Chapter 38

Hua Rong's boots are very old. She is in the military camp. She knows that the imperial court is nervous about military expenditure and is unwilling to increase the burden of the ninth Lord. She never arbitrarily uses a sum of money for private use. She has never changed her boots. There are no military products of her size in the military, so she has never changed them I didn't want to. Yue Peng only looked back and noticed

She looked at the boots and liked them very much. She looked at the jade hairpin and liked it even more. She laughed again, "Peng Ju, I don't need it in the barracks."

He whispered, "I see it looks good. My sister doesn't have another hairpin, so buy it for my sister. Doesn't my sister like it?"

"Yes, very much." She took it, put it in her arms and said softly, "there will be no war in the future. My sister will show it to you."

Yue Peng whistled with joy

After the two brothers and sisters had dinner, Yue Peng saw a lot of paper and ink on her desk. He picked up a piece of words and asked him, "have you read and written in the military camp these years?"

"Read it."

"Write it to your sister."

He nodded, sat down, and the flowers melted to grind ink for him. When he raised his pen, he wrote:

Years of dust filled the clothes,

Look for the fragrance and the jade

Good water and good mountains are not enough,

The horse's hoof urges him to return while the moon shines

Hua Rong looked at it with heroic poetry, vigorous writing, full of a kind of masculinity, and he liked it very much. He repeatedly said, "Peng Ju, you are really good, and you have written better than your sister."

He felt his head and felt very embarrassed. Suddenly, he felt a piece of paper from his arms. It was wrapped well, folded, and the flowers dissolved. There were only three words "Yue Pengju" on the yellowed paper

He wrote his name to him on the island in the same year He has been collecting such a piece of paper for many years

"Sister, I have always carried the art of war of Sun Tzu you sent me. It has inspired me a lot in several battles."

She laughed. I didn't expect that the idle books he had casually given him had been skillfully used by him and played such a great role

She picked up her pen and thought, "sister, write a few more words for you."

Yue Pengju was very happy and stood beside her, quietly watching her write

There was a knock on the door, but neither brother nor sister heard it. The door was half open. The ninth Lord gently pushed the door in, but when he saw that the two brothers and sister were concentrating on writing on their desks, their state was very intimate, and Xu Caizhi, who was with him, couldn't help coughing gently

Seeing that the ninth Lord came, Hua Rong immediately put down his pen, and the two brothers and sisters saluted together: "I've seen the ninth Lord."

The ninth Lord smiled and said, "Peng Ju, didn't you go out with them?"

"I haven't seen my sister for a long time. Now I'm a little free to compare calligraphy with my sister."

The ninth Lord laughed, "good boy, let me see. Your calligraphy is about to catch up with your sister?"

Yue Peng respectfully handed it over. He looked at it carefully, and looked up at him in some surprise. He was more surprised than his military ability. The little boy of that year really became a promising young man with all-round talents

He was delighted and immediately said, "Xu Caizhi, take the king's complete set of pens, ink, paper and inkstones and give them to Yue Pengju."

"Yes. The villain will be delivered later."

Yue Pengju quickly thanked him

At this time, the ninth Lord sat down, looked at this simple room, and sighed: "your sister and brother followed the king. Peng Ju made many military achievements and Hua Rong was loyal to the guard, but the king has never rewarded you. When the war stopped, the king will make good arrangements for you..."

"The LORD saved her life and trusted her to have a place to live. I'm always grateful. How dare you ask the Lord for a reward?"

"Hua Rong, don't be too polite. The king of Japan held a banquet in the Ming Dynasty. First, let's get together and second, practice for Peng Ju."

"Thank you, Lord."

Seeing that it was getting late, the ninth Lord said goodbye, and Yue Pengju went with him

These days, Huarong has never been so lively. After washing, she goes to bed, but she tosses and turns and can't sleep Finally, I closed my eyes, but I dreamed that King Qin lifted himself like an eagle catching a chicken, took a thick rope, and wanted to strip himself naked and tie him to a big tree She struggled and kicked desperately. When she woke up, she found it was a nightmare, and her body was already dripping with cold sweat

She turned over and sat up, got out of bed, and went to the window to see the moonlight on the ground. It was cold and thin, as if it indicated that this was an ominous season

Since seeing Li Xing, that kind of hidden worry has been lingering in her heart. Now King Qin really came to the door, and the fear made her angry. She thought that there was no escape, and it was time to end with King Qin

"Qin Shangcheng, if you don't kill me today, I will kill you for revenge in the future."

She remembered the oath she had made, and her heart crossed. If she saw King Qin again, either he died or she died. What was she afraid of him doing?

Besides, King Qin, he followed Yue Pengju and others quietly into the city

Naturally, he would not break into the camp, but stayed in the inn booked by Li Xing and others He was born in a military family and knew well the bad habits of soldiers. This time, when he returned from victory, the generals must be brothels every day and have fun Therefore, Li Xing and others were secretly sent into several groups to go in and out of brothels and brothels to find the whereabouts of Yue Pengju, ready to start with him

However, on the first night, although many officers went to the brothel together, there was no Yue Pengju among them He didn't give up. He kept waiting for the hare, and Yue Pengju would come up Civil and military officials in this dynasty are all elegant and easy to visit brothels. It's unreasonable for Yue Peng not to come alone He was not anxious at all. As long as he caught Yue Pengju, Hua Rong naturally fell

Two little girls waited on him to drink flower wine. A prostitute came in slowly, received a large ingot of gold, smiled and poured a glass of wine to his lips: "uncle, you drink..."

Thinking that he was about to see Hua Rong, he just felt blood boiling all over. He was not interested in this enchanting girl at all. He laughed and said, "go out, you're too ugly..."

Although the prostitute was not the leader of the brothel, she was also quite beautiful. She had never heard of anyone saying she was ugly and thought he was drunk: "uncle, you are drunk..."

"Haha, I'm very sober. Go, go, go, my wife is 10000 times more beautiful than you."

The prostitute twisted her body: "your wife is so beautiful, are you still in the brothel?"

A woman hates others' saying that she looks inferior to others. She is very angry. She turns around and goes out, scolding secretly as she walks. This man is really cheap. When she goes to a brothel to say that her wife is beautiful, she is really the first bitch in the world

King Qin didn't care about her, drank the wine in his glass, and said to himself, "girl, I really want to die. If I catch you, I won't let you run away anymore..."

There was a knock at the door. He shouted "come in". Li Xing and others hurried in with a happy face: "Your Majesty, there is the latest news. My wife is really far away and near..."

He was overjoyed and immediately stood up: "where?"

"The villain bribed a bodyguard in Xiangzhou camp. He said that a few days ago, a woman went to the ninth Lord. This woman is Yue Pengju's sister, and her name is Hua Rong. It is said that she has excellent arrow skills, and now she is one of the bodyguards of the ninth Lord..."

"Shit, how can the girl be skillful in archery?" This question has not been solved, and what made him more furious was: "how can the girl become the bodyguard of the bird Lord? Does he deserve it?"

"Your Majesty, if your wife becomes the bodyguard of the ninth Lord, it's hard to do..."

"What's hard to do? That bird man needs the protection of women? What? When I chop him into meat and mud, anyway, the Jin Jun has gone all the way south, and his Zhao family can't keep the world. Li Xing, you get ready immediately, not to mention Xiangzhou camp. Even if it's the inner court of the Imperial Palace, I will kill him and take my wife."

"Yes."

King Qin didn't want to drink the flower wine, so he immediately returned to the inn with Li Xing and others and made careful arrangements overnight

"Li Xing, can you ask that bodyguard out?"

"Yes."

"OK. Arrange it. If he can try to get Hua Rong to leave the camp, we can take her away. It's really bad. If he tries to attack again, I won't believe that Song Jun, who has been defeated repeatedly, can become a tiger's den. Everyone must be careful not to startle the snake."

"Yes."

The next day, Yue Pengju went to the street early again. Since Li Xing and others had appeared in Xiangzhou, King Qin had no reason not to be there But these pirates lurk in and out day and night, enjoy themselves at night, and hide in the daytime. It is not easy to find them

By noon, there was still no clue He was thirsty and was about to buy a cup of tea. He saw Xu Caizhi coming from the opposite side with a smile on his face: "Peng Ju, coincidentally, it's almost noon. Let's have lunch together."

Yue Pengju did not refuse, and the two came to a restaurant

Xu Caizhi asked for an elegant room to sit down. The waiter brought up the dishes, set a table and warmed a pot of wine. Xu Caizhi waved his hand, and the waiter closed the door and went out wisely

After three rounds of drinking, Xu Caizhi said, "Peng Ju, I have something to discuss with you."

"Mr. Xu, please go ahead."

"Your sister is both talented and beautiful, and the ninth Lord intends to be a concubine. She has been dependent on her all her life, and she has no worries all her life, so she can live a life of wealth and glory..."

Yue Pengju's heart instantly turned upside down, and the wine seemed to be bitter. What was the idea of the ninth Lord? Why should my sister be a concubine? No wonder my sister is always worried these two days

He put down his glass and didn't change his face: "thank you for the kindness of Lord nine and Lord Xu. But my sister is not an ordinary woman. She is stubborn and has her own ideas about this."

"Yes, Miss Hua is really different. All along, beautiful women love heroes, and the prince is her lifesaver. It's not too much for her to promise each other. But she's afraid that she has a knot in her heart, and that she once fell into the hands of pirates and is not worthy of the prince. You can tell her that the prince doesn't dislike her life experience at all. Although she is a side princess, the Royal concubine and the other two maidens are gentle people and very tolerant. The prince likes her very much and will spoil her more. If she gives birth to a boy in the future, her mother and son will be expensive, Wealth is naturally limitless... "

Yue Peng's lift became more and more unpleasant, but he felt a fire in his heart, as if he was about to jump out of his chest. Xu Caizhi kept asking his sister to marry the ninth Lord as a concubine. Would my sister really want to?

He couldn't sit down any longer, made an excuse, said goodbye in a hurry, and then hurried back
