Chapter 95: Lonely and Thirsty (4.3k Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Sir?"

The charming concubine saw that Liu Xiao's face was wrong, and she was a little flustered.

Liu Rixin glared at the concubine on the bed fiercely, and the concubine retracted the quilt in fright.

It can't just be left at that! ’

'Tomorrow, I will sell this little concubine to the little king next door for two hundred taels!' ’

If that kid dares not to buy it, our Lao Liu will count all the dirty things that his ancestors and grandchildren have done for three generations and make it public! Hum! ’

In this era, the husband and the wife are in the same position, if the husband wants to divorce his wife, he needs to write a letter of divorce, and he must also list which of the 'seven outs' the wife has committed, if the wife is not guilty, she must not divorce the wife for no reason, otherwise the wife can go to the official.

Concubines, on the other hand, are different.

Concubines are not protected by the law, and these concubines can be abandoned by the male owner at will at a critical moment, without the need to write a letter of divorce, and even they can be bought and sold as goods.

For example, the famous Su Dongpo.

According to historical records, Mr. Dongpo accepted many concubines when he was proud of the spring breeze, and when he was down, because he was too busy to take care of himself, he couldn't afford to raise so many concubines, so he gave away many concubines, two of which were pregnant and were sent out by him.

'Hmm... Don't lose money! ’

Thinking of this, Liu Rixin directly took out a health pill and swallowed it, paused, perhaps because he felt that one was not enough, so he took another one and swallowed it.

Then he got up and walked to the concubine on the bed with a full of anger.

Dare to cuckold me!

Today, I have three Liu Rixin in my seventies, so I will call you the sky without a road, and the earth without a door!

…………………

Taisun Mansion, Stargazing Tower.

Zhu Xiongying came back from the Qianqing Palace, which was actually a moment's work.

Regarding the matter of Lao Zhu Shengsheng, Liu Rixin is already counting, and he believes that since this old man dares to use the 'self-palace' to assure himself, there must be a way to press the bottom of the box.

At this moment, the archmage was lying in the rocking chair of the stargazing platform, staring at the night sky, thinking about the cultivation of the Great Shifting Technique.

He can now teleport ninety-nine miles with one thought, but even if he is trapped in the threshold of ninety-nine miles, he can't cross it.

Could it be that all spell advancements must have a systematically released task?

That's too restrictive.

No, it should be that the opportunity was not grasped.

Zhu Xiongying suddenly thought of the fire spell.

Because of the need for frequent alchemy, and the most important part of refining the elixir is fire control, the spell of fire spell is often used, and the task given by the system is only to cultivate to proficiency, but Zhu Xiongying Judging from the introduction of fire spells, he has obviously reached the realm of mastery.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Qinhuai River to burn ten thousand snakes with a fire curse.

Zhu Xiongying looked at the detailed introduction and cultivation methods of the Great Shifting Technique over and over again, but still didn't find the problem after all.

Well?

Na Ring flickered slightly.

Zhu Xiongying subconsciously probed into the divine sense, and saw the flickering cloud-piercing bow in the mountains of pills, magic weapons and other objects.

It is precisely because of the abnormality of the cloud piercing bow that it will cause the ring to shine.

What's going on?

Zhu Xiongying suddenly remembered the arrow he shot during the day, and he didn't know who the arrow fell on, anyway, Zhu Xiongying was thinking about Zhu Laosi at that time.

Taking the Cloud Piercing Bow out of the ring, he saw that the bowstring slightly emitted purple light, which made the archmage even more puzzled.

This bow is asking for merit from itself?

Could it be that you really shot?!

Zhu Xiongying raised his hand a little, and in an instant, a circular 4K light curtain appeared above him, and the picture inside it was the scene of Zhu Laosi, the king of Yan, grinning and changing the dressing.

Sure enough, it hit!

This bow is kind of interesting.

Zhu Xiongying suddenly became interested, and he called up the specific instructions of the Ten Thousand Miles Cloud Piercing Bow, and finally figured out where this thing was located.

Thousands of miles through the cloud bow, with the master's mind turned into an arrow, but thousands of miles to track the target, do not shoot and never stop.

In one day, you can shoot three arrows.

"Zhu Si, Zhu Si, it's no wonder that you're lonely."

Zhu Xiongying stood up and stretched his waist.

Then he grabbed it with his hand and grabbed the Thousands of Miles Cloud Piercing Bow in his hand.

The last arrow was shot yesterday evening, and now it is past twelve o'clock, which is a new day, that is, three arrows can be shot today.

Zhu Xiongying bent his bow and turned his mind into an arrow.

'Hugh'!

An arrow flew out.

Then, without pausing, he pulled the bowstring again and shot a second arrow.

When Zhu Xiongying subconsciously wanted to shoot the third arrow, he thought that he was going to travel to Yunnan next, so he gave up, maybe it would be useful.

"Zhu Laosi, I hope you have a great life."

Zhu Xiongying grinned and silently prayed for the fourth uncle.

I hope he can turn evil into good fortune.

The archmage who had yin Zhu Di's two handfuls was in a good mood, just as he was about to continue pondering the Great Shift Technique.

"Your Highness."

Xiaobao bypassed the screen and slid the door inside.

"Say."

"Your Highness, Lord Xia Yuanji is visiting outside the mansion, he was originally afraid of disturbing His Highness's rest, but seeing the stargazing tower brightly lit, he dared to meet him, as if there was something urgent."

Xiao Bao said softly, it could be seen that Xiao Bao also had a look of fatigue on his face, if it weren't for the fact that His Royal Highness Taisun hadn't gone to bed yet, he would have gone to sleep in the next room long ago.

"The Sword Comes"

Natsuhara Yoshi?

Still working so late?

Zhu Xiongying couldn't help but sigh, if our Ming Dynasty is such an excellent employee, why worry about the world.

"Xuan."

Xiaobao bowed and said yes.

In about half an hour, Xia Yuanji, who was staring at the two panda-eyed people, entered the stargazing tower.

Looking at him like this, it looks like he has stayed up for many nights, and he has lost a lot of weight compared to the last time we met.

"Your Highness, the minister received the essence of His Highness's mantra last time, and he has drawn up twenty-one new rules and regulations, and I would like to ask Your Highness to take a look."

Xia Yuanji waved his hand.

I saw that there were two heads of households behind him, each holding a pile of concerts that were high enough to cover their faces.

Zhu Xiongying's scalp was numb in an instant, why did you write a doctoral dissertation?!

"Believe in you."

Zhu Xiongying gave Xia Yuanji an encouraging look.

Xia Yuanji was suddenly excited.

"Your Highness, please take a look."

Zhu Xiongying's brows furrowed, I said I believed you, and I still look at a fart?

But because of Xia Yuanji's fiery eyes and the dedication of not knowing how many big nights he had stayed up, Zhu Xiongying symbolically took a piece of music and nodded seriously with a serious face.

"Very good."

Xiaobao whispered in Zhu Xiongying's ear at this time.

"Your Highness, it's the other way around."

Zhu Xiongying paused, and then hurriedly closed the folds, but Xia Yuanji, who was excited at the moment, did not see it.

"However, I want to remind you a few points."

As soon as Xia Yuanji heard the sound, he immediately bowed down and waited to listen.

"There is nothing wrong with the essence of the market being freedom."

"But at the same time, it is also interests, competition, supply and demand, and finally, it also needs to stand on the overall level of control and planning."

"In this way, the whole market can survive."

Xia Yuanji listened to the words of His Royal Highness Taisun, and his face showed amazement, and he suddenly had an epiphany.

"Weichen has to listen to His Highness's words, and it is better to read ten years!"

"Your Highness, the minister has new ideas in his heart, these new rules are not perfect, after the minister goes back to modify and add, he will submit it to His Highness!"

"Retire!"

Xia Yuanji was so excited that he hurriedly went back to the household department to continue to explode his liver and work overtime.

The two heads of the household who followed him wanted to die at the moment.

Can you let me go back and dig a well?

I haven't drunk water in a long time.

Zhu Xiongying looked at the departing Xia Yuanji, and after a pause, he smiled dumbly.

This guy is a work maniac.

But a madman is a maniac, only a madman deserves a place in this Ming giant ship that is about to go at full speed.

"Send it over."

Zhu Xiongying shook it casually, and a white vial fell into Xiaobao's hands, he didn't want Xia Yuanji to explode his liver and lose his liver.

"Yes."

Xiaobao saluted and hurriedly chased after Xia Yuanji.

After another quarter of an hour, when Xiaobao came back, Zhu Xiongying got up and stretched his waist.

"Summoning Xiao Wu."

Then there was a pause.

"Well, Cai Ling is also summoned."

Zhu Xiongying walked to the goose down bed and fell down directly.

Today, I'm really tired.

This great transfer technique not only needs to consume energy, but also needs to consume mental power, which is really lacking.

Not long after, I was awakened from a deep sleep in the middle of the night, and I also dressed up a little and the general Xiao Wu and Cai Ling both arrived.

As soon as the second daughter entered the stargazing building, she saw Zhu Xiongying leaning against the bed and closing her eyes.

"See Your Highness for concubines."

Salute in unison.

Seeing that Zhu Xiongying didn't reply, the two daughters glanced at each other, and Cai Ling asked out loud, and the cold queen voice said humble words, which was quite wonderful.

"Your Highness is tired?"

The same question, in the opinion of Cai Ling and Xiao Wu, should be answered as before.

Zhu Xiongying opened her eyes slightly and looked at Cai Ling and Xiao Wu.

The styles of the two daughters are completely different, one is the cold queen, which makes people can't help but feel conquest, and the other is pure and young, which makes people feel pity and pity.

But one thing is the same, the body is all first-class great!

"No, I'm thirsty."

Cai Ling and Xiao Wu were both stunned, and the two girls glanced at each other, not knowing what His Highness meant by this.

It was Cai Ling who was the first to reminisce, and the cold queen's face flushed, and Xiao Wu on the side also reacted when she saw this, and couldn't help but bow her head in shame.

…………………

In the north, the study of Yanwangfu in Beiping.

Zhu Laosi had just changed the medicine, and he was in a very unhappy mood at this time.

Although this arrow did not hit the vital point, it also made him very uncomfortable, at least there was no way to drink for half a month, for Zhu Di, who had been in the military since he was a child.

The days without alcohol can be described as torment.

"Dad, your injuries are okay."

Zhu Dapang pushed the door into the study and carefully sat down opposite Zhu Laosi.

Now at this point, even the landlord's dog has slept, and Zhu Dapang has gone to bed early, but his father has a call, so he has to get up from the bed and come to see him late at night.

Zhu Laosi glanced at the eldest son in front of him, who was also his son.

Deep under his eyes, he was somewhat unsatisfactory.

In his heart, he prefers the second child Zhu Gaoxu.

The reason is also simple, the second child is like when he was young, brave and good at fighting, and can ride a horse on the battlefield to kill.

But this boss has been weak since he was a child, and he is even more obese, and his feet are a little lame.

Even in his early years, Zhu Di had the idea of changing the second child to the prince, but was resolutely denied by the princess Xu Miaoyun, and Xu Miaoyun gave Zhu Di three reasons.

Whether young or old, it will become civil strife.

Although Gao Xu is brave, he doesn't like to read, his temperament is reckless, and he is not suitable for being a master.

The three children under his knees are all compatriots, and they are all their own children, and they should be treated equally.

Zhu Laosi has always had a deep relationship with Princess Xu Miaoyun, so naturally he will not ignore Xu Miaoyun's meaning, but the idea of changing the second child in his heart has not been eradicated.

"Daddy's fine."

"Gao Xu, I called you over late at night, because I suddenly thought of military spending......"

“…………”

Outside the study, Ji Gang stood on the side of the door, seemingly guarding, but in fact trying to hear the conversation inside the door clearly.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a bright light in the sky.

Ji Gang subconsciously looked towards the sky in the distance, only to see two purple gold streamers piercing the sky, and when they reached the sky above Beiping Mansion, a parabola dived downward.

………………

In the south, under the walls of Kaihua Mansion, there are already piles of corpses.

But Annan's army still hasn't stopped, they have been attacking for several hours in a row, and all of them are like chickens, and they have to take civilization.

Above the city walls.

Mu Ying's armor was stained with blood.

Even though he was fifty-three, he still took his second son Mu Cheng and led three thousand elite horsemen out of the city to kill a wave, although it had a deterrent effect, it could not affect the overall situation.

"Father, I'm afraid Kaihua City will not be able to hold it."

Mu Chun stood behind Mu Ying, looking at the Annan army that was getting closer and closer under the city.

"Hmm."

It's not a matter of the military level of Mu Ying's father and son, but that Kaihua City is a small city, and according to Mu Ying's previous plan, it would be good to be able to resist the three waves of siege by the Annan Army.

And this is already the fifth wave of siege of the Annan Army, which has far exceeded expectations.

"Order the whole army to retreat in an orderly manner and retreat to Lin'an Mansion."

Mu Ying ordered that the city of Lin'an Mansion was relatively strong, and in Mu Ying's estimate, it was not a big problem to hold for half a month, and he had already sent a letter to the surrounding political secretaries, asking them to transfer a part of the guards to come, so that they could counterattack at that time.

"Father! Oh no! ”

At this moment, Mu Cheng, who was covered in blood and tall in stature, rushed quickly.

"The spies came to report that there are a large number of war elephants on the narrow road leading to Lin'an Province, which should be borrowed from Laos."

Mu Ying's brows furrowed slightly, these toasts were really not honest one by one, and they accepted Hu Yiyuan's gift, and they were stumbling on themselves both openly and secretly.

The terrain of Yunnan is complex, and the altitude difference is huge, especially in the Hengduan Mountains, between Kaihua and Lin'an, there is only one narrow road that can accommodate large-scale marches.

It's not that Mu Ying didn't arrange spies in advance, but that those Tusi are self-aligned in the territory, and the war elephants secretly enter from the dense forests of Laos, even if they are spies, it is difficult to find them in time.

Mu Ying understood why Hu Yiyuan asked Luchuan to borrow an elephant, not to fight, but to block Mu Ying's retreat.

Judging by his plan, this is an intention to kill Mu Ying directly in Kaihua Mansion.

After all, in this part of Yunnan, as soon as Mu Ying died, it was basically chaotic.

The Tusi who were subdued by Mu Ying will inevitably rebel, and it is not impossible for the Hu clan to take the opportunity to occupy Yunnan and create another Dali or Nanzhao.

"What's the panic?"

Mu Ying's expression was calm.

"If you want to fight, then you will fight."

Originally, Mu Ying wanted to rely on the city defense to save troops as much as possible, and did not want to fight head-on.

But now it seems that there is no choice.

As for fear? Joke!

Mu Ying led 30,000 iron horsemen and dared to fight with Silunfa's 300,000 troops.

………………

Ying Tianfu, early morning glimmer.

When the sky was still starry and the first glimmer of light broke in the sky, Zhu Xiongying had already gotten up and glanced at Xiao Wu and Medusa, who were already tired and weak behind him.

Sigh in my heart, how lonely it is to be invincible.

Perhaps only the divine beast Bai Amber that descended from the sky could fight against it.

Suddenly, I was looking forward to that day.

Zhu Xiongying walked to the stargazing platform, looked at the light night, the stars in the sky, and took a deep breath.

I'm full of drinks, it's time to get to work.

Walk you!

In an instant, the archmage's form disappeared in place.
