Thinking

Qi Si drew out the Poli sword backhand, the sword was as bright as water, and the two faced each other in the wilderness under the strong sunset.

Dai Qin's epee was wide and pitch black, and ordinary people could not swing it at all, but Dai Qin could easily hold it in his hand.

Qisi has a slender figure, and his moves are light and flexible. The stream of Poli sword reflects the sunset, just like thousands of flowers falling in the south of the Yangtze River in spring, but there is endless power inside. Back, the blink of an eye is a few tricks.

"Catch it!" Dai Qin laughed, slashing with his sword horizontally, Qi Si jumped up, spun on his back to avoid the edge of the sword, took advantage of the trend to touch the tip of the sword, and broke away from the sword, and met Dai Qin's epee wrong.

"Okay!" Dai Qin put away the epee.

Qi Si landed steadily, and laughed loudly: "Brother let me go."

Dai Qin smiled, and gestured casually: "Your 'Fang Hua' move is very good, but when you pick it obliquely, you need to use [-]% of your strength, and only [-]% is not enough."

After hearing the words, Qi Si pondered for a moment, then Mao Sai suddenly understood: "Brother made the right call. Master said it before, but he forgot it when he was busy. When practicing swords, he always felt that something was missing."

Dai Qin took him to perfect a few more sword styles, and Qi Si felt that he knew everything, curiously said: "Brother knows my master? You are so familiar with this sword style."

Dai Qin nodded: "We knew each other a few years ago."

Qi Si felt a little regretful that his master's whereabouts had been erratic all this time, and Dai Qin never saw his master again.

"Brother, it doesn't look like he's here for a personal matter." Qi Si looked at Dai Qin's horses, the saddles and bridles of the horses were all the standard used in the army.

Dai Qin nodded: "Bai Yuanfeng is here to help you, the [-] Hongji assassination army has been mobilized to Duanyan Pass along with the Wang army."

Qi Si was surprised: "The army of Hongji assassination is also here?"

Dai Qin looked at him, straightened his collar, and the two of them led the horse for a walk on the quiet plain: "To stop a war with war, soldiers and horses are needed, and that's what happened this time."

The two discussed cooperation matters while walking, until night fell, just returned to the northern camp, and Qi Si took Dai Qin to meet Lu Yingqiu.

Dai Qin covered his face when he was approaching the camp, and Qi Si brought him into the camp, Lu Yingqiu saw Dai Qin, and looked at Qi Si again.Xiao Zhi was also in the tent, and when he saw Dai Qin, his expression paused.

Qi Si and Xiao Zhi left the main account and asked Lu Yingqiu and Dai Qin to discuss matters. Qi Si looked back and said, "I always feel that Lu Yingqiu's attitude towards Dai Qin is a bit strange."

Xiao Zhi looked at Qi Si carefully, with complicated eyes, raised his hand to remove the grass clippings from his hair, and said nothing.

"What about you? What do you think of Dai Qin?" Qi Si suddenly turned his head and asked Xiao Zhi.

Xiao Zhi was stunned by his question, but then asked back: "Have you known him for a long time?"

Qi Si nodded, then shook his head again: "Actually, it's not too long, but we hit it off right away."

Xiao Zhi thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's good."

In the main tent, Lu Yingqiu picked up a jar of aged wine and poured two cups. The rich aroma of the wine overflowed. He put a cup in front of Dai Qin, and raised it himself: "First do it as a respect."

Dai Qin put the epee on the table, sat opposite Lu Yingqiu, silent for a moment, picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank it down.

"Is this the soldier who came to help him?" Lu Yingqiu smiled.

Dai Qin shook his head: "He's fine, thanks to your care all these years. Actually, you don't need my help this time, and you can handle it."

Lu Yingqiu looked a little complicated, looking at the long scar on Dai Qin's face that ran through his left eye and eyebrows: "When are you going to tell him?"

Dai Qin smiled and shook his head: "It's not now anyway." His eyes seemed to pass through the curtain and cast his eyes far away, "Maybe the war is over, and after I have been cleared of all my crimes, I will apologize to him in a down-to-earth manner. .”

Lu Yingqiu hesitated to speak, but finally asked: "I have already missed all these years, why wait any longer? Qisi never cared about those charges."

Dai Qin was silent for a while, then finally laughed at himself and sighed softly: "I care about it. I have deserved the world in my life, but I owe their mother and son. Now he is the only one I miss, and I dare not let him down in the slightest."

"It's been a long time since you saw him... When did you recognize him?" Lu Yingqiu drank another glass.

Dai Qin thought for a while: "I didn't think much about it at first, but I remembered that the sixth prince was weak and couldn't practice martial arts. When I found out that his sword mage was from Chongyi, I guessed it seven or eight points."

Lu Yingqiu said: "I failed to protect him, but it was the safest way to keep him in Yan."

Dai Qin waved his hand: "You did the right thing, more experience is the best."

"Why didn't you come back to the court all these years? Even though Zhaowu Xuanjia was dismantled, no one betrayed you." Lu Yingqiu hesitated for a long time, and finally said.

Dai Qin smiled faintly: "My crime has come to a conclusion. It is not such a simple matter for a dead sinner to come back to life. Wouldn't it be worthless if you were implicated as well?"

When Lu Yingqiu heard this, he didn't say anything, he brought up the wine jar and filled it up for each other again, and the two drank the whole jar of aged wine one cup at a time.

Dai Qin pushed the wine cup aside, and Lu Yingqiu did the same, the two went to the map to look at it, Dai Qin pointed out: "The Battle of Duanyan Pass back then was no different from now, it was still dangerous, Great Liang guarded the pass, easy to defend but difficult to attack , very easy to counterattack."

Lu Yingqiu frowned: "Back then it was because of plotting against you that the situation took a turn for the worse. Now that Qisi has thoroughly investigated the old case, we won't give them another chance."

Dai Qin didn't care about the old things back then, instead he smiled heartily: "My son is doing well", and said, "But the situation of the war back then was not all due to those insidious tricks, Duanyan Pass must not be relaxed here, and the pass to the west must be guarded .”

Lu Yingqiu nodded: "Yes."

After discussing fortifications for nearly half an hour, Dai Qin was about to leave the main tent, Lu Yingqiu had mixed feelings in his heart, and said: "General."

Dai Qin's back froze, he just waved his hands, said nothing, opened the curtain and strode away.

Qi Si flipped through the letter in the tent, sorting out the recent actions of the great prince of Great Liang, while Xiao Zhi discussed with him from time to time, and after a while, Xiao Zhi seemed to hear the movement outside the tent, so he got up, hoping Si was still reading the newspaper, didn't notice, just asked: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Zhi didn't say anything, before Qi Si finished speaking, Dai Qin lifted the curtain and came in, Xiao Zhi nodded slightly at him, and went out.

Qi Si looked up, saw Dai Qin coming in, and smiled brightly: "Brother."

Dai Qin also smiled, came over to glance at the newspaper in Qi Si's hand, reached out to take it and threw it aside: "What's so interesting about this, come here."

Qi Si followed him to the felt blanket in the middle of the tent, and the two sat on the floor. Dai Qin took the map and spread it out on the spot, drawing an arc along the city gate north of the northern border with his fingers: "Four years ago, Great Liang and Yan Formed an alliance, but in fact Yan’s 20 troops were just going through the motions, and Great Liang set up a bureau at Duanyan Pass to cut off the 15 Jin soldiers from the rear.”

Cooperating with the map, what Dai Qin said is clear at a glance, and Qi Si is also very familiar with it, but he has always been a little puzzled: "Rui Chu must have known Great Liang's intentions at that time."

Dai Qin nodded: "When the 15 Zhaowu Xuanjia left the camp with Ruichu, Jingzhou was supposed to be responsible for the food and grass, and it only needed to be replenished within half a month. movement."

Qi Si felt a chill in his heart: "This is treason."

Dai Qin laughed mockingly: "At that time, the northern border was under the control of Jingzhou city guards. Rui Chu kept the army's morale stable and kept quiet. But before he could solve this matter, he was plotted against, and the truth could no longer be revealed to the world. It’s also a coincidence.”

Qi Si knew that Daiqin was well-informed and well-informed, and it was not difficult to know these secrets like the palm of his hand, but after hearing this explanation, he felt even more uncomfortable: "Rui Chu alone has committed all the crimes. , these people can’t escape.”

Dai Qin didn't say anything, just looked at Qi Si carefully, and took a while to look away, and his heart calmed down.

He didn't bring up the past anymore, but just gave pointers on the map, briefly and clearly explained to Qi Si the series of recent actions of the eldest prince, and analyzed the motives along the way.

Qi Si only felt that Dai Qin's words were concise, one sentence could get the point across, the situation became clear instantly, and all the meditation layouts were presented in front of him one by one, without hindrance, and he couldn't help but admire.

"Brother, you are from the rivers and lakes, but you are also a good talent in the army. Have you always been in the Hongji Squadron?" Seeing that he had collected the map, Qi Si asked in a very relaxed manner, leaning against the couch.

Dai Qin shook his head: "I haven't been in the army for a few years, and Yuan Bing is very good at training and arranging troops. I go back to help him from time to time, especially when he is not around."

Qi Si was a little embarrassed, when Yuan Feng was not in Great Liang, he usually came looking for him.

Dai Qin saw clearly, half-jokingly said: "Do you really like him?"

Qi Si was almost choked, Dai Qin was also a teacher, a friend, and a family member to him, he always felt a little embarrassed to say such things, as if facing Lu Yingqiu, he always felt that he should be an obedient child, but Dai Qin let him Relax a lot.

Dai Qin laughed: "There's no need to be embarrassed, I just hope you live comfortably, as long as it's sincere, it's fine."

Qi Si felt warm, looked at Dai Qin sitting next to him, and asked, "Brother said in the past that he had a family, so that woman must be very beautiful and gentle."

Dai Qin turned his head to look at Qi Si, with a gentle expression on his tough face: "Of course, I will never forget her wherever I go."

Qi Si smiled: "A man of temperament."

Just like the last time Dai Qin came, Qi Si fell asleep while chatting with him, Dai Qin carried him back to the couch and covered him with a quilt, and fell asleep peacefully on the other side of the couch.

Before dawn, he woke up on time, touched the cheek of Qi Si who was still sleeping, covered his face with a scarf, and left the military tent with his heavy sword.

Xiao Zhi was just outside, Dai Qin looked at him for a moment, and said: "The Xiao family has successors."

Xiao Zhi saluted: "I didn't expect to see you."

Dai Qin smiled faintly: "I should thank you for coming to help him."
