Chapter 249: Stalemate (II)

Shi Kuo returned to the city to defend, Meng Tuo went out of the city to lure the enemy, Fu Ji would definitely choose to attack the city in Meng Tuo led the troops and Shi Meng and Shi Min had not returned to the city, when Shi Kuo defended Youzhou, if the Shi family wanted to be a yellow bird, then it must be done

"Now let's see if Shi Kuo can come back quietly." Changting breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, Bai Chun, who was following behind him, heard it, and said softly when he walked through the verandah, "Why don't you talk to the county monarch directly?" Now that you are married to the Shi family, we are in the same boat to say that it is cheesy, so why beat around the bush? ”

Bai Chun grew up in the Shi family, the family is all from Shifu, it was the last time Changting returned to Pingcheng, the Yu family sent it, and sent a room, I am afraid that Changting will not be able to stand in the Lu family's old mansion, so the biggest difference between Bai Chun and Man Xiu is that Man Xiu relies on and trusts Changting wholeheartedly, because she has no way to retreat. And Bai Chun thinks more, such as now.

Changting smiled and replied to her politely, "Do you say that Junjun is closer to Ah Tuo, or is he closer to Shi Kuo?" ”

Bai Chun did not hesitate, "Naturally, it is Erlangjun, although the assassin Shi values Dà Langjun more, but the mother and son are heart-to-heart, and of course the son is closer than the nephew and nephew and daughter-in-law." ”

"Then if I directly propose to let Shi Kuo come back to help Ah Tuo at this juncture, how will Junjun feel?" Changting paused slightly, smiling slightly, "Thorn Shi Zhi is in the world, only his three sons will take over his class, no matter who is on the throne, Atuo can only be a humerus minister, I will ask the lord to come up and relieve the siege of his subordinates Now the world is so chaotic, although Youzhou and Jizhou are not far apart, but the road is still not very peaceful, Shi Kuo wants to return to the city is tantamount to another dangerous journey, you think after the incident." What would the Junjun think? ”

Bai Chun is indeed not Man Xiu, while Man Xiu was pretending to be calm and meditating on the side, Bai Chun's face changed slightly, but he was a little frightened when he thought about it.

Now that there is a stalemate, let Shi Kuo come back to protect Meng Tuo and Jizhou, but once the stalemate is over, people with many eyes will think. The main master of the Shi family came to relieve the siege of his subordinates. Isn't that ridiculous? Changting wasn't sure if the Yu family would think like this, but she couldn't hope what the Yu family would think, and the situation between her and Meng Tuo was very embarrassing. She had to think bigger. Changting understood very well that she would think so, but it was because she had not yet regarded the Shi family as her own family, if it was replaced by Zhending and Lu Changying. She didn't even need to say hello.

Bai Chun nodded to show that she understood, and Changting patted her hand. sighed loudly, when the Cui family and the Xiao Yu family entered the door, she would only think more.

And Yu's early revision book recalled Shi Kuo's behavior, which made Changting still a little moved in addition to the accident. At the same time, he was a little ashamed - in fact, the Yu family really treated Meng Tuo as a son, at least, the Yu family really regarded Meng Tuo as his own family.

Man Xiu saw that the two of them were silent. After thinking about it, he was a little sad and angry, and called out. "Girl"

Changting absentmindedly replied "sigh".

"Let's bring Miss Hu with me next time." Man Xiu tugged at the corner of his clothes and said angrily. Changting was stunned for a moment and asked her, "What's wrong?" Man Xiu looked up at the sky, stopped talking, and brought Miss Hu with her, at least she wasn't the stupidest one

When the matter is at an impasse, there must be a knife to break the situation, Yu Xiushu to Youzhou to do this knife man, and then the matter intensified, Yongzhou half copper city collapsed, Meng Tuo stayed in Yongzhou people rushed to the half copper city non-stop, but the miners were pressed under the mine for a while and a half will not be able to rescue, the family members were in an uproar, uproar, and then there were people with a heart to fan the flames, the half copper city was instantaneous like fire and water, the half copper city wall is not guaranteed, faintly endangering the inner city of Yongzhou, Meng Tuo received an urgent letter of 800 miles for three consecutive days, Meng Tuo's eyes narrowed after reading Nobunaga, his voice did not fluctuate, and he said with Changting, "Yongzhou, Jizhou, there is always a city, Fu Ji is bound to win." ”

Changting could only pray secretly for blessings, hoping that Shi Kuo would come back sooner and sooner. As long as Shi Kuo returns, Meng Tuo can lead his troops out to relieve the siege of Yongzhou without any worries.

At night, the gate of the mirror garden was knocked on by someone's "buckle", one door passed two doors, two doors entered the main hall, the lanterns were lit up one after another, Changting heard that Manxiu came to report and immediately turned over and got up, and saw that Meng Tuo was dressed properly and hurriedly changed his clothes and combed his hair, and then asked someone to invite Zhang Li, "Please Mr. Zhang get up and meet at the second gate, Manxiu, you go to the outer courtyard to prepare a sedan chair, Bai Chun, you put all the letterheads on the desk and bring them, oh, I forgot to bring the letter pressed at the bottom of the paperweight." ”

Changting quickly finished confessing, wrapped in a coat, and followed Meng Tuo to go out, late autumn and early winter, cold wind and depression, quiet at night, very few people on duty in the courtyard, a push of the door, a wind poured into the house, the outside was dark, Changting unconsciously trembled, wrapped his clothes tightly, Meng Tuo stretched out his hand to wrap Changting into his arms, Changting suddenly heard Meng Tuo whisper a word, "In the second half of your life, I will definitely tell you to sleep." No one wants to make a fuss about you in the middle of the night. Before Changting could raise his head, Meng Tuo buried his head, and a light kiss fell on her temples. Changting leaned on Meng Tuo's arms, listening to Meng Tuo's heartbeat "bang bang", which was very powerful.

Meng Tuo rode a horse, Changting and Zhang Li took a sedan chair, and arrived at the Shi family's mansion for a moment, entering the gate, the Shi family was dark, only a few maids with lanterns came to pick up, Meng Tuo did not squint, and asked calmly, "How long has the second brother been back?" ”

"Jiangcai" the maid replied, Xu Shi received the advice at the beginning, and simply finished speaking, "Erlangjun only brought thirty people with him, and walked the old road of Choushan, and the general's talent came back, and as soon as he came back, the county monarch sent someone to invite you and his wife over." Jiro-kun is waiting for you in the main hall right now. ”

Meng Tuo nodded, then remained silent, and quickened his steps to walk inside.

The long pavilion also followed closely, along the way, only the main hall in the whole mansion was brightly lit, the door curtain was lifted, and the long pavilion saw Shi Kuo sitting on the lower left, he should not have had time to change his clothes, black clothes, black cloth, because of the late night, the corners of the clothes were stained with dew, and the clothes were moistened into a darker color. Shi Kuo heard a noise at the door, and immediately got up and walked two steps quickly, Meng Tuo took a stride, and called in a deep voice, "Second brother! ”

Shi Kuo patted Meng Tuo on the back, did not say hello, and asked directly, "How is the situation in Yongzhou?" ”

Meng Tuo made a long story short, "The Bantong City mutinied, and there were people who fanned the flames to make things bigger and bigger, and the officials I left behind were accused by the people of doing nothing, and now even the Assassin Mansion is surrounded by people." If I don't preside over the situation again, most of the inner city of Yongzhou will not be guaranteed. ”

Shi Kuo asked again, "How many people are you going to take with you?" ”

"A thousand is enough." Meng Tuo already had a ravine in his heart, "We must leave people to guard Jizhou, once Jizhou is empty, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Shi Kuo looked at Meng Tuo and did not speak. Meng Tuo's face did not change, and then he said in a deep voice, "Second brother, I will guard Yongzhou." ‘

Meng Tuo's voice gradually sank, "Aunt Jizhou and Changting, please leave it to you." (To be continued) I580
