Second Miss was naive and lively, doing whatever she wanted to do. She pulled her mother's lily-white hand and sent it to Lin San's palm, scaring the furen.
"Sly girl, what nonsense are you talking about." Lady Xiao shook her head and chuckled, her face blushing. She calmly withdrew her lily-white hand: "When Xiao Yuruo comes back, you can make up for this etiquette. What replacement? Lin San, don't you think so? "
"Ah, yes, yes." Lin Wanrong quickly nodded and sternly said: "Holding the wrong hand is a very serious problem. I don't intend to make this kind of mistake for the time being. Moreover, with Furen's heavenly fragrance and national beauty, when you stand together with Grand Mistress and Second Miss, it is like a pair of sisters blooming side by side in this garden. How can it be casually replaced? "
He praised the three with one sentence. Second Miss's eyebrows were like a painting. She pulled her mother's hand and smiled: "That is natural. My mother was a famous beauty when she was young. In the past, I don't know how many young masters were infatuated with her. Now, her temperament is even more pleasant, and her beauty is unparalleled. In Jin Ling and the capital, there are many people who admire my mother — you have good taste! "
"You little girl," Madam Xiao's pretty face blushed and she smiled as she patted her daughter's pretty little face, "I had hoped that you would be able to discipline Lin San. Who would have thought that you are not married yet and have already learned seventy to eighty percent of your husband's glib tongue? What will happen in the future?"
Second Miss giggled. She pulled her mother with one hand and Lin San with the other. The joy and shyness between her eyebrows seemed to reflect half the sky red.
"But I don't know where my poor Xiao Yuruo is?" Looking at Yushuang's pretty cheeks. Lady Xiao's heart was filled with sorrow. Two drops of tears floated up in her eyes.
"Mother, don't worry. In less than two days, jiejie will definitely come back." Second Miss whispered a few words in her mother's ear. Lady Xiao wiped her tears and nodded slightly: "If there is a princess who pleads for leniency, that is naturally good. It's just that she's the first princess of China. You two sisters will have to listen to her in the future. Lin San, my two daughters have treated you so well, you must treat them fairly and not be biased. "
"Madam, what are you talking about?" Lin Wanrong laughed heartily, "Ever since I entered the Xiao Family, I've been taken care of by Madam and the two Misses. My heart is filled with gratitude, so how could I neglect them? If you must say that I am biased, I am more biased towards them in my heart. After all, there are 365 days in a year. I spent three hundred days with them. "
These words were not false. Ever since Lin San entered the Xiao Family, he had only gone out a little more recently. Before this, he had always been a good employee. Protecting the young lady and reviving the Xiao Family, in terms of merit, he was number one. Lady Xiao nodded and said with a smile, "If that's the case, I can rest assured. You have a powerful mouth, and people will believe everything you say."
Second Miss heard the madam praise Lin San, and her heart was happy. She said in a sweet voice, "Niangqin, Lin San is honest and reliable. He won't lie. I said that he didn't see anything last night. Now you believe me, right? "
Lin Wanrong shed tears of gratitude. It's still Second Miss who trusts me. I must go to her room more in the future. En, I'll call Grand Mistress while I'm at it. As the old saying goes, when three people walk, I'm sure I'll be 'wet'!
Lady Xiao was stunned. Seeing Lin San snicker with shifty eyes, she couldn't say anything. She bit her red lips and raised her eyebrows. She glared at him angrily, and a bright red color appeared on her cheeks.
He stayed in the Xiao Family for the whole morning. Lin San, who had been encouraged by the madam, naturally did his best and was very diligent in handling the official business that had accumulated over the past few days. Second Miss was personally betrothed by the madam, and her long-cherished wish was fulfilled. Naturally, she stayed by his side with satisfaction, and was always smiling. Lady Xiao was also considerate and thoughtful. From time to time, she would personally bring ginseng soup and bird's nest into the study. She sat on the side and watched the two finish eating. Seeing the two of them happy and loving each other, her heart was filled with indescribable joy and sorrow. The only thing she regretted was that this Lin San was really too much of a playboy. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glare at him fiercely, making Lin Wanrong's whole body go limp.
After eating, he remembered that he was going to join the army. Without delay, he rode a fast horse straight to the army's encampment outside the city gates. Today's weather was good and warm. After riding for a while, before he even neared the battlefield, he heard the rumbling of cannons in front of him, accompanied by the clashing of swords and spears, the neighing of war horses, and the intense shouts of killing entered his ears.
Covering his eyes with one hand, he looked forward and saw the dust and sand billowing on the battlefield. There were ruins everywhere, and the fire was fierce. Thick smoke rose up to the sky, and the dust raised by the war horses covered half the sky. Innumerable soldiers were swiftly galloping and killing, all of them were filled with killing intent, and their faces were covered in thick dust. The scene was no different from a real battle.
With one look, Lin Wanrong understood that the dust, cannons, flames, and smoke were all a simulation of the real battlefield. Among the troops under Li Tai, only a few have actually experienced real battles. This method of training soldiers that was close to real battles was indeed innovative, and it helped to dispel the fear of the soldiers.
Lin Wanrong urged his horse forward. Before he neared the battlefield, he heard the sound of hooves in front, and a group of soldiers who were on guard outside rushed over. A slightly immature voice shouted, "Who's in front, are you a scout from the Tu Jue? Boys, quickly capture this scout — — "
The voice sounded familiar, and Lin Wanrong raised his head to look. He saw a young general in the middle of the group, riding on a horse, high-spirited and vigorous, commanding the soldiers to surround him.
"Little Li, are you the one who wants to capture me?" Lin Wanrong pulled on the reins and laughed loudly.
Li Wuling focused his gaze and saw a white horse in front of him. The rider on the horse had a face that was neither white nor black, and was giggling and waving at him.
Li Wuling was overjoyed, and with a flick of his whip, the yellow horse under him let out a long neigh and galloped forward.
"Lin San — — General Lin, why are you only here now? I've missed you to death. " This Li Wuling had not seen him for a few days, and his face was tanned, and he had grown a bit taller. From a weak child, he had gradually grown into a young man. He galloped to Lin Wanrong's side, and stopped in his horse stance, holding his arm and said excitedly.
Lin Wanrong laughed, "What are you missing me for, I'm not a prostitute in a brothel."
Although Li Wuling was young, he had grown up in the army, and had a fiery temper. Hearing his vulgar words, it was to his liking, and he laughed, "Although you're not a prostitute, you're more fun than a prostitute. A few days ago when you went to Shandong. I begged Hu Bugui to bring me along, but my grandfather didn't allow it. Otherwise, how could I let you snatch away such a good thing like the carp leaping over the dragon gate, I regret — — "
Lin Wanrong laughed involuntarily, this child had a true personality, "You want to find me? That's simple. My house is right next to yours, I've been in and out hundreds of times, but I've never seen you — — "
Li Wuling put his arm around his shoulder, and said embarrassedly, "I originally wanted to find you. But I was stopped by Aunt Xu. She said that you're cruel and unscrupulous, ungrateful, and heinous, and told me not to learn from you. That's right, she raised two vicious dogs, one is called Lin San, the other is called Lin Si. Aunt Xu said that they have the same surname as you, and that those with the surname Lin are not good — — Oh, this is what Aunt Xu said, not me. Brother Lin, do you and Aunt Xu have some sort of grudge? "
Lin Wanrong shuddered, Xu Zhiqing this girl was really considerate. One day when she was walking her dog on the street, she could casually call out to Lin San, and 'I' would jump out barking.
"Well, it's not exactly a marriage. But women, you know, are hard to please, especially outstanding men like me, I'm a fat piece of meat in their eyes. After being coveted for a long time, I'm also in a difficult position. "Lin Wanrong sighed. His expression was bitter.
This person has guts, Li Wuling gave him a thumbs up. In the whole of China, Lin San bro is the first person who dares to talk about my Aunt Xu like that.
"Hey, Little Li, everyone is training in full swing. Why are you the only one wandering around outside?" Lin Wanrong looked at the training field in the distance, which was in full swing, and then looked at Li Wuling.
"I, I — —" Li Wuling's face turned red, and he suddenly pulled his arm. He said emotionally, "Brother Lin, this time you must help me. The army is about to set off, but Grandfather and Aunt won't let me go to the battlefield. Even this patrolling job outside the training field was something I begged for a few days — — "
Lin Wanrong nodded, he understood this matter, Li Tai's two sons had died on the battlefield, Li Wuling was the only bloodline of the Li family, and he was still young, Xu Zhiqing and Li Tai not letting him go was for his sake.
Li Wuling looked at his expression and knew what he was thinking, he immediately became anxious, "Brother Lin, are you looking down on me too? When did the Li family have cowards? Am I someone who is afraid of death — — "
"Who said you are afraid of death?" Lin Wanrong smiled and patted his shoulder, "It's just that your situation is a little special. China's Li family has been guarding the borders for generations, their reputation has been passed down through the ages. Your father and second uncle both died on the battlefield, the Li family is only left with a single heir. Furthermore, you are still young, the flames of war are merciless, if something happens to you, it will be a huge blow to Commander General, to our China! "
Li Wuling smiled coldly, "What can happen to me? At most, I will just die. My father and second uncle can die, why can't I? It's true that I am the only heir of the Li family, but among the millions of soldiers, how many are there? Why can they all die, but I can't? Brother Lin, aren't you also the only heir, you are also the son-in-law of Princess Chu Yun — — "
Lin Wanrong was taken aback, he nodded and smiled, "You sure know how to talk, kid. How old are you?"
"Fifteen!" Li Wuling replied loudly.
Lin Wanrong's face darkened, "I told you to speak the truth!"
His expression was stern, Li Wuling was a little afraid, he quickly lowered his head and said softly, "Thirteen, but I look like fifteen."
Thirteen years old, still a child laborer. Looking at Li Wuling's stubborn eyes, Lin Wanrong sighed, the reputation of a tiger of a general's family was not in vain.
"Brother Lin, I have already discussed with brothers Hu Bugui, Du Xiuyuan, and the others, once you arrive, I will join you. As long as I can go to the frontlines, I will do whatever you ask me to do, I will not cause you any trouble," Li Wuling said carefully, seeing Lin Wanrong pondering.
"You have no ambition," Lin Wanrong scolded angrily, "If you do whatever I ask you to do, then what's the use of having a brain? A person must have their own way of thinking, even more so when leading an army to war, the brain, the brain is the most important. "
Li Wuling responded with an 'oh', suddenly understanding, he was overjoyed, "Brother Lin, you agree?"
"Agree my a * s," Lin Wanrong said with a smile, "I don't even have a place to myself, how can I care about you? Bring me to see the chief general first, we can talk about other things later. "
Li Wuling was also very quick-witted, hearing the faint hint of activity in his words, he immediately beamed with joy and brought him across the drill ground, heading straight to Li Tai's camp.
Along the way, the sounds of killing were incessant, Lin Wanrong looked carefully, he saw many familiar faces among them, they were the child soldiers who commanded the army provisions in the province, now they had been trained into elite soldiers, this made him feel very gratified.
"General Lin — —" An old soldier from Shandong saw him coming, he was instantly overjoyed, he was caught off guard by a wooden sword slash on his shoulder, the pain made him break out in cold sweat.
Lin Wanrong clenched his teeth and coldly snorted, "Don't be distracted in battle. If he's my brother, then chop him to death! "
"Roger!" The old soldier was extremely excited, he even forgot about the pain on his body, swinging his sword over, the soldier opposite him raised his sword to block, but his strength was not enough, the soldier was forced to take two steps back. Her helmet fell to the ground, her silky hair fluttering in the wind.
"Aunt Xu — —" Li Wuling shouted in shock. Lin Wanrong looked up, only to see Miss Xu dressed in a military uniform, her breathing rapid. Her face was slightly pale, her alluring red lips tightly bit, she was glaring at him fiercely, breathing heavily.
"General, do you still want to chop her?" Seeing General Lin in a daze, the soldier quietly asked.
This was a damn good question, Lin Wanrong sneered, his expression fierce, "Chop! Why not? Remember, she is an enemy, not a woman — — look, the enemy is running away! "
Xu Zhiqing picked up her helmet, flew away, and did not look back at all. Li Wuling laughed, "This is good, I can guarantee that when we go back tonight, aunt's Lin San will be whipped again!"
Damn, can't you say it clearly, that Lin San is not this Lin San. Looking at the old soldier's puzzled eyes, Lin Wanrong was sweating profusely, he hurriedly pulled Li Wuling out of the training field, "Little Li, why did Miss Xu come here to fight for no reason? This is great, I almost hurt her! "
"Don't worry. You can't hurt her, this training field was set up by her. " Li Wuling didn't care, "Think about it, Aunt Xu has experienced who knows how many real battles, how could she be scared by such a small scene. I think she saw you, and was a bit distracted, that's why she lost. "
So it turned out that this actual combat training was Xu Zhiqing's idea. Thinking back to the flying rope method she came up with yesterday, Miss Xu's intelligence and wisdom made people look at her in a different light.
Along the way, they naturally saw Hu Bugui, Du Xiuyuan, and the others. These people were born under Lin Wanrong, and were now generals in Lin Wanrong's army, commanding thousands of troops. Lin Wanrong nodded inwardly, this is what it means to make the best use of one's talent.
When they reached Li Tai's camp, Li Wuling tiptoed and whispered, "Big brother Lin, go in, remember, don't forget about me, don't ever, ever, ever forget!"
"Who's making a racket outside the tent?" Li Tai's mighty voice came from inside the tent, Li Wuling stuck out his tongue, turned around, and slipped away, not daring to stay a moment longer.
"Jin Ling Lin San, here to pay a visit to Great General." Lin Wanrong said with a smile, his voice reaching into the tent.
The sound of armor rubbing against each other could be heard, and a group of people hurriedly walked out of the tent. The one walking at the front was a white-haired old general who was as steady as a mountain, it was Li Tai. Behind him were several generals with blades, all of them were extraordinary, and with one look, one could tell that they were capable people.
Seeing him, Li Tai's eyes flashed with deep surprise, "Good, good, you finally came, this old man was not disappointed. I knew that you would definitely come. Everyone, this is the world famous Lin San, Sir Lin, I believe everyone has heard of his deeds. The Imperial Advisor of the Hu, Lu Dongzan, also suffered a loss in his hands, and the White Lotus Sect was almost annihilated by him alone. — — "
"It's an honor to meet you, an honor to meet you!" The generals behind Li Tai hurriedly cupped their fists towards Lin Wanrong, some were respectful, some were disdainful, and so on.
The annihilation of the White Lotus Sect and the bloody battle against the Turks were not on the same level, so it was reasonable for the generals to treat him with contempt. Lin Wanrong didn't mind, he cupped his fists and said with a smile: "This younger brother is ashamed, this younger brother came late because of some family matters. I made you wait for a long time."
Everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to make a sound. Lin San dared to delay the country's affairs because of his family matters, he was simply the first person in the world. But, he didn't even look for a reason, he said it so straightforwardly.
This Lin San did not come easily, Li Tai knew this, so he pulled him into the tent and nodded his head with a smile: "There is no time to serve the country, it's good that you came. Oh, Zhi 'er, Lin San came, you don't want to meet him? "
There was a big map hanging in the tent. The small characters indicated the location of the map. The mountains and lakes were all drawn in different colors. The description was very detailed. A slender figure was standing in front of the map. Her body was delicate and full. Her eyes were focused on the map. She didn't even hear Li Tai's shout.
"Marshal, Miss Xu is thinking about the strategy to defeat the enemy. It's not good to disturb her." A young general came out from the crowd. He was about 30 years old. His body was tall, his skin was white, and his appearance was dignified. He looked at Lin Wanrong and reported to Li Tai in a low voice.
Li Tai nodded his head, then said to Lin Wanrong: "You and Zhi 'er are not outsiders, so it's the same if you meet him later."
Lin Wanrong smiled, but he didn't speak. Miss Xu, who was standing quietly, suddenly opened her mouth and said in a leisurely tone: "Marshal, please expel this person from the tent!"
