The cold wind howled, sweeping through the entire Suiyang City.

In the middle of winter, the weather is getting colder and colder. Kong Sheng estimated that the temperature had reached more than ten degrees below zero, so low and cold, poor the soldiers guarding the city on the city gate, especially the soldiers on duty at night, would definitely be frozen into popsicles if they didn't stamping their feet back and forth and holding the brazier to roast the fire.

The food was very poor, and there was not enough to eat, and the defenders of Suiyang were struggling in this harsh and difficult environment, waiting for the time to come and run, waiting for the spring flowers to bloom.

In fact, not to mention the soldiers guarding the city outside, even the officials in the city, such as Zhang Xun, were also trembling in the airtight room with braziers, wrapped in heavy cotton clothes.

With this low temperature, what can a brazier do?

Kong Sheng was dancing his sword in the wind in the courtyard, and he couldn't stand up to this kind of cold air. If it weren't for the fact that time didn't allow, he would have to build a kang in the house to keep warm, he really couldn't understand why the Tang Dynasty society was so prosperous and civilized, but he didn't invent a better way to heat in winter, this kind of brazier heating method is really stupid, and it is easy to be poisoned by gas.

Kong Sheng resolutely rejected placing a brazier in his bedroom, he didn't want to lose his life in his sleep and travel to another dynasty or time and space. Mu Changfeng and the others didn't listen to the hard advice, so they had to let Kong Sheng go.

Wu Xianwu hurriedly walked in with his fur wrapped in his fur and said loudly: "Childe, that Li Ding is here." ”

The broken sword in Kong Sheng's hand suddenly broke through the air, and he said lightly: "Who?" Is it the Li Ding who joined forces with Zhang Kui to besiege me that day? ”

"That's the man." Wu Xiandao.

Kong Sheng frowned: "What is he doing here?" ”

"I don't know." Wu Xie said in a low voice: "If the son doesn't want to see him, then so-and-so will go back to him, and say that the son is busy with official business." Didn't have time to see him! ”

Kong Sheng thought for a moment. Shaking his head, "Let him in." ”

Although Kong Sheng hates Li Ding very much. But after all, they are both serving in Suiyang, standing on the same boat, and are on the front line of counterinsurgency and anti-thieves.

Li Ding walked in with a smile, hugged his fist to Kong Sheng and saluted: "The last general, Li Ding, has seen Kong County's order." ”

Kong Sheng smiled: "General Li, what a rare guest. I wonder what is the point of your coming to me? ”

Kong Sheng didn't bother to take Li Ding into the living room, and stood directly in the courtyard to ask, anyway, if you have something to say, hurry up and get out, don't disturb Lao Tzu to practice swords.

Kong Sheng was still holding the sharp and cold sword in his hand, his expression was solemn and awe-inspiring.

Li Ding glanced at the sword in Kong Sheng's hand with some fear, and said with a smile: "The last general is here, even if he visits Kong County's order, he also wants to meet Miss Nie." ”

Kong Sheng was surprised. His gaze became deeper: "Looking for Senior Sister Nie?" ”

At this time, the door of the other side room creaked open. Nie Chuchen walked out indifferently, the black big coat was open to the wind, and said loudly: "What are you looking for this girl?" ”

Li Ding hugged his fists with a smile on his face and said: "Li Ding has seen Miss Nie, dare to ask Miss Nie how old she is, has she ever been married?" ”

As soon as Li Ding said this, not to mention that Nie Chuchen felt abruptly dissatisfied, even Kong Sheng was a little angry, and immediately understood a little, but he didn't hold back and didn't attack on the spot, but watched coldly and watched the changes.

It is very presumptuous and rude to ask a big girl's age and whether she is married. But Nie Chuchen is not an ordinary woman, unhappy or unhappy, but he didn't care too much, but said with a cold face: "This girl is 20 years old this year, of course she is not married, Li Ding, you came to ask this girl this coldly, what do you want?" If you don't give me an explanation, I'll shoot you in the head!" ”

"Miss Nie, I'm taking the liberty of going down. Since Miss Nie has never been married, she has the courage to say a kiss to Miss Nie, what do you think? ”

Li Ding hurriedly said: "Zhang Kui, the deputy commander of the infantry battalion, is from a famous family, strong in martial arts, and Zhang Zhongcheng's nephew, who is the same age as Miss Nie, and can be married. General Zhang has admired Miss Nie for a long time, so he asked him to come down to ask for relatives in person, bring some gifts in the next place, and wait outside the mansion......"

When Kong Sheng heard this, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

A family of women asks for it, Nie Chuchen is so beautiful, and it is normal for him to be favored by men. However, in this Suiyang City, who doesn't know that Nie Chuchen is the person next to him, Zhang Kui knows this, and dares to let Li Ding come over to ask for marriage, this is not a matter of a toad wanting to eat swan meat, but an invisible provocation!

Nie Chuchen didn't expect that someone would ask him for a kiss, and besides, it was the rammer Zhang Kui she looked down on the most, she was stunned, and immediately laughed.

After laughing, she raised her hand and pointed at Li Ding and said, "Is that Zhang Kui who was almost scared to pee by the halberd painted by Fang Tian in Kong Sheng's hand?" A mere lieutenant who is not in the stream, a shameless dog thief, dares to fight this girl's idea! Go back and tell Zhang Kui that if you die early, this girl will marry a dog, and she won't take a fancy to him! Get out of here, or this girl will shoot you through the dog's head with an arrow! ”

Nie Chuchen pulled out his cloud-piercing bow from his back, without a word of nonsense, the arrow swished, and a feather arrow grazed Li Ding's front door, buzzing into the gallery pillars, trembling in the wind.

Li Ding was so frightened that his soul did not possess his body, and when he saw the sword in Kong Sheng's hand slightly raised, his expression was angry, so he turned his head and left in despair.

Mu Changfeng walked out of the other room, and couldn't help laughing: "Third brother, this dog thief is really crazy, the toad wants to eat swan meat, and he doesn't look in the mirror to see his virtue, he dares to beat Miss Nie's idea, doesn't he know that Miss Nie is my third brother's...... Yes!! ”

Mu Changfeng wanted to speak and stopped, and glanced at Kong Sheng with an ambiguous expression.

Nie Chuchen walked over generously, and said with a crisp smile: "Brother Mu, you don't have to hide it, and there is nothing to shy away from, in short, since Kong Sheng took me as a dowry, he is the fiancé of this girl." Hmph, if he dares to abandon the old lady from the beginning, even if he runs to the ends of the earth, the old lady will never let him go! ”

As he spoke, Nie Chuchen pretended to be evil and glared at Kong Sheng fiercely, but his eyebrows were full of smiles.

Kong Sheng laughed and laughed: "Senior Sister Nie, don't talk nonsense. What does it mean to abandon chaos from the beginning to the end? The younger brother has never been rude to the senior sister, if your words are said casually, if they reach the ears of outsiders, won't it ruin the reputation of the senior sister? ”

Nie Chuchen blushed and spat: "This girl has come to Suiyang with you, and she lives in the same courtyard with you, under the melon field and plums, what other reputation does she have?" Little thief, you don't want to be cheap and behave, the old lady is not easy to bully! ”

Nie Chuchen will be a "girl" for a while, and an "old lady" for a while, going around and around, and Mu Changfeng will be embarrassed. He lowered his head and laughed secretly, seeing that the atmosphere was awkward, he secretly glanced at Wu Xian and Wu Xie and the others, and motioned for them to go out of the mansion with him to wander around the city for an hour or two, so as to create time for Kong Sheng and Nie Chuchen to spend alone with each other.

Zhang Kui's house.

Suiyang City originally had thousands of households, and it was also a big city in Henan Province and the capital city of a state. After An Lushan rebelled, the war raged in Henan Province, many people fled their hometowns with their children, coupled with the massacre of the rebels, many cities were ten rooms and nine empty, the population was greatly reduced, and Suiyang was no exception.

Because of this, there are many idle mansions in the city, and every general or subordinate official under Zhang Xun has been assigned a building.

After listening to Li Ding's reply, I heard that Nie Chuchen had a strong attitude and claimed that "even if you marry a dog, you can't look down on Zhang Kui, a dog thief", Zhang Kui was extremely ashamed and angry, and his face was almost distorted.

He kicked the small table in front of him into the air, and then roared and rushed into the courtyard, hysterically cursing.

After a long time, Zhang Kui slowly calmed down. Seeing that he was gradually returning to normal, Li Ding stepped forward to persuade him: "Brother Zhang, don't be angry. I think that Nie's little girl is pretending to be a gesture, wait for two days, and then I will go to ask for Brother Zhang, and I will definitely help you promote this family business. ”

Zhang Kui shook his head and sneered: "Brother Virtuous is kind, Brother Fool understands it." But don't bother. This girl and Kong Sheng are not innocent, I'm afraid she has already lost her body, Lao Tzu is just playing at most, how can he really marry her and enter the door! ”

"Let's talk about it later...... However, it can't be too proud, Brother Xian, it's better to ...... like this" A trace of madness and hideousness flashed in Zhang Kui's eyes, and he whispered a few words in Li Ding's ear, and the two immediately looked at each other presumptuously, laughing wildly.

From the next day, a group of bloody generals under Zhang Xun's command who were in their twenties and had not yet married a wife suddenly made some kind of mistake collectively for some reason, and asked people to line up to come to the door to ask Nie Chuchen for marriage.

Kong Sheng was angry in his heart, but he couldn't attack, because people came to the door to ask for marriage, and you can't take Fang Tian's halberd to cut people out of the door.

Needless to say, this also reached the ears of Zhang Xun, the yamen of the Taishou Mansion. Zhang Xun laughed at it and listened to it as a joke, but he didn't take it too seriously. For Zhang Xun, this can probably be regarded as a kind of black humor episode before the big war, and it should be a kind of relaxation before the soldiers go into battle and fight bloodily.

Taishou Xu Yuan couldn't see it, and once met Zhang Xun and said a few words, but seeing that Zhang Xun was indifferent, he had no choice but to do it.

But Kong Sheng could hold back his anger, Nie Chuchen's temperament was like fire, knowing that these people's malicious purpose was to humiliate themselves, how could they hold it back, just when the seventh person came to the door to ask for marriage, she held the cloud piercing bow and shot through the bun of a matchmaker's hair with an arrow, almost making the woman splash blood for five steps, which ended the farce.
