Chapter 271: Fate

Speaking of this, Nie An's face was a little red.

"In fact, it was not like this at the beginning, before the arrival of the Zhenyao army, Canghanwei fought several fierce battles, suffered heavy casualties, although the north gate and the west city gate have not been breached, but the people in the city are panicked, there are people ready to move their families south, and the people outside the city dare not enter the city, fortunately, at that time, the Yaomu army was bent on capturing Cangcheng, taking Cangcheng as the entrance, going south, and then capturing Pingcheng, so they did not consider dividing their forces to occupy the villages and towns outside the city, and the people outside the city were saved."

Nie An showed a look of happiness on his face, "At that time, the commander made the lord exhausted, while he wanted to defend the city desperately, he was also worried that the Yaomu army would not be able to attack for a long time, and he would vent his anger on the people of the villages and towns outside the city, after all, they had not done the slaughter of the village before, but fortunately, some of the villagers in the northwest were relocated in advance this time, and the casualties were not too great." ”

Geng Xingshuang and Zhu Yan listened to these things, although they had never experienced it personally, but it was conceivable that the people in the war, the environment in which they would die at any time, and the state of mind that they were always in a state of panic, their lives were miserable.

Seeing the reluctance and compassion on the faces of the two of them, Nie An hurriedly continued: "Later, General Zhu led the Zhenyao army to arrive in time, and won two battles in a row, which not only severely frustrated the spirit of the Yaomu army, but most importantly, greatly boosted the morale of our army, as well as the confidence of the people inside and outside the city to win this battle and keep Cangcheng. ”

Zhu Yan nodded, "Is the Yaomu Army still outside the North City Gate and the West City Gate now?" ”

"They have been driven away a long time ago, and now even if the north and west gates are wide open, not a single Yao curtain soldier will dare to come in, of course, they can't get close to the city gate at all, because the camp of our Zhenyao army is now stationed outside the city, where they dare to get closer, they have already been broken."

"That ......" is a great victory, and the class teacher can return to the court.

After only saying one word, Zhu Yan paused, the commander of the Zhenyao Army will be his father, and his father must have his own reasons for doing this, how can she question it in front of outsiders.

Nie An seemed to see Zhu Yan's thoughts, and he grinned, "General Zhu and the commander make their own calculations, don't worry about Miss Zhu, No, we're here." ”

Geng Xingshuang looked in the direction of Nie An's finger, and sure enough, he saw a Zhumen mansion with the word "Xinfu" written on it, and the little guy on the door greeted Nie An when he saw it.

When Geng Xingshuang and Zhu Yan got out of the carriage, they saw a lady dressed in a Hunan placket dark pattern brocade top, ochre red pleated groups, combed a round bun, and inserted a red gold inlaid ruby begonia hairpin, walked out with a smile, followed by two maids.

"This is Mrs. Xin!" Nie An hurriedly introduced the two.

Geng Xingshuang and Zhu Yan hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, stood still in front of Mrs. Xin, and then saluted together, without waiting for the two to say the words of the ceremony, Mrs. Xin had already held their hands one by one, and said enthusiastically: "I received a message from our master two days ago, and I learned that the two girls will come to live in our house, I have been looking forward to it, it's good to come now, it's good!" ”

Mrs. Xin said two "good" in a row, which shows that she should have heard about what happened to them, and now seeing the two of them standing here well, it is obvious that they are out of danger.

"Mrs. Law is worried." Zhu Yan said gratefully.

"Don't be so polite, come in, Xiao Nie, you can also come in and have a cup of tea."

Mrs. Xin pulled Geng Xingshuang and Zhu Yan into the door, and greeted Nie An again.

Nie An hurriedly waved his hand, "I can't go in, I still have to rush to see the general." ”

In the green cloth carriage behind, there was their biggest trophy this time, the favorite son of the Yaomu Emperor, the fifth prince of the Yaomu Dynasty, Goluo.

There are also a few bandits in Shazhai, these need to be decided in the future, although the two girls made a promise to the four bandits in Shazhai before, but there are preconditions, if they are not what they say, they have hurt people's lives, it is unforgivable, but even if they only rob property, it is a capital crime that can be avoided from the crime of living.

But there is no need to talk to Mrs. Xin about this.

When Nie An was leaving, he glanced back, Zhu Yan also happened to turn back, the two eyes collided in the air, and immediately moved away, Geng Xingshuang noticed Zhu Yan's red ears, and wanted to look back, but Zhu Yan grabbed him, "Let's go, we can't let Mrs. wait for us." ”

They almost didn't step on Mrs. Xin's heel.

Geng Xingshuang was amused in his heart, and his face was also brought out.

Zhu Yan turned his head and ignored her.

Nie An watched the slender figure walk into the vermilion gate and gradually disappear, and was about to turn around, when he heard his subordinate Tang Zhong on the side smile and said: "My lord, I will go back to the barracks in a while, do you want to wash your face first, shave your beard and then go to see General Zhu." ”

Nie An endured it, and finally couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his face, and then glanced at Tang Zhong with slanted eyes, "It's not that General Zhu hasn't seen me, can you still dislike my appearance?" ”

He is not bad-looking, okay, and some people praise him for being heroic and strong, and he is a good son.

Tang Zhong pretended to be cautious and asked, "That eldest girl Zhu and General Yang's fiancΓ©e are excellent friends, right?" ”

"You don't have eyes? What do you need to ask me about what you can see at a glance? Nie An glanced at Tang Zhong suspiciously, is he so sluggish, can he still ask for it? Is it still good enough to be your left and right hand?

Tang Zhong was suddenly doubted about his ability, and suddenly felt wronged, for the sake of his own career, he didn't dare to sell Guan Zi anymore, and he was busy saying the thoughts he was pondering in his heart, regardless of whether his thousands of adults could accept it or not.

"My lord, the subordinate means that the relationship between the eldest girl and General Yang is so good, General Zhu must also know that General Yang and Miss Geng are fiancΓ©es, and he can't wait for General Yang to get married, he will go to drink a glass of wine, and you and General Yang are brothers, General Yang will grow like that, and you are like this, General Zhu will inevitably have a gap in his heart......"

Nie An glared at Tang Zhong, "No wonder you don't see any growth in this kung fu, what are you thinking about all day long?" ”

As he spoke, he also reached out and pressed Tang Zhong's head, and pressed Tang Zhong forward, so that he didn't fall.

"The next plate is not stable enough, after returning to the barracks, I will squat for two more quarters of an hour every day."

Nie An calmly commented, strode forward, stepped on the horse's back, and walked towards the north city gate with the horse's gain, he touched his chin again, feeling that his belongings were missing one thing, without a mirror, his beard was not so neat, speaking of what he looked like, he was only taking a bath by the river, and he saw it vaguely through the water, and he didn't see it clearly, and he didn't remember it very clearly.

However, he saw the appearance of his junior brother clearly, and remembered it clearly, even if he was dressed in the same way as them, he was gray and dirty in battle, covered in blood, and his face, posture and demeanor were ...... Also...... How do you say that word, what cranes and what flocks, in short, it's just beautiful.

Not to mention, when he was wearing a gorgeous costume with a beautiful jade, he remembered that when he used to walk on the streets of Pingcheng, there were often girls who almost fell when they saw him.

If it is compared to appearance, although he doesn't remember his appearance very much, he thinks that he is worse than his junior brother, because he does not have the troubles of junior brother when he goes to the street.

However, he also has advantages, such as he is taller, stronger, and more mature than his junior brother, and I hope that General Zhu can see his advantages and compare him with others, not with his junior brother.

Nie An thought a little weakly.

Xinfu is very open, as soon as you enter the gate, there is a big courtyard in the middle of the cloister around you, the courtyard is different from other mansions, there are famous flowers and plants, rockery and flowing water are dotted, but it is very empty, except for a row of weapons racks on the side, the rest is nothing.

However, this is not the first time Geng Xingshuang has seen such an arrangement.

"Our master is a military general, and the layout in this house is rough, and it will only be a few days to wronged the two girls."

Mrs. Xin also lived in Ningdu City, so she naturally knew that the mansions of the powerful people in Ningdu City were either exquisite and chic, or rich and luxurious, in short, they were very good-looking, while their house was just a house composed of walls and rooms, without any decoration, and I don't know the habits that these two ladies from Ningdu City might live in, especially whether this eldest girl from the Guogong Mansion would be picky.

When she received Xin Tian's message, she thought about this problem, so when she received the news that Nie An sent someone in advance, and learned that the person would arrive in Cangcheng today, she dressed up well, and the house was too late and there was no way to clean it up, and she had to clean it up as the hostess.

Geng Xingshuang looked at Zhu Yan and found that she was a little distracted, and she didn't seem to hear the meaning of Mrs. Xin's words, nor did she notice the difference in this mansion.

"Where Mrs. said, we feel that this house is very good, open and bright, making people feel that their hearts are also stretched, such a spacious and atmospheric house, is complementing the magnificent world here, speaking of which, we have a friend in Ningdu City, the layout of her home is very similar to the house, we like it tightly, and often go to her house to disturb."

Geng Xingshuang said with a smile, secretly stabbing Zhu Yan's arm lightly, what is this person thinking, so engrossed.

Although Mrs. Xin felt that her family had a shallow foundation in the court and was not as good as the Zhenguo Mansion, so when she received Zhu Yan and Geng Xingshuang, she lowered her posture, but when she heard Geng Xingshuang say so politely and gave her and their family enough respect, she was naturally happy in her heart.

"Is it also the home of military generals?" Mrs. Xin asked.

Zhu Yan was stabbed by Geng Xingshuang like this, came back to her senses, heard Mrs. Xin's words, and recalled the conversation just now, she said: "It's the Jiang family, and Master Jiang is the current ......."

Zhu Yan was a little stuck, she knew the official position of the eldest prince Jiang, but she really didn't care much about Master Jiang, Geng Xingshuang continued: "Master Jiang was transferred to the military department as the director at the beginning of this year. ”

Mrs. Xin's eyes lit up slightly, and she asked a little excitedly: "The Jiang family you are talking about, but the Jiang Yuan family who lives in Yuqian Lane, her wife's maiden name is Wang, and she has a son...... Isn't her daughter's name Xuefu? ”

"Madame knows about the Jiang family?" Zhu Yan asked.

Geng Xingshuang felt that Mrs. Xin could tell everyone in the Jiang family clearly, not just knowing, but being very familiar.

Although she didn't mention Jiang Lianbu again, it was just because she was afraid that the two of them were girls, but listening to her voice, she obviously knew.

Sure enough, I heard Mrs. Xin laugh and say, "Why don't you know, Yanping is my cousin, and my maiden name is Yanwan." ”

When the two of them heard this, they felt that fate was really a wonderful thing, and Zhu Yan said happily: "We are very good friends with Sister Fu'er, and Sister Fu'er's kung fu is very good, even better than Gongzi Jiang." ”

Zhu Yan did not shy away from what she said, and Mrs. Xin laughed when she said, "You still praise her, Yanping is sad to death, give her a gentle and demure maid, hoping that she can get close to Zhu Zhechi, but she gave people a name, what is it called......"

"Hammer!" Geng Xingshuang couldn't help but answer, she was deeply impressed by the name Hammer.
