Outside the Luodu Camp, Mu Zhiming was standing beside the horse that pouted its hooves and shook its head, waiting quietly.

The setting sun is setting and the geese are flying south. It snowed last night. Today, the cold humidity in the air penetrates every inch of your skin. Mu Zhiming went out in a hurry and forgot to put on his cloak. He shivered, covered his lips and coughed twice.

It's been a long time since Xia Tian didn't go this way, although Mu Zhiming was very patient, but because he was thinking about Gu Heyan being beaten by the army stick, he wished he could rush into the camp immediately and meet Gu Heyan.

After waiting and waiting, finally, the figure of Dr. Xia appeared in Mu Zhiming's sight

Panting, Doctor Xia ran to the front of the barracks, bowed to Mu Zhiming and said, "Master Hou, the general is not in the barracks."

For a moment, disappointment was like a raging huge wave, instantly submerging Mu Zhiming, and Mu Zhiming sighed: "Where did he go?"

Doctor Xia replied: "I heard that the general is going to deliver swords and ironware. I am useless and cannot lead Lord Hou into the barracks."

"Doctor Xia, don't say that." Mu Zhiming hurriedly said, "If you don't follow the rules, you can't become a square. The Fusion Flame Army has always been strict in discipline. How can you blame it? It's okay. I'll wait in front of the barracks."

"Ah? Are you waiting here?" Xia Wu was taken aback, "I don't know when the general will return!"

Mu Zhiming smiled and said: "It's okay, I've come all the time, I'm really not reconciled to not seeing him, but I have something to ask, can I trouble Dr. Xia to bring me a cloak, ahem, the wind has been blowing for a long time , it makes people feel very cold, cough cough."

"Oops!" Xia Tian felt his pulse in a hurry, "Master Hou, you have suffered from lung disease, you can't help freezing! I'll go get a cloak right away, just wait!"

Speaking of Doctor Xia trotting into the barracks again, Mu Zhiming said to his back: "Doctor Xia, run slowly, don't worry, cough cough..."

There was a dull pain in his chest, Mu Zhiming lowered his head and coughed, and stood silently to the right side of the horse, using the horse's body to block a little bit of cold wind, which was better than nothing.

At this moment, a deep voice suddenly sounded in Mu Zhiming's ear.

"Are you Xuan Ning Hou?"

Mu Zhiming looked up and saw a bearded, about 30-year-old man in black armor getting off his horse and walking towards him.

"Mu Zhiming, I have met you before, who is he?" Mu Zhiming endured the discomfort in his chest, cupped his fists and saluted politely.

Zhong Zhaofan didn't report his family name immediately, but said: "I am a member of this army camp. Marquis Xuan Ning is here to see General Gu, right? It's going to be night soon, it's freezing outside, how can you let him go?" You condescend to blow the air here, and I will lead you into the barracks."

Mu Zhiming looked at him, as if thinking of something, his eyes fluttered slightly, and he suddenly smiled and said: "Thank you, I just asked Dr. Xia in the army to help me get a cloak. If I leave now, I am worried that Dr. Xia will find you. Not to me."

Zhong Zhaofan: "It's easy to handle, just ask the guard to talk to Dr. Xia."

Mu Zhiming hesitated, but suddenly another gust of cold wind blew by, making him shiver in the cold, and Mu Zhiming didn't want to wait until he saw Gu Heyan in a sick body, so he clasped his fists and said, "Then there will be Lord Lao Zhong."

Zhong Zhaofan was stunned, his face changed slightly, he was silent for a while, then smiled and said: "It turns out that Lord Hou recognizes me."

Mu Zhiming said calmly: "The Luodu camp follows the military regulations of the Flame Army. If you don't have a pass card, if you want to enter the barracks, you have to be ordered by the commander. If you are not the commander of the Southern Border Army, Zhong Zhaofan, how can the guards let you go?"

Zhong Zhaofan: "Master Hou is very familiar with the military regulations of the Melting Flame Army."

Mu Zhiming: "When I was young, I went to the frontier twice and lived in the army's camp. Naturally, I have to understand the rules."

Zhong Zhaofan: "Master Hou sent tigers and wolves to foreign countries before the war. It is admirable. Don't talk too much. Please, Master Hou."

Zhong Zhaofan led Mu Zhiming into the tent of the commander of the Southern Frontier Army, asked him to sit down at the low table, ordered someone to bring hot tea, and placed it in front of Mu Zhiming.

"Thank you." Mu Zhiming nodded, took a cup of hot tea, and took a sip to warm his body.

Zhong Zhaofan sat down opposite Mu Zhiming: "There is only rough tea in the army, please don't dislike it, Lord Hou."

Mu Zhiming said: "Don't dare."

At this moment, a soldier of the Southern Border Army opened the curtain to enter the tent, and in Zhong Zhaofan's ear, he said in a voice that Mu Zhiming could not hear: "Gu Heyan has arrived at the gate of the barracks."

"Okay." Zhong Zhaofan nodded.

The soldiers clasped their fists and retreated.

Mu Zhiming: "Master Zhong, do you have something to do?"

Zhong Zhaofan shook his head with a smile: "It's nothing, I've heard that Master Hou is very talented. I don't know something, so I ask Master Hou to advise."

Mu Zhiming: "Tell me."

Zhong Zhaofan: "What do you mean by high meritorious service?"

Mu Zhiming never expected that he would ask such an insinuating question, his eyes darkened, and he asked back: "Dare to ask Mr. Zhong, what is the Lord?"

Zhong Zhaofan didn't even think about it: "The king is in charge."

"If the king is in charge..." Mu Zhiming said loudly, "What is the world? What is the family and country? What are the people?"

Zhong Zhaofan was stunned.

Mu Zhiming said: "Those who conceal their sharpness, serve the people wholeheartedly, and do not overstep are called loyal ministers; the credit of a loyal minister is the credit of the king; because the water source is clear, the flow is clear. If you are a loyal minister, no matter how high your merit is, so what?"

Zhong Zhaofan was silent for a while when he heard the words, and when he spoke again, he praised: "It seems that Hou Ye's words to determine the peace of the frontier are not something that happened out of nothing, but it's a pity..."

He suddenly drew a long voice, raised his chin, and looked contemptuously: "It's a pity that Hou Ye married General Gu in order to gain military power. For the rest of his life, he can only be a whore who sells laughter under men's crotches."
