Chapter 80: Drunken Absurdity
Su Fengxian helped Shi Ziling into her room, and when Xiaohong saw the two of them coming back, she hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Although Shi Ziling drank a lot of wine, fortunately, the true yuan was profound, and although he was seven or eight points drunk, his mind was still sober.
After arriving at Su Fengxian's room and sitting down, Shi Ziling said: "Sister Fengxian, I'm not drunk, just help me make a cup of tea, I'll rest for a while, and then I can go back." ”
Su Fengxian said angrily: "What's wrong with me here, you have to go back in a hurry, don't you want to go to Su Xiaoxiao again?"
Shi Ziling frowned and said, "Sister Fengxian, why did you get involved with Little Miss Su again? I don't have anything with her at all, today Aunt Thirteen specially invited her to accompany me and Nangong Xia, didn't she come either?"
Su Fengxian said: "Maybe people just want to accompany you alone, and don't want to accompany Nangong Xia?"
"Don't guess, I'll be honest, not only did I not want to see her, but I was a little afraid to meet her. Shi Ziling said.
Xiaohong said: "Childe said that he laughed, which man in the world was not haunted by Su Xiaoxiao when he saw her, and you still said that you were afraid of seeing her, and you didn't deceive us like this!"
"If you don't believe it, there's no way, how can I lie to you two life-savers. Shi Ziling smiled bitterly.
Su Fengxian said: "You have a mouthful of a life-saving benefactor, if you really treat us as a benefactor, you will obediently stay for me tonight, let me and Xiaohong serve you well, otherwise you are a bad man with no conscience, I will hate you to death!"
Xiao Hong pursed her lips and snickered when she heard this, and her face couldn't help but have two red clouds.
Shi Ziling was very entangled in his heart, secretly wondering whether to use the "dementor" to charm them again, or simply point to the acupoints of the two of them and slip away?
Su Fengxian glanced at Xiao Hong, and Xiao Hong blushed and said, "Childe, let me go to bed for you." ”
As he spoke, he started to dress Shi Ziling.
Shi Ziling hurriedly grabbed her little hand, but Xiaohong threw herself into his arms, hugged his waist tightly and snuggled up to his chest and refused to let go.
Su Fengxian smiled and took off her shirt, revealing her plump and slender figure and smooth and delicate skin, and stepped forward to pull up Shi Ziling and drag it to the embroidery bed.
Shi Ziling's face was red, and he couldn't shake Xiaohong off with force, so he had no choice but to shoot first and point at Su Fengxian's acupoint.
Su Fengxian froze in place after being hit by the acupoint, unable to move, only feeling sour in her heart, and couldn't help shedding two lines of tears.
Xiaohong was shocked that something was wrong, and when she looked up and saw Su Fengxian standing in front of her with tears in her eyes, she couldn't help but feel very sad, and said to Shi Ziling in a trembling voice: "Son, do you dislike the two of us?"
Shi Ziling looked at Su Fengxian who was standing naked in front of him, and then looked at Xiaohong who was in his arms, seeing the sad appearance of the two, he couldn't bear it in his heart, and he sighed and said: "Well, I am destined to have a fate with you two life-saving benefactors, alas, let you eat me well." ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and unlocked Su Fengxian's acupoint.
Su Fengxian burst into tears and laughed, jumped forward, and kissed Shi Ziling on the face, Xiaohong cried with joy, and tightly pressed her delicate body into his arms.
Shiziling nephrite was in his arms, and Su Fengxian's trembling Feng Ru rubbed against him from time to time, plus he was already eight points drunk, and he felt that his blood was full of blood for a while, so he picked up the two of them and put them on the big bed.
The two women let out an exclamation in unison, and then they entangled Shi Ziling with four hands and four feet, Shi Ziling had no choice but to let the two women take off their clothes, and Su Fengxian had already pasted her soft and bewitching delicate body.
Shi Ziling sighed lightly, stretched his arms and hugged the two into his arms, and for a while, the spring tide in the room surged, and the sound was boundless......
There are few pilgrims in Huilongguan, and the fortune-telling stall placed by the white-bearded old Taoist priest Kong Mingzi under the big tree has not been cared for, but Kong Mingzi does not care, and lies his head on the table and dozes off by himself.
Seeing that the sun was gradually setting in the west, and the day seemed to pass like this, suddenly a black carrier pigeon fluttered its wings and flew into the Huilong Temple, and after flying a few laps in the view, it stopped on the table where the old Taoist priest gave fortune telling.
Ku Mingzi raised her head when she heard the sound, and seemed a little surprised to see the carrier pigeon on the table.
He turned his head to look around, and it was deserted in the back of the Dragon Temple, and no one noticed him. The old Taoist priest stood up and stretched, then grabbed the carrier pigeon in his hand, picked up the flag with "fortune telling" on the side of the table, and walked to his bedroom behind the Taoist temple.
The old Taoist priest returned to his room, closed the door, put down the flag in his hand, and examined the pigeon in his hand for a while, before removing a thin bamboo pipe from the pigeon's right paw. He poured out a note from the bamboo tube, unfolded it and read it, and then crumpled it into pieces.
He then poured some corn out of a jar and fed it to the pigeon, and when the pigeon had finished eating, he released it out of the house. After circling in the air a few times, the pigeon flew westward.
The old Taoist priest returned to the room and took out a black cane from under the bed, held it in his hand, and slowly walked out of Huilongguan.
On this day, Lord Su of the city guard held a banquet in the mansion to entertain Nangong Xia, the head of the Nangong family, accompanied by Duanmu Hong, the head of the Duanmu family, as well as important figures of Songhu City's official and military officials, the two garrison lords Ma Dai, Chen Gongzhao and Zhao Xiong Gu Fei, the commander of the city defenders, were also present.
Shi Ziling, as the most influential figure in Songhu City recently, was also accompanying him, and he was also the only one among all the lieutenant generals of the city defenders to attend.
Of course, for his presence, everyone felt that it was right, and it was normal for a big master who could be on par with or even better than the new generation of "Sword Queen" Ye Zhenzhen to attend such an occasion, although his position was only a deputy general.
Nangong Xia is the most powerful figure in the south, Su Bairen naturally attaches great importance to him, and the officials under him also hope to have many cooperation with the Nangong family in the future.
Although Duanmu Hong felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he also understood that under the current situation, Li Yuan in the west was becoming more and more powerful, except for Xiahou Yuan in the north, who had the capital to fight with him, and the other major places did not have the strength to resist Li Yuan independently.
The imperial court was mediocre and corrupt, and there was no effective curbing measure for the rapid expansion of Li Yuan's power, and various localities had to unite to form a corresponding trend in order to protect themselves, so that even if Li Yuan had the intention to expand his power in the southeast direction, he had to have some scruples.
Nangong Xia's eldest son, Nangong Bo, is currently the city guard of Narcissus City, the largest town in the south, and is equivalent to Su Bairen in terms of official position, and is also a local first-class official, but he has nearly 100,000 military horses under his command, and he has more troops than Songhu City.
Su Bairen had long hoped that Songhu City could echo Nangong Bo's Narcissus City, although the two cities were far apart, they were both strategic towns in the east and south, and if the defenders of these two big cities reached an agreement on an offensive and defensive alliance, it would have a great impact on some of the smaller cities around them.
In the event of a war, each small city government will make its own judgment according to the situation of these two big cities, if these two are willing to work together to resist the enemy and form a southeast echo trend, then no matter how strong the enemy is, he will not dare to go deep alone.
After all, in terms of the strength and defensive capabilities of these two big cities, no matter how strong the enemy is, it is impossible to break through them in a short time, and once they cannot be attacked for a long time, if the other side leads the rescue team in time, plus the support of some small cities around them, then the pressure on the enemy after the formation of internal and external attacks will be very huge.
At the banquet, Su Bairen frankly explained the pros and cons to Nangong Xia, and talked about the advantages of the east and the south joining forces against the strong enemy in the northwest.
To Su Bairen's surprise, Nangong Xia very readily expressed his deep agreement with the cooperation intention between the southeast and the south, and promised to discuss with his son Nangong Bo after he went back to implement the specific cooperation plan, and also put forward many suggestions.
For example, in the event of a war, how should the two sides maintain contact, where it is more appropriate to deploy troops and horses, and which route will be faster to send troops to rescue, etc.
Su Bairen and his subordinate officials couldn't imagine that Nangong Xia would cooperate so much, not only did they not mention any conditions, but also helped them with advice, and they were very excited. With the southern army in response, it would be very difficult for any enemy army to take the east in one fell swoop.
Shi Ziling's cooperation with Nangong Xia is not unexpected, when drinking in Deyue Tower last night, the two have already made a thorough analysis of the future situation, Nangong Xia has a clear understanding of the general trend, and has long made up his mind to cooperate with the east.
Originally, Nangong Xia was worried that Duanmu Hong would not be able to be used, and there was no heroic figure with appeal in the east, but the rise of Shi Ziling strengthened his belief, which was actually one of the purposes of his visit to Songhu City this time. Su Bairen's suggestion was exactly what he wanted, and the two sides hit it off and had a very pleasant conversation.
After the end, the two sides unanimously agreed that after Nangong Xia returned, the intention of the two sides would be implemented as soon as possible, and the two places would increase personnel exchanges in the future.
And Nangong Xia also promised that in the event of an unexpected situation, he was even willing to take action in person to deal with a possible crisis.
With the guarantee of these two masters in the southeast, everyone is relieved. After all, even if there are thousands of troops, it is almost impossible to stop a master like them from breaking through.
After the banquet, Su Bairen personally sent Nangong Xia to the door, and then Nangong Xia took the four entourages back to the mansion where he was staying, and the big and small officials also went home separately.
Shi Ziling returned to Yu's house, and after some washing, he changed into clean clothes, and wanted to go to see Yu Yulan and Xiaohui, but he felt a little embarrassed when he thought of his absurdity after drinking in Deyue Tower last night.
He was about to meditate for a night to hone his skills, when Yu Wei hurriedly came in and said, "Ziling, Master Su just sent someone to tell you to go back quickly, it seems that something has happened!"
Shi Ziling was taken aback, and hurriedly rushed to the front hall, recognizing that it was the housekeeper of the Su Mansion who came to find him, so he asked, "What's so urgent?"
The housekeeper said: "Just now Nangong Xia was ambushed on the way back, and all four of his subordinates were killed, although Nangong Xia killed several killers, he was also seriously injured, but he just escaped into the mansion of the city guard, and now he is unconscious. ”
"Lord Su was so furious that he ordered the entire city to be immediately under martial law, and the assassin must be caught. It is estimated that several of the assassins are quite strong, so General Shi is asked to hurry back to Su Mansion to help. ”
