Chapter 490 I'm Comforting Her

The sound made by the wind passing through the gaps in the withered grass is very subtle, but if the strong wind sweeps across the grass, the sound is like a low-pitched beast roaring. There is a mountain not far from Liyang City. It is the end of autumn, and the wind blows from the north Come and walk close to the ground, the grass clippings and fallen leaves and the disgusting sand are rolled up.

Li Xian didn't plan to stay in Liyang for a long time, so he didn't mobilize his troops to build a strong camp.A circle of antlers was surrounded outside the camp, several watchtowers were built, and no wooden city was built. After nightfall, countless torches were lit in the camp, and the whole camp was as bright as day.

From the day of the march, Li Xian didn't drink any more.

He was never an alcoholic, he acted very proud in front of Qing Yuan and Huang Luan, he drank two bowls of wine in one breath, but actually the wine burnt into his stomach made him uncomfortable for half the night.Then he couldn't sleep because of this discomfort, and he spent the middle of the night thinking about how to arrange the army's next actions.

In fact, when he was ten years old, Xiao Di was seven years old, and he had never beaten Xiao Di in wine competitions. When he was, Xiao Di was 15 years old, and he was still no match for Xiao Di in wine competitions.Of course, it's not that his drinking capacity is surprisingly poor, but that Xiao Di's drinking capacity is surprisingly good.If Xiao Di's firepower is fully fired, even the bearded Zhang Zhongjian, who is addicted to alcohol, will have to admit defeat.This comparison is not to show that Li Xian's drinking capacity is not bad, it is responsible to say that his drinking capacity is not surprisingly bad, but it is not much better than surprisingly bad.

During the Chinese New Year, Xiao Di killed everyone in the Juyi hall, including Cheng Zhijie and the other drunkards, all of whom were convinced.And Jia Er, who thinks she has a good drinker, sighed after seeing Xiao Di drinking, saying that one Xiao Di is worth five of me, and one of me is worth five protagonists...

There is a kind of person in this world who can't drink much alcohol, but if he doesn't drink alcohol for a while, he will be greedy. In fact, this is a very cheap personality.

If Li Xian's wine bag is full, it can hold about fifteen bowls of wine like the one he used in front of Qing Yuan and Huang Luan that day. He drank almost two and a half bowls in one go that day, and it has been a long time now. There were at least eleven bowls left in the jug, which showed that His Royal Highness King Yan actually drank gracefully.

In the night, the lights in Li Xian's big tent were still on, but today he didn't frown slightly to look at the map, and he didn't play with pottery figurines on the sand table to deploy troops, and he didn't keep writing a few words as usual before falling asleep. , read a few pages.He was standing in front of the desk with a knife in his hand.

On the table in front of him was a flat wooden board with minced meat.

Beside him, Cheng Zhijie, Qin Qiong, Xiong Kuohai, Qing Yuan and Huang Luan, the five of them all looked at Li Xian curiously. Today, His Royal Highness King Yan is wearing a regular uniform, with his cuffs rolled up, hands Holding a handle... a kitchen knife.

He reached out and took a few eggs and cracked them into the basin, then began to add water to stir the flour, knead the meat stuffing into balls after the dough was mixed, and then spread a layer of flour mixed with eggs on the outside of the meatballs, and then use lotus leaf Wrap the meatballs and put them in a steamer for steaming. After steaming for a while, they feel almost cooked. Put the meatballs wrapped in lotus leaves into the oil pan for frying. Because the steamed meatballs carry a lot of water, put them in The oil pan was extremely boiling.

The five people watched without blinking, and they didn't know what Li Xian was doing on a whim today.

After frying the meatballs, he poured the prepared soup on top.

After finishing, Li Xian smiled proudly, looked at the appetizing meatballs on the plate and boasted: "I can guarantee that none of you have eaten such authentic lotus leaf-wrapped meat."

"Come on, try it."

Li Xian made a gesture of please.

People say that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, and scholars disdain to enter the kitchen, but now that Li Xian is the king of Yan, he cooks in the kitchen himself, which makes several of his subordinates feel a little panicked.Li Xian made it, and they couldn't help but eat it. In the panic and uneasy mood, they were faintly proud.

I have eaten dishes fried by Yan Wang himself, isn't that worth bragging about?

Cheng Zhijie first picked up the chopsticks and tasted one, but couldn't help applauding after being burned: "This taste is a bit strange, but it tastes really delicious!"

Hearing what he said, several other people couldn't help but pick up their chopsticks and start tasting.

Li Xian watched a few people eating while praising them, and couldn't help thinking of his favorite dish in his previous life. It was an inconspicuous small restaurant in front of the university. The best dish was eggplant wrapping meat. Li Xianbai He can't get tired of eating it, but now it's a bit difficult for him to find eggplant, so he can only make it once according to the taste in his memory.

"good to eat?"

Li Xian asked.

Qingyuan exclaimed while breathing the heat in her mouth: "This taste is really very fragrant and not greasy, delicious!"

A mature and prudent person like Qin Qiong couldn't help but said: "Marching for a month, this is the most comfortable and delicious food I have eaten in this month."

Li Xian smiled smugly, but soon became annoyed: "How can you do this...how can you...don't leave any of them for me?"

While talking, suddenly the guard outside said softly: "My lord, we're here!"

Li Xian responded, rolled up his sleeves and said helplessly: "It seems that I have to make another one."

The curtain of the big tent was lifted, and a graceful figure in black flashed in.

"Jia Er greets the lord!"

Li Xian looked at Jia'er's dusty face, sighed and said, "I was going to cook something for you, but those gluttons ate all of them."

Huang Luan blushed, looked at the meatball she had bitten into on the chopsticks, and said in a weak defense: "I haven't eaten all of them... there is still half a ball left."

……

……

While eating, Jiaer explained the things on the grassland in detail, Li Xian nodded and said: "Everything that should be arranged has been arranged, the net has been woven, and the prey has already burrowed in. Now It just depends on whether the big net we weave is strong enough that none of the prey can hit it."

Jia'er nodded and said: "I rushed here on the day the lord's letter arrived at Qingniu Lake. If there is no accident, Miss Douduo and Miss should lead the troops to set off the next day. Miss Qingqing stays behind Qingniu Lake. Niuhu, she sent Asnagu, the cavalry commander of the Khitan people, to lead the army to assist Miss Duoduo, when I arrived in Liyang, Miss and the others are probably almost there by now."

Li Xian hummed and said: "Are you tired after driving for so long? Take a good rest tonight, and you don't have to get up too early tomorrow. The army will stay in Liyang for at least three days, and at most five days." You need to start pulling out, you should take care of yourself these few days and recover some physical strength."

Jiaer glanced at Li Xian, blushed for some reason, then got up and backed out.

Li Xian waved his hand and said: "It's getting late, you all go to rest, and tomorrow you have to ask Wang Dangren what he plans to do, if he refuses to hand over enough food to support us to reach the destination, it will inevitably cost us a lot Twists and turns."

Qin Qiong and the others got up to leave, leaving Li Xian alone in his big tent.

He sat down, thinking about the news that Jiaer brought back, and then calculated the journey time, more than half an hour passed before he knew it.After sorting out everything, he was relieved to be sure that nothing would go wrong as long as he followed the plan.

Lying on the bed with all his clothes on, ready to rest for a while, but he didn't know what happened, lying on the bed, he couldn't fall asleep because of tossing and turning.

Turning over again, Li Xian lay on the bed and slowly opened his eyes, staring at the top of the big tent in a daze, looking at him as if he was enduring something, with a slightly painful expression on his face.Just 30 meters away from Li Xian's big tent, there is a newly erected tent. In the tent is Jiaer, who has traveled thousands of miles from Qingniu Lake to Liyang.She just took a bath, and washed away the dust and fatigue. She was very sleepy after changing into clean clothes, but she felt relieved after completing the task Ye Huaixiu had given her. She lay on the bed It's just hard to sleep.

Separated by 30 meters, separated by two layers of tents.

Li Xian sighed while lying on the bed, and Jia Er also sighed while lying on the bed.

Just like that, it took another half an hour for Li Xian to stare at the top of the tent, his eyelids finally became a little heavy, and Jiaer also yawned, then shook his head in disappointment and slowly closed his eyes.She tightened the quilt tightly, comforting herself in her heart, she should go to bed early, maybe there will be a fierce battle tomorrow.

And Li Xian was lying on the bed trying to convince himself, his slightly frowning brows seemed very tangled.

"This is in the barracks!"

Li Xian murmured in a very soft voice.

"I will definitely be very, very tired after traveling thousands of miles day and night!"

"It's been so long, she must have fallen asleep."

"Sleep, sleep, I have to deal with Wang Dangren tomorrow morning..."

……

……

It was late at night, and a cloud slowly moved over to block the original bright and bright moonlight. The night became a bit darker, but the brazier outside the big tent was still burning brightly, and the flames were swaying in the breeze. The shadows of the soldiers of the Yanyun Army dragged and swayed.

When the patrolling soldiers passed by Li Xian's big tent, they couldn't help sighing in their hearts when they saw the lights peeking out from the gaps in the big tent. It was already so late, and the lord was still awake, so he must still be thinking about ways to defeat the enemy.I don't know what kind of clever plan the lord will come up with this time, is the golden cicada getting out of its shell, or hiding the old position?

Not long after they passed the big tent, a black figure flashed past from behind the big tent, moving as fast as a cheetah in prey.
