Chapter 238 238: I can't afford it [Two in One]
The confidant said cautiously: "I heard that there is a war."
When Gong Xiqiu heard the word "war", his face became a little unhappy. Although he has been trying to hide for a while, it doesn't mean that the news is blocked. I heard that the envoy of King Zhu ordered the slaughter of Xiaocheng, but still did not get the so-called "National Seal".
His mentality was somewhat broken, and his anger was high.
But the one who collapsed even more than the messenger of King Xi was King Xi.
Don't look at his title as "King Pig", but he has no problem with his brain at all. No one knew better than King Zhu what would happen if he failed to obtain the Imperial Seal—once Zheng Qiao calmed down and suppressed the eager rebel crowd, he would be the first to deal with him.
Wang Xi and another rebellious brother became increasingly restless.
The specific manifestation is that the old general received a secret letter with stricter wording than the other, and Gong Xichou, who had been behind closed doors to thank guests for many days, heard about it.
Gong Xiqiu sneered, "Another war?"
Last time, he did useless work and slaughtered a whole city for the so-called "National Seal"... This time there is another war, what kind of moth are you trying to make?
The confidant bowed his head and said: "I heard that it is a crusade against the coalition forces."
Gong Xichou: "What coalition forces? That mob?"
The confidant said: "It is them."
Gong Xiqiu pursed his lips, and said in a nonchalant voice: "I see, you go back and talk to foster father, I will pack up here and go."
Said to clean up, but actually did nothing.
I simply don't like being on time, I just make people wait on purpose. Even if other people know this well, they have to endure it.
All the officers and soldiers were having a feast, and there was endless singing and dancing in the hall.
As soon as Gong Xiqiu passed by, the old general enthusiastically asked him to sit next to him, and several young, beautiful, graceful dancers with cool clothes came up to him. One of them was exceptionally good-looking, and his attire was richer than theirs.
This woman's waist is like a water snake, almost slipping into Gong Xichou's arms, pouring wine for him with a smile. The eyes are like silk, and the red lips are lightly parted.
The voice is as crisp as an oriole, very pleasant to the ear.
"Major General, please."
Gong Xiqiu's fingers accidentally touched the woman's naked back, as if touching a delicate, soft and cold snake, and subconsciously froze. Just as he was about to raise his hand to push the woman away, the old general asked him with a smile, "Ah Nian, are you satisfied with this woman?"
Gong Xichou: "..."
He lowered his head slightly, his eyes met those eyes full of spring water, his brows furrowed tightly and he said, "I'm not satisfied."
When the woman heard this, her face turned pale.
Climb down from Gongxi Qiu's arms in a hurry.
She seemed to know her fate, and kept shrinking.
Generally, Meiji who is rejected by Gong Xiqiu will be rewarded by the old general to other subordinates in the end, or he will accept it by himself. But this time, the old general was uncharacteristically, and persuaded him in the tone of an old father: "How can there be a man who doesn't like sex?"
This adopted son is good everywhere.
Being obedient, loyal, and unambitious, and not thinking about coveting things that don't belong to him, is much better than those unfilial sons at home.
It's a pity that he is not his son.
The old general is very satisfied with him, but occasionally he has a lot of worries—Gong Xiqiu likes gold, silver, jewelry, and precious wine, but he is not greedy for money. He is quite indifferent to beauty. He is powerful, talented and young. There is still room to rise.
In a way, almost a perfect man.
But a tool without shortcomings, can it really be used by him all the time? After drinking for three rounds, the old general also drank until his cheeks were slightly red.
Taking advantage of his alcohol, he said half-truthfully, "Ah Nian, are you really unwilling to accept this girl? In that case, the adoptive father will reward her. The soldiers below will follow you and my father and son on an expedition, away from the wife at home. , there are few people to comfort..."
The dancer's face lost all color when she heard it.
Trembling on the ground, not daring to make a sound, judging from the slight trembling of her back that she tried to endure, she was already terrified.
At the banquet, other generals also laughed and booed.
"The last general is at the age of the major general, not to mention a woman, and the children of concubines can run away." One person said nonsense through alcohol, "Could it be that the major general has not been taught about housework so far? Women are not scourges. Taste is true."
The other person laughed and joked: "The beauty of such a symbol is really rewarded. I am afraid that within two days, even the best buds will wither. You might as well just accept it and add more flowers to the house." How good is a person who knows what's cold and what's hot?"
"It's a pity that it is such a symbol of beauty."
The old general raised his hand, ready for someone to pull the woman down.
Gong Xiqiu said helplessly: "Leave it."
Hearing this, the desperate woman raised her head to look at him in ecstasy, but Gong Xichou's gaze didn't fall on her.
But anyway, she got away with it for the time being.
Gong Xiqiu tapped the food table with his fingers: "What are you doing in a daze?"
The wine in the glass is empty.
The woman hurriedly filled his glass.
Seeing this, the old general finally got over the blockage in his heart.
Gong Xiqiu took a sip of the wine in his glass, and asked the old general with his usual expression: "The adoptive father is in a hurry to recruit the child, why?"
The old general said: "For that group of thieves."
Gong Xiqiu: "The son is willing to relieve the worries of the adoptive father."
The old general was happy in his heart, but there was still worry on his face.
He sighed and patted Yoshiko on the shoulder.
"As a father, I naturally know that my son is brave. It's just that the allied army formed by this group of thieves is indeed capable. It is stronger than you and I expected. The leader of the allied army is surnamed Wu, and his name is Xian. I heard that he has several people with outstanding military strength. The family generals are all serious troubles!"
Gong Xiqiu said coldly: "Father, don't worry about that gang of mobs. In my son's eyes, the foster father asked my son to lead an army of 10,000. Not to mention Wu Xian's generals, even Wu Xian himself, my son would also Take off his head and make him a cub for the adoptive father!"
The old general was greatly moved after hearing this.
Patted Gong Xiqiu on the shoulder in appreciation.
"My son is brave! You can rest easy!"
The other generals also flattered: "The major general is brave enough to win the three armies. Those who are rogues and dogs are naturally vulnerable. The last general is here, let the major general be respected first."
Others also raised their glasses.
Gong Xiqiu rolled his eyes in his heart.
On the surface, you still have to hold up the wine glass to drink with the generals.
At this time, a bearded military general with a strange face came out from the corner. He clasped his fists and said fiercely: "Why do you use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? The last general invites you to fight. I am willing to send troops with the major general to kill that group of traitors." No piece of armor will be left behind!"
Gong Xichou's eyeballs moved.
He didn't quite know who were under the adoptive father's account.
This stunned young man looks at his face.
Why do you say it is stunned?
Didn't look at the others and kept silent?
He spoke very harshly, but no one stood up to ask for a fight, but kept fighting? Stretch your neck and wait for him to come out?
Why?
Because it is easy to gain military exploits by following his ass!
On the battlefield, swords and guns have no eyes, who would spare their lives?
Military achievements are glory and wealth, who wouldn't be tempted?
It can save your life and gain military exploits, so a fool would not do it.
But I don't want to have Leng Touqing take the initiative to stand up.
Listening to the meaning, I still want to take the lead.
Gong Xiqiu didn't recognize the identity of this person, but how could the old general not know? Immediately said three good things in one breath: "Okay, okay - I have a strong general like you, so why worry about forming an alliance with thieves?"
Without further ado—
Reward this person with two dancers and a box of jewels.
Order Gong Xiqiu and him to gather 10,000 elite soldiers to meet the enemy.
Gong Xiqiu took the order in a deep voice.
Said it was an order of soldiers, but in fact he didn't have to worry about it at all.
He can sleep well and recharge his batteries.
Emmm—
The piece of white snow came into sight, and Gong Xichou moved his eyes away.
He pointed to the scattered clothes on the bed: "Put it on!"
The woman said: "Yes!"
Gong Xiqiu said again: "Go down!"
Women naturally dare not disobey.
With trembling fingers, she finished wearing the clothes that were economical in fabrics, the same ones from the banquet. It's just that the light from the candles in the room is not as abundant as in the banquet hall, but instead adds a bit of a hazy and ethereal feeling.
To put it more simply, it is to turn on the blur beauty filter.
Even some shortcomings will be covered up.
Feeling the conscience, it is indeed very beautiful.
Gong Xiqiu asked: "What did the adoptive father ask you to come here?"
The woman bit her lower lip and said truthfully, "Serve the major general."
Gong Xichou: "Then you say you have served."
The woman looked at him in astonishment.
Gong Xiqiu asked this rhetorically.
"Why, foster father will let people check whether you have served me? You just say it, and I will say yes when you ask me later."
The woman's mood eased a lot, and she said in a low voice: "If there is an inspection, the major general will really admit it, and I'm afraid it will hurt his reputation..."
Gong Xiqiu had several big question marks on his forehead.
He asked: "What do you mean?"
The woman held back her shame and said: "My family is still a daughter."
If it is really checked, and Gong Xichou admits it again, it will inevitably make people slander him as a silver-colored gun with a slick but useless, how incompetent can he be? It's just that Gong Xiqiu didn't think too much about it, but was surprised by the woman's answer: "It's really strange."
The woman thought that Gong Xichou was mocking her, and she was ashamed and indignant, but she heard him say: "I know the virtues of those people under Yifu's hands. They are as good-looking as you, and you can still guard them without taking advantage of them. The scum has changed sex?"
The woman guessed: "Maybe it's for charming?"
Gong Xiqiu was too lazy to guess.
"You stay at ease. If you have nothing to do, you warm up the mattress every night before leaving, and you will be released later when you have a chance."
Woman: "...Major General doesn't want to take over slave house?"
Gong Xiqiu spread his hands and said, "I can't take it."
woman:"…???"
Did she, did she hear some terrible gossip?
Is it really a silver-like pewter tip? ? ?
For a moment, death seemed to be upon her. If you know the secret of Gong Xiqiu, you won't be killed by him, right?
That's not enough.
"Martial arts practitioners should stay away from women! Indulging in women will hinder their cultivation!" Gong Xichou is not so stingy, and he is not prepared to kill women, he said, "I still practice boy martial arts."
Hearing this, the woman knew she had misunderstood.
But at the same time, he let out a long sigh of relief—
Who is willing to sacrifice their body in exchange for a living?
So good.
Gong Xiqiu didn't care what the woman was thinking, and said to let her go out after warming up, and he really did what he said. The woman was trembling at first, but when she saw that Gong Xichou really didn't even give her extra eyes, she believed it completely and slept in the side room with the thin quilt in her arms.
Before dawn, I heard footsteps at the tip of my ears.
She got up, but saw that there was an extra set of tight women's skirts on the empty table, and hurriedly changed it on.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Gong Xiqiu turning into a martial armor.
After that, he blew the whistle to call out the war horse, and left without looking back.
The subordinate officials followed closely.
Looking at the re-closed door, and looking at the gray sky outside the window, the Golden Crow has not yet fully risen, just as her future is so bleak, the woman's heart is filled with endless sorrow for no reason.
But soon she calmed down again and smiled self-deprecatingly.
Compared with other arrested women, she is already very good.
At least Gong Xiqiu has strength and is not cruel.
As for him saying to find a chance to send himself away?
Women are reluctant. Staying by Gong Xichou's side, as long as he doesn't fall, I will always have a place to settle down, but once I run out, not to mention her face and body, even her identity as a woman will cause a lot of trouble .
Because she doesn't have the ability to survive in troubled times.
Even if she had a family background that ordinary people would envy before her disaster.
"Rootless duckweed..."
The woman looked at the sky and sighed with emotion in a low voice.
The sound is extremely small, and it disperses as soon as it is spit out.
at the same time-
Gong Xiqiu met his righteous brother again.
Brother Yoshi asked him, "How was your night last night?"
Gong Xiqiu: "A moment in Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, very good."
Brother Yin Yang is strange: "Father rewarded so many beauties before, and you don't want any of them. It turns out that they are not colorful enough."
Gong Xiqiu said: "It is better to lack than to overuse."
Brother Yi wanted to say something else, Gong Xiqiu said with a frank smile: "Brother, I have been used to being wild since I was a child. I like it very much, and I hate it very much. I don't covet other people's things, but I don't like other people Claws out to me."
Brother Yi was slightly hairy when he stared at him.
"what for?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "It means that whoever stretches out his claws, the little brother will chop off his claws! Put it in the oil pan and fry it, and eat it with wine and vegetables!"
After speaking, he drove past him.
He knows this wonderful brother-in-law very well.
If there is no warning, the other party can really do anything. Even if he cares about his father and son afterwards, the old general will favor his son. Maybe he will hate iron for being weak, thinking that it is a woman who deliberately seduces and destroys the brotherhood...
If you are charged with a crime, you will die in vain.
Brother Yi looked at Gong Xiqiu's back.
With a heavy snort, he turned his horse's head and left.
Flags are flying, and the ten thousand army has been reorganized.
Leng Touqing, who took the initiative to ask for a battle at the banquet, stepped forward and said in a confident voice: "Young General, the army is ready."
Gong Xiqiu just nodded without saying a word.
He glanced casually.
These soldiers are mostly young and strong.
This time on the battlefield, I don’t know how many will be left behind.
Glancing at the time, Gong Xiqiu put away his redundant and useless thoughts, raised his hand and waved it down, and said softly: "The army—start!"
No one expected that the two parties would have such a tacit understanding.
Troops are dispatched at the same time, but they still go on the same road.
The scouts on both sides quickly found the enemy's traces.
The alliance army was shocked.
Leader Wu Xian asked, "Who is in charge of the army?"
The soldier said: "The word 'Gongxi' is written on the flag."
Gongxi?
Gong Xiqiu?
