Chapter 688: Chess Game

Dongchuan County, in the General's Mansion.

Chu Broken Soul is still as usual today, early in the morning to listen to Xu Sanshao's sour text on a pot of wine, the wine accompanied by the sour text also seems a little sour, and today Xu Sanshao is very angry, Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island, fair lady, gentleman, just read it, and give himself a touching flesh and numb love poem, I saw him shaking his head and chanting: "The bright moon shines on the ditch, I live in the ditch in the dark, painstakingly probing the head and stuffy, and the taste of turbid wine in the throat and fart ......"

Hearing this, Chu Broken Soul had just poured half a mouthful of wine into it and squirted out, and now this sour poem not only has a sour taste, but also a fart smell. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I said Sanshao, this poem is really ......."

"You don't really have any feelings, do you?" Xu Sanshao also deeply agreed, and said: "I also know that this kind of poem can only be chanted by emotional people, but there is no woman in this city who has my heart in mind, how can I feel embarrassed......

Chu Xuan's soul was sweating profusely, and he slandered for a while, you don't go out of the house all day, although this city is big, the women you have seen are probably limited to those little maids, these maids have been familiar with it since childhood, and it is normal for the people who have feelings and have no intentions there. Chu Xuansoul couldn't help but gloat a little, half-crossed his legs, and said: "Don't worry, with your Xu Sanshao's family background and literary talents, you will always find a good family, why worry about this?" ”

"Sixth brother, you don't know about this!" Xu Sanshao made it to Chu Xuan's side with a bitter face, slapped his thigh suddenly, and said, "Little brother, this is what worries me." My father had already set his sights on the girl from the Wang family, and wanted me to marry him. If it weren't for the emperor's transfer of my father to Dongchuan County this time, I would have been married off alive by my father. ”

"You're married, right? How to get married? Chu Broken Soul asked with a smile.

"No, it's usually supposed to be married. However, in my opinion, this family business married me off. You don't know, although the younger brother has never seen the Wang girl, but he has already sent someone to inquire, this Wang girl said that it is a girl, but she gave birth to five big and three thick, like a fat pig, not only strong and edible, but also quite powerful, three or five ordinary men can not stand her pair of meat palms, a palm down, if you don't die, there is half a life left. Xu Sanshao seemed to have married that Wang girl, his face changed as he spoke, as if the fat Wang girl was about to rush towards him, with a little misery in his voice, and said: "You say, with my little arms and legs, if I really marry her, it doesn't seem to be like marrying a person?" Not to mention that she is rude, she just wants to hold her own lady like others, and she has to risk her life. The younger brother doesn't dare to think about it at all on weekdays, and when he thinks about it, there is no interest in composing poems and chanting poems, and it is really miserable, miserable......"

Hearing him describe it like this, Chu Broken Soul couldn't help but gasp, and said in surprise: "Is there really such a strange girl in the world? ”

"Is that not true?" Xu Sanshao nodded his head and said: "Actually, this kind of strange girl is not a strange girl, the younger brother once heard that there was a strange girl next to Yue Shao'an in Song Shicheng, with a fat body and high martial arts, and he was even more infatuated with Yue Shao'an, but it was a pity that when Yue Shao'an went to Jin to rescue the current Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, he died outside the capital in order to save him...... Respectable and admirable, singing and crying, pity and pity, pitiful and ......"

"Wait......" Chu Broken Soul looked at him and had a sour attack, if he didn't interrupt him, he didn't know when "Ke" would go, so he raised his hand and said, "The one you are talking about is Long Xiaofeng?" ”

"Exactly!" Xu Sanshao sighed: "Has the sixth brother also heard of it? It's a pity that such a strange woman is really unwise, Yue Shaoan didn't accept her at the beginning. If it were me......"

"Isn't there such a marriage now? Listening to what you said, this Wang girl can also be regarded as the dragon and phoenix of Dali. Hearing him say this, Chu Broken Soul couldn't help but tease.

Xu Sanshao exaggeratedly leaned back a little, waved his hand again and again, and said, "Forget it." How can the woman of the Wang family compare with Long Xiaofeng. Marry her? I want to live a few more years. ”

Chu Xuansoul straightened his body and said lightly: "Don't you get married?" Do you dare to disobey your father's orders? ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Sanshao was like a deflated ball, and the whole person fell back to the chair softly, sighed softly, and said, "Yes." It's hard for my dad to explain it. If I still want to be his son, I must not marry her, or my father will have to kill me. ”

"Oh?" Chu Broken Soul was a little puzzled: "Why is this? Didn't General Xu love you the most? ”

"I'd rather he didn't hurt me." Xu Sanshao lowered his head and said helplessly: "Do you know? The power of the king in the court is directly after the prime minister, and my father is an official of the same faction. In order to get a good relationship with the Wang family, he had to let me marry the Wang girl. You don't know, don't look at him spoiling me on weekdays, once he gets angry, but if he is beaten to death, it would be good if I were a woman. You can choose your own husband like your sister, and you can save yourself from idleness......"

"What do you mean by that?" Xu Sanshao's words hooked Chu Xuan's curiosity, and he couldn't help but ask again.

"My father often said that after a woman marries her husband, she will be dedicated to her husband's family, and she can only accompany her husband for the rest of her life. But men are different, after marrying a wife, three wives and four concubines can be allowed. In this way, the wife must be determined by the parents. Therefore, although the Wang family also has a son, and he is both talented and good-looking, the Wang family also intends to let my sister marry her, but my sister just shook her head, and my father pushed me into this fire pit. Xu Sanshao raised his head in discouragement and said, "Do you say I'm bitter?" Isn't it better to be a woman? ”

Chu Xuansoul shook his head and said, "General Xu's thoughts are really different from ordinary people. In fact, I think what your father said is very reasonable, after marrying, if you don't like this Wang girl, you can take another concubine, and if you want to come to your family background, the other party will not raise objections......"

"Of course you would say that!" Xu Sanshao glanced at Chu Xuan's soul, snorted lightly, and said, "Although my sister has a bit of a pungent personality, I'm afraid that there are not a few in the entire Dali Kingdom that look like this." You are cheap and sell well, and I will treat you as a brother if I lose money......"

"Did I get a bargain?" Chu Xuan's eyes widened, and he was very unhappy in his heart, if it weren't for Zhuo Yan's secret order, he would have avoided this difficult girl by now. A few days ago, after Chu Xuansoul reported the situation on his side, Zhuo Yan immediately sent a secret letter asking him to avoid Xu Long'er, which really made him unable to figure it out, but it was not easy to disobey. Because of this relationship, he even saved the matter of practicing every morning, and Xu Lu'er would definitely come after morning tea every day, which gave him a headache. Therefore, when he heard Xu Sanshao say that he had been cheapened, he reacted greatly, stood up and pointed out the door, and said, "Is this called cheap?" Your sister is a national color Tianxiang, but she didn't use her smiling face to face me, she used a sword, my third young master, you try it. I've been here for more than two months, has she ever stopped for a day? Try to be chased by someone with a sword for two pairs of moons every day, and you will know what it is like......"

"Speaking of which, you've broken nearly seventy swords in our family." Xu Sanshao didn't pay attention to Chu Xuan's excitement, but said thoughtfully: "I've never seen my sister like this before, it seems that she really fell in love with you......"

Chu Xuansoul glanced at him angrily, lifted the wine jug on the table, and poured it into his mouth again. Suddenly, there was a coquettish shout outside: "Chu Liu, you come out for me." Do you still have the ability to break this sword, girl? ”

Chu Broken Soul "Bang!" With a sound, he put the wine jug on the table, slapped his forehead, and said, "Look, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." Not again...... Alas......"

Looking at Chu Xuan's soul sighing, Xu Sanshao swept away his previous sorrowful face, and said excitedly: "Go quickly, listen to my sister's tone, you must have found a good sword today, judging that you can't break this sword, why don't you go out and try it?" ”

Chu Xuansoul looked at Xu Sanshao, who was happy with other people's unhappy things, glared at him fiercely, and said, "When didn't she say this, it's not the same?" ”

"Hehe...... Xu Sanshao didn't care so much, as long as he had fun, he was happy, and puffed up: "You just take care of it, her tone is different today, you listen to her voice with a sense of pride, this feeling has never been there since you broke her first sword." Today is definitely not the kind of murderous words that used to be. I know my sister too well, let's not let her wait, last time I almost ruined her study, I finally repaired it, you want to harm me again? Hurry up, hurry up, don't let her in......"

"Proud fart!" Chu Xuansoul angrily walked outside.

Xu Sanshao was not angry, he was still smiling, the two of them had become friends who talked about everything these days, and Chu Broken Soul occasionally put a foul language, he had already gotten used to it, and he didn't think so.

The two of them walked out of the door of the study one after another, one was stupid and the other was happy. In the courtyard, Xu Lu'er held a two-foot-long narrow-edged sword, and her figure was completely outlined in a strong suit, and her fair skin was even more beautiful under the turquoise clothes, especially the sword in her hand. The beauty sword complements each other, and the end is eye-catching, and it is very beautiful.

Xu Sanshao couldn't help but cheer and said, "Sister, you are so beautiful today, I can't even take my eyes off my little brother, some people are really blessed......"

"The dog can't spit out the ivory in his mouth and rolls aside." Xu Long'er didn't give Xu San less face very much, so she opened her mouth and scolded. However, Xu Sanshao seemed to have been used to it for a long time, and when he heard this, he didn't see the slightest annoyance, and still smiled and said, "Sister, can't you be gentle?" You don't know why the sixth brother is here, you will scare people away if you do this again. ”

Xu Lu'er ignored him, and looked straight towards Chu Xuan, only to see that his eyes were really staring at him motionless, thinking of Xu Sanshao's words just now, he couldn't help but lower his head with dizzy cheeks.

Chu Xuan'er was indeed staring at Xu Lu'er, but what he was looking at was the sword in Xu Lu'er's hand, he was already an expert in sword knowledge, and when he saw a good sword, he naturally showed appreciation......

After a while, the blush on Xu Lu'er's face faded, and she raised her head again, looked at Chu Xuan's soul and said, "If you can break this sword again today, I will really convince you." ”

Chu Broken Soul withdrew his gaze from the blade, turned to look at Xu Lu'er's pretty face, and said softly: "I didn't plan to let Miss Xu obey in the next place, I just ask Miss Xu not to chase and kill you with a sword in the future." ”

Xu Sanshao listened to the conversation between the two, it seemed to be very different from the past, there should be a good show to watch today, and he couldn't help but be very excited: "I think it's good to break the sword, and my sister will find a good sword again, in order to avenge the broken sword, if it is broken, then my sister will follow the sixth brother's wishes...... "Do you think this is good?" Xu Sanshao can be said to have taken great pains, in order to create an opportunity for Chu Broken Soul, he deliberately said that he was breaking the sword, so that Xu Long'er would follow Chu Broken Soul's mind. This sword break is naturally under the control of Chu Xuan's soul, isn't it up to him to decide?

Xu Lu'er naturally knew what it meant, and couldn't help but feel embarrassed, in order to hide her embarrassment, she suddenly raised her sword and stabbed Chu Xuan's soul with a sword, and shouted softly: "Look at the sword-"

Chu Broken Soul saw the sword blade coming straight towards him, faintly with a soft groan, turned sideways, flicked his fingertips lightly, and hit the sword surface, "Hum!" There was a soft sound, but it was not bounced out like the previous sword, but rolled back and rolled towards Chu Broken Soul's wrist.

Chu Xuan's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Good sword!" Then the arm retracted, stretched out again, and hit out in the direction of the blade rolled up, "Ding ......" The tip of the sword struck on the sword surface, and a sound of sword groaning sounded, and the sword body was passed down vigorously, forcing Xu Lu'er to almost abandon the sword, and took a few steps back before he stood firm, and said angrily: "What kind of ability is it just by strength, don't take it with strength if you have the ability." Before Chu Broken Soul could reply, she rushed forward again......

The two of them are fighting back and forth, and in the backyard of the General's Mansion, Xu Cheng is sitting firmly on a Taishi chair, his eyes slightly closed, listening to what the next person is saying.

After the man finished speaking, he slowly opened his eyes and said softly, "He is really not as simple as a rich son. Is the message exact? ”

The man saluted and said, "General Hui, your subordinates can be sure." ”

Xu is nearly fifty years old, but he looks like a person who is less than forty, the outline of his facial features is like a knife cut out, with a fierce aura, he sits there without anger and self-authority, and after hearing the affirmative reply, he nodded lightly and said: "I didn't expect that Yue Shao'an's empty and famous subordinates couldn't even gather such talents, so that he was exiled to Dali." ”

"That's what the general said." The man lightly bowed his head and said: "According to the investigation of his subordinates, this person used to be Yue Shao'an's close guard, and he was the first master of the Great Song Palace. But after Yue Shao'an's defeat to Yang Fan, he was squeezed out by the high-level of Song Shicheng because of his dereliction of duty, and then went into exile, and soon after Yue Shao'an returned to Song Shicheng, a fire broke out in this person's home, and the whole family died, and he never returned to Song Shicheng again. ”

Xu Cheng nodded and said, "That's it." Yue Shaoan watched his woman die in front of him, but he couldn't save it, and he would inevitably anger his subordinates, which is also human nature. However, the murder of his subordinates has gone a little too far. He doesn't use such talents, I use ......"

"General, it's just ......" the man stopped talking.

"It's nothing, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Xu Cheng said lightly.

"Yes!" The man said respectfully, "It's just that Miss and this person have been getting a little close recently, and besides, this person seems to have come to the General's Mansion for Miss, so ......"

"It's okay, since you have real skills, you don't know what I Xu Cheng is, and you won't mind his background."

"But this person is under the pseudonym Chu Liu, and he doesn't show his real name, and his subordinates always feel that something is wrong."

"He thinks he's a traitor, so he doesn't use his real name. Since his name is Chu Liu, let's treat him as Chu Liu. By the way, did you send the sword I asked you to send to Taki'er? ”

"My subordinate gave it to Miss yesterday afternoon, and after Miss saw it, she couldn't put it down."

Xu Cheng laughed and said: "This sword was increased by a master when I was young, the sword was originally the best sword, but unfortunately the sword body is lighter and cannot be used for battlefield fighting." Now that it's given to Taki'er, it's right for her, I want to see if this Chu Liu can break this sword as well......"

"This sword is sharp and tenacious, rare in the world, even if it is placed without moving, it may not be able to be broken, not to mention that the young lady's own martial arts are not weak. It would be good if Chu Liu was not injured under Miss's sword. It is absolutely impossible to break, general, don't worry......"

Xu Cheng nodded slightly and closed his eyes again. He thought that he knew all about the origin of this Chu Liu, but he didn't know that this was a trick set up for him by Zhuo Yan with all his efforts. Since Yue Shao'an returned to Song Shicheng, Zhuo Yan has inquired about Tang Zheng's whereabouts in many ways, but there has been no news. This time, when he created a false identity for Chu Broken Soul, he made some arrangements for Tang Zheng's identity to Chu Broken Soul, and also made a false impression in the city, burning down Tang Zheng's house, and the corpses inside were of course not Tang Zheng's family. Tang Zheng's family has now been taken to the Song Master's mansion, and absolutely no one knows about it......

Xu Cheng is from a military background, and he is good at arranging troops and fighting before the battle, of course, there is no professional supervision department for this kind of meticulous work, therefore, under Zhuo Yan's careful arrangement, Xu Cheng's people smoothly investigated and dealt with "Chu Liu's life experience". made Xu Cheng love talents, and wanted to use this fake Tang Zheng as the real Chu Liu for his own use, but he fell into the chess game set by Yue Shao'an step by step, and in time, he wanted to jump out, and it was no longer possible......
