The north wind came last night and it snowed three feet suddenly.
The snow in Kyoto had stopped for a long time, and even the snow on the streets was about to melt, but today it suddenly started to rain heavily again for some unknown reason.
The happiest children were naturally the children in Kyoto. Seeing the snow getting heavier and heavier, they didn't care about the cold outside. They ran to the streets of Kyoto in twos and had a snowball fight.
It can be said that the business of the restaurant is very prosperous today. Several young people also met together and unanimously asked for some seats by the window. They drank hot wine while enjoying the snow. It was very comfortable.
Looking at the heavy snow in Tingchao Pavilion, Sun Gusheng sighed for no reason: "The snow is flying thousands of miles, and Kyoto is red all over..."
Listening to these words, no one's expressions showed any emotion.
It seems that Kyoto is red all over, which is something they have long recognized in their hearts.
War means bloodshed and sacrifice.
If possible, no one really wants Kyoto to be red all over, but unfortunately, there is no if.
A member of Tingchao Pavilion walked up to Sun Gusheng and whispered in a low voice: "Your Majesty, they are almost here."
Sun Gusheng nodded, called Li Pingping and Guan Jing, and walked out of Tingchao Pavilion together towards the city gate.
These three people appeared on the street together, and the pedestrians on the street were all shocked.
Since the internal rebellion in Kyoto was completely resolved, these three people would not appear together.
But now, these three people appear together again, which inevitably makes people suspicious.
Could it be that something big is going to happen in Kyoto again?
The common people couldn't help but complain in their hearts. When there was an internal rebellion in Kyoto, they were the ones who suffered the most. They finally adjusted from that incident, so why do they have to do this again?
There is really no breathing room at all.
The common people could only lament silently, and some people had already accelerated their pace home and wanted to rush back to pack their luggage.
The three of them came to the city gate and ordered the soldiers to open the city gate wide. They wanted Gu Xiaotian to enter the city in glory this time.
About half an hour later, there was still no sign of Gu Xiaotian and his party. The snow on the shoulders of Sun Gusheng and the others was already a little thick. A soldier kindly brought some coats, then mustered up his courage and whispered: "Your Majesty, why don't you go back and wait? It's really not a good day to travel."
Sun Gusheng did not take the coat, but just smiled at the soldier, then shook off the snow on his head and body, and said softly: "He will not fail to come."
Guan Jing glared at the soldier, but did not reprimand him.
The soldier could only lower his head, took his coat back, and then returned to the camp and asked an older soldier: "To put it bluntly, that Gu Xiaotian is a person in the world. His reputation is indeed famous, but it is not that big." Let our Majesty do this."
The implication is that the young soldiers don't think Gu Xiaotian has anything and is not worthy of His Majesty's trouble.
The older soldier said sternly: "Watch your mouth. You joined late and have never seen what that young man did for Kyoto. Now you can still get a bite of food in Kyoto. Half of the credit must be attributed to you." To him."
The young soldier immediately covered his mouth.
This older soldier has always had a good temper and never got angry with others, but today he was scolded just because he said something wrong about Gu Xiaotian, which shows Gu Xiaotian's reputation in Kyoto.
Outside the city gate, Sun Gusheng and the others stood in the wind and snow, motionless, like three statues.
The winter sun would set earlier, and just as it was setting, Sun Gusheng looked up at the sky and said calmly: "Here he comes."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a stream of light falling impartially in front of the city gate.
Sun Gusheng walked towards the stream of light and asked, "Why are you alone?"
After the light dispersed, a young man with a sword on his back stood there, looking at Sun Gusheng and the two people behind him, and said with some surprise: "I have such a great reputation, I actually let you greet me in person?"
Sun Gusheng nodded and said: "You are
The great benefactor of Kyoto naturally has this face. "
The young man shook his head helplessly and said: "What kind of great benefactor? Bringing all the bad luck to Kyoto, can this be considered a great benefactor?"
Sun Gusheng stretched out his hand to sweep the snow off the young man's body, and said calmly: "But without you, I'm afraid Kyoto would have ceased to exist."
The young man smiled bitterly.
Li Pingping slowly walked forward, bowed to the young man and said, "I have met my benefactor."
Guan Jing also moved forward with the same words.
The young man hurriedly waved his hands and said: "You two adults are serious in your words. Those who are benefactors and not benefactors are all..."
Originally, I wanted to say that they were brothers, but when it came to seniority, Li Pingping and Guan Jing were much older than the young people, so they couldn't think of what to say for a while.
The young man could only smile apologetically at the three of them.
The three of them didn't care and welcomed the young man into the city gate.
Sun Gusheng asked: "Where are the remaining people?"
The young man smiled and said, "I'm worried that Kyoto won't accept us, so I came here to stand in front of us. If you refuse now, I will immediately turn around and go back, and I will promise not to get close to Kyoto."
Sun Gusheng punched the young man hard and said dissatisfied: "If you really want to talk about it, you saved my life. If you ask me to reject you and return to the palace, believe it or not, my father can directly Come out and beat me to death?"
The two people standing behind Sun Gusheng coughed slightly, trying to signal Sun Gusheng to pay attention to his image.
The king of a country looks like this and speaks like this, so don't let anyone hear or look at you.
Gu Xiaotian laughed, patted Sun Gusheng on the shoulder and asked, "Have you thought about it?"
"Think about it."
"This hurdle may be even more difficult than last time."
"As long as there is a hurdle, there is always a way to get over it. Either take a longer pace, or simply build a bridge."
"You have changed a lot, Sun... Your Majesty."
"Really? I think so too."
In the wind and snow, the two of them hugged each other and laughed.
Li Pingping and Guan Jing simply ignored it. This young majesty always had a straight face in the palace, and always gave people the feeling of being calm and intimidating.
But only the two of them knew that His Majesty at this time was the real Majesty.
The Mobei Army and Xu Jiajun quickly entered the city. Seeing their tired appearance, the soldiers at the city gate couldn't help but be stunned. Is this really the brave and capable Mobei Army?
When they saw Gu Qingfeng, the soldiers were sure that this was the Mobei Army.
Gu Qingfeng walked slowly behind, greeting the soldiers guarding the city gate, looking like he was laughing and joking, not like someone who had just experienced a big battle.
It was the first time for the young soldier to see Gu Qingfeng, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
The rumored leader Gu seems to be very different from what I thought.
When Gu Qingfeng passed by the young soldier, he suddenly stopped, looked at the young soldier, and asked, "What's your name, and how long have you been in the army?"
The young soldier was stunned for a moment, and then stammered in reply: "Zhang Sheng, he has been in the army for less than half a year."
Gu Qingfeng nodded, waved to the young soldier and said, "Follow me from today on."
The young soldier opened his mouth wide and was at a loss.
The older soldier stabbed him and reminded him: "You are so damn lucky, follow Alliance Leader Gu and you will definitely have a bright future in the future. Why are you hesitating?"
Zhang Sheng nodded quickly and followed Gu Qingfeng silently.
Along the way, the more Zhang Sheng thought about it, the more incredible it became. He mustered up the courage again, walked up to Gu Qingfeng, and asked, "Gu Leader, what do you see in me?"
Zhang Sheng is very self-aware. In the martial arts, his road seems to be only so long, so he never dares to ask for anything, to be able to join the Kyoto Army and become one of them, even the boring job of guarding the city gate. , is enough to make him happy. At least if one day he dies in battle, his parents will definitely be treated well.
But today, Zhang Sheng's life has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Not everyone can get such an opportunity casually.
Who are the people in the Heaven and Earth Alliance? Those are all single, well-known figures. Looking at the whole world, such people are only a minority.
As for Zhang Sheng, now that he has the opportunity to become one of them, he is really lucky beyond words.
Gu Qingfeng patted Zhang Sheng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Isn't it tiring to have to press yourself all the time?"
Zhang Sheng pursed his lips, nodded and admitted, "My level is indeed better than those of those veterans, but it's just a little bit more. Isn't it a little far behind the standards of the Heaven and Earth Alliance?"
Gu Qingfeng said bluntly: "It is indeed a bit far."
Zhang Sheng lowered his head in silence.
"However, who said that joining the Heaven and Earth Alliance is measured by one's realm? Don't you know that there is a martial arts waste in our Heaven and Earth Alliance?"
Zhang Sheng thought for a while and realized that Gu Qingfeng was talking about Qi You.
Gu Qingfeng thought to himself: "I can't be wrong about people. I heard everything you said to the veteran at that time."
Zhang Sheng quickly apologized.
Gu Qingfeng stretched out his hand to stop him, "You don't have to apologize. If you can say that, it means that that's what you think in your heart. What you see is different from others. I bet that even if you knew Gu Xiaotian in advance, You will also say the same thing about the things you have done."...
Zhang Sheng opened his mouth, then thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
In fact, even Gu Qingfeng himself was surprised. He did not expect that the Kyoto Army would recruit such a number one figure.
Gu Qingfeng looked at Zhang Sheng with satisfaction, maybe he could train him into a second Qiyou.
If others knew the reason why Gu Qingfeng wanted Zhang Sheng to join, they might find it extremely far-fetched, but there were some things that they couldn't see, but that didn't mean that Gu Qingfeng couldn't see them.
After Qi You's rebellion, Gu Qingfeng had been trying to find a replacement to fill his vacancy, but in such a big world, it seemed that Qi You was the only one who could really use his head.
But today, Gu Qingfeng felt that maybe there was more than one genius in Qiyu, and the Zhang Sheng he had just recruited was very good.
He was very satisfied.
Zhang Sheng walked silently beside Gu Qingfeng. It seemed that he had been holding it in for a long time before he said cautiously: "Leader Gu, there is actually something I don't know whether I should say."
Gu Qingfeng looked at Zhang Sheng with satisfaction and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it openly and don't shy away from it."
Zhang Sheng looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "Actually, I think there is one thing that you guys went in the wrong direction from the beginning."
