Chapter 364: Night (2)

"PS: Regarding the issue of supplementing the book review, I know that I still owe the chapter, and I don't mean to cheat. In fact, there have been a lot of things at home recently, such as decoration, running friends' weddings or something. For example, I actually have four chapters today, just because I'm going to attend my sister-in-law's son's birthday tomorrow. And a few days ago, my friend got married, so I forgive you with your book friends. But don't worry, I keep in mind the chapter I owe, and I will make up for it in the next few days.

But then again, I've been a little lazy lately."

β€”β€”β€”β€” the following textβ€”β€”β€”β€”

After chatting for a while, Wu Ji got up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, he looked at Mi Jiang who had been sitting in the corner of the tent drinking tea all along.

Although Mi Jiang's face is very heroic and more neutral, no matter how neutral it is, it will not make Wu Ji mistake the pale complexion of Mi Jiang as a man and Mi Jiang as a man, after all, most of the men in Wei are yellowish complexions, even if it is a guy like Zhao Hongrun, who rarely basks in the sun, the skin color cannot reach the level of Mi Jiang.

"She looks like a woman from her former homeland (Chu Kingdom...... Why are there women in the army? And he was still wearing the armor of a guard and staying in the tent of the marching commander of His Royal Highness King Su? Could it be ......

Maybe he thought of something, Wu Ji didn't dare to stare at Mi Jiang anymore, smiled at the latter, and left in a hurry with his head down.

Obviously, after Zongwei Shen Yu and others, Wu Ji also misunderstood the relationship between Zhao Hongrun and Mi Jiang.

"......" Qi Jiang watched Wu Ji leave the tent as if he had fled, and after judging from the footsteps that this person had walked far away, he asked in a low voice: "This person ...... Is it a Chu person? ”

"That's right." Zhao Hongrun did not mean to hide it: "This person was originally a thousand generals under the command of Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu, but now he is the general of the Shang Water Army, although he is young, but I faintly feel that 'this person can shoulder heavy responsibilities'." After a little training, maybe I can take charge of it on my own......"

However, Mi Jiang was not interested in the second half of Zhao Hongrun's words at all, interrupted him, and muttered: "You killed so many Chu people, I didn't expect him to be grateful to you...... Incredible. ”

"Isn't it incredible?" Zhao Hongrun sneered when he heard this: "In fact, this is not surprising. Those nobles of your Chu State, I mean the vast majority, they think that they are just dumping the wealth of the people, but in fact, they are prying the foundation of the Chu State. …… I can assert that in the future, more Chu people will flee from those greedy aristocratic fiefdoms to my Great Wei. …… If the hearts of the people are all towards my Great Wei, your Chu State will not be far from the country of death! ”

Speaking of which, Zhao Hongrun, who wanted to stimulate and stimulate Mi Jiang, found it strangely. Mi Jiang's complexion was as calm as ever, unaffected by the words 'dead country'.

Seeing this, he asked puzzledly: "You don't seem to be worried about the death of the Chu State at all?" ”

"......" Mi Jiang glanced at Zhao Hongrun when he heard this, and said lightly: "On the day when my deceased father was forced to die by the nobles of Chu Dong, in my heart, the state of Chu has long been shaped like a dead country. After that, she paused, and added in a sad tone: "Revitalize the Chu State." That was the long-cherished wish of the deceased father, and perhaps it was also the wish of Xiong Tuo's son. But not mine. If you want to provoke me with such words, then you will be disappointed, because I am not interested in the slightest whether the state of Chu will be destroyed. ”

"It's really ......."

Zhao Hongrun scratched his head, and then remembered that Mi Jiang had said something similar.

Just when he didn't know how to get the topic back, he suddenly heard Mi Jiang ask in a low voice, "You...... It is said that it sheltered more than 400,000 Chu people. He also gave them three cities to settle in, is it true? ”

"Don't you know?" Zhao Hongrun asked suspiciously.

"Sure." Throwing out an explanation, Mi Jiang raised his head and asked curiously, "As a Wei person, why would you treat those Chu people so kindly?" He said. She hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'm just asking casually, if it's inconvenient, you can not say it." ”

Zhao Hongrun didn't want to answer, but he faintly felt that the tone of the second half of Qi Jiang's sentence was almost pleading, and his heart softened, so he said, "It's not inconvenient." …… In fact, in my eyes, whether it is the Wei people or the Chu people, it is nothing more than different names and cultures, and there is not much difference, not all of them have a nose, a mouth, and two eyes, aren't they? ”

"......" Mi Jiang looked at Zhao Hongrun unexpectedly, then pursed his lips slightly and smiled, and said calmly: "No wonder you treat those Chu people well......

"She...... She smiled? She actually laughed?! How could she laugh?'

Although it was only a fleeting faint smile, Zhao Hongrun, who clearly captured this scene, was frightened.

Maybe in his heart, the normal state of Mi Jiang is the kind of woman with an expressionless face.

"Correct." Raising a finger, Zhao Hongrun said: "The 400,000 people have now returned to my Great Wei, and they are no longer Chu, but Shangshui people, Yanling people, Changping people, or Wei people." ”

As he said this, Zhao Hongrun carefully stared at Mi Jiang's face, hoping that the latter would laugh again, so that he could confirm that Fang Cai's scene was not a hallucination.

Unfortunately, his wish was never fulfilled.

"It's a pity that this face looks pretty when it smiles...... Yes, this is the ginger, right?"

Zhao Hongrun's mood was slightly complicated.

Probably sensing something from Zhao Hongrun's gaze, Mi Jiang frowned slightly, and said with some unswervingness: "I always feel that your eyes have a strong malice." ”

"Delusion, it's delusion."

As if he had seen through his thoughts, Zhao Hongrun hurriedly turned around, took off his boots and prepared to sleep under the covers.

Naturally, there could be no such thing as a bed in a marching tent like this, at most it was just a bed spread on the ground and a blanket to serve as a sleeping bunk.

But somehow, this kind of sleeping bunk that he was obviously used to when he attacked Chu State, but today Zhao Hongrun always felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't sleep.

"Is it a sleeping bunk?" Or ......

Muttering in his heart, Zhao Hongrun turned around, and his eyes happened to meet Mi Jiang, who was still kneeling in a corner of the tent.

I saw that Mi Jiang was still holding the tea, looking at him expressionlessly, and only raised the teacup to take a sip of tea from time to time.

"That's it!"

Zhao Hongrun screamed in his heart, and finally found the reason why he was uncomfortable.

"Hey. What are you doing? Zhao Hongrun asked with a strange expression.

"Watch." Mi Jiang said, "Isn't this obvious?" expressions.

"Is it necessary to do this?"

"I promised Yulong, and there is no room for loss." Mi Jiang said indifferently.

"But you stared at me like this, I couldn't sleep."

"That's your business." Mi Jiang is still indifferent.

"This guy ......"

Zhao Hongrun rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, and said unhappily: "Yulong didn't let you come over to make trouble for me, right?" As he spoke, he whispered, "I have a solution." ”

"......" Mi Jiang hesitated for a moment, and replied softly: "I'll listen." ”

"Or you do. Turned away with your back to me? ”

"......" Mi Jiang turned his head to look at the corner of the narrow tent behind him, and when he looked at Zhao Hongrun again, his eyes were already a little murderous.

Suddenly, she put down the teacup in her hand, raised her right hand to make a hand knife shape, and said expressionlessly, "I have a more convenient idea." ”

"No, not necessarily." Zhao Hongrun hurriedly turned around.

However, he felt uncomfortable. Still unable to fall asleep.

It's not so much that he cares about Mi Jiang, it's not that he cares a little about Mi Jiang who sits silently in the corner of the tent and guards him.

"It's autumn, and it's still pretty cool at night, right?"

Zhao Hongrun secretly glanced back at Mi Jiang, and with the help of the faint bonfire outside the tent, he was surprised to find that Mi Jiang had put away the tea utensils at some point, put them aside, and according to what Zhao Hongrun had just said. Sit quietly with your back to him.

γ€Žβ€¦β€¦γ€

Looking at this scene, Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Outside the tent at this time. The night wind had already blown, and the tent rattled.

Listening to the whirring night wind outside the tent from time to time, Zhao Hongrun looked at the figure with his back to him, and asked softly, "Hey, is it cold?" ”

"It's not cold." Mi Jiang turned his head slightly and said in a cold tone as always.

"Really?"

"Really."

"Really not cold? It's windy outside. And it's pretty big......"

"......" Mi Jiang frowned, turned his head and asked impatiently, "What do you want?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I just can't sleep...... Anyway, the sleeping bunk is quite spacious. The blanket is also big, why don't you come over too, and we can talk about something......"

"......" Mi Jiang frowned.

Suddenly, she stood up and walked towards Zhao Hongrun.

Zhao Hongrun thought she had accepted the proposal, and moved her body, but saw Mi Jiang raise her right hand and slash at the base of his neck with a hand knife.

Cleanly, Zhao Hongrun passed out before he even had time to react.

"Humph! Long-winded. ”

With a cold snort, Mi Jiang was about to get up and return to the original place, but she didn't want to see the place that Zhao Hongrun had vacated for her out of the corner of her eye.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, when the sky was bright, he led Su Wangwei to guard outside the commander's marching tent for half a night, and Shen Yu, the head of the sect guard, who had not slept for a few hours, was awakened by the guards who took over the defense of the second half of his night.

He yawned, lifted the tent, and walked into the handsome tent where Zhao Hongrun was resting.

Suddenly, he froze and rubbed his eyes vigorously.

It turned out that on the sleeping bunk in the tent, Zhao Hongrun and Mi Jiang were lying there back to back, wrapped in the same blanket.

"Sure enough...... But why is it back to back?'

The first question that came to Shen Yu's mind turned out to be this.

"Your Highness? Your Highness? ”

Shen Yu called Zhao Hongrun in a low voice, but he didn't wake up His Royal Highness, but Mi Jiang woke up.

"......" Because he didn't know what to call him, Shen Yu was stunned, looking a little embarrassed.

However, Mi Jiang was very calm, and said lightly: "Is the army about to leave?" ”

"Uh...... Be. ”

"Go get ready, I'll wake him up."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Be. ”

Shen Yu retreated with interest.

Seeing this, Mi Jiang glanced at Zhao Hongrun, who was still lying on the sleeping bunk, and stretched out his hand to gently pinch his nose.

"Hmm...... Not? ”

Zhao Hongrun, who only felt that he was not breathing well in his sleep, woke up when he found that it was Mi Jiang who woke him up, and he had always been angry when he got up, so he didn't dare to say it.

"Get up, the army is leaving." Mi Jiang said calmly.

"Oh......"

Zhao Hongrun responded, and then touched his chin in confusion.

"Strange, when did you fall asleep last night?"

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Hongrun still didn't have the slightest impression.

On July 18, the "advance army" led by King Hongrun continued to advance towards Chenggao Pass. (To be continued.) )
