MTL - Of All the Transmigrations, Why Am I a Prisoner?-Chapter 128 Get into trouble when you're drunk
Li Changtian left Qin Jueming's tent, and on the way to his residence, he heard several patrolling soldiers talking in a panic.
"After the Beidi people break the city, will they really slaughter the city?"
"They are so cruel, they should be."
"I heard that some people secretly defected to Bei Di in order to survive."
"Cough cough!"
When a soldier noticed Li Changtian approaching, he quickly silenced the other young soldiers and continued patrolling with a serious expression.
Li Changtian was confused and didn't pay attention to what they were saying.
He walked back to his tent and took out the wine left by the guard from under the bed.
Now they are stuck in Shuofang City, where they live in the yard of a borrowed private house, but there are Chaimen and paths.
If there was no war, it would just be an ordinary wooden shed with a fence.
Li Chang was speechless and silent, staring at the jar of wine, his eyes hurt.
He caressed the dry mud of the wine sealing with his hand, remembering what Qin Jueming said just now, and suddenly wanted to open the sealing mud immediately, drink the strong wine and get drunk.
Li Changtian raised his hand, ready to knock open the seal, but stopped again.
He thought about it and thought about it, but still hid the jar of wine.
Li Changtian walked out of his residence and found a pile of dry firewood and hay in the corner of the yard, on the side of the firewood house.
The patrolling soldiers should all go to the vicinity of the city gate wall, which is quiet now.
Li Changtian lay down on the haystack, put his hands behind his head, and looked at the sky.
The last quarter moon is like a hook, the night dew is on the body, and the cold wind is blowing.
Li Changtian looked at the moon for a while, then picked up the Ping Tilian jade pendant that was engraved on his neck.
The jade pendant cuddled against his chest day and night, still warm.
Li Changtian picked up the jade card and set it against the bright moon, thinking of people when he saw things.
At this moment, Li Changtian's ears suddenly heard the slight creak of his boots stepping on the frost and weeds.
Li Changtian turned his head to look in confusion, and then sat up all of a sudden.
He thought he might be too sleepy and tired, and fell asleep while lying on the haystack.
Otherwise, why did the old man fall into a dream, solve his lovesickness knot, and eliminate his lovesickness.
Yan Shu was dressed in moon-white brocade clothes, stepped on moire-patterned black soap boots, and wore a three-foot green front on his waist. The cool moonlight shone behind him, and he stepped forward.
Li Changtian stared at him blankly until Yan Shu walked in front of him.
Li Changtian asked, "Am I dreaming?"
Yan Shu didn't answer, and sat down on the haystack beside Li Changtian, reaching out and gently holding his wrist.
On a skin-to-skin kiss, Li Changtian could feel the warmth of Yan Shu's fingertips and palms, and the cold wind on a winter night made it warm wherever he touched.
That's something you can't feel in a dream.
Li Changtian knew because he had dreamed about it.
In the dream, they repelled Bei Di, sang triumphantly all the way, and returned to the capital.
He ignored all the military orders and rules, ran directly to Yan Shu's mansion, picked up the jade pendant carved in the shape of a tilian, and asked Yan Shu.
"What do you mean by giving me this jade pendant? No matter what you answer, I want you to know one thing, I like you."
In the dream, Yan Shu sometimes became angry, and sometimes showed contempt.
But more often, Yan Shu would reach out and hug him.
But in the dream, I can't feel the warmth of the skin, only the endless emptiness and unreality.
What's more, all of this is in Kyushu, where the borders are peaceful, the mountains and rivers are safe, and the soldiers are facing the sky.
rather than the turbulent present day.
"Really...it's really you..." Li Changtian held Yan Shu's wrist instead, nostalgic for the warmth.
Although he tried his best to restrain his emotions, his voice still trembled slightly.
"Yan Shu, why are you here?"
Yan Shu said lightly, "The rebellion against the party in the imperial court is over. I heard that the frontier war is urgent. I ask the emperor for orders to lead reinforcements to send food and grass to Shuofang."
"Yan Shu." Li Changtian said in a deep voice, "You shouldn't have come. Although reinforcements and provisions have been delivered, Shuo Fang is still very dangerous now, and Bei Di may break into the city at any time."
Yan Shu looked at Li Changtian's eyes, his eyes were firm, and his tone was sonorous.
"That's why I'm here."
Li Changtian was stunned.
He suddenly took a deep breath and smiled towards Yanshu.
Yan Shu was slightly startled.
Li Changtian loves to laugh, whether it is hearty, unruly, or wanton, and Yan Shu has seen these smiles.
In addition to such a high-spirited smile, Yan Shu had also seen a smile on Li Changtian's face.
A bitter smile.
At that time, Li Changtian was misunderstood, and after being arrested and tortured, he didn't cry or howl, just laughed.
But now, the smile on Li Changtian's face is like the look of a helpless smile after the extreme grief has passed.
Such Li Changtian made Yan Shu feel inexplicably uneasy.
Yan Shu was about to ask what happened, but saw Li Changtian lying on the haystack again.
With his hands behind his head, he smiled and said, "Oh, I underestimated you."
Li Changtian's tone was relaxed, his smile was shallow, and the wry smile was fleeting on his face, as if it was just Yan Shu's illusion.
"Li Changtian." Yan Shu frowned slightly, looking down at Li Changtian lying on the haystack, "What's wrong with you?"
"Me?" Li Changtian rolled his eyes, "I'm fine, by the way, I've been apart for so long, let me tell you the interesting things I've seen these days? Do you listen?"
Yan Shu: "Listen."
Although the march was tedious, it was also fun.
For example, every time Li Zhanfeng and Changsun Bai quarreled, Li Changtian would secretly write down in his mind who would win the fight, and yesterday, Changsun Bai had won nine fights, while Li Zhanfeng had only won six times.
For example, he went to pick wild plums he saw on the march with the soldiers he had a good relationship with, but the plums were poisonous.
Another example, he and Wei both secretly went to the place where the wine was hidden...
Li Changtian didn't mention to Yan Shu that Wei Ji had sacrificed. He smiled and told anecdotes, as if he would go there with Wei Ji to find wine tomorrow.
"Master dug out the wine, slapped the sealed mud, and took two gulps." Li Changtian said, "Hey, don't look at me like this, I didn't drink it. At that time, when Master advised me to drink, I thought..."
Li Changtian suddenly paused.
He glanced at Yan Shu, hesitated for a moment, but still pretended to say frankly: "I first thought that you hate alcohol, and then thought of the military prohibition, so I didn't drink it."
When Li Changtian finished speaking, there was a moment of silence between him and Yan Shu.
"Actually I..." After a long while, Yan Shu spoke slowly, "I don't hate the smell of alcohol."
"Ah?!" Li Changtian looked confused, "But at the White Emperor City Inn at that time, you clearly said that you hated alcohol."
"You..." Yan Shu paused and said, "Let's think about that day."
Li Changtian pondered for a long time, but still did not notice the reason.
Yan Shu was quick to speak for a while, but now he regrets it, and said, "Forget it, don't think about it, it's getting late, go back and rest."
"Okay." Li Changtian replied.
Yan Shu stood up and stretched out his hand to Li Changtian who was lying on the haystack.
After Li Changtian was slightly startled, he took Yan Shu's hand and used his strength to stand up.
"Thank you, thank you." Li Changtian smiled at Yan Shu, a kind of wanton laughter, and he couldn't see the bitterness revealed in the previous moment.
He was serious and hid well.
The arrival of provisions and reinforcements reassured Shuofang's soldiers.
Yan Shu did not leave, but stayed in Shuofang, leading the army and managing the important affairs of the army.
Coincidentally, both generals Li Zhanfeng and Changsun Bai knew Yan Shu.
Yan Shu is Qin Jueming's adopted son, and the eldest grandson Bo, who has followed Qin Jueming for many years, naturally knows him. Not only does he know him, but they are close and talk well.
Li Zhanfeng was acquainted with Yan Shu after he took office in the capital.
With Yan Shu participating in the decision, the disputes between the two were less than before.
Since Qin Jueming finished talking with Li Changtian that day, he seldom showed up, as if he was recovering from illness.
But the arrival of rations and reinforcements did not change the precarious situation of Shuofang City. Beidi became more and more brave in battle, and the siege of the city became more and more frequent. Troops were dispatched to harass the city many times, causing everyone to feel restless and uneasy.
What made Yan Shu feel uneasy was more than that.
He found that Li Changtian had become preoccupied with his whereabouts.
Yan Shu couldn't find anyone several times, and when he asked about the other soldiers, he didn't know where Li Changtian was.
Moreover, Li Changtian was always in a daze. Sometimes Yan Shu called his name several times before Li Changtian came back to his senses.
Even so, every time Yan Shu asked him what happened, Li Changtian just shook his head and said it was all right.
It was under such circumstances that the second batch of grain sent from the capital was about to arrive.
Shuofang City needs to send a general to respond.
Li Changtian took the initiative to ask Ying to **** grain and grass back to Shuofang.
Qin Jue clearly agreed.
On that day, Li Changtian led three thousand troops and left the city of Shuofang.
But he never returned.
That night, Yan Shu lit a candle and stood in front of his tent for a whole night, until his body was covered with light frost and his body was cold.
On the second day, news came, and as expected, something really happened.
The soldiers who transported food and received the goods were ambushed by the Beidi people, and almost the entire army was annihilated.
But Li Changtian came back.
And to everyone's surprise, he suffered only minor injuries.
The food and grass were robbed, and Shuofang City began to panic again, and anxiety and fear gradually filled the air.
On the same day, Li Zhanfeng called several generals to discuss important matters, and the first sentence he said was.
"I think there is a traitor."
Li Zhanfeng's speculation was indeed justified. If someone had not leaked the secrets of such important matters as food and grass transportation, how could Bei Di be able to ambush in advance?
But Li Zhanfeng didn't say who he suspected, just said viciously.
"If I catch him, I'll cut him into eight pieces."
Three days later, Li Changtian discovered that all the soldiers who were close to him were beginning to distance themselves from him.
Because after the forage was taken, he was the only one who came back alive.
And he was barely injured.
Gossip and rumors in the military began to rise.
Li Changtian didn't care, he did what he had to do every day.
Another three days, severe winter, severe cold.
The reverse of the cold air is called the Great Cold.
That night, Li Changtian took out the jar of wine that Wei Ji had left behind, knocked on the mud, and poured out two bowls of wine. In this way, half of the jar of spirits was finished.
Li Changtian felt that he should be drunk.
That night, Qin Jueming called Yan Shu to the tent and chatted with him.
There are trivial things to talk about, and there are big things about the family and the country.
Qin Jueming often had a long talk with Yan Shu like this, so Yan Shu didn't feel anything wrong.
But when Yan Shu left, he seemed to faintly hear Qin Jueming say sorry to him.
The apology was vague, and Qin Jueming coughed immediately, making it impossible for Yan Shu to ask questions and raise doubts.
Yan Shu walked out of Qin Jueming's tent, looked at the bright moon in the sky, thought about the recent rumors, got up and walked to Li Changtian's residence.
