Chapter 131: Stepmother
"The last general, Zhang Xiu, visited the lord." Zhang Xiu, who was sad and angry, turned around and bowed to the ground.
Beside him, Hu Che'er and other Zhang family soldiers also knelt on the ground one after another.
This worship naturally symbolizes the surrender and submission to Diao Xiong, and also expresses gratitude to Diao Xiong's words.
"Bo Yuan, please get up quickly." Mink Xiong smiled and helped Zhang Xiu up.
At this time, Zhang Xiu asked again: "I don't know if the agreement between embroidery and the lord will be repeated." ”
Zhang Xiu pointed to the fact that he wanted to make an appointment with Mink Xiong.
Diao Xiong laughed and said happily: "It is really my Mink Xiong's honor to have a righteous brother like Bo Yuan, I will do what I say, how can I breach the contract." ”
Zhang Xiu is a tiger general, and if he surrenders, he can collect the hearts of these thousands of Western Liang soldiers, and smoothly incorporate him and use it for his own use.
Moreover, for a person like Diao Xiong, who has no relatives to help him and can only rely on himself to fight the world, it is not a bad idea to marry a righteous brother and make him loyal to serve himself.
It seems that Liu Bei didn't just accept Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's two righteous brothers, who loyally worked for him and made immeasurable contributions in the process of Liu Bei's establishment of the imperial industry.
"The lord's faith and righteousness are like a mountain, and I, Zhang Xiu, really didn't send the wrong person." Zhang Xiu saw that Mink Xiong was happy and repeated, and he was grateful and admired.
At that moment, Mink Xiong ordered the armies to strengthen the city defense of Wuguan on the one hand, and repair the morale of the rest on the other hand, and prepare to fight Dong Zhuo's 100,000 iron cavalry.
In the afternoon of the next day, Mink Xiong was in the lobby of the military palace, burning incense and setting up a case, and officially married Zhang Xiuyi Jinlan.
The two of them have finished worshipping heaven and earth. Ask each other how old they are. Diao Xiong is also one year older than Zhang Xiu. It should be for the brother.
Zhang Xiudang knelt down again, hugged his fists and said: "The eldest brother is above, please accept the worship of the younger brother." ”
"Okay, good, good brother, please get up." Mink Xiong helped Zhang Xiu up again, in a good mood, and let out a loud voice.
After the joy, Diao Xiong suddenly remembered something, and said again: "I heard that Bo Yuan, you have been a father since childhood. She was brought up by Aunt Ling, just like her mother, and now that you and I have become righteous xiōngdì, she is like my righteous mother, and I should go to see her. ”
Zhang Xiu saw that Diao Xiong respected his aunt so much, and was naturally grateful, so he invited Diao Xiong to his tent.
Lifting the curtain, the two strode in.
At this time, the Zou family was still wearing plain clothes, and he was secretly sad. Grieved for the death of her husband, she saw Mink Xiong and them enter. hurriedly suppressed his tears and got up to greet him.
"Concubine Zou family, meet the lord." Zou thought that he was attached to the command of Mink Xiong, so he was a courtier, so he naturally did not dare not disobey the courtesy of his subordinates.
Seeing this, Mink Xiong hurriedly took a step forward, and without waiting for Zou to bow down, he held her arm and gently held her up.
When Mink's hand touched her arm, even though she was separated by a layer of clothing, she could appreciate the smooth and weak touch of the road.
When Zou raised his head, Mink Xiong's heart couldn't help but move slightly.
It was a beautiful face, although it was more than three years old, and there were some traces of time between the eyebrows, but it was still difficult to hide the charm, but there was a mature charm of elegance.
This is Zhang Xiu's aunt, the legendary Zou family, which is really worthy of her name.
Diao Xiong remembered that in history, after Zhang Xiu surrendered to Cao Cao for the first time, Cao Cao was so proud that he openly let his nephew Cao Anmin find a beautiful woman for him to enjoy.
Then Cao Anmin forcibly sent this Zou to Cao Cao's tent for him to enjoy.
As a result, Cao Cao was fascinated by the beauty and charm of the Zou family, and he was actually negligent in guarding against Zhang Xiu, and finally was annoyed and angry Zhang Xiu launched a night attack, killing him and fleeing, the eldest son Cao Ang, the general Dian Wei and the nephew Cao Anmin all died under Zhang Xiu's hands.
Cao Cao did not have many defeats in his life, and this defeat can be said to be Cao Cao's worst defeat.
It can be said that this fiasco was caused by Cao Cao's covetousness of Zou's beauty.
Mink Xiong was conjecturing at that time, what kind of appearance did this Zou I have, and a generation of heroes were lost in proportion, and today I saw its beauty to understand.
Seeing that beautiful face, Mink Xiong's heart only fluttered slightly, and he immediately remembered the identity of the Zou family, a different color flashed in his eyes, and his arm was forced, and he gently helped Zou up.
"Now I have married Bo Yuan xiōngdì, I heard that Bo Yuan treats his wife like a mother, that is also like my mink male righteous mother, my righteous mother is above, please accept my worship." Mink Xiong's words were respectful, and he bowed to the Zou family.
Zou was taken aback, with such an unexpected expression, obviously he didn't expect such a scene.
She only remembered that Zhang Xiu told her that today was the period of righteousness between Zhang Xiu and the main husband Minkxiong, thinking that their Zhang family would have a basis from now on, and they could gain a firm foothold in the Mink Xiong camp, and one day they could avenge her deceased husband.
The Zou family never expected that the new lord would value their Zhang family so much, not only to worship his nephew, but also to come in person to worship with his stepmother.
The flattered Zou didn't know how to respond for a while, and his body trembled with emotion, and the one under his feet didn't stand firmly, but he snorted and fell to the side.
"Stepmother......" Mink Xiong's eyes were quick, and before Zou fell, the ape arm reached out violently and gently hugged Zou's waist.
Suddenly, Zou's slightly plump body fell into the crook of Mink's arm, and a heavy and soft feeling came over.
Zou's charming face is just a stone's throw away, under the pink and white fragrant neck, two full peaks, violently undulating due to fright, and the deep ravine between the two peaks is looming, and it is even more indescribably thrilling.
In an instant, Mink Ambition's heart jumped wildly, and he was a little distracted.
But the loss of consciousness was only an instant, and Mink Xiong immediately pressed Xiàqù, helped Zou to his feet, and asked with concern: "Righteous mother, are you okay, have you been hurt anywhere?" ”
Zou, who stood up straight, suddenly fainted on his face, and between his apricot eyes and willow eyebrows, a trace of shame quietly appeared.
For so many years, except for her deceased husband, she has not been so close to a second man, almost skin to skin.
Moreover, this man is still a masculine, heroic and vigorous teenager.
Shicai's unexpected touch actually caused her heart to be in turmoil, and in addition to being ashamed, her heart was pounding and she didn't listen, and she vaguely felt a little throbbing.
It's just that the throbbing feeling disappeared in a flash, and Zou quickly realized that he shouldn't have that feeling.
Shaking his head slightly, Zou forcibly discarded the strange feeling in his mind at that moment, and regained that dignified and elegant temperament in a blink of an eye.
"Thank you for your support." Zou Ying Ying bowed, words grateful, but did not dare to look at each other.
Cocoon smiled and said, "My stepmother is polite, from now on, we will be our own family, just call me Ziyong, you don't need to call me the lord." ”
Zou became more and more flattered, and the sentence "Ziyong" came to his mouth, but it was always difficult to speak, and he couldn't help but raise his head and look at Zhang Xiu behind him, wanting to see what Zhang Xiu meant.
At this time, Zhang Xiu was full of gratitude and respect, and was sincerely moved by Minkxiong's approachability.
Seeing her aunt's inquiring eyes, Zhang Xiu thought for a while, and said: "The eldest brother is also a heart, but the courtesy of the lord and the minister cannot be abolished, in the future, I will call the lord the eldest brother, and the aunt will call the eldest brother the word "cousin", and when there are outsiders, the eldest brother should be called the lord." ”
Zhang Xiu has a clear distinction between public and private, and does not rely on the fact that he has already formed a righteous relationship with Mink Xiong, as a righteous xiōngdì, he abolished the distinction between the lord and the minister, and has some self-reliance.
Diao Xiong admired Zhang Xiu's general knowledge, and was happy in his heart, so he smiled again: "Bo Yuan's words are reasonable, and now there are no outsiders in the hall, and my stepmother just calls me a word." ”
Speaking of this, Zou reluctantly let go of his scruples, took a deep breath, bit his lip lightly, and said in a low voice: "Ziyong." ”
"That's right, my stepmother." Mink Xiong was satisfied, haha dàxiào, and arched his hand again: "Then I won't disturb my stepmother first, I want to have a good drink with Bo Yuan, and drink him drunk before resting." ”
After that, Diao Xiong put his arm on Zhang Xiu's shoulder, and the two young brothers talked and laughed and strode away.
Zou gave another blessing and watched the two of them leave, and after a while, the room began to be quiet.
"This mink is brave, but he is really an approachable hero, I don't know how much stronger than that Dong Zhuo, Xiu'er and I can rely on such a lord, and we will have no worries in the future......"
Zou muttered to himself, admiring the benefits of Diao Xiong, but in his mind, he couldn't help but think of the scene when he fell into Diao Xiong's arms.
Thinking of this scene, but for some reason, Zou only felt that his face suddenly became hot again, and he had just calmed down in a mood, and suddenly jumped up again.
……
North of Wuguan, a hundred miles away.
The 100,000 Xiliang army is stationed here.
It was cold outside, but in the big tent of the Chinese army, the furnace was melting and the smell of wine was overflowing.
The fat Dong Zhuo was sitting on it, chatting and laughing with a group of civil and military people, enjoying this comfort.
It was close to Wuguan here, but Dong Zhuo was not in a hurry to enter the army, in his opinion, although Niu Fu was defeated, it was definitely not a problem to hold Wuguan.
As long as he arrives at Wuguan, he can wave his division out of the pass with 100,000 iron horsemen, and take revenge on the thief of Diao Xiong.
Just as the wine was drunk to Xing's head, the curtain was suddenly opened, and his son-in-law Niu Fu rushed in in with a disgraced face in the surprised eyes of everyone.
Everyone was shocked.
Dong Zhuo's expression changed even more, and he asked urgently: "Zixie, you are not stationed at Wuguan, how can you come here?" ”
Niu Fu knelt on the ground and said sadly: "Father-in-law, the day before yesterday, the mink male used Brother Huang as a shield to attack the city, and the son-in-law could not lead the army due to injury, so he asked Zhang Ji to lead the troops. The son-in-law was angry, and he took down that Zhang Ji, who would have thought that his nephew Zhang Xiu would rebel because of this, and he should help that mink Xiong break through the martial arts! ”
The beloved nephew was killed, and the martial arts pass has been broken!
Bang.
The wine glass in Dong Zhuo's hand fell to the ground without his hand. (To be continued......)
