Chapter 58
Xu Shouren said in his heart that if he insisted on leaving the table, he was afraid that he would offend these two people and create an obstacle to the release of Bao Hu and the 3,000 Zhou army "quietly and naturally". Besides, these women are indeed different from ordinary vulgar women, all of them are not only handsome, but also have a good temperament, and he can't help but want to listen to their playing.
Seeing that Xu Shouren did not object, he waved his hand from afar, and the guy who ran the hall closed the door and retreated.
The seven or eight women immediately untied their cloaks, Xu Shouren glanced at them, and secretly praised them in his heart, he didn't expect that this person would be so old and still have such a vision, raising such a group of singers with natural beauty. Xu Shouren didn't believe that this was a singer who was summoned at random, and thought that it was a singer who was raised from afar, and this phenomenon also existed in the Ming Kingdom, especially the businessmen who got rich in business in the Ming Kingdom in recent years, competing to raise singers to entertain guests and compare themselves with each other.
At this time, the women put their cloaks on the chairs against the wall in turn, and then turned back and saluted the three again, their movements so neat and their bodies so graceful that they could not take their eyes off it.
Xu Shouren looked at Xiang and Fold the two of them with the corner of his eye, Xiang Xun was a little stunned, and his eyes swept to Fold Congyuan, and they collided with the eyes that Fold Congyuan swept from, and the two of them were shocked, but their faces did not show it, and they gently bowed their heads to each other, all without saying anything.
Flawless from afar, he took care of the seven or eight women, and when he saw Xu Shouren coming, he squinted his eyes and smiled at Xu Shouren.
In this situation, Xu Shouren is in a dilemma. But reason told him that in order to "stay in danger, you should sit still." Play it cool. ”
So, Xu Shouren smiled incomprehensibly and picked up the tea bowl in front of him. Lift the lid and gently blow on the floating tea leaves and take a leisurely sip.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhi Congyuan nodded to one of the singers, and the woman had already understood, and lightly opened her lips and said, "Please General Xu to order the song." ”
Xu Shouren, who bowed his head and tasted tea, said unexpectedly: "No need to order, just come." It's just fun. ”
Hearing Xu Shouren say this, the woman couldn't help but be a little disappointed. The other women also took out their musical instruments and sat aside. One by one, the jade fingers are lightly opened, the cherry lips are slightly opened, the bounce is played, and the blow is blown. In an instant. This natural center is overflowing with melodious music.
Zhi Congyuan has long been accustomed to this. He peeked at Xu Shouren again, and saw that Xu Shouren looked intoxicated, closed his eyes slightly, and gently slapped his hand on the table, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart: No wonder the ancients said that "heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass", after all, they can't escape this "fat powder trap", if you eat this set, then things will be easy to do.
Fold from afar by Xu Shouren is in high spirits. Quietly stepped forward and asked in Xu Shouren's ear, "General Xu's family is in Jinling?" ”
Xu Shouren didn't open his eyes. Nodding slightly.
Zhi saw that there was a door from a distance, and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said: "Oh, General Xu is busy with military affairs, and it is okay when he is fighting, but now he has been stationed in Pizhou for several months, and there is no wife and concubine around him who knows how to know cold and hot, how can he afford it?" In this way, a certain person is a landlord, and he does his best to do his part, General Xu sees which of these women is more pleasing to the eye, so he accepts a concubine, which can be regarded as a home in Pizhou, which is more convenient. ”
At this time, Xu Shouren opened his eyes, glanced at him from afar, and immediately understood in his heart: This old thief is trying to pull me into the trap! Maybe it's tempting me. Presumably, it was for the capture of the 3,000 Zhou army, but since the emperor had decided to release him, he would take this opportunity to give it to him without a trace.
Thinking of this, Xu Shouren said: "The handsome and beautiful intentions of the festival, Shouren has received it, but there is already a wife in the family, if you marry a singer as a concubine, I am afraid that it will make people laugh, and it will also be a negative grace." ”
"Hey, General Xu's words are wrong. As a general, it is common to have three wives and four concubines, could it be that General Xu thinks that the women in my Bizhou are not beautiful enough? Can't get into the eyes of the general? From the foresight Xu Shouren took out the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom as a shield, and then jokingly, after speaking, his eyes looked at Xu Shouren with bad intentions.
Xu Shouren was a little unhappy in his heart, you have already passed the age of sixtieth, and you are still so disrespectful, so he teased: "Where." Song Jiaoren just didn't want to take away the love of the festival commander! ”
This is a bit heavy, pointing out that these women are raised from afar. Fold Congyuan touched a nose of ash, and he was so angry in his heart. I thought: Okay, you Xu Shouren, the old man is kind enough to slap you, but you don't have eyes, your nose is not your nose, and the old man is no longer waiting.
Zhi Congyuan's eyes looked at Xiang Xun who was staring at the singer, Xiang Xun wanted to pretend to be infatuated with the beauty of the singer, and let Zhi Congyuan do what he was going to do, and he didn't have to open his mouth, but he didn't want to, Zhi Congyuan was pushed back by Xu Shouren, and it seemed that he had to go out by himself.
Xiang Xun didn't want to talk about the singer anymore, but raised his glass to Xu Shouren and said, "Brother Xu, call you brother, don't you mind?" ”
Xu Shouren actually regretted it a little in his heart, and finally had a chance to send the Zhou army prisoners out, but he was blocked back by his own words, no matter what, it was always good to fold Congyuan, but it was really hard to apologize at the moment, and as soon as he apologized, it was a little inexplicable, making people think that he wanted to accept this singer as a concubine.
Seeing Xiang Xun's invitation to raise a glass, Xu Shouren said: "Xiang Du Jian is polite, you and I are acquaintances, and we are fighting side by side, calling brothers, it is natural, come, fold the handsome, drink this cup together." ”
Xu Shouren took the initiative to say hello, and the unhappiness in his heart was much less, he stood up with a smile on his face, and the three of them drank a toast together.
Xiang Xun saw that Xu Shouren did not look angry, and personally poured Xu Shouren full of wine and said: "Brother Xu, the grace of saving your life, Xun always remembers it, but this time I came to the intention, I think Brother Xu also knows that Zhou and Ming belong to the alliance, and my emperor and the emperor of Ming are righteous brothers, so I won't go around in circles, Brother Xu will make a condition." ”
Xu Shouren saw that Xiang Xun was straight to the point, and said in his heart that this would be easier to do, Xu Shouren said with a straight face: "Everything else is easy to say, but the so-called killing pays for life, the four lives of the special combat army, Xiang Qincha always has to give an explanation." ”
Xiang Xun hesitated for a moment and said: "Brother Xu, in the chaos of the army, casualties are inevitable, for the sake of the friendship between the two countries, why don't you and I turn the big things into small things and small things." ”
Xu Shouren smiled and shook his head, no longer speaking.
Zhi Congyuan interjected from the side: "General Xu, if you tell me your requirements, if Qincha can be the master, this matter can also be brought to an end, if Qincha can't be the master, we can also make it clear to the emperor, and the emperor will make the decision." The daily expenses of 3,000 soldiers are not a small amount, and General Xu cannot be burdened. (To be continued......)
