Chapter 24 Passing through the moat
Changsun Sheng looked at the pass being built in front of him and sighed very much!
Once you’ve passed here, you’re home!
"Captain Ren, after this, you have completed your mission!" Changsun Sheng sighed.
"Although we have only known each other for less than half a month, we can still be considered friends, right?"
"This...how does this happen?" Ren Xian said a little flattered: "Sir, you are the envoy of a country, but I am just a small cavalry captain!"
"Okay, friends are about heart-to-heart communication, not status. If you think highly of me, be my friend!" Changsun Sheng looked unhappy.
"Since you have said so, sir, I will give you a higher honor than you!" Ren Xian cupped his fists and said, "Sir, just call me Ren Xian. I don't have the words!"
"Haha, is this right? Ren Xian, my name is Ji Sheng, just call me Ji Sheng, no need to call me sir!" Changsun Sheng said with a hearty laugh.
"How about that?" When Ren Xian heard what the other party said, he felt it was a bit too much, so he said, "I'll call you 'Brother Sheng'!"
"That's okay! I won't embarrass you!" Changsun Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Ren Xian! What impact do you think our return will have on the country this time?"
"Brother Sheng, I don't know this either. I only know that with my one hundred and eight riders, I can level that small town!" Ren Xianxin said.
This is because Ren Xian is still brooding about what happened in that city!
"Haha, Ren Xian, you are still struggling!" Changsun Sheng said with a smile: "There should be a chance in the future!"
"Really? Brother Sheng, will there be a chance in the future?" Ren Xian looked at him expectantly and asked.
"You! What's the use of thinking so much now?" Changsun Sheng was also helpless towards this little brother, but he appreciated this aspect of the other person.
The group of people walked through the pass under construction and headed towards the inner camp.
The traces of Chang Sun Sheng and Ren Xian had long been reported to Di Qing and Lu Su by scouts.
After entering the main account, the two stood up and welcomed him: "Mr. Changsun has returned victorious. I have been waiting here for a long time!"
"General Di, Staff Officer Lu, and Fanlao are both here. I am about to leave to report to the monarch."
Chang Sun Sheng passed by the camp to say hello and to return the light cavalry brigade.
"I am returning this cavalry now, please accept it!"
Di Qing glanced at Lu Su, who nodded lightly, and then said: "Okay! Since Mr. Changsun has other important matters, we won't keep you here!"
After that, proceed with the handover procedures.
"General, staff, and subordinates are here to give orders!" Ren Xian solemnly took out a token and stepped forward.
"Ren Xian, your mission is complete!" Lu Su took the token and solemnly replied to Ren Xian!
When Di Qing saw that the handover was completed, he turned to Chang Sun Sheng and said, "I will send another team to escort you, Sir!"
After saying that, regardless of whether Chang Sun Sheng refused to accept it, he ordered to Ren Xian: "Ren Xian, I order you to lead a small team of light cavalry to escort the envoy to Tianqi City!"
"Subordinate, take the order!" Ren Xian cupped his fists and took the order!
Changsun Sheng looked at this scene and couldn't refuse directly. He had to raise his hand and salute and thanked: "I would like to thank the general for your kindness!"
Di Qing waved his hand and said, "As long as you don't blame me, sir!"
Lu Su also said: "Our general is a frank person. He will do whatever he thinks. Please forgive me, sir!"
Changsun Sheng said: "It's nothing, this is human nature! I'll take my leave now!"
"Sir, please go slowly. I won't send you off. Officer Lu, go and see him off for me!" Di Qing said to Lu Su.
Lu Su cupped his fists at Di Qing and said, "Okay, I'll go and see you off!"
Several people came out of the main tent. Lu Su took the war horse sent by his men and handed the reins to Changsun Shengdao with his own hands.
"Sir, the prime minister is really capable of supporting a boat! Thank you very much, sir!" Lu Su said gratefully.
"It's in the account. I won't say much. The general asked me to come down to see you off. The general is sorry. But there is no other way. The general can't just think about himself!"
"Haha, Staff Officer Lu, I know that this is nothing. It is what you deserve. I am just passing by!"
Changsun Sheng took the reins and smiled softly: "The monarch must know it, why do you do this?"
Lu Su said helplessly: "That's not what you said. The general and I are not just the two of us! It's one thing for the monarch to know, but it's another thing to do it or not!"
"Okay, we've almost sent him off. Staff Lu, please stay here while I take my leave!" Changsun Sheng saw that they had reached the gate of the camp, so he asked Lu Su not to go any further.
"Please! I wish you a safe journey, sir!" Lu Su raised his hand and bowed, saying goodbye.
"Thank you!" Changsun Sheng looked back and bowed in return.
Mount your horse, whip your whip, and gallop towards the south!
Lu Su didn't return to camp until he could no longer see the back of Chang Sun Sheng and his party!
…
Halfway through the road, Ren Xian followed Chang Sun Sheng, riding his horse and whipping his whip on the open road, and finally couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Sheng, what are you, the general, and Staff Lu talking about?"
Ren Xian couldn't say much in the camp, but halfway there, he finally couldn't help but ask the questions in his heart.
"Hahaha~!" Changsun Sheng laughed heartily, but did not answer Ren Xian's question.
"Brother Sheng? What's going on?" Ren Xian was so confused by Chang Sun Sheng's laughter that he couldn't understand.
Changsun Sheng slowly stopped laughing, thought about it, and still did not answer Ren Xian's question, but asked first.
"Ren Xian, tell me, without the escort of your team, I won't be able to return to the city?"
Ren Xian didn't even have to think about it and said directly: "Of course, I can definitely go back!"
"Brother Sheng, let's not talk about your martial arts skills. Let's just say that the monarch behind you can leave it to your escort team to ensure your safe return to the city!"
Changsun Sheng did not go on the mission alone, there was an escort team of more than ten people, and there was no danger after passing Tianma Pass!
In addition to protecting Chang Sun Sheng's safety, this escort team also has to protect two cars of gifts!
However, I didn’t expect that more than half of the two carts of gifts I had prepared were left behind, and very few were given away!
"Then tell me, why did General Di send you to escort me?" Changsun Sheng continued to ask.
Ren Xian said with a guilty conscience: "Could it be that the general and staff discovered that we have a good relationship, and then asked me to send you off on their behalf?"
"Uh...Ren Xian, in a war you not only need to be able to charge into battle, but you also need to be able to use your brain!" Changsun Sheng lectured Ren Xian. If the relationship hadn't been in place, he wouldn't have bothered to say anything!
"This is because you really think too much!" Changsun Sheng continued to explain: "It wasn't Staff Lu who sent me off just now, so why did I let you come! Moreover, you and I didn't even talk to each other in the camp, how could they
You know our friendship!"
