Chapter 22: You Don't Deserve Her Shoes (Supplement)
"What?" As soon as Fu Chengwen came out of it with sleepy eyes, he heard this, and he was immediately startled, and his sleepiness disappeared, he walked forward quickly, and asked the messenger nervously: "What you said is true?" ”
The soldier who reported the news gasped, nodded again and again, and said with a look of panic on his face, "Yes...... It's true, Leader Qin personally ordered the camp to be pulled out, and he was about to set off! ”
There is still a chasing army behind, and it is natural that they want to pull out the camp and set off, but the leader of Qin did not send anyone to inform them, which is too problematic.
The people present were not stupid, hearing this, Li Xiangguo, Sun Shangshu and the others suddenly became very ugly, only Xue, as if in a dream, didn't know what was going on.
Sun Shangshu's face was even more anxious, and he sighed after a long pause: "How is this good?" Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what do you say we should do now? ”
"Yes, Your Highness, you can't let the Red Lotus Army just leave! Once they're gone, what are we going to do? ”
"Don't let Leader Qin go!"
The other ministers were no longer there and wept bitterly, and began to echo them, all of them looking particularly anxious and pessimistic, and some even raised their sleeves to wipe their tears.
Fu Chengwen was also extremely frightened in his heart, he, like Li Xiangguo, was also lucky, thinking that the other party was just saying angry words to scare them, how could they really leave them alone?
So he even had the heart to sleep, and now that he knew that the Red Lotus Army was really leaving, regardless of them, his whole person was flustered.
He reflexively looked at Li Xiangguo, wanting him to make up his mind for himself, but when he thought of this, it was all because of him, and he immediately became angry, he glared at Li Xiangguo angrily, pinched his throat and asked, "Li Xiangguo, what's going on?" Didn't you say last night that you were going to make amends to Leader Qin this morning and ask for her forgiveness? Didn't Leader Qin forgive you. ”
Li Xiangguo was full of wolves, and said hesitantly: "Your Highness, this ...... Lao Chen...... That's what the old minister said, but the old minister hasn't had time to go yet! The old minister originally planned to go later, but who knows, they are going to leave now......"
"You...... How could you not go? She's really going to go now, who will protect us? What the hell did you do before? Fu Chengwen was almost mad by him, and said angrily.
In fact, those who know Li Xiangguo know that Li Xiangguo has never relied on one mouth, everything is just a mouth, and he has no action at all, so let him do something, and he can't do it in the Year of the Monkey.
Fu Chengwen trusts Li Xiangguo so much, he will believe whatever he says, and sooner or later it will be a tragedy.
Just look at the current situation, just from the beginning of Li Xiangguo's bad idea last night, picking up Fu Chengwen to blackmail the Red Lotus Army, and now he is shrinking and refusing to take responsibility, so that the situation is getting worse and worse, it can be said that this so-called Li Xiangguo caused it single-handedly.
And Li Xiangguo was also very angry, he was originally very respected and trusted by Fu Jingshan and Fu Chengwen's father and son, and he was the prince's father-in-law, but Fu Chengwen dared to scold himself in front of everyone, which made him very embarrassed.
Therefore, he also lowered his face, blew his beard and glared at him: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, what is your attitude? Didn't the old man teach you that Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face did not change? It's just a little thing, and you're in a mess, and you're going to run a country in the future. ”
After speaking, seeing that Fu Chengwen's anger had subsided a little, and his face was ashamed, he relaxed his tone and said, "The old minister didn't say no, didn't I come to visit Your Majesty?" And that's not even time to go! Since I said I was going, would I still lie to you? ”
The prestige that Li Xiangguo has always established in front of Fu Chengwen is not so easy to collapse, not to mention, Fu Chengwen has always trusted his words very much, and even, more respectful than his parents, and even in awe, who made him still Fu Chengwen's teacher!
"Father-in-law, it's the son-in-law who has lost his temper, and I ask my father-in-law to forgive me." Fu Chengwen took a deep breath, sorted out his expression, bowed down and said, "Son-in-law, this is also too anxious, so it will be like this, I am afraid that you will be late, and they will leave." ”
"You can teach." Li Xiangguo stroked his beard proudly, "Don't worry, I have my own plans for this matter." ”
As soon as Fu Chengwen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the anxiety in his heart quietly retreated.
The other ministers looked at each other, obviously not believing Li Xiangguo's words at all.
"This ...... What the hell is going on? The Red Lotus Army has been drawn from the camp? Why didn't anyone inform us? At this time, Xue finally had a chance to speak, she frowned, with a little displeasure, and asked anxiously.
Although she was a little confused about what was going on, there was one thing she figured out, the Red Lotus Army was leaving, and she didn't plan to take them with her?
Even if it was her, she couldn't help but lift her heart.
"Don't worry, the queen doesn't worry, there is nothing big, and the old minister will take care of everything." Lee Sang-kook said confidently.
Influenced by her husband and son, the Xue family also trusted Li Xiangguo a lot, and when she heard this, she was a little relieved, but she just felt a little uneasy.
But seeing Li Xiangguo's determined face, she thought that she was thinking too much, and sure enough, she put this matter down, and her thoughts returned to the incident just now, and muttered: "Hmph, it's really cheap for her, let her go this time, and when it comes to the evening, when I have time, I'll question her again." ”
Now, she regrets a little in her heart, why should she prevent her husband from taking her as a concubine for selfishness, if her husband marries her, wouldn't these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses belong to their Great Zhou, so they still need to act with her face? It is also justified to dispose of her by herself, even that Qin Youan can also become a help to his son.
What a good thing, but she didn't figure it out at the beginning, and secretly guarded against her.
If Qin Shu knew what the Xue family was thinking, he would definitely kill him without saying a word.
This kind of foolish woman is a waste of food when she lives.
Anyway, the death of a Xue clan doesn't affect anything.
Hearing Xue's words, everyone present disagreed, but they didn't bother to explain to her.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you also order the camp to be pulled! If it's late, we won't be able to keep up. Lee Sang-kook urged.
"Do you need to be in such a hurry?" Xue asked, "How can we clean up this mess!" Is the coffin ready? ”
"Time is urgent, I just made a thin coffin, and I will make another one when I get to Guangxian!" Sun Shangshu said.
"What? How can this be? The Xue family was not happy, "Your Majesty is the respect of a country, and you have to use the most precious coffin in the world, a thin coffin?" You can also say it, this is simply the biggest insult to His Majesty. ”
Sun Shangshu had long been annoyed with this family, lowered his eyelids, and said coldly: "Since the queen mother is not satisfied, then order someone to do it yourself, right?" We don't have time to stay here. The minister was going back to pack his things, so he retired first. ”
After Sun Shangshu retreated, everyone else gradually retreated.
Xue was so angry that she almost scolded, she turned around and threw herself in front of the bed, crying: "Your Majesty, open your eyes and see, they are all against the sky, I am really miserable......
At the same time, Qin Shu was wearing armor and standing outside the tent with a high spirit, watching his soldiers quickly and methodically dismantle the tents, barriers, and traps, count the grain, grass and weapons, and burn and bury the garbage, Qin Shu's face also showed satisfaction.
At this time, Shi Lengyu and Gao Ping walked over with a stern face, knelt down on one knee in front of Qin Shu and said, "Chief, my subordinates have come to restore their lives." ”
Qin Shu nodded with a smile and said, "I'll ask again, have you all figured it out?" If you repent now, it's too late. ”
"Yes, my subordinates have already figured it out." Shi Lengyu said categorically, "In the future, I will always serve the Red Lotus Army, be loyal to the Red Lotus Army, and never betray." Otherwise, let me thunder and thunder. ”
"It's the same with subordinates, subordinates will join the Qin family's army, be loyal to the leader of Qin, and be loyal to the generalissimo of Qin.
After a night of consideration, Gao Ping had already made up his mind, anyway, he had no way out, and joining the Qin family army was not a good way out, so he was also extremely determined.
"Very good, get up!" Qin Shu stepped forward, personally helped them up, and said with a smile: "The Qin Family Army and the Red Lotus Army are all welcome to join us. ”
Shi Lengyu and Gao Ping both breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on their faces, and they nodded slowly.
"By the way, how are you cleaning up over there, there are many people who are willing to take refuge with you." Qin Shu asked.
"The soldiers under my command are willing to join the Qin family army with me, our lives were saved by the Red Lotus Army, and the Red Lotus Army is the expression of the Red Lotus Army on weekdays, so that they are all very admired and admired, and they are very happy to join the Qin family army." Shi Lengyu said with a smile.
Of course, there is another thing that Shi Lengyu did not say, that is, the various treatments of the Qin family army are also a major reason for attracting them.
"I'm not as good as General Shi, I only followed a thousand people, but they were all trained by me personally, although they are not elite soldiers, they are not much worse, and now they are ready, and they may set off at any time." Gao Ping said.
Qin Shu said: "Very good. For now, for now, but let me say it first, these men under your command will have to be dispersed sooner or later and distributed to the battalions, and you have no opinion. ”
This was brought out by them personally, and the feelings were deep, and Qin Shu was also worried that they would have a relationship.
Shi Lengyu and Gao Ping glanced at each other, and Shi Lengyu smiled: "We have long had this kind of awareness, besides, the soldiers under our command are all men, and it is impossible for them to join the Red Lotus Army!" ”
Gao Ping also smiled and bowed his head.
At the moment when they spoke, the 40,000 troops under Qin Shu's command had already rested and were ready to go.
After Qin Shu gave the order, the army finally started.
"Chief, do we really ignore them?" Cheng Qiuyu glanced back and asked Qin Shudao.
She knew about their mission.
Old God Qin Shu said on the ground: "No matter. If they continue to do so, they should kick their noses in the face again. ”
"yes, they're too arrogant, it's time to teach them a lesson. We have to let them know what will happen to them without our protection. Wan Xiong rode on his horse, his rugged face full of disdain.
"But what if they're all wiped out?" Cheng Qiuyu was worried
She wasn't worried about the other party, but about this mission and the reputation of the Red Lotus Army.
Under their protection, the Great Zhou is still extinct, but they are not damaged at all, what will outsiders think of them?
Wasn't their previous efforts in vain?
Qin Shu glanced at her soothingly, and said confidently: "Don't worry, the imperial army may not dare to catch up." Their purpose was just Fu Jingshan, and when Fu Jingshan died, they completed the task. Moreover, it can be seen from their previous behavior that they are very, very reluctant to fight us, otherwise, they would have caught up with us a long time ago, and would they use such a shady little means? ”
"Da Yan doesn't dare to fight with us, but when dealing with those people in Da Zhou, they may not let go of this piece of fat." Cheng Qiuyu was bent on planning for the Red Lotus Army, and always thought about it more.
Qin Shu laughed and said, "Qiu Yu, you underestimate them too much. Do you think that if I don't take them away, they won't follow? Hmph, people like them will definitely follow us with a dead face, and they won't dare to fall too far. As long as they fell behind, the Dayan army would not dare to act rashly. ”
"What? It's just outrageous. Lu Qingmiao said angrily: "Are they still shameless?" ”
"Does it matter if your face can have a life? If they want to follow, just follow them and ignore them. We can protect their lives without much effort, and we can teach them a lesson that they are living in fear, so why not! Not believing them is not honest. If they still don't repent, this so-called Great Zhou really doesn't have to stay. Qin Shu squinted at the front and said indifferently.
Sure enough, as Qin Shu said, Fu Chengwen took only 2,000 soldiers left, escorted them and others, and hurriedly went on the road with the coffin in a carriage. Because they were in too much of a hurry, and they were in a hurry to catch up with the Red Lotus Army, there were so many fewer people, and even the most effective generals, even if there were only two thousand soldiers, they were also commanded in a mess, and they didn't bring a lot of things, and even some food was abandoned, and they didn't even have time to eat breakfast.
They were almost exhausted from the journey, and they knew that it was almost noon, and they barely kept up with the tail of the Red Lotus Army, and they were only more than a mile away from the Red Lotus Army.
It was only at this time that Fu Chengwen and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and the marching speed slowed down.
The Xue family in the carriage bumped all the way, vomited several times on the road, and the whole person was about to collapse.
"This ...... What the hell is ...... What's going on? Xue said weakly, but with a fierce light in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and said, "Why are there only so many people left to protect us, the Red Lotus Army?" Why...... Don't protect us anymore? Still in such a hurry? Didn't Lee Sang-kook say that there was a way? Is this the so-called way? ”
In the carriage, there were only her and Li.
Li's face was not much better than hers, she endured the ** who wanted to vomit, and reluctantly replied: "It was our Great Zhou who offended the Red Lotus Army, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and ...... Xiangguo, wanting to shift the responsibility for His Majesty's assassination to the Red Lotus Army, and wanted them to compensate, the Qin leader of the Red Lotus Army was angry and said...... Won't protect us anymore, so ......"
"What?" Xue Shi glared at her in disbelief, and then, a wave of anger rushed to her head, and she said angrily: "How can she do this! This Qin clan is simply small-bellied, and a little thing is worth being angry about? Besides, the prince is not wrong, this is the responsibility of the Red Lotus Army. No, I'll have to go to her. ”
Xue Shi was about to stand up as he spoke, but as soon as he got up, he sat down weakly, and his eyes were black for a while.
She hadn't eaten much, and she vomited all the way, and now she can be said to be tired and hungry, how can she have any strength!
"Li, hurry up and get some food!" Xue's drink ordered Li to say.
Li said lightly: "There is nothing to eat." ”
"Why not?" Xue said, "Don't you have any dim sum?" ”
"Came out in such a hurry that I didn't bring anything. Didn't you bring a lot of things with you? Li said.
"You still dare to talk back to me, who gave you the guts!" Xue wanted to reach out to pinch her, but he didn't have the strength, so he could only look at her hatefully.
She only brought gold, silver and jewelry, how could she bring food, which was usually under the control of the Li family.
"It's all about death anyway, and it's better to starve to death than to be beheaded." Li Shi looked out the window and said, although she kept talking about death, her eyes were very calm.
"What beheading? What starves to death? Can you say something auspicious. It's really unlucky. Xue glared at her with disgust.
"Without the protection of the Red Lotus Army, sooner or later we will have to follow in the footsteps of His Majesty." After Li finished speaking, he suddenly turned his head to look at Xue, and a smile appeared on his face, but this smile looked inexplicably a little weird-
"Dear Queen Mother, until now, haven't you seen the reality clearly?"
"What reality?" Xue suddenly felt chills all over his body, and when he looked at Li's eyes, he was inexplicably a little frightened.
The current Li family is really wrong.
"Our big week is going to be completely finished!" Li Shi was still smiling, and even said in a relaxed tone.
"Slut, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xue's eyes contracted suddenly, he roared hysterically, grabbed a burden at hand and smashed it on Li's body, "Da Zhou will not perish, as long as my son is still here, Da Zhou will always be alive, it's a big deal to start over." ”
Li picked up the burden, it was heavy, she touched it, and it was full of gold, silver and jewelry.
she
Xue Shi didn't answer, she couldn't think at all now, just looked at her angrily.
Li chuckled lightly and said word by word: "The consequence is ...... All of us were beheaded, and the Great Zhou was completely destroyed. ”
"How dare you talk nonsense-" Xue roared with red eyes, "I'll tear your mouth apart!" ”
As he spoke, he threw himself at Li's body, but Li's movements were faster than her, and he reached out and slapped her fiercely, stunning Xue's body.
Li took a step back, leaned on the wall of the carriage, hid his trembling hands in his sleeves, looked at her unwillingly, and said hatefully: "I was miserable by your family, and you deserve this slap." ”
I have to say that the Red Lotus Army still affected her in the end, at least giving her the courage to fight against the Xue family, although it was in this situation where she was almost facing a dead end.
After saying this, she calmed down.
Seeing her holding her cheek with one hand, her eyes were sluggish, and her hair was in a messy bun, she suddenly wasn't afraid of her at all.
She had never been so happy and refreshed as she was now, and even the back that had been slightly hunched had stopped.
She tried her best to imitate the appearance of the Red Lotus Army soldiers she saw, sat up straight, straightened her chest and abdomen, raised her chin slightly, looked at Xue and said: "Xue, just rely on you, you dare to question Leader Qin, speak disrespectfully to Leader Qin, you don't pee to show what kind of virtue you are, see if you are worthy!" ”
Not only did she learn the demeanor and movements of the Red Lotus soldiers, but she even imitated their tones.
She had never spoken foul language, but at the moment, it was extremely natural.
"Don't tell me that you are the queen of the Great Zhou, how noble you are, you are naturally superior. If there was no Red Lotus Army, the Great Zhou would have perished long ago, and you, the queen mother, are worth a few pennies, I'm afraid you are not even as good as a beggar. In the face of the life-saving benefactor, you dare to speculate maliciously, and even become jealous of the head of the leader of Qin, do you think that all women are like you, and there are only men in your eyes? There is a sentence that you probably haven't heard of at all - the well frog can't speak the sea, the summer worm can't talk about the ice, and people like you probably will never understand the leader of Qin. Don't use your dirty mind to speculate about Leader Qin's thoughts, that will only make people feel disgusting. A person like you is not even worthy of carrying shoes for the leader of Qin. ”
