Debt is not a trivial matter, the question of ownership must be clarified, the money was lent out by Li Su, when the war was coming, everyone was fully prepared for the war, and everything that was conducive to the defense of the city was passed without objection, so Li Su bought bricks, stones, and tiles from the merchants and received Cao Yu's full support, including playing white strips and stamping official seals, etc., at that time everyone wanted to hold the city and live, as for the money, it was after surviving.

Now that everyone has survived, the matter of money has inevitably been brought to the table, and when Cao Yu found out that the Xizhou Thorn Mansion had to pay off the debt, Cao Yu suddenly showed an expression that life was worse than death.

There is nothing to explain next, Xizhou has become a monument to Li Su's achievements, and it has also become an indelible memory for him, this city has given him too much.

Xu Mingzhu knelt in the handsome tent and arranged the dishes and chopsticks on the low table.

The time of marriage is not short, there are maids serving Li Su at home, clothes to reach out for food to open their mouths, since Li Su set foot on the westbound road, everything in life is controlled by Xu Mingzhu, used to respect each other like guests, until Xu Mingzhu has no regrets for him to pay so much, Li Su's heart door unconsciously opened to her, the relationship between the two has taken a big step forward, it can be said that in addition to the real round house, it is basically no different from ordinary couples, and Li Su's life is still taken over by Xu Mingzhu.

People have been getting along with each other for a long time, whether they get along or not, there is always one of the most basic gains, that is, understanding each other.

Some small habits and small problems in Li Su's life, Xu Mingzhu gradually mastered a lot, such as the hypocritical and annoying cleanliness habit, when the bloody battle in Xizhou, Li Su had a spear behind his back, and he refused to fall down at the last moment when the city was broken, one for the sake of unyielding backbone. The second ...... Because Li Su thought the ground was too dirty, he refused to lie down and die.

is also like Li Su's inexplicable and headache-inducing obsessive-compulsive disorder......

The corners of each garment must be neatly folded, and the shoes must be placed in an absolutely fixed place, which means "absolutely fixed". No matter at any time you close your eyes and find a fixed place outside the door, the shoes must be placed there impartially, and the dishes of each dish on the table during the meal, the size and specifications must be exactly the same, and they must be arranged neatly, sometimes in a line, sometimes in a word, sometimes in a word, almost in the middle of the table in the middle of the handsome flag in the military formation.

This kind of problem made Xu Mingzhu very unaccustomed to it at the beginning, and he had never seen such a hypocritical person since he was a child. Afterward...... In fact, I didn't get used to it later, but my husband was very insistent on this, and if it was slightly incorrect, this guy could be entangled all day with a frown.

So Xu Mingzhu had no choice but to conform to his wishes, and paid great attention to the symmetry and neatness of the left and right sides at all times.

The dishes on the table are very fresh, and it is a surprise that you can still eat emerald bracken in this vast desert. Counting the days, I haven't seen green vegetables for half a year.

But Li Su's brows were furrowed very tightly. Without saying a word, he stared at the dishes on the table, as if a white lotus flower had grown on the exquisite dishes.

Xu Mingzhu handed him a small dark yellow glass bowl, and seeing that Li Su frowned and didn't say a word, Xu Mingzhu shook his arm curiously: "Husband, let's eat." ”

Li Su was still frowning, staring at the table as if he had seen an enemy of life and death.

Xu Mingzhu followed his gaze. Seeing that there was nothing unusual on the table, he blinked in bewilderment, then stood up, took two steps back, and looked at it from a very strategic angle. Then, she finally realized that something was wrong.

The corners of his mouth twitched quietly, wanting to laugh but feeling very rude, Xu Mingzhu stepped forward and quietly moved the position of one of the dishes on the table to the left.

A small movement, but the effect was immediate, I saw Li Su's frowning brows like a warm sun shining on ice and snow, quickly melting at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the whole face was suddenly harmonious.

"Just now, I felt that these four dishes were not pleasing to the eye, and I always felt that something was wrong, Mrs. moved it slightly, oops, comfortable!" Li Su smiled with relief.

Xu Mingzhu couldn't cry or laugh: "Husband's habit is really ......"

"What's wrong? Those who don't kill or set fires don't get in the way of anyone...... Madame, if everything in the world were neatly symmetrical, the world would be more beautiful than what we see now. ”

Xu Mingzhu covered his mouth and smiled, then threw a pretty white eye at him, and said angrily: "The husband is just a lot of crooked reasoning, the concubine has heard too much, and he is confused, I don't know if the husband's truth is right or wrong." ”

Seeing that Li Su was finally willing to pick up the bowl to eat, Xu Mingzhu also took a bowl, and the husband and wife sat opposite each other and ate quietly.

Xu Mingzhu has been brainwashed by his parents for many years before he got married, and there are many rules in large families, and eating without saying a word is the most basic etiquette, so Xu Mingzhu eats very quietly, with a silver chopsticks, two small bracken, and after sending it into his mouth, his small mouth is tightly closed, chewing a few times quietly, swallowing gently, and his demeanor is very gentle and gentle, and his every move is closely related to the identity of Mrs. Destiny and the Li family's main room, and he is meticulous.

In contrast, Li Su's appearance when he eats is much worse, and he himself is not a person who pays too much attention to etiquette, and he has never said that he eats without saying anything and chewing slowly, saying that he is gobbling up, which is a bit excessive, but his demeanor during eating is really not related to the word "Sven".

Xu Mingzhu took a few bites of rice, and when he saw Li Su's appearance when he was chopping rice, he couldn't help but quietly show a happy smile.

Women are very strange, they pay attention to etiquette everywhere, and even when they eat, they are afraid that they will open their mouths wide when chewing and others will see their teeth indecent, but they like the more rude and more the man they love, the more the better.

Li Su not only eats without words, but also talks, and he likes to chat while eating.

"Madam, let's pack all the clothes that should be packed, I guess, let's leave Xizhou soon." Li Su's chopsticks rose and fell in the plate, while talking casually.

Xu Mingzhu was stunned and said, "Is there any news from Chang'an?" Your Majesty really wants to recall her husband back to Chang'an? ”

Li Su picked up the food and said without raising his head: "There is no news from Chang'an, but General Hou Junji gave me the wind, eight or nine is not far from ten, Xizhou is defended, General Hou leads the army to Gaochang Qiuzi, and the destruction of the country is in sight, the border of the Tang Dynasty will advance westward for nearly a thousand miles, and there is no place for me in Xizhou, if Your Majesty does not recall me back to Chang'an, I don't know what I can do if I stay in the Western Regions......"

Li Su said a lot, Xu Mingzhu blinked as if she didn't understand, seeing that Li Su was eating well, her attention was immediately focused on him, and she took a large piece of mutton stewed and quickly melted into juice into his bowl, but she didn't care too much about what Li Su said.

Although he didn't care, after all, there was still a lack of praise for his husband's speech, so Xu Mingzhu asked in a timely manner: "After all, it's an empty rumor, it's impossible to distinguish between truth and falsehood, what if Your Majesty doesn't summon your husband back to Chang'an?" ”

The pretty face gradually appeared sad, Xu Mingzhu sighed: "Ah Weng is at home alone, only some maids and miscellaneous servants serve, I don't know if I can follow Ah Weng's wishes, the husband and the concubine have been gone for more than two years, and it is a big shame to fail to be filial piety in front of Ah Weng, if Your Majesty does not call the husband back to Chang'an, what can I do." ”

Li Su said with a smile: "It's very simple, Your Majesty doesn't call me back, you will go back to Chang'an on my behalf to honor my father, I will continue to stay in Xizhou, after a while, I will be called sick, the kind that is sick to death, and then resign from the official title, with the credit of Xizhou defending the city, Your Majesty will probably not embarrass me again, it is no problem to go back to Chang'an, in the future, I will be a Taiping rich man, I will not worry about food and clothing all my life, until I am lazy to die, this kind of realm is a little stronger than Yuhua Ascending to Immortal......"

Xu Mingzhu sneered, glanced at him, and said: "The husband is talking nonsense, it doesn't matter if you say this in front of the concubine, but don't spread it outside, after all, it is a little disrespectful, and I am afraid that I will commit a taboo." ”

*****************************************************************

When Li Su was waiting for Li Shimin's holy decree in Xizhou, Hou Junji led the army of the Western Expedition into the depths of the Western Desert and marched along the Silk Road towards Gaochang and Qiuci.

In the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Hou Jun gathered a large army to enter the Gaochang national moraine, the lord of the country was shocked, and the courtiers urgently discussed, there are rumors that Lu Wentai and his wife and children hugged their heads and cried in the palace, and the sound was forbidden.

One wrong step, one wrong step.

Since he promised the Western Turks to attack Xizhou by the alliance of the Yipilu Khan, but was finally defeated, Liwentai's life is no longer his own master, his life is all in the hands of the Tang Dynasty and the Western Turks, both of which are great powers, it can be said that Yibilu Khan and Li Shimin are two, anyone who stretches out a little finger can kill him alive, but Liwentai is too arrogant, relying on Gaochang to be located on the main road of the Silk Road, and because of the grievances after the Tang Dynasty seized Xizhou, in short, he agreed to the Western Turks' joint army request, finally, Hou Junji's army came to the city to seek revenge for the siege of the city.

The envoys who rushed to Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty were sent out one after another, begging for peace, begging for mercy, in short, begging for forgiveness from His Majesty the Great Tang Heavenly Khan as quickly as possible, but even Lu Wentai himself felt extremely desperate, and he knew that he could no longer count on these envoys. From Gaochang to Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, the road is said to be three months or even five months, and this back and forth is almost half a year has passed, even if the envoys have been forgiven by His Majesty the Tang Dynasty Khan, when they return to Gaochang Kingdom, he is afraid that he has been wiped out by General Hou to the point that there is no scum left.

Of course, Lu Wentai is not stupid, he knows that he has caused a catastrophe, and he also knows that the person who caused him to break into this disaster is the Western Turkic Yibi Lu Khan, and he can't ask for forgiveness from His Majesty the Tang Dynasty Khan for a while, but the Western Turks are close to Gaochang Kingdom, and the Tang Dynasty attacked Gaochang, and the Western Turks can't see their allies trapped in death and not save them, right?

Therefore, the lord of Gaochang State, Lu Wentai, urgently sent envoys to the north to ask for help from the Western Turkic Yibi Lu Khan, and asked the Western Turks to send reinforcements to prevent the Tang Dynasty's Western Expedition from destroying the country.

This time, the envoy came back quickly, and the result was obtained in three days, but the result brought back by the envoy was not a good result, and there was only one bad news, -- the Western Turkic Yipilu Khan, led the leaders of various tribes, as well as most of the young and strong troops in the country, and went north to escape the summer......

When he heard the news, he immediately looked up to the sky and vomited blood, and ran to the north to escape the heat in the winter, such a nonsense reason not only insulted the alliance between the two countries, but also deeply insulted his IQ...... (To be continued.) )
