Chapter 147: Gentlemen do something

Xiao Chen didn't make it, and everyone said that there were many heroes, let alone a dandy like Xiao Chen.

As night fell, Prince Xiao, who had gone to and from the toilet dozens of times, could finally sit quietly on the railing of the corridor and look at the stars. For a moment, Xiao Chen actually felt lucky to have survived the disaster, but if

Someone asked Xiao Chen if he would have eaten that bowl of rice if he had known he was like this. Xiao Chen's answer must be yes.

Rule 3 of the Dandy Code: You can never lose face.

Guan Chi's living habits were the same as those of the common people. He had two meals a day and had nothing to eat at night. Ye Han, who stuffed himself with a few steamed buns, couldn't stand his hunger and went out to look for food.

Guan Chi, who didn't want to eat, and Xiao Chen, who couldn't eat, were the only ones left in the hospital.

Guan Chi carried a load of water, soaked the collapsed courtyard wall with water, and then piled it up with skill. It was obvious that Guan Chi's craftsmanship was very good. He could probably compare with professional craftsmen. It must not have been the first time he had done this.

It’s time to repair the walls and repair the courtyard.

Xiao Chen just stared blankly at the night sky and then at Guan Chi, both of which were very boring.

Just thinking about Ye Han telling him that Du Yingying and the others would be arriving tomorrow, the listless Xiao Chen suddenly felt a little more hopeful, thinking that he would just have to endure it a little longer and get through tonight.

After working hard for a long time, Guan Chi finally stopped his "big business" of building the wall, maybe because he was tired, and then said to Xiao Chen, "Look at the yard for me," and then walked out of the yard on his own.

But Guan Chi came back not long after, carrying something in his hand.

When he came to Xiao Chen's side, Guan Chi threw the things in his hand to Xiao Chen and said with an arrogant expression: "Eat some, this is the best thing within five miles."

It wasn't until this moment that Xiao Chen discovered that the thing was actually a roast chicken.

For the pampered Prince Xiao, he has little regard for roast chicken, and he doesn't know how much it costs. But Xiao Chen knows that most people in this world cannot eat a complete meal of meat even on New Year's Eve.

.Guan Chi, who makes a living by blacksmithing, must have spent most of his savings to buy this roast chicken.

"This..." Xiao Chen pointed at the roast chicken in front of him, feeling a little at a loss.

Guan Chi grinned, sat on the railing opposite Xiao Chen and said: "I know that you are a pampered prince, and being able to eat the food of us roughnecks is considered to be a embarrassment to you. Isn't this my intention to apologize?

"

Xiao Chen nodded and said nothing.

Guan Chi raised his head, as if thinking of something, and said: "I heard from Ye Han that the Guizhou State is going to use troops against the Wei State?"

Xiao Chen nodded and said, "That's right."

Guan Chi chuckled and said: "Once a fight breaks out, the people in this world will not be able to eat anything today. How many people will die. I am older than you. I have seen countless wars and chaos, and the corpses

It’s miserable all over the fields.”

Xiao Chen didn't speak, just looked at the roast chicken in front of him quietly. For Xiao Chen, he didn't know what it felt like to be hungry, nor did he know what the scene in Guan Chi's mouth looked like. He just knew it without thinking, that was definitely

It is a scene like purgatory on earth.

After coming back to his senses, Guan Chi continued: "I also heard that the general of your Wei State colluded with the Qian State and asked you to open the city gate and let the Guizhou Army into the Wei State, but you refused?"

Xiao Chenruo said with deep meaning: "I don't know the scene of the troubled times, but I know that today's Yong'an lives and works in peace and contentment. It is the hard work of my old man's life. Bai Qi once told me that if I let the Guizhou army enter the city, I can be safe in Yong'an."

I'm fine, but I also understand the truth that there are no intact eggs when the nest is overturned. I believe that the soldiers and civilians of Yong'an will agree with my choice."

Guan Chi said with emotion: "You are a good prince!"

Xiao Chen smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly and said: "This is the first time in so many years that you have praised me so much."

Guan Chi waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, the world's standards for evaluating heroes are based on achievements and fame. But how do they know what the lowest level of people need?"

"Although you haven't done anything, your heart alone is already commendable."

"But have you ever thought about how much you have to sacrifice to make this decision? Do you really think your Yong'an 5,000 black armors can stop the tens of thousands of Guizhou's cavalry?"

Xiao Chen smiled and said: "Do you also think that I am trying to do something for my chariot, not overestimating my own capabilities?"

Guan Chi didn't speak, but his slightly joking expression said everything.

Xiao Chen put down the roast chicken in his hand and said with a smile: "So, I'm here to ask for your help. Although Xiao Chen is young and frivolous, he is not stupid. With my Yong'an power alone, how can I stop him?

You can live in Guizhou."

"I understand better that with my senior brother here, no matter how hard it is, I can survive this storm. If I can't survive, I can still go to Mount Wudao and become a Taoist priest to avoid the limelight. But what about Yong'an? Yong'an's hundreds of thousands of people

Where are the people?"

"They can't leave. If I can't hold on, they can only be killed by the sword and live a homeless life. Just like the roast chicken you gave me, they will be slaughtered by others."

He puffed up his chest and said loudly: "Xiao Chen is not talented, but he also wants to work hard for Yong'an."

Guan Chi took a deep breath and said with confusion and surprise: "Is it worth it?"

Xiao Chen murmured: "I really hate those scholars, but sometimes I feel that what they say is quite right. There is a saying..."

"A gentleman has something to do and something not to do."

Guan Chi was slightly startled, obviously shocked by Xiao Chen's words.

But Guan Chi soon regained his composure, stood up, waved his hands and left, sighing: "I'm just a rough man, I don't understand what you say about a gentleman and not a gentleman. I only know that people need to drink water when they are thirsty, and when they are hungry, they need water."

You have to eat and live to do things. In my opinion, you are stupid."

Looking at Guan Chi's back, Xiao Chen murmured in a low voice: "Stupid? That's what a playboy like me can do."

"How about it, talking to Guan Chi is like playing the piano to a cow?" Ye Han's voice suddenly came to his ears, which startled Xiao Chen.

In the darkness, Ye Han walked out slowly. It was obvious that Ye Han had come back a long time ago.

Looking at Ye Han, Xiao Chen breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Senior brother, can you stop being so elusive?"

Ye Han shrugged and said, "Really? I've been back a long time ago, it's just that you didn't notice me."

Looking at Guan Chi, who returned to the yard and continued to carry water to build the wall, Ye Han whispered: "He is just an out-and-out common man. You can't understand these big principles if you tell him."

Xiao Chen looked at Ye Han and said, "Do you understand these big principles?"

Ye Han spread his hands and said, "I don't understand, but I can listen."

Xiao Chen shook his head and smiled: "It's like I didn't say anything."

Ye Han smiled sheepishly, and suddenly approached Xiao Chen mysteriously and said, "Guess what news I got when I went out just now?"

Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Li Luo was attacked?"
