赵子陵也开始对这傅小蛙有所改观，他一直都接触不多，也就是娴儿经常回来提起，还有就是在梦玉博中堂女儿的婚典上见过一回，经过两回的接触，也是加深了解，这娴儿结交的这朋友，确实是不一般。
赵子凌也应着梦玉博中堂道：“就是差那么一点点！”
娴儿见两人在如此叹息，也就问道：“今天是发生了什么？”
赵子陵道：“今天真的是曲曲折折，惊险万分，本来我们是铁定输的局，却是没想到，你这朋友，一言惊人，得到皇上大大的赞同还支持，也是为父一直小看了你这朋友，影响力不可小视，将来一定可以成为我们强大的盟友！”
对于傅小蛙的影响力娴儿一直都不曾怀疑，不过她还是好奇道：“他说了什么？”
梦玉博道：“他说，这朝庭只有一个存在的原因，那就是为百姓办事，让天下百姓更好，这句话深得圣心，最后朝臣都往我们这边阵营靠，差点就赢了，唉！”
娴儿听闻，才知一二，这确实是长年来一直忘记了的问题，朝庭的存在本就是为管理天下，为百姓，但最终却发展成争夺权力只有尔虞我诈的地方，忘却了朝殿的最终本质。说这傅小蛙，确实是能行善，能醒世，不过最终还是没有力量对抗这交结了无数年的政治根缔。
“爹爹，那今天为何会输？”
赵子陵道：“是那段洪远最后抓住了一个把柄吧，听说傅小蛙在巴图军营是被放回来的，所以段洪远利用此事大作文章，你这朋友还在敌营里吃了毒药。不知道是不是真的，如果是真的，怕是也赶不回巴图军营了！”
“什么？”娴儿一惊，她是一直都不知道还有这事，傅小蛙竟然在今天都还不回去。还要去上朝，这简直是不要命了。
她开始回想到傅小蛙今天的异常，他要干什么，娴儿越想越觉得不对劲，一股莫名的不详预感漫上心头。
娴儿转头跑出书房，只留下发愣的赵子陵与梦玉博。
她心急如焚地朝着后院跑去。差点撞倒了几个丫环，待来到后院之时，一时间心都寒了半截。
只见那红霞之下，空寂的凉亭，静悄悄的。什么都没有，什么都没了，只有那一个孤单单的茶杯，还落在石桌之上……
一个脚步，踩踏在漫漫沙土之上带起一片灰扬，在晚霞的光芒中，现在的傅小蛙天奔跑着，那是比马匹还要快的速度。那瘦小的身影，正朝着日落的方向直奔而去，一直消失在天际尽头。
浩城军营之中。这个时候的候大发，已经一直几天宿醉，每天都是风头出尽，在众多将领邀请，这英雄之军的荣耀，实在是让人喜欢。今天都还有总督府的邀请。去那里又是奖励，又是宴席。天天都是满载而归。宫少白还连续几天受牧建之将军邀请，一齐探讨箭术。传授宫少白一些需要年纪去积累的经验。
总之，这一天的结束之后，众多的土匪兵在庆功宴上吃饱喝足舒服的呆在高级别的兵营里休息，等候着皇城更多的奖励和喜悦，那后面而来的才是大头的奖励与荣耀。
在那主营帐中，烛光摇晃，帐壁里印着两个身影，候大发正与宫少白在愉快地交谈。
“今天真是太高兴了，总督大人还给了我一个拥抱，俺还没抱过这么大的官，总督大人也是看得起俺，哈哈哈哈！”候大发哈哈大笑着。
宫少白也是笑笑，他不多话，不过这一阵子确实是受人敬重，让他感受这样的生活非常有味道。
“我说大队长怎么一直都没有露面，都死哪去了，这日子以来他才是最重要的主角，可这主角就是一直没出现，这些为他庆功的场子，都是我们帮着去，他到底是在闹哪样玩！”
宫少白在擦着他的黑弓道：“不知道，队长向来神秘兮兮的，经常就会给人带来不一样的震惊，没人猜得到他想干什么，比如抢粮，孤城袭帅，劫持皇爷，烧粮草，什么乱七八糟的，只有你想不到，没有他不敢干的！”
“唉呀，说的也是，看我这小心肝的，都有点承受不来了，说他冒充个新兵蛋子到俺们这来套近乎，俺们还真信了他的邪，先是打了军备处的官，又是带俺上山抓野味，杀袭兵，守大桥，虐两大镇国将军，还真是每一回都出乎意料，不过这一下好了，我们都回来了，立了大功，战争也结束了，以后的日子就好过了，等升了职我们再跟着大队长后面好好干，在皇城终有一天会功成名就！”候大发美滋滋地想着光明的朱来。
宫少白点点头道：“是拿摸不到他的想法，不过跟他大队长混，没一件事让我们后悔过，值得跟随，不过现在四处的宴功庆都缺席，这浩城的大庆，好像都少了点什么，似乎不完整了！”
“是啊，我们都是配角，都受欢迎得不得了，队长要出现了，更是不得了，这该死的队长到底死哪去了！”
“谁在说我该死？”
这个时候的傅小蛙已经长途奔跑几百里地，一直奔跑到军营，这是超级的耐力，比马还强大，比马还快速，还一点都不带气喘。
宫少白与候大发眼瞧着傅小蛙进了帐营，顿时收声，真是说人人到，说鬼鬼到，这么多重要场合都没出现，说一点坏话就冒头了，神出鬼没确实是他们大队长独树一帜的风格。
那候大发挠挠头咧笑道：“哪里有嘛，我们是在夸赞队长的英明神武，让他们急，让他们见不着人更心急，队长自然是要压箱底出现的！”
“看来这几天，你们过得挺滋润嘛！”
傅小蛙已经走进帐营，来到两人面前。两人在炕上给他挪了一个坐，傅小蛙坐在炕上，端起一杯茶，一饮而尽。
两个人见到傅小蛙就是高兴，从回来这几天。都没见人影，现在可是好，总算出现了，外面的人都在找着急呢，基本上每天他们都要回答无数个这样的问题，都是在问他们队长去哪了。
候大发陪笑道：“哪能么。没有队长出现，俺们吃啥啥没味，喝麻麻不香，现在浩城到处都在找您，您都跑哪去了。这么重要的时候都不出现！”
傅小蛙道：“去皇城打了一转，顺道见了见老朋友！”
“原来是去皇城，难怪整个浩城都找不着，您特么的真难跑，一下子就跑那么远的地方去了，也不事先告诉俺们一声，看俺们都牵挂的，茶不思饭不想的！”候大发胡扯着道。
这个时候。傅小蛙突然沉下脸来，一副认真的样子问询道：“你们喜不喜欢现在的生活？”
候大发突然一愣，发现这个时候的大队长。是从所未有的认真，一点都没有以前那副嘻哈的模样。这样的严肃，却是让两个人一点都不习惯。
是什么让这队长突然变成这样，他们很纳闷，候大发咽了咽口水也收起那副玩笑的脸，结巴地道：“喜。喜欢，队长您。您这是怎么了？”
宫少白脸色沉静了一下，他知道应该有什么事情。
傅小蛙突然道：“你们敢不敢跟我干件事！”
候大发愣了一下。然后拍拍胸膛道：“我候大发连巴图军营都敢跟您闯了，还有什么事情不敢干，您说，上刀山下油锅都不带眨眼的！”
傅小蛙沉默了一下，候大发巴望着，催促道：“您直管说！”
傅小蛙淡淡地吐出两个字：“叛变！”
“叛……”候大发顿时悟住嘴，意识到他的声音是太大了，他瞪大着眼睛，声音压得低而又惊愕地道：“叛变！！！？”
傅小蛙非常确定的点点头，一连玩笑的意思都没有，他认真道：“没错，我知道你们现在很喜欢现在的生活，现在的状态，所以，我傅小蛙不会强求，如果你们想留下，就留下，如果要跟着我，明天，你们就将是大息王朝最大的逆贼，人人得而诛之！”
候大发愣着咽咽口水，这个天大的意外，正如同他们队长的风格，从来就没有给他们消停的时候。而且这个意外，更加意外而意外，直接就从大功臣，变成大息王朝的叛贼，这个转变，简直比天地间的距离而要遥远。
