Chapter 129: Someone has to choose some things
"Mr. Li, you see, how is this, is it more heroic?"
Ying Zheng stood in front of Li Si, with his hands outstretched, wearing a black robe and a long sword hanging from his waist.
From time to time, he pulled his neckline, his belt was neat and tidy, and he was a handsome young man, but he still frowned, and always felt that he was still indecent.
Li Si sat on his couch, looked at Ying Zheng's appearance wordlessly, and smiled bitterly: "Childe, you don't have to be so formal, right?" β
A war report came from South Korea that Xingyang Chenggao had been captured, and Meng Fu was stationed there, and the trapped army returned to Xianyang to resume his life.
According to King Qin's meaning, there should be another important thing for Gu Nan to do, but this does not prevent her from going back to Xianyang City.
If nothing else, it should be there today.
Gongzizheng, who knew the news early, didn't have the heart to go to class at all, which made Li Si have no choice, he was just a scholar, not a real teacher, but he couldn't control King Qin. Well, even if he is Mr. Big, he may not be able to control it.
"How not?" Ying Zheng didn't find any problems, patted his shirt with satisfaction and said, "Mr. Gu has returned from a great victory, and as a student, I naturally can't fall into style." β
As he spoke, he raised his head, as if he had returned victorious.
Juvenile heart.
Li Si smiled helplessly and shook his head.
Looking down at the bamboo slip in his hand, he picked up the pen and changed a few strokes, and the tip of the pen fell on one place and stopped, frowning.
Then his brows loosened and he circled it.
Well, you can discuss these places with Mr. Gu when the time comes.
Li Si had very few acquaintances in Xianyang City, let alone any friends and confidants, and most of them were by himself when he was studying in the past. But since he was a colleague with Gu Nan, he began to discuss with Gu Nan from time to time.
It's a lot less boring than being alone.
The trappers arrived outside the city after noon.
When Ying Zheng received the news, he and Li Si rode towards the city gate in a hurry, and when they walked up to the city wall, they happened to see the trapped army.
The gate of Xianyang City slowly opened, and the trapped army walked into the city under the leadership of a white-robed leader.
There was no expected return of the army from a great victory, and there were no cheering and envious people on both sides of the street, let alone a roadway to greet them.
Some are just crowds of people who are dodging away, and there is a low and oppressive atmosphere.
When the pedestrians on the road saw the army, they immediately buried their heads and left. Occasionally, a few stopped to watch, and their eyes were only uneasy and afraid.
The thousand-man team was like a ghost army, with a heavy evil aura and a smell of blood that could be smelled from afar.
The spear in his hand, Changge, and the armor stained with dried brown blood, and the face armor carved with the pattern of a fierce beast made them look even more fierce. The same is true of the white-robed general who leads the battle, and the blood stains on the white robe are very dazzling.
The crowd seemed to pay attention to the fear of the people around them, lowered their heads slightly, tried their best to restrain the ferocity of the fight outside, and walked in silence.
But everywhere they go, people still avoid them.
The originally joyful smile on Yingzheng's face, who was standing at the head of the city, gradually put it away.
He put his hands lightly on the edge of the city, and watched the people hide from the plague god.
Looking at the trapped sergeants who didn't dare to walk with their heads up, for fear of scaring others.
looked at the white-robed figure with the collar at the front, which looked a little thin.
The sergeants who returned victorious, but no one praised their merits, and no one admired their prowess.
All I got was the frightened eyes of everyone, and even the treatment of disgust.
When the ordinary army returns, it is still possible to see relatives coming to watch. But the trapping army is different, their families only think that they are still on death row and have died before they have reached the end of their service and received merit and disarmed.
Li Si saw Yingzheng's appearance, just standing beside him, he had seen too many things like this, and most of the things in his chest were helpless.
"It's not fair."
Ying Zheng said, his hand on the city wall, slowly clenched.
"It's not fair." Lees nodded.
"But that's your choice Mr. Gu."
"It's also the choice of the trapped army."

"King, when you return from the battle, the general is already waiting outside."
Ying Zichu stood by the pond in the palace, looking at the slow fish swimming in the water with some bait in their hands.
A eunuch walked in and stood beside him hunched.
"Huh?" Ying Zichu heard that it was Gu Nan, and smiled casually: "Let her in." β
I caught some bait and threw it into the pond.
The fish, which had been slow, suddenly rushed over and scrambled to eat the bait.
The eunuch stepped back.
"Stomp, stomp." Some dull footsteps rang out in the hallway.
Gu Nan wore armor and walked up.
"I've seen the king."
Ying Zichu glanced at Gu Nan, who was wrapped in armor and helmet, shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "My General Gu, there is no need to be so fully dressed in the palace, right?" β
Gu Nan shook his head when he was said, untied the armor on his head, took it off and hugged it aside.
The king smiled.
"Don't." Ying Zichu put the bait aside, leaned against the railing, covered his mouth, and coughed.
"Maybe you scold me in your heart, there is no one else, let's just talk simply, holding the posture of the king, it's very tiring."
Gu Nan pursed his mouth and loosened his stiff shoulders.
also leaned on the railing, looked down at the fish competing for food in the pond, and heard Ying Zichu coughing hard.
"Your cough isn't healed?"
"Say no more, sickness of labor." Yingzi Chu smiled, took the box of bait again, and sprinkled some fish food into the pond.
"If I could, I really didn't want to be the king of Qin."
After speaking, he glanced Gu Nan up and down.
"I said, you don't change your clothes when you come to the palace?"
Gu Nan looked down at his body, the white robe was mixed with reddish-brown bloodstains, there was no way, there was no place to wash clothes in the army, and the lack of stink was already the reason why Gu Nan paid attention to cleanliness and often wiped it with water.
Spread out your hands: "Isn't this what you are in a hurry to summon me to the palace?" β
"And dressed like this, I feel more powerful as a general."
Ying Zichu hooked his mouth and smiled: "Indeed, your own appearance, when you get to the battlefield, you should not even be able to scare the enemy army." β
"Hey Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
was exposed in person, Gu Nan's face darkened a little, and he muttered, "You can't chat like this." β
Yingzi Chu laughed out loud and looked back at Gu Nan.
"Do you know Hangu Pass?"
