Hua Yao, who was allowed to stay and have lunch together, breathed a sigh of relief where no one else could see him. He didn't know why, but he felt like he had escaped.

When he was bumped into by Xue Ruitian before, especially when His Majesty saw him, he always felt that he might not be able to pass this test. He even prepared for the worst, in case he was unlucky and made His Majesty furious and was forcibly sent home. Go, he can't just be so obedient. He must find a way to escape halfway. If he escapes, he will go directly to the south. No matter how difficult the road is, how difficult the life is, even if he is begging for food while walking, He also wants to go to the south, to find Liu Shuai, and to fulfill his wish.

Fortunately, he was lucky. His Majesty still agreed with his idea and even approved him to stay in Shen Jiajun for a few days to experience it. This was an unexpected surprise for him, no different from pie in the sky.

While Hua Yao was thinking about his own thoughts, he looked left and right, and instinctively moved closer to Bai Meng. He really didn't want to get too close to His Majesty, Duke Shen and General Shen. The aura of these three was too great. Qiang, sitting next to them, I'm afraid I'm going to have a stomachache after finishing this meal. In addition, he and Xue Ruitian haven't dealt with each other much since they were young. When they meet, they will start to fight each other if they can't say a few words. .But the two of them don’t have any deep hatred, they just don’t like each other and are just looking for trouble.

"Wise move." Bai Meng saw Hua Yao sitting next to her looking like an aggrieved little daughter-in-law who had been treated unfairly, and snorted, "Are you unconvinced, or do you still have resentment in your heart? Come out? You are such a man, why are you still crying! If you look like this, if you get to Liu Shuai's place, you will be crying and shouting to go home in less than two days!"

"Commander, please stop laughing at me. You don't even know how I have lived these days!" Hua Yao lowered his head and looked at his wrinkled and dirty clothes. "When have you seen this before?" Is this what I look like?"

"Can't you stand this anymore?" Bai Meng handed him his untouched cup of hot tea, "If you really give up the civilized literature and join the martial arts, you will be considered neat as you are now." He patted Xue Ruitian next to him. Arm, "Ask Mr. Hou, during the war, it was normal for them to be covered in blood and unkempt."

"Actually, it's not a bad thing for you to join the army. At least it can cure your fault-finding disease! Being clean is a good thing, but it also depends on time and place!" After hearing Bai Meng's words, Xue Ruitian looked at Hua Yao with a smile. , looking at it from one glance to the next, "You are very good in a war like this. If nothing else, it is normal for our armor not to be taken off for half a month. I remember the most serious one , after three consecutive days of beating, the armor seemed to have grown on me. When I took it off, it accidentally affected the wounds on my body, and that was the real pain!"

"You..." Hua Yao was born in Xijing and grew up in Xijing. The most he saw was the fights between gangsters on the street and the daily training of soldiers on the school field. He was covered in dirt and mud. This was already what he could do. The limit of endurance was reached. I didn't expect that the real border would be like this. "I...I...you...you..." He stuttered for a while, unable to say a complete sentence, "Aren't you generals? Why? Will you still get hurt?"

"Take the lead, don't you understand? The general will not be injured? Whose logic is this?" Seeing Hua Yao's little face turned pale with fright, Xue Ruitian felt inexplicably good, "What about people like us?

It’s enough if there aren’t dozens of big and small scars.”

"You...you are talking nonsense!" Hua Yao swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, and the fingers holding the teacup began to turn white, "Xue Ruitian, I have not seen much of the world, but you should not deceive me as a fool. You

If you had suffered so many injuries, would Your Majesty and the Queen Mother allow you to stay at the border? Wouldn't they have transferred you back to Beijing long ago?"

"Oh?" Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows and poked Song Jue with his elbow, "Why didn't I know you still had this intention?"

"What? What did I do to you?" Hearing Xue Ruitian repeat Hua Yao's words, Song Jue chuckled, "Oh, this! The queen mother had this idea, but I stopped her." Seeing that,

Hua Yao looked at him in surprise, and explained, "You don't understand why, do you? The old Duke and the Marquis had already sworn before they came to Jiaping Pass that the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion and the Wuding Marquis' Mansion would guard the northern border of Daxia.

, they exist to ensure the peace of the Northern Territory, and this is their responsibility. The day the Northern Territory no longer needs them, they will disappear completely."

"The old Duke and the old Marquis are righteous!" Bai Meng sighed heavily, "As far as I know, they also require the descendants of the two families to keep this in mind and not have any wrong thoughts.

The purpose of its existence is to protect this land and the people. When my grandfather told me about it at the time, he was extremely impressed. This is why I insisted on coming to Jiapingguan City." He looked at Shen Haolin, and then at

Look at Xue Ruitian, "I heard that this is your family law and all future generations must abide by it."

"Well, the first and most important rule of family law is this." Xue Ruitian nodded, "No matter what happens, you will never leave Jiaping Pass without His Majesty's order."

"Back then, the late emperor persuaded the two of them, but they didn't listen and insisted on doing so. The late emperor had no choice." Song Jue shrugged and raised an eyebrow at Hua Yao, "So, even if I and the Queen Mother have any ideas, they can only be

It's just an idea, it can't be turned into reality. But..." He glanced at Bai Meng curiously, "It's so good, why are you talking about this?"

"He said that Mr. Hou lied to him. He obviously didn't suffer any injuries, but he insisted on saying that he was scarred." Bai Meng patted Hua Yao on the shoulder, "You are said to be innocent and childish, but you still don't believe it. Be a soldier

Yes, how many of them have not been injured? Even me, the commander-in-chief, who hangs around the capital all day long, will suffer major and minor injuries, let alone border guards like them." He pointed at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha,

"What you heard in Beijing is that the Shen family army won another battle. The Duke, the Marquis, and the general beheaded the enemy commander and so on. But you know how many times they almost lost their lives.

Throw it on the battlefield?" Taking the teacup handed to him by Xue Ruitian, he took a sip and continued, "You have seen their scenery and imagined that one day you can be so high-spirited, but you have never thought about these scenery.

Behind the scenes, they have to pay a huge price."

"Isn't this normal?" Xue Ruitian sighed, "Most people in Beijing are like this. They see what they want to see and what they can't see are completely ignored. But , Fortunately, there is someone like you, Xiaobaizi, which makes us very happy."

"It's not just me, His Majesty is the same. Every time there is a war at the border, especially a very critical war, His Majesty can't sleep all night long. He is worried about the Duke of the country, the Marquis, and the two counties. Wang, I am worried about General Shen. I am afraid that if I fall asleep and open my eyes again, I will hear the bad news about these people coming from the border."

"Why bother? We just know that he will be like this, so no matter how difficult the situation is or how injured he is, we will not send the news back." Xue Ruitian curled his lips, "We said, unless Die in battle, otherwise, only good news will reach the capital."

"Reporting good news but not bad news." Bai Meng rolled his eyes and looked at Hua Yao seriously, "After hearing this, do you still want to go to Liu Shuai's place?"

Hua Yao looked at Bai Meng, then at Xue Ruitian, lowered his head and thought for a long time.

"You don't have to think about it for so long. You will know what you really think after experiencing it for yourself this time."

"Really?" Hua Yao immediately raised his head, "You can't trick me!"

"The premise is that you can pass my test." Xue Ruitian knocked on the table lightly, "If you can pass my test, without Your Majesty having to say anything, I will personally write a letter to Mr. Ge and personally recommend you to Commander Liu."

"Can you be so kind?"

"You are naive, but you still don't admit it. I won't make fun of your future. Besides, I have always believed that boys must go out and have their own adventures in order to truly grow up!"

"Hey, stop talking to me in a lecturing tone. You are not much older than me. Don't always think about being my elder!" Hua Yao rolled his eyes, "Just watch, I will definitely do it. It will impress you!"

"Really? Then I'll wait and see. I hope you don't let me see the joke."

"We'll see!"

Hua Yao glared at Xue Ruitian angrily, but the latter didn't care about his anger at all, and still had a very nasty, mocking smile on his face.
