Volume 2 Jihui Ningdu Chapter 294 Pit Money and Pit Soldiers
Just from the voice, he could tell that it was himself, and Xu Xiang felt that this woman still had something.
There wasn't much interaction between the two, so to speak, just a nodding acquaintance. The fact that she can remember her own voice only shows that either she is well-read and has a strong memory, or she pays special attention to herself.
Xu Xiang prefers the second type.
"Sit." Rouge gracefully invited him to sit down, "Please have tea." β
Xu Xiang and the eldest grandson Mingling sat down in front of her, and her delicate face under the moonlight made Xu Xiang a little unable to contain his mind.
He involuntarily picked up his teacup and took a sip. I felt that this tea was very sweet, and the scene of "beauties under the moon, standing together" appeared in my mind.
"Xu Gongzi, did you come to me on purpose?" Rouge Zhu lips opened lightly and asked.
"Entrusted by Yuan Gongzi, I came to say hello to the girl." Xu Xiang nodded and replied.
"Yuan Gongzi?" Rouge's eyes were a little dazed, and his expression was lonely, "Is he okay?" β
He shook his head slightly, asking β to be as awake as possible.
β...... Xu Xiang, Xu Xiang, this is His Majesty's woman, and you can't think about it!" He said to himself in his heart.
He put the teacup down, trying not to squint his eyes, and make a gentlemanly gesture.
At this point, she performed perfectly, even if Xu Xiang was not disturbed by her, she couldn't see through it.
Seeing Rouge's pitiful appearance, Xu Xiang felt a strange feeling in his heart again, and he couldn't wait to take her into his arms.
The eldest grandson Mingling frowned, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Since the last time Xuanyuan Ding invited her to nibble on the chicken and taste Xu Xiang's newly brewed fruit wine, Xuanyuan Ding has not looked for her.
She met Xuanyuan Ding for the first time, and Xuanyuan Ding ransomed her body and raised her in the Jade Pavilion.
It's just that it's been so long, this "Yuan Gongzi" seems to have evaporated from the world, and now when she hears his news, her expression is naturally lost and with a hint of hope.
"What was I doing? Why am I doing this? He asked himself, feeling the weight of his sin.
"Young master, it's not too early. You have already come over on behalf of Yuan Gongzi, and you have seen that the rouge girl is fine. Should we go back? The eldest grandson Mingling gave him a look, which meant that this place should not stay for a long time.
Xu Xiang comprehended and said: "Rouge girl, don't worry, Yuan Gongzi is fine, he left Ningdu in a hurry because of some things, so he didn't have time to say hello to the girl." However, the matter has been almost dealt with, so I specially asked Xu to come over to visit the girl. Now, Xu has completed the entrustment of Yuan Gongzi, so he will not bother the girl. β
This woman exudes an aura of charm everywhere, although this charm is completely incompatible with the charm she is familiar with, but her sixth sense tells her that she must leave with Xu Xiang immediately.
"Young Master!" The eldest grandson Mingling gently patted him on the back and conveyed a stream of true qi into Xu Xiang's body.
Xu Xiang instantly reacted with a stirring spirit.
"Then Xu will leave first."
"Rouge sent Xu Gongzi."
Xu Xiang waved his hand and hurriedly said, "No...... Not necessarily. β
"Then when will Yuan Gongzi come back to pick me up?" She had beautiful eyes, and when she saw that Xu Xiang was about to leave, she asked eagerly.
"Half a month at least, two months at most." Xu Xiang got up and said.
"That's good." A smile finally appeared on the corner of Rouge's mouth.
Rouge's originally beautiful and weak face became a little deep, and he slowly shook his head and said, "You can't kill him." β
"Why," the black shadow asked puzzled, "It's rare for my subordinates to see a man who can resist the girl's charm, and it's also in the case of the combination of the Heavenly Immortal Jade Dance and the Liberation Heart Tea." If he doubts the girl's identity, will it affect the girl's plan? β
A smile appeared on the corner of Rouge's mouth, and he said, "The person next to him, have you paid attention?" β
He knew that his previous performance must have fallen for this woman's move, but fortunately, he had a reminder from the eldest grandson Mingling, so he didn't fall into it.
After Xu Xiang and the eldest grandson Mingling left, a dark shadow walked out of the flowers and grass.
"Girl, do you want to ......," the shadow said, making a gesture to wipe his neck.
"This Xu Changsha's identity is not simple, you must find out his origin within three days! Also, Xuanyuan will definitely arrive in Ningdu soon, you let everyone prepare! β
"Yes!"
Walking out of this courtyard, Xu Xiang had a feeling of fear, and at the same time, he was glad that he had brought his eldest grandson Mingling over.
"It's just a small thing." The dark shadow said disdainfully.
"Poof! The dignified innate master is recognized by you as a small guy. Wei Qingshan, what's the use of your eyes? β
"Huh? That little guy is a congenital master? This...... How can it be? β
Moreover, rouge was not the main purpose of his visit to the Jade Pavilion this time, there was another dangerous person he was talking about!
In fact, at the beginning, Xu Xiang just thought that she was an ordinary dusty woman, and she was favored by Xuanyuan Ding by chance.
It's just that now he won't have such a naΓ―ve idea anymore!
"Mingling, what happened to me just now?" Xu Xiang asked.
"You've fallen for her charm, and you still don't know it!" The eldest grandson Mingling said angrily, "You already knew that you were going to see such a dangerous person, how could you not take any precautions?" β
"Dangerous people?" Xu Xiang was stunned, the dangerous person he said at the beginning was not rouge.
That can only show that she deliberately approached Xuanyuan.
As for what her purpose is and what kind of power she belongs to, it is unknown.
"Miss Mingling misunderstood, the dangerous person I am talking about is not her, but someone else!"
Especially now that he remembers that after the eldest grandson Mingling said that she was a master of the innate level, he didn't care at all because of his confusion.
A congenital master, no matter where he goes, is he not fragrant? Dusty with it?
If she was really just an ordinary dusty woman, how could she have waited so long?
And Cui Mi, a gentleman, naturally began to be arrogant in Ningdu, not only taking his servants everywhere to have fun every day, but also being very arrogant.
Of course, this is limited to the territory of the family and the aristocracy.
At this moment, in a room of the Jade Pavilion, Cui Mi was discussing some topics of nurturing offspring with a beautiful woman.
"Someone else?" This time it was the turn of the eldest grandson Mingling to be stunned.
After the chaos in Ningdu began, the Warden Department could be said to have completely stood on the opposite side of the Ming clan.
As the head of the prison department, Shi Cuiyun naturally kept pace with Lin Chong, and he also got a lot of power for this.
Xu Xiang didn't expect Cui Mi to be so fierce, he entered the city this time just to find Cui Mi.
When he was in the Yellow River Beach Town before, he wanted to prepare silver for Zheng Haolan and Liang Sitong, and the first thing he thought of was Cui Mi.
However, considering that he still owes Cui Mi a lot of money, he thinks that Cui Mi will probably beat himself up when he sees him this time.
It was when they were very energetic that the two began to do the actual operation.
As the voices in the room came and went, Xu Xiang and eldest grandson Mingling, who were eavesdropping outside the door, couldn't help frowning.
"Young Master...... You brought me here to listen to the root of the wall? The eldest grandson Mingling's face turned red, and he scolded Xu Xiang for being obscene.
Unexpectedly, I came to see her this time, but I found her abnormality.
However, these things are not something he can solve at the moment, and it is a big deal to remind Xuanyuan Ding himself.
With the "elective" task assigned by Xuanyuan, he returned to the topic and asked Cui Mi to borrow money.
That's why he brought the eldest grandson Mingling, and also characterized Cui Mi as a dangerous person.
As for the matter of rouge, Xuanyuan decided to instruct himself to come to the Jade Pavilion to visit her.
Of course, Xuanyuan Ding didn't force herself, she was just a dusty woman after all, and it was really incidental to come to visit her.
As for why he didn't wait for him outside, he had to come to the Qinglou, which is related to an eternal topic, that is-coincidence.
If you wait for him outside, although Cui Mi is stupid, he is not stupid, and he will definitely wonder if Xu Xiang is looking for him! .
Xu Xiang has used money from him many times, and every time he says it is so tempting, but until now, he has not seen a son, and he is naturally very dissatisfied with Xu Xiang in his heart.
Yang Dianfeng had already heard that Cui Mi liked a girl from the Jasper Pavilion very much, and she would come over almost every day, so he would enter the Jasper Pavilion.
It didn't take long for there to be a murmuring sound in the room, which should be the sound of Cui Mi getting dressed after she was satisfied.
Although Cui Mi came to Jade Pavilion to have fun, he would definitely not stay here, so he would definitely leave.
This small lake is rumored to have a fairy bathing here, and it has been passed down to this day.
The Tanghu Mountain next to it is now bare, and there are very few residents around.
Ten years ago, there was a fire on the mountain, and it was said that evil spirits lived in the mountain, so the fire of justice was rained down by genius.
I still want to make money from him, save it!
Therefore, entering the Qinglou and then having a chance encounter will not make Cui Mi think about it more.
Tanghu Mountain is a low peak in the west of Tongxin City, and there is a small lake next to the peak, which is called Tanghu Lake.
It wasn't until he was about to attack Tongxin City that after he looked at the map, Chen Zhi remembered that his father had told him about it at that time.
Since he surrendered to Xuanyuanding, there is no reason why he should not make a move when Xuanyuan Ding needs troops.
So, the idea of the Tanghushan garrison was raised.
The surrounding residents were forced to move to other places, and at that time, the Tongxin City Government directly ordered the closure of the mountain, and except for one or two households, no one lived at the foot of the mountain.
In fact, this group did not really fall from the sky, but at that time, Chen Ru secretly trained here in order to seal Tanghu, so he set this fire and drove the people away.
It's just that many people don't remember this matter, after all, ten years have passed, and Ming Heng is busy fighting for power, leaving it behind, and leaving everything to Chen Ru.
The more Chen Zhi climbed, the more sweat on his forehead, judging from the degree of weeds growing on this mountain, there was no sign of human activity here, that is to say, there would definitely be no trace of the Tiger Ben Army in the place where he had been.
The further he went, he saw that the weeds on the eastern side of the mountain were slightly sparser than in other places, and he also saw many marks of horses' hooves.
"It seems that the Tiger Army should be on the side of Dongshan." Chen Zhi thought to himself, and then walked towards the east.
Chen Zhi reined in the horse at the foot of the mountain, this mountain road is rugged, this horse can't climb the mountain at all, he can only go on foot.
At that time, the father-in-law only said that the 3,000-strong tiger army was in Tanghu Mountain, but he did not say where it was. The mountain was bare, and all the big trees on the mountain had been burned, leaving only lush weeds.
There is a flowing river on the east side of Tanghu Mountain, one end of the small river is connected to Tanghu Lake not far away, and the other end is connected to Guangji River.
"He's broken through our first trap!" The sharp-eyed creep said.
Chen Zhi looked at the trap under his feet, and was very sure that this direction must be the direction of the Tiger Ben Army camp, otherwise he would not have set up such a dangerous trap.
He almost got hit just now, but fortunately he didn't let his guard down and was always cautious.
At this time, in the midst of a field of weeds, several people in green leather armor were looking at Chen Zhi who was walking east.
"Captain Wu, this person is coming in the direction of our camp, do you want to go out and stop him?" A soldier whispered to the man in charge.
"Let's wait and see what happens! It's been almost ten years since no one came. What is he doing here? Did you come here specifically for our Tiger Army, or did you accidentally come here? The captain said in a low voice, signaling everyone not to act rashly.
"Dare to ask you, but you are the people of the Tiger Army?" He asked.
When the man heard his words, his face changed, there were not many people who knew about the Tiger Army, after all, it was the army that Chen Ru secretly trained for Ming Heng, and there were very few people who knew it, could it be that something was wrong?
So the man danced with a spear in his hand, pointed the tip of the spear at Chen Zhi, and asked vigilantly, "Who are you?" Why do you know about the Tiger Army? β
"Stop!" Suddenly, he heard a neutral voice, and then a middle-aged man in green leather armor appeared on his right, the man was holding a spear, his face was very energetic, and behind him were three men with longbows, the bowstrings were already full, and the arrows were pointed at him, as if if they would give him an arrow if they disagreed.
"It seems that this is the person of the Tiger Army! It is worthy of the army trained by the righteous father, this scout is still dressed so hidden! Chen Zhi couldn't help but think with emotion in his heart.
"Who are you?" The man with the spear asked sharply.
Subsequently, under their "escort", Chen Zhi came to the camp of the Tiger Ben Army, which was a huge natural cave, and the entrance of the cave was guarded by soldiers like them.
After verifying his identity, he was questioned in the same way, and let them in.
Although Chen Zhi was holding a jade talisman token, the authenticity of his identity and token could not be confirmed by a few of their soldiers. So after entering the cave and going through ten more levels, he was finally taken to a large natural platform.
"I am Chen Zhi, the son of the late Governor Chen Ru of Heyuan Mansion, and I have come to mobilize the Tiger Army! This is a jade talisman token! Chen Zhi took out the jade pendant left by his father-in-law and lit it up in front of them, and then said.
When the leader saw this jade pendant, his face softened slightly, but he didn't let his guard down, and the people behind him didn't even put down their bows and arrows.
"I can't confirm the authenticity of the token! I have to be wronged that you follow me to the camp to see the general! The man at the head said that their Tiger Ben Army was divided into three kinds of tokens, one was the Fish Fu Tiger Ben Military Order, which could mobilize a battalion of men and horses to carry out the task; The other is the Tiger Talisman Tiger Commander's Order, which is the military talisman of the Tiger Ben Army.
This platform is very wide, there are twenty or thirty acres, there is a big camp in the north, the camp gate is written on the two big characters of "tiger ben", and the voice of shouting and killing drills will never stop.
To the southeast of the camp is the edge of the platform, and twenty or thirty meters below the edge is a lake, on which more than 20 large boats are still stayed, and there are also many sailors training.
This enclosed place is completely under the cave except for the lake, and no light shines in. But because of the light on the other side of the lake, it's not dark here.
He was taken to a barracks, where he was still guarded by these men, while someone else went to inform the commander of the Tiger Army.
After a while, a tall and mighty man in armor walked in, his face looked like a brave man at first glance, and he couldn't help but admire his father-in-law's eyes!
