Chu Li was a little bored waiting, "You said that if the general doesn't come out all the time, do we have to wait like this forever?" He turned around and asked Liu Rui'er. "Of course, I must see the general today anyway. Liu Ruier is also very stubborn, she finally ran out, and after waiting for so long, how could she feel at ease if she didn't see each other.

Chu Li shrugged helplessly when he heard this, just wait, who will let himself be at a loss. As soon as he turned his head, he heard a suppressed cheer behind him, "Come out, come out." ”

In fact, Chu Li is also quite curious about the general, after all, boys want to be a hero.

Raising his eyes to look at the Governor's Mansion, two people walked out side by side, one of them was a little fat and slightly fat, with a literati posture and a little thinning hair. This should be the Metropolitan Governor, Chu Li said secretly, and then went to look at the other, just one glance, Chu Li felt a little nervous. Such a familiar feeling, a feeling of murderous intent and oppression that he would feel every day from his father for more than a decade.

Until the general walked away, Chu Li was still stunned in place, and his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

"Oh, I thought the general must be handsome and wise, who knew that it was so ordinary, and he wasn't as good-looking as my father. Liu Rui'er behind her stuck out her little tongue, a little unwilling.

"Hey, little beggar, why are you sweating so much, it's not very hot. Liu Ruier glanced at Chu Li and was a little surprised. "No, nothing, it's the first time I've seen a big person, I'm a little excited. Chu Li panicked, he didn't want to tell others about his father.

"Cut, this is called a big man? My father even took me into Beijing to meet the king. Liu Ruier proudly showed off her wings like a little peacock.

"Oh, yes. Seeing Chu Li's indifferent appearance for a long time, she felt a little bored and diverted the topic, "Little beggar, how do you solve the problem of food and accommodation next, should you really beg?"

"This... When Chu Li heard this, he remembered that he didn't have any money, and he didn't know any skills. "Would you like to consider coming to my house to work? Liu Rui'er squinted her eyes and guided her step by step, "But, you have to agree to my request." ”

Chu Li wiped his sweat with a rag that could no longer see the color, he had been a servant in Tianyan Tower for nine months, and in the end, Liu Ruier didn't think of what to let him do, so he owed it first.

Chu Li works here, on the one hand, to solve his own livelihood problems, on the other hand, Tianyanlou is the largest wine shop in Fu'an City, and there are many people who come and go every day.

"Have you heard, the iron-blooded army of the general of the expedition to the west has taken two more cities in a row. "Hahaha, the general of Zhengxi personally went out, how can there be any reason for failure. "The bustling diners in the restaurant discuss the same thing.

Three months ago, the general of Zhengxi led 100,000 iron-blooded troops to stop at Sanshui, the capital of Qi State, and the general rode out alone, throwing a thing in his hand to the city tower, and then laughed three times and ordered the army to attack the city.

In this battle, the state of Qi was defeated, the capital was trampled by iron cavalry, and the slightest resistance was wiped out, the princes and nobles of Qi were killed and wounded, and the civilians were displaced. According to the secret protection of the spies of other countries, the one who was thrown up the city tower by the general of the expedition to the west that day was the head of Luo Shui, the king of Qi!

Since this battle, the state of Qi has basically fallen, leaving only the cities to fight separately, and another neighbor of the state of Qi, the state of Yan, has also taken advantage of the chaos to send troops, and the remaining countries are all in danger, either expanding their forces, or seeking alliances, and the chaotic war in the Central Plains has kicked off from this moment.

However, what does this have to do with the little guys in Tianyan Tower, Chu Li now only thinks about finding the people in Mingxi Town as soon as possible, and then going to Zhuhai Chinese Academy to live a normal and ordinary life.

"Little Er, serve the wine. "Chu Li has been in Tianyanlou for more than half a year, and he is probably extremely sensitive to the word "Xiao Er", as long as it is within the scope of this Tianyanlou, just call Xiao Er, and Chu Li will be on call.

"Guest, your wine. Chu Li has perfected his ability to smile, maybe he is not so handsome, but when they meet, he can always give people a sense of intimacy and inexplicable goodwill, so there are no guests who have embarrassed him in the past nine months.

"Guest officer, are you going to join the army?" Glancing cautiously at the long strips of items on the table, Chu Li asked out loud.

"Yes, which man of my generation does not yearn for killing the enemy on the battlefield and making meritorious contributions. Dahan glanced at Xiao Wu and felt that he looked quite pleasing to the eye, so he continued, "Now that the king has declared war on the four countries, the war is tight, and it will almost be conscripted in two days. ”

Go to the battlefield? Chu Li pursed his lips, he didn't want to go to the battlefield, Zhuhai Guoxue was still waiting for him, thinking so in his heart, but he said Thank you, please use it slowly.

Seeing that this little guy didn't have the same thoughts as himself, the big man didn't think it was strange, smiled and didn't speak, and looked at the wine on the table. This goes to life and death, when drinking.

When Chu Li was free, it was already the third watch of the month, and the noisy wine shop during the day was quiet at this time. Chu Li lay on the bed tiredly, staring at the cobwebs on the beams of the room in a daze.

This firewood room was given to him by Liu Rui'er, and although the salary of Tianyanlou was a lot, it did not provide accommodation for the small workers, so Chu Li accepted the love of the eldest lady.

Chu Li didn't know where he should go, and he couldn't be a little guy in Tianyan Tower for a lifetime. But after thinking about it for a long time, Chu Li didn't come up with a reason, so he simply closed his eyes and went to sleep.

On the second day, Chu Li was woken up by the sound of slamming the door, and before he could get up to open the door, the dilapidated wooden door was kicked open, and the wooden bolts were scattered all over the ground, and the sunlight shining in was dusty, and Chu Li squinted at the comer.

In fact, you don't need to look at Chu Li to know who it is, who can be so arrogant on the territory of Tianyan Tower, except for the eldest lady.

"Little beggar, you're too lazy, get up and work, believe it or not, Miss Ben will deduct your salary. ”

In fact, it was also a pleasure to hear such a crisp and tactful voice early in the morning, Chu Li stretched his waist, planning to squint for a while. His work started in the afternoon, and it was still early. Besides, he has long been accustomed to the harassment of the eldest lady these days.

Liu Rui'er gritted her silver teeth to death, looking at the person on the bed, she couldn't wait to rush up and bite him, but she came with a mission today.

"Little beggar, tell you, your good days are coming. Liu Rui'er cleared her throat and said a little proudly, but Chu Li still ignored her, how could it be interesting to listen to a little girl's nonsense. Liu Ruier stomped her feet angrily when she saw this, but she didn't dare to turn her face and leave, she came with a task, if she didn't finish it because of nonsense, she would have to be scolded when she went back.

"Little beggar, my father wants to see you. "Miss Tianyanlou, at this time, she is in her prime, her demeanor is dignified, her arrogant head is slightly raised, and everyone's beautiful temperament can be seen at a glance.

Chu Li opened one eye, "Really?" "Can that still be fake?" The eldest lady snorted coldly, her expression slightly stunned. Chu Li sighed and nodded, "Then let's go, I also happen to have something to ask to see the big shopkeeper." ”

"Aha, little beggar, wasn't you very angry just now, didn't you ignore me?" The proud and dignified eldest lady disappeared after not maintaining a minute. Chu Li was really helpless, it was rumored that the frosty and cold Tianyanlou eldest lady sighed, she was under the eaves, and she had to bow her head.

The two quarreled for a long time, until Chu Li packed up and went out, the sun was already warm on his body. Along the way, Liu Rui'er was still chattering to Chu Li, "If you see my father, you can't be like now, you must pay attention to etiquette, although my father is more shrewd, but he is still very kind." ”

Talking and walking all the way, the two of them arrived in front of a three-story house about three stories high, "My father is waiting for you in the living room, and I will take you up." After that, Liu Rui'er's face turned pale, and she turned back to the dignified eldest lady, "Come with me." "Moving the lotus step lightly, the figure lined by the long vermilion skirt is graceful, and the complexion is better than snow.

Chu Li was stunned as he watched from the sidelines, he knew that Liu Rui'er changed her face quickly, who would have thought that she would look like this when she saw her father, if it weren't for the fact that they had known each other for a long time, Chu Li would really believe that this person with a lot of manners was the eldest lady of Tianyanlou.

Liu Rui'er walked in front, her chin raised slightly, her eyes were cold and arrogant, her steps were light, she seemed to be a model of everyone's beauty, and Chu Li, who was dressed in a small dress, followed behind, with a strange face.

"It's just ahead, go yourself. The eldest lady's voice was crisp and elegant, and after turning around gorgeously, the little girl in Tsing Yi clearly saw that cold face and was frowning, "Go quickly, remember to tell me what my father told you when you come out, dare not say that I will kill you 1" Liu Ruier thought, and then watched

Now on his face, and the terrible thing is that Chu Li actually understood, "Tell you what the hell, come and bite me!" Chu Li thought so in his heart, but there was a standard smile on his face, "Okay, don't worry." Seeing Liu Rui'er leave with a satisfied face, Chu Li snorted and knocked on the door in front of him.

"Come in. A warm man's voice sounded, and Chu Li pushed the door open. The room was not very big, not much different from Chu Li's firewood room, and it was as empty as his firewood room. There is a table and two chairs in the center, a tea set is placed on the table, and a pair of words are hung on the wall.

The hundred and two proprietors sat at the table and looked at him, holding a fragrant tea in their hands.
