Chapter 41: The Tiger is Calming People's Hearts
"Cheng Wu is your personal soldier, you can take it away! Cheng Mu and Zhenyue must stay! The teacup in Hongfu's hand was held steadily, but the gesture of holding the cup looked like the next moment, the cup would fly out at any time.
"There is no such reason! People are intimate and affectionate as a family, how can there be a reason to separate fathers and sons. No, no, absolutely not! Cheng Zhijie only had Zhen Yue who was lying at Cheng Mu's feet and staring at him lazily, where could he still see the red breeze that was already on the verge of eruption.
The red phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously, and sneered: "Heh, I also came out of the west when the sun hit the west, so you are so enthusiastic." It turns out that the dog can't change the of eating, Cheng Biting Jin or Cheng Biting Jin, he will always come out halfway to muddy the waters, and your name of Zhijie has been changed in vain! I don't bother to pay attention to you! Putting the teacup on a few cases, the red breeze rose up with his sleeves, his eyes swept to Su Mei's family, and said softly: "You have also seen all kinds of yesterday." If you expect him to bring Luo Yun back, pack up his things and leave, I won't stop you. But in front of me, Luo Yun could call me an aunt yesterday, and I, who is an aunt, will not let go! How to choose, please feel free! ”
After Hongfu finished speaking, he turned around and walked to the back house, but he stopped by the screen where the tiger went down the mountain, and said loudly without looking back: "The husband is fighting outside, and it is inconvenient for the Weiguo Mansion to stay guests, red clothes, send off guests!" ”
"No." Hongyi nodded in response, his eyes swept over everyone, walked straight to Cheng Zhijie, and stretched out his hand to send off the guest: "Lu Guogong, please!" ”
Cheng Zhijie was stunned, he didn't expect that Hongfu was so hot today, and his habitual tricks didn't take the call, so he didn't even have a chance to say soft words and left. This can't be blamed on him, Li Jing is old and raises a tiger to train obedient like a dog, which shows his military might. Everyone is a military general, although the military is slightly worse, but their own force is not worse than Li Jing, right? What's more, Li Jing is old and injured now...... The tiger was raised by the Duke of Lu, but ...... If it was so easy to train, His Majesty would not take a dog with him when he went out hunting!
Alas, it's only strange that Zhenyue is too dazzling!
And it's so humane!
And its owner is the Cheng Mu who he is very optimistic about!
And Cheng Mu is Cheng Wu's son!
The most important thing is that they all have the surname Cheng! He knows the Cheng of the festival!
Isn't this what came to your door! How capable he is not to look at! If he doesn't grab it quickly, will he still bite the gold!
"Lu Guogong! The Weiguo Mansion is inconvenient to entertain guests, please go back! "Hongyi doesn't care that in front of him is the general of the dynasty, Lu Guogong. It turns out that I haven't seen it in Zhanlu Building! It's just that since he left there, it's no longer the time for these nobles to decide their fate with a word!
The cold face of the red clothes expressed the resoluteness of her attitude everywhere, but I don't know if her confidence comes from the support of the red whisk or from the Yue Nu sword behind her. Cheng Zhijie finally came back to his senses, and his mind was still spinning around how to fool Cheng Wu's family away, and he dealt with it casually: "Let's go, what are you urging, didn't your wife still say that you should pack up your things?" When his eyes fell on the red clothes in front of him, Cheng Zhijie was stunned, and suddenly remembered the name of the red whisk just now: "Red clothes!" Are you the red coat of Zhan Lu Lou? ”
The red-clothed eyes looked out of the door, there was no wave on his face, and he didn't recognize the panic at all, and he still repeated in a firm voice: "The Weiguo Mansion is inconvenient to entertain guests, Lu Guogong, please go back!" ”
Cheng Zhijie looked the red clothes up and down, rubbed his beard, unexpectedly drooped his head, sat down cross-legged again, and said in a sullen voice: "My sister-in-law is angry for a while, how can I just leave." If I don't want to have Lu Guogong's face anymore, Brother Li will have to blame me when he comes back. No, I'll have to wait here, and when my sister-in-law is angry, I'll make amends to her. ”
The red-clothed String Girl Nier even took Cheng Wu's family of three and looked at Cheng Zhijie who said these words shamelessly. Cheng Zhijie lowered his head and drank tea indifferently, and put the cup in front of Jenier and asked her to add tea.
"You!" The red clothes pointed at Cheng Zhijie and didn't know what to do, he couldn't really do it, Cheng Zhijie's majestic body sat there, and he played it, even His Majesty the Emperor couldn't easily get rid of him. "Humph! Then sit here! Let's go! The red clothes stopped Huanier, who was still honestly trying to pour tea for Cheng Zhijie, said hello, turned around and left, and didn't go to see Cheng Wu's family. The three girls went back to the back house. Walking at the end, he glanced back and caught the complicated eyes of Cheng Zhijie chasing after him. Turning his eyes, looking back at the back of the red clothes, he figured out the key in an instant, smiled playfully, turned to the dazed Su Mei and said, "Aunt Mei, you haven't had breakfast yet." Nizi prepared some lotus seed porridge in the flower hall, and Aunt Mei went to use some together. ”
Su Mei didn't know why, but she didn't want to go to the Lu Guo Mansion, the Yang family she was born in is now the Wei Guo Mansion, and the red whisk is an old acquaintance, of course she is more willing to get close to and believe in the red whisk. Su Mei got up and said to Cheng Wu, "You accompany General Cheng to sit here, and I'll come back later." After speaking, he bowed to Cheng Zhijie and went to the back house.
Cheng Zhijie pretended to smile kindly and nodded. When only Cheng Wu's father and son were left in the hall, Cheng Zhijie immediately jumped up from the mat and came to Zhenyue's Zhile. That obscene look blocked what Cheng Wu wanted to say. Cheng Mu didn't know what to say, so he could only keep appeasing Zhenyue, who was baring his teeth at Cheng Zhijie.
Why didn't Cheng Zhijie leave? There are so many people in the Weiguo Mansion, and there are three daughters in red clothes standing in the hall, and the red breeze only names the red clothes to send off the guests, which is to tell Cheng Zhijie that the real key person is here. With the time of last night, if the cause of Li Luoyun's incident has not been clarified, then Cheng Zhijie, the general, will be in vain. Li Luoyun ran to the yamen to surrender in pain, and it wasn't for that red coat that he caused so much trouble! What if he tied Cheng Wu's father and son back? This family is here for Li Luoyun, and when Li Luoyun comes back, who else can he retain? No matter how good the tiger is...... Nor his.
Wait, Tiger. Isn't Li Luoyun's confidence in making trouble because he said that he raised a tiger? Is this the one in front of you?
"Hehe, this Zhenyue...... It's called Zhenyue, right? What a name, domineering! Hehehehe, is it the one who helped you beat those stupid people of the Wei family in Zhanlu Building? Cheng Zhijie stretched out his hand and wanted to touch Zhenyue's head like Cheng Mu, but Zhenyue didn't give face, and walked over with the black hand wide open. Fortunately, Cheng Zhijie's eyes were quick, and he immediately retracted his hand and jumped back.
Cheng Mu hurriedly covered Zhenyue's mouth, and hurriedly wrenched his chin to close it. Although he complained in his heart, he couldn't really say it to his father's former father-in-law. Cheng Wu helped explain on the side: "It wasn't Zhan Lulou who beat people, Zhenyue just came the day before yesterday." It was Xiao Yu who had been by Yun'er's side all the time. ”
"Xiao Yu? Is this the name of a tiger? Cheng Zhijie frowned and preconceived disdain for the name: "This is a cat name, and my daughter's cat doesn't have such a name." Cheng Zhijie turned his head and asked Cheng Wu with a serious face: "Who is more powerful, his Xiaoyou or our Zhenyue?" ”
"This ......" Cheng Wu was also speechless to his own general, how did it become our family? And who is powerful Xiao You and Zhenyue, do you still need to ask this question?
"What's wrong? Although they are all their own children, they have to have a high and low length. Just from the name, it can be seen that our Zhenyue is stronger, right? Cheng Zhijie looked down and saw that he was fat and strong, his coat was shiny, and the royal tattoo on his forehead was majestic and majestic, and his tiger eyes were domineering and exposed. nodded appreciatively and said, "I've seen a lot of tigers, Zhenyue is the most powerful I've ever seen, that little ...... This name can't be a mother, right? ”
Cheng Wu was in a cold sweat, and Cheng Mu said in a low voice: "Zhenyue is a female tiger, and Xiaoyou is a male tiger." They are siblings. ”
"Uh...... Is this a tigress? Cheng Zhijie pointed at Zhenyue in disbelief and asked, and the hand that poked over provoked Zhenyue to roar.
Cheng Mu helplessly stood in front of Zhenyue, nodded, thought about it and said: "Zhenyue beat Mrs. Li's big tiger ......" Cheng Mu cautiously looked at the movement in the back hall, lowered his voice and said: "Zhenyue won very easily. ”
Cheng Zhijie nodded with satisfaction, and glanced at the back house of the Weiguo Mansion proudly. Some images of the future begin to appear in my mind, and the corners of my mouth are raised to reveal a smug smile. As a result, I only heard Cheng Mu continue: "I haven't seen Xiao You make a move...... However, on the day Xiao You came to the Weiguo Mansion, the big tiger didn't scream......"
"Uh......" Cheng Zhijie heard the meaning of Cheng Mu's words, but this is too much, right? It is said that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and Li Jing's tiger will not be scared down without fighting, right? "Hahaha, haha, haha......" Cheng Zhijie laughed awkwardly for a while, and he didn't know what he was laughing at. He stroked his beard and sat back down.
was speechless for a while, and the residual tea in Cheng Zhijie's cup was cold. Zhenyue got up boredly, rubbed Cheng Mu and then jumped out of the main hall. Cheng Zhijie looked at the back hall, there was no one there, and the subordinates of the Weiguo Mansion were all hiding and not showing up. Cheng Zhijie pondered for a while and said to Cheng Wu: "Baxia camp...... That is, the people of the Li family are also here? I've also dealt with the people in the Baxia camp at the beginning, can Xiao Wu ask them to come out and meet them? ”
Cheng Wu thought about it, nodded in response, and instructed Cheng Mudao: "Mu'er, you go and invite the old lady and the fourth brother to come over." ”
"Okay, I'll go and see if the fourth uncle is up." Cheng Mu didn't want to sit here stiffly for a long time, so he quickly got up and went.
Cheng Zhijie looked at Cheng Wu and suddenly remembered something, and asked curiously: "Counting the time when you went out of the camp and went out of the mountain, you have already gone to Lijiazhai, right?" Why didn't you follow them when they went down to fight? ”
"When the Women's Army attacked Zhouzhi County, I followed Brother Li. It's just that when Brother Li wanted to go down the mountain to help the handsome woman, Yun'er and Mu'er were still young, and the eldest brother asked me to stay and take care of the family. ”
"That'...... Are the Li family really so capable of fighting? Or are all those who can fight out of the mountains? ”
Cheng Wu hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Cheng Zhijie looked at him embarrassed, and asked instead: "You are also a fierce general under my command, how many can you rank in Lijiazhai?" ”
"Well, there is no ranking in Lijiazhai. In Brother Li's generation, the most powerful ones are the eldest brother and the fourth brother, they are brothers. The second brother and the third brother are a little closer. ”
"Li Zhenping, Li Zhenan's brothers, have dealt with each other." Cheng Zhizhi nodded and asked curiously, "How do you compare with them?" ”
Cheng Wu saw sweat on his forehead, and he slandered his own general in his heart for what questions he asked today. He lowered his head and said, "Back then, several brothers fought wolves alone in the back mountain. I've seen my eldest brother kill a bear shirtless......"
Cheng Zhijie was dumbfounded, thinking to himself who came out of Li Jiazhai. Right now, Li Luoyun looks normal...... Well, he doesn't even want to fight a dog. But he can tame tigers......
"General."
"Huh?"
"How is Yun'er doing now?"
"Your Majesty sent him to the West Inner Garden as a handyman. Don't worry, I can see that His Majesty has no intention of harming him, but he hasn't figured out what to do with him yet. There are no one living in Nishienien either. Being a handyman is a little tired at most, by the way, there are still tigers in the West Inner Garden, doesn't that kid know how to tame tigers, maybe he will take the opportunity to train those two tigers, and His Majesty will let him go as soon as he is happy. Cheng Zhijie comforted casually, and he didn't believe what he said.
Cheng Wu hesitated and said, "Zhenyue and Xiaoyou were picked up by Yun'er from the dead tigress's den and raised day by day. Mu'er has been taking care of them since childhood, and the two little tigers are quite humane, so they listen to them like this. Yun'er, he doesn't know how to tame a tiger. ”
Cheng Zhijie frowned and asked, "Picked it up and raised it?" Not specifically trained? But this is too human, right? It's not like I've never seen Li Jing's big tiger. ”
"If the general has seen Xiao You, he may understand. Xiao Yu is a natural alien and a black tiger. ”
"Black Tiger? Black? ”
Cheng Wu nodded, and continued without being shocked: "Moreover, I'm afraid that Xiao You is by Yun'er's side now. The two of them never left each other. ”
Cheng Zhijie's eyes bulged: "That's the palace!" ”
Cheng Wu lowered his head: "Chang'an City, Xiaoyou comes and goes freely." On the day of the accident in Zhan Lulou, Yun'er didn't take Xiao You with her, but it still appeared there silently. In the Chang'an County Prison, someone wanted to harm Yun'er, but he was inexplicably knocked out and thrown outside the prison. And that afternoon, Xiao Yu was separated from us outside the city. ”
Cheng Zhijie still couldn't believe it: "The matter of the prison hasn't been investigated yet, maybe someone on the other side interfered." ”
Cheng Wu looked up at his general, and said slowly: "The general knows why the old lady of the Li family and us are staying in the Weiguo Mansion safely, even if Yun'er is trapped in the palace and has no news, he is not anxious to run around like yesterday to beg for help." ”
Cheng Zhijie frowned and looked at Cheng Wu waiting for him to solve his doubts, only to hear Cheng Wu sigh and say, "Mrs. Li came back to us yesterday and told us a piece of news that made us feel at ease." ”
"What's the news? She left the palace earlier than me yesterday, so does she know more than me? ”
"Mrs. Li told us that she saw Yun'er in the prisoner's car outside the palace, and at that time, Yun'er had already taken back the medicine gourd that had been handed over to her for safekeeping...... And that gourd was the ...... that Mu'er hung around Xiao You's neck when we were outside the city" Cheng Wu paused to let Cheng Zhijie understand what he said, and then said: "In the city and outside the city, the county government can't stop that tiger at all. It stayed by Yun'er's side, but no one noticed its shadow. If Yun'er is really in danger in the palace, I'm afraid the general will have to bring troops into the palace. ”
Cheng Zhijie stared at Cheng Wu with round eyes, and the words that came out of his mouth were faintly cold: "It's just a tiger, Xiao Wu, are you scaring me?" ”
"Xiao Wu is right, if he didn't know that Xiao You had returned to Yun'er. Your Majesty detained the young patriarch of my Li family for no reason, and the old man had to break open the palace door and ask the emperor for clarification! ”
Cheng Zhijie suddenly turned his head to follow the prestige, only to see Li Guangxiong's white hair in front, Li Zhen'an in front of him, and Cheng Mu and another heroic young man following behind. Cheng Zhijie looked the old man who spoke wildly up and down, and his mind gradually overlapped with the old impression, and responded with a smile: "After many years of seclusion, the second master of the Baxia camp is still so domineering!" The arrogance has not diminished back then. ”
Li Guangxiong squinted his eyes and swept Cheng Zhijie up and down with his fists and said, "General Cheng, it's been a long time!" ”
"Heh, I haven't met again, and I still miss you very much!" Cheng Zhijie also returned the salute with his fists, but unconsciously the words you came and went with the smell of gunpowder.
"The general is here to settle old scores? My eldest brother is not here, what is the number of ways I follow! The general drew the line! Li Zhen'an just heard Cheng Mu complain a few words, Cheng Zhijie was worried about Zhenyue or something as soon as he came, and ran away from Mrs. Li angrily, thinking that Cheng Zhijie was not good, so naturally he didn't have a good face to give him, and every word implied sword light.
The sweat on Cheng Wu's head couldn't be done, how could he just meet here, and the two sides hurriedly intervened between the two parties as if they were about to fight: "Where did the fourth brother say, the general was still pleading for Yun'er in front of the emperor yesterday, and today I also came to see if there was anything that could help Mrs. Li, where is the old account!" General, don't be angry, my fourth brother has such a temper. ”
"Hmph, I've seen the temper of the fourth child in the camp back then, and I still need to say it!" Cheng Zhijie pushed Cheng Wu away with a wave of his hand, and walked in front of Li Guangxiong angrily. Although Li Guangxiong is old, his body has never been stiff, his back is straight and Cheng Zhijie looks at each other, and he does not let go.
"What the deputy commander meant just now, could it be that if His Majesty disposes of Li Luoyun, you will have to go out of the mountain again, and more than 100 people from your district will still enter the palace to ask for people? Even if Li Zhenping is still there, I'm afraid he won't dare to fight this kind of battle, right? ”
"Heh, this Chang'an City didn't come in first back then! What about rushing to the palace gate. Does General Cheng think that there is only one Li Zhenping in my Li family! ”
"Heh, the hero doesn't mention the courage of the year. Did the second master still mention the halberd? I really don't believe you, Lao Cheng, Li Jiazhai is Li Zhenping! ”
Li Guangxiong took a step forward and his forehead almost touched Cheng Zhijie's forehead, his eyes were facing each other, the fire was shining, and the sword and sword shadow were not separated! "I'm not afraid to tell General Cheng that when the old man goes down the mountain, Li Jiazhai is already waiting for him! If there is a chance for Yun'er! Look at whether my Li Jiazhai can collapse a gate of Taiji Palace! ”
Cheng Zhijie glared at Li Guangxiong angrily, the two sides refused to give in to each other, the sword light and sword shadow in his eyes, Li Zhenan's muscles rose, and Cheng Zhijie clenched his fists. Cheng Wu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, feeling that the two sides were going to fight in the next moment.
"Cheng Zhijie, why haven't you left yet!" The sharp voice swept away the anger between the two sides, and several big men turned their heads to look. I saw the red breeze not knowing when to go and return, standing in front of the hall, dressed in a red dress, a golden hairpin jade screen, a pendant hanging from the waist, a beautiful and moving palace lady! It's just that he has a three-foot horizontal knife in his hand.
The sword is shining, and it is already out of its sheath.
The red whisk horizontal knife was in front, and a pair of phoenix eyes squinted at Cheng Zhijie: "What's the matter?" Want to do it in my Patriotic Mansion? ”
Cheng Zhijie instantly retracted his momentum in the face of the red breeze, lowered his head and smiled and said, "What is Mrs. Sister-in-law doing, is Lao Cheng such a person who doesn't know how to measure?" How could you run to your mansion and fight with people. We just reinvented the old days! ”
"Huh, reminiscence, huh? Don't leave after the narrative! Don't wait for me to open the middle door and send you out! When the time comes, your Lu Guogong's face will not look good! "Where will Hongfu eat Cheng Zhijie's set, so he can't help but open his mouth to pick people.
Cheng Zhijie's eyes rolled, and he got off the donkey and stopped playing scoundrel: "Then I'll go back today first, and come back another day to make amends to my sister-in-law!" Cheng Zhijie patted Cheng Wu's shoulder to signal him to stay at ease, walked out of the hall, and when he passed by Hongfu's side, he bowed and saluted, and Hongfu didn't return the salute, but when Cheng Zhijie got up, he pretended to speak casually and said: "I'm the general of the garrison, and the matter in the project, my sister-in-law asked me directly, it's not better than interviewing the commanders of Yulin and the guard." ”
Hongfu glanced at Cheng Zhijie: "Who said that I was going to visit those city gate guards." At this time, I didn't want those people in the family to be guilty of my husband's serial generals. If Yushi stains my husband, I can't afford to be accused of premeditated rebellion. Auntie, I am not feeling well, and I want to ask Sun Daochang to take a look at me, can't I? ”
Cheng Zhijie didn't expect Hongfu to have such an answer, and was stunned for a moment and asked, "Which Sun Daochang?" ”
"Sun Simiao, Sun Daochang, what's the matter, you want to see a doctor?"
"How can I be sick, I just heard that last night Wei Guifei sent someone to the West Inner Garden to hold a torch to look for medicinal materials, and I don't know if I am sick, so urgent."
Cheng Zhijie had something to say, he flicked his wrist lightly and shook a knife flower, his eyes glanced at the people of the Li family in the house, and said softly to Cheng Zhijie: "What's the matter, pretending to be crazy and stupid early in the morning, have you tried it clearly?" ”
Cheng Zhijie smiled and replied, "The Li family's baby kid can still understand, why is Your Majesty so nervous about that kid?" ”
"You want to know? If you are not afraid of getting more and more trouble, come with me to visit Sun Daochang! After speaking, Hongfu threw the horizontal knife to Cheng Zhijie, turned around and walked out of the house.
