Zhu Yan smiled slightly with satisfaction, but the smile touched the wound on her face, and a hissing sound came out of her mouth, and in an instant, she regained her indifference, and almost ordered Zhu Di, "Also, give me a mirror, now, immediately!" ”

Zhu Di's face did not change, he bent down and said softly, "There are no mirrors here." ”

"You lied to me!" Zhu Yanxue's face was flushed, and she could see that she was trying her best to hide her excitement, "Give me a mirror." ”

Zhu Di's eyes seemed to have a deep pool, looked at her, and said patiently, "This king didn't lie to you, the march and battle, the whole team is men, and the weapons and bedding are still tired and panting, where will anyone still have the heart to carry a mirror with him?" ”

The blood on Zhu Yanxue's face slowly receded, obviously she believed Zhu Di's excuse, so she moved her eyes to me, and said almost with despair, "Aren't you a woman?" Don't you have mirrors on you? Please, let me see what I've become. I'm not going to do anything. ”

I shook my head and said sincerely, "My horse was scared away by your men in the woods, and my luggage is on that horse, and you don't know it." ”

Zhu Yanxue pursed his lips, not satisfied with my answer at all, but finally quieted down and stopped talking. After a while, when I looked at her again, I could not see her expression even though she had her back to me, but I could see her pillow getting wet. Zhu Di pulled me and said softly, "Let's go, she needs to rest now." ”

I followed Zhu Di out, and when I was about to reach the door, I looked back, Zhu Yanxue was still motionless like that, and my heart suddenly became uncomfortable.

When I got outside, I asked Zhu Di, "Of the more than 10,000 bandits, only a small half have received some training, and most of them are uncivilized barbarians. ”

Zhu Di said with a smile, "As long as these people come under my command, will they continue to be gangsters?" Do you know how many of the people in my Divine Machine Battalion used to be idle gangsters, even prisoners? ”

I was dumbfounded, "You dare to pull those people into the army too?" ”

"A good piece of steel, taken to make a sickle, it can only be used in the hands of farmers to cut wheat, if it is in the hands of a good craftsman, cast into a sharp blade, it can become a famous sword, as long as the foundation is good, it does not matter what disgraceful experience has been." Zhu Di talked and laughed vigorously, as if he had already pocketed those bandits.

When I saw that he was confident, I stopped worrying. Zhu Yan's blood was too seriously injured to walk, and I was the only woman in the army, so I had to stay and take care of him, and Zhu Di took the lead in leading the army to continue southward to pursue the defeated soldiers taken away by Li Jinglong. I saw that Zhu Di was very tired, so I persuaded him to rest for two days before setting off, but he told me that there were millions of quintals of grain brought by Li Jinglong from the imperial court in the city of Dezhou, and as long as he captured Dezhou, he could get that food, so that he could give a powerful supply to the northern army that had run out of ammunition and food. I heard him say that, and I stopped insisting.

I stayed in the camp with a small group of his soldiers for only a few days, and Zhu Di sent someone to send the news back, it turned out that as soon as they chased to Texas, Li Jinglong's group was still shocked by Zhu Di's aftermath, and they didn't even dare to resist, so they immediately packed up the guy and ran away. In this way, the boundary of Shandong can be regarded as opening a horn, and Zhu Di's Yan army rushed all the way south with an unstoppable momentum.

By the time Zhu Di set up in the camp outside Jinan, Zhu Yanxue's body was almost better, and before I could speak, she said that she would go to Jinan to help Zhu Di attack the city. I observed her complexion, and did think that she had recovered a lot, so I agreed to take her with me.

The road is full of displaced people, and the streets where people are struggling to make a living, there are hungry refugees everywhere. I frowned, and when I was panicking, I suddenly lost my blood when I turned around, and immediately looked around and asked a few soldiers who were traveling with me, "Where is Miss Zhu?" ”

Those people also wondered, "I was still behind you just now, and I slowly retreated to the back, and this blink of an eye is gone!" ”

I suddenly remembered something, and immediately turned around and ran back, and sure enough, I saw a familiar figure standing in front of a merchant who sold rouge and gouache, holding his face in both hands, looking at the mirror on the pick, his eyes full of horror. I chased after her and hugged her, but she began to struggle frantically, "Don't! No! Smash it! Who's that! Who's that! As he spoke, he had already raised his foot and kicked the picker over, and when the merchant saw this, he grabbed Zhu Yanxue and shouted, "What stinky girls are so fierce!" You pay me for my pick! Lose my gouache! ”

Zhu Yanxue reached out and grabbed his waist, I knew that she was whipping, so I grabbed his hand, "What are you doing!" You're not a bandit now! ”

Zhu Yan said with red eyes, "This person is here to humiliate me with this mirror, I want to kill him!" I'm going to kill him! ”

I threw a silver bar at the man and shouted, "Run, run." ”

Zhu Yanxue broke free from my shackles like crazy, walked to the front of the picker, and trampled on the bronze mirror all the way, and those rouge gouaches were also scattered all over the place, falling everywhere, but in the turbulent years, the women and girls had no intention of dressing themselves, and no one dared to pick them up.

Zhu Yan went crazy for a long time, she was healed from her serious injury, and gradually lost her strength, so she stopped, still panting heavily. I walked up to her and said coldly, "Are you crazy enough, don't you want to be good?" Isn't it to recruit An? With such a gangster as you, if you take out your anger at a stranger if you don't like it at all, can you still make a big deal? ”

Zhu Yanxue glared at me, "Why didn't you tell me?" ”

"Telling you won't change anything." Forgiving her that she would not hurt any more, I turned around and said, "If you like to continue to go crazy, go on, I will take the soldiers on my way." ”

Zhu Yanxue looked at me for a long time, and finally put away the whip, took his horse, and silently followed behind us. Until she left the city, she was still very depressed, and her diet had lost a lot, and I saw that every time she moved a little, there was a painful look on her face, so I asked, "What's wrong with you?" The injury is not healed? ”

Zhu Yanxue didn't look at me and didn't answer. I pouted, walked over to her, took her horse, and took advantage of her unpreparedness, and pushed her in the chest, and sure enough, she immediately screamed, and I saw that the situation was not right, so I ordered the soldiers to go away, and then I untied her corset, and only then did I untie her underwear, and then I saw that blood had oozed from the pure white underwear, and frowned, "This is caused by you kicking the bad guy too hard." ”

Zhu Yanxue still didn't answer, I simply applied gold sore medicine for her, then walked to my horse, took out a wide hooded cloak from the baggage, and brought it to her, saying, "You wear this dress, and when you put the hat on, others will not be able to see your face." ”

Zhu Yanxue glanced at me, seemed to think for a while, and then took the cloak, draped it on his body, and after putting on the hat, he covered half of his face, which actually showed a different exotic flavor. Her eyes are extremely beautiful, smart and arrogant, with a touching charm, I looked at it a few more times, and I was a little obsessed, so I said, "The scar will slowly fade away, and when the prince becomes the emperor, any kind of doctor can be found, don't worry about not curing your face, don't worry." ”

Zhu Yanxue looked at me again, this time the hostility was much less, and after a long time, she said, "I want to wear a half-face mask." ”

I was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood what she meant, and said, "Okay, when you go to the next market town, I'll find a good craftsman for you to fight." ”

Zhu Yanxue did not speak, but rode on his horse and walked forward, and I followed, and in another market, I found a craftsman with a good reputation, gave him a piece of gold, and said, "Use this gold to make half of the girl's very thin mask and put a pattern." The thinner you can beat, the more gold you save, and what you save will be yours as wages. ”

The craftsman was overjoyed to hear this, and immediately went and pulled up the bellows and began to work. Sure enough, he is worthy of being a clever and capable person, but after half a day's effort, he created a half-gold mask according to Zhu Yanxue's face shape, the mask is so thin that it is almost like a layer of paper, and there is no feeling on the face, and there are fine orchid patterns on it, which is very exquisite, after Zhu Yanxue put it on, the corners of his mouth raised a slight arc, and whispered to me, "Thank you." ”

I also smiled, "No thanks." This mask suits you well and is beautiful. ”

Zhu Yanxue stretched out her slender fingers and rubbed the mask as if she were rubbing her own smooth skin from before, and I couldn't bear to interrupt her, so I stood silently aside and thanked the craftsman.

When he set off again, Zhu Yanxue was no longer as low as before, and occasionally said a few words to us, and a few would smile, just like that, after more than ten days, we caught up with Zhu Di's army. When it was different from what I thought, Zhu Di's army was still stationed outside Jinan City and did not attack it.

I originally thought that such a lonely city, without anyone to defend it, wanted to enter with Zhu Di's hundreds of thousands of troops, it was like a bamboo, but I didn't expect such a confrontation to be formed. When I arrived at Zhu Di's tent, he was standing in front of a sand table, looking at the sand table carefully, as if he was out of a trance.

It wasn't until I walked in front of him that he raised his head slightly, still frowning, and said lightly, "You're here." Then he bowed his head again and went on to study the terrain.

I couldn't help but wonder, "Texas didn't spend a single soldier, it was broken in one day, why hasn't Jinan City been captured for so long?" ”
