"Grandpa is really that powerful?" Xiaotan covered her mouth in disbelief.
"Grandpa usually seems very kind. He wouldn't even bear to kill a wild boar. He would let Ah Huang bite him to death and then let a little girl do it. However, unexpectedly..."
Guan Cheng said with a relaxed smile: "This is just the tip of the iceberg. I only picked a few things to talk about."
"Datong has been a country for five hundred years. It has great martial arts. The country is more than ten thousand miles in circumference. There are many talented people and famous generals. But there is only one general, Tiance, and Wuduo."
"When the old general was the emperor's whip, the princes and other countries did not dare to have the slightest dissent. Less than ten years after the old general retired, the world began to become chaotic. The old general's achievements are so high!"
Xiaotan pursed her lips and turned her head to the side, but she couldn't imagine what it was like. She could see the sincere admiration these people had for her grandfather, but she couldn't understand this admiration yet.
But there was an indescribable feeling in her heart that made her whole body feel warm. Although she didn't understand it, it didn't affect her yearning.
"how about you?"
Guan Cheng was stunned, pointed at himself and asked, "Me? What's wrong with me?"
"Uh, forget it."
Guan Chengzhang'er's head was at a loss, but soon he became excited again. The clouds and mist were floating where he saw it, a wooden house seemed to move with the clouds and mist, and a huge sika deer was looming in the green place.
Seeing this, Guan Cheng took off Hu Bei and solemnly arranged his somewhat embarrassed clothes. The accompanying guard sergeants also looked pious and solemn.
The people lined up on both sides, with Guan Cheng in front and Yu Fa following. The soldiers behind him stood with their long swords on their chests. Chang Ge held them upright with both hands and then knelt down on one knee.
"The King of Datong Jin Dynasty, Guan Cheng, and his soldiers met with General Tiance and King Zhang Shuai of Wu Dao!"
Just a dozen or so people were making noise, and the door of the wooden house opened automatically at this moment, blowing out a burst of white mist, giving people a fairy-like feeling.
The world became quiet, but no one thought that this kind of quietness was a slight for a prince of Datong. General Tiance could walk on the sword to the palace. It can be seen that the emperor did not worship him. He was truly inferior to tens of thousands of people. .
After a moment, a voice came out: "I have been hiding here for more than a hundred years. I originally didn't want to pay attention to the disputes in the world. Dynasties come and go in their own way. However, the spirits of Datong emperors in the past generations cannot bear to have Datong's foundation be divided up. I I also believe that Datong’s contribution to the world can be destroyed but cannot be stolen, so accepting your worship today is my repayment to this world of mortals."
"When the King of Jin enters, the rest of the people, such as Tan'er, will entertain me well. They are all brave and loyal men and should not be treated lightly."
"Thank you, General!"
Guan Cheng was so excited that he couldn't control the excitement on his face.
"The younger generation, Guan Cheng, is grateful to the general."
Two desks sitting opposite each other have been prepared in the wooden house. There are some seasonal fruits and a pot of strong wine that is intoxicating from the smell.
Guan Cheng saluted again before taking his seat.
"Your Highness, let's have a drink first to relieve our fatigue." As he said this, he raised the wine bottle on Guan Cheng's desk with his right hand, and then it rose up into the air and poured it into the cup. This move made Guan Cheng surprised again, and he admired Zhang Yuanbai even more. Layer, he is worthy of being a god.
Guan Cheng picked up the wine glass and his eyes suddenly lit up and he said: "This is Ren Huang Zui, the purest Ren Huang Zui!"
Zhang Yuanbai smiled slightly and looked at Guan Cheng with a bit of fondness: "I think back when I led the army on an expedition to Mobei, the weather was bitterly cold and many of the soldiers died of the cold. After hearing this, the contemporary emperor summoned hundreds of folk craftsmen from the capital and they were able to produce the goods in less than two months. I drank this Human Emperor's Drunk. Although I was in a hurry, the effect was surprisingly good. A sip of this wine in the ice and snow weather was like fire in my throat. When I came back from victory, the others did not ask for rewards. Only this Human Emperor's Drunk was taken over by me. The wine recipe was all given to me, so much so that the subsequent Ren Huang Zui no longer tasted like this, only strong."
"It's a pity that there are not many of these Human Emperors drunk anymore. Your Highness should have a good time to taste the power of my Datong."
Guan Cheng picked up the wine glass and seemed to see tens of thousands of soldiers trekking through the vast grassland covered with ice and snow. The long and melodious tunes added a hint of drunkenness to the tragic and stirring atmosphere.
"Junior Guan Cheng, respect all the heroic spirits!" After saying this, he spilled the wine in the cup on the ground.
Zhang Yuanbai still smiled and said nothing, but when he raised his hand, the wine glass in Guan Cheng's hand was filled again.
After a few glasses of strong wine, Guan Cheng felt a little tipsy even though he had a good drinking capacity. This kind of pure human emperor drunkenness was much stronger than any other wine in the palace.
After a few rounds, the originally calm Guan Cheng sat on the table and started talking intermittently. He even took out his sword and started dancing in the wooden house. A series of war songs flowed out of Guan Cheng's mouth, showing off the young man's strength to his heart's content. Reluctance and ambition.
Zhang Yuanbai just kept stroking his beard and smiling, and drank a glass of Ren Huang Zui from time to time.
When Xiao Tan pouted and walked over with some displeasure, she saw a scene that shocked her.
I saw Guan Cheng holding a sword in one hand and a wine glass in the other. His long hair spread out covering most of his face. Xiao Tan had never seen such a wild situation.
Zhang Yuanbai nodded slightly towards Xiao Tan. Guan Cheng, who was dancing wildly, did not notice Xiao Tan sneaking in quietly with his waist bent.
"Grandpa, is this guy okay?" Xiaotan's pretty face showed a trace of nervousness.
Zhang Yuanbai smiled and said: "With only half a jar of strong liquor, what can happen? He is the Prince of Datong, is it possible that he can be put down by being so drunk as the Human Emperor?"
Xiaotan tilted his head and followed Guan Cheng's dancing figure with his eyes and whispered, "But look at him like that, he's so scary!"
Zhang Yuanbai let out a long sigh and said: "Let him get drunk and be wanton. Your brother has been feeling aggrieved for too long. How many young men at his age can have such a strategy and courage?" Tolerant.”
"It happens to be him, the most noble person in the world, who has to do this. Who can understand the helplessness, anger and unwillingness in this?"
A cup of human emperor's drunkenness will drain away all worries.
Zhang Yuanbai tilted his head back slightly and took a glass of strong wine, but there was nothing wrong with him on his face.
Xiao Tan next to him had a look of surprise on his face.
Zhang Yuanbai glanced sideways and asked with a smile: "Why do you have such an expression?"
"What did you say just now? Brother?" Xiao Tan shivered, his body trembling slightly, staring at the old man with white hair and childish face in front of him, and he asked the question in disbelief, which seemed to be accidental.
Zhang Yuanbai looked like he was damned, holding a wine bottle in his hand and looking at the crazy Guan Cheng in the hall with a doting look on his face.
Xiaotan's face darkened in anxiety. The old naughty boy dared to pretend to be serious at this time.
A pair of soft squeezes made a squeaking sound, but in Zhang Yuanbai's ears, they were full of angry cuteness.
Thirteen years.
Seeing that Xiaotan's eyes were filled with mist, Zhang Yuanbai said: "Thirteen years ago, I was here too, with a cup of human emperor's drunkenness and a mountain wild flower. It was originally an elegance, but I saw that the crape myrtle and stars were all gone. It is estimated that I saw a glimmer of life in it, and the benefit was here but it started in Yongwei City. So I went there at starry night, and happened to meet your mother who died of exhaustion during childbirth, and you only cried once because you were just born. Breathless and abandoned.”
"But who knows that you are still alive? The Datong royal family is also my descendant by marriage, and I estimate that you are the glimmer of life. A flash in the pan can turn a city upside down. Many miracles in the world happen in an instant."
Xiaotan's eyes were dim and full of tears, and he murmured: "So I'm not actually an orphan?"
"Golden branches and jade leaves, extraordinary swallows."
Zhang Yuanbai drank another glass of wine and couldn't help but feel a little sad, but how many people would believe the secret if he told it, and it might be best if he didn't believe it.
"But why have you never said anything for so many years? You told me that I was an orphan. I have a father and a brother. And why do you say you don't know every time I ask you?" Xiaotan's voice gradually changed from sobbing to roaring. .
Zhang Yuanbai stroked Xiaotan's head guiltily, but the latter avoided him bitterly.
Zhang Yuanbai sighed and said: "If I hadn't been nourished by the essence of the sun and the moon here day and night, how could you have survived to this day? Everything is destined by God, and even I can't go against it."
"Then why did you say it today? Do you want me to leave with him?"
Zhang Yuanbai was speechless.
But the silence made Xiao Tan feel nervous: "Are you really going to send me away?"
Zhang Yuanbai stood up, still looking like an immortal, but Xiao Tan felt that he was full of sadness.
After a long time, Zhang Yuanbai's voice broke the calm: "I have worked hard and even changed my life to wait for the beginning of the great changes in the world. Now my wish has been fulfilled. I have been tired of holding on for all these years. It's time to rest."
Xiaotan was already smart, so how could he not understand the words in this sentence? He couldn't help but said nervously: "Grandpa!"
Zhang Yuanbai raised his hand to interrupt and said calmly: "I don't know why you are the only variable in life. In the past thirteen years, I have tried my best. Although I can't eradicate your congenital physical deficiency, you still can't survive for seventy or eighty years. There’s a problem, spying on the secrets will be counterattacked, and my time has come!”
Xiaotan shook his head wildly and kept mumbling no. His body was shaking uncontrollably, and tears poured out like a bursting dam.
"Is it because of him?" Xiaotan pointed at Guan Cheng who couldn't hold on and fell and asked with a hopeful look on his face: "Let's send them all away, okay? Grandpa, I don't want any brother. Grandpa is the only one I can remember." A relative, I must be an orphan, I must be your grandfather!"
Xiaotan suddenly rushed over and hugged Zhang Yuanbai's arm, shaking it constantly.
Zhang Yuanbai smiled and said: "Silly boy, grandpa has protected you for thirteen years, which is incredible. Now that your brother is here again, it can be said that he has given an account to the late emperor. It's time for grandpa to go. Two hundred years old bastard I'm an old man. If he continues to live, he will be punished by God. Wouldn't that mean he has lost the dignity of Grandpa Tiance, General Wu Yaotian?"
"I have some tips and books in the cabinet. You can give them to him early tomorrow morning." Zhang Yuanbai put his hand on Xiao Tan's head and said softly with a smile: "You always said your name was Zhang Tan before, but that's not right. Yes, your name should be Guan Tan, the princess of Datong, the most beautiful princess. If you have a chance, go to Yongwei City to see it. Your mother must miss you very much."
Xiao Tan shook his head crazily, and held his arms tighter and tighter, but the originally strong and warm arms did gradually relax, and slowly turned into light spots and began to drift away.
Xiaotan screamed, waving his hands constantly but unable to catch a single bit, until all the milky white light spots completely merged into darkness in the air.
"There must be something strange there. Follow me to investigate quickly." Liu Dong said excitedly in the distance, waving his big hand and followed by hundreds of infantry.
"Send the order for Brigade B to move quickly to the northwest. The rest of the brigades will assemble at this tent!" Sima Dutan, the rear army commander in the Jin Army's tent, was equally determined.
