Chapter 653 Brothers (second update)
Zhibai told Zhou Gu in detail that he found out that people from the Nangong family were making trouble and destroying the granary. They felt that these people could not be allowed to make trouble. If the granary was destroyed, it would be a great harm to Nanchu, so he Take people to suppress those people.
Those people are all masters, fortunately he brought thousands of people and won against them, but it was a lot of effort and time wasted, he thought he helped the fourth son, but he didn't expect that because he came a step late, The princess was almost killed.
After arriving today, he heard the dangerous thing yesterday and regretted it very much.
Zhou Gu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "Well done, these people burned down the granary, which is also endangering Southern Chu. Now that the Great Wei invades, the supply to the rear of Southern Chu must not be cut off. Once it is cut off, it will be a catastrophe. You did nothing wrong."
He said fortunately: "Maybe Su Rong has some luck on her body. The two cousins brought someone yesterday, but if they came a moment later, it would be over. Presumably this is the fate of dragon and phoenix in the old saying."
Zhi Bai looked at Zhou Gu, "Thanks to the Qinghe Cui family, Cui Gong is wise."
Zhou Gu nodded.
Zhi Bai said again: "This subordinate heard that the princess left herself on the battlefield to save you yesterday..."
Zhou Gu nodded again, "So I was very angry and ignored him all night."
Su Rong was unconscious, and he couldn't get angry even if he was angry. Wasn't it because he was angry all night? Can't understand her.
Zhibai said: "My subordinates and others, I will follow you, the fourth son, and swear to be loyal to the queen."
Zhou Gu smiled, "Okay."
The two talked for a while, Lanzhi brought the food, and Zhibai and Zhou Gu ate together. After the meal, Zhou Gu asked Zhibai to go to rest. Hearing that Ye Guixue woke up, Zhou Gu got up and went to visit Ye Gui Snow.
Ye Guixue was in a coma for a whole day and night. Not long after he woke up, he took him away to protect Zhou Gu. His injuries were so severe that he couldn't get up. He was fed food and medicine.
Before finishing a bowl of medicine, Zhou Gu came.
He entered the house, looked at Ye Guixue, annoyed, "This is the price you paid for forcefully protecting me and taking me away, otherwise why would you be injured so badly?"
Almost lost his life.
"Princess's order must not be violated." Ye Guixue twitched the corners of her mouth and smiled.
Zhou consulted him, "Brother Xue owes you the life-saving grace. There is nothing to repay you. Shall I feed you medicine?"
Ye Guixue shook her head quickly, "No need."
Zhou Gu didn't care, took the medicine from a guard, and fed Ye Guixue himself.
"No, brother Guixue is at a critical moment, and he obviously feels that the most important thing is to protect the princess. She is the future king of Nanchu and the hope of Nanchu, but you don't hesitate to obey her orders and protect me desperately. I was very unhappy and almost drew my sword at you in anger, but I had to admit that you only obeyed her orders and are a qualified subject, no wonder she made a big promise to you long ago to be a minister supporting the government." Zhou Gu scooped up a spoonful of medicine and brought it to Ye Guixue's mouth, "Brother Guixue, don't make me tired, drink it!" Ye Guixue really couldn't drink it, "Brother Zhou, let's get another person! "
Zhou Gu looked at him, "You and my brother, why are you being so polite? Brother Gui Xue doesn't drink, you are the one who made me feel sorry for suffering such a serious injury for me."
Ye Guixue had no choice but to open his mouth, and after feeding him the medicine for a while, he couldn't feel the bitterness anymore, so he really wanted to drink it up quickly. However, Zhou Gu was slow to feed, without spilling any of it, half a bowl of medicine, he fed it for a long time before finishing it.
Ye Guixue's forehead was faintly sweating, Zhou Gu handed the empty bowl to the people beside him, and smiled at Ye Guixue, "Brother Guixue, you are too humble. I looked at you before, To be honest, I always feel uneasy in my heart. You know, because of Su Rong, everyone is in a knot. Now, after going through life and death a few times, I will hand over to you, brother, and you just say, will you hand over to me? ?”
Ye Guixue laughed, "Now I call you Brother Zhou, it's okay. Once the Great Wei retreats and the prince and daughter return to the capital, the king canonize the king and queen as the heir, and canonize brother Zhou and the wife of the king. It’s not proper to call you brother or brother again.”
"Privately." Zhou Gu said, "Unless it belongs to Brother Xue, you can't look down on me."
Ye Guixue immediately shook her head, wanting to say how dare I not look down on you, I really think so much of you, I have heard that two young masters from the Qinghe Cui clan brought nearly two thousand people to come Taking refuge in you, I also heard that the Duke Protector's Mansion also sent thousands of secret guards. These people, coming at this juncture, are really timely, so that they have a great chance of winning and can hold on to the Black Cliff Pass, waiting for the 200,000 reinforcements from Daliang to come.
Under Zhou Gu's gaze, he smiled and readily agreed, "Okay, in private, I'll also call Brother Zhou this brother."
Zhou Gu grinned, "That's fine, you can rest and recuperate! You just woke up, it's not suitable to work hard, you don't have to worry about defending the city, Zhang Yun and my two cousins are here."
Ye Guixue said: "I have also heard that the mechanism technique of Guishamen can be used to defend the city, which is really beneficial. It is really thanks to them."
Zhou Gu nodded, "Well, that's right, so you just need to rest and relax."
Ye Guixue nodded, "Okay."
Zhou Gu went out of Ye Guixue's room, and went to see Feng Ling, Zi Ye, and Jiang Zhu. The three of them were still awake, so he took a look, and then went to see Xie Yuan again.
Seeing him coming, Xie Yuan frowned, "Why don't you take a good rest and wander around? Do you think your injury is minor?"
Zhou Gu was scolded obediently, sat down and explained, "After sleeping for a day, I couldn't sleep any more. I heard that brother Gui Xue woke up, so I came to see him, and I will see Uncle Xie by the way."
"I don't need you to look."
Zhou Gu immediately changed his words: "Come to discuss the war with you. The Great Wei has been attacking for an hour today and then withdrew its troops. It must have gone back to discuss countermeasures. There will be a fierce attack on the city tomorrow, and there must be a fierce battle tomorrow. I can't take it." To be sure, we destroyed four of Wei's siege cannons, and they destroyed two of them themselves. Will those four siege cannons be repaired in a short time and be used on the battlefield again?"
Xie Yuan turned pale when he heard him say this, "You are right to be worried, but when you were fighting outside the city, I used binoculars to observe Wei's siege guns, and the construction was quite cumbersome. At that time, although it was not completely destroyed, if we wanted to restore it, Da Wei would need time to forge it again, and it would not be repaired in a short time. We should worry, and also worry that in the future, Da Wei will use siege cannons to act on the battlefield .”
Zhou Gu nodded, "My second brother and third brother's troops will arrive in ten days at the earliest. As long as we survive these ten days..." He looked at Xie Yuan, "Uncle Xie, tell me, in ten days, we will counterattack How? Great Wei sent troops to attack the border town of Daliang. My grandfather had already gone there in person. Based on my understanding of my grandfather, he might attack while Great Wei’s country was empty. Should Yuan Zhao withdraw his troops? Let’s do the reverse, so we won’t let Great Wei withdraw?”
Xie Yuan looked at him, "That's true, but is there enough food in Nanchu?"
Babies, it’s the end of the month, and the double monthly pass starts, so don’t keep it~
