"It's okay." Wen Xiang comforted him softly: "It's okay, anyway, I was a wrench for a while before, and now I'm like this again, there's nothing I can't adapt to, you don't have to ...... Don't blame yourself so much. I'm not too bad right now. ”

At least it's better than being scattered.

Wen Xiang didn't dare to say this, for fear that Xu Shen would be even more upset because of it.

"It's my brother's incompetence that made you suffer." Xu Shen was not comforted, and his mood was still very low.

"I didn't suffer." Wen Xiang said dryly, and saw Song Nanzhou leaning against the door, looking at them with his hands on his chest, "That...... Shizi Ye is very good to me. ”

When Song Nanzhou was mentioned, Xu Shen seemed to remember that there were other people in the house, so he hurriedly turned his head and said to Song Nanzhou with a wry smile: "A momentary gaffe made the prince laugh." ”

"Xu Xiang doesn't have to care." Song Nanzhou smiled slightly, as if casually asked: "Last time, Xu Xiang could let her return to her body, and she can do it this time." Xu Xiang doesn't need to be too anxious, she is here with me, and I will take a good look at her. ”

After a pause, he said, "Xu Xiang understands what I mean, right?" ”

How could Xu Shen not hear what he said?

Just as he once warned Song Nanzhou to stay away from her and not to disturb her. Now Song Nanzhou is also telling him to stay away from her, she is now in his hands!

This is one of them, and the other is that he is not a person from the same way, if he always meets, let Emperor Jing know, and provoke Emperor Jing to be suspicious, this is not a good thing.

Xu Shen only felt bitter.

Reason told him that what Song Nanzhou said was right, but emotionally, in the end, she still couldn't tolerate it, she fell into his hands!

Knowing that he wouldn't agree at all, Xu Shen still asked him with difficulty to ask for Wen Xiang, "How can the prince be willing to cut his love and give me this wrench?" ”

Song Nanzhou smiled slightly on his lips, and said lightly: "Xu Xiang also said, this wrench is indeed my beloved thing, I am afraid that I will disappoint Xu Xiang, and I can't give it to you." ”

Wen Xiang couldn't help pouting, she couldn't cut her love, she wasn't his love, it was just an excuse to perfunctory Xu Xiang's little brother.

Xu Shen still refused to give up, and fought again: "The conditions are ...... with the prince of the world."

Wen Xiang listened to their conversation back and forth, and saw that Xu Shen could be regarded as humbly begging Song Nanzhou for her, and her heart was even more sore.

Last time, Song Nanzhou sold her to Xu Shen, and she should have sold her for a good price. But this time she could also see that Song Nanzhou had no intention of selling her at all.

Perhaps, Xu Shen no longer has anything to do with him, so he refuses to trade with him.

It's all her fault!

Why did you take the wrench and return it to Song Nanzhou in the first place? If she didn't have such a high sense of morality, how could she fall into his hands again?

She really interpreted the four words self-inflicted this time.

"Brother." Wen Xiang, who was secretly scolding herself for being stupid, interrupted Xu Shen's words, she tried her best to adjust her emotions to the best state, and said with a smile: "I'm fine now, the prince said that he will look at me and won't let me have an accident, so you can put a hundred and twenty hearts." This is the first time I've come back to the barracks, and I'm curious, the barracks have been bustling in the past two days, so I'm not going with you, I'm going to see the bustle. ”

Song Nanzhou glanced at Wen Xiang meaningfully.

Wen Xiang didn't have time to pay attention to him, and continued: "Brother, don't worry about me, you are the prime minister of the imperial court, go and work with peace of mind." Otherwise, if you don't do well, the best result is to be fired by the big boss, if the big boss is not satisfied with you, then we can't afford the worst result, right? ”

"Don't be sad, what's the deal, isn't it? We are destined, and we will see each other again. Wen Xiang pretended to be grinning and said: "My brother and I can meet and meet in this way, isn't it fate." Brother just go back with confidence, I'll take care of myself. ”

It's great not to be cheeky, so I hugged the thighs of the little brother of the prince, and tried to make her finger life brighter and sunnier.

"She's right." Song Nanzhou waited for her to finish before she said lightly: "Xu Xiang really shouldn't go on like this, Huang Zhongcheng has been staring at Xu Xiang for the past two days, and I heard that the excerpt for impeaching Xu Xiang has been prepared, and many adults in Yushitai have seconded it." Xu Xiang should be cautious. ”

Xu Shen's expression was slightly cold, and he raised his hand to Song Nanzhou and saluted: "Thank you for reminding the prince, it's just a group of clowns jumping off the beam." ”

He paused, put down his hand and looked at Song Nanzhou: "Your Majesty praised the centurion selection competition proposed by the prince, and I was also curious after hearing about it, how did the prince come up with such a wonderful idea?" ”

Song Nanzhou's face was calm, as if he couldn't see the malice brought out by Xu Shen's words, "At that time, His Majesty asked me if I came up with this idea-"

He looked at Wen Xiang and said lightly, "I told him that this is not the method I came up with. When it is convenient, I will bring the person who made the idea for me into the palace to ask for a reward, and His Majesty has already agreed-what, Xu Xiang has never heard of it? ”

When he talked about this in front of her, he basically wanted to mislead her, thinking that he Song Nanzhou had taken the credit on himself - Xu Shen was afraid that he had already guessed that the centurion selection competition was her idea.

Xu Shen also had a calm face: "The prince is really courageous, such a great opportunity, but he is not greedy for merit, Xu is also very admired." It's a pity that the person who came up with the idea will never have the opportunity to face the saint to receive the reward again, so why should the prince ...... Missing such an opportunity? ”

Song Nanzhou smiled casually: "No one will take too much credit, but what is mine is mine." What does Xu Xiang think? ”

The meaning of his words made Xu Shen change color, his eyes became very red in an instant, and the green tendons on his forehead jumped suddenly.

Wen Xiang was startled.

She could hear that the two men were talking in a hurry, as if they were playing some kind of trick, but she wasn't sure if her guess was right.

Seeing that Xu Shen was angry at this time, Wen Xiang hurriedly spoke: "What you all said is very reasonable, but these are not important. The important thing is tomorrow's game, brother, can you come and watch the game? ”

When she interrupted, she spoke quickly and urgently, and the worry in her tone could be heard by even a fool.

Xu Shen endured it in the end, and looked at Wen Xiang gently, "I'm afraid I can't come here, I have a lot of things in front of me, and I may be busy these days." If you like to watch the excitement, then watch it well, and tell your brother about it when the time comes. ”

Wen Xiang nodded busily: "Well, I'll come to see me when you're free, and I'll tell you." ”

Because Song Nanzhou was always on the side, Xu Shen didn't stay long and left quickly.

Before leaving, he told Wen Xiang to pay attention to safety, there are men everywhere...... But he couldn't go on with just one sentence, probably he himself felt that Wen Xiang, who was a wrench, was unlikely to encounter anything strange or perverted.

……

Waiting for Xu Shen to leave, Wen Xiang was listless for a while, and suddenly remembered that he forgot to ask him something, and couldn't help but sigh in annoyance.

"So reluctant?" Song Nanzhou glanced at her coldly.

"I forgot to ask him, has Mother Yu's Diao slave been punished?" The enemy who caused her to become a finger wrench again, she must be punished as she deserves in order to relieve the evil anger in her heart!

Listening to her angry tone, Song Nanzhou smiled faintly: "On the day of your accident, King Qing personally sent Yu's mother and the slave who smashed you to Xu Xiang's mansion. ”

Wen Xiang's anger decreased slightly, and she became curious again: "What happened to Little Brother Xu Xiang?" ”

Song Nanzhou paused as he sorted out the documents on the table, and glanced at her with a smile: "You really want to know?" ”

Wen Xiang rolled her eyes: "You also want to sell this kind of thing?" ”

Song Nanzhou stopped selling Guanzi, and said very simply: "He asked people to take good care of those two people, serve them with good food and drink every day, and invite them with good medical treatment." ”

Wen Xiang was surprised: "What did he do to them?" ”

Song Nanzhou only said one word, "Chop." ”

Wen Xiang was stunned: "A thousand cuts? ”

Song Nanzhou laughed when he heard her gasp, "That's right, a thousand cuts." ”

In Wen Xiang's stunned effort, he dropped another heavy bomb: "Xu Xiang refuses to fake the hands of others, and wants to avenge you in person, do you feel gratified?" ”

Wen Xiang's scalp was even more numb, and she couldn't imagine the picture of Xu Shen, who was so gentle and elegant, personally performing torture.

"I can't imagine that your little brother Xu Xiang can do such a thing?" Song Nanzhou saw that she was silent for a long time, and asked with a smile.

Wen Xiang subconsciously replied: "I can't imagine it." ”

The meaning in Song Nanzhou's eyes became even stronger: "There are still a lot of things you can't think of, and this time I should be adapted." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Wen Xiang finally sensed that he had something to say.

What does it mean to adapt this time? Could it be that there are more unimaginable things waiting for her in the future?

He was sure that little brother Xu Xiang would do something even more terrible?

However, no matter how she asked, Song Nanzhou's pass was sold, and he refused to say anything.

Wen Xiang gritted his teeth, but he still couldn't do anything.

But she thought of one more thing, and cried out: "Oops, I forgot to promise Princess Qing to find someone to help her." ”

After saying this, he asked Song Nanzhou angrily, "How is Princess Qing in the past two days, what happened that day frightened her, right?" ”

Her concern is unpretentious, and she is frank and undeniably tempted and ridiculed.

Song Nanzhou paused for a moment before saying lightly: "She has put the Qingwang Mansion in order - she also personally bought Yu's mother's two daughters and a few Diao slaves." The lady of the Qu family who came to make trouble was blasted out of the door by her in public, and ordered that from now on, the Qu family was not allowed to enter the door of the Qingwang Mansion again. ”

Wen Xiang was surprised and relieved to hear this: "Is this really her doing?" I thought it would take at least a while to see the results, but I didn't expect ......"

Is this a sudden enlightenment?

"I heard that it is to avenge you." Song Nanzhou curled his fingers and knocked on the tabletop, and the force was almost bounced up on the warm incense on the table, "Little goblin, do you really have any magic skills, how can you make everyone turn to you in a short period of time?" ”

Xu Shen didn't say anything, it can be said that it was because of Xu Wenxiang's empathy for her.

But Tang Shaozong is like this, Princess Qing is like this, and Song Xuan is also like this, it seems that as long as people who have been in contact with her will inevitably be attracted to her.

Wen Xiang smiled: "This is called charm, which means that I am a very attractive person hahaha." However, not everyone will look towards me, like you, you are not towards me. ”

Song Nanzhou's eyes flashed slightly, and he snorted again as if he was disdainful: "It shows that your charm is not enough." ”

Wen Xiang agreed, "It is Princess Qing that can attract you, and my charm can't attract you." ”

Song Nanzhou's eyes were quiet, and he said lightly: "If you forget the consequences of talking nonsense, you can't have a long memory?" ”

Wen Xiang was suffocated, thinking of the scene of being choked.

She decided to keep her mouth shut.

"You don't have to worry about helping her find someone." Song Nanzhou brought the topic up again.

Seeing that he said this and didn't say anything, Wen Xiang, who was hung with an appetite, couldn't help but grind her teeth and asked, "What, did you arrange it for her?" ”

Song Nanzhou looked at her lightly: "She has her husband to share her worries." ”

Seeing that his expression seemed to be safe, Wen Xiang understood in seconds, this is jealousy!

The vinegar jar is not easy to mess with, and Wen Xiang decided to keep her mouth shut again.

……

The centurion selection competition began in full swing in Wen Xiang's anticipation.

The high ring has already been set up on the school field.

In the audience at the front of the ring, in the first row sat Mu Shizhong, who had not recovered from a leg injury and looked depressed, and Zhang Gonggong, a confidant eunuch beside Emperor Jing.

Hearing that it was Emperor Jing's henchman eunuch, Wen Xiang also looked at him twice, white and chubby, with a medium build, and a fat face that was a little fairer than ordinary people, with a smile on his face all the time, and said a few words to Mu Shizhong beside him from time to time.

It looks no different from ordinary people, and is even more amiable than ordinary people. But Wen Xiang didn't dare to underestimate him - can he become the first confidant by the emperor's side, can he be a simple and amiable person?

Under the ring, all the soldiers of the Wuxiang battalion arrived, and at a glance, it was really noisy gongs and drums, colorful flags fluttering, and crowds of people, and the scene was very spectacular.

As soon as the time came, Song Nanzhou, who was dressed in a neat short shirt, jumped into the ring, without any nonsense, and directly announced the rules of this competition.

"The contest is divided into three days, the first day of the preliminary round, also known as the knockout round, the contestants draw the opponent by drawing lots. The method of drawing lots is on-site lottery, in line with the principle of absolute fairness and openness, whoever is drawn is whom. ”

This was all the idea that the goblin gave him, and he listened to it well, so he adopted it all.

He swept down the stage, and the soldiers who were still humming and talking immediately fell silent.

Song Nanzhou continued expressionlessly: "The sword has no eyes, so it's up to the point." Alright, let's get started. ”

Wen Xiangqi, who was put on Song Nanzhou's thumb, looked at the ring with great interest, and with the sound of gongs and drums, the first group of contestants was already in place.

These are two soldiers of about the same height and size, one is good at broadsword and the other is good at spear.

As soon as they got on the field, the two of them fought inextricably, and they both used their own life skills, one chop, chop, chop, cut, one block, piercing, stabbing, and pointing. Wen Xiang was dazzled and nervous.

There was also a cheer from below.

Song Nanzhou was sitting next to Father-in-law Zhang, Father-in-law Zhang's eyes looked at the stage, and he looked very nervous: "Okay!" ”

"This is the first couple, and it's as wonderful as that." Gonggong Zhang didn't seem to expect it at all, turned his head and said to Song Nanzhou with a smile: "In this way, our Wuxiang battalion is no worse than other battalions." ”

"Father-in-law praises." Song Nanzhou looked at Mu Shizhong, whose eyes also lit up suddenly, "These two people on the stage were personally trained by General Mu. The people trained by General Mu are naturally not bad. ”

Mu Shizhong didn't like Song Nanzhou anymore, and when he heard what he said, he also gave him a good look: "The prince is polite, these two children have good roots, they have been with me for a few years, and now they look like them." ”

The soldiers he trained by himself performed well, and he was naturally and honored.

Although he still hasn't figured it out, why did Song Nanzhou invite him to be a judge?

However, when he was able to come back and see the soldiers he trained in the past, Mu Shizhong still endured his dislike for Song Nanzhou, and rushed over with crutches with injuries.

It's also about helping them.

Song Nanzhou said lightly: "More than 80 of the soldiers who participated in the competition this time were carefully trained by General Mu in the past, and today General Mu will take this as a test, and he can also guide them afterwards." ”

Hearing Song Nanzhou's words, Mu Shizhong couldn't help but glance at him again, this glance was less preconceived disgust, more scrutiny and evaluation, and after a while, he said lightly: "The prince seems to be a little different." ”

It's still an eyesore, but it doesn't seem to be as much of an eyesore as it used to be.

He originally thought that this was a farce planned by Song Nanzhou, but now it seems that he really has the heart to rectify the military affairs of the Wuxiang battalion?

Song Nanzhou hooked his lips and his eyes fell on the stands, "People always change." ”

After saying this, they never spoke again.

It was Gonggong Zhang, looking at Mu Shizhong on the left, and Song Nanzhou on the right, at the end, he shook the dust and smiled.

……

This lively flourishing lasted until the sun went down in the evening, and one hundred and eight people, half of them were eliminated, and fifty-four people were promoted.

What surprised Wen Xiang a little was that among the promoted personnel, there were Lin San, the leader of the squirrel, and Tang Shaozong, the rooster brother.

Lin San's promotion is normal, his skills are not bad, and he knocked out his opponent in less than five minutes after playing, not only Wen Xiang expressed surprise, but everyone in the stands was very surprised. Even that father-in-law Zhang couldn't close his mouth a little, "I didn't expect that Lin Sangongzi would have such good skills." ”

Song Nanzhou, the only one who didn't show surprise, smiled: "Lin San has been taught by a martial arts master since he was a child, and later his martial arts master was old and returned to his hometown to retire, and Lin San was lazy to practice martial arts again." But the foundation of playing small is still there, and there have been many fights and incidents in those years, and these two times are just enough to see. ”

Gonggong Zhang smiled and said: "I think Lin Sangongzi is very powerful, and when I talk back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will be surprised-if Lin Sangongzi really wins the ranking, this centurion will ......."

"Of course he's the one."

"That's as it should be." Father-in-law Zhang said with a smile.

Lin San's promotion surprised everyone, and Tang Shaozong's promotion was really unthinkable.

Tang Shaozong told Wen Xiang that he was the best at hiding and dodging, and Wen Xiang didn't feel much at that time, but at this time, she witnessed Tang Shaozong's dodging kung fu performed in the ring, and she really ...... Let her petrify for a long time.

Not only her, but it is estimated that everyone under the stands was messy at that time.

saw Tang Shaozong come to the stage, and after saluting the opponent, he didn't move, and he had a masterful demeanor of "if the enemy doesn't move, I won't move".

His opponent waited and saw that he did not move, so he had to move first.

As soon as the poor child moved, Tang Shaozong also moved.

Then, a cat-and-mouse scene was staged in the ring - the child chased, and Tang Shaozong hid.

On the wide ring with two rows of weapon racks, Tang Shaozong was stunned to escape the labyrinth-like effect. You chased me and hid for a whole hour, and finally ended with the poor child who was angry and angry, and was kicked out of the ring by Tang Shaozong.

Tang Shaozong happily cheered and rolled on it, and there was a neat cheer below.

The kid who was kicked down remained in a state of bewilderment for a long time, probably he never dreamed that he would meet such an opponent - Wen Xiang guessed that his heart must have collapsed.

The event may be exciting or wonderful, in short, the preliminary round at the beginning of this is a successful conclusion.

Song Nanzhou politely sent Mu Shizhong and Gonggong Zhang away, and Gonggong Zhang politely said: "General Mu is not in good health, let's go first." ”

Mu Shizhong stopped and glanced at Song Nanzhou deeply, "You guarantee that this game is fair and just?" ”

Song Nanzhou curled his lips: "Why did General Mu ask me?" I invite you to watch the game, if it violates the principle of fairness, openness and justice that I said before, General Mu can go to me in front of me. ”

Although Mu Shizhong has left the Wuxiang Battalion, for so many years, even if there are unsuccessful gentlemen in the Wuxiang Battalion, it has still become his concern. Song Nanzhou knew this, so he invited him to come.

The soldiers from the poor family respected Mu Shizhong, and Song Nanzhou wanted to subdue them with his own strength in a short period of time, not to mention the hard work, it might be useless at all. Therefore, he immediately thought of taking the shortcut of Mu Shizhong, and if he wanted Mu Shizhong to help him, he had to impress him.

When Mu Shizhong saw the familiar faces he had brought, how could he not be excited, especially when they looked at him expectantly, hoping that he could come back and give them another hope, Mu Shizhong was really touched.

He originally thought that today's incident was the fun that Song Nanzhou's group of gentlemen came up with out of boredom, but after watching that game, he realized that he might really want to do something.

He knew in his heart the ability of the people he brought out, saying that he had selected ten people, except for Lin San's unexpected black horse that might be killed, the other nine must have been all people he brought out. They can have such an opportunity, how can Mu Shizhong not be happy for them?

But while he was happy, he was worried about whether the event would be shady-

Wen Xiang secretly thought that this former commander was a very responsible and good person.

After Song Nanzhou's words, Mu Shizhong, a swarthy man, finally had a smile on his face: "I will keep an eye on you!" ”

After Mu Shizhong left first, Song Nanzhou looked at Gonggong Zhang with a smile.

Wen Xiang thought that he must be very familiar with this father-in-law, and sure enough, he heard Song Nanzhou ask him with an extremely casual smile, "What does my father-in-law think of today's game?" Can you make a difference in front of the emperor's uncle? ”

"Yes, yes." The father-in-law was like laughing Maitreya, "When the slave and maid return to the palace, they will definitely tell Your Majesty about it." ”

"Then thank my father-in-law for speaking well for me in front of the imperial uncle." Song Nanzhou immediately had to inch in.

Gonggong Zhang was not annoyed, he responded with a smile, but motioned Song Nanzhou to approach him with his eyes, and when Song Nanzhou approached, Wen Xiang heard this laughing Maitreya quickly say a word.

"Concubine Yi, I'm afraid it's not good."

Wen Xiang listened to such a clueless sentence, and naturally understood what it meant, but found that Song Nanzhou, whose dark color remained unchanged, his eyes sank in an instant.
