Chapter 979 Extra Episode 4 Border Gate
Chapter 979
On the twenty-seventh day of the winter month in the fifth year of Sui'an.
Beyond Yanguan in the north, Xiao Hongze looked up at the sky, then bent down to pick up the two pieces of firewood he had just chopped off.
This year's snowstorm in northern Xinjiang is becoming more and more severe, and the sentry point he is guarding is far away from Yanguan, so it is inconvenient to travel. If he wants to survive this winter safely, he still needs to accumulate enough firewood for the winter as soon as possible.
Thinking so, Xiao Hongze carefully tied up the pile of branches with hemp rope, and put his hands on his shoulders.
When he got up, he glanced at the dark figure a hundred feet away, and the voice of his old friend came from far away in the wind and snow, and he subconsciously blinked his eyes slowly.
"Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao——" The turbulence in the hall easily polished away the childishness and innocence left in the young people's voices, and the rest is only the vicissitudes of life and calmness after going through the world.
Xiao Hongze stared fixedly at the thin figure coming from stepping on the snow, his pupils were in a trance for a moment.
——20 years ago, when they were still dandies living in Beijing and Liuxiang in Huajie and Liuxiang, he never thought that one day he would be able to see such a biting righteousness in Jiang Siran.
In the same way, he never thought that one day he would abandon the wealth and prosperity in the middle of the capital, willing to go alone to guard the country outside the snowy and frosty Yanguan.
It's all good fortune.
Xiao Hongze's eyes flickered, and when he fixed his eyes, the young man had already walked in front of him through the snow.
"Brother Xiao, it's been a long time." Jiang Siran smiled, rolled his eyes, and opened his mouth to spit out frosty white smoke, "How are you doing at the border?"
"Fortunately, everything is as usual." Xiao Hongze's eyes were reddish, and his tone was as relaxed as before, "Old Jiang, you are a majestic and dignified fourth-rank Zuoqin capital censor, why do you have to run here today without seeing people? The gate is coming."
"Aren't you going to court?"
"Ham, isn't it approaching the New Year's Eve, His Majesty wants to send someone to send some food and supplies to you soldiers on the border!" Jiang Siran grinned, "I thought our brothers hadn't seen each other for many years, so I took the initiative to take this Survive."
"Lord Lu and the others are standing in the middle of the court. It doesn't matter if my little Yushi, the imperial censor, runs out for ten days and a half months."
"Okay, Old Jiang, come with me, the wind and snow here are too heavy, it's not a place to talk—" Xiao Hongze, who was carrying firewood on his back, beckoned, and then took the lead.
Jiang Siran followed him all the way from the forest to the small sentry point outside Yanguan—a small tile-roofed house surrounded by a slightly rough wooden fence, separating the square and clean border courtyard.
After Xiao Hongze was admitted to the hospital, he habitually shook the two flags standing in the courtyard. After making sure that the flagpoles were stable, he put down the bundle of firewood, led people into the house, lit oil lamps, and burned the kang.
"Brother Xiao, I brought you two jars of your favorite wine." After speaking, Jiang Siran took out a few small jars from his cloak. Although it is cold, there has never been half a stubble of ice.
Xiao Hongze held a jar in his hands, the wine he drank was sweet and mellow, soft, without any pungent or spicy taste.
"Good wine—it's a pity that after all these years, I'm no longer used to drinking such good wine." Xiao Hongze smiled and put the wine jar down, "It's too soft, not strong enough, and not enough to warm up."
"The Burning Knife that border people often drink is more to my liking—"
"The wine brewed in the rich and gentle village is indeed more free and easy than the white wine in the border town." Jiang Siran smiled and nodded, and Shaoqing slightly lowered his eyebrows, "But brother Xiao, you really plan to stay outside this Yanguan for the rest of your life ?"
——Back then, they, the dandies of the Green Feather Guard, crossed the Xianshui River with their own governor, and also went north to sneak into Kalemala.
The mud that couldn't support the wall in the past became Qianping's sharpest sharp edge for a time——after their military service expired, some stayed in the army, and some picked up the dusty things at home like him book……
But Xiao Hongze was the only one who was willing to give up that dazzling feat, went to the northern border alone, and became a small frontier sentinel outside the Guancheng——
One goes for 15 years.
"With your military achievements, you can get a more important position and go to a more comfortable place."
"...Old Jiang, have you been happy in court these years?" Xiao Hongze answered irrelevantly, and only quietly raised his eyes to stare at the young man's eyebrows.
The faint light of the flames reflected Xiao Hongze's rough and dark face that had been worn rough by the wind and snow, and Jiang Siran suddenly realized that he could no longer find the shadow of the regal, romantic, and dandy in him.
"...It's not about whether you're happy or not." He opened his mouth, and it took him a while to find his own voice, "but I feel very at ease."
"That's right—" Xiao Hongze suddenly broke into a smile, "I'm also very at ease here."
"It's right here, in the months of constant wind and snow in northern Xinjiang, in the endless forest and grassland." He said, raising his finger and pointing to the vast whiteness outside the window, "Old Jiang, it's very good here."
Jiang Siran was at a loss for words.
"Old Jiang, are your majesty and the national teacher all right?" Xiao Hongze seemed to have noticed the young man's aphasia, and turned away from the conversation lightly, "and our governor——"
"How have they been all these years?"
"They...everything is fine." Jiang Siran's voice was slightly hoarse, "Haiyan Heqing, Mr. Li will be taken out of Beijing for free consultation by the Master of the State Teacher from time to time. Occasionally, His Majesty will take a few His Highnesses to sneak away with them when he is free. "
"This is a headache for His Royal Highness Duan Wang, but he is always in a wheelchair, so he can't catch up with them."
"As for our captain—she is still the same as before, but Shenjiying and Qingyuwei have been taught by her to the third generation."
Mentioning the current Qingyu Guard, Jiang Siran couldn't hold back a chuckle: "Speaking of which, now no one dares to challenge our governor in court anymore."
"That's natural." Xiao Hongze frowned, and when the two were chatting and laughing, the excited shouts of children suddenly came from outside the courtyard, and he hurriedly put on his boots and left the house.
"Uncle Xiao, Uncle Xiao—" The girl with two pigtails swung her arms vigorously, her little face exposed outside the padded jacket was flushed red by the wind and snow.
"The little brother caught two big pheasants, we can have delicious food tonight—" the little girl shouted loudly, and the children behind her hugged the two oily and slippery pheasants together. Chicken, the face is also full of irrepressible excitement.
"Okay—you guys come in first to warm up, and I'll boil some hot water to kill the chicken." Xiao Hongze responded with a loud voice, while picking up the wooden bucket filled with water and the ax for chopping firewood. Raising eyebrows: "Brother Xiao, they are..."
"Oh, they are orphans who lost their parents in several nearby villages." Xiao Hongze, who split open the ice surface of the water tank without looking up, "Sometimes I get tired of eating Shantang, and feel that I am alone here, and I will look for them. For a reason, come to me for a meal."
"I have nothing to do when I have nothing to do. Occasionally, I will teach them some fists and kicks, and take them to recognize two characters."
"How should I put it, Old Jiang—" Xiao Hongze who had fetched water got up and looked at the pale young man.
"Do you want to stay for dinner?"
Personally, I still like the ending of Xiao Hongze very much. He is not a bad guy, but he is indeed a bit abnormal in the early stage, and he is basically a comedian in the later stage, with a clear mind.
He was planning to make Xiao's family disappear, so it's not bad to go to the border by himself.
He may have a little unexplainable atonement mentality, but at the same time, this is also the peace of mind and freedom he pursues.
Qingyuwei's group of dandies retired and basically continued to shine in various places. Some went to other places, some worked as hard as Jiang Siran for the scientific examination (for his own examination) and stayed in Beijing to serve the court, and some were still in the army. Those who help Ajie manage the Qingyu Guard or other troops, in short, everyone is very good.
