After the dinner.

Hua Xiong took Zhen Mi and Gao Shun back to his residence.

He sent Zhen Mi to the boudoir.

The night is deep, the red candles in the house are flickering, and the atmosphere is ambiguous and charming.

Hua Xiong coughed lightly, "What, Zhen Mi, you can rest well." ”

Zhen Miqiao's face was slightly red, and she said softly, "Husband, don't you live here?" ”

"We don't have a name yet, and after we go to Yecheng to see your mother, it's not too late to live together."

Hua Xiong put on a righteous and awe-inspiring look.

Zhen Mi's heart was filled with indescribable emotion, she took Hua Xiong's hand and kissed him lightly on the face.

"Thank you, husband, for being so considerate of the concubine."

Don't.

I'm just modest, but you'll keep me.

Hua Xiong couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, but seeing that Zhen Mi didn't have the slightest intention of keeping himself, he had to walk out helplessly.

The door closed softly behind him.

Looking out the window at the bright moonlight, blowing a cool breeze.

Hua Xiong was helpless.

What do you say you're pretending to be, that's good.

He sighed and went back to his room.

The battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan has subsided.

It's time to leave Longminato.

The next day, Hua Xiong woke up early in the morning.

He ordered his men, pack their luggage, and be ready to hit the road at any time.

At this moment, a detachment of cavalry hurried over from a distance.

The military general who took the lead, the white horse silver spear, was Zhao Yun.

"Phew."

Zhao Yun turned over and dismounted, and saluted respectfully towards Huaxiong.

"Meet Master Taishi."

"Excuse me." Hua Xiong stepped forward with a smile, helped Zhao Yun up, and said affectionately, "Zilong, don't need so many courtesies in the future." ”

"The master is honorable, how can he be rude to his humble position."

Zhao Yun said seriously.

The more Hua Xiong looked at Zhao Yun, the more he liked it in his heart.

He can't be the most perfect man in the Three Kingdoms.

"Then please, keep me safe along the way."

Hua Xiong said with a smile.

"This is where the duty of the lowly lies, and I dare not slack off in the slightest."

Zhao Yun said in a deep voice.

"Alright, let's go."

Hua Xiong waved his hand.

The convoy is officially on the road.

The carriage that Zhen Mi was riding was at the end of the line.

In front was a thousand white horse servants led by Zhao Yun, and in the rear were five hundred wolf army cavalry led by Gao Shun.

Fifteen hundred horsemen, all on tall horses and in armor.

The momentum alone is staggering.

Therefore, there are no blind bandits to provoke along the way.

"Gao Shun, what do you think of this General Zhao Zilong?"

Hua Xiong chuckled and asked Gao Shun next to him.

Gao Shun groaned slightly, nodded and said,

"My lord, this General Zilong is definitely a rare talent.

Along the way, whether it was marching or camping, this person did not have the slightest carelessness, but personally investigated the situation to ensure that no one was there.

And judging from his command, this person is also good at the art of war.

Such a talent, staying under Gongsun Zhan, is just a small cavalry captain, which is really a waste of talent.

If there is a chance, the lord must recruit him. ”

Hua Xiong smiled slightly.

Nonsense, Zhao Yun is a first-class military general in history, nicknamed the victorious general, what about messing with you?

Especially since he is loyal.

If I have the chance, of course I will recruit him.

Hua Xiong stared at Zhao Yun, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Zhao Yun, who was investigating the situation in front, only felt a little chilly behind him, and couldn't help but glance around strangely.

As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens.

Zhao Yun rode back on horseback,

"My lord, if it's not early today, do you want to find a place to rest?"

Hua Xiong nodded.

So Zhao Yun ordered someone to find a place with a very good geographical location and set up camp.

The people lit a bonfire and began to boil water for cooking.

Hua Xiong ordered a few maids to prepare food for Zhen Mi and took Gao Shun to the bonfire.

Zhao Yun was having dinner with a few of his subordinates.

Seeing Hua Xiong coming over, he quickly stood up,

"Your Excellency."

"You're welcome, sit down."

Hua Xiong sat beside Zhao Yun with a smile.

He casually looked into Zhao Yun's bowl, only to see that they were eating dry food and drinking gruel.

He couldn't help but be slightly stunned,

"Zilong, why do you eat dry food, but the food prepared for me is minced meat?"

Zhao Yun smiled,

"The status of an adult is noble, how dare you compare with an adult?"

What a nice man.

Hua Xiong admired Zhao Yun more and more in his heart.

He picked up Zhao Yun's dry food and ate it in a big gulp.

"Your Excellency, you ...... You can't eat this. ”

Zhao Yun tried to stop Hua Xiong, but was blocked by him.

"You and I are both human beings, why can't I eat when you eat?" Hua Xiong said with a smile.

This move immediately gained the favor of the White Horse servants led by Zhao Yun.

Gao Shun couldn't stop nodding.

For the sake of sharing weal and woe with his subordinates, eating and living together, how can he not be loved by his subordinates?

After dinner, everyone chatted casually.

"Zilong, do you have any dreams?"

Hua Xiong said with a smile.

"The greatest dream of the lowly office is that the world can stop strife, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

Zhao Yun looked at the night in the distance and said in a trance.

"That's what I mean." Hua Xiong looked at Zhao Yun with blazing eyes, and said softly, "My goal is to quell the strife everywhere in the world, Zilong, are you willing to be loyal to me?" ”

A hesitant look appeared on Zhao Yun's face, and he shook his head only after half a sound.

Hua Xiong sighed a little disappointed, "Okay, maybe in Zilong's heart, I'm not a master." ”

"My lord, it's not what you think."

Zhao Yun said sincerely,

"During the period of lowly allegiance to Lord Gongsun, I heard about the heroic deeds of the Lord who killed Pan Feng and Yu She, and fought against Liu Guanzhang and the others.

Later, I heard that the adults had recovered Liangzhou and Yanzhou one after another, and I had already admired the adults in my heart.

But the lowly position has now chosen to be loyal to Lord Gongsun.

Loyal ministers don't care about the two masters, and it's really difficult to promise adults. ”

Looking at Zhao Yun's sincere face, Hua Xiong's heart was clear.

Also, with Zhao Yun's loyal character, he really can't do what Lu Bu did.

Zhao Yun in history also waited until after Gongsun Zhan perished before he went to Liu Bei.

"Well, in that case, then I won't force you anymore."

Hua Xiong smiled and patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder.

Zhao Yun nodded with relief and said gratefully, "Thank you for your understanding." ”

Gao Shun on the side said with a smile,

"Zilong, seeing that you are burly, you must also practice martial arts often, why don't you and I have a fight?"

"Still not."

Zhao Yun shook his head.

"Here's one, Captain."

"yes, don't be modest, let's see your marksmanship."

After eating, they were idle and bored, so everyone coaxed.

"Since everyone wants to see it, Zilong, you don't have to be modest."

Hua Xiong said with a smile.

Even Hua Xiong spoke, and Zhao Yun no longer continued to prevaricate.

He picked up his spear and walked with Gao Shun to the clearing.
