Chapter 403 Zhou Sheng Ru Gu 14
As night fell, the sky was covered with a black curtain as black as ink.

But Wang's army was ablaze with fire, and the cold of deep winter was dispelled by the warm fire.

Wang Jun on New Year's Eve was very lively.

In front of the main tent of Wang’s army, Zhou Shengchen sat at the top, with generals of Wang’s army on both sides.

After spending a few months together, Ling Xi had already gotten to know all the generals in Wang's army.

At the same time, Ling Xi had already won their respect with his medical skills.

Ling Xi and Feng Qiao sat down below, the two of them sitting together with two bowls of pepper wine in front of them.

In Beichen, there is a custom of drinking pepper wine during the New Year, which not only can dispel the cold and remove blood stasis, but also can pray for peace and harmony in the coming year.

This is a beautiful expectation for the future.

As time passed, the atmosphere on the field became more and more lively.

Ling Xi was also offered a few glasses of wine by some people, and she drank them all.

The old doctor has a good alcohol tolerance and loves to drink, so Ling Xi used to often drink with him. Over time, this body's alcohol tolerance has been trained.

So, even though she was young, she could already drink quite a bit.

Ling Xi knew that all the toasts at this moment were accepted by the generals. After all, everyone was restrained now. After the generals dispersed and sat together with the soldiers, that was the time to really drink.

"Doctor Ling, I offer you a bowl of this. If it weren't for Doctor Ling, I would have died long ago."

A general on the opposite side stood up, holding a wine bowl, and thanked Ling Xi in a loud voice.

Ling Xi remembered him. One of his arms was cut off on the battlefield and she was the one who reattached it to him.

This person is a rough guy with a hot temper, but he also respects people with strength. Ling Xi's medical skills also make him truly admired.

Ling Xi stood up calmly, also holding up the wine bowl, and saluted him from a distance, "General Chen, you are too polite. The general was killing the enemy on the battlefield, and Ling Xi was just doing his job."

After saying that, Ling Xi drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.

General Chen on the opposite side was also a straightforward person. He also drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp. He looked at Ling Xi and laughed loudly in a bold voice:

"Doctor Ling is straightforward."

After Ling Xi sat down, he patted his face.

She felt her face getting hot from the wine she had drunk.

Zhou Shengchen was sitting there and also saw General Chen toasting Ling Xi with wine.

He knew that Ling Xi had made everyone accept her.

It was not because of her life-saving grace to him, the little King of Nanchen, but because of her superb medical skills.

Zhou Shengchen stood up and picked up the wine bowl.

Everyone stood up and held up their wine bowls with both hands.

Everyone looked intently at the man standing at the head. He was the hero who protected Xizhou and the entire Northern Chen Peace.

It is the supreme belief of Xizhou and Wangjun.

Zhou Shengchen held the wine bowl and said loudly:
"Happy New Year! May there no more gun smoke across our country. May the people of Northern Chen live and work in peace and contentment, and may the smoke from cooking continue for thousands of miles."

Everyone echoed, "May there no longer be gunpowder smoke for a hundred miles across our country, may the people of Northern Chen live and work in peace, and may the smoke from cooking fires continue for a thousand miles."

Ling Xi looked at Zhou Shengchen, who was smiling in the firelight, from a few meters away. The warm firelight set off his soft eyebrows and eyes, making his facial features look even more profound.

He is so young, but he has been leading troops alone for several years without a single defeat.

In order to break the royal family's vigilance, he voluntarily gave up the royal surname, requested to stay in Xizhou for the rest of his life, and never set foot in Zhongzhou.

There is no more smoke of gunpowder in the country, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the smoke from cooking fires stretches for thousands of miles.

Every word of this wish is for Northern Chen and for the people.

No selfish motives.

Ling Xi felt that it was a great honor to have known such a brilliant person in her life. Only such a person could be admired by the people.

Others, no.

After several generals dispersed and sat together with their soldiers, the drinking that night began.

When the soldiers drink, they are not particular about details and just chat.

Of course, these people can only enjoy their drinking if they get drunk with the soldiers.

Ling Xi, Zhou Shengchen, Xie Chong, Hong Xiaoyu, Feng Qiao, Zhou Tianxing, Xie Yun and a dozen other people sat together. On the fire in the middle was a marinated roasted whole lamb, which was already sizzling with oil.

The aroma of the barbecue kept reaching Ling Xi's nose, and Ling Xi's eyes were glued to the roasted whole lamb.

Seeing this, Hong Xiaoyu couldn't help but jokingly said, "Look, Ah Xi is about to pounce on the barbecue."

The others also looked at Ling Xi and laughed, just in a purely teasing way, or even with a bit of doting.

Ling Xi's already rosy face became even redder after hearing Hong Xiaoyu's words. In the dim firelight, she looked like a juicy red apple, very cute.

She tugged at Hong Xiaoyu's sleeve and said in a soft and coquettish voice: "Sister Xiaoyu~"

How could Hong Xiaoyu resist Ling Xi's coquettish behavior? She quickly begged Ling Xi for mercy: "Okay, okay, sister won't make fun of us, Axi, anymore."

Xie Yun jumped up and down excitedly: "Ling Xi, Senior Brother, why haven't I seen you act like a spoiled child with me like this? How about you also call me Third Senior Brother?"

Ling Xi glared at Xie Yun and completely ignored him.

But to others, that look had no deterrent effect at all, as if a kitten showed its claws that had no offensive power.

She sat there wrapped in a cloak, like a white and tender dumpling.

Everyone around her is older than her, and when they look at this granddaughter/little sister, they feel pity and love in their hearts.

Zhou Shengchen's gentle gaze fell on her, with a hint of smile in his soft eyes.

After a while, the whole roasted lamb was ready, and the aroma became even more tempting.

Zhou Shengchen picked up a knife and started cutting the meat.

Everyone gave a large leg of lamb to Ling Xi without objection.

Ling Xi held a leg of lamb that was bigger than her face. She generously gave half of it to Feng Qiao and then began to eat happily.

Now she was just a little girl, and she felt no guilt at all for monopolizing such a large leg of lamb.

After all, she is still growing.

Everyone else watched Ling Xi eat the roasted lamb leg with a smile, and then each of them had a bowl of wine and drank together.

Ling Xi also quickly picked up his own wine and placed it against their bowls.

This is Ling Xi's first New Year spent in Wang Jun.

It was no longer the New Year when she and the old doctor spent it alone like in the previous ten years. This year, hundreds of thousands of Wang Jun were there to spend the New Year with her.

When they had almost finished drinking, Ling Xi and Feng Qiao, who had not drunk much, looked at each other.

Then he quietly left the campfire.

Feng Qiao returned to the tent and took out a jar of Sui Han wine that she had secretly hidden.

Ling Xi and she ran to a secluded place some distance away from the tent, took two wine bowls, each took a bowl, and started drinking.

The two of them talked while drinking. Ling Xi talked about his past life, and Feng Qiao talked about where she was doing and what she was doing before she was taken to the palace.

After drinking too much, the two hugged each other and laughed.

At first, Ling Xi still had a vivid memory of that night.

After that, she had no impression at all.

Because she was drunk.
