The rain, which had been going on for days, finally stopped in the evening.

Today's Raoguan is no longer the calm and rich of the past, but the lives of the people are devastated, and there are traces left by the war everywhere.

Qu Jiuning stood on the high city wall, his hands attached to his back, and looked down condescendingly.

Her whole person, even her mentality, is very calm.

This era was originally a troubled time, and if you don't make yourself stronger, you will only be swallowed.

The times are like this, the law of the jungle is the strong.

So as long as you are strong, you will not be bullied.

The green spirit stood by and watched for a long time before slowly approaching, and said with a respectful hand: "General, the battlefield has been cleared. ”

Qu Jiuning hummed lightly: "We should also go back." ”

After Qu Jiuning came down from the city wall, Xiao Zi followed behind her.

A large part of Raoguan was affected by the mudslide, and the situation was not very good, Qu Jiuning went to the place full of mourning, and she went straight to the base camp of Raoguan without squinting.

When he was about to arrive, Qu Jiuning saw a large group of men being handcuffed with heavy chains, and walked forward step by step.

She paused slightly and asked, "Why are all men?" ”

"These are prisoners of war, and they were captured by the good-looking men selected in Raoguan to be brought back."

The fate of the prisoners of war was not good, which meant that the items were left to be selected, and if they were leftover, they would be sent to the barracks to serve as soldiers

。

Xiao Zi thought that she had taken a fancy to which prisoner of war, so she took the lead and walked over and ordered: "You guys bring those prisoners of war over." ”

didn't give Qu Jiuning a chance to say no, and the prisoners of war had already been pressed in front of her by the soldiers.

The men were all of high quality, all with their heads bowed, and their eyes were full of grayness.

They knew that after Raoguan was defeated, there would be no more freedom to speak of.

"General. Anyway, they are all prisoners of war, and the general will see if there is a match. ”

Qu Jiuning looked at her with light eyes, "General Ben is such a person in your heart?" ”

“... No... Can the general ....".... That's the kind of person you are.

People all over Kyoto know that the king is good and excessive, and there are countless male favorites in the family.

Besides, which woman is not good for men?

The general's ability is so strong, what is the color of the color.

If the general is not good, how can he buy Lu Tingsen and not hesitate to provoke His Majesty.

But why did the general ask her about it now?

Xiao Zi didn't know what to say, the green spirit glanced at Xiao Zi and sighed in his heart.

has been following the general for so long, Xiao Zi still doesn't understand the general's heart.

Qu Jiuning pursed his lips.

She also thought that what she had done during this time was enough for Xiao Zi to know that at least she was a very upright person.

But I never thought of it.

It's still the same, and little has changed.

Qu Jiuning pursed his lips and turned around to leave.

"The general is not chosen?"

"Don't." Qu Jiuning refused at the moment.

Gong Liufu and Rong Lu alone in the mansion are enough for me to deal with, and if there are a few more, wouldn't it be for me to die?

Don't, don't!

When Qu Jiuning was about to leave, a voice suddenly came.

"General, General!"

As soon as Qu Jiuning turned around, a person was already kneeling at her feet and crawled towards her, grabbing her trousers: "General, the slave is folded." ”

"A minion can do a lot of things, a minion wants to stay by the general's side, and wants to serve the general for the rest of his life."

...

Su Xi was born with a palm-sized face, very delicate, skin as white as if a shelled egg, a pair of eyes were wet, and looking at it so quietly couldn't help but feel pity.

Qu Jiuning looked at the trousers who were caught, with a subtle expression.

Su Xi looked at her appearance and hurriedly explained: "Although the slave was born in Raoguan, the orphan has been struggling at the bottom of Raoguan, innocent, without any details, begging the general to take him in." ”

Su Xi's fawn-like eyes looked at Qu Jiuning tightly, and he was about to cry.

Xiao Zi couldn't help but feel distressed when she looked at it.

How can such a beautiful man cry, he should be held in the palm of his hand and pampered.

Such a good-looking man begged bitterly, why was the general not moved at all?

Qu Jiuning was not only unmoved, but Lu Tingsen's face flashed in his mind.

If she accepted this Su Xi, what would Lu Tingsen's reaction be?

Gas-blown up? Or is it crazy to scold her in your heart?

"I don't have any money in my house anymore to support one more person."

All the silver was used to buy Lu Tingsen, and there was no spare money to support others.

Su Xi was slightly stunned for a while, and hurriedly said: "The slave eats very little, and he can go without eating for three days!" ”

"Even then, it still won't work."

Qu Jiuning stepped back slightly, breaking free of Su Xi's palm.

Su Xi's pale face was as pale as paper at this time, his fawn-like eyes were full of despair, and tears were about to burst out of his eyes.

Xiao Zi couldn't bear to look at it, so she dared to walk up to Qu Jiuning and asked, "General.... If the general doesn't want it, can the general take him away? ”

If such a jade-like person is ruined, it is quite unbearable.

The green spirit looked at her.

Xiao Zi felt strange and scratched her head embarrassedly.

Originally, she wanted to find a man for the general, but after seeing Su Xi, she took a fancy to it, and she was extremely reluctant to cry.

Qu Jiuning didn't mean anything, and waved his hand casually: "If you like it, take it away." ”

Xiao Ziren is not bad, at least he will treat Su Xi well.

"Thank you, General."

Su Xi knelt on the ground, his eyes fixed on Qu Jiuning's back as he left, Xiao Zi was overjoyed to help Su Xi up, with obvious joy on his face.

"It's called Su Xi, I'll treat you well in the future, at least I won't be hungry again."

Su Yi retracted his eyes, lowered his head and said, "The slave thanked the master." ”

Xiao Zi smiled with satisfaction.

*

Half a month later.

Since receiving the military report from Rao Guan, Lu Tingsen has never received a letter from Qu Jiuning since the victory.

Because they are already on their way back, there will be no more danger.

But after there was no letter, Lu Tingsen felt that this day was becoming more and more difficult.

Every day is like a year, looking forward to Qu Jiuning's early return.

It is estimated that the army will return to Kyoto today.

So Lu Tingsen waited at the gate of the city early, wanting to see Qu Jiuning for the first time.

I haven't seen her for a few months, and I don't know if she's doing well.

"It's back... It's back! ”

From a distance, he saw a large army appear in front of him, Lu Tingsen stared at the people in the distance tightly, although he couldn't see clearly, but he looked at the blurred figure on the sweaty horse.

The eye sockets are involuntarily slightly hot.

She's finally back.

Came back safe and sound.

The soldiers entered Kyoto in good training, and Qu Jiuning in front became the focus of everyone's attention.

Once again, she won.

The prince, who is ridiculed every day, has won the battle again and returned!

Qu Jiuning had already seen Lu Tingsen in a high place.

Qu Jiuning stopped a little after entering the customs, and Lu Tingsen and Hakka Li Su immediately greeted him.

"Lord Wang, the minion has always been looking forward to your coming back soon, it's good, it's good that you can come back safely!"

Qu Jiuning hooked his lips slightly.

looked at Lu Tingsen.

He stood there, his dark eyes staring at her for a moment.

I haven't seen him for many months, he is better than before, his complexion looks much better, and the injuries on his body seem to have been healed a long time ago.

[yes, it's good, it doesn't look like it's hurting, it's great!] 】

Qu Jiuning, who was sitting on a horse, hooked his finger at Lu Tingsen and said, "Come to me and let General Ben take a look." ”

He was slightly stunned, and then took a step in front of her, which would have taken five steps to reach her, but he was forced to shorten it to three steps.

Qu Jiuning looked at it for a while, and suddenly lifted his lips and smiled: "Well, I finally gained a little weight." ”

He looked at her, his pale eyes with a mocking smile.

His mood couldn't help but be happy, and his heart was full of joy.

[It's a little fat, but you've lost a lot of weight, a lot of weight.] 】

Qu Jiuning subconsciously touched his cheek.

There's no way, you can't eat too well in a war outside, and it's normal to be thin.

At this moment, a man came out of the sedan chair behind him, he walked straight towards Qu Jiuning, and bowed respectfully: "Lord Wang." ”

Qu Jiuning glanced at Su Xi and instructed Li Sudao, the housekeeper who had been standing next to him, "Take him back and arrange a place for him to live for the time being." ”

Li Su was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded.

Lu Tingsen was also stunned for a moment, and then his dark eyes looked at Su Xi fixedly.

Qu Jiuning originally wanted to explain, but suddenly chose to shut up.

looked at Lu Tingsen quietly.

I was faintly expecting his reaction.

She had been wanting to know for a long time.

If she brought Su Xizhen into the palace and became her male favorite, what would Lu Tingsen's reaction be?
