Chapter 458: Twilight Shixiong Arrives
As soon as he finished speaking, a string of torches suddenly lit up outside the main hall. The sudden light instantly made the outside of the Hou Mansion shine brightly.
The Shadow Killer instantly disappeared into thin air, and Chi Luan turned into a parrot.
There was only Ling Hou alone in the huge main hall at this time. He squinted his eyes and looked out of the door.
Soon, a man in armor with a bare face rushed in. This person is popular, but there is a slight decadence in his eyebrows.
The moment he lifted his armor and raised his legs and stepped into the main hall, Hou Gu's body was shocked: "Brother Dusk?!"
The moment Brother Twilight spoke, Twilight Shixiong stopped.
"After a few years, Hou Ye is still the same. ”
Ling Hougu's eyes were red. He smiled faintly: "Are you the same? You and I are old." Look at your face, the torch behind you, the folds of your face. Over, Ling Hougu pouted in disgust.
Twilight Shixiong laughed: "Hahahaha~ It's not illuminated by that light, and it's the same folds on the face." Battle-hardened, I'm pretty good. "Striding forward.
The two of them put their arms on their hands, and their eyes were full of brotherhood.
Just as he was about to sit down, Twilight suddenly yelled, "Extinguish the torch!"
Ling Hou was stunned: "What is this?"
Twilight Shixiong turned around: "According to the itinerary, it should have arrived tomorrow." It's just that when he was halfway through the afternoon, he suddenly heard ......" here, and Twilight Shixiong lowered his head and sighed: "I heard about Guan Xian's death." Then he hurried over. It's late today, and I don't want to alarm others, I just want to talk to you. It can be regarded as persuading you to mourn and reminisce about the old at the same time. ”
Ling Hougu lowered his head and nodded lightly: "It's okay." I also have a lot to say to Brother Dusk. But all of a sudden, I don't know where to start. ”
Twilight Shixiong turned his head: "I don't know where to start, then take it slowly." Wherever you want to go. ”
Ling Hougu looked up at the few generals who came with him outside the door. He stood up and stretched out his hand to ask for something outside the door, but he didn't make a sound.
Twilight Shixiong knew that Hou Gu was afraid that he would have to send someone to arrange for Rao to live and eat with him. But seeing that he didn't say a word after half of his effort, he immediately stood up and looked around: "What about the housekeeper in the house? I remember, didn't that Zhao housekeeper beat you and was by your side? Didn't you bring it with you when you moved to the west?"
Ling Hougu lowered his head and said nothing. After a pause, he pointed out the door: "The wing room facing my main hall, you can go and rest there." ”
"It's Hou Ye!"
After seeing everyone leave, Du Shixiong turned his head and looked at Ling Hougu blankly: "What's wrong with you? Why is there no one around here?"
Ling Hougu pointed to the chair and motioned for Twilight Shixiong to sit down.
After sitting down, Ling Hougu suddenly laughed helplessly and shook his head: "You don't, I haven't felt it yet." I also suddenly realized just now, why are all the people around me gone?"
Twilight Shixiong was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean? What happened to you? When this rumor came, in addition to Guan Xian's death, there were also some things about you making the Hou Mansion haunted. Rumors are now endless, and they are all over the place. ”
Twilight Shixiong frowned as he spoke, and looked at Ling Hougu with blazing eyes.
Ling Hougu raised his head to meet him: "Does Brother Dusk believe in ghosts and gods?"
Twilight Shixiong leaned forward: "What about you? You have fought half of your life on the battlefield, and you are tied to this sword at your waist, how can you be a ghost? Besides, as far as I know, you are not such a person." Why are you allowing rumors to spread in this house now? What difficulties are you encountering? Someone is bullying you? You tell me! I will avenge you!"
Ling Hougu shook his head helplessly: "I was bullied, but I was really bullied." ”
"Who is it?!", Twilight Shixiong suddenly stood up from the chair and put his hand on the sword at his waist: "Although I brought few people and horses, don't you still have soldiers in your house? Three days! Three days! I, Twilight Shixiong, will definitely let your army formation basically resist the enemy! You can become an elite soldier in ten days!"
Ling Hougu waved his hand: "No, no, it's not people who bully me." ”
Twilight lowered his head and repeated suspiciously, "It's not human? Look, you must not mention any ghosts and gods to me." You know, I'm not going to believe it. ”
Ling Hougu shook his head again: "The one who bullied me is the old." ”
Twilight Shixiong understood the meaning of Ling Hougu's words, and slowly sat back in the chair: "Understood." Xiao Jiang and Guan Xian passed away one after another, and the white-haired people sent the black-haired people, no matter who it was, it would be uncomfortable. However, Xiao Jiang has always been weak and sickly, Guan Xian is strong, and he has always led the troops to train the soldiers, and he has never heard that he is sick. Why, was there some kind of accident?"
Ling Hougu shook his head: "Brother Dusk, our two families are world friends. In addition, they grew up together since childhood, although the soldiers later divided into two paths, one in politics and the other in war. And I moved to this land of Zephan to avenge my father. But Brother Twilight, you have always been my brother in my heart. I didn't sleep well for the first two days I knew you were coming. Some words are too familiar, and they seem to be raw when they come out. Some words, it is precisely because of the closeness of the relationship that I don't know where to start. ”
Twilight Shixiong stretched out his hand to put his hand on Ling Hougu's shoulder: "When did you become such a mother-in-law? Besides, Hou Ye guards the people in this side of the city, and all the lives of the people in this side of the city are tied to your Hou Ye's belt! People who are not afraid of the battlefield, why are they so slurred now?"
Ling Hougu sighed: "Rao changes, sometimes, it is grinding." The first thing is to make the daughter twilight!"
As soon as the words fell, Twilight Shixiong suddenly burst out laughing. He tilted his head to look at Ling Hougu and lowered his voice: "What you think about is your daughter's marriage, right?"
Ling Hougu turned to meet Du Shixiong: "Yes." I wanted to kiss and kiss, but ...... Hi ......"
Twilight Shixiong laughed again, picked up the tea cup next to the table, and raised his eyelids to look at Ling Hougu: "If it doesn't work out, there is a mutation in everything, can't it be kissed and kissed?"
Ling Hougu was very surprised: "Brother Dusk is like this, do you know?"
"Hahahaha~ Don't forget, my life is Dusk Shixiong, that is Rong Ma's life. Since he is in command and leading the troops, trying to neutralize the regime in the bloody battle of corpses, it is also common sense that there are a lot of eyeliner around. ”
Ling Hougu frowned: "Eyeliner?"
Twilight Shixiong straightened up and put the tea cup in his hand on the table beside him: "Don't get me wrong. My eyeliner, but it's not because the woman came to you, I don't worry about it. You and I have no relationship with each other, how can I do such a behind-the-scenes that is not convincing to you? haha~ It's just that you also know that although the past two years can be regarded as a year of peace and stability, turmoil on all sides is still frequent from time to time, especially in Waifanshu, where there are often reactionary hearts inside and outside the territory. As a commanding general, it is impossible to sit cross-legged at home drinking tea and chatting when there is no war, right? Only by taking precautions can we put an end to hidden dangers. So, many years ago, there were basically people from me in some of the surrounding cities. ”
At this point, Twilight Shixiong turned his head to look at Ling Hougu, "Look at your nervous appearance, sit down!" and grabbed Ling Hougu's arm and dragged him to sit across from the chair on his side.
Twilight Shixiong leaned forward, "It's understandable that I feel sorry for my daughter." But the woman is not in the middle, and she will get married sooner or later. Don't you really want to, when she sent back the two maids I sent from the General's Mansion to serve personally, I knew that she was sincere about that Duan Kun. If I don't know anything about Duan Kun, and there is no one around this Duxue who is handy to take care of, then how can I be willing to do it? Duan Kun is your righteous son. Although there has not been much contact between you and me in recent years, I know the people around you. For you, I am a hundred relieved. ”
Ling Hougu sighed, he turned his head to look at the ground in front of him with a depressed look: "Yes! The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment." I also always thought that this Kun's character, I ordered Hou Gu to sell a face to make a package ticket, but in the end, I slapped myself in the face first. I understand now, I still can't recognize myself correctly, let alone someone else?"
Twilight Shixiong smiled, "Don't be like that. ”
"Brother Dusk, do you know that Duan Kun is suddenly going to marry a maid who disappeared in the mansion a few years ago?"
Twilight lowered his eyes and nodded slightly.
Ling Hougu frowned: "Then Brother Dusk, do you know that Xue'er is now very disturbed in my mansion because of this matter?"
Twilight Shixiong shook his head helplessly, and laughed again: "Hahaha~ How could I not know? Her mother left early, and I am such a precious daughter, put it by my side." Her temperament is very similar to mine. Those who basically recognize the right things have no way back. I'm the same with Du Shixiong. In this war, if I decide that I must win this battle, even if I kill him three times or five times, what I want is the result that I recognize! Otherwise, even if I become the commander of the light pole, I will never give up!"
Ling Hougu was a little anxious: "But Brother Dusk, you are fighting, this is the love of children." ”
Du Shixiong waved his hand: "What about the love of children? ”
"What's the reason?"
Twilight Shixiong hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, pulling the beard to the side: "People who value feelings admit to death." ”
Ling Hougu sighed again: "Duan Kun is my righteous son, and Xue'er is your daughter, and now that I'm like this, I can't play any role in the middle." Seeing this Xue'er hanging her head and crying and wiping her tears for this, my heart is really uncomfortable. ”
At this point, Ling Hougu leaned forward: "Brother Dusk, it stands to reason that Duan Kun, as my righteous son, should be punished for playing with Xue'er's feelings like this." Maybe this child's love is not to death, but in fact, I really shouldn't be so indifferent. But Brother Dusk, I Ling Hougu is not here to shirk responsibility with you, Xue'er is also my daughter, I am also distressed, and I am just as angry with Duan Kun. But the current situation in my house does not allow me to do this at all. ”
Twilight Shixiong blinked, "Why do you want to punish Duan Kun?"
Ling Hougu was stunned: "He made Xue'er sad, and he wanted to marry Hu Yue very suddenly, and he has not given an explanation so far." You're stumped ......"
Twilight Shixiong laughed, raised his hand and brushed his beard: "Hahaha~ It's serious! The love affair between a young man, and there is no marriage first, where does it rise to the level of punishment?
