Chapter 9 The persistence of trust

This time, Wei Xiaobai asked Xue Qi again whether he believed in him or not.

"Faith!" Xue Qi nodded heavily, then stood up and clasped his fists: "Mr. Prince Consort, this matter is a matter of utmost importance. If there is such a strong wind, then our camp will be gone, not to mention that all the objects will be gone. I am afraid that many people will lose their lives. Thanks to Prince Consort for this wine. Xue Qi will report to His Highness."

"Yeah!" Wei Xiaobai nodded and picked up the wine glass himself.

Xue Qi first found Zou Feng, the general of the Central Army. Zou Feng asked, "Where did you know that there will be a strong wind?"

"What the prince consort said."

"Ha, he said." Zou Feng stopped talking after he finished speaking. Xue Qi became anxious: "General, the strong wind can blow people away."

"You go and do your own business. You have made great efforts to deal with the disease of disagreement these days. Let's do it."

"General!"

Zou Feng stood up: "Xue Qi, you are also an old man from the Princess' Mansion. You have been a personal guard in the Princess' Mansion a few years ago. You don't know what Wei Guang is like in Luojing. He just pretends to be a gust of wind, so it's fine to listen. Go, if you are tired, go and rest."

Xue Qi was anxious: "General, there is really a strong wind."

"I understand, I understand." Zou Feng signaled Xue Qi to retreat.

Xue Qi stood there and looked at Zou Feng, then turned around and ran out.

After a while, a personal soldier came over: "General, General Xue Lang went to the tent of the Sixth Camp."

"This slut!" Zou Feng was shocked and quickly asked someone to pull a horse and chase him.

Half a quarter of an hour later, outside the gate of Li Zhaoning, the Sixth Camp.

Xue Qi just ran outside the tent and was stopped by Zou Feng.

Zou Feng stood outside the door, kicked Xue Qi and said loudly: "Your Highness, the general is wrong. The general is not in strict management. Xue Qi did not report it and collided with Your Highness. The general went back to discipline him."

Xue Qi was anxious: "Your Highness, there will be strong winds that can blow the big trees."

In the tent, Li Zhaoning put down the file in his hand and glanced at Yu Zhengqing.

Yu Zhengqing said: "Your Highness, you have reported storms in the south over the years, and this wind is indeed strong. If there is such a strong wind, you have to be careful."

Li Zhaoning then ordered: "Get in and speak."

Zou Feng and Xue Qi entered the tent, and Xue Qi said hurriedly: "Your Highness, there is a strong wind, a strong wind that can blow people away."

Li Zhaoning asked lightly: "Who said that?"

"Mr. Prince!"

Zou Feng stepped forward to speak, but Li Zhaoning said, "As early in Luojing, I heard about the wind disaster in the south. The strong wind could blow cattle and sheep away. It would be better to believe that this matter is there. I will send an order to start the camp immediately and find a shelter. Important materials must be heavily pressed. If you dig deep pits to preserve them, each camp will count the manpower and protect the women and children."

"Yes!" Zou Feng could only obey orders.

Those who had been tired for a day were already preparing to rest, but Li Zhaoning ordered all the people in the camp to set up immediately.

First, we sent a horse to find a suitable shelter, and then the camp began to pack various supplies into a cart, and then we distributed people to find the stones that were pressed.

Li Zhaoning wore armor and personally took command.

Only one person is idle.

Wei Xiaobai.

Wei Xiaobai found a hole in the giant tree in the woods, then hid in, and continued to eat his sashimi and taste the wine. Wei Xiaobai didn't care about the others, and the people here would not listen to their instructions.

After being busy all night, it can be said that except for Wei Xiaobai hiding in the tree hole to sleep, the rest of the people are all children involved in labor, let alone Li Zhaoning, who personally took charge of the battle.

The next day, it was dawn.

Everyone fell to the ground and slept on the ground, which was tired.

The sun rises, the sun is bright, and the breeze blows with a hint of coolness. People who have been tired all night sleep very well.

By noon, it was still calm.

Zou Feng found Xue Qi who was strapping supplies: "Lao Qi, this is what you are talking about. Is there wind in this weather like this?"

"General, the prince consort said that there will be a storm."

"Son-in-law, son-in-law, son-in-law!" Zou Feng's tone was extremely bad. He pointed at Xue Qi and scolded: "I said, don't you remember what he was like in Luojing? His words are credible, and fish can fly into the sky."

Xue Qi said nothing.

"You..." Zou Feng shook his hand and left in anger.

A soldier came to Xue Qi to comfort him while asking if there was really a strong wind, the kind that could blow people into the sky.

Xue Qi said, "The prince-consort asked me if I believed him, and I said I believed it. So the prince-consort told me that there would be a lot of wind. Since I believed it, then believe it to the end. Even if I lost my life, my loyalty would be the first."

"Yeah!" The soldiers nodded one after another.

That's right, since you believe it, you must be worthy of this faith.

In the evening, the wind was still calm, but there was a little salty smell in the wind. Xue Qi was called by Li Zhaoning, who originally planned to ask what Wei Xiaobai said at that time, and how long will the wind come?

But who would have thought that Xue Qi would like to give him the knife given to him by Li Zhaoning and the additional military rank: "Your Highness, my Xue Qi is a big soldier. I have never read a book, and I know how to write my name if I know the words. I believe what the prince-consin said. If it is wrong, your highness will be beaten and punished, and I will accept the punishment."

"Forget it, just think it's a day off, go down."

Xue Qi is an old soldier in the Princess's Mansion. She is loyal and reliable, but she is very honest. Li Zhaoning understands that if the incident happened this time was really what the prince-consor Wei Guang said, she would not believe it, but she already knew that Wei Xiaobai was not Wei Guang, so she believed it.

I originally just wanted to ask, Feng would come that day.

Xue Qi was unable to ask Li Zhaoning again, and asking again would make Xue Qi feel cold. Li Zhaoning would give this trust to Xue Qi.

These three thousand old soldiers followed her with her, Li Zhaoning, to Qiongya here, and came to this exile place where people had been staying for a long time after staying for a long time.

Xue Qi retreated, but placed the knife and his new military rank outside Li Zhaoning's tent.

Xue Qi thought it was simple. Since he chose to believe it, then believe it to the end.

On the beach, Wei Xiaobai sat on a reef. When Xue Qi came, he was carrying a food box. He was here to deliver food, not to ask if Feng would come.

Wei Xiaobai gave Xue Qi a cigar: "There are a lot of criticisms about you in the camp, thinking that you believed me. I don't care. They believe it or not. You Xue Qi are interesting. I don't have much of this thing anymore. I couldn't bear it myself, so I came to try it."

Xue Qi held the cigar in both hands and looked puzzled: "Mr. Prince Consort, this thing is for edible."

"Eat?" Wei Xiaobai smiled, then pointed at himself: "Look, that's it!"

Wei Xiaobai ordered it for himself, and then also said to Xue Qi: "Don't suck it in, it's enough to taste it in your mouth. This is a good thing for the pure man, but unfortunately there is not much."

Xue Qi just grinned and smiled while holding the cigar given by Wei Xiaobai.
