Chapter 291: The Calm Before the Storm

It was getting late, and Chen Xu walked home as usual.!

Walking to the door of the house, looking at the familiar door, he sighed deeply, tomorrow morning, he will leave the house and go to Deshengmen to "wait for the rabbit". In the face of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, Chen Xu was iron-blooded and strong, but he was not without apprehension in his heart, although he had made a lot of preparations these days, this was his first time on the real battlefield after all.

Everyone's first time will inevitably have a nervous relationship.

The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, the battle is open, whether it is victory or defeat, it is inevitable that there will be a river of blood and corpses all over the field outside the nine gates of the capital, in the past and present life, Chen Xu is used to seeing life and death, he thought that his heart was as solid as a rock, but with the footsteps across the door, he actually felt a little sad.

He has parents, wives and children, and the soldiers also have parents, wives and children, think about what he said at the meeting, the general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned in ten years, but how many people will return? The sky was dark and the wind was blowing, and Chen Xu felt a chill spread in his heart......

"My lord, I want to join the army."

A thunderous voice interrupted Chen Xu's reverie, and the next moment, Dong Daxing's burly figure appeared in front of him.

"Your injuries healed?" Chen Xu glanced at Dong Daxing and asked.

"Okay, it's all right, my lady wants me to thank the adults for saving my life in person."

Dong Daxing said that he wanted to kowtow to Chen Xu. Chen Xu stretched out his hand to support his arm, and Dong Daxing, who was as strong as a donkey, couldn't kneel. Dong Daxing is no longer the "Wuxia Ameng" of the past, during the period of recuperation, he directly or indirectly heard a lot of rumors about Chen Xu, especially what made his blood boil was that Chen Xu led hundreds of people to gallop across the grassland outside the Saiwai - to take the head of the Arazhiyuan and save the life of the orthodox emperor, and by the way, it made tens of thousands of cavalry in Wara suspicious.

Dong Daxing and his wife "analyzed" Chen Xu's role in the battle, thinking about his small body, he thought that he relied on his brain to eat, but now he suddenly realized that Master Chen is not only good at his mind, but also his skills should not be bad, but I don't know if he can beat himself......

"I want to follow the saddled horse and kill the enemy to serve the country." Dong Daxing repeated persistently.

Chen Xu frowned. Dong Daxing's idea is of course excellent, but it is extremely stupid to put it into action at this time. Chen Xu did not doubt that Dong Daxing would grow into a fierce general after rigorous training, but now he is a complete recruit.

The nature of a recruit's egg going to the battlefield is similar to that of a virgin entering the cave room, not only is it not easy to stab the target, but it is also fucking prone to premature ejaculation. Chen Xu knew that many people would die after tomorrow. But he also wants these people to die well. Like Dong Daxing, who is purely practicing for the enemy, he disapproves of one hundred and twenty people in his heart.

"You have a reason to convince me."

Dong Daxing is not good at words, especially when he is asked, he is anxious. The mouth is prone to stuttering. Dong Daxing lowered his head and looked around the corner, Chen Xu followed his gaze, he saw a pretty figure, he knew that it was Dong Daxing's wife, Tan's family, and the young woman who was knowledgeable.

"What? This kind of thing also needs your lady to help you decide? Chen Xu's voice was not loud but it was enough to reach Tan's ears, "I suddenly thought of a poem. The young woman in the boudoir didn't know how to worry, and she went to the green building in the spring, and suddenly saw the willow color of the strange head, and the penitent husband was looking for the marquis. ”

"Huh? What does it mean?! Dong Daxing said blankly.

Chen Xu looked at Dong Daxing's expression, he had a kind of sadness for Niu playing the piano, fortunately there was still one hiding not far away, otherwise his "famous sentence through the ages" would definitely be a pearl.

Tan knew that Chen Xu was speaking to her, and she walked over with small steps while savoring the grievances in the poem.

"The folk woman has seen Lord Shangshu." Tan lowered his head and blessed Chen Xu.

"I advocate the rise and fall of the nation, but I don't advocate the kind of speculation that treats war as a stepping stone. It's a gamble that doesn't win much. Chen Xu shook his head, "You are literate and hyphenated, and you know far more truths than him, so enlighten him well at night." ”

Chen Xu pointed at Dong Daxing and said, stop. He strode toward the inner courtyard.

The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and since she heard the news that the army has gone south, Chen Ying'er seems to have hidden fifteen buckets in her heart, and she is terrified. Chen Xu was busy with official business. Zhou Qian has been accompanying Chen Ying'er every day these days, watching him take care of his mother. Most of the resentment against him in Chen Xu's heart melted away.

"Xu'er, will the war really start?" Chen Ying'er hugged her grandson and asked her son, Qingtan sat next to Chen Ying'er, she also had a sad expression.

Chen Xu nodded, he wanted to make up a white lie, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say it. Zhou Qian suddenly comforted Chen Ying'er and said, "Ying'er, you don't have to worry, Xu'er is the commander of the whole army, and he doesn't need to charge into battle at all." ”

"yes, yes." Chen Xu nodded hurriedly, "My duty is to command the army to fight with people, which is called strategizing and winning thousands of miles away." ”

Chen Xu said this, Chen Ying'er believed it, Qiu Yue believed it, Xiao Yi believed it, but Qingtan was a little skeptical.

"Childe, the nine gates of the capital can be the target of the first attack, how do you divide the troops......

Qingtan wanted to ask which gate you want to guard, but Chen Xu decisively interrupted her and said, "What about Meng Yao?" Why didn't you see her? ”

Qiu Yue told her that Meng Yao was fiddling with the computer in the room, and Chen Xu told her mother to go see Meng Yao, and he pulled Qingtan and walked out. Qingtan had just come out of confinement, and before going out, Chen Xu deliberately tucked her placket, and then held her soft hair in her sleeve.

"Childe, Qingtan is a little worried."

Chen Xu didn't speak, and walked into Meng Yao's room, he first closed the door, then lifted the Qingtan shirt, and slapped the ass with two slaps.

"Don't talk about work at home in the future."

Qing Tanjiao snorted, and when she heard Chen Xu's words, she became more and more worried.

Xing'er saw Chen Xu and the two enter the door, she stood up nervously, "Father... Childe, you... How do you come... Here it comes? ”

Chen Xu was stunned by Xing'er's question, did he have to ask someone for instructions and find the relevant departments for approval when he came to his wife's room? It doesn't make sense.

"Apricot, what's wrong with you? Nervous about what? Qingtan was also surprised, this girl obviously wanted to drive her son out, which didn't match Sister Mengyao's temperament.

"Ah, no... It's nothing," Xing'er saw Chen Xu push open the door, she hurriedly said, "Aunt... Uncle, you can't go in......"

Xing'er's voice landed, and Chen Xu had already pushed open the door. Meng Yao was sitting in front of the dresser fiddling with the notebook, her little face was pale, her forehead was full of cold sweat, and suddenly she heard Chen Xu's voice, she exclaimed "ah" and quickly closed the laptop.

"Phase... Xianggong, you... You... I... I ......"

"There are ghosts!" Chen Xu looked at Meng Yao in confusion, and Qing Tan also said, "Sister Meng Yao, what's wrong with you?" Is your face so ugly? ”

Meng Yao pursed her lips, as if she had suddenly made up her mind, she turned around and took out a rattan with the thickness of her thumb and handed it to Chen Xu, and then lay on his lap, "Xianggong, you fight!" ”

Chen Xuru was puzzled by the second monk, "When did you have this bad habit?" ”

"Nope!" Meng Yao lowered her head and said, "You finish the fight first." ”

Chen Xu was speechless, Qingtan was just about to speak, she suddenly grabbed the rattan that Chen Xu put beside her, pinched a sword trick and pointed in the direction of the window and shouted, "Who?" Come out! ”
