jiang...Shen Jingli, I have something to tell you, you come to the carriage."

Shen Ci responded, got off the horse and got into the carriage.

Xie Ruzhuo looked out of the small window again, muttered something, pulled Shen Ci's hand to his side, and said: "General Shen, from now on, you can't leave me half a step, and you must listen to me , I do what I say."

Shen Ci was also confused by Xie Ruzhuo's anomaly today, and tentatively asked: "Is Your Majesty worried about what will happen? Could it be that someone will harm His Majesty? If Your Majesty knows something and trusts me, you might as well say it. Will protect His Majesty."

"Well, I can't tell." Xie Ruzhuo said with a sad face, "Pei Yuankai's power in the guard army runs from north to south, and even the piece in the southwest is his territory. But that piece is not only bordering Chizhou, but the former General Shen I also passed by when I went south, and it is also very close to Ningya where King Yan is."

Shen Ci nodded. What Xie Ruzhuo was talking about was the long and narrow area extended by Ning Ya. When he went south to rescue Xie Mingting, he entered Chizhou from the southwest of Suifang, and fought all the way to the foot of Qianhuan Mountain along the narrow and long border. Li thought of something and asked, "Is King Yan colluding with Pei Yuankai?"

"Collusion is not a thing." Xie Ruzhuo said, "It's just that sometimes in the face of some interests, they will make things easier for each other."

"Then shall we go another way?" King Yan was a thorn between the two of them in the previous life, and when Shen Ci mentioned it, he was a little terrified, "If King Yan enters Suifang, the farthest he can go is only Now that we’ve reached this point, let’s go around a little further to the northeast, where it’s closer to Wanyang, and we can ask General Song for help.”

Xie Ruzhuo pondered for a while, then he didn't know what plan he was planning in his mind. He shook his head and said, "Forget it. Anyway, the relationship with Song Qingge is still a bit stiff now. Although I believe he will help, I still don't want to owe you too much." Favorable."

After speaking, he sighed, dragged the blanket around his body a little tiredly, leaned on the soft couch, closed his eyes and fell silent.

The reason why he was so anxious and paranoid was because they encountered an assassination on the way back in their previous life.

In reviving his life, what he was afraid of was not that he would be in danger, but because Shen Ci was injured in this assassination in his previous life.

It's not heavy, but there is a long scar on his shoulder, which can be seen every time he falls asleep with Shen Ci in his arms, and he will remember it over time——

Shen Ci was once injured in order to protect him.

In the past, Cao Mengde would have preferred him to bear the burden of the world, but Xie Ruzhuo only felt that he was not a competent emperor, probably because of the hardships he experienced in the past, and the fact that he took on such a heavy burden in the ups and downs of his youth. He had always been an emperor who was harder on himself than everyone else.

The desire to be strong in his bones turned into a paranoid insistence. He would rather the world bear him down than allow himself to bear the world down.

What's more, Shen Ci.

He felt that he was not worthy of Shen Ci's sincerity, let alone being hurt a little more by Shen Ci.

Shen Ci, who was called into the carriage, was put aside again. He finally thought of what they would encounter on the return journey from the corners of his memories, but scratching his hair, he felt that Xie Ruzhuo didn't have to worry about this. Not too dangerous.

Seeing Xie Ruzhuo resting with his eyes closed and still frowning, I really wanted to reach out to smooth the wrinkles between his brows, so that Xie Ruzhuo would never have to worry, and let him settle those worries.

When he was 11 years old, he remembered very clearly that Xie Ruzhuo was the prettiest when he smiled.

Shen Ci didn't say any more, helped Xie Ruzhuo tuck up the blanket, and got out of the carriage lightly.

The author has something to say: My mother loves Xiao Xie Zai Zai every day, and she lives too hard.It's not easy for Zai Zai to have a career and fall in love every day.
