The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 67
[Chapter 67 A day full of energy]
After being silent for a long time, Sun Teng frowned and waved his hand: “Go and wait in front of General Fang’s tent. If anything happens, report it to me immediately.”
The soldier bowed and said: ” Yes, General!”
After saying that, he slowly retreated.
After he left, a captain asked in confusion: “What did this boy want to do, why did he go straight to the camp?”
Another captain thought for a while and replied: “Did he give up on himself because he knew that he was not strong enough to compete with the general? ?”
“It’s not impossible.”
Listening to the discussions among his lieutenants, Sun Teng became inexplicably depressed.
He waved his hand and said: “You all go down, I, the general, will be alone.”
Several captains looked at each other, all stood up, bowed and left.
In Nuo Da’s tent, Sun Teng took out the wine glass from under the table, poured a glass of wine, took a sip, and said to himself: “Fang Xiu, what on earth are you going to do?” When
Fang Xiu woke up, it was already past midnight. .
He opened his hazy eyes and looked around, feeling a little confused.
where is this?
After a moment, he came back to his senses.
It turns out that he is still on duty in the palace.
It’s getting dark and it’s time to go home.
He stretched, yawned, got up from the blanket, and walked straight out of the tent.
Outside the tent, a soldier stood upright. When he saw Fang Xiu, he hurriedly saluted and said respectfully, “I’ve seen the general!”
Fang Xiu waved his hand and walked forward.
The camp where the Yulin Guards were stationed was not far from the palace gate, and there was no need to lead the way. Following the memory of when he came, he left the palace alone.
Outside the palace, a carriage has been waiting for a long time.
After getting on the carriage and taking a look at the majestic palace wall, Fang Xiu couldn’t help but sigh: “It’s another day full of energy.” It
was already dark, why didn’t there be any movement from General Zuo Zhonglang?
The calmer it is, the more uneasy the captains feel.
After getting off duty, they all gathered at Sun Teng’s camp.
Sun Teng looked at them and asked, “Did Fang Xiu come to see you today?”
All the captains shook their heads.
A trace of surprise appeared on Sun Teng’s face, and he asked in disbelief: “Not one?”
The lieutenants looked at each other in disbelief.
No matter what, he was also General Zuo Zhonglang. On the first day he took office, he just stayed in the camp?
It’s really strange.
Sun Teng thought for a while and said, “Who is guarding outside Fang Xiu’s tent today? Let him come over. I, the general, have something to ask him.”
After a while, the soldier from before walked into the tent and said respectfully: “I have seen you, general.” “
Sun Teng looked at him and asked, “Do you know what General Fang did today?”
The soldier replied, “General Fang just stayed in the camp until dark.”
Sun Teng said again .
Asked: “Then where is he now?”
The soldier thought for a while and said: “I just saw General Fang walking outside the camp. He must have gone home.”
When they returned home
, all the captains looked at each other, and they could see it in each other’s eyes. A look of surprise.
Sun Teng also looked surprised and waved his hand: “Go down.”
“Yes, General.”
The soldier felt a little confused, but did not ask any more questions and turned around and left the camp.
After he left, everyone in the camp fell into silence.
For a long time, no one spoke.
Finally, Sun Teng frowned and waved his hand: “You all go down too.”
A captain raised his head, looked at Sun Teng, and asked: “General, how should Fang Xiu, a low-ranking person, deal with this?”
Sun Teng was silent. After a moment, they slowly uttered a sentence: “Stay unchanged to cope with all changes!”
In fact, in just a few days, they knew that they were thinking too much.
General Fang Zhonglang actually only slept in the camp every day.
He slept from morning to night. Occasionally, soldiers would bring hot tea and they would catch him writing a book.
Apart from that, there was no other movement.
The captains had already made adequate preparations when they received the news, but at this moment, they were of no use at all.
As for Sun Teng, he was even more depressed than before.
I thought that such a young boy, at such a young and vigorous age, would definitely cause some trouble.
At that time, just a little provocation can cause conflicts between him and everyone.
As time goes by, someone will definitely become dissatisfied and complain to His Majesty.
His Majesty was furious for a moment, and maybe the position of General Zuo Zhonglang would be replaced by his own.
But
General Fang Zhonglang did nothing.
If you don’t do things, you won’t do wrong things, and you won’t have conflicts with the captains.
It is a blessing for anyone to have a superior who doesn’t find faults all day long and doesn’t look for trouble.
Not to mention others, even the few close lieutenants under him gradually changed their attitude towards Fang Xiu from hostility at the beginning to ignorance.
Sun Teng watched all this happen, but was unable to do anything. He had to stay in the camp all day long, drinking to drown his sorrows.
Time flies by like a fleeting moment.
Before I knew it, it was already half a month later.
A warm spring breeze blew by, and the last bit of chill in the air dissipated without a trace.
Everywhere is full of life and prosperity.
The willow trees in Fang Mansion’s courtyard have sprouted a lot of buds.
Today is a day of rest.
As usual, Fang Xiu moved a Taishi chair and sat in the courtyard, basking in the sun comfortably.
In a yard next door.
Xiu’er and the little maids of Fang Mansion held a copy of “Nie Xiaoqian” and read it with gusto.
Reading somewhere, a little maid had a look of surprise on her face and blurted out: “Nie Xiaoqian is actually a ghost, no wonder she only appears when it gets dark.”
Another little maid heard this and asked, “You guys think, in this world Are there any ghosts?”
Xiu’er somehow suddenly remembered the scene of the young master picking up the porcelain piece and putting it in his mouth without hesitation on the night of the Lantern Festival.
After thinking about it, she whispered: “Probably not.”
The little maid looked at her and asked: “How do you know?”
Xiu’er’s pretty face turned red and she whispered: “Because the young master said no.
” , several little maids looked at Xiu’er with different eyes.
“I noticed that since Sister Xiu’er has been with the young master, she always carries the young
master with her in everything she says.” “Yes, yes, the young master said no, and the young master said yes. It’s all about the young master. Sister Xiu’er, do you like the young master?”
“Sister, young master ?”
He is so handsome and knows so much, who doesn’t like the young master?”
All of a sudden, the little maids started to tease Xiu’er.
When Xiu’er heard these words, her pretty face turned red, lowered her head, and stopped talking.
The little maids played around for a while. Seeing that Xiu’er didn’t speak, they all felt bored and turned to discuss the Zhuxuan Zhai in the south of the city.
“Have you heard? Zhuxuanzhai will publish a new book recently. It seems to be called “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”.”
“A new book is coming out? “The Romance of the West Chamber” and “Nie Xiaoqian”. I haven’t finished reading them yet. This Zhuxuanzhai Zhai is so amazing, he was able to print out so many good books in less than half a month.”
