Fake Taoists in the world of film and television

Chapter 211 Angry Meng Tian

The chatting time always passed quickly, and before one knew it, the sun had already shone brightly, and Gao Yao's mouth was already parched.

Fortunately, although the experiences during this period were rich, they did not involve much involving Yi Xiaochuan and Lu Su. Gao Yao finally ended his conversation and immediately picked up the teacup and drank it all.

"It's getting late. I've sent someone to prepare meals. You two will wait for a while."

Before Yi Buhuo and Gao Yao could think of what to say next to get closer, Lu Gong had already spoken, and what he said hit their hearts.

"Thank you Mr. Lu for your hospitality."

After Lu Gong and Lu Pheasant finished reading Lu Su's autographed letter, the food was served.

Seemingly sensing that the two young men, Yi Buhuo and Gao Yao, were more reserved, Lu Gong kept initiating the conversation and Lu Zhi joined in, but it didn't stop him from being silent.

A meal can be regarded as a joy for the guests and the host, and the Lu family's business is too big to drive people away after the meal, so they specially arranged a room for the two of them.

"I'm exhausted. I've never spoken more in my life than today."

When Yi Buhuo walked into Gao Yao's room, he collapsed on the chair and groaned like a puddle of mud.

"I think both Lu Gong and Lu Pheasant have a good impression of you. The first step is barely a success. Don't give up halfway. When Lu Pheasant sees you like you are now, I'm afraid he will not fall in love with you even if he commits suicide in a well. "

"How can I be so bad, can't I still handle a chick with my cooking skills?"

Gao Yao said disdainfully: "Stop saying alarmist things. Of course I know that I can't expose my true nature. There are no outsiders here."

"You also know your own advantages. You will cook the dinner. You must impress them!"

Yi Buhuo looked like a dog-headed strategist, and he seemed to have everything in his mind. Even senior officials were infected by his confidence and patted their chests to confirm.

"I know what to do, just wait and see!"

"Then I wish you success!"

Yi Buhuo said nothing and turned to leave.

Just as he was about to return to his room, he saw Lu Pheasant standing not far away looking at him, as if waiting for him.

"Mr. Yi."

Lu Pheasant shouted, feeling something in his heart. When was the last time he saw that person named Yi?
He should be living happily with his sister now, right?

"So it's Miss Lu, is she here to see me? I wonder what's going on?"

There was confusion on Yi Buhuo's face. He had already said what needed to be said before. Did Lu Pheasant still have any questions to ask?
"Mr. Yi, I came here specifically to thank you. Thank you for saving my sister, otherwise..."

Although Lu Pheasant and Lu Su fell in love with Yi Xiaochuan at the same time, she didn't hate her sister, not to mention that now that the deal was settled, she didn't even have a chance to compete.

If there are no accidents, I am afraid that this love can only be hidden in my heart forever and be recalled in my spare time as an experience worth remembering.

"You're welcome, this is what I should have done."

Thinking that his appearance had changed Lu Su's originally difficult ending, Yi Buhuo felt that it was worth his while.

"I only have this sister. If something happens to her, I don't know how sad I will be. You can regard saving people as your duty, but to the Lu family, it is a great kindness that cannot be repaid. Please accept it from Lu. Pheasant bows!"

Lu Pheasant's sincere words were followed by a deep bend.

There are differences between men and women, so Yi Buhuo just pretended to do so and did not hide away. Although he was tired of the rules of always saluting, he would not feel that he could not bear it.

Sometimes people really can’t express their deepest gratitude in any intuitive way except by saluting.

"Miss Su Su's life should not have been cut off. Everything is God's will. If you want to thank God, thank God for your good life. You can't bear the loss of a young life."

After Yi Buhuo comforted him, he smacked his lips and was speechless.

Speaking of it, I really don't seem to have much experience chatting with women, most of them are purposeful, and I lead the topics by myself.

And to be suddenly approached to thank him like this, not only he was caught off guard, but also he was at a loss for words.

If you are single, you must start to show your knowledge and accomplishments to get close to Lu Pheasant. But the problem is that you are here to be a matchmaker, how can you interfere?

It is precisely because I am a family man that I feel a little restrained at times like this. How can a man and a woman be together without purpose? If I say a few more words, I am afraid I will lose control of my mouth again.

"Miss Lu, thank you. I won't disturb your rest."

Lu Pheasant seemed to have really made a special trip to thank him. After a few words, there was no sound. Yi Buhuo apologized and prepared to leave.

The purpose of coming here has been achieved, and Lu Zhi has also met him. He will find a reason to stay with Gao early tomorrow morning and leave first.

……

The Meng family army, which had been on a long expedition, was far away from the territory of Daqin and was stationed in an unknown small city.

Since the First Emperor made up his mind to expand, the Meng family army, which was originally used to deal with Rong Di, immediately launched its entire army. The elite men who showed their full strength and no longer hid their clumsiness finally showed their fangs and defeated Rong Di.

However, as we go deeper and deeper, we swallow more and more territory, and the battle line is stretched too long, which inevitably makes us a little tired, and rest is essential.

Coach Meng Tian was in charge of the Chinese Army and left Yi Xiaochuan alone after the meeting.

Although he didn't want to admit it, it was unavoidable no matter where he was. Meng Tian had identified him as Meng Yi, so his status rose sharply. Although he had not made any achievements, he had become a senior official, and he also had some people.

However, Yi Xiaochuan's current condition is not good. He doesn't care about the rumors in the army, but he can't do anything about it.

He originally thought about going to the battlefield and establishing himself as a soldier, but after a few battles, his mentality almost collapsed.

What great achievements, what immortality? When the blood splashed on his face, the familiar face that was chatting and laughing one moment was frozen forever, and all his fantasies about the battlefield flew away with the sound of killing.

The kindness in his heart prevented him from being ruthless enough to swing his sword. He didn't want to kill anyone, even if it was his enemy!

Everyone has parents, wife and children, and they are the future of the family. Just for a word from the superior, blood will be spilled on the battlefield and death will be silent!

During this period of time, he couldn't eat well or sleep well, and his mind was filled with blame for the world, disappointment with the system, and resistance to murder...

"what's up?"

Thinking that it would be another "brotherly" heart-to-heart talk as usual, Yi Xiaochuan was already prepared to remain silent, but Meng Tian had a serious look on his face.

"Ogawa takes the order!"

"exist!"

Yi Xiaochuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and saluted with clasped fists.

"Ahead of us is Tu'an. I received news not long ago that King Tu'an is preparing to surrender the country and will send Princess Yushu to Daqin for marriage."

"Your Majesty has agreed to this matter and ordered me to send someone to greet Princess Yushu and Jiangbiao."

Seeing Yi Xiaochuan's puzzled expression, Meng Tian sighed and continued: "Although you are my younger brother, everyone in the Meng family army is my younger brother. I have violated the taboo by promoting you."

"But precisely because you are my brother!"

Meng Tian said with a serious face: "I will leave this matter to you. You don't need to kill people and you can suppress the voices below. Don't let me down!"

"You want me to go for gold plating?" Yi Xiaochuan asked in surprise.

"You haven't done anything yet and are timid. If it weren't for the fact that you are my brother, you would have been dealt with by military law long ago. This is your last chance."

Meng Tian's words didn't have any warmth at all, and even contained a murderous aura, but there was still a hint of concern in his eyes.

"I really didn't expect that the real battlefield is so cruel. Why do we have to fight and kill? Can't we live in harmony?"

Yi Xiaochuan's face was full of frustration, and he looked downcast.

"Bullshit!"

Meng Tian couldn't help but stand up as he slapped the table, and said angrily: "Live in harmony?"

"We would rather live in harmony, but others don't want to!"

"Do I want to see the brothers who get along day and night die tragically under the knife of the enemy? I don't want them to live a stable life? I also want them to work hard at sunrise!"

"is it possible?"

Meng Tian slumped down helplessly and continued: "Do you know how many resources Rong Di plunders every year? How many people are killed?"

"Without us, more people would die for no reason, more families would be broken up, and wives and children would be separated!"

"Only by keeping them out of the borders of Da Qin, lest they kill them all! Only then can Da Qin be stable, and the people be safe!"

"If you don't want more people to die, then kill all those inhumane aliens and scare them so that they don't dare to invade our Daqin border again. Then there will be no war and we can live in harmony!"

Yi Xiaochuan lowered his head and did not refute. Maybe even he was convinced, but being convinced did not mean that he had no opinions. The three views he had cultivated for more than 20 years could not be broken in just a few sentences.

"Xiao Chuan."

Meng Tian's tone softened, his eyes were no longer as sharp as a knife, and he said sincerely: "I know you are kind-hearted, and I can understand that you don't want your hands to be stained with blood, but you are my brother and you will take over the Meng family army in the future. "

"You are really too indecisive. Let's take this opportunity to lead troops to Tu'an. Don't just look at the things in front of you. You must develop a sense of the overall situation."

"Momentary sacrifices are unavoidable. As long as our sacrifices can bring peace, I have no regrets!"

"Even if you have to send your brothers to death with your own hands?"

Yi Xiaochuan stared at him with burning eyes. He knew that there would be peace in the future, and that it was all achieved through the sacrifices of these people.

But he no longer feels it from the words, each of these dead people is in front of him, each one is a living person!

"What you call the overall situation is to watch these brothers die and gamble on a future that no one is sure of?"

"It seems you still can't turn the corner."

Meng Tian's face turned cold and he shouted: "Come here! Take him down and lock him up, then release him when he figures it out."

Two soldiers rushed in from the door, one on the left and one on the right, holding Yi Xiaochuan's shoulders and pulling him down regardless of his struggle.

Looking at the empty hall, Meng Tian smiled helplessly, "Xiaochuan, whether you admit it or not, you are still my brother. Our Meng family has been soldiers for generations, and the only thing we know how to do is go into battle to kill the enemy. How come you are such a variable? "

"I believe you will understand my painstaking efforts sooner or later, so that I can safely hand over the Meng Family Army to you..."

Yi Xiaochuan sat cross-legged on the bed and leaned against the wall, recalling Meng Tian's every word absentmindedly.

Is it really his fault?
Is there really no other way to usher in peace?
There are so many armies in Da Qin, and I just want to protect this small one. Will this also change history?
Although he was locked up, he was not sent to a prison, but an empty room with soldiers guarding the outside. Apart from not being able to move around at will, Yi Xiaochuan was not very sad or scared.

This gave him enough time to think and sort out what he had seen and heard during this period.

"People here have never seen the prosperity of [-], they don't have the concept of equality for everyone, and they take human life too lightly..."

Yi Xiaochuan looked up at the empty roof, his eyes wandering.

"It would be great if Lao Gao was here. He must have something in common with me. This place is really too dangerous. It's not suitable for people like us to survive. I really hope to go back!"

"Maybe I'm really not suitable for the battlefield. My previous ambitions were all delusions. It's better to keep out of sight and leave with Su Su tomorrow."

"Brother Yi!"

While Yi Xiaochuan was thinking aimlessly, he heard someone calling him outside the window. He turned around and saw a sneaky head showing up.

"Three treasures?"

"It's me. Brother Yi, I brought you roast chicken. Come and eat it."

Sanbao was rescued by Yi Xiaochuan outside, and he followed him wholeheartedly. Even if he entered the military camp, he followed him without hesitation, without any fear.

"Sambo, why are you here?"

Yi Xiaochuan laughed and said: "You don't have to be careful, just walk in through the main entrance. This is not a dragon's den or a tiger's den, and they have not restricted my personal freedom. It's just that I don't want to go out."

"Is that so?"

Sanbao scratched his head naively, and instead of walking through the door, he nimbly turned over and ran in through the window, smiling and handing over the packed roast chicken.

Seeing his naive appearance, Yi Xiaochuan's mood improved a lot. All the heavy thoughts just now disappeared, and the relaxed smile returned to his face.

"I heard that General Meng ordered you to be locked up. You don't know how worried I was. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to eat well, so I bought roast chicken and brought it here."

"Thank you, Sanbao, you think so much."

Yi Xiaochuan unceremoniously pulled out a chicken leg and started to chew on it. The two of them chatted and laughed, which made the atmosphere much more relaxed.

"I'm going to tell Meng Tian tomorrow that I can't do this and I won't do it anymore!"

They were all on their own, Yi Xiaochuan had no scruples about what he said, and San Bao was not the kind of person to talk too much. He told all of his depression today.

"what?"

Sanbao said with a bitter face: "Brother Yi, what will I do if you leave? They can't do anything to you, but I can't leave. If I'm caught, I'll definitely be beaten to death with sticks."

Looking at Sanbao who looked uncomfortable, Yi Xiaochuan was about to make a joke but suddenly stopped.

If he leaves, will the Three Treasures have no protection, can they survive on this cruel battlefield?
He was loyal to him and risked his life to follow him here. Could he just leave and ignore him?

Do I still have a conscience?
Even if it is for the Three Treasures and for the brothers under his command, he cannot just leave like this. Since he cannot save everyone, the people around him must let them survive!
