NFBE Chapter 132 Liangcheng Restaurant
Chapter 132 Liangcheng Restaurant
This proposal was passed unanimously.
The group entered a small restaurant called "Liangcheng Restaurant". The name is really wonderful.
This small restaurant is the largest store on the main street of Liangcheng. It has a second floor and is also the first restaurant they saw along the way.
When the waiter came over, Kong Mao asked curiously, "Who gave your family this name? It's quite interesting."
The waiter smiled and said, "This name was given by our boss. You may not know that this is Liangcheng, and there is only one restaurant in our city. Isn't it just right to name it Liangcheng Restaurant?"
"I see." Jiang Guangbai nodded, "So, the name of Liangcheng Restaurant is a little interesting."
At this time, the sound of horse hooves and a little noise came from outside the building.
The waiter said, "It should be the soldiers stationed outside the city who have entered the city."
When several elementary school students heard what the waiter said, they got off their chairs, swarmed to the window, and looked out to see what was happening on the street.
Wei Wen had already rushed out. The students were curious, but Wei Wen was passionate about everything in the military camp.
This would be a chance to see with my own eyes the soldiers guarding the border, and he would be the first to run ahead.
Shan Ge and the others were also slightly tempted. Old Master Jiang spoke up, "Go and see if you want to. If you miss this opportunity, you may not be able to see it next time."
The waiter also said, "Yes, the soldiers usually live in tents outside the city and rarely come into the city."
Qin Chaoyan ordered the dishes and gave the waiter a small piece of silver. The young man happily went to the kitchen to order the dishes.
Qi Cheng stood on tiptoe, his face serious yet with a hint of anticipation.
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, and he could see clearly the man in the lead.
"Father!"
Qi Chengqing couldn't help but shout out, the leader stopped advancing, and the troops behind also stopped.
King Zhan's gaze fell on Qi Cheng's little face, and his pupils shrank.
Why is he here!
The king was anxious, frightened, and a little panicked. He pursed his lips and looked at the deputy general beside him and the soldiers behind him.
"Full speed ahead!"
He rode in front, and the officers behind him rode their horses to catch up.
Qi Cheng pursed his lips, his eyes dimmed. Xiao Changkong and Wei Zhao beside him pulled his hands. Chen Zhaoxi asked, "Qi Cheng, is the fierce-looking man sitting on the horse just now your father?"
Chen Fengnian covered his mouth with his hand, his face slightly red.
"Hmm?" Chen Zhaoxi looked at his brother with his big clear eyes, his eyes full of confusion.
Chen Fengnian looked at Qi Cheng apologetically, "Sorry, just pretend you didn't hear him. I'll take him away now."
Everyone more or less noticed that Qi Cheng was in a bad mood, and they all moved their feet, wanting to leave the seat by the window for him, also wanting to give him some private space to relieve his emotions.
At this time, the waiter came up with a dish of mutton soup. Seeing them gathered around the window, he smiled kindly.
"Sir, you are so lucky. We just arrived in Liangcheng and saw the War King leading his troops back to the city." The waiter said, "The War King usually doesn't come back to the city easily. With such a large number of troops, it's possible that the Sha bandits in the north are going to start a rebellion again."
The waiter's words were very calm, as if he was saying that a family's chicken was lost and he was coming to cause trouble.
Jiang Guangbai couldn't help but ask, "May I ask, are the northern Sha bandits you are talking about soldiers from Beisha?"
The waiter grinned and said, "That's right. However, in Liangcheng, we have always called them the Sha bandits. They are a group of bandits who want to seize our Daqi city. They are neither generals nor soldiers."
Wei Wu looked at the smile on his face, pursed his lips, and asked, "If we really have to fight, and the two armies are at war, are you afraid?"
"Well, there is nothing to be afraid of. We were born and raised in Liangcheng, and we have long been accustomed to the shamelessness of those Shakou bandits. It is normal for them to come once or twice a year. The year before last, they came once a month to rob the city. If it weren't for the War King and the army, Liangcheng would have been captured long ago."
"Sir, don't worry. This time, the Sha bandits will definitely be driven away by our Daqi Army. You don't have to be afraid. Liangcheng is quite safe."
After saying this, the waiter reached out and scratched his head.
"Sir, I'm going to the kitchen to see if the food is ready. Please wait a moment."
After hearing his words, Qin Chaoyan and others present were deeply moved.
No matter what time it is, there are always some people who carry the burden for the majority. Soldiers are always the most lovely people in a country.
Wei Chu said: "The title of War King was given to him by the emperor himself after he won hundreds of battles. Over the years, with him around, Cisha in the north has not taken advantage."
Seeing Qin Chaoyan and a group of students looking at him with curiosity, their eyes were sparkling, waiting for him to continue.
Wei Chu pursed his lips and said some more things he knew.
"In the past, towns in the north suffered two or three invasions from the Beisha Islands each year, and life for ordinary people in the towns was even more difficult."
"Where is the general who was guarding the border at that time?" Xiao Changkong asked angrily.
"At that time, our Daqi was still in chaos. After His Majesty ascended the throne, he stationed a general at the border, and the people at the border had a better life."
"Only after the War King comes to the Northern Frontier and beats up the Northern Sand soldiers several times, the lives of the people at the border will be stabilized."
The waiter who came to serve the dishes heard Wei Chu's words and echoed a few words. Jiang Yuandao and An Qi and others also talked about some of the things they knew about the border town.
After the meal, the students developed a deep respect for the soldiers guarding the city after hearing what Wei Chu and Jiang Yuandao said.
The dullness in Qi Cheng's eyes also dissipated a lot, and he regained some of his spirit.
After finishing the meal and paying the bill, the group left the restaurant and planned to go to the Yunlai Inn that the waiter mentioned.
Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, Qin Chaoyan and his group were stopped by a strong-looking young man.
"Excuse me, are you a guest from Yingtian Academy in Kyoto?" he asked. Seeing the vigilant looks of An Qi and others, Zheng Li, the visitor, hurriedly made it clear that he meant no ill will.
Zheng Li explained, "I am here to invite you to my house for a chat on the orders of my master. I have no ill intentions."
Wei Chu came close to Qin Chaoyan and whispered, "This man is from the military, so he should be the one sent by the War King to invite us."
Qin Chaoyan also lowered his head and replied, "Then let's go and take a look?"
"Yeah. I guess something's up."
Zheng Li was a little nervous. He didn't know whether they believed him or not, nor did he know why the marshal asked him to hide his identity and not let him directly reveal who they were.
It's not clear, so it's normal to be regarded as a liar or something. Zheng Li smiled bitterly and thought: These people seem to be quite smart, they probably won't believe him and follow him.
