Chapter 229 Watching
"Because the ghost witch barbarians have been attacking at night for a while, so General Ji took us to patrol the southern camp the night before, but I didn't expect those barbarians to really attack at night again during the second watch, General Ji personally led his brothers to repel them, but when cleaning the battlefield, a black-faced barbarian lying on the ground and pretending to be dead suddenly burst out with a knife to attack, that person was so evil that he killed four or five brothers in a row, General Ji personally stepped forward to think that he was also seriously injured by him, this is all to blame the incompetence of the little ones, please punish the commander!"
Looking at the low head below who seemed to be full of grief and shame, his armor was tattered and still bloodstained, his left hand was bandaged and hung down on his chest, obviously this was still a not light injury, how could Yun Feiyu harshly blame him for not doing his duty, he shook his head slightly, Yun Feiyu said: "You can sacrifice your life and try your best to save Ji Haichen, it can be regarded as meritorious, but what is special about the person who assassinated? Could it really be an elite warrior under the Ghost Witch Clan?"
Ji Haichen, the personal guard, carefully recalled the unexpected situation yesterday night, shook his head slightly, and said: "If you go back to your lordship, that person doesn't seem to be from the Ghost Witch Clan, although it was dark at the time, I couldn't see his appearance clearly, but listening to his mouth, he could speak fluent Central Plains dialect, and the long knife in his hand was relatively rare, narrow, and narrow, like a knife commonly used by Fusang bandits!"
"Oh!" I didn't expect this, could it be that the Ghost Witch Clan and the remnants of the pirates were in collusion? Yun Feiyu couldn't help but sit on the handsome seat and ponder for a while, as far as he knew, the Ghost Witch Clan has always been more xenophobic, advocating violent killing, and barbarism is extremely difficult to communicate peacefully with words, otherwise Baiyi and the other Eight Clans would not have been fighting with them for a hundred years, and now that the Zhou Kingdom sent troops to help the Eight Clans, although they did not take the initiative to attack, they also suppressed the Ghost Witch Clan on the front line of Nanshan, could it be that the Ghost Witch Clan also had to break the custom and find external help to help them?
If this is the case, then the situation in Nanshan will be different, Yun Feiyu weighed it repeatedly in his heart, it seems that he will also go to the Nanshan camp to investigate the situation! Thinking of this, Yun Feiyu opened his mouth and said to the soldier below: "You go down to recuperate from your injuries first!"
Seeing that the wounded guard was ordered to salute and leave the barracks, the poisonous demon rice dumpling sitting next to him suddenly spoke: "The poison in Ji Haichen's body is not the secret snake venom commonly used by the Ghost and Witch Clan, but it really looks like the poison of plants and trees mixed by the Fusang people!"
With the way of poison, the poisonous demon rice dumpling can be said to be a rare master in today's world, Yun Feiyu naturally believes in the judgment of the rice dumpling, coupled with what the soldier said just now, Yun Feiyu frowned, his face was a little serious, he raised his eyes to look at Su Yongquan who was standing on the side, and said: "Today I will go to the Nanshan camp in person, and you Su Yongquan are still fully responsible for the Liucheng here, if there is anything urgent, you can send someone to the Nanshan camp to see me!"
Su Yongquan bent over and saluted: "Humble to receive orders, but the adults go to the battle formation in person, please be careful in everything!"
Yun Feiyu nodded, turned his face to look at Tianshui Lanxin, but before he could speak, Tianshui Lanxin preemptively said: "I'll go with you!"
Looking at the Heavenly Maiden's shining and moving eyes full of hope and concern, suddenly Yun Feiyu couldn't open his mouth to say anything dissent, so he could only nod his head and then turn his face to look at Mi Zhen and Duan Fangrui, and said, "Then trouble Mi Lao to tell everyone in the mansion about the matter here!"
Duan Fang Rui originally wanted to follow eagerly, but just now, Mi Zong, suddenly turned his head and glanced back, with a warning in his eyes, and with a low cold snort in his mouth, although he didn't say anything, but the little girl who was full of elves also remembered that she had promised that her master would never risk going to the battle formation with her righteous brother Yun Feiyu again, so she had no choice but to pout, bow her head, and be silent.
Suppressing the restless little apprentice, Mi Zong nodded with a chuckle on his face and replied to Yun Feiyu, and said, "Don't worry!"
Yun Feiyu actually has nothing to worry about, since everything is arranged, Yun Feiyu got up from the handsome position, and wanted to take people to the Nanshan camp with Tianshui Lanxin, but at this time, Fang Rui suddenly spoke: "Brother Feiyu, when I came, Sister Xue'er asked me to bring something to you!"
Yun Feiyu was slightly stunned and didn't know what Lan Xue'er had to do for Duan Fangrui to endorse, even Mi Zong's face looked at his beloved disciple with a surprised face, Duan Fangrui was still angry in his heart, and glanced at Su Yongquan next to him with a pout.
Su Yongquan thought that Her Royal Highness the princess had a private message to explain to the commander, and he wanted to bow down and bow and retire first because of the inconvenience of an outsider here, "Do you want to retire first for the time being?"
Yun Feiyu didn't say anything, and Duan Fangrui said urgently: "You don't have to go, Sister Xue'er's words are still related to you!"
Although Su Yongquan was suspicious in his heart, because of his calm personality created by his childhood experience, he was invisible, so he hugged his fists and said: "Then humble duty, listen to the orders of Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Duan Fangrui nodded slightly, and then said: "Sister Xue'er said, that Lai Pisu from Beijing ,......" Before she could finish speaking, seeing Su Yongquan raised his head fiercely and showed surprise, Duan Fangrui suddenly thought that Su Yongquan was Lai Pi Su Su Dingchen's cousin, and it was not good to scold Su Dingchen behind his back in front of him, the little girl couldn't help but stick out her tongue and her little face was slightly red and said embarrassedly: " Eh, no, it's Su Dingchen, the eldest young master of the Su family, he is your cousin, Sister Xue'er understands that your brothers meet in this foreign place, and specially asks Brother Feiyu to allow you to take a few days off, so that you can get together more and take the eldest young master Su to get familiar with this Liucheng by the way!"
Yun Feiyu knew that Lan Xue'er had this intention, although he had also heard that Su Yongquan was ostracized and suppressed in the Su family, and the relationship with his own half-brother was extremely cold, but seeing that Su Dingchen was a little prodigal, he was open-minded and approachable, and the relationship between the city government and Su Yongquan should be fine, so it would not hurt for the two of them to be closer, thinking of this, Yun Feiyu couldn't help but sit down again, and said with a smile: " Am I careless or princess, she is thoughtful, in this case, Zhao Shi will be in charge of the affairs in this camp first, Li Lin They will be in charge for a few days, and you will be allowed to Yongquan, you will have a ten-day break to let your brothers get together!"
Speaking from the heart, Su Yongquan really didn't treat his cousin Su Dingchen very much, the entire Su family except for his own mother Su Yongquan didn't have a good impression of anyone, but he couldn't refuse clearly, Su Yongquan bowed and said: "My lord, I don't know how serious the situation is when the Nanshan camp changes like this, how can I be idle because of my humble position at this moment?"
Yun Feiyu shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "It's okay, the Nanshan camp has me and General Lan Xin going here to train as usual, I've been lazy these days and pushed all the military affairs to you, it's a lot of hard work for you, take advantage of this opportunity You can also have a good rest and rest, so it's decided, come here! Go and pass on Zhao Shi, Li Lin and they will come to see me!"
The sergeant who listened to the order in front of the door was ordered to immediately pass on the two battalion lieutenants, and Su Yongquan couldn't say anything more after the matter had come to this point, and the matter turned out to be such a 'happy' decision, Yun Feiyu took Tianshui Lanxin and the others to the Nanshan camp, Su Yongquan was fortunate to have a ten-day vacation, and returned to Liucheng with the rice dumplings and Fang Rui!
Originally, Su Yongquan's plan was that even if he had to be ordered to take a ten-day vacation, he could have stayed in the barracks and not go out, but Su Yongquan didn't expect Lan Xue'er's thoughtfulness to be outrageous, it turned out that Lan Xue'er had already asked Duan Fangrui to ask the little girl to tell Yun Feiyu to invite Su Yongquan to stay in the Liucheng County Mansion for a short time!
Although Yun Feiyu and Tianshui Lanxin are going to the Nanshan camp, it is still according to Lan Xue'er's intention to let Su Yongquan live in the county guard's mansion, after all, the tiger camp army still belongs to the battalion army, although the time spent in Liucheng is not short, but from the battalion captain to the ordinary soldiers, they all take the military camp as their home, and very few settle down in Liucheng, Su Yongquan is no exception, so why not invite Yun Feiyu, a confidant who loves to the big one, to the big one, and want to demolish the county guard's mansion for a few days? Not to mention that it is also convenient for their Su brothers to get together, isn't it?
Regardless of whether Su Yongquan was happy or unhappy in his heart, he couldn't refrain from the kindness of Her Royal Highness the princess and the hospitality of the deputy commander, so he lived in the county guard mansion with the rice dumplings and Fang Rui!
The triple courtyard of the county guard house plus a large back garden, the first courtyard is the main hall guest room study and the like, the second courtyard is the place where the servants live and the kitchen, the water room, the granary, etc., the third is the inner house, is the place where Lan Xue'er Huer Xuelian and the rice dumplings and his wife live, Su Yongquan enters the door of the house is a guest, and lives in the guest room, and there are people who send each other on time for meals on weekdays, in order to avoid suspicion, Su Yongquan rarely goes to the backyard, in the two days of the county guard's mansion, except for the first time when the princess has seen her, the rest of the time is only a little girl who delivers food, and occasionally the housekeeper Lin Quan, who has inconvenient legs and feet!
In the past two days, Su Yongquan has also closed his door and not out, staying in his house for a whole day, except for eating and going to the toilet, he is quiet like a lady, and he has no intention of going out of the house to find his cousin Su Dingchen to "gather and gather", so that Lan Xue'er, who has been rewarded by others, can't help but laugh, thinking that it seems that this Su Yongquan is really a mustard for the Su family!
But Su Yongquan is not afraid to go out, Su Dingchen is not the master of peace, on the third day when Su Yongquan lived in the county guard's mansion, early in the morning, Su Dingchen came to visit with two large boxes of gifts, nominally to thank Zhao Qingyu for the "great kindness" who prepared the table of meals two days ago!
Su Dingchen and Su Dashao came to the door, and Lan Xue'er met in person, not only that, but also asked people to specially invite Su Yongquan to the main hall to welcome the guests, and when Su Yongquan entered the door, he looked up and saw his cousin sitting on the guest seat sipping tea, Su Yongquan felt a little uncomfortable, but this time he couldn't be regarded as not seeing it at all, so he bowed to Her Royal Highness the princess and turned his face to Su Dingchen and bowed his hand slightly: "Yongquan has seen my cousin!"
Su Dingchen was also a little embarrassed, as if he was afraid that his cousin Su Yongquan would know about his purpose, and he was also surprised that his cousin could appear in this mansion early in the morning in civilian clothes, so he hurriedly got up and asked, "Yongquan, why are you here? Could it be that there is any accident in the army?"
Lan Xue'er sat on the main seat and looked at this pair of cousins with great interest, these two people have five or six points of similarity, they are both long-eyebrowed, rare delicate and handsome, but Su Dingchen has a slight ruffian appearance, the corners of his mouth are slightly curved, and there is a random and free air flowing out of his face like a smile, compared to Su Yongquan, who is extremely calm and even a little gloomy, but it seems to be because of the tempering of the battle formation in the past two years, Lan Xue'er originally remembered that Su Yongquan's face was a little too delicate and feminine, but now looking at it again, the feminine air has completely dissipated, leaving only the cold and even a trace of fierceness, and the delicate face with such a temperament is also a rare excellence among men!
These two people are close to each other but have very different temperaments, and their obvious personalities are also very different, the corners of Lan Xue'er's mouth are upturned, as if she finds it quite interesting, and she interjects to explain: " Everything is normal in the army, but he and I both think that it is not easy for your brothers to meet in different places, if you can't get together for a few days, it seems that our husband and wife are too unkind, so we have granted Su Yingwei a ten-day break, today your Young Master Su came just right, your brothers can take the opportunity to get together together, look at the weather outside, stay in the mansion, Su Yingwei is also bored, why don't you go together to go around the city and relax?"
Su Dingchen grinned secretly, he could see the indifference hidden in his cousin Su Yongquan's face, although the two were cousins, there was no intimacy between ordinary people, Su Dingchen simply doubted that if the two of them stayed together, even if they were afraid to communicate for a day, they would not exceed ten words.
Su Yongquan didn't have anything on his face, and he didn't want to get together with his cousin in his heart, the meanness and ruthlessness of the people in Jiang Zhe's Su family Su Yongquan had experienced a lot since he was a child, although this lobby brother didn't bully himself like other brothers, but he also watched indifferently when he was insulted and beaten by other brothers many times, and he was never able to stand up!
The two brothers have their own reluctances in their hearts, but sitting above is Her Royal Highness the Princess, and her kindness is not so simple to refuse, not to mention that this kind of indifference between the two brothers is really not enough for outsiders!
Lan Xue'er is the human essence of the human spirit, the Su brothers all hesitated to answer, Lan Xue'er naturally knew that it was because the relationship between the two of them was not very harmonious, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she thought about it a little in her heart, Lan Xue'er didn't want the scene to be too embarrassing After all, Su Yongquan was a talent that Yun Feiyu valued, and with a turn of her face, Lan Xue'er said to He'er standing beside her: "He'er, you go and find Sister Qingyu, just say that Young Master Su brought Xie Lilai to thank her for the food that day!"
Lan Xue'er was slightly teasing in her words, and He'er smiled quietly, covered her mouth and went out, Su Dingchen was even more embarrassed over there, although he always thought that he was not thin-skinned, but somehow in front of his cousin Su Yongquan, his face was a little weak, and his face became hot!
Su Yongquan was still standing there silently, his face was as usual, while Lan Xue'er stretched out his hand and said, "Captain Su, you can sit too!"
Su Yongquan sat down, the guest seats in this hall were divided into two columns on the left and right, Su Dingchen was already sitting at the head of the column on the left, it was said that Su Yongquan, as his cousin, should sit in the position of the head of the same column as him, but Su Yongquan walked directly to the other side and sat down with Su Dingchen head-on, as if to silently show that he and Su Dingchen had to be divided more clearly except for the same surname!
In this regard, Su Dingchen could only snort slightly, according to the official etiquette, his transfer envoy was no bigger than Su Yongquan's deputy commander battalion lieutenant!
Not long after, just as Zhao Qingyu was walking in the corridor with He'er and was about to enter the hall door, of course, there was still a little tail Duan Fang Rui behind him, and before he entered the door, Duan Fang Rui's undisguised voice had already come: "That Lai Pisu is really annoying! Sister Qingyu, don't worry! I won't let him pester you for long!"
Although Zhao Qingyu whispered, Su Dingchen in the room felt that his face was hot and he didn't dare to look up at his cousin Su Yongquan opposite, and Su Yongquan moved in his heart, secretly wondering if his merry cousin was chasing Zhao Qingyu and Zhao girl?
When the three of them entered the door, Duan Fangrui found that Su Yongquan was also present, which made the little girl involuntarily bow her head, the arrogance of the chest just now was completely gone, and the little face also felt a rare fever!
Lan Xue'er ignored Duan Fangrui's nonsense, looked at Zhao Qingyu and said with a smile: "Sister, Young Master Su brought a generous gift this time, originally I wanted Lieutenant Su to come forward and bring Young Master Su to familiarize himself with the size of Lower City, but it seems that my sister and I have mistaken thoughts, I forgot that Lieutenant Su has been in the military camp and is afraid that he is not very familiar with Downstream City, why don't you take their brothers to go shopping?"
