Chapter 611 Going Home to Play Chess, Drink Tea, and Take Care of the Children
Tianbao and others have to go back to the Human King City to pick up people. If they delay in the military camp for one day, the journey will be shortened by one day.
To avoid any complications arising in the middle, if we go too late, godfather will really be in danger over there.
Duan Dao did not keep many of them, and personally sent them to the ferry from the military camp to the dock early the next morning.
Before leaving, the old man kept chattering, "You should pay attention to what I said and take the medicine I prescribed for you! It's a pity that grandpa didn't expect to meet a guy like you when he came out this time. I was unprepared and didn't bring many good medicines from home. Fortunately, there are all kinds of medicinal herbs in the barracks. You should take the medicine according to the prescription grandpa gave you. Make sure to boil at least one dose a day and take it! I will send you medicine when I come back from Hu Man! Remember, you really have a hidden disease. If you don't treat it well, you will suffer in the future!"
Not wanting to discourage the tall man too much, he didn't dare to say that those hidden diseases would shorten one's lifespan if they were not cured, in other words, a short life!
Fortunately, I have grandpa. It’s not a loss to be his son!
Having been together for many years to keep each other warm, the old man just rolled his eyes and Duan Dao knew what he was thinking.
He smiled and didn't pull the old man over. Instead, he took two steps forward and walked up to the old man, reaching out and hugging him. "Okay, I'll treat him well and I'll follow the doctor's orders."
The old man is old too.
Looks smaller than before.
It's good to have this personality. No need to change. I can always be a happy old man who is free and happy.
The ferry is waiting at the ferry crossing.
The four juniors stood at the bow of the boat and waved goodbye to Broken Blade, "Uncle Broken Blade, take care!"
He still had to catch the boat. Du Buqin rubbed his arms with his triangular eyes drooping, trying to shake off his discomfort. He walked away two steps and then turned back, "Take care, Ang. I promised that grandpa would come to see you soon!"
Broken Blade smiled, "Okay, take care of yourself too."
He didn't give any instructions to the younger generations, because he knew they would take good care of the old man.
The ferry slowly sailed away.
The children who had entered the awning suddenly rushed to the bow and shouted loudly.
First, the young man in white waved his arms, "Uncle Broken Blade, now that the world is at peace and the people are safe, you've been training for decades, maybe you should consider taking a break! Give the newcomers a chance to succeed!"
Su Wu cupped his hands around his mouth and said, "Uncle Broken Blade, you have been the commander-in-chief for decades, while Uncle Lu, Uncle Leshan, Uncle Zeng and the others have been deputy generals for decades. You should also feel sorry for them and give them some space so that they can perform well!"
Xiao Mi Sui put her hands on her hips and chuckled, "Uncle Broken Blade, Tubei Village has changed a lot now. There are so many more people and thousands of divine soldiers. Why don't you go back and see the world?"
Tian Bao stood between the three men and said loudly, "You're just sitting here doing nothing. Uncle Lu and the others have been familiar with the art of training and fighting for decades. Uncle Duan Dao, now that there's no war to fight, go home and play chess, drink tea, compete in martial arts, and take care of the children. We'll be waiting for you to come back!"
Broken Blade's thoughts froze in an instant, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he finally blurted out a few words, "A bunch of bastards!"
Lu Neng, Lu Leshan and Zeng Shun, who came to see him off from behind, wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, wanted to speak but didn't dare to, for fear that every syllable they uttered would be suspected of wanting to seize power and usurp the throne.
Only after watching the ferry disappear did Lu Neng and the others speak.
"General, the Emperor sent a letter asking you to return to Beijing and take up your post there. Why didn't you tell Du Lao and Tian Bao and the others?"
Broken Blade looked back and raised an eyebrow, "Why, are you all waiting for me to give up my position?"
Three, “…” That’s not the case, but it’s possible.
The general laughed heartily and returned to the camp with his hands behind his back. "When Tianbao and the others return safely from the barbarians, I will return to the capital to report. I will then retire to play chess, drink tea, compete in martial arts, and raise my children! By then, the position of Grand General will go to the most capable person. You all should perform well!"
Three, "..." Oh my, the general is so bad, he just wants to see them fighting among themselves.
The three rolled their eyes and started complaining behind the general.
"General, what you said is really insulting. You are old and you should retire. We are not young men either. Let's see who among us has no white hair on his head."
"I, Old Lu, am exactly sixty this year, no more, no less, just sixty years old. General, if you don't leave this year, I can't stay. Zeng Shun, how old are you this year?"
"Brother Lu, I'm ashamed to say I'm five years younger than you. So, if you calculate it this way, I haven't seen my parents, wife, and children for eight years. Hey, Leshan, you're the youngest of the three of us. How old are you, Leshan?"
"Oh, I'm forty-six this year. If I'm lucky enough to become a general, I can still live for another ten years. But my father has issued an ultimatum. If I don't go back, he will no longer consider me his son. General, tell me, am I being unfilial?"
General Yuan, “…”
…
Late May, night.
The Human Palace.
Yangxinju.
The Queen Mother was dressing in front of the mirror, untying her hair and jewelry, and was about to go to bed when suddenly a panicked cry from a palace maid came from outside the palace, "Your Majesty! The Queen Mother has gone to bed—"
"Get out of here!" King Human shouted angrily and rushed into the hall.
When Concubine Wang came out of the inner hall in a panic with her hair disheveled, he threw a yellowed volume in her face, his eyes cold and stern, and said to her with every word, "Concubine Wang, how dare you plot against me!"
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" The Queen Dowager glanced at the file that fell to the ground and her eyelids shrank slightly. It was the secret record of the Mohist school, the only copy she had stolen from the Mohist school.
The Queen Dowager picked up the file, her eyes filled with confusion and panic. "What happened to make the King so angry? Is it related to this file?"
"You're just pretending to be me!" The Hu Man King sneered and approached her, his eyes full of sinister intent. "My file clearly states that there are 50,000 divine weapons hidden where the Divine Weapon Map is! But when the people I sent found that place, it was empty. There was nothing there at all! Everything written in this file is false!"
Even the method of stopping the magic weapon is fake!
The palace guards searched the entire secret passage, and in the end they only found five thousand open sarcophagi!
Thinking of the report he had received, King Human was filled with murderous intent and wanted to kill the Queen Mother with one palm!
He had made plans to go treasure hunting after obtaining the map of the magic weapon. Even if he couldn't get the magic weapon, getting the method to restrain the magic weapon would be a huge gain.
But who knew that both of their plans would fail!
And because of a fake file, he offended Su Jiuni!
The Queen Dowager clenched her fingers, her heart filled with shock. She said in panic, "Your Majesty, due to the urgency of the situation, I stole this file and handed it directly to the Hu Man spy without even opening it. How could I know what was written inside, or whether it was true or false?"
After a pause, she continued to defend herself, "You said you didn't find the divine weapons, but there are indeed 5,000 divine weapons in the Central Plains. The legend of divine weapons cannot be false... Is it possible that the remaining 45,000 divine weapons are not non-existent, but were obtained by someone else first?"
The palace maids and eunuchs around them had already retreated. A palace lantern was lit in the hall. The two of them faced each other, and the air was quiet and silent.
The Hu Man King's cold gaze searched the old woman's face for a moment, and after a moment he sneered, "I really underestimated the Queen Dowager. You mean, the one who got there first was Su Jiuni? You want to see me take action again for this and confront Su Jiuni head-on? Do you think you are smart or do you think I am stupid?"
He suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Concubine Wang's neck. "If it's really Su Jiuni who got there first, I can only admit defeat! But just because I can fail more at Su Jiuni's hands doesn't mean I will fail more at you! Bai Xiaofeng doesn't care about your life or death at all. You're dreaming if you try to turn over and step on me!"
He swung his hand fiercely, and the old woman was thrown out like a rag. "You are the Queen Mother, but if I want to kill you, I can do it anytime, anywhere!"
The Queen Mother fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time, with her head lowered and her eyes filled with hatred.
