Chapter 853: A glass of wine for the deceased
Chu Yueli was promoted from the county lord to the county lord from the first grade, and this news quickly flew out of the palace, which was shocking. At the very least, all the royal relatives and nobles are very sure - the emperor doesn't like Chu Yueli.
But at the moment, it seems that it is both a reward and a commendation, and it doesn't seem that I don't like it. What is that? Everyone wondered.
After Chu Fu knew the news, it was simply a peacock opening the screen, and he immediately shook up. After the eldest princess died, Lord Chu wanted to run away, but the whole city was tracking down the murderer, and he was forced to retreat before he could run out of the street. He lived a life of being a soldier, and never thought that he would be able to wait for such good news. Lord Chu almost cried with joy.
The Chu Mansion got up and wanted to celebrate Chu Yueli, but this person couldn't be found.
Where is Chu Yueli?
Military orders are like mountains, and they don't give people time to breathe at all. The general was ordered to set off, and the speed was unimaginable.
Bai Yunjian rarely lost his temper, turned a blind eye to the general's travel, and nested in the mansion to recuperate. Chu Yueli called Brother Gu Xi to join her, brought a pot of wine, and came to send the deceased in person.
When the general saw Brother Gu Xi, he was stunned.
Chu Yueli poured two glasses of wine and gave them to the general and Gu Xige respectively.
Brother Gu Xi looked up at the general and called out a little shyly: "Godfather." ”
There were tears faintly in the general's eyes, but he blinked twice and swallowed back into his body. He stretched out his big palm like a fan, wanting to pat Gu Xige's shoulder, but he was afraid of hurting her, so he finally withdrew it curtly and said, "You...... Take care of yourself. Anyone dares to bully you, the old man can't spare him! With that, his eyes swept to the following Jiaxing.
Jia Xing was delicate, and saw the general's unusual feelings, so he hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, general, if someone dares to bully Brother Xi, if you don't work for the general, the next official will not spare him!" ”
The general suddenly flew off his horse and attacked Jiaxing.
After five or six moves in succession, the general withdrew his hand and said, "The foundation of martial arts is good." Men should make meritorious contributions, don't always learn those tricks of intrigue! These words are in the white clouds.
Xing Jia knew that this was not the right answer, so he just smiled.
Chu Yueli shook her head and smiled, filled each other's wine glasses, and said, "I also salute the general." This is a long way to go, and it is cherished. ”
The general strained his face and looked at Chu Yueli, the two looked at each other for a long time, as if there was an undercurrent surging, and they would fight for a few rounds at any time, but they suddenly smiled at the same time, but there was a rare tacit understanding, and an unknown tacit understanding.
The general asked Fengjiang to find Chu Yueli to solve the problem, but Chu Yueli did not disappoint him. The general reciprocated the favor and won the position of county lord for him above the main hall. Although there is no commitment between the two, they are both smart people, and there is no need to say much.
The general mounted on the horse, glanced at the feudal territory, and rode away without any explanation. A team of iron horsemen, roaring past, the scene is both spectacular and a little bleak. Learn literature and martial arts, and sell goods to the emperor's family. However, when the object is old, how much brilliance can be left, and how many copper plates are worth? After making the best use of things, is it the fate of abandonment?
Chu Yueli, Feng Jiang and the others watched together as a long group of men and horses rushed into the distance, until they disappeared, leaving only dust everywhere, but there were no horses' hooves.
Retracting her gaze, Chu Yueli said, "How about going to drink?" ”
Feng Jiang naturally nodded in response.
Brother Gu Xi looked at Jia Xing, his eyes were longing. Normally, as a new daughter-in-law, it is already a broken rule to let her go out to send the general, and if you still want to drink, it is really unreasonable. However, Xing Jia knew that Brother Gu Xi longed for a free and easy life, and ...... The hostess has spoken, and it is even more impossible for him to refuse. The most important thing is that Jia Xing is willing to spoil Brother Xi and watch her chirp like a little bird, extremely happy.
A Xing said: "You go with the county lord, I will be on duty and go back to the master." ”
Brother Gu Xi immediately nodded like garlic.
A Xing also instructed: "Don't drink too much, drink a little pleasantly." ”
Brother Gu Xi was about to reply, when he heard Gu Jiuxiao say, "You are really wordy." walked away, there is a master watching, Brother Xi will not drink too much. Gu Jiuxiao walked out from behind the stone pillar, pulled Gu Xige, and walked forward.
Brother Gu Xi turned around and shook his hand at Jia Xing.
A line smiled back.
Brother Gu Xi reluctantly retracted his gaze and said to Gu Jiuxiao: "Second brother, you are obviously here, why don't you see off the general?" ”
Gu Jiuxiao's tone was a little rushed, and he replied, "What can I send him?!" ”
Brother Gu Xi was speechless.
Chu Yueli opened her mouth and said, "What are you doing Brother Hengxi?!" ”
Gu Jiuxiao's arrogance immediately reined in, and he replied cowardly: "I didn't cross her, I ate a mouthful of ashes and wanted to vomit." Phew! ”
Chu Yueli smiled and said no more. She knew in her heart that Gu Jiuxiao's feelings for the general were a little complicated. Gu Jiuxiao worships heroes, but what can he do...... This big hero is his sister's father. Every time he saw the general, he was angry, but he had to pretend not to know.
A group of four people came to the small wine shop, pushed the glass and changed the lamp, talked and laughed, so lively.
In the small wine shop, the people are noisy, but they are all talking about one thing. Recently, the imperial capital has not been peaceful, and there are always women who die for no reason. For some reason, the murderer will burn the female corpse, as if he is covering up some truth.
Everyone talked about this matter in a mysterious way, and the atmosphere was fully rendered.
After hearing this, Chu Yueli asked Gu Jiuxiao, "Have you heard about this?" ”
Gu Jiuxiao replied: "I heard about it." A total of three women died, and there is no connection, so I can't see why the murderer killed. Instead, he said to Brother Gu Xi, "In the future, without me or Jiaxing with you, you are not allowed to go out, do you hear?!" ”
Brother Gu Xi felt a little frightened, nodded, but still said indignantly: "This murderer is so ruthless, he should be killed if he is caught, lest he harm others." ”
Chu Yueli said to Feng Jiang: "You pay attention to this matter and see if you can find the murderer through your sense of smell." ”
Feng Jiang nodded in response.
Gu Jiuxiao smiled: "Why are you still nosy?" ”
Chu Yueli smiled at the corner of her lips, raised her glass, and joked: "When the official becomes bigger, he always has to take some responsibility." ”
They laughed and continued to drink until the sun was turned away.
Chu Yueli inquired again if Gonggong Tao had been here, and after receiving a negative answer, a trace of loss was rolled up in her heart. After all, she owes him.
After getting drunk, they should have divided their own things, but everyone was drunk, and they all followed Chu Yueli back to the Cloud Mansion.
Chu Yueli fell asleep, but Gu Xige was a "heroine" all night. She pulled out Jiaxing's sword and wanted to go to the chivalrous battle, but Jiaxing's face was completely blackened, so she picked up her mother-in-law, took leave, and sent her home.
Gu Jiuxiao and Feng Jiang found a room casually and slept soundly.
The cloud mansion among the white clouds has never been so lively. But because of Chu Yueli, it has become like a home. What is home? Isn't it just firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar tea? At the very least, Yundi has a vinegar smell, will the other flavors be far away?
Bai Yunjian looked at Chu Yueli's sleeping face, leaned over, and bit her chin, leaving a tooth mark.
