Episode 29 Night visit to the princess's mansion

In the evening, Xiang Xiaoqiang invited Stomachache, Song Ruhai, Sun Jiye, and Wang Hexiang to go out together, found a secluded restaurant, and talked to them about the next step, that is, the establishment of a new department, and new personnel arrangements.

Of course, the stomach ache is already known, but this guy still pretends to have just heard about it, pretending to be quite talented, and looks sincerely afraid, afraid that Princess Liaoyang will come and wronged her by his subordinates. Xiang Xiaoqiang also cooperated with him as usual, and was relieved and persuaded again.

The three old men were very happy, they thought that they would be very good to "exert their spare heat" and be able to give a staff officer or something, but they never expected that they would be able to become commanders. For a while, the mood in the private room was high.

Xiang Xiaoqiang was also very happy. Although he hadn't yet consulted Fourteen Gege, he knew that Fourteen Gege would only be happy. She was also extremely depressed when she stayed in the Qingshui Yamen of the political work team, and now she is back to her old job, although it is a deputy position, but Fourteen Gege herself will understand that her deputy position must be more in charge than the main job with a stomachache. Not to mention that it will not be long before she will pull it out alone and form a new "team", and she will be the commander.

With enough wine and food, several people came out satisfied. Xiang Xiaoqiang instructed the two cars to take them home, and then got into his own car and drove back to the headquarters.

……

Enter the headquarters courtyard and get out of the car. On a whim, Xiang Xiaoqiang suddenly looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

The spring breeze at night is warm, and it is very comfortable. The spring breeze not only did not wake up the wine, but blew his wine even stronger.

Xiang Xiaoqiang instructed the driver to go back first, leaned against the big tree next to the road, took out a cigarette and smoked it. The small red dots in the shade of the trees flickered and flickered, and he looked at the small door in the distance to Xiaoqiang.

It stands to reason that he should have gone through that little door and gone back to his house by now. But somehow, tonight he seemed to have a throbbing, and his mind was so excited that he always felt unwilling to go back like that. I always felt like I had to do something.

The two beauties at home, Qiu Yu and Xiuxiu, made him salivate when he thought about it two months ago, but today he doesn't seem to be interested at all.

Xiang Xiaoqiang thought for a while, dropped the cigarette butt, slipped out of the shade of the tree, slipped to the gate, and waved to the guards from afar. The guards hurriedly ran over and stood up and saluted.

"Go and get me your company commander."

Xiang Xiaoqiang commanded.

The guards got the order and ran to the headquarters of the guard company, and soon found the guard company commander Hu Jiong.

Xiang Xiaoqiang looked at no one on the left and right, leaned closer and whispered:

"Now drive out, don't drive my car...... I'll go to Princess Liaoyang's mansion. ”

Hu Jiong is among the lower-level officers of the People's Guard, and he can be regarded as Xiang Xiaoqiang's most confidant. At this moment, I heard the commander's order, and smelled his smell of wine, and I already understood seven or eight points in my heart. Hu Jiong is such a shrewd person, although he usually can't contact these upper-class people, he has long seen that Xiang Xiaoqiang has a very close relationship with Princess Liaoyang, but he has never dared to guess. Looking at Xiaoqiang's appearance today, I also understood in my heart.

But he still had a normal expression, didn't ask a word, nodded and said softly:

"Yes."

Hu Jiong knew that the commander was going to take advantage of the wine and go to Princess Liaoyang for a tryst. You can't bring more people with this kind of thing, and the commander didn't call the usual driver, but called himself, the commander of the guard company, what it means, you have to know in your heart. He was careful, first ran back to the company headquarters, took two box guns and pinned them to his body, and then ran to the garage quickly, picking an ordinary two-row car, which was inconspicuous. Then I simply checked the fuel tank, dashboard, brakes, etc., and then drove it out.

Xiang Xiaoqiang didn't say anything, just got into the car, lay in the back seat, closed his eyes and recuperated.

……

This inconspicuous car roamed around the streets of Nanjing, crossed the streets and alleys, and walked to Qinhuai District in the south of the city in ten minutes.

Although more than two months have passed since the Ming and Qing wars, the Ming Dynasty has not lifted the war mobilization, that is, it is still in a war economy. However, this is limited to the industrial system, and the light and heavy industries of the country are still stepping up the production of war materials, which has stimulated the already sluggish economy. Unemployment is declining, and consumption is spurring growth. If it weren't for the roaring machines in the factories all night and the workers working in shifts in three shifts, just looking at the prosperity of the shops and restaurants, people would think that this was a period of great economic prosperity.

Confucius Temple, ten miles of Qinhuai around the lights are red and green, and more than nine o'clock in the evening is the most exciting time. The car drove past the Confucius Temple and entered a high-end villa area in the middle of nowhere.

At 9:40, the car stopped in front of Gate 14 of Scissors Lane. Hu Jiong went to ring the doorbell.

The alley was empty in front and back, with only a few cars parked and not a single person. Xiang Xiaoqiang sighed that it was not easy for the Liaoyang Princess Mansion to remain a secret until now. Those soldiers of the People's Guard who serve here as guards can really be called "loyal and brave". It is not easy to achieve the "bravery" of wearing through a hundred steps and grabbing the blade empty-handed, but it is even more difficult to achieve true "loyalty". This "loyalty" is not only about not betraying, but also about some seemingly inconspicuous, but actually more difficult, such as being strict.

Xiang Xiaoqiang admires Hu Jiong very much. This is also the reason why he brought Hu Jiong here today.

The guards at the door pushed open the iron fence door, and Hu Jiong returned to the car and drove in.

……

It was abrupt to come to the princess's mansion at night, which Xiang Xiaoqiang usually didn't dare. Today, with the strength of the wine, and through the fourteen grids of "making mistakes" first, I want to criticize her as a leader...... In addition, there are personnel adjustments, which must be ventilated...... Oops, there are so many good reasons.

On both sides of the courtyard path, a little maid wearing Hanfu led the way in front with a lantern, and followed Xiaoqiang leisurely, thinking that he was the emperor of ancient times, and he lifted the sign of a certain concubine at night, and now he is shuttling through the garden of the harem under the guidance of the palace maid...... Behind a certain palace wall, the fourteen grids, who were his concubines, had already bathed in fragrant soup, finished dressing up, prepared a feast, and were waiting for him happily......

Ah...... Tut-tut...... Don't be too cool.

Passing through a small round door, in the lawn under the lamp, the beautiful Japanese-style building comes into view. Stepping on the small stone path to the bottom of the porch, the little maid turned around, bowed very respectfully, and said gently:

"My lord, please change your shoes."

Well? Xiang Xiaoqiang suddenly noticed this little girl: Isn't this Xiao Wu?

The moment he turned around and bowed, Xiang Xiaoqiang saw her face. Sure enough, it was Xiao Wu.

Oh, I haven't seen you for more than two months, and it seems to be more beautiful. I've grown a little taller, too. Moreover, the Chinese sentence "Adults please change their shoes" is also said in a correct manner. It seems that the fourteen grids are usually not less**.

Xiao Wu bowed obediently, his hands on his knees, and his long black hair was scattered on his shoulders.

Probably feeling that he was being stared at, Xiao Wu secretly raised his head and glanced at Xiang Xiaoqiang, his big black eyes just met Xiang Xiaoqiang's "lustful" eyes, and he shrank his head in fright and didn't dare to look up. His hands were still on his knees, but he was pinching his skirt unnaturally.

Xiang Xiaoqiang was condescending, looking at Xiao Wu, who was bowing his head to his ears, and suddenly his heart trembled, remembering Zhu Yourong's appearance.

Zhu Yourong, I don't know what I'm doing at the moment? Are you playing your guitar in the Imperial Garden again, looking at the same moon as yourself?

Alas, whatever! Zhu Yourong, the brainless girl, don't think about her now. Now, I'm outside the door of Fourteen Grids......

……

Take off your shoes and enter the hall.

I saw that Fourteen Gege was also wearing a soft Hanfu, sitting cross-legged on the floor, ...... Ing......

Wait, read that right......

Xiang Xiaoqiang closed his eyes and opened them again, and what he saw was indeed ...... Fourteen Ge sat cross-legged, holding a dart in his hand, squinting his eyes, gesturing for a moment, and throwing it violently. The dart made a nice shallow arc in the air, "Bang! "It was very forcefully nailed into a target disc a few meters away, almost right in the heart.

Next to it was a bottle of brandy, an empty cup. Looking at the amber liquor in the bottle, there is only half of the amber liquor left, and then looking at the fourteen grids with a red face, it is estimated that they have already drunk half a bottle.

Next to the bottle, there are a few darts scattered.

Fourteen Gege's pretty face was crimson, staring at the target plate intently, and he didn't notice Xiang Xiaoqiang, he picked up another dart, squinted his eyes and aimed at it a few times, and threw it with shaking hands. "Bang", another dart nailed into the heart.

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled dumbly, he didn't expect such a princess and Gege to play with this kind of boy's thing at home.

Fourteen Gege is also pitiful enough, alone in exile in an enemy country, with no friends and no relatives. During the day, I feel better and can fully devote myself to work. But she can only stay at home alone at night, and she can't even go out to play.

Xiang Xiaoqiang wanted to call her. I had just taken a step forward when I stepped on something. When I looked down, I saw something folded by a few newspapers.

He bent down to pick it up, and it turned out to be a paper crane folded with newspaper.

A large headline swept over the wings of the paper crane: "The Tartar Princess of the Ming Dynasty".

Xiang Xiaoqiang was a little stunned, slowly opened the paper crane, and saw that this half of the newspaper was full of words that insulted and attacked her.

At his feet, there are more than a dozen paper cranes.

A few meters away, next to the coffee table, there was a large pile of newspaper paper cranes, there were hundreds.

Each of these newspapers contained a text attacking her. But now, they've all turned into cranes.

……

"Bang! …… Crackling......"

Looking up at Xiaoqiang, there were three or four darts nailed to the target plate in the distance, and the remaining five or six darts fell on the floor under the target disk, still rolling.

Fourteen squares threw the rest of the darts out in one fell swoop.

Then, she grabbed the brandy bottle, poured half a cup into the cup with a "knock knock", and when she raised her eyes, she happened to see Xiang Xiaoqiang.

Fourteen Gege looked at Xiang Xiaoqiang blankly, poured a full cup in his hand, and before he knew it, the wine flowed down the floor.
