Agreeing to be the deputy envoy of the five counties in Nanzhong has already made Xu Shu very entangled, and when he heard that there were additional conditions, Xu Shu couldn't help jumping up and said loudly: "You said that you will only punish me for one thing, how can you go back on your word!" ”

"Humph! My lord not only didn't kill you, but also made you an official, why do you know what to do like this! Isn't it just an additional condition, isn't it more terrible than killing your head? Is he still a man? ”

Xu Shu followed the sound, but it was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl behind Zhu Rong who spoke, with apricot eyes and peach cheeks, red lips and white teeth, and her appearance was similar to Zhu Rong. She was dressed as a barbarian daughter, and her silver ornaments made a "jingling" sound from time to time, and she was looking at Xu Shu defiantly. Xu Shu didn't want to be looked down upon by women, not to mention that he was still a barbarian woman, his machismo played a role again, his waist was straight, and he said loudly: "What are the additional conditions?" You say, I'll take it! ”

The girl who spoke was Zhu Rong's cousin Zhu Yan, she was naturally on Liu Xin's side, and blurted out those words almost without thinking about it, and actually took Xu Shu away. Liu Xinruo nodded at her meaningfully, turned around and said, "Xu Shu, this condition is very simple, in the past five years, you have to continue to help Zhu Jie complete his studies." He's my brother-in-law, and you must not be lazy in this matter. ”

Xu Shu was dumbfounded and muttered, "No?" It's as simple as that? ”

Zhu Yan "snorted" again and said, "Then what do you think my master wants you to do!" ”

Zhu Rong turned around and shouted: "Yan'er, don't be rude!" ”

Liu Xin already said with a smile: "Zhu Yan, I also have a task for you to do." ”

Zhu Yan said in surprise: "Me? ”

"Not bad!" Liu Xin said, "This Mr. Xu will be the deputy envoy of the five counties in Nanzhong in the future, and it is inevitable that he will often go in and out of the various villages of the barbarians. He doesn't know the language, he doesn't know the road, he needs to have a guide and a guard, and this matter will be left to you. ”

Zhu Yan shook his head again and again, and the silver ornaments on his head made a pleasant sound of "jingling", and said busily: "I'm not going, I'm not going, I'm going to follow the lord and Mrs." Besides, doesn't he boast of being a skilled swordsman? Where do you still need me to protect. ”

Zhu Rong knew Liu Xin's intentions, and he said more than once that when he returned to the cave this time, he would let her four cousins stay. Although Zhu Rong also hoped to have a caring companion by his side, he didn't want to disobey Liu Xin's intentions, and was thinking about how to open his mouth to these four people, and now that the opportunity was in front of him, he could send one away, so he pulled Zhu Yan to his side and said: "Ah Yan, you also know that there are many snakes and insects in the mountains and forests in the Nanzhong area, and that is not ......something that swordsmanship can deal with."

Without waiting for Zhu Rong to speak, Zhu Ding had already said with a calm face: "Zhu Yan, I will order you now in the name of the patriarch to take care of Mr. Xu, oh no, it is to take care of Lord Xu's daily life." ”

Of course, it would be good to have a few more people in the family to follow Liu Xin, but looking at the current situation, Liu Xin is good enough for Zhu Rong, and Zhu Ding doesn't want to make extraneous branches. What's more, Xu Shu's talent Zhu Ding is also very clear, in the next five years, he is not only his assistant, but also his son's mentor, protecting his safety and taking care of his life is also an unshirkable thing for Zhu Ding.

Today's Zhu family has a bit of the taste of the Han people, and the newly built house is also presentable, and some flowers and plants are planted in the yard, although it is not as exquisite as the Xiangyang Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, but it also has a special interest.

Lying on the rattan bed, with warm nephrite in her arms, Liu Xin secretly decided that after going back, she must build a house with better sound insulation. Everything stems from Zhu Rong's volume that is three times higher than that of other **, and it can only be slightly warm in the barracks, and now this is Zhu Rong's maiden home, and it is also inconvenient to make too much movement, so you can't wait until it rains heavily to do that in the future.

Zhu Rong enjoyed this moment very much, she snuggled up to Liu Xin's chest like a well-behaved cat, pinched a strand of hair and scratched Liu Xin's face.

can see and touch but can't eat it, Liu Xin slapped Zhu Rong's plump full moon fat buttocks twice with some annoyance, and said, "Tease me again, be careful of family law!" ”

Zhu Rong suddenly raised his neck, stared at Liu Xin for a while, laughed out loud, slapped his chest twice, and said, "Brother, do you particularly want to do that?" Otherwise, or else, we will go to the mountains and forests tomorrow to find a secluded and uninhabited place......"

Her voice grew smaller and smaller, so small that she couldn't even hear herself, and her heart was pounding. Liu Xin was even more taken aback by her bold words and deeds, field battle! She can think of this method, she is worthy of being a barbarian daughter, but even if she is willing, she can't pull this face.

In fact, even if Liu Xin could pull that face, they would not have time to go to the "field battle", because Wen Ping and Feng Lie escorted the families of the patriarchs and heads of the Meng family to the cave.

Originally, these people didn't need to be escorted here, but when it came to Yang Feng's sister-in-law, Wen Ping and Feng Lie didn't dare to call the shots, and Liu Xin had already left the barracks, so they had to bring them all here.

Many of these family members, Zhu Ding's father and son and Zhu Rong all knew each other, and seeing that these people had become captives, the expressions on the faces of the three members of the Zhu family were a little weird, and they had their own thoughts.

Zhu Ding was more glad that he had hugged Liu Xin's thigh a long time ago, otherwise the fate of the Zhu family would not be much better than that of the Meng family. Zhu Jie's eyes searched around the crowd, and several of his childhood playmates were gone.

Zhu Rong's face was extremely ugly, she knew that the Meng family must have been purged in the most cruel and thorough way, although several of her childhood best friends had already married women, and now they were also disheveled and haggard in the crowd. Zhu Rong knew that the Han army was strictly disciplined, and these people would not be humiliated, but because of the strict military discipline, without Liu Xin's order, no one would dare to kill the Meng family, even if it was just to kill a prisoner, they would never dare to do this kind of thing.

Liu Xin knew that this matter could not be hidden, he didn't want to really let his subordinates carry this black cauldron for him, so he coughed twice and said: "Rong'er, I know that as a descendant of the Fire God, you have the responsibility of protecting the barbarian tribes. However, I also have a compelling reason to do this, and in the final analysis, it is also to help you. ”

"Does this help me?" Zhu Rong snorted and said angrily, "Then why don't you just kill all my clansmen, why do you want to bring these women and children back?" Show your majesty? ”

"Ah Rong, how can you talk to adults like this?" Zhu Ding hurriedly shouted.

Zhu Ding knows very well, don't say that people like Liu Xin are in a high position, even if they are ordinary scholars, there will be no shortage of women. If Zhu Rong offends Liu Xin because of this incident, then she can only suffer in the end. Besides, one of his own arms has been cut off by Meng Shu, and for the Meng family, he only has hatred and no defense now.

Feng Lie didn't know that Liu Xin had already wanted to expose this matter to the world, and he still remembered that Liu Xin asked him to carry the black cauldron, and seeing that Zhu Rong's face was not safe, he quickly knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Lord Qi, these things are all made by the general. The face of the last general is considered to be ruined by Meng Shu, and which woman is willing to follow the last general in the future? The last general was annoyed, so he killed the killer, and originally wanted to kill all the boys of the Meng family, if not, if not, if not......"

Zhu Rong sneered: "Why do you talk so much? What if not? ”

Although they have known each other since childhood, Zhu Rong's current identity is there, and Feng Lie has to respect it, pointing to Yang Muyu who is standing in the crowd, and arching his hand and saying: "Back to Mrs. Zhu Rong, if she hadn't persuaded her, the ringworm would have really killed them." ”

Liu Xin looked in the direction of Feng Lie's finger, and saw a beautiful young woman with a graceful body glaring at Feng Lie, and couldn't help laughing, and said, "General Feng, you get up." Let me ask you, do you have a crush on someone? ”

Zhu Rong said angrily: "You are still laughing, you should always give me an explanation for today's events." ”

Feng Lie knew how important the relationship between Zhu Rong and Liu Xin was to the entire barbarian clan, and when he saw that the two of them still showed signs of quarrel, he quickly stood up, and with a "snort", he ripped off the white cloth covering his face, only to see a long knife and axe scar pulled from the left eyebrow to the bottom of the right lip, like an ugly earthworm squirming slightly, making his already not very handsome face even more hideous and terrifying.

He did this to tell Zhu Rong that Meng Huo had hurt me like this, so wouldn't I be allowed to take revenge on the rest of the Meng family? It's just that he pulled that just now, obviously affecting the wound, and the pain made him grin, gasping for air, and he didn't make a sound when he endured it, but the look on his face was very ugly.

Zhu Rong was also taken aback when he saw this face at first glance, and asked repeatedly: "He, why did he hurt you like this?" ”

Liu Xin took the opportunity to say: "To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to yourself. You see, General Feng's martial arts will never be injured like this by Meng Yu, it must be General Feng's compassion because he misses his old friendship, and as a result, you have also seen it. In fact, General Feng is already very simple, if he were someone else, he would have killed all the old and young of the Meng family. Moreover, this order was given to him by me. ”

Feng Lie seemed to have discussed with Liu Xin in advance, and nodded vigorously. In fact, this is the true feeling in his heart, no one's face will be made like this, it will not be good, he regrets dying now, he should have killed the killer in the first place.

Liu Xin saw Zhu Rong's expression a little hesitant, pointed to Zhu Ding's empty right arm, and continued: "Rong'er, look, how can you show mercy to a murderous person like Meng Huo? ”

Zhu Ding also shook his right arm very cooperatively, the empty sleeve fluttered in the wind, and it was really sad to see in his eyes.

Zhu Rong's face really relaxed a little, and he hesitated: "However, all this is done by Meng Shu, what does it have to do with the rest of the Meng family?" ”

Liu Xin said with a firm expression: "Because the Meng family is one!" ”
