"Old Sun, what do you think about the matter of disarmament?" "It's not that simple." "Well, go and call them all, I want to hear everyone's opinions." "Okay, Lord." "By the way, Ning Nan also called."

After a while, about 20 military advisers and generals above the government in Beijing were seated in the front hall.

"Presumably everyone has received the order to disarm. Today I summoned everyone to discuss this matter." "Master Hou, this is an imperial order, and we can only follow it. It's just the frontline war. Those who are far away in high positions don't even know!" A bearded, seven-foot-tall, broad-shouldered man said angrily. "Yanba, since you know this is an imperial decree, don't talk nonsense!" Master Hou severely criticized. "Hey, Lord Hou, you also know that Lao Yan and I have nothing to hide. This disarmament has cut 100 million people at once. I don't know about the war in the east, so I just say we are in the southwest. The barbaric land has always been dishonest. Today, we will grab the border a little bit. Grain, grab a little rice in the city tomorrow. I am so angry that I almost handed the memorial to the Holy Master, but there is no movement in the palace, and we can only play with them. After a long time, I won’t give them some Look at the color, I'm afraid it will grow the ambition of the barbarian!" "Old Yan, you are still young. Those southern barbarians in southern Xinjiang have not moved for more than four years, and obediently pay tribute to the court. During the two years that the Marquis has been working in Beijing In the future, they should take some action, but they didn't. If you don't grasp the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, there may be a deeper conspiracy!" Chu Zhongtian stroked his beard and said.

"Brother Chu, do you have any news?" Old Zhou asked. "Our informants in Nanning came back a few days ago and said that everything in the south is business as usual, and they came to deliver some tea. These are trained informants, and there may be other reasons for sending tea. Sure enough, there is something hidden in the tea. The briefing said that there was an insider in our intelligence network in the south, and a large area was paralyzed." Lao Zhou was surprised, "Which side are you talking about paralyzed?" "Exactly what you think." "I'm afraid this is not an easy thing. "Who said it wasn't?" Chu Zhongtian continued, "The old informant we have raised for ten years has rebelled. This is not a good thing for us. It is very important. I heard that Lord Hou is going back to Beijing I came here in person. Who would have thought that, on the first day I came, I received an order to disarm the troops."

"The layoff of our 20 soldiers is not much. I'm afraid that it will not be so easy to send troops to battle in the future." Army Master Gongsun sighed. "Mr. Gongsun, what's your opinion?" Lord Hou asked. "Disarmament is to announce to the world that our frontiers are stable and the government is stable. Once the soldiers return to their homeland and see the old lady, who would like to go to the army to suffer. The day before we raised our troops, we had to call them again. The recruits have to be retrained again. I'm afraid they have lost the opportunity to take the initiative." "I also see this, my grandson. The son saw it that day. It was the opinion put forward by Prince Yan, and the ministers who echoed it, sir. Say a third."

"It's his mother's fault that literati are short-sighted!" Zhonglang Jiangyi scolded fiercely.Old Mr. Sun Lang continued, "Yes, after a long time of ease, it is inevitable to feel that it is a mistake to raise troops. I have not had a major war for more than ten years. People's sense of urgency has also declined." "Old Sun, what do you say What are you talking about, the blood that our frontier soldiers have shed all these years has been fed to dogs?" Yan Ba ​​said arrogantly. "General Yan, you are in the frontier and feel the same as the soldiers. But has the flames of war spread to the capital? Are the people panicked by the flames of war? Not at all! The people live and work in peace and contentment, as the saying goes.

Hou Ye looked gloomy, and asked, "What did the other generals in the court say?" "King Jinnan has not been in the capital for a long time, and he still did not attend the annual banquet this year. The rest of the old generals of the Yue Kingdom fought against Prince Yan on the spot, and the rest of them The general didn't say a word, but the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Lord Qin, came out and said something inappropriate. The rest of the people echoed Prince Yan's call for disarmament." Cheng Ning Nanhou replied aside.

"The Duke of Yue, the old general, spent his whole life in the army. The stability of the northern border for more than 20 years was built by many people. Naturally, he will be angry. Qin Da is upright in nature and has his family and the world in mind. I can predict his disagreement." Master Hou Cheng touched the tea cover and said. "General Wei, cut off [-] soldiers from your hands. General Yan, cut [-] soldiers from you too." What Yan Ba ​​wanted to say was suppressed by Lord Hou with a look. "Tell the soldiers you sent back to your hometown that if there is a day in the future when gunpowder is everywhere, our Chengping Army will still welcome you back."

After the meeting was over, "It's time for Ning Nan to venture out." Hou Ye said to Sun Lao and Lao Zhou. "Where do you want him to go? He went to southern Xinjiang with you when he was four years old, and returned to Beijing when he was nine. Where do you want your son to go now?" Lao Zhou seemed to disagree. "You boy, you are so kind-hearted when you become a father." Master Hou joked. "Let him go to Jianghu." Elder Sun said from the side. "Exactly, the one who knows my heart is Mr. Sun." "Nowadays, war breaks out at any time, my son..." "What about him, let me ask you, why did the war break out today and tomorrow?" "Of course it doesn't matter so much, don't say more There are still three or five years for An Sheng." Old Zhou replied. "Then let him go." Lao Zhou knew that no one could stop Master Hou from making up his mind. "When your son grows up, are you willing to let him go?" Master Hou asked suddenly. "It's... still far away, let's talk about it later." Lao Zhou replied vaguely. "A son is not a daughter, and you can't raise him without leaving home." Lao Zhou nodded. Seeing that Lao Zhou didn't answer, Lord Hou patted Lao Zhou's head, "You're still young."

When Changming and Dongchen heard that the son was going to Jianghu, they packed their bags excitedly.Cheng Hele also packed a small burden excitedly.As soon as Cheng Ningnan opened the door, he saw three people, one big and one small, all standing neatly at the door with a bundle, laughing for no reason and leaning back and forth. "Then little Douding, where are you going?"Cheng Hele replied happily.Cheng Ningnan grabbed Cheng Hele by the collar of his back shirt and lifted him aside, "If your father knows that I'm taking you away, I'm afraid I'll be hunted down by him wherever I go." "Just know!" Lao Zhou didn't know when He popped out and stuffed Cheng Ningnan with a small bag of unknown items, "Here, it will definitely be useful on the road. Don't rush to look at it, and open it later, it will be a good bag." Cheng Ningnan stuffed the things Put into the chest pocket of your clothes and pat your chest, "Old brother Zhou, it's ready." "Be careful on the road, and take the horse with the bay red horse I gave you from southern Xinjiang the year before last." "Okay" "Let's go Say goodbye to your mother and your father before." "Okay." Cheng Ningnan has been brought up by Cheng Lao Zhou since he was born, and Cheng Lao Zhou is the adopted son of Lao Hou Ye.Originally, he should have called him elder brother, but Cheng Ningnan was unruly by nature, but he still respected his picked elder brother from the bottom of his heart.

"My son, take all the clothes that mother brought you. These are clothes for Changming and Dongchen. Be careful on the road. If you can live in a tree, don't stay in a hotel, and if you can walk on a path, don't go. Dalu, if you can fight with people, don’t move your mouth. Otherwise, how would you know where there is an expert.” Cheng Ningnan thought he heard it wrong, why didn’t he realize that his mother was such an unreliable person before Woolen cloth.Old Hou Ye Cheng snickered while listening, Madam stared at Old Hou Ye and immediately fell silent. "Ahem, Nan'er. If you encounter an emergency on the road, you can solve it by yourself. If you are too far away from home, you can't help me. If you don't have any money, you can earn it by yourself. I don't know where to send it to you as a father. The conditions on the road Difficulty, such things as reading must not be interrupted. Don’t be harsh on yourself in terms of diet, earthworms and locusts are edible. You go out to remember the time, don’t go home too early, it’s better to come back after three or five years. If you see If you see a girl you like, then..." Suddenly the boy in his dream appeared in his mind, and Cheng Ningnan immediately interrupted Lord Hou, "Father, I know what you and mother mean Now, I will be alone. If Changming and Dongchen can’t stand it, I will let them come back, and I will definitely wait for three to five years before returning.” I saw Lord Hou and his wife looking satisfied as my son has grown up. Qi Qi nodded.

After bidding farewell to his parents, Cheng Ningnan got on his horse. As soon as he reached the city gate, he heard someone behind him shouting, "Yun Lang! Yun Lang! Stay here." It was Yan Xi, Qin Hao, and Qin Hao's bodyguard, Chu. inspired.

"Disrespect and disrespect, to bother the two young masters to come and see them off." Cheng Ningnan said politely, but his eyes only fell on Qin Hao. "How does Zique know that I'm leaving the city today?" "It's me," Yan Xi rushed to answer, "I asked a young man about that day..." "Okay," Cheng Ningnan interrupted Yan Xi.Qin Hao said: "How long have you been here before you return?" "It's five years at most, and three years at least." "Why did Lord Hou let you go at this time?" "What about this time? What about then? Now the world returns to its heart, and the world is at peace. Just take this time to walk around the rivers and lakes and see the world. Why don't Zique go with me?" Qin Hao's expression moved slightly when he heard this, but he also said seriously: "A good man has ambitions in all directions, so it's better for Yun Lang to go to the rivers and lakes to avoid the bloody storm of the court Hearing this, Yan Xi's face turned red, and Qin Hao continued, "Since ancient times, there has been a master of speech among the people, and Yun Lang has to make more efforts in this trip. If there is any difficulty, please send me a message at any time, and I will not hesitate to do so." "Your son With Que’s words, I dare to go for a walk, little brother Tianya Luyuan, and I dare to go for a little brother, Daoshanhuohai.” After speaking, Cheng Ningnan saluted immediately, “Farewell!” “Take care on the road! Have a good journey!”

On the other side, Changming rode on the horse and looked at Chu Qifa excitedly, "Brother Chu, I will often write to you along the way, you..." "Changming, I will definitely reply to your letter at any time. Take care." The two shook hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes.Dong Chen stood aside, "Ahem, Changming is leaving!"

The sun is dazzling, and if there is too little, everything will be difficult to survive; if there is too much, it can actually make the capital be on guard.

The handsome young man is not like a child when he was young, nor does he have the plans of an adult.
