Uncle Jinwu Zangyi

It was a month later that Xiao Kan met Qi Wang Chusi in Xinjiang.

At that time, Xiao Kan was stationed at the second pass. When Chu Si arrived, it was night, and the temperature in the frontier was much lower than that in the Central Plains. Xiao Kan quickly asked someone to prepare a brazier for Chu Si.

Xiao Kan was a little nervous before, and he was a little afraid of neglecting Chu Si, but when the other party entered the barracks, he didn't look like a prince or general at all. When he saw Xiao Kan, he chatted casually and went straight to the brazier.

Before this, Xiao Kan still had doubts. After all, he had a lot of power in his hands. This Chu Si clearly pushed the border here forcefully. He was afraid that he would offend the prince, and it would be a lot of trouble.

However, he was a little surprised to see that Chu Si just treated him like an ordinary soldier.

"General Xiao, why are you stuck there? It's so cold at night, why don't you come over to keep warm?" Chu Si waved his hand at him.

Xiao Kan was slightly stunned, then walked over and sat down by the brazier.

"May I ask the general's name?" Chu Si turned over the coals with his pestle.

Chu Si didn't even know his own name, whether it was in the court hall or in the military camp, it seemed too unreasonable to ask such a question.

"Xiao Kan, Zi Jingyun." Xiao Kan replied truthfully, with various doubts in his heart.

Chu Si nodded, "Jingyun, good name."

"King Qi is overwhelmed." Xiao Kan felt a little beautiful in his heart, after all, this was Song Yu's words for him.

"You don't have to treat me with such doubts." Chu Si patted the other party's shoulder, "I just didn't have time to know you. I was not in Fujing when you were named general. Some news is broken from me."

Xiao Kan replied respectfully: "I dare not."

"After coming here, there will be no distinction between kings and generals in the future. We are all brothers in the military camp. We should defeat the enemy and return home as soon as possible." Chu Si said in a harmonious voice, which made people feel very approachable.

Although Xiao Kan saw the other party for the first time, he was wary, but he couldn't help but be convinced by the other party's words.

"King Qi's words are very true, my subordinates will bear in mind." Xiao Kan clasped his fists and said politely.

Chu Si twisted two pieces of charcoal with his hands and put them in the basin, "When you come to Xinjiang, you are a general, why do you still claim to be a subordinate, so I don't respect you."

"King Qi is serious." Xiao Kan couldn't figure out what the other party meant, "Your subordinates are just people in name, so how can you talk about it with King Qi?"

Chu Si had a serious face, "General Xiao, let me tell you clearly, so as to save trouble in the future."

"Please speak."

"You say you are a general in name, but I am also a king in name only. You are trying to lift the three crowns to win the title of the West, and I am just a substitute who was rushed to this place. You still have the ability , and I just have a scabbard, how can I talk about it." Chu Si said, with a look of involuntary control.

Shocked, Xiao Kan swallowed his breath, "Why did King Qi tell me this..."

"General, I can't tell you that the emperor's family is controlled by others, but I am willing to tell you about it. I just want to tell you that you are a general, and I am willing to obey you, in order to restore the peace of the territory as soon as possible, and give the world the sea. Qingheyan." Chu Si was upright and awe-inspiring.

"My subordinate understands."

Chu Si shook his head, "You still don't understand enough."

Xiao Kan frowned, "Please clarify."

"It is inconvenient for me to say more about other things, but I want you to remember that when we come here, you and I will guard this territory. You have power and I am famous. Suspicion is indispensable in the camp. This is a big taboo that disturbs the morale of the army."

"The subordinates know that the subordinates have no intention of disloyalty."

"I only hope that you and I will work together to put down this chaotic enemy as soon as possible. I am not as brave as you, and I am not very good at fighting. I only know a little about the art of war. I will have to rely on you in the days to come." Chu Si said modestly, clasping his fists.

Xiao Kan seemed flattered, "This subordinate is nothing but..."

"Hey, don't say any more roundabout words. What I say is the truth. I only ask for your heart and my heart, and that's enough."

"Yes."

Xiao Kan didn't know why, but he was in awe of this King Qi from the bottom of his heart.

This should be the case for the people and the king, Xiao Kan thought.

………………

Soon, more than four months passed, and it was the twelfth lunar month.

—————Du Wangfu.

"A Yao, bring me some water..."

"water……"

Chu Ming yelled twice, but found that no one responded. He opened his eyes and saw that he was the only one left on the couch.

"Han Bai!" Chu Ming was furious and shouted towards the door.

Immediately afterwards, Han Bai, who was still dressed in black, pushed the door open, "Master, please give me instructions."

"Where's Guan Ruoren!" Chu Ming pinched his brows, feeling a little tired afterwards.

"Guan Gongzi left the residence before last night." Han Bai replied truthfully.

The weather in the twelfth lunar month was cold, Chu Ming pulled the quilt to cover his naked upper body, "Who told him to go?"

"Master..." Han Bai hesitated, "You said that no one should be disrespectful to him."

Chu Ming stared at Han Bai with a look of "say one more word", and finally punched the quilt angrily.

"Bring him back to me, the king will see him before tonight." Chu Ming lay back again.

Han Bai stood like a green pine, and there was no emotion in his voice, "Today is 29, and the queen calls you back to the palace today."

"Okay... the king knows." Chu Ming closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, "Go down."

Han Bai nodded, "Yes."

"Wait." Chu Ming opened his eyes and called the other party to stop.

"Master, what else can I order?" Han Bai asked with a straight face.

Chu Ming was silent for a moment, and said, "Bring me back Du Nujiao."

Night, every New Year's Eve, Fujing Palace.

"Oh, Your Majesty, look how much our grandson looks like Ming'er." The elegantly dressed queen smiled while hugging a chubby sleeping baby.

Sitting at the side, with an angry face and a yellow robe, was none other than Chu Huang, the emperor of Dali——Chu Deng.

When Chu Huang saw the baby in the brocade swaddle, his expression softened a lot, "The child is still so young, who do you look like?"

"It's not like Ming'er, who else can it be like." The queen snorted.

Chu Ming sat aside and smiled, looked at the woman beside him, and said, "You look like Nujiao."

Du Nujiao's eyes flickered, and he hesitated and said: "No, no."

"Like everyone, our grandchildren need to grow up quickly." The queen didn't even look at Du Nujiao.

However, Chu Ming's expression changed, and he said sadly: "It would be great if the two imperial brothers were here..."

As soon as these words came out, the whole house changed color.

"I don't know how Si'er is in Xinjiang...it's such a cold day." The queen said, her voice choked up.

Chu Huang patted the queen on the back, "Okay, I will send someone to send the letter tomorrow."

"Can't you let Si'er come back? Isn't there General Xiao in the territory?" The queen complained sadly.

"You can go back to that place whenever you want? How can our Dali army be stable?" Chu Huang roared sharply.

The queen immediately stared, "It's you who won't let me go back! My Chang'er! That's why I won't come back again!"

"Father, mother!" Chu Ming quickly stood up, "Today is New Year's Eve..."

Chu Huang and the queen fell silent immediately. At a family banquet, everyone had grievances in their hearts and each had their own concerns.

On the carriage back from the palace to the Prince's Mansion, the child in Du Nujiao's arms kept crying.

"Ah, good boy..." Du Nujiao coaxed the child apprehensively, while paying attention to Chu Ming's expression on the other side.

Although Chu Ming looked calm, he could tell that he was not in a good mood, "Next time, just let the servants hold her."

"Yes..." Du Nujiao muttered softly.

Chu Ming then stared at the child's face for a moment, and asked, "I ask you, who does this child look like?"

Du Nujiao didn't dare to raise her head to look at the person opposite, she tightly protected the baby in her arms, "Like... don't know."

"Oh?" Chu Ming raised his tone, as if threatening.

Du Nujiao swallowed, her expression flustered: "Like, like you."

"Yes, like me." Chu Ming smiled in satisfaction, but it sounded more like a mockery to the other party.
