Chapter 55: Beauty Sneaks In Through the Night
The lights illuminated the Land Temple, and Lian Xiaoqiang used her sleeve to sweep away the dust on the altar.
In the troubled times, there was no one to worship, the temple was dilapidated and the dust was too thick, and the sleeves couldn't be wiped clean, and even Xiao Qiang didn't mind sitting in front of the land lord and stuffed the mirror under his buttocks.
"She didn't see your face the first time, and of course she won't be the second time." He said, "How can someone as smart as you be obsessed? ”
Lian Xiaojun said: "The first time she didn't know my talent, so she didn't look at my appearance, now she already knows my talent, she should be able to see my appearance, why do I pour her tea, I smile at her, I talk to her, she will be distracted." ”
A lot of the time he just sits, and the person opposite doesn't look away from his eyes and mind.
This is the first time I have seen Lian Xiaojun distressed because of his appearance, even if he was stolen and robbed to cause trouble, and his family complained that he blamed this face, he didn't have the slightest trouble.
Lian Xiaoqiang gloated: "Because Mrs. Chu is more beautiful than you." Speaking of this, he was curious, "Did you see her face this time?" ”
"There is no curtain, only a pair of eyes are seen through the veil." Lian Xiaojun shook his head, thinking about those eyes, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, "It's really beautiful, it's like seeing my eyes in the mirror." ”
When this sentence came out, there seemed to be some thoughts flashing through him, and even Xiaoqiang had already interrupted with laughter.
He said, "You beauties look at them like rubble. ”
"Why does she like Han Xu?" Lian Xiaojun thought about this question seriously.
"Because Han Xu is an official of the imperial court." Lian Xiaoqiang pursed her lips and replied casually, "It can bring convenience to her." ”
"Officialdom and convenience are just business." Lian Xiaojun said, "Han Xu gave her rice and money, and I also gave it." ”
Lian Xiaoqiang didn't want to think about this, and asked anxiously: "Then after you said our business, did she agree?" ”
Lian Xiaojun took out the seal of Mrs. Chu Guo: "I agreed." ”
Lian Xiaoqiang was overjoyed: "Isn't this enough!" He took the seal with both hands and looked at it upside down, looking incredulous, "Is such an important thing really given to you?" What else do you want, that's what I like you! ”
Lian Xiaojun said: "When she heard that Han Xu was aiding Jiangling Mansion, she immediately helped Han Xu, but told me that if she couldn't do business, she would kill me." ”
"Maybe she will kill Han Xu after she finishes aiding him." Lian Xiaoqiang said perfunctorily, she didn't want to waste any more time discussing these things, the cooperation had been reached, and how to do this business was the most critical thing.
If the business fails, it is natural to die.
He sat up straight and looked at Lian Xiaojun: "You really want to sneak into Yangzhou City?" ”
Lian Xiaojun said: "I got a secret channel dug by the rich merchant in Yangzhou City for the previous business, and now I can use it." ”
Lian Xiaoqiang said: "Can you really convince Ma Jiang?" Ma Jiang is now at the end of his rope and is frenzied. ”
"How do you know if you don't try." Lian Xiaojun smiled, turned around and walked out, "I'm going, you are ready to wait." ”
Lian Xiaoqiang sat cross-legged in front of the statue, watching the beauty fluttering towards the night like a beast opening its mouth, thinking that not long ago he was still trapped in the small courtyard of his home, and there were only a handful of people who stepped out of the house for more than 20 years.
Even Xiaojun plans to do it for the rest of his life, because it is too dangerous to step out of the house.
Now the world is more dangerous than before, but he has not the slightest fear, and he is comfortable in this dangerous world, who made him like this?
It's Mrs. Chu.
Mrs. Chu is a beauty, and she is doing the most dangerous thing in this troubled world.
Lian Xiaoqiang turned his head to look at the dilapidated statue of the Lord of the Land behind him, and asked, "Do you say this is a hero's sympathy or a beauty's sympathy?" ”
The Lord of the Land will not answer his words, now everyone is fleeing for their lives, there is no place to live, there is no incense to worship, and the gods are extinct.
Ma Jiangku sat in the hall, not wanting to ask God to worship Buddha, his expression was desperate and hideous.
"My lord, there is still no news of reinforcements." A general said in a low voice, and hurriedly added, "Now that Yangzhou is surrounded on all sides, the soldiers and horses of the Lady of Chu will inevitably cut off the road, and the letter soldiers may not have been sent out yet." ”
Is the news here still delivered by the messengers? Why lie to yourself, Ma Jiang sneered: "That slut has long known the world about showing off this news." ”
How could An Dezhong not know? Ankang Mountain must also know, but what's the use? The father and son would not send troops to save him, and for the beasts, useless things had to be thrown away.
The general naturally knew it, but he didn't dare to say it, since Ma Jiang had broken it, he gritted his teeth and stepped forward: "My lord, surrender." Mrs. Chu is not murderous. ”
Ma Jiang sneered: "Mrs. Chu is not thirsty for killing, but I will die." ”
Other Mrs. Chu can not be killed, he, the Huainan Provincial Observer who defected to the rebels early in the morning and had countless blood on his hands, Mrs. Chu must be killed to comfort the Huainan Provincial military and civilians and deter the rebels.
How could he send himself to death for the sake of someone else's immortality? It's better to let someone else die, maybe in exchange for a glimmer of life for him.
Ma Jiang stood up and said fiercely: "Let those people be meat shields, and let that slut kill." ”
He was originally a civilian official, and only after becoming an observer did he gather military power, and he has always been known for his timidity and caution, until the Ankang Mountain Rebellion, he really picked up the knife, although there were not many people killed with his own hands, but the number of people who died in front of his eyes and under his orders was innumerable.
There's nothing uncomfortable with killing people now, but I'm very excited to see one life being cut off by him.
Ma Jiang's eyes were red after several days of sleeplessness: "I want to pull them to the city gate and tell Mrs. Chu that as long as the soldiers and horses attack, I will kill them." ”
He laughed a few times.
"It is said that the rebels slaughtered the city fiercely, and the lady of Chu State, who is known for her mercy and immortals, can also slaughter the city, everyone is the same, no one should pretend to be a good person."
Although it sounds crazy, maybe the lady of Chu who killed her really retired from the army? This lady of Chu has created a reputation as a fairy for so long, and she is always reluctant to destroy it.
The generals thought to themselves, of course, it is impossible to retreat completely, as long as they retreat some, they will have the opportunity to rush and escape.
He gritted his teeth and said yes, he was about to turn around and walk out, and someone ran in from outside the door.
"My lord, even Xiaojun is here." He said.
Ma Jiang was stunned: "Who is Lian Xiaojun?" ”
And why is it used? Instead of asking for a meeting? What does it mean to come?
The general had already seen outside the door, and in the blue light, there was a young figure, and his black hair and snow-white face could be vaguely seen......
I couldn't see it clearly, and I was stunned, not to mention standing up close, the general looked at the fascination on the faces of the people who came in to make a confession.
I was so drunk that I brought people over without telling them.
If this is the assassin of the Lady of Chu State, the adult will be in danger.
Ma Jiang also thought of it, and was immediately furious: "Behead me." ”
Whether it's that Lian Xiaojun, or this personal soldier who reported the news.
The general looked at the looming figure, and couldn't help but turn around and whisper to Ma Jiang: "It's Zhang Qing's male favorite...."
Ma Jiang was stunned for a moment, and remembered that someone came to tell him this, taking it as Zhang Qing's joke.
He didn't take this seriously at that time, and he didn't get angry with Zhang Qing, but now he was already angry, and he was even more angry when he heard it.
Ma Jiang shouted angrily: "Kill him for me!" ”
The general hurriedly stopped again: "Maybe Zhang Qing asked him to come, although Zhang Qing was defeated, he fled in time with his troops." ”
Now alive, maybe I can come to the rescue.
Zhang Qingcai had a few soldiers, Ma Jiang was disdainful, but ...... He put away his anger and snorted.
The general hurriedly waved his hand to the soldiers kneeling on the ground: "Please come in." ”
The pro-soldier response was.
The general watched him walk outside the door, and saluted Lian Xiaojun with admiration, gratitude, and joy.
"Sure enough, as Childe said, adults won't kill me, thank you Childe, Childe doesn't have to die with me."
The general was stunned, it was obvious that he was the one who saved him! It's a pity that you didn't die with him?
The general couldn't cry or laugh, this pro-soldier was fascinated?
Lian Xiaojun returned the salute to the soldiers and walked in.
The general hurriedly straightened his expression, straightened his back, and his demeanor was mighty.
