"Your Highness, please give this house to Fahrenheit!" Gong Xichu clasped his hands into fists and said very sincerely.

"Huh?" The prince was stunned, thinking that it was good that he was not arrogant just now.

Gong Xichu hung his head, his eyes were slightly dull, but his language was very clear, "Doesn't Hua's want a house?" Your Highness just give her this house. ”

The prince opened the paper in his hand, and it was really a deed, and he couldn't help but hesitate and said: "Aren't you afraid that the rest of the family will oppose you if you give her the property in your family?" As far as he knew, in the Kang Lobo Mansion, whether it was Gong Xichu's father Kang Lebo, or his mother-in-law, and his brother-in-law were all eyeing the family's property, wouldn't he give others a chance to have a seizure?

"Your Highness, rest assured, the house in this fruit lane is my private property, and even my grandmother doesn't know about it." Gong Xichu explained.

This time the prince was really surprised, and he didn't expect this nominal general to have this mind. couldn't help laughing: "The general is worthy of being battle-hardened for a long time, and he is really far-sighted." ”

The corners of Gong Xichu's mouth moved, he wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh, he pointed to the two wooden boxes on the ground, "These two wooden boxes have jewelry and silver, they should be worth a lot of money, they have been saved by the ministers over the years, and His Royal Highness will come out from here when he wants to reward Fahrenheit in the future, if the jewelry is not convenient to exchange for silver." ”

"What are you doing here?" The prince put down the deed paper in his hand and looked at Gong Xichu, "These things are yours, since you want to give it to her directly, why bother to let this king turn his hand in the middle?" ”

Gong Xichu raised his eyes, "But Your Highness, the Fahrenheit given by the minister is not necessary!" The reason why she left home was to prove that she could live better without relying on Bofu and without me, and she would definitely not want it if I gave it. ”

"Actually, you don't need to be like this at all, after all, Mrs. Hua's ability is still very recognized by this king, and she earned tens of thousands of taels in just one day at an exhibition, and this king should reward her generously." The prince was a little repulsed in his heart, and let Gong Xichu do it like this, as if he was poor and had nothing to reward others, especially now that he was really poor.

"But Your Highness, she is my woman!" Gong Xichu said firmly.

The prince was stunned for a moment, and then stood up with a little hot face, "Presumptuous!" Gongxi Chu, you have to make it clear that this king took Mrs. Hua to the East Palace only for the people of Fanbang, not as outsiders say! "Although no one chews his tongue in front of the prince, this does not mean that the prince does not know that there is a rumor that he is lustful and robbed*.

This time, it was Gongxi Chu's turn to be stunned, and then hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, "Your Highness, Your Highness is high-spirited, so naturally you won't do such a thing." It's just that let your own women live in someone else's house, ......"

The prince's mood gradually calmed down, and he looked at Gong Xichu who was full of pain and entanglement, and a trace of sympathy suddenly surged in his heart, and finally nodded, "Since this is the case, then you can leave all the things, and this king will find a suitable opportunity to reward Mrs. Hua." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Gongxi Chu sincerely thanked and saluted.

The prince smiled, it was enough to be a man and do Gongxi Chu's job, "Is General Gongxi going to find Mrs. Hua?" She's going to the trade fair in a moment. ”

"Nope." Gong Xichu shook his head, "The minister has already violated military discipline by leaving the barracks without permission, and if he doesn't go back and be punished, I'm afraid that Yuan Shuai will be even more angry." ”

"Since that's the case, you can go, the rivers and mountains of Beipeng still need you to guard! Mrs. Hua, don't worry, while appreciating the house, the king will also send guards over, so you don't have to worry about safety! The prince promised.

"Thank you prince, the minister will not disgrace his life!"

Looking at the back of Gongxi Chu striding away, the prince thought for a moment, and then ordered someone to put these things away.

Gonggong Cui came over from the side and asked tentatively, "Your Highness, do you want to go and talk to the emperor?" If you search Yuan Shuai's mansion with private loot, you will definitely gain something, you see that a small five-rank general in Gongxi Chu has saved so much! ”

The prince looked at Grandpa Cui, "Although what you said makes sense, it is useless to do so." ”

Grandpa Cui didn't understand, isn't the treasury short of silver now? And as long as Yuan Shuai is removed, won't the military power return to the hands of the emperor?

Xu is mood is better, the prince kindly explained to Gonggong Cui, "Now that the situation in the north is tense, my father will not move Yuan Shuai no matter what; What's more, if Yuan Shuai moves, will he definitely be able to recover his military power? Have you forgotten that there is also a King Han? Besides, the reason why you searched Yuan Shuai's mansion is too funny, the victory obtained in the war has always been divided into three parts, one tribute to the imperial court, one share to the general who led the troops, and one equal share to those soldiers, this is the customary rule. Even if the father is the lord of a country, he can't change anything without permission. ”

Gonggong Cui bent down and listened carefully, and when the prince finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh, "It's just a pity that I have such a good opportunity." ”

"This king thinks this opportunity is good." After the prince finished speaking, he smiled, looked at the puzzled Father-in-law Cui and said, "Have you forgotten?" Gongxi Chu is Yuan Shuai's only personal disciple, not to mention that Yuan Shuai has no son, so you can imagine what the status of this disciple is. ”

"Your Highness is saying......" Gonggong Cui seems to understand a little, but he doesn't seem to understand.

The prince ignored Gonggong Cui, and only ordered: "You go down and beat the palace maids in the East Palace, and don't snub Mrs. Hua." ”

"Yes."

On the other side, the West Hill Barracks.

Gongxi Chu walked all the way to the big tent of the Chinese army, turning a blind eye to the sympathetic or gloating gazes on both sides.

"Yuan Shuai!" Knowing that he was wrong, he knelt down as soon as he entered the big tent.

There were originally several generals in the big tent who were talking to Yuan Shuai, but at this time, they stopped with a tacit understanding, and after looking at each other, they all made excuses to leave.

Yuan Shuai glanced at the beloved disciple kneeling on the ground and did not speak, only sat on the chair and drank tea silently. Although he really wanted to learn from those literati and ink writers to sip in small sips, but in the end, it was the rough nature that prevailed, and a pot of tea quickly bottomed out, Yuan Shuai dropped the tea cup and shouted angrily, "What about the tea?" Just feed the mosquitoes in one bite! ”

"It's coming, it's coming." Vice General Xu, who has been with him for many years, understands Yuan Shuai and walks in with another pot of tea.

Gongxi Chu Teng got up and came to Vice General Xu's side, and a smiling face bloomed, "Uncle Xu, I'm coming!" ”

Vice General Xu was not annoyed when he saw that the tray in his hand was snatched, but only stood aside from a distance and watched with a smile.

"Yuan Shuai, Achu will pour you tea." Gongxi Chu lifted the spirit of twelve points and moved forward step by step.

Yuan Shuai didn't move, just stood there and looked at Gong Xichu, who was getting closer and closer. Seeing that he was about to approach, Yuan Shuai glared, roared, raised his foot and kicked at Gongxi Chu's chest, this kick was full of strength, if he really kicked it, he would have to lie on the bed for two months.

Coming from this side, Gong Xichu's nerves tightened, and now he saw that Yuan Shuai kicked over and narrowly avoided this kick on one short side.

But Yuan Shuai wasn't done yet, the kicked foot actually changed direction, and suddenly swept at Gongxi Chu again, still scolding in his mouth, "Boy, if you dare to spill my tea, I will peel your skin!" ”

Gong Xichu, who originally planned to use an iron plate bridge kung fu to dodge this kick, had to raise his leg to take this kick hard, and if he lowered his waist to dodge, he could dodge it, but the tray in his hand would definitely be kicked away.

One is an attack full of strength, and the other is a hasty move, and the result can be imagined, Gong Xichu was kicked by the force of the slam and hit the chair behind him again and again before stopping, and most of the water in the teapot in his hand was spilled.

Gongxi Chu grinned in pain, hurriedly rubbed his legs with one free hand, and shouted in annoyance: "Master, can't you be light?" ”

"Tap?" Yuan Shuai snorted coldly, "Can you have a long memory?" As soon as the words fell, the long legs stepped forward again, and they grabbed the punch and hit it.

The fist was mixed with the sound of Huo Huo's wind, and the weight was not light at all, Gong Xichu turned white at the moment, and he didn't care whether the tea in his hand would be spilled, so he directly threw the tea tray and teapot over, and jumped to the left by himself. Before he could stand firmly, he heard a crackling sound, and the tray and the teapot shattered at once, and if this punch hit his body, he was afraid that he would have to break a few ribs.

"Stinky boy, dare to spoil my tea? See how I teach you! Yuan Shuai roared angrily, and the offensive became more and more rapid,

Gongxi Chu blocked left and right, he was not embarrassed for a while, he was not Yuan Shuai's opponent, not to mention that he was at fault and did not dare to fight back, and finally was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face.

Looking at Gong Xichu lying on the ground, Yuan Shuai stepped forward and kicked twice, "Stinky boy, dare to be a deserter with this skill?" I think you're just tight and underdrawn! ”

Vice General Xu next to him saw that Yuan Shuai's anger was almost gone, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help Gong Xichu up, and said in his mouth: "Yuan Shuai is angry, don't you see that Ah Chu is still injured?" ”

Yuan Shuai then turned his gaze to Gongxi Chu's injured right hand, and pouted, "What?" Let the woman bite? Is it worth wrapping up like that? ”

"Ahem!" Gongxi Chu coughed twice, raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stood up with the help of Vice General Xu, and then said, "No, this is a Fanbang fight." ”

"What? Fanbang people hit? Didn't you go back to your woman? Why did you get involved with the Fanbang people? Yuan Shuai's brows furrowed tightly, "And is your kung fu regressing like this now?" "He knew the reason why Gong Xichu suddenly left the camp without permission,

"It's not." Gong Xichu shook his head and told everything about the two days he had been gone. After all, one of the two people in front of him is a master he respects, and the other is an uncle who has grown up with him for many years, and they have experienced life and death together countless times, in a sense, Gongxi Chu's feelings for them are deeper.

After listening to Gong Xichu's words, Yuan Shuai and Vice General Xu were very surprised, and after looking at each other, they spoke at the same time:

"You said that the secret weapon used by the Bang people can be exploded?"

"You gave all your money to that woman?"

Looking at the two elders who were like fathers and uncles, Gong Xichu nodded with a wry smile, and handed the musket he had won from his arms to Yuan Shuai, "This is the tool that can send out that kind of hidden weapon, I haven't understood it after studying it for a long time." After the competition, Smithone's attendant sent the musket to Gong Xichu, and in his opinion, he was a downright person, and he would naturally admit it if he lost. Gong Xichu was a little reluctant to accept the things of this person who watched his woman, but he was very curious about the musket, and as a person who had experienced its power firsthand, he knew very well what the result would be if this weapon could be used in large quantities in war.

Seeing that Gong Xichu turned to talk to Yuan Shuai about this weapon called a musket, Vice General Xu was a little anxious, and asked with a gap: "Why did you give that house to that woman?" Didn't she sneak away with people? ”
