The mountains and rivers are quiet and broad

Xu Qingfeng didn't know.

Of course he wouldn't know!The time flow rate in the stone of life and death is actually different from the outside world? !

For three days, Chen Ke must be very worried. After Xu Qingfeng realized it, he was anxious to go back. At the same time, he felt strange that he had disappeared for three days, and it wasn't Chen Ke who was waiting outside this door?

"Where's the prince?" A bad guess flashed through his mind for a moment, making Xu Qingfeng's face even more ugly.

Tianwen quickly grabbed Xu Qingfeng: "Don't worry! The prince has already gone to the front line with the army..."

Xu Qingfeng suddenly stopped in his tracks: "Frontline? What's the situation now!"

"Don't panic, the prince asked me to wait for you here, just in case you panic..." Tian Wen comforted him slowly, and then muttered depressedly: "Who knows that three days have passed before you came out..."

Xu Qingfeng couldn't help urging: "Say it quickly."

Tianwen saw that Xu Qingfeng was really in a hurry, so he told him: On the day Xu Qingfeng went to find the master of the law, the Seventh Army of the Cao Family arrived at Xiaomaocai Village, and early the next morning, the Eighth Army of the Cao Family arrived at Xiaomaocai Village. Chen Yiyun, the leader of the army, rushed to Juyanhe City, and read out the Holy Majesty's oral order: Order Ren Wang to lead the army to resist foreign enemies.

After Zhou Zhou prophesied that the war would start, Chen Mao sent a secret letter to Chen Ke who was thousands of miles away.

Because the two brothers had ventilated beforehand, when the war broke out, Chen Ke appeared very calm. It was Chen Ke's instruction that Chen Yiyun would divert to Juyanhe City on the way.On the same day, Chen Ke followed Chen Yiyun to Xiaomaocai Village.

What Tianwen said was a bit confusing, but Xu Qingfeng still understood: "The prince left two days ago?"

Tianwen nodded, "One more thing, Aman found a way to heal Brother Guan's eyes!"

"Really?" Xu Qingfeng was delighted, but his footsteps were still hurried, "It only takes one day to reach Xiaomaocai Village, right?"

"Are you going now?" Tian Wen followed Xu Qingfeng's footsteps, almost jogging, "You'd better take a break and go with Brother Guan tomorrow, and Aman, Aman is very skilled in medicine and can serve as a military doctor , my lord asked them to go with you."

Xu Qingfeng was relieved when he heard that Chen Ke did not forbid him to go to the front line, his pace slowed down, he was too nervous just now, and now his eyes were a little dark.

"Xu Qingfeng, are you okay?"

Xu Qingfeng shook his head, said it was all right, stood there for a while, and then continued walking with Tianwen. "What about the battle situation? You haven't said how the front line is going."

"I haven't fought again for the past few days. It seems that the place was hit hard before." Tianwen said that he was a little excited about this, but scratched his head embarrassedly: "Actually, I don't really understand, I just heard what they said , some say it’s good, some say it’s not.”

Now that the two armies are confronting each other, both of them stand still. Cao's army took the opportunity to ask for reinforcements to restore their vitality, but the local area is probably waiting for an opportunity, and it is still unknown whether the north will also start a war.

The air was tense, and Tianwen couldn't understand the adults' discussions, but Xu Qingfeng was sensitively aware of the tense atmosphere in Wu Qi's compound.

"Wuqi's soldiers, were they taken away by the prince?" Xu Qingfeng asked.

Tian Wen nodded and said yes. Seeing that Xu Qingfeng didn't speak, and his brows were furrowed, Tian Wen also became nervous, with worry written on his face: "Xu Qingfeng, what's wrong?"

Xu Qingfeng reached out and patted Tian Wen's head soothingly, "It's okay..."

Tianwen didn't feel at ease because of this, and wanted to ask again, but felt that Xu Qingfeng wouldn't talk to him too much, just like Aman, who spoke softly, but treated him like a child, Uncle Wusuli followed the prince When Aunt Wuxuli asked her, she didn't know anything, and Brother Guan and Brother Zuo, they all treated him like a child.

Tian Wen pursed his lips, and the thoughts in his heart were expressed on his face, distressed for a while, angry for a while, very vivid.

Xu Qingfeng looked at Tianwen, a thought crossed his mind, he thought about it and asked, "Did Master Shilu tell you why you came here before mid-August?"

Tian Wen raised his head in confusion, "Huh? No."

"Didn't Uncle Ussuri say that?"

Tian Wen bit his lip, showing a somewhat uneasy expression: "No...what's wrong?"

Xu Qingfeng didn't want to explain at first, but looking at Tian Wen's eyes full of tension and expectation, Xu Qingfeng changed his mind and said, "It's just that I don't understand it, since the master of law has asked for it, there must be his reason. "

"Must there be a reason?" Tian Wen struggled for a while and asked back.

Xu Qingfeng didn't answer immediately, until Tianwen raised his eyes, the uneasiness in his eyes was fully exposed, Xu Qingfeng smiled and said: "It's okay if you don't have to."

Tianwen looked a little haggard, thinking about it, he was also worried about him. He didn't know how long he had been guarding behind the door. Xu Qingfeng felt grateful and distressed at the same time.

Tianwen is only ten years old, and most people here see him as just a child. No one knows Tianwen's experience and feels his feelings. Children of the same age are also ordered by their parents not to "disturb" Tianwen.In their view, Zhilv is a god-man, a master, and Tianwen is no less than a "little master" who holds the law.

Tianwen is very lonely, much more lonely than when he was in Wushan Temple, not only has no playmates, but also no relatives.

Master Jilu stayed in that thatched hut every day, and it could be seen that the master was not close to his fellow nephew.

Thinking of the scene when he saw Wusuli for the first time, Xu Qingfeng was very puzzled. Why did Tianwen need to come to Juyanhe City before August?

Xu Qingfeng was thoughtful, and Tian Wen felt uneasy in his heart. He knew what Xu Qingfeng wanted to ask, but he really didn't know, and he didn't dare to ask, and he didn't dare to ask the abbot who held the law.

Following Xu Qingfeng back to Xu Qingfeng's residence, Tian Wen ran away, saying that he still had homework unfinished, walking in a hurry, as if someone was chasing him.

Xu Qingfeng didn't seem to care, and walked straight towards the bed. There was Xu Qingfeng's familiar smell on the pillow, and he threw himself into the bed, just like throwing himself into Chen Ke's arms.

Xu Qingfeng fell asleep in a daze. The experience in the stone of life and death made him exhausted. Before losing consciousness, Xu Qingfeng vaguely thought: when he wakes up, he will go to Chen Ke... as if he saw Chen Ke's surprised expression , Xu Qingfeng fell into a deep sleep with a smile.

Xiaomaocai Village...

This is a village that has been abandoned for several years. There is a short grove within a mile of the village with sparse branches, but it is much more lively than this village.

There are only two or three complete houses in the village. As soon as Chen Ke came, he lived in the best house without hesitation.But even this best house still has air leaks on all sides, insufficient light, and a thick layer of sand on the ground.

Grandpa Quan looked at the living environment, sighed faintly, asked someone to fetch a thick tent cloth, surrounded it along the wall, and then split the cloth according to the position of the original window to allow the air to circulate. Find a way to find a carpet to lay it down, then arrange the bed and table, and then separate the inner room with a screen...

Seeing the brand-new house, Quan Gonggong is proud and satisfied. How can it be done if it is not well-arranged?He served two masters.

When Chen Ke approached the house, he just paused, not too surprised. He must have been accustomed to Grandpa Quan's ability.

But Cao Dingkun, Commander of the Three Armies of the Cao Family, Chen Yikai, Commander of the Seventh Army of the Cao Family, and Chen Yiyun, Commander of the Eighth Army of the Cao Family, who came in behind Chen Ke, had some thoughts in their hearts.

——This is indeed still a prince, he really enjoys it.

——Is it possible that those who come out of the palace are not precious?

— Tsk, pay attention.

——I know, I know, ah, the prince is looking at you.

- It's up to you.

--Stop it!Be serious.

Chen Ke watched the three of them exchange glances in front of him expressionlessly, and waited for the three of them to put away their casual expressions and look at him. Chen Ke still maintained a stern expression and was not in a hurry to speak.

King Ren's reputation is well-known, and he suddenly came to the frontier. Although Emperor Xuande ordered him, he couldn't stop the chaotic speculation. At this moment, the three standing in front of Chen Ke had their own thoughts. Let the three of them submit to themselves, skip those meaningless hypocrisy and obedience, and talk about business directly.

"Let me tell you what you think first."

Cao Dingkun, Chen Yikai, and Chen Yiyun looked at each other in blank dismay. King Ren's directness was different from what they had imagined.

Although he is not an idiot who doesn't know anything, but the presence of a "bad star" is not necessarily a good thing.

Because of Chen Ke's previous strategy, Cao Dingkun had a better impression of Chen Ke. He bowed towards Chen Ke, clasped his fists respectfully and saluted, cleared his throat and said loudly: "My lord, the last general has been stationed in the frontier for four years. Kaze The Yado tribe is a large tribe in the desert. Their main city is in the Lianhe Fan, fifty miles away from the frontier to the west. It was the residence of the Yang people many years ago, and was later occupied by the Kazeyado tribe. The Lianhe Fan is a treasure land. The Kazeya people have developed very well in recent years, the army is strong, the horses are tall and strong, and the food and grass are abundant..."

Cao Dingkun's words sounded like a complaint, but it is an indisputable fact that the food and payment have not arrived yet.Cao Dingkun secretly observed Chen Ke's expression while talking, but Chen Ke was indifferent, and motioned Cao Dingkun to continue.

"Uh, from the general's point of view, the lack of food and pay is the biggest problem at present."

"What else?" Chen Ke asked lightly again.

Cao Dingkun's forehead was sweating, and now he began to feel the horror of this king of benevolence, "No more..."

Chen Ke then turned his gaze to Chen Yikai and Chen Yiyun, signaling that it was time for them to talk.

These three people are all sons of generals who have been training abroad all the year round. They experienced training when they were young, and went to the border when they grew up. They rarely had the opportunity to meet the nobles in Beijing. Although Chen Yikai and Chen Yiyun were surnamed Chen, they only heard of them more than Cao Dingkun. It's just anecdotes, it doesn't count how much you know about King Ni.

Chen Yikai was bolder and more thoughtful. Standing with the bearded Chen Yiyun, he looked fairer, "My lord, 2 people from the Seventh Army, 3 from the Eighth Army, There are 6000 people, plus 2 from the Uchi clan, there are a total of 4 troops, and the food and grass can only last for seven days. After seven days, the court's food and salaries may or may not be available, while the Kazeyaduo clan was less than [-] They also began to send reinforcements two days ago, the reinforcements from the second largest tribe in the desert, the Mi tribe, and the Kexido tribe are estimated to be around [-], and they will arrive in three days."

"At that time, 12 were fighting against [-], and under the circumstances of insufficient food and grass, old weapons, and injured horses..." Chen Yikai spoke clearly, afraid that Chen Ke would not understand, and said slowly: "From the point of view of General Yimo, I’m afraid—it’s hard to win more with less.”
