Chapter 421: The Battlefield Opened by Women
The sunlight shines through the window, reflecting on that beautiful face, with a hazy glow. Xiaohong helped comb her long hair, while looking at Yan Sanniang in the mirror, and said something in her mouth: "Niangniang is the most beautiful woman in the world, and her martial arts are the highest, if you want to hold a martial arts conference, the alliance leader is definitely Niangniang's ......"
Yan Sanniang smiled, and the light and shadow in the mirror seemed to be blurred, "Is it a martial arts conference or a beauty pageant......
She stroked her cheeks, and a faint gloomy color came out between her willow eyebrows: "It's all the child's mother, what else do you say is beautiful." As for martial arts...... gave birth to a child again, and was pampered by Ahun, they are all a little deserted, and I really miss the old days. ”
Turning her head to put aside her distractions, Yan Sanniang looked at Xiaohong, looked up and down, nodded and said, "If you go, whether it is a beauty pageant or a martial arts conference, you can also come out on top." ”
Xiaohong said shyly: "How can I compare with Niangniang? ”
Yan Sanniang said seriously: "Speaking of appearance, the eighteenth change of the female university, your master and I are not as handsome as you at your age." Speaking of martial arts, you already have a foundation, and I have been teaching you hand-in-hand in the past few years, among the guards, except for Gan Jiaotou, no one else is your opponent. Since you are my disciple of Yan Sanniang, you have to show some confidence! ”
Xiaohong stuck out her tongue, "Yes!" Empress...... Master! ”
The long hair is pulled into a diagonal bun, if you don't see outsiders, Yan Sanniang, Guan Xuan and An Jiuxiu are all dressed up so leisurely, Yan Sanniang patted Xiaohong and said: "I'll go to the nurse to pick up the sunset, you go to Mingcuiyuan, make an appointment with Miss Duan, yesterday Ah Xuan must have scared people, I followed Guan Xuan to appease and appease her." ”
Xiao Hongxin said, no wonder the king of heaven moved like that last night, it is estimated that it was an attempt. Not only is Master Niangniang a peerless beauty, Guan Niangniang and An Niangniang are also beautiful, Mei Lan blooms, but the king of heaven is not satisfied, man, hum!
Whampoa Boundless Palace Wing Chun Garden is similar to Baicheng Wing Chun Garden, both of which are small Jiangnan gardens. The maids and gardeners swept and pruned in the garden, and when they saw Xiaohong coming out, they all bowed and saluted, calling them Sister Hong. Although Xiaohong is only sixteen or seventeen years old this year, as the princess's personal maid, she is naturally a female official, and she waved her hand and walked out of the garden.
Outside the garden is an open green space, leaning on a low slope or there are ancient trees, or there are small ponds, and the stone brick road is twisted and curved, connecting the ** gardens. Xiaohong was heading towards the Mingcui Garden, which was built for female guests, when she heard a familiar loud voice echoing from afar.
"This is the Heavenly King's Mansion, not an ordinary noble family! Put away all the little bits and pieces of chicken and dog in the past! Whether it's in the house or outside, you all have the face of the king! Everyone has to be more generous than the average lady! Bearing! Got it!? Pluck the tip of your chin out of your chest! You are not the palace maids next to the emperor and the prince! You are palace maids and eunuchs! Be a maid when you should be a maid, and be a eunuch when you should be a eunuch...... Yo, Xiaohong, I was sent by my mother early in the morning? ”
Seeing Xiaohong coming, her loud voice stopped, and she waved a handkerchief to say hello with a sneer, only to see that the old face of ** saw that Xiaohong couldn't wait to practice her boxing skills there.
"Grandma Liu...... I'm training newcomers again, so what eunuchs don't castrate, it has nothing to do with us."
But Xiaohong didn't have the guts, and responded with a smile. Although this loud-voiced woman has always been low-profile, her identity is not ordinary. This is Mrs. Liu, the old fellow of the Heavenly King, and her two sons are both senators of the Heavenly King's Mansion. The eldest son Liu Xingzhao is in charge of the Department of Culture and Education, the second son Liu Xingchun is in charge of the internal security and police affairs, and there is a son-in-law Gu Xiyi who is in charge of the Yinghua Bank.
So Xiaohong couldn't figure out why this Mrs. Liu was willing to be an ordinary housekeeper in the inner court, and she still sneered at her, a little maid, woo...... Goosebumps all over the body, so cold.
"Yes, yes, I missed my mouth for a while, don't take it to heart."
Mrs. Liu continued to laugh, watched Xiaohong leave, turned her head, and faced the new maids, and instantly changed her face to another face.
"Do you know who that is!? Yan Niangniang's apprentice is a good martial artist, even the guards and guards of the outer court, ten of them are not her opponents! So, oh, if you want to stay in this Heavenly King's Mansion, you have to show your skills well! There is no eunuch in the Tianwang Mansion, you have to have a top two, no, a top ......", I don't know what grievances Liu Pozi has against the fact that there are no eunuchs in the Tianwang Mansion, and she always mentions the eunuchs when she opens her mouth and closes her mouth.
Until Mingcuiyuan, Xiaohong was still thinking so, and at the same time she was a little puzzled, seriously speaking, it should be that the king of heaven has some resentment against the eunuchs, right? Not only did he not have a eunuch, but Li Tianwang didn't care about the inner court at all. There are more than ten old gardeners, seventy or eighty maids, thirty or forty female guards in the inner court, not to mention the palace, even ordinary official eunuchs are not so shabby, he is the lord of a country! At the gate of Mingcui Garden, a team of guards was patrolling, and when they saw the person in the lead, Xiaohong sighed: "Gan Jiaotou!?" Didn't you just patrol yesterday? Why are you today? ”
The captain of the lieutenant in the lead was Gan Fengchi, he and Zhou Kunlai had been in prison for more than half a year, Li Xian had already forgotten about them, or the Praetorian Guard Administration, the Military Intelligence Department, and the Heaven and Earth Society followed the disposal procedures, and screened their backgrounds, and felt that there was no harm, and their martial arts were strong and could be fought for, so they talked about the transfer.
Zhou Gan is just a figure in the rivers and lakes, he was originally under the eaves, and when he saw that the conditions offered were difficult to refuse, he lowered his head. Zhou Kunlai suffered a knee injury and was unable to move, but he was familiar with the Jianghu affairs on the ground in Jiangnan and entered the Jiangnan helm of the Heaven and Earth Society. Gan Fengchi's martial arts aroused Yan Sanniang's curiosity, not that she had just given birth to a daughter, her body had not recovered, and she still had the heart to learn from him. In the end, Yu Hanyi and Luo Tangyuan sent their subordinates to fight, but they were all defeated, so they were recruited into the Praetorian Guard and served as the captain of the lieutenant and the head of the martial arts instructor.
Seeing that it was Xiaohong, the guards stopped walking and saluted, and Gan Fengchi also arched his hand and said: "Miss Xiaohong, today is my last day in the guard, so I took my brothers to patrol the last shift." Well, yes, I'm leaving the Praetorian Guard, and I wanted to be able to do more outside, so I moved to Commander Luo......"
Xiaohong smiled: "It's over, there is another cat in the cat nest." ”
Saying goodbye to Gan Fengchi's team of guards, Xiaohong sighed, and suddenly thought of Yan Sanniang's melancholy, "We women are always different from men......"
Throwing away the touch, Xiaohong entered Mingcui Garden, and the little maid greeted her with six cars, and she could hear the ghost's might, she shook her head helplessly: "Miss is sick, ah, it's not a serious illness, it's just that I don't have the spirit to see people." Sister Hong came just in time, so she had time to help my young lady ask for leave from the king. ”
Although the purpose was not achieved, at least it was confirmed that Duan Yuyou was fine, and Xiaohong left with confidence. When Xiaohong's figure disappeared, Liuche shouted angrily towards the huddled quilt in the back room: "Miss! You can solve the problem just by sleeping!? I estimate that Yan Niangniang will come in person in the afternoon, see how you deal with it! ”
A mournful and irritable voice rang out: "Don't disturb my dreams! No, it's a dream, a nightmare! ”
Liuche entered the house and pushed his own young lady angrily: "What's so bad about being a princess, since the king of heaven has said it, as long as you have a name, you will give him a name, and then use this name to ask him to contribute money and strength to build a academy for you, buy books, and even build you a house like a grass hall, and you will shrink in it and study for a lifetime, how good?" ”
The quilt was lifted up, revealing a red and swollen face crying, Duan Yuyou said hatefully: "If it was before, he really thought I was the one who wanted to marry him, and he talked to me well, and offered a bunch of conditions, I would have thrown myself into his arms on the spot, but now I ......"
Her face turned bad, like a cat pounced on by a dog: "He treats me like that, and he clearly doesn't think I'm a human!" He wants to marry me, I can't escape, so let him marry Lin Daiyu! ”
Duan Yuyou also knew who Lin Daiyu was from Liuche's mouth, and Liuche also listened to Xiaohong, Xiaohong listened to Yan Sanniang, and Yan Sanniang listened to Li Shi's occasional chatter. Let's just say that Lin Daiyu is a harmful spirit who specializes in annoying, crying at every turn, especially destroying the atmosphere, so Duan Yuyou feels that it is a kind of revenge to make Li Shi annoy when he sees her. Liuche looked at his young lady, and tears dripped down in a row, and he felt that the young lady was so bitter.
Thousands of miles away, in Shilucheng, Ru An was also teary-eyed, hugging her own young lady and crying, not only crying, but her face was also full of iron and blue, and her whole body was soft, and she didn't go to the ground when she climbed Ru Xi's body.
"Stand up straight! See what happened to them! See their blood clearly! That is the blood shed by our banner people, and one day, I will be happy...... Will claim it back a hundredfold! ”
Ru Xi stood straight, his eyes looking straight ahead, and his words were like the cold wind in the empty mountains, low and penetrating. In the distance ahead, hundreds of people knelt on the ground with their hands and feet tied, and behind each person stood two or three people, all holding a steel knife in their hands, many of them trembling in their hands, and the sound of small crumbling was all in one. , with an order, even if the person who raised the knife trembled hard, he did not hesitate at all, and swung the knife downward, and the sound of puff sounded, hundreds of strands of plasma splattered, and hundreds of heads rolled and collided on the ground. At that moment, Ru Xi's body also shook suddenly, and then Ru An on her body, she struggled to stand firm, and then, her face was calm, and when the blood and water fell to the ground, something in her heart completely dissipated.
"Miss Ruxi, I hope to carry more in front of the King of Heaven in the future."
Gui Zhen came over, lowered his eyebrows and said pleasing to his eyes, with a hint of tremor in his words, but after a few words, he became extremely fluent, which was also a mastery of unloading some mental defense.
"Where, I have to take care of ...... Lord Gui"
Ru Xi smiled slightly, ignoring the slaughterhouse-like scene in front of her.
"Ah, it's been almost two years, and I can finally leave this hellish place!"
Gui Zhen crossed his waist and sighed to this new city.
"yes, finally left ......"
Ru Xi also muttered to himself in a low voice.
Although leaving was what she wanted, the reason why she was able to leave was the last thing she wanted to see.
The emperor was defeated, and the Qing Dynasty was defeated. When the news first came, she didn't want to believe it. The emperor has been in the palace for more than 50 years, and he has been personally recruited by half of the country's soldiers, how can he be defeated? It must be the rumor that Li was defeated and spread for the sake of the rear.
But when a string of captives were escorted to Shilu City, there were thousands of people, and there was no shortage of leaders and even first-level masters, she finally believed it. When she reprimanded the captives, she inquired about the general situation of the matter, and felt that the sky was falling apart. The Qing Dynasty was defeated, and the defeat was a complete mess, the 200,000 army was almost completely annihilated, and not only these people were captured, but tens of thousands of Han Chinese were taken to Nanyang.
But she quickly composed, and at this point, she had no choice but to move forward. So she found Feng Jingyao, the magistrate of Changjiang, and she knew that this magistrate was not only a civil official, but also a member of the Praetorian Guard.
Feng Jingyao followed Gui Zhen to meet her, and was not surprised that Gui Zhen chose her at all, she also came with Gui Zhen's general intentions, at least on the surface, that is, to sue more than 400 banner people for plotting rebellion, but she has a lot more control than Gui Zhen, and the list is all in her hands, and no one will be left behind.
So the more than 400 bannermen who had been instigated by her before were captured in one fell swoop, and just now, more than 1,000 bannermen who hoped to join the Anglo-Chinese army were personally executed.
Feng Jingyao asked curiously before, no matter whether the front line is won or lost, the banner people can't make any noise in this Qiongzhou, more than 700 people have been killed before, why do they still want to incite them. She replied that no matter whether they win or lose, this group of banner people in Qiongzhou must be cleaned up again, otherwise the king of heaven will not worry about using them.
At that time, Feng Jingyao's face was very exciting, and Ru Xi believed that he would pass this on to Li Xi, so that Li Xi would be interested in meeting her. As long as she can meet, as long as she can meet, she has a chance.
There is already a double-line cement track from Shilu to Tieshi Port, and the 200-mile track is paved straight, and the corpses of thousands of banner laborers are buried on the side of the road. Four horses could pull seven or eight carts, some loaded with ore, others with people.
Sitting in a carriage, Ru An asked nervously, "Miss, what will the King of Heaven do with us?" ”
Ru Xi smiled: "No matter how we deal with it, as long as we can stay by his side, we will succeed." ”
Her eyes flashed with a frenzied light: "Look at all this in front of you, and then set foot in Guangzhou, you will see more earth-shaking and incredible changes, he is not a mortal!" Because of this, he doesn't understand how deep a woman's hatred is! I don't understand that I, Ruxi, will be desperate for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, unscrupulous means, and even change my true heart, only hiding that little sprout. If it is at the right time, even if it takes ten, twenty, or even thirty years, I can wait! Until I have enough power to destroy this new world he has created! Help our world! ”
Ru An was frightened by the inexplicable fanaticism in her eyes, and muttered, "Miss, so ...... Why do you have to take on such a great thing? Even the emperor ......"
Ru Xi said in a deep voice: "This is a matter of destined blood, I have the blood of Maltai, and the surname of Maltai can be traced back to Haixi Hulun, after the royal family!" My father can't afford the responsibility of this bloodline, so I'll come! It's not just me, I believe that the fourth master is also carrying it, he must be dripping blood in his heart at this moment, he needs someone to help, he can't be alone. ”
Ru An was also moved: "I am Ma Jia's family, I also have the responsibility of bloodline, the fourth master is not alone, he still has you, Miss you are not alone, you still have me...... But since Li Xi is not a mortal, how can we attract his attention? ”
Ru Xi took her hand and whispered confidently, "He is indeed not mortal, but he still has weaknesses. I read the newspaper for a year and finally saw it. Now that we have the opportunity to meet him, that's proof. ”
Looking out of the window, the speeding scenery in the distance, the mountains remain the same, the clouds and mist remain the same, the sky does not change, Ru Xi sneered: "He is still a little curious, and at the same time, he ...... He also has a habit of cleanliness. (To be continued) [This text is provided by the Ghost of Sailing]
