Chapter 121: Additional Gains
When Fei **, as the vanguard army, was unhurriedly chasing the rebel army of Li Shen, the king of Qin, at a place about half a day's distance from this army of soldiers and horses, a group of people was climbing the top of what seemed to be the highest mountain nearby.
A group of more than ten people, led by the Great Zhou Jijing Imperial Court Criminal Department of the Shangshu Order, and the Zhou army commander Xie An, who also rebelled against the king in the south, followed by Qin Ke'er, Liu Qing, Gou Gong, Ding Qiu and other cadres
This time it was not to find out the situation of the enemy army, but Xie An purely wanted to feel the wonderful snow scene in Jingzhou, after all, Jingzhou has many mountains and rivers, once covered with white snow, it is obviously more gorgeous than the far north. Of course, in fact, Xie An has never seen the snow scene in northern Xinjiang.
"Whew, that's a ......"
Standing on the top of a mountain, Xie An stretched out his arms and breathed in the clear air, although the air seemed to be carrying tiny ice particles in the air almost wax moon, and it was inevitable that he would freeze to his throat when he breathed, but this did not hinder Xie An's interest.
And beside Xie An, Qin Ke'er was wearing a brocade robe, half-leaning next to her beloved man, her little face flushed, and she seemed to be enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of her. It is no wonder, after all, it is said that Jingzhou is the most wonderful place in the world, and now that the snow is heavy, everything in the world is dressed in silver, which makes this picturesque scenery even more fascinating, and people can't help but feel the wonder of all kinds of creations in the world.
In contrast, the interest of the Dongling and Jinling assassins such as Gou Gong and Ding Qiu was naturally inferior to Xie An and Qin Ke'er. Gou Gong is good to say, this guy is actually quite talented, watching him shake his head with a golden fan in his hand, and chant a few poetic poems from time to time, but he is also quite similar to those merry sons of Jijing. But it's hard for others to say, even Ding Qiu is like a piece of wood at the moment, and he hasn't held back a few lines of poetry that can be compared with Gou Gong for a long time, let alone others.
Either way, these people were able to grasp the beauty of the scenery - if Xiao Li's wide-eyed, yelling reckless man was still enjoying the scenery.
But there are exceptions, for example, the current Zhou Army's three military divisions who have been with a straight face since mountaineering, Heavenly Ji Liu Qing.
“… Glancing at Xie An and Qin Ke'er, who seemed to be concubines, Liu Qing was sincerely displeased.
Compared with seeing Xie An hugging Qin Ke'er talking and laughing, Liu Qing was even more annoyed that Xie An didn't pay attention to the current situation.
Obviously at the critical moment of chasing King Qin's Baishui Army, this guy actually had the leisure to go out to play in the mountains and rivers・・・・・・
Yes, I promised you that I would help you destroy the rebels, but you are also a little nervous, okay? The dignified commander of the first army, leaving the army on the way, and taking a group of henchmen up the mountain to enjoy the snow scene, what is this?
Seeing Xie An and Qin Ke'er's happy appearance, Liu Qing's little face was tense, even Xiao Li, a reckless man, could see that this young female military advisor must be in an extremely bad mood at the moment.
"Ahem!" Just when Liu Qing was secretly discussing to himself, Xie An in front of him pretended to cough, looking at his appearance, it seemed that he wanted to do something.
What does he want to do?
Although she was full of inexplicable resentment towards Xie An, Liu Qing's attention was still attracted, after all, she knew that that guy would always do something unreasonable. It is precisely because of this that even the strange women with superior wisdom such as the elder Sun Xiangyu also have a deep affection for this man.
Under the attention of everyone, Xie An raised his hands to his mouth and played an extremely childish game.
"Wow!!"
"Wow!!" The mountains responded to Xie An's call and brought the echo back.
“… Pinching the bridge of her nose, Liu Qing suddenly felt very tired.
This is the Great Zhou Jijing Imperial Court Criminal Department, the Department of Shangshu Ling, a first-class sage in the court, a very human minister... ・・・
"Woo-!!"
"Woo-!!"
"Hahaha-!!"
"Hah!!"
Just when Xie An was playing, Qin Ke'er beside him also giggled.
What's so funny about that?
Liu Qing, whose whole face was almost half black, glanced at the crazy man and woman in front of him with an incredulous gaze, and finally couldn't help but say to Xie An, "Do you dare to be a little more boring?" ”
"Isn't it right to learn what I speak?" Xie An turned around when he heard this, and made a postmodern gesture that seemed very handsome, but the effect was not very good, because looking at Liu Qing's expression, this little girl was almost crazy.
But somehow, Liu Qing's face was a little red, maybe it was because of the cold, maybe it was because of the cold, maybe she did unconsciously learn Xie An's tone.
As the eldest grandson Xiangyu said before, Xie An usually has a slight sense of humor in his tone, which is also one of the things she is interested in, in fact, among the people next to Xie An, there are many people who consciously or unconsciously learn Xie An's tone.
Of course, Liu Qing would never admit this, although she also found Xie An's tone quite interesting.
"It took half an hour to go up the mountain, just to shout a few words about the game that only children will be interested in? ―Hold on when you're full! Liu Qing gritted her teeth and cursed.
"Of course not! ――How can this house learn the childish games of this world? It's just a hot field! ”
"Oh?" The look of anger on Liu Qing's face faded slightly, and she looked at Xie An with interest.
And at this moment, I saw Xie An take a deep breath and shouted loudly towards the mountains,
"Who is my son?"
"I-!!" Xie An's echo came from among the mountains.
"Who is my grandson?"
"I-!!"
"......" Liu Qing opened her mouth, dumbfounded.
Behind her, Gou Gong, Ding Qiu and other assassins burst into laughter, raising their thumbs one by one and applauding them. As the initiator, Xie An was certainly laughing, but beside him, Qin Ke'er was even more trembling!
Only Liu Qing ......
She's already stupid.
"How?" Xie An squeezed his eyes at Liu Qing rather proudly, making the latter feel the urge to take off his boots and slap him in the face.
"High, really high!" Clapping her hands perfunctorily, Liu Qing expressed her opinion on this expressionlessly. For Xie An, who is not serious on weekdays, she can be regarded as a teacher again, and she finally understands why the eldest grandson Xiangyu and this man can come together.
The reason is simple, both of them have a problem with their brains!
"What's wrong?" Probably noticing Liu Qing's indifferent expression, Xie An asked suspiciously.
“… Glancing at Xie An deeply, Liu Qing took a light breath and asked in an inexplicable tone, "That's it?" ――Spend half an hour going up the mountain, just to shout such a sentence? ”
"yes, isn't that interesting?" Xie An's face was taken for granted.
Interesting?
I can't wait to squirt you to death with a mouthful of water!
Do you know how cold it can be over here?
Glaring at Xie An with hatred, Liu Qing turned his head and ignored him.
What surprised Liu Qing was that the entourage behind Xie An also played this kind of game that seemed unreasonable to her.
Naturally, the first one was Xiao Li's reckless man from Jinling, but one after another, even the assassins of Dongling were a little unable to control it, and then later, even Ding Qiu and Gou Gong, two guys who were also known as leaders and faces in Jijing, actually played.
"The upper beam is not right, the lower beam is crooked・・・・・・" Liu Qing muttered in a low voice, but her gaze frequently swept towards Xiao Li and the others who were standing on the top of the mountain shouting, and there was a slight look of impatience in her eyes.
It's no wonder that after all, she is also a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and she is the age when she likes to play the most, and now she can bear to bump into such an interesting thing, it's just that she doesn't want to be in the same league with Xie An's unscrupulous guys.
But......
Biting her lip slightly, Liu Qing looked at Xiao Li and the others with a little envy in her eyes.
"Why don't you try it?" A seductive voice came from beside her, and Xie An had stood beside her at some point.
When did he come over?
A hint of panic flashed faintly in Liu Qing's eyes when she looked at Xie An, she was afraid that the envy in Fang Cai's eyes would be seen by him.
"Whew!" I don't know if I noticed the vigilance in Liu Qing's eyes, Xie An shrugged his shoulders, stretched his arms, and said with a smile, "After shouting, I immediately felt refreshed...... Sure enough, if you have been depressed for a long time, you have to have some fun, otherwise, people will be suffocated! As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Qing intentionally or unintentionally.
For Liu Qing, in terms of knowledge, Xie An is extremely recognized, after all, Liu Qing is a wise man who can be compared to the eldest grandson Xiangyu, and for Liu Qing's loyalty, the war a while ago has fully proved that the worries of some Great Liang Army generals are superfluous, but this does not mean that Xie An no longer needs to worry about Liu Qing.
Whether it is the eldest grandson Xiangyu or Liu Qing, these two women will often drill the tip of the horns, and for some things that they can't figure out, they will guess and guess without thinking until the doubt in their hearts is eliminated.
Compared with the eldest grandson Xiangyulai, Liu Qing's attitude towards business is more focused, which may be related to the fact that she once desperately wanted to use her talents to prove to Liang Qiuhao that she is no longer a child. She curbed the playful nature in her heart, was in a state of mental tension for a long time, and didn't know what relaxation was, which was one of the places where she was not as good as her eldest grandson Xiangyu.
When the eldest grandson Xiangyu feels bored, she will use pranks to relieve her boredom, although the pranks she came up with are really terrifying, but it is undeniable that at least it is better to channel than to block, if you have been in a depressed state on weekdays, it is the worst-, after all, the eldest grandson Xiangyu has the wisdom to subvert the entire country.
But Liu Qing is different, she strives to do her best when she is by Liang Qiuhao's side, she wants to use her talents to prove to Liang Qiuhao that she is a better woman than her mother, no matter what grievances she has on weekdays, she always hides in her heart and does not talk to outsiders, and over time, she has become what she is now, obviously she is only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, but she is more mature than her eldest grandson Xiangyu, who is seven years older than her. Of course, this refers to the eldest grandson Xiangyu who is not serious like Xie An, and once he gets serious, the eldest grandson Xiangyu is definitely not inferior to the backer of Liangqiu Dance.
“… Looking at Xie An's seemingly calm eyes, a faint worry flashed, Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, she was very smart, how could she not understand Xie An's real purpose of coming to the mountain this time
This guy ......
What a small look......
It's just that I haven't slept for a night or two and is thinking about the purpose of the White Water Army, is it necessary to make such a fuss?
When I was at Hukou earlier, you didn't sleep well for four or five nights・・・・・・
“… ・・・Don't! After hesitating for a while, Liu Qing shook her head with difficulty.
"Why? Interesting, isn't it? Xie An continued to tempt.
“… Taking a deep breath, Liu Qing shook his head and whispered with a little resentment, "I'm not a child, don't treat me as a child..."
Yes, Liu Qing never considered herself a child, even though she was really young.
"Isn't it good to ・・・・・・ children?" Intentionally or unintentionally dispersing the surrounding assassins who were acting as guards, Xie An stood on the top of the mountain with his hands behind his back and asked in a flat tone.
"How can it be ・・・・・・" A trace of bitterness flashed on Liu Qing's face, she couldn't help but think of a few years ago, thinking of Liang Qiuhao, thinking of Yang Yu, she knew very well that if it weren't for the strong support of Liang Qiuhao and Yang Yu, with her age, it would be absolutely impossible to become the real ruler of the Taiping Army for a time.
It's not that there are no capable people in the Taiping army, at least that Wu Heng is an excellent superior, as the son of the first deputy marshal, he showed excellent leadership skills at a young age, and it is just that he and Liang Qiuhao check and balance each other, and it is difficult to oversee power.!
Liu Qing knows very well the bottom line of her talents, even if she has studied the art of war since she was a child, it is nothing more than outstanding in military strategy and resourcefulness, compared to the eldest grandson Xiangyu, who was born in the Prime Minister's mansion, has read hundreds of books since childhood, more often, she needs to explore by herself, so how can she be as good as Wu Heng in the year of establishment?
In the past, when he was in the Taiping Army, Liang Qiuhao was in charge of military strategy and Wu Heng was in charge of internal affairs, although the relationship between the two was not good, it was undeniable that it was precisely because of these two people that Liu Qing was able to support more than 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands of Taiping troops at the age of more than ten years. And now, Liang Qiuhao died in battle, Wu Heng defected, and looking at the people around Liu Qing, only Qi Zhi, one of the six god generals, remained.
Perhaps, this is the reason why Liu Qing wants to become stronger and stronger, but this is exactly not what Xie An wants to see, after all, everyone understands the truth of pulling seedlings to grow, even if Liu Qing follows the back of the eldest grandson Xiangyu to grow up, she is nothing more than another eldest grandson Xiangyu, not to mention, she may not be able to reach the height of the eldest grandson Xiangyu.
"Yes・・・・・・ Xie An smacked his lips, looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance and said slowly, "To be honest, your concept is not unusual, children, always want to grow up ・・・・・・"
"I'm not a child!" Liu Qing whispered with a little anger.
Glancing at Liu Qing, Xie An said lightly, "Just because you are angry about this sentence, you dare to say that you are not a child?" ”
"I ......" Liu Qing was speechless and had no way to justify.
Raising his hand and patting Liu Qing's head gently, Xie An said in a low voice, "Do you know what it means to really grow up?" ”
Liu Qing was a little anti-thankful for An's seemingly appeasing behavior, but when she heard this, her whole mind couldn't help but be attracted, and she couldn't help asking, "What?" ”
"Guess what!"
"When you're responsible?" Liu Qing asked tentatively.
"Guess again!"
Frowning, Liu Qing continued to speculate, "Is it when you are entangled in many things? ”
"It's when you don't want to know the answer to that question anymore!" Glancing at Liu Qing, Xie An said with a straight face, "More precisely, it's when you don't have time to think about this kind of problem anymore!" ”
"What is this?" Liu Qing glanced at Xie An suspiciously, and said with some annoyance, "You are fooling me? ”
"Hahaha!" Xie An smiled when he heard this, as if he couldn't resist Liu Qing's indignant gaze, and raised his hands as if begging for mercy, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you the truth, the so-called adults, you have to be able to afford to put it down・・・・・・ can you do it?" ”
"Of course I can!"
"Oh? Really? Xie An glanced at Liu Qing with a smile, and suddenly grinned and said, "If you go and shout what I just shouted, I will admit that you are an adult!" ”
“… Liu Qing's face turned red when she heard this, after all, Xie An's two sentences were quite unbearable.
"What? Don't you dare? Xie An grinned and used the agitation method.
"Humph! Put away your superficial agitation, shame on you! - Just go! Liu Qing glared at Xie An angrily, ran to the top of the mountain, and shouted his two words again in Xie An's tone, only to hear the assassins around the ground laugh and applaud again and again.
What? 丨
Liu Qing demonstrated to Xie An with a smug look.
Knowing that it is a radical method, but still obediently obeying, dare to say that it is not a child? - Well, he's just a smart kid! 丨
Xie An chuckled and shook his head, raising a thumbs up to Liu Qing as a recognition of her courage.
Catching a glimpse of Liu Qingxiao's face slightly red, and with great interest, Xiao Li and the other assassins shouted a lot of words that sounded quite unbearable to outsiders towards the deep mountain, Xie An smiled slightly and looked up at the clear sky.
It's all right, uncle? 丨
With Liang Qiuhao's relationship, Xie An hopes that Liu Qing can follow her original life trajectory, although he really needs Liu Qing's wisdom to help him exterminate the rebels.
Because of this, seeing Liu Qing's hard thinking about how to catch up with and exterminate the White Water Army in the past few days, calculating all kinds of uncertain factors that may occur during the period, calculating that he was not thinking about tea and dinner, and worried, Xie An brought Liu Qing to this mountain in the name of wanting to distract himself. Although I am afraid that there is only less than half a day to spare, Xie An still hopes that Liu Qing can temporarily put aside the troubles in her heart, recover her mental temperament that is in line with her current age, and relax well.
Although it is Jingzhou, it is still a desolate Jingshan and Jingshan area, and Xie An can only think of this way to relieve boredom.
Just when Xie An secretly sighed, suddenly, there was a snapping sound not far away, Xie An took a look, and found that a large piece of snow had slid down the foot of the mountain.
"Wow! It's a dangerous way to relieve boredom...... What are you doing with all that shouting? Didn't you know it would cause an avalanche? - Well, I'm afraid these people really don't know・・・・・・"
Xie An glanced at the unconscious people not far away with some fear, especially Liu Qing, who was reluctant just now, but was playing with it at the moment.
Suddenly, Xie An's face changed slightly, and he looked intently at the snow-capped mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles in the distance.
"Won't it?"
As if thinking of something, Xie An narrowed his eyes, and there was a bit of surprise in his eyes.
Wait a minute......
If so......
I see!
