The second white twenty-four banquets
After a long time, Xu Rong silently walked out of the camp tent, in this army, only Xu Rong's military tent was far away in a corner, which seemed very lonely and desolate, especially when Qili and Ah Chu were also absent, an indescribable sense of loneliness finally quietly climbed into Xu Rong's heart, however, at this time, she was indifferent to it at all.

"Subordinates, see General Xu!"
Seeing Xu Rong walking in front of him, several patrolling soldiers hurriedly knelt down and saluted her. All along, Xu Rong did not allow other soldiers to approach his camp, and Xu Rong generally did not come out to inspect the camp. So at this time, her sudden appearance surprised these soldiers, and at the same time, they were all secretly worried: General Xu will not be angry, what reason to punish himself, right?
People are like this, in fact, Xu Rong has never really reprimanded any soldier harshly except for her weird appearance, but her weird appearance has already given the soldiers a sense of alienation, although she is superb in archery and has fought several tough battles, but the soldiers will only be in awe of her in their hearts, and will not feel close. Because the location of the camp tent was too remote, even Ah Chu and Qili just now, as well as Sima Li's dispute with her, no soldier knew.
"Get up, make a good inspection, and we'll go back to Luoyang tomorrow."
Xu Rong gently helped the soldier up, and was able to let the commander of the first army personally help him, and the soldier suddenly felt proud, and the fear of Xu Rong on his face was also a little less.
"Yes! The subordinates must live up to the general's trust! β
After the patrolling soldiers left, Xu Rong walked back to his camp alone, the empty camp tent looked gloomy and lonely, and now although it was early spring and March, he still felt cold to the bone. Xu Rong couldn't say whether she was lost or sad in her heart, she just felt that it didn't matter - in fact, revenge didn't matter; It doesn't matter if you kill your heart; It doesn't matter if you force away Qili and Ah Chu; It doesn't matter if Li'er is completely disappointed in her...... This may be that after she was finally able to "fulfill" the promise with the former "Dong Xiaoyou", she was completely relaxed spiritually, and she would have this feeling that everything didn't matter.
Xu Rong and Yi curled up on the big Hu bed, like a kitten, curled up their petite and delicate bodies into a ball, and soon fell asleep.
Following.
Since Pingdan, the army has pulled out the camp and returned to Luoyang. After the Battle of Bianshui, her original 11,000-odd troops were only less than 6,000 people, and the loss of troops was very serious. More guards were discussing: Why did the maids who followed General Xu disappear?
The march was very fast, and before it was afternoon, Xu Rong's army arrived in Luoyang, Xu Rong rode into the city of Luoyang, and the scene that greeted her was amazing: Is this still the original magnificent and luxurious capital Luoyang? The huge city has now been reduced to huge ruins, and some of the embers of the courtyard are still burning, and the pungent stench of rotting corpses is still unstoppable even if you cover your nose.
is worthy of Dong Zhuo, Xu Rong secretly admired: If what she did to the people and prisoners of war along the way can be said to be brutal, this Dong Zhuo's brutal ability is no less than herself. No wonder Dong Zhuo's intimacy with her is beyond words, maybe she and Dong Zhuo are now all the way. It's just a pity, now Dong Zhuo probably can't forgive himself.
However, Dong Zhuo behaved much more generously than Xu Rong imagined, he just ordered someone to take over the troops brought back by Xu Rong, but did not immediately take down Xu Rong, but only dispatched more than 100 elite soldiers to "escort" Xu Rong back to his home. said that he was going back to his home, but in fact, what Xu Rong lives in now is just a dilapidated courtyard with only one room left, and Luoyang City has been burned and looted by Dong Zhuo, so it would be good to vacate a vacant room for her.
It was near evening that an envoy from Bi Guiyuan came to summon Xu Rong:
"Lord Xiangguo has set up a dinner party, specially for General Xu Rong to pick up the wind and wash the dust!"
After Xu Rong thanked him, he smiled softly: I don't even use the word "celebration", it seems that Dong Zhuo is already so angry that he is still picking up the wind and washing the dust, is he taking poison or using a knife and axe to wash the dust for himself? She didn't have the slightest fear in her heart, just gently straightened the black cloth that had been wrapped around her body for several months, wiped the outer armor clean, and then followed the messenger's car to Bi Guiyuan.
"Please General Xu Rong unsheath his sword and take off his armor."
Xu Rong obediently handed over all the weapons he was carrying, and at the same time took off the armor: It wasn't hers in the first place, but now that it has been returned to its original owner, Dong Zhuo probably won't reward her with another armor or something.
Bi Gui Yuan is located in the southern suburbs of the original Luoyang City, and now it is more like a luxurious and luxurious city. The city wall is tall and solid, the palace is prosperous, the buildings and pavilions are pavilions, twists and turns, and it is really worthy of the palace that the first emperor spent a lot of money to build. Although Xu Rong has also seen many magnificent and gorgeous palaces, this Bi Guiyuan still opened her eyes: she couldn't imagine that the craftsmanship of these craftsmen, although they are mortals, can reach such a realm, and it can be said that it is ingenious.
The messenger took Xu Rong to a huge hall on the north side of Bi Gui Yuan, because it was only March, so after dusk, the sky was dark very quickly, but in the hall, the lights were bright, colorful, gorgeous and extraordinary, so that Xu Rong couldn't help but secretly think: This kind of bright color is not inferior to the future of "Dong Xiaoyou".
In the hall, except for a very small number of guards, only Dong Zhuo, his nephew Dong Huang, son-in-law Niu Fu and other close people were present, and the largest seat in the guest seat and the closest to Dong Zhuo was left for her Xu Rong.
"Mr. Xu, please, please be seated."
Seeing Xu Rong walk in, Dong Zhuo stood up and warmly entertained her. Today's Dong Zhuo is dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a military crown on his head, with a full body style, and a majestic look, even his slight obesity makes people look like he is magnificent, not bloated.
Dong Zhuo's warm reception made Xu Rong smile in his heart: Which play is this singing? Such an attitude makes people feel that she has not done something wrong, but has made a great contribution. Moreover, Dong Zhuo called her "sir" again, which also surprised her, but as the saying goes, there must be a demon when things go wrong, looking at it like this, Dong Zhuo probably really wanted to kill her, so he had such an attitude.
Since Dong Zhuo wanted to receive herself so cordially, Xu Rong would not give up, she just arched her hand and saluted Dong Zhuo more casually: "Meet Dong Xiangguo." β
Dong Zhuo paused slightly, but then he still smiled and groaned, and waved his big hand: "Mr. Xu, please!" β
"Xiangguo, please."
So the two sat down, Dong Huang in the distance saw Xu Rong's attitude, a look of displeasure flashed in his eyes, his mouth opened, and he wanted to reprimand Xu Rong, but Niu Fu beside him quietly pulled him, then winked at him, and shook his head gently, which meant to remind Dong Huang: Xu Rong is already a person waiting to die now, why bother with such a person about etiquette?
Although Niu Fu also understands: Dong Huang was once detained by Xu Rong during the Battle of Jinbei, such anger should indeed be released, but since his father-in-law is already going to kill Xu Rong, it doesn't matter, it is a very stupid act to be angry with the dead, if it weren't for Dong Huang's good relationship with him on weekdays, Niu Fu would not have stopped Dong Huang.
"Mr. Xu, since you left Beijing, you have fought hundreds of miles, gone through several major battles, and made great contributions to isolation.
Dong Zhuo said, picking up the glass full of wine.
In the banquet in the past, Dong Zhuo never specifically asked Xu Rong to drink, or felt that Xu Rong was too dull, or respected Xu Rong as a hermit and did not force it, but today, Dong Zhuo made it clear that he must have a "no drunk, no return" situation.
Xu Rong smiled lightly: Just drink it, now that they are all people who are going to die, what else does she have to scruple about? So, she generously picked up the wine glass in front of her and said to Dong Zhuo:
"I don't like to drink in the next, but since Xiangguo has commanded it, then ...... I will accompany Xiangguo in the next step. β
After saying this, she took up her glass and drank it all, because her face was also covered with a black cloth, so that only a little gap was revealed to eat, and she drank so boldly that a lot of wine was poured out and dripped on the black cloth on her faceβthis was indeed disgusting, but it did look heroic.
Dong Zhuo didn't mind this, but was happy for Xu Rong's unsightly free and easy demeanor: "Good! Mr. Xu is really a bold person! β
As he spoke, Dong Zhuo also drank it all, and then ordered a maid beside him to fill the two empty cups.
Xu Rong fixed his eyes: the maid was actually Kwai Ying next to Princess Wannian, but Xu Rong did not have the slightest hatred for her, unlike Xinyi, although Kwai Ying was not friendly to "Dong Xiaoyou", but in her heart she really cared about Bailing. Therefore, even if Xinyi has done so much for her, she still wants to poison Xinyi for Biluo's death, but she has no hatred for Kwai Ying.
It seems that Dong Zhuo does not put the people of the royal family in his eyes at all, the maids around Princess Wannian have been snatched by him to be maids, Kwai Ying is now about eighteen years old, it is the age of slim and slim, no wonder she will be taken by Dong Zhuo, a lustful old man, it is really her sadness.
It can be seen that Kwai Ying seems to have only been caught for a short time, her eyes when she looked at Dong Zhuo were full of fear, and the decisive spirit of killing on Dong Zhuo's body made Kwai Ying shudder. She shivered and poured the wine, Dong Zhuo coughed softly, which scared her a lot, her hand shook, and inadvertently knocked over a glass of wine in front of Dong Zhuo.
"Ahh
Kwai Ying's little face turned pale with fright, and she suddenly collapsed to the ground: "The slave knows that she is wrong, and she begs Xiangguo to spare her life!" β
Dong Zhuo looked at Kwai Ying indifferently, his expression was slightly displeased, and he gently said to the guard next to him who was about to come over with a knife:
"Forget it, it's a trivial matter, leave her alive, Nian has only been here for a short time, this time I chopped off her hands."
When Kwai Ying heard this, she hurriedly cried and begged:
"The slave knows her mistake and asks for the grace of the country!"
The guard walked over, dragged the Aoi Ying with one hand, and slapped her hard with the other, softly, but harshly: "You dare to make a loud noise, you don't want to die?" β
Xu Rong sighed in his heart, and then said to Dong Zhuo:
"Lord Xiangguo, if she is a first-time offender, let's spare her for the time being."
Dong Zhuo heard this and waved his hand: "Then listen to Mr. Xu!" β
So the guards withdrew, and Kwai Ying got up in a panic and thanked him and then retreated.
In fact, whether to save Kwai Ying or not, for Xu Rong, there is nothing, but he thinks that this person has a little sincerity to Bailing, and Xu Rong helps each other. Of course, it can also be said that "people are good at their words", after all, today, Dong Zhuo's main event is to kill himself, and a little maid can't affect anything.
Dong Zhuo's smile grew: "Didn't General Xu fall in love with the maid just now?" β
Xu Rong hurriedly shook his head: "That's not the case, it's just that I don't want the blood of the lowly to stain such a magnificent and luxurious palace." β
"Okay, okay."
Dong Zhuo clapped his hands, and he thought to himself at this time: Even if you really fall in love with that maid, I can't give it to you, because you are already unblessed. Xu Rong didn't guess wrong: Dong Zhuo had actually killed Xu Rong a long time ago.
Looking at Dong Zhuo, who had a kind and kind face, Xu Rong felt in his heart: Today is really a catastrophe, so it doesn't matter. Whether she is a human or a ghost, a god or a demon now, even she can't be sure in her own heart, and since she became one with that master, no matter what she did, her body didn't seem to feel tired, and after being in the army for so long, even Xinyi, Ah Chu, and Qili were worn out by the rough saddle, but she was the only one who was unharmed...... Therefore, she even felt that even if she let the knife and axe hand cut her down at this time, she might not be able to die, after all, who Sima Li's master was, even Sima Li didn't know.
Xu Rong picked up his glass again: Come on, I will accompany Master Dong Zhuo to the end today! (To be continued.) )
