Chapter 20 Ruixue New Year

On the 29th day of the lunar calendar, the sky was rarely clear. Ying Guang got up early and went to Fengyi Hall to pick up Zhuge Yun and his servant. Ying Guangniang knew that a female guest was visiting and packed up the room a few days in advance. She was chatting with Zhuge Yun in the hall.

After a long time of chatting, everyone had used the meal after noon. Ying Guangniang went back to the back house to rest, and the rest of the people also dispersed, leaving only Ying Guang and Zhuge Yun.

"I really didn't expect that you were from the Yue clan." In the morning, Ying Guangzhao heard that Zhuge Yun was from the distant Yue clan and was shocked. He really didn't know how this weak woman came to Qin from thousands of miles away.

"I originally planned to find my father, but I had no idea. I could only take one step at a time. Unexpectedly, I picked you up on the side of the battlefield." Zhuge Yun said with a smile.

"God treats me well. I crawled out of the pile of corpses and was weak. Fortunately, I met you. Otherwise, even if I was not killed by the Chu army, I would have to take advantage of the wild wolf in the mountains." Ying Guang sighed, "I will use tea instead of wine, and I will toast you a cup."

"I have already drunk a lot during the meal just now." Zhuge Yun shook her head with a wry smile, took a sip of the hot tea in the cup, and said, "There is a certain number in the dark. The leader will survive the disaster and make a fortune in the future."

"Me? I just want to live a peaceful and stable life, take good care of my mother, and live my life in a simple way." Ying Guang stretched out his waist to make himself more comfortable.

"There is a saying that people are in the world and cannot help themselves. Even if you want to retreat bravely, there will always be someone pushing you forward." Zhuge Yun smiled faintly and said.

"Hi, I won't mention these things during the New Year. What are your plans for next year?" Ying Guang rubbed his eyebrows and asked.

"I'm going to go back to Yuezhi. I've been out for too long, so I have to go back and take a look. My mother is still there." Zhuge Yun said.

Ying Guang was stunned and suddenly felt a faint feeling of loss in his heart. He wanted to catch it but didn't know where to start, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

For a moment, both of them stopped talking.

Zhuge Yun thought for a while and said, "After the New Year, it won't take long to go to the battlefield again. This time, you are the only battalion, but the military affairs are dangerous. Be careful in everything. This time no one can pick you up again." He sighed, "Maybe one day, I will come back to find you."

Ying Guang said: "If I go to Yuezhi, how can I find you?"

Zhuge Yun smiled and said, "If you go to Yuezhi, you will definitely find mine." After saying that, he didn't say more.

Unlike previous years, this year's Spring Festival was particularly lively. Yingguang's courtyard was full of crowds. Everyone came with veterans from Molin Camp. Everyone was drinking and welcoming the new year. After midnight, they all lined up to greet Yingguang Niang, and they were so happy that Yingguang Niang couldn't stop paying New Year's greetings to her. Fortunately, Yingguang was prepared and had enough red envelopes. Montaigne also sneaked over to make trouble, chasing Yingguang's butt and insisted on asking for a big red envelope. Zhuge Yun and Qiaoer covered their mouths and laughed secretly. Unexpectedly, when they waited for the last two biggest red envelopes were for their master and servant.

It was until the sky turned blue and the crowd gradually dispersed. Ying Guang took a nap and took Dian Jun and Xu Sixie to the Mongolian Mansion to pay New Year's greetings. He saw a row of people standing in front of the Mongolian Mansion from afar, but the officials of various departments in the army came to line up early.

Dian Jun opened his mouth, his face full of surprise, "This, this, there are too many people."

Ying Guangxiao said, "This is human nature, but I didn't expect that we were still too late."

Just as he was about to go to the rear of the line, he saw a carriage coming from afar. When he walked closer, Montaigne poked his head out with two dark circles and said, "Brother Ying got up so early, what are you doing in line here?"

"Look at you, you just drank a lot. Look carefully. This is your family. Let's greet the old marquis!" Ying Guang was so amused that this kid probably hadn't sobered up yet!

"Let me see, hey, it's really! It's all the blame for those turtle grandsons. It makes me feel so uncomfortable! Why are you still queuing up? Get in the car!"

The people lined up next to him looked at Ying Guang and others who got on the carriage enviously. If they were able to get along with the major general, they would be destined to be successful in the future! They had to walk around Ying Guangduoduo.

It was just a pity that the carriage was squeezed and four strong men were trembling. Under the urging of the coachman, the carriage slowly started and slowly entered the side door.

There were still guests in the main hall. Montaigne's father, Mengjun and Mengwu, were receiving generals in the army. Most people would not see Mr. Meng. However, Montaigne brought Ying Guang to the back hall. Mr. Meng Chong Meng was drinking hot tea. Seeing Montaigne, Ying Guang came in. The old man smiled and said, "I was thinking about who dared to disturb the old man's purity, but I didn't expect that you two little monkeys would jump out!"

Ying Guang and Montaigne bowed and said, "Ying Guang (grandson) is here to wish the old man a happy new year."

"Haha, OK! OK!" Meng Chong smiled, touching his beard, "Win Guang, the king will order the use of troops in Zhao State after the New Year. Are you interested in this vanguard position?"

Ying Guangda was happy: "I will be determined to be unfair!"

"Don't rush to agree. You have to fight for the position of vanguard yourself. I'm just giving you some convenience within the rules. After fifteenth, there will be a big competition in the army, and only the winner can get the position of vanguard!"

Ying Guang clasped his fists, "The last one will do his best!"

Montaigne muttered, "I want to be a pioneer, too."

Meng Chong smiled and said, "If Ying Guang wins, let you go with him!"

Montaigne was then happy and pounded his chest hard, "Grandpa, don't worry! I will definitely not weaken the majesty of our Meng family!"

The two sides talked for a while, and seeing that the old Marquis Meng looked tired, Ying Guang quickly stood up and said goodbye. The old Marquis waved his hand, "Tian'er, you send Ying Guang to you."

Ying Guang and Montaigne came outside the mansion, and Montaigne said, "Brother Ying, you must win in the military competition!"

Ying Guang said: "I haven't asked you yet, what are the competitions?"

"Three big scores, the first game is to compete for military strategy, the second game is to compete for the generals, and the third game is to compete for the battlefield." Montaigne said with his fingers counting, "After three games, the best person is the vanguard, and the rest are arranged for different military positions according to their performance."

"After the Pioneer is selected, the Pioneer Camp flag will be awarded, and this flag will not be taken back. It can be said that this is the glory of all the soldiers of the Pioneer Camp, so the competition will be particularly fierce. Our elite soldiers and generals of the Qin Dynasty will participate at that time."

Ying Guang smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I will definitely win the vanguard. I will bring you with me then! Just keep your heart in your stomach."

Montaigne smiled and said, "Okay! Then let Zhao see which army can be the best in the world!"
