He Jiangchu saw that his lieutenant general was already a cooked duck—only his mouth was stiff, and on a whim, he leaned over and pulled out the bamboo slip from his hand, and said, "Oh, Qingzhuo, why do I think you are so stupid? Cousin is your heart disease."

Yan Qingzhuo didn't shy away from it, and said, "My aunt ran away with a man when she was young, and came back several years later. The man disappeared, so she brought back such a bastard. Now that I don't help to take care of her, what will you do when you let me go home?"

He Jiangchu heard this for the first time, and he couldn't help asking curiously, "What about the man?"

Yan Qingzhuo frowned, "My family only occasionally said a few words to that man, and they all avoided it. After all, it's not something glorious. Up to now, we juniors don't know who the man is, and we don't know whether he is dead or... "

The aunt who abandoned Yan Qingzhuo had a new love.

He Jiang understood clearly, and said with a smile, "Men, it's human nature to be romantic, and those who love only one person all their lives are aliens, traitors among men."

Yan Qingzhuo: "..."

Yan Qingzhuo snatched back the bamboo slips from He Jiangchu's hand, and sneered coldly, "You must be your General He's temperament. The princess doesn't even want to marry, because she is afraid of blocking her wives and concubines from flocking." way."

He Jiangchu was at a loss for words for a long while, and then he remembered that Yan Qingzhuo had a childhood sweetheart in the capital who was in love with each other. He had already engaged in a marriage contract. Hearing that the relationship was very good, he couldn't help but leaned over and joked, "Tsk, I have to give up a tree." Weilin, Qingzhuo, do you really intend to marry someone in this lifetime?"

Yan Qingzhuo: "Oh, Mr. Yan's fortune is poor, and it's God's mercy to keep one person. It's not comparable to someone."

He Jiangchu was quite pleased with this sentence, as if he didn't understand the sarcasm in the words, he smiled modestly, "So-and-so, He is just a little bit more handsome than ordinary sons, and he took a bit of advantage .Ashamed ashamed."

Yan Qingzhuo rolled his eyes at him.

When going on the road the next day, Yan Qingzhuo and He Jiangchu were at the front of the line as usual.But for some reason, I was always thinking about Yu Xiaoding in my heart, and finally decided to find an excuse to go to the team to see how the dead boy's injury was doing.But after a while, he returned to the front of the line.

He Jiang Chu sat on Yunzhui's back leisurely, and asked, "So fast? Didn't you express your concern as a cousin with a few words of condolences?"

Yan Qingzhuo ignored him.In fact, he regretted coming back halfway through the walk, thinking that he would be annoyed when he saw that cousin who didn’t know what to say, and even more annoyed when he thought of how he didn’t tell why he cut someone that day.After such annoyance, almost immediately felt that Yu Xiaoding deserved it, turned around and came back again.

Seeing Yan Qingzhuo's expression of not wanting to talk to him, He Jiangchu also guessed half of it in his heart.He yawned, squinted his eyes to look at the sun, and thought to himself, caring about people without letting others know, isn't this caring for nothing?What brains?

Such a boring journey took about twenty days, running along the official road.I was busy reading ancient books and discussing simulated wars with a group of deputy generals all day long. I was busy, but I felt that the busyness was too routine and regular, and the routine was the same every day. It seemed a bit too busy to be bored.

In this kind of boredom, I finally arrived at the next food and grass supply point, which was a quite large and prosperous city named Tongcheng.The city is backed by Tongshan Mountain, and there is a big river passing by, so the water flow is convenient, and there is a large alluvial plain with sufficient food.However, there is another reason for its prosperity, as its name shows-copper.

The copper mountain on the back is rich in copper mines, and nearly one-fifth of Liangqiu's bronze smelting comes from this place, from ritual vessels to weapons.Moreover, with a long history of smelting and mature craftsmanship, it is difficult to think that this place will not be prosperous.

He Jiangchu's army found a place outside Tongcheng to station.The grain and grass officer took the order and went to collect supplies from the lord of Tongcheng.Bai Wuyi also took Yu Xiaocustom coolie who had basically recovered and went to the city to buy medicinal herbs.

Because there is still a period of time to stay here, without the kid Bai Wuyi for teasing, He Jiangchu, who was idle and flustered, started acting like a demon, throwing all the trivial matters in the army to Yan Qingzhuo, and entered Tongcheng by himself stroll.

I asked around in the city, planning to find a tavern with a good reputation, so that I could have a good drink first.As a result, someone came to the door by himself, "Guest officer wants to drink? Come to my house." He Jiangchu glanced at the person who came, and touched a woman who was about 25 or [-] years old. , It is very popular with men.

He Jiangchu looked at it calmly, and said with a smile, "If the girl didn't sell the wine herself, I wouldn't drink it."

The woman also smiled and said, "The guest officer is here."

I don't know if this woman just happened to be here for something, so she took a guest by the way or something, but she took He Jiangchu for a long way before arriving at her tavern.

When they arrived at the tavern, the woman actually didn't let the waiter reach out, and brought some jars of wine and wine bowls to He Jiangchu herself, and also brought some side dishes to go with the wine.Although she is a girl, she is quick-witted and hospitable, and her conversation is good, without the shyness that women usually see.

He Jiangchu heard that the regular customers in the store called that Gu Jiuniang "Fenniang", so he followed suit.I was originally a flirtatious temperament, coupled with a flattering face, I got acquainted with Fen Niang in a while.

While drinking, He Jiangchu asked casually, "Is there any good place to go in this copper city?"

Fenniang said, "The guest officer doesn't know? You have to ask outsiders about the scenery in this place. The locals live here and grow up here. Even the best scenery is too good to taste."

He Jiangchu couldn't help laughing and said, "That's exactly the reason."

After drinking a few more sips of wine, Niang Fen suddenly opened up and said, "But if the guest officer is in a hurry, you might as well go to Tongshan to have a look, maybe there will be some adventures."

He Jiangchu: "An adventure?"

Fen Niang: "You don't know, this copper city has another name in ancient times, it's called Yuanyang Tomb, it is said that an emperor loved a woman he shouldn't love, and he was punished by the gods, and the person he loved paid the price with his life. Then The emperor didn't want to, so he and his beloved concubine lived here incognito, spent their whole life, and finally buried on the copper mountain."

Before He Jiangchu could answer the words, Fen Niang laughed and said, "Where are there so many infatuated kings in this world? Why didn't I see a king come to take pity on me?"

Everyone in the tavern laughed.There is teasing and comfort, and some people take advantage of this loophole.Niang Fen was not annoyed, and laughed with a group of people.

Suddenly, someone said, "Don't tell me, there are people who really believe this story. I heard that last month, some miners encountered tomb robbers in the Copper Mountain."

After speaking, there was a burst of ridicule in the tavern. If there were really an emperor's tomb, the miners would have moved it all away, and the tomb robbers would have to wait.

He Jiangchu also laughed along with him.After laughing, he asked Fen Niang for two more dishes.

Fen Niang also cooked the food herself, fried it and sent it over.But when he was leaving, he accidentally tipped over the wine bowl with his sleeve, and it fell to the ground with a "snap", breaking it.

While apologizing, Fenniang leaned over to pick up the pieces of the wine bowl.He Jiangchu couldn't let a woman come, so he also leaned over to clean up.

I don't know if it's because of the strength of the wine, but I was a little drunk, I couldn't grasp the distance, I was going to pick up the fragments, but I pinched Fenniang's hand.

Niang Fen over there was also taken aback.

He Jiangchu woke up three points from the wine, and couldn't help pinching the calluses on Fenniang's fingers.

Niang Fen quickly pulled her hand back, but she still smiled when she looked up, "Is the guest officer drunk?"

He Jiangchu also smiled, "I'm a bit drunk. Life is not easy. I didn't expect that a beauty like Fenniang would have calluses on her hands like a man like me. It really makes people feel distressed."

Fen Niang heard He Jiang Chu's voice, calmly picked up the fragments, and said, "Guests are caring. I walked through the rivers and lakes before, and this old callus was indeed left by dancing with swords. But now I have calmed down, and here I am." Living in a tavern."
