No one in the capital city knows the name of King Xiao Yan.
He was originally a general who fought on one side and made great contributions to the founding of Dajing. During his time as the first emperor, he was a magical weapon that resisted the invasion of the Northern Xia Dynasty.
After Bai Buhui ascended the throne, he transferred him back to Shangjing City and served as the general banner of the patrol battalion, responsible for patrolling Shangjing City and the Gyeonggi region.
"you are?"
"The general flag of the patrol camp, Xiao Chuang, Xiao Yanwang."
Jiang Qin came close to Jiang Chen's ear and whispered.
"Xiao Yanwang? This name is quite strange."
"Boss, you should be careful. It is said that those who are targeted by him will not end well." Jiang Qin hesitated and added, "It is said that he can eat people."
eat human?
As if no one can.
"Little fat man, what are you talking about?"
Their "loud" conspiracy was obviously heard by Xiao Chuang. He picked up Jiang Qin with one hand and stared at him fiercely.
"Sir, please forgive me, I'm all fat and not tasty."
Jiang Chen was thinking about rescuing Jiang Qin, but he didn't know that what this kid said was really irritating, so he ignored him.
Xiao Chuang did not continue to pester him and threw Jiang Qin aside casually.
"Master Jiang, are you not going to give me this face?"
"That's not true, but I have no connection with the General Banner. I don't understand why the General Banner wants to invite me to talk."
"It's very simple. I admire your performance just now."
Xiao Chuang was direct and spoke straightforwardly without beating around the bush.
Jiang Chen was a little surprised.
I never expected that I would be able to fall into the eyes of this Lord General Banner.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
"Mr. Jiang, please."
Jiang Chen left the Jingxin Hall with Xiao Chuang, and when he left, he did not forget to ask Jiang Qin to help him apply for leave with Zhao Qiansun.
Otherwise, the stingy old man doesn't know what tricks he will come up with to deal with him.
But we can't let him succeed.
Jiang Chen bet all his wealth on the handicap that he would not leave Taixue, a hundred taels of silver.
Climb the stairs.
Night and day are completely different.
Although the boarding floor is equally lively during the day, without the blessing of various lanterns along the Tianzi River, it seems to have lost its soul and looks ordinary.
Likewise on the Tianzi River, there are far fewer boat operators operating boats to solicit passengers during the day.
"General Xiao, long time no see."
As soon as they walked through the door, the shopkeeper greeted them warmly.
Judging from his enthusiastic appearance, Xiao Chuang is obviously a frequent visitor here.
"Don't talk nonsense. We are serving you good wine and good food in the wing upstairs. Mr. Jiang and I have something to discuss."
"Okay, please."
Xiao Chuang was also very forthright, and Jiang Chen couldn't help but look sideways at the commander-in-chief.
This is not consistent with the rumored name of Xiao Yanwang.
There seems to be some anger towards him.
The two of them followed the shopkeeper to the upstairs wing.
After a while, the table was filled with various dishes.
The waiter was calling to pour out the wine from the jar, but was pulled aside by Xiao Chuang.
Then he threw a jar of wine in front of Jiang Chen.
"A real man should use it."
"Okay, today I will accompany Mr. General Banner to get drunk before resting."
Seeing Xiao Chuang like this, Jiang Chen didn't refuse any more.
After talking with each other, it was discovered that this Xiao Yan Wang seemed to have a natural hostility towards Bei Xia.
No wonder he dared to lead his men to surround the Northern Xia envoy without receiving any order from the court.
"Master Jiang..."
"Just call me Jiang Chen."
"Hahaha, you really have a bad temper towards me, Xiao Yan Wang." Xiao Chuang laughed and drank the wine in the jar.
"Xiao Yanwang? I didn't expect the Lord General Banner to call himself that."
"I think it sounds good."
"Then, can I call you the King of Hell?"
Jiang Chen seemed to be infected by Xiao Chuang's enthusiasm, and even joked when he spoke.
This was a rare moment when he could relax his guard except when facing Bai Zhi.
"This is good, this is good, it's domineering enough."
"Come on, do it!"
Afterwards, Xiao Chuang talked about many of his past events in the frontier.
When he talked about some common people's villages that had been looted by the Northern Xia and Yueshi, tears actually flashed in his eyes.
Jiang Chen was deeply touched.
When a man sheds tears, he doesn't shed them lightly, but they are not sad yet.
No wonder he wanted to drink with him, it turned out to be this reason.
According to Xiao Chuang's temper, he was very restrained when he didn't take action in Taixue just now.
"The dogs from Beixia are so arrogant in my Dajing territory, but I can't do anything about it. I'm really a coward."
"Don't worry about it, King of Hell. The situation is different. I believe you can go back to the battlefield to kill the enemy and establish your merits."
Xiao Chuang smiled and shook his head but did not speak.
This is really a fantasy for him now.
"There is something, please don't pay attention to it, King of Hell."
"Brother Jiang, tell me what you have to say. I, the King of Hell, don't care about anything. It's all bullshit."
"I wonder why the King of Hell was transferred away from the border?"
As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, he saw Xiao Chuang slam the wine jar in his hand to the ground.
"Damn it, I'm so angry just talking about it."
"If I knew why, I would have flipped the fucking table over a long time ago. Why would I get angry everywhere in Shangjing? Those sour Zou Zou guys look angry."
"Repay the courtesy of a great country, be tolerant and kind, bah!"
Jiang Chen seemed to have opened Xiao Chuang's Pandora's box, making a burst of crazy complaints.
On the contrary, Jiang Chen was a little confused.
It seemed that the child was really wronged.
A temper like his is really inappropriate in a place like Shangjing, which is full of intrigue.
Jiang Chen silently pushed a jar of wine in front of him.
"Then who transferred you back?"
"Then, of course it is Your Majesty."
When it comes to Bai Buhui, Xiao Chuang's temper seems to have calmed down a bit.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen also understood.
It turned out that he was afraid of the emperor.
But he doesn't look like a submissive guy like this. Could it be that he has something hidden?
Xiao Chuang seemed to hear Jiang Chen's thoughts and continued: "Your Majesty has given me life-saving grace, so I don't have to listen to anyone's words, but I have no reason to refuse his."
Afterwards, Xiao Chuang told Jiang Chen how Bai Buhui rescued him.
It turned out that he was not from Jingguo, but a woodcutter from the previous dynasty. He slipped and fell off the cliff. He was saved by Bai Bugui who was passing by, and he stayed with him ever since.
Wait, what kind of fairy tale is this?
"There are not many people in this world who care about kindness as much as the King of Hell."
"Those are not worthy of being called human beings. If I encounter them, I will kill them all with a knife."
After drinking another jar of wine, Jiang Chen was already feeling dizzy.
But Xiao Chuang, who was opposite him, was getting more and more energetic.
"Isn't this possible?"
Just when he was about to fall, Xiao Chuang, with quick eyesight and quick hands, held him up.
The moment of contact...
【Xiao Chuang】
[Drinking, level 9, title: Can you do it, thin dog]
[Loyalty, level 9, title: A drop of water's kindness, a spring of kindness will repay you]
[Swordsmanship, level 8, title: One gun can level the world]
[Sword Skills, Level 7, Title: I Have a Sword]
Good guy, another weirdo.
Jiang Chen endured his dizzy state and absorbed Xiao Chuang's skills.
The energy came instantly.
He slammed the table and shouted loudly.
"Xiaoer, come to Shitan again!"
Xiao Chuang's eyes suddenly lit up.
Since returning to Beijing, I have never met anyone as evenly matched as Jiang Chen!
After another meal, Xiao Chuang couldn't help but cheer.
"Cool!"
"Brother Jiang, I have another request. I wonder if you can agree to it?"
