Wife is General Ghost Face
Chapter 41 You Are Mine Too.
001
"What are you doing? He and I still have a lot of things to talk about!" When Xu Jun came back to his senses, he had already been carried for several steps, and he immediately struggled.
The ghost-faced general quickly used some strength to prevent the person who snatched it from running away.
Sensing the strength of Xu Jun's struggle, his heart was sore. Does Xu Jun want to be with Tao Chi that much?
"open!"
"Don't let it go."
After Xu Jun struggled for a while, he stopped moving, and obediently hung on General Ghost Face, allowing him to take him away.
Unsurprisingly, he was brought back to his residence by the ghost-faced general. After seeing the ghost-faced general put him in the house, he immediately went to the side and locked the door nervously. .
After the ghost-faced general locked the door, he went back to the house and looked at Xu Jun in front of him, but Xu Jun turned his head angrier than him and completely ignored him.
This time, General Ghost Face ignored him first!
Looking at the angry Xu Jun, General Ghost Face was not so angry anymore.
What followed was more confusion and bewilderment. He had robbed people and brought them back to the house to hide them. Then, what should we do now?
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a rare silence.
In the end, General Ghost Face couldn't bear it first, he said: "I will arrange for someone to help with the retreat."
Retreating from the warehouse is not an easy task. They are not only walking, they also have to take the things in the warehouse with them.
Their camp is the head of the entire border garrison nearby, and because General Ghost Face also lives here, many important construction facilities are set up here.
Therefore, the warehouse in this place is much larger than the warehouses in other camps, and it also stores many things that other warehouses do not have.
The warehouse needs to be evacuated. If there are only a few dozen people in Xu Jun's warehouse, I am afraid that even if they are given two months, they may not be able to move all of them. Therefore, someone must help move the things and move them to the city for storage.
"Tao Chi agreed to help me, and I don't need your help." Xu Jun was even more aggrieved than General Ghost Face.
It was the ghost-faced general who wanted to avoid him and let him go away. I'm sorry that he has gone far away now, he has gone far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far away.
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun, "Tao Chi has something to do." There will be a lot to come.
"It's okay, he can call someone to help."
"...He is my lieutenant general, and the person he calls is also mine."
Xu Jun looked back at the man who had become unreasonable, "Then I don't need your help, we can move out by ourselves."
"...The cashier is mine, and everyone in the cashier is also mine."
Xu Jun's black and white eyes widened, but he didn't think of a rebuttal after thinking for a moment.The biggest one in this frontier camp is General Ghost Face, and what he said was right.
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun angry, but his heart softened, "You are the accountant..."
"what?"
"You're mine too."
Xu Jun looked at the ghost face, and he studied it carefully, but unfortunately he couldn't see the expression on the face of the ghost face general at the moment, he could only see the two red ears next to his mask.
After Xu Jun carefully studied the pattern on the mask and the pair of eyes that dared not look at him, Xu Jun pretended to be fierce and went out.
As soon as he left the sight following him behind him, Xu Jun couldn't help showing a sweet smile on his face.
Xu Jun was in a good mood after returning from General Ghost Face. He hummed along the way, and the soldiers passing by couldn't help being infected when they saw Xu Jun like this, and smiled.
Xu Jun went all the way back to the accounting room, and when the person in the accounting room told him that someone was looking for him outside the border camp, he immediately went there.
Seeing a few bandits guarding far outside, Xu Jun immediately sent out a big smile.
"You seemed to have been beaten by Shuang two days ago, what happened today, did you find the money?" Those who came to look for Xu Jun were a few bandits with familiar faces.
"Bring something?" Xu Jun didn't care about this group of people.
"I brought it, that's all, I did as you said." The bandit quickly took the red mushroom that had already been packed from the horse's back, and opened it for Xu Jun to have a look.
When they picked red mushrooms later, it was already a bit late, and after removing the ones that were not dried in the process, there were not many left.
After Xu Jun looked at all the red mushrooms, he asked about the weight, and after knowing the weight, he looked like a few bandits in a good mood, "Then let's settle the score now!"
"Account? What account?" Several bandits looked at each other.
"I taught you how to pick russula, and now I'm selling russula for you, you have to show something, right?" Xu Jun was in a good mood, his eyeballs rolled around, and his face was cunning.
Several bandits choked, "You bastard!"
Xu Jun was not polite, and stretched out his fingers in vain to make a gesture that would definitely hurt the heart of this group of people, "I want this number."
Sure enough, after Xu Jun made this gesture, the bandits beside him were already screaming.
"Are you robbing?"
"Why, even if you taught us how to make it and helped us sell it, we picked it ourselves, and we put a lot of effort into it."
"If you can't, forget it." Xu Jun spread his hands, he was sure that this group of people would definitely ask him, "Besides, wouldn't it cost me to transport this thing to the capital? Don't talk about finding someone to sell it for you when the time comes. Give them a little commission."
Sending something from the border back to the capital can be done easily with his status as the head accountant or the Xu family's status, but if this business can be done, he can't just let people go for nothing every time.
"You guys are simply taking advantage of the fire."
"It's in vain that we treated you so well before."
The bandit got angry and left cursing.
The price Xu Jun offered was not low, but it was within their acceptable range, and it would only cause them heartache for a long time.
In the current situation, they have no other choice, and they can only do this. If they have their own market in the future, then they will never ask Xu Jun again!
Xu Jun was in a good mood, and stood there waving at the group of angry bandits, until they walked Xu Yuan, Xu Jun returned to the camp with the bag of red mushrooms on his shoulders.
After taking the things back to the accounting room, Xu Jun checked and packed them carefully, and immediately wrote a letter to let those who delivered the letter have a chance to help him take the things back to Beijing.
They have frequent exchanges between the border garrison and Beijing, so people often come and go, but it takes a lot of time to go back and forth.
Capital, North Korea.
Since finding out that there are rebels in Jingshan City, Jin Qi has been asking people to investigate this matter, but the situation is not ideal and it is getting worse and worse.
After the rebel army over there was discovered, they developed at a very fast speed, and it didn't take long for them to become small in scale.
What made Jin Qi even more headache was that the incident had slowly spread among the people, causing quite a commotion in the entire Jingshan City.
In addition, this incident has something to do with the always mysterious Ghost-faced General, and his identity has been clearly pointed out with reason, so rumors and rumors spread very quickly among the people.
After Xu Lan came back from Jingshan City, Jin Qi spent a long time discussing this matter with Xu Lan and Lin Xu.
Now it is impossible to shut up those people's mouths. The only solution is to suppress those people before they make a big deal out of it.
After the court confirmed the plan, Jinqi immediately wrote an urgent letter to Xu Ming in Anqing.
Half a month later, in Jingshan City.
Xu Ming, who had found the gathering place of the group of rebels by following the vines, took advantage of the darkness and led the army to surround the residential area quietly overnight.
Under the moonlight, Xu Ming, who had been here for several days in plain clothes, asked the soldiers in plain clothes guarding nearby, and after confirming that no one inside had noticed, he immediately went back to the main street to form a formation.
In the middle of the night, the army had already surrounded the entire residential area.
After confirming that there were no loopholes in the encirclement, Xu Ming ordered everyone to rush in at the same time except for the soldiers who stayed outside, intending to capture all the rebels.
After the other soldiers went in, Xu Ming also drew out his big sword and rushed in, but just after he entered this area, the soldiers on the side had rushed back to report.
"General, there's no one here!"
"Neither here."
"General..."
After the first soldier came back to report, there was a second and a third one next to him. All the vanguard troops who rushed in first discovered the abnormality. This ordinary residential area that should have been stationed by the rebels turned out to be empty. no one!
Xu Ming frowned, "Damn it, I was tricked."
He got off his horse and went into the house to search.
Most of the things in the house were still left, and some of them were left unfinished. It could be seen that those people simply packed some luggage and left in a hurry.
The leftovers on the table had already rotted, and the weather in November would take five or six days to put the food rotten, which was just before they were ready to act.
Standing under the moonlight, Xu Ming frowned, showing a bit of unwillingness on his face.
He has always been very cautious about this matter. Only he and a few lieutenants in Anqing know about it. Even the whistle sent by him to monitor here is only following orders, and he even guards here himself.
Before the operation tonight, no one in the camp knew about it, so the news must not have leaked from him.
But if the news didn't leak from him, where did it leak from?The only possibility is that there are also people inside those people.
Once the rebels were discovered, many ministers in the court participated in the discussion, and those who planned the plan knew something about it.
If this is the case, then the matter is big!
The original meticulous and meticulous plan fell through, Xu Ming immediately wrote a letter to the people in Beijing, and at the same time ordered soldiers to surround the entire Jingshan City and search the city and its surroundings.
When we found out before, the rebel army had a size of tens of thousands. Although there were only a few hundred generals here, it was not so easy to leave all of them quietly.
002
In the border garrison camp, Xu Jun looked at the request for instructions on the table in front of him, and didn't write for a long time.
"Sir?" The cooks on the side looked at Xu Jun.
The request for instructions in front of Xu Jun was brought by several of their cooks.
The battle situation ahead is unstable, and it has become more and more restless in recent days, so the kitchen is preparing to make dry food in advance.
The accountant in the camp was about to be evacuated to the city, and it would be very troublesome if everything was evacuated, so a few cooks came to Xu Jun and asked Xu Jun to keep some food, so that they would have to leave the city when they could. Move over there.
"The dry food you are talking about is the discus?" Xu Jun still remembered the thing that couldn't be chewed.
When they went to Jingshan City before, he had eaten this food for a long time on the way, and it was because of eating that he remembered it deeply, and even talking about it after such a long time, Xu Jun still felt a toothache.
Tao Chi even told him with a smile that the thing is a treasure, and it can be used as a hidden weapon to hit people in the battlefield, and maybe it can also be used as a shield...
Xu Jun doesn't know if he can be a shield, but it is definitely possible to smash people to death anyway.
"Wait for this matter, I'll go to the general's side first." Xu Jun received the request for instructions and walked out the door.
After what happened that day, General Ghost Face no longer avoided Xu Jun.
After that, Xu Jun didn't keep forcing General Ghost Face to give him an answer, but every time he went to find someone again, General Ghost Face obediently stood where he was and didn't run away.
When Xu Jun found the ghost-faced general, the ghost-faced general was in the warehouse behind the accountant, directing other soldiers to help move things to the city.
After that day, Tao Chi became really busy for some reason, he hardly touched the ground, Xu Jun seldom saw him.
So for some reason, the matter of helping the warehouse retreat fell on General Ghost Face.
"General." Xu Jun ran to General Ghost Face, told him about making dry rations, and asked him to save some of the rations.
"I see, I will let them keep some of their stuff."
Xu Jun didn't leave immediately, but stood beside General Ghost Face, looking at the soldiers who were busy in the warehouse.
Those people put aside the things that the chef needed, and Xu Jun went over to take a look, and found that they were all ordinary chestnut rice and ingredients.
"how?"
"Then the discus is made of these things?"
General Ghost Face nodded. Most of the food for the soldiers is mainly chestnut rice and wheat. Although a lot of seasonal vegetables are added in it according to the season, the main food is chestnut rice and wheat.
Seeing Xu Jun frowning and saying that the thing was a discus with a toothache, General Ghost Face couldn't help smiling.
He was used to seeing and eating that stuff in the camp, but he also knew that many people said that it was like a rock, not to mention hard, and tasteless.
"Most of the marching rations are like this. Although it is harder and tastes worse, it also has its own advantages. At least it can reduce a lot of things during the march, and it can also make the soldiers full and withstand hunger."
The big battle starts with soldiers marching, and sometimes it takes several days to advance quickly without stopping, or it takes several days to hide and ambush. At these times, there is no way to open fire, which will slow down the marching speed and expose yourself.
Although the food is unpalatable, it can withstand hunger and is easy to carry.
Xu Jun frowned slightly, with a look of disapproval.
"That thing can be stored for a long time. It can be stored for about 20 days in summer, and at least [-] days in winter. This is one of the main reasons why the army chooses that thing." General Ghost Face said again.
Sometimes, the army needs to fight for as long as ten days.
During the battle, the soldiers must not be able to work and rest as usual, and it is impossible for the army to bring a few cooks to cook behind the army. Rely on this thing.
"Can't this thing be changed?" Xu Jun went up to look at the chestnut rice and ingredients again.
The discus was made by grinding chestnut rice into powder, and then adding some other things into it. Although Xu Jun didn't know how it could be stored for such a long time, why couldn't the taste be changed?
Even if it's just a little softer.Otherwise, if you encounter a soldier with bad teeth, you have to die in a hurry?
"You want to change?" General Ghost Face saw Xu Jun's plan almost immediately.
"You can try it."
General Ghost Face looked at the greedy Xu Jun and was silent for a moment. After thinking for a while, he nodded, "Yes, but remember that the taste of the things you make should not be too strong, and they should be easy to carry and store for a long time."
"Can't the taste be too big?" Xu Jun, the greedy cat who was swallowing his saliva, looked over because he thought of a lot of delicious food.
"To avoid the ambush, the enemy army can smell the fragrance a few miles away."
Xu Jun was taken aback for a moment, then giggled.
The ghost-faced general quietly looked at the man who was smiling at him, and couldn't help but chuckle.
After Xu Jun confessed to him, he himself was a little confused about what he was thinking.He knew that his feelings for Xu Jun were true, but the hatred was still fresh in his memory.
After that, Xu Jun didn't force him to ask him, which made him feel a lot easier, and I am very grateful to Xu Jun.
He already knew the answers to some things, but he really needed time to digest them, and now he was somewhat at a loss as to how to face Xu Jun.
After all, he and Xu Jun have already done such a thing, which made it almost impossible for him to look directly at Xu Jun...
"It turns out that the general can tell jokes."
The ghost-faced general was silent.
But Xu Jun leaned closer, his entire face was almost stuck to the mask, "General."
"Ok?"
"You're so cute!"
After resting for a while, the flesh on Xu Jun's face has grown back. It looks white and fleshy, giving people a particularly easy-to-pink feeling.
His slightly parted lips were pink, and with his movements and whispers, all his aura spewed out on the mask, making General Ghost Face feel as if the mask was on fire.
In the next few days, Xu Jun ran to the kitchen every day, learning how to make military rations with those cooks, and thinking about how to reform it.
His purpose was simple, he just wanted to make the thing not so hard, if possible, it would be best to add some flavor.
The reason why those dry foods can be preserved for such a long time is simpler than Xu Jun imagined, because the cook added some special grass juice to them when making them.
Those grass juices are tasteless and keep food longer, the only downside is that it makes things harder.
A large part of the reason why I have been making that kind of discus is because it is simple and fast to make. There are tens of thousands of soldiers in the army. If the production is troublesome and complicated, then they, the cooks, will not be able to make it.
After figuring out the specific situation, Xu Jun went back to the cashier to ponder for a few days, and then took the list and went to those people again.
That kind of cake was originally a kind of scone. It is made of chestnut rice flour and some ingredients to knead into dough, and then baked directly in the stove or pot. It is simple and fast.
If Xu Jun wants to transform the military rations, it is naturally impossible to make things more troublesome. If he just blindly pursues the taste and makes the workmanship more troublesome, the loss outweighs the gain.
Xu Jun pondered for a few days, and the thing he figured out was very similar to this thing. It was the same cake, but what he made was light cake.
It can't be said to be Guangbing, it's more like an unknown pancake that imitates Guangbing.
The main material of the previous discus was only chestnut rice, but Xu Jun added a bunch of messy things in it, not to mention onions and garlic, there are many other things like pumpkins and radishes.
After having specific ideas, Xu Jun discussed the feasibility with the chef, and finally selected several seemingly feasible solutions.
Then it was the work of those chefs. Before they tried to make something, Xu Jun ran to the pasture on the other side of the city.
There is actually one more thing to eat in the camp, but it wasn't there before, but now it is.
When Xu Jun bought cattle and sheep before, the cattle and sheep were all small ones. Not long ago, the lambs gave birth and had goat milk.
Goat milk is a good thing. It can not only be drunk directly, but also can be used to make many other foods, such as cheese.
Cheese is not uncommon in their camp, because they didn't raise cattle and sheep before, so they didn't have any.On the other hand, Xiaguo is relatively more common, so they all know that there is such a thing.
When Xu Jun came back from the city, the cafeteria had already had results, and several chefs tried to make some of them according to what they had discussed with Xu Jun.
After Xu Jun heard the news, he immediately went to the cafeteria. When he walked past the school grounds, he saw Tao Chi and two lieutenants. He immediately stepped forward and pulled them to the cafeteria.
After entering the cafeteria, Xu Jun went into the kitchen and chatted with several cooks for a while, and then went out with two big plates of cakes, and put a plate in front of the two lieutenants, one in front of the other.
"What are you doing?"
Tao Chi looked at the cake in front of him and then at Xu Jun. He had given Xu Jun a psychological shadow before, so why did Xu Jun give him something to eat all of a sudden?
"Try it."
"I'm not hungry..." Tao Chi refused, he didn't want to die yet.
Seeing Tao Chi like this, the other lieutenant also sat obediently and did not dare to move.
Xu Jun became angry, "I was just trying to improve the military rations, but no one was trying to taste them, so I brought the two of you here."
"Army rations?" Tao Chi was skeptical.
"He doesn't eat, you eat." Xu Jun pushed the food in front of another lieutenant general.
The deputy general looked at Tao Chi and then at Xu Jun. After seeing Xu Jun dancing his fists, he took the thing in front of him numbly, broke it open carefully, put it in his mouth and tasted it.
"how do you feel?"
"Well, it's good, it's delicious." After tasting the taste, the deputy general let go, and started to eat in big mouthfuls.
What he got was a pumpkin pie, which contained a lot of pumpkin slices. Compared with the discus before, it was much softer because of the pumpkin, and it tasted better.
"Try the others." Xu Jun hurriedly handed over the others.
Seeing this, the deputy general took them over and tasted each of them.
Tao Chi watched from the side for a while, seeing that the lieutenant general hadn't fallen to the ground, and a ghost-faced general with a machete hadn't rushed out beside him, so he took the cake in front of him and broke it open to eat.
This time Xu Jun came up with only a few kinds of cakes, and most of them use some ingredients that are still in the camp. It doesn't take too long to try these few things.
After the two finished their food, Xu Jun quietly looked at the two of them for a while, and then went to the side to pour a glass of water for them as if thinking of something.
"The pumpkin pie is good. If I could change the discus, I'd like it." Tao Chi rubbed his stomach, drank the water poured by Xu Jun himself, and felt relaxed.
"I like that thing too."
Xu Jun nodded and wrote it down.
After a while, he tentatively asked, "Do you feel any discomfort?"
The two of them, who were still at ease just now, froze. Did Mr. Xu give something that would make them uncomfortable?
The two immediately turned their heads to look at Xu Jun, but the latter blinked innocently, "Is there any pain?"
Tao Chi was about to cry, "What the hell did you do?"
"It's nothing, didn't I say it, because this thing is a new idea, I don't know what will happen if I eat it, so I let you two try it."
The faces of the two lieutenants turned pale, so Xu Jun asked them to test the poison?
Xu Jun looked at the two of them for a while, and seeing that neither of them was in pain or foaming at the mouth, he nodded cautiously, with a reassured expression, "It seems that they won't die."
003
He said that those things could be eaten in the first place, and they should not kill people if they are put together.
After hearing Xu Jun's words and seeing Xu Jun's expression, Tao Chi and the deputy general immediately stood up in horror. What exactly did Xu Jun eat for them?I don't know if it's too late for them to spit it out now?
"Then pay attention to both of you before tomorrow. If you feel uncomfortable, remember to tell me first."
The two silently ignored Xu Jun's words, and decided to go to the military doctor's side to have a look later. They didn't want to die yet.
"If it's okay, I'll go to the general's side." Tao Chi stood up, ready to leave.
Just as he was talking, a group of people walked in from outside the door.
At about the same time, the sound of the supper call also sounded.
Xu Juncai put the dishes on the table back, and when he turned around, the cafeteria was already full of soldiers.
Seeing those people, Xu Jun, Tao Chi and the other three walked to the side, preparing to leave from the small gate.
After taking a few steps, Xu Jun's attention was attracted by the group of people, because they were talking about General Ghost Face.
They didn't say anything about General Ghost Face, but there was something in their words.
Since the anti-military incident spread throughout the camp, many people have paid attention to the movement over there. Some time ago, there have been rumors in the camp that General Ghost Face and Jin Qi are actually brothers.
The rumors are well-founded, from the coincidence of the time when the ghost-faced general appeared, to the trust of the emperor Jin Qi in the ghost-faced general, and the events in the palace and the similar appearance of the two under the mask.
Some people in the camp questioned the identity of the ghost-faced general, but no one went to the ghost-faced general to verify, so everyone only dared to speak in secret.
Tao Chi, who was walking in front, walked for a while, and when he was about to reach the door, he found that Xu Jun was missing. When he turned around, he saw Xu Jun standing aside, and followed Xu Jun's line of sight.
"Don't pay attention to them." Tao Chi quickly guessed what those people were talking about, his face became a little strange, he also knew the rumor.
After Tao Chi saw Xu Jun walking towards him, he said again: "I'm going to report to the general about the traitor he asked me to investigate before. Do you want to go back to the accountant first?"
Tao Chi once saw General Ghost Face tell Xu Jun about this matter, knowing that General Ghost Face did not hide it from Xu Jun, so he didn't hide it.
"You go first, I have something else to do." Speaking of General Ghost Face, Xu Jun remembered something, and he turned around and ran into the kitchen again.
Tao Chi frowned again and looked at the soldiers who were still talking about the rumor, then turned his head and walked towards General Ghost Face's residence.
Over the years, there have been various speculations about the identity of the Ghost-faced General, and there will be new claims from time to time. Most of the time, the Ghost-faced General ignores these, so the camp doesn't pay much attention to them.
However, most soldiers would still avoid mentioning the emperor, after all, it would be disrespectful.
When he reached the gate of General Ghost Face, Tao Chi knocked on the door.
After entering the door, Tao Chi immediately calmed down and became serious.
After reporting all the information he had investigated to General Ghost Face, he quietly stood aside.
"That's all?"
Recently, Tao Chi was not in the camp, and had been running around in several nearby camps, using the excuse of checking the army's preparations, but actually investigating the traitor.
But half a month later, Tao Chi didn't bring much news back, and there was even no progress compared to before.
Tao Chi immediately knelt down, "General, my subordinates really can't find anything."
The ghost-faced general was silent.
"The subordinates have investigated the actions of all the lieutenants in several nearby camps in recent months, but everyone is acting normally, and it doesn't seem to be hiding something."
"Then what about the disaster relief fund?"
"There is already a clue to this matter. It was found that the money was transiting through Xue Han's side. The subordinates followed the investigation and found that there were indeed unrecorded actions in the camp there nearly a year ago, but Because the time has been quite long, it will take some time to be sure."
Jinyi has embezzled disaster relief funds for several years, and the money had disappeared when Jinyi had an accident, almost a year ago.
"Continue to investigate, give priority to investigating Xue Han's side."
Tao Chi turned pale, "Yes."
"Go down!"
Tao Chi left, General Ghost Face leaned back on the back of the chair.
Even if he didn't believe that Xue Han would betray him, this matter must come to a conclusion as soon as possible, and it can't be dragged on like this.
"General?"
Hearing Xu Jun's doubtful voice, when General Ghost Face looked down, Xu Jun was already standing at the door.
"I see that the door is not closed." Xu Jun held a plate in his hand with many things on it.There were some pies in it, and besides that there was a bowl of sliced cheese.
"come in."
Xu Jun went over with the things, and after putting the things on the table, he pulled a stool and sat down beside him.
General Ghost Face has noticed what he brought, "Ready?"
"Try it." Xu Jun quickly took a cake and handed it to General Ghost Mian, "Don't worry, I've tested the poison with peaches, and there is no poison."
The eyebrows under the ghost-faced general's mask raised, and Tao Chi was tested for poison?
"Tao Chi is the lieutenant general after all."
Xu Jun never thought about what would happen if he was poisoned to death?
"Ok?"
"fine."
Forget it, he has a lot of lieutenants anyway.
The ghost-faced general tore open the cake and passed some under the mask. As soon as the food was fed into his mouth, Mr. Xu came over expectantly.
"Not bad." General Ghost Face said.
He doesn't really care much about these things, probably because his childhood memories are too deep, so in his opinion, as long as he can eat and make him full, they are all the same.
Before he was six or seven years old, he almost never went out of the room where he was locked up. No one taught him to speak or cared about him, but he already had the memory of that time.
To say that he was actually pretty smart back then, at least he knew what to eat.
Jin Qi and him almost never mentioned this matter, as if it didn't exist.
But this matter does exist, even if they don't mention it, it is impossible to erase it.
"What are you thinking?" Xu Jun, who took a cake and gnawed on it by himself, was a little unhappy to see General Ghost Face wandering off thinking about other things while talking to him.
"Thinking about the traitors in the camp." General Ghost Face was not going to tell Jun Xu about that.
"Is there any result yet?"
General Ghost Face put down the cake in his hand, "Don't talk about the result, there are no clues now."
General Ghost Face said this calmly, but Xu Jun could hear a bit of helplessness from his words.
Although General Ghost Face is said to be a ghost, he is not really a cold-blooded and ruthless person. After getting acquainted with him, Xu Jun understands this better.
"Do you want me to check it for you?"
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun.
"If there is a traitor in the army, he must have been guarding against you to investigate him. You know that he is secretly, maybe he knows your every move, so how do you investigate?"
While speaking, Xu Jun put down the half-eaten cake in his hand.
When he asked Tao Chi and another person to try it before, both of them seemed to think it was delicious, but he just tasted it, and although it was better than before, it was still tasteless.
General Ghost Face understands what Xu Jun said, but he has to consider whether to let Xu Jun intervene in this matter, because this matter is not without danger.
"You also know what happened in Jingshan City, right?" Xu Jun looked at the other cakes. He definitely couldn't finish them, but he wanted to taste them.
General Ghost Face naturally took the cake, tore it in half, handed half to Xu Jun, and ate the other half by himself.
"My master and Zhu Xiaojin seem to be still there, and I can also ask them to help with the investigation. Some things are not easy to investigate from the camp, but it may be better to investigate from the outside." Xu Jun was satisfied. took the cake.
The people in the Jianghu have information sources for the people in the Jianghu. In the matter of the rebels, maybe the two of them can find things more easily than the people in the court.
General Ghost Face thought for a long time before nodding, "Don't do anything risky."
"it is good."
After answering the words, Xu Jun looked eagerly at the other cake.
He originally wanted to eat all the pancakes and taste them, but after finding out that they were still not tasty, he only wanted to take a bite of each one.
But if he only took one bite, wouldn't the rest be wasted?
General Ghost Face pushed the plate in front of him and let him take it.
Seeing this, Xu Jun quickly reached out and picked up each of them and took a bite.After he tasted all the pancakes, he also tasted the cheese next to him, and then got up to say goodbye and leave.
The ghost-faced general looked at the back of Xu Jun leaving, and did not look away until he disappeared at the end of his sight.But when he saw the pancakes in front of him, each of which had a small bite from Xu Jun, his heart beat suddenly.
If Xu Jun eats something, if he eats again, wouldn't it be an indirect kiss?
The ghost-faced general stared straight at the cakes in front of him, there was one piece, two pieces, three pieces...
In the palace thousands of miles away, after the morning court, Jin Qi walked towards the imperial study while talking to Lin Xu next to him, "Why didn't Xu Shangshu come today?"
"I heard that Lord Shangshu is ill."
Jin Qi's footsteps stopped, Xu Lan seldom did so, even if he was sick, as long as it was not too serious, he would insist on going to court.
"Show me, go to the Shangshu Mansion."
When he arrived at Shangshu Mansion, Jin Qi went straight into Xu Lan's room all the way.After entering the door, he immediately saw Xu Lan lying on the bed facing the door.
Xu Lan looked sleepy, and when he saw Jin Qi trying to get up, Jin Qi quickly stopped him, "Lie down and talk."
"What's wrong with you?"
"My heart aches."
Jin Qi frowned, "Tell the imperial doctor!"
"No need, Your Majesty." Xu Lan said weakly, "I'm afraid the medicine stone won't work."
"Why do I raise them? If this disease can't be cured, then I will cut off their heads."
Xu Lan gave Jin Qi a weak look, and lay there in silence, lifeless.
The chief eunuch on the side was about to go out to announce the imperial doctor, but Lin Xu opened his mouth at this moment, and said quietly: "I heard that Xu's residence received something sent back by Mr. Xu at the border gate yesterday evening."
"So?" Hearing Xu Jun's word, Jin Qi was not happy, he has not settled the account with him for kidnapping his younger brother!
"When Mr. Xu heard the news, he rushed home immediately. He thought it was a gift from Mr. Xu. But when he opened it, he found that it was a bunch of mushrooms that Mr. Xu was thinking about selling for others. "
When Xu Lan's sad incident was brought up again, he sadly turned over and turned his back on everyone.
"..."
"After that, Mr. Xu fell down."
After listening to Lin Xu's words, Jin Qi's face changed again and again, and finally he gritted his teeth fiercely and shook his sleeves: "Tomorrow you must come to court early, or I will deduct your salary!"
"What are you doing? He and I still have a lot of things to talk about!" When Xu Jun came back to his senses, he had already been carried for several steps, and he immediately struggled.
The ghost-faced general quickly used some strength to prevent the person who snatched it from running away.
Sensing the strength of Xu Jun's struggle, his heart was sore. Does Xu Jun want to be with Tao Chi that much?
"open!"
"Don't let it go."
After Xu Jun struggled for a while, he stopped moving, and obediently hung on General Ghost Face, allowing him to take him away.
Unsurprisingly, he was brought back to his residence by the ghost-faced general. After seeing the ghost-faced general put him in the house, he immediately went to the side and locked the door nervously. .
After the ghost-faced general locked the door, he went back to the house and looked at Xu Jun in front of him, but Xu Jun turned his head angrier than him and completely ignored him.
This time, General Ghost Face ignored him first!
Looking at the angry Xu Jun, General Ghost Face was not so angry anymore.
What followed was more confusion and bewilderment. He had robbed people and brought them back to the house to hide them. Then, what should we do now?
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a rare silence.
In the end, General Ghost Face couldn't bear it first, he said: "I will arrange for someone to help with the retreat."
Retreating from the warehouse is not an easy task. They are not only walking, they also have to take the things in the warehouse with them.
Their camp is the head of the entire border garrison nearby, and because General Ghost Face also lives here, many important construction facilities are set up here.
Therefore, the warehouse in this place is much larger than the warehouses in other camps, and it also stores many things that other warehouses do not have.
The warehouse needs to be evacuated. If there are only a few dozen people in Xu Jun's warehouse, I am afraid that even if they are given two months, they may not be able to move all of them. Therefore, someone must help move the things and move them to the city for storage.
"Tao Chi agreed to help me, and I don't need your help." Xu Jun was even more aggrieved than General Ghost Face.
It was the ghost-faced general who wanted to avoid him and let him go away. I'm sorry that he has gone far away now, he has gone far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far away.
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun, "Tao Chi has something to do." There will be a lot to come.
"It's okay, he can call someone to help."
"...He is my lieutenant general, and the person he calls is also mine."
Xu Jun looked back at the man who had become unreasonable, "Then I don't need your help, we can move out by ourselves."
"...The cashier is mine, and everyone in the cashier is also mine."
Xu Jun's black and white eyes widened, but he didn't think of a rebuttal after thinking for a moment.The biggest one in this frontier camp is General Ghost Face, and what he said was right.
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun angry, but his heart softened, "You are the accountant..."
"what?"
"You're mine too."
Xu Jun looked at the ghost face, and he studied it carefully, but unfortunately he couldn't see the expression on the face of the ghost face general at the moment, he could only see the two red ears next to his mask.
After Xu Jun carefully studied the pattern on the mask and the pair of eyes that dared not look at him, Xu Jun pretended to be fierce and went out.
As soon as he left the sight following him behind him, Xu Jun couldn't help showing a sweet smile on his face.
Xu Jun was in a good mood after returning from General Ghost Face. He hummed along the way, and the soldiers passing by couldn't help being infected when they saw Xu Jun like this, and smiled.
Xu Jun went all the way back to the accounting room, and when the person in the accounting room told him that someone was looking for him outside the border camp, he immediately went there.
Seeing a few bandits guarding far outside, Xu Jun immediately sent out a big smile.
"You seemed to have been beaten by Shuang two days ago, what happened today, did you find the money?" Those who came to look for Xu Jun were a few bandits with familiar faces.
"Bring something?" Xu Jun didn't care about this group of people.
"I brought it, that's all, I did as you said." The bandit quickly took the red mushroom that had already been packed from the horse's back, and opened it for Xu Jun to have a look.
When they picked red mushrooms later, it was already a bit late, and after removing the ones that were not dried in the process, there were not many left.
After Xu Jun looked at all the red mushrooms, he asked about the weight, and after knowing the weight, he looked like a few bandits in a good mood, "Then let's settle the score now!"
"Account? What account?" Several bandits looked at each other.
"I taught you how to pick russula, and now I'm selling russula for you, you have to show something, right?" Xu Jun was in a good mood, his eyeballs rolled around, and his face was cunning.
Several bandits choked, "You bastard!"
Xu Jun was not polite, and stretched out his fingers in vain to make a gesture that would definitely hurt the heart of this group of people, "I want this number."
Sure enough, after Xu Jun made this gesture, the bandits beside him were already screaming.
"Are you robbing?"
"Why, even if you taught us how to make it and helped us sell it, we picked it ourselves, and we put a lot of effort into it."
"If you can't, forget it." Xu Jun spread his hands, he was sure that this group of people would definitely ask him, "Besides, wouldn't it cost me to transport this thing to the capital? Don't talk about finding someone to sell it for you when the time comes. Give them a little commission."
Sending something from the border back to the capital can be done easily with his status as the head accountant or the Xu family's status, but if this business can be done, he can't just let people go for nothing every time.
"You guys are simply taking advantage of the fire."
"It's in vain that we treated you so well before."
The bandit got angry and left cursing.
The price Xu Jun offered was not low, but it was within their acceptable range, and it would only cause them heartache for a long time.
In the current situation, they have no other choice, and they can only do this. If they have their own market in the future, then they will never ask Xu Jun again!
Xu Jun was in a good mood, and stood there waving at the group of angry bandits, until they walked Xu Yuan, Xu Jun returned to the camp with the bag of red mushrooms on his shoulders.
After taking the things back to the accounting room, Xu Jun checked and packed them carefully, and immediately wrote a letter to let those who delivered the letter have a chance to help him take the things back to Beijing.
They have frequent exchanges between the border garrison and Beijing, so people often come and go, but it takes a lot of time to go back and forth.
Capital, North Korea.
Since finding out that there are rebels in Jingshan City, Jin Qi has been asking people to investigate this matter, but the situation is not ideal and it is getting worse and worse.
After the rebel army over there was discovered, they developed at a very fast speed, and it didn't take long for them to become small in scale.
What made Jin Qi even more headache was that the incident had slowly spread among the people, causing quite a commotion in the entire Jingshan City.
In addition, this incident has something to do with the always mysterious Ghost-faced General, and his identity has been clearly pointed out with reason, so rumors and rumors spread very quickly among the people.
After Xu Lan came back from Jingshan City, Jin Qi spent a long time discussing this matter with Xu Lan and Lin Xu.
Now it is impossible to shut up those people's mouths. The only solution is to suppress those people before they make a big deal out of it.
After the court confirmed the plan, Jinqi immediately wrote an urgent letter to Xu Ming in Anqing.
Half a month later, in Jingshan City.
Xu Ming, who had found the gathering place of the group of rebels by following the vines, took advantage of the darkness and led the army to surround the residential area quietly overnight.
Under the moonlight, Xu Ming, who had been here for several days in plain clothes, asked the soldiers in plain clothes guarding nearby, and after confirming that no one inside had noticed, he immediately went back to the main street to form a formation.
In the middle of the night, the army had already surrounded the entire residential area.
After confirming that there were no loopholes in the encirclement, Xu Ming ordered everyone to rush in at the same time except for the soldiers who stayed outside, intending to capture all the rebels.
After the other soldiers went in, Xu Ming also drew out his big sword and rushed in, but just after he entered this area, the soldiers on the side had rushed back to report.
"General, there's no one here!"
"Neither here."
"General..."
After the first soldier came back to report, there was a second and a third one next to him. All the vanguard troops who rushed in first discovered the abnormality. This ordinary residential area that should have been stationed by the rebels turned out to be empty. no one!
Xu Ming frowned, "Damn it, I was tricked."
He got off his horse and went into the house to search.
Most of the things in the house were still left, and some of them were left unfinished. It could be seen that those people simply packed some luggage and left in a hurry.
The leftovers on the table had already rotted, and the weather in November would take five or six days to put the food rotten, which was just before they were ready to act.
Standing under the moonlight, Xu Ming frowned, showing a bit of unwillingness on his face.
He has always been very cautious about this matter. Only he and a few lieutenants in Anqing know about it. Even the whistle sent by him to monitor here is only following orders, and he even guards here himself.
Before the operation tonight, no one in the camp knew about it, so the news must not have leaked from him.
But if the news didn't leak from him, where did it leak from?The only possibility is that there are also people inside those people.
Once the rebels were discovered, many ministers in the court participated in the discussion, and those who planned the plan knew something about it.
If this is the case, then the matter is big!
The original meticulous and meticulous plan fell through, Xu Ming immediately wrote a letter to the people in Beijing, and at the same time ordered soldiers to surround the entire Jingshan City and search the city and its surroundings.
When we found out before, the rebel army had a size of tens of thousands. Although there were only a few hundred generals here, it was not so easy to leave all of them quietly.
002
In the border garrison camp, Xu Jun looked at the request for instructions on the table in front of him, and didn't write for a long time.
"Sir?" The cooks on the side looked at Xu Jun.
The request for instructions in front of Xu Jun was brought by several of their cooks.
The battle situation ahead is unstable, and it has become more and more restless in recent days, so the kitchen is preparing to make dry food in advance.
The accountant in the camp was about to be evacuated to the city, and it would be very troublesome if everything was evacuated, so a few cooks came to Xu Jun and asked Xu Jun to keep some food, so that they would have to leave the city when they could. Move over there.
"The dry food you are talking about is the discus?" Xu Jun still remembered the thing that couldn't be chewed.
When they went to Jingshan City before, he had eaten this food for a long time on the way, and it was because of eating that he remembered it deeply, and even talking about it after such a long time, Xu Jun still felt a toothache.
Tao Chi even told him with a smile that the thing is a treasure, and it can be used as a hidden weapon to hit people in the battlefield, and maybe it can also be used as a shield...
Xu Jun doesn't know if he can be a shield, but it is definitely possible to smash people to death anyway.
"Wait for this matter, I'll go to the general's side first." Xu Jun received the request for instructions and walked out the door.
After what happened that day, General Ghost Face no longer avoided Xu Jun.
After that, Xu Jun didn't keep forcing General Ghost Face to give him an answer, but every time he went to find someone again, General Ghost Face obediently stood where he was and didn't run away.
When Xu Jun found the ghost-faced general, the ghost-faced general was in the warehouse behind the accountant, directing other soldiers to help move things to the city.
After that day, Tao Chi became really busy for some reason, he hardly touched the ground, Xu Jun seldom saw him.
So for some reason, the matter of helping the warehouse retreat fell on General Ghost Face.
"General." Xu Jun ran to General Ghost Face, told him about making dry rations, and asked him to save some of the rations.
"I see, I will let them keep some of their stuff."
Xu Jun didn't leave immediately, but stood beside General Ghost Face, looking at the soldiers who were busy in the warehouse.
Those people put aside the things that the chef needed, and Xu Jun went over to take a look, and found that they were all ordinary chestnut rice and ingredients.
"how?"
"Then the discus is made of these things?"
General Ghost Face nodded. Most of the food for the soldiers is mainly chestnut rice and wheat. Although a lot of seasonal vegetables are added in it according to the season, the main food is chestnut rice and wheat.
Seeing Xu Jun frowning and saying that the thing was a discus with a toothache, General Ghost Face couldn't help smiling.
He was used to seeing and eating that stuff in the camp, but he also knew that many people said that it was like a rock, not to mention hard, and tasteless.
"Most of the marching rations are like this. Although it is harder and tastes worse, it also has its own advantages. At least it can reduce a lot of things during the march, and it can also make the soldiers full and withstand hunger."
The big battle starts with soldiers marching, and sometimes it takes several days to advance quickly without stopping, or it takes several days to hide and ambush. At these times, there is no way to open fire, which will slow down the marching speed and expose yourself.
Although the food is unpalatable, it can withstand hunger and is easy to carry.
Xu Jun frowned slightly, with a look of disapproval.
"That thing can be stored for a long time. It can be stored for about 20 days in summer, and at least [-] days in winter. This is one of the main reasons why the army chooses that thing." General Ghost Face said again.
Sometimes, the army needs to fight for as long as ten days.
During the battle, the soldiers must not be able to work and rest as usual, and it is impossible for the army to bring a few cooks to cook behind the army. Rely on this thing.
"Can't this thing be changed?" Xu Jun went up to look at the chestnut rice and ingredients again.
The discus was made by grinding chestnut rice into powder, and then adding some other things into it. Although Xu Jun didn't know how it could be stored for such a long time, why couldn't the taste be changed?
Even if it's just a little softer.Otherwise, if you encounter a soldier with bad teeth, you have to die in a hurry?
"You want to change?" General Ghost Face saw Xu Jun's plan almost immediately.
"You can try it."
General Ghost Face looked at the greedy Xu Jun and was silent for a moment. After thinking for a while, he nodded, "Yes, but remember that the taste of the things you make should not be too strong, and they should be easy to carry and store for a long time."
"Can't the taste be too big?" Xu Jun, the greedy cat who was swallowing his saliva, looked over because he thought of a lot of delicious food.
"To avoid the ambush, the enemy army can smell the fragrance a few miles away."
Xu Jun was taken aback for a moment, then giggled.
The ghost-faced general quietly looked at the man who was smiling at him, and couldn't help but chuckle.
After Xu Jun confessed to him, he himself was a little confused about what he was thinking.He knew that his feelings for Xu Jun were true, but the hatred was still fresh in his memory.
After that, Xu Jun didn't force him to ask him, which made him feel a lot easier, and I am very grateful to Xu Jun.
He already knew the answers to some things, but he really needed time to digest them, and now he was somewhat at a loss as to how to face Xu Jun.
After all, he and Xu Jun have already done such a thing, which made it almost impossible for him to look directly at Xu Jun...
"It turns out that the general can tell jokes."
The ghost-faced general was silent.
But Xu Jun leaned closer, his entire face was almost stuck to the mask, "General."
"Ok?"
"You're so cute!"
After resting for a while, the flesh on Xu Jun's face has grown back. It looks white and fleshy, giving people a particularly easy-to-pink feeling.
His slightly parted lips were pink, and with his movements and whispers, all his aura spewed out on the mask, making General Ghost Face feel as if the mask was on fire.
In the next few days, Xu Jun ran to the kitchen every day, learning how to make military rations with those cooks, and thinking about how to reform it.
His purpose was simple, he just wanted to make the thing not so hard, if possible, it would be best to add some flavor.
The reason why those dry foods can be preserved for such a long time is simpler than Xu Jun imagined, because the cook added some special grass juice to them when making them.
Those grass juices are tasteless and keep food longer, the only downside is that it makes things harder.
A large part of the reason why I have been making that kind of discus is because it is simple and fast to make. There are tens of thousands of soldiers in the army. If the production is troublesome and complicated, then they, the cooks, will not be able to make it.
After figuring out the specific situation, Xu Jun went back to the cashier to ponder for a few days, and then took the list and went to those people again.
That kind of cake was originally a kind of scone. It is made of chestnut rice flour and some ingredients to knead into dough, and then baked directly in the stove or pot. It is simple and fast.
If Xu Jun wants to transform the military rations, it is naturally impossible to make things more troublesome. If he just blindly pursues the taste and makes the workmanship more troublesome, the loss outweighs the gain.
Xu Jun pondered for a few days, and the thing he figured out was very similar to this thing. It was the same cake, but what he made was light cake.
It can't be said to be Guangbing, it's more like an unknown pancake that imitates Guangbing.
The main material of the previous discus was only chestnut rice, but Xu Jun added a bunch of messy things in it, not to mention onions and garlic, there are many other things like pumpkins and radishes.
After having specific ideas, Xu Jun discussed the feasibility with the chef, and finally selected several seemingly feasible solutions.
Then it was the work of those chefs. Before they tried to make something, Xu Jun ran to the pasture on the other side of the city.
There is actually one more thing to eat in the camp, but it wasn't there before, but now it is.
When Xu Jun bought cattle and sheep before, the cattle and sheep were all small ones. Not long ago, the lambs gave birth and had goat milk.
Goat milk is a good thing. It can not only be drunk directly, but also can be used to make many other foods, such as cheese.
Cheese is not uncommon in their camp, because they didn't raise cattle and sheep before, so they didn't have any.On the other hand, Xiaguo is relatively more common, so they all know that there is such a thing.
When Xu Jun came back from the city, the cafeteria had already had results, and several chefs tried to make some of them according to what they had discussed with Xu Jun.
After Xu Jun heard the news, he immediately went to the cafeteria. When he walked past the school grounds, he saw Tao Chi and two lieutenants. He immediately stepped forward and pulled them to the cafeteria.
After entering the cafeteria, Xu Jun went into the kitchen and chatted with several cooks for a while, and then went out with two big plates of cakes, and put a plate in front of the two lieutenants, one in front of the other.
"What are you doing?"
Tao Chi looked at the cake in front of him and then at Xu Jun. He had given Xu Jun a psychological shadow before, so why did Xu Jun give him something to eat all of a sudden?
"Try it."
"I'm not hungry..." Tao Chi refused, he didn't want to die yet.
Seeing Tao Chi like this, the other lieutenant also sat obediently and did not dare to move.
Xu Jun became angry, "I was just trying to improve the military rations, but no one was trying to taste them, so I brought the two of you here."
"Army rations?" Tao Chi was skeptical.
"He doesn't eat, you eat." Xu Jun pushed the food in front of another lieutenant general.
The deputy general looked at Tao Chi and then at Xu Jun. After seeing Xu Jun dancing his fists, he took the thing in front of him numbly, broke it open carefully, put it in his mouth and tasted it.
"how do you feel?"
"Well, it's good, it's delicious." After tasting the taste, the deputy general let go, and started to eat in big mouthfuls.
What he got was a pumpkin pie, which contained a lot of pumpkin slices. Compared with the discus before, it was much softer because of the pumpkin, and it tasted better.
"Try the others." Xu Jun hurriedly handed over the others.
Seeing this, the deputy general took them over and tasted each of them.
Tao Chi watched from the side for a while, seeing that the lieutenant general hadn't fallen to the ground, and a ghost-faced general with a machete hadn't rushed out beside him, so he took the cake in front of him and broke it open to eat.
This time Xu Jun came up with only a few kinds of cakes, and most of them use some ingredients that are still in the camp. It doesn't take too long to try these few things.
After the two finished their food, Xu Jun quietly looked at the two of them for a while, and then went to the side to pour a glass of water for them as if thinking of something.
"The pumpkin pie is good. If I could change the discus, I'd like it." Tao Chi rubbed his stomach, drank the water poured by Xu Jun himself, and felt relaxed.
"I like that thing too."
Xu Jun nodded and wrote it down.
After a while, he tentatively asked, "Do you feel any discomfort?"
The two of them, who were still at ease just now, froze. Did Mr. Xu give something that would make them uncomfortable?
The two immediately turned their heads to look at Xu Jun, but the latter blinked innocently, "Is there any pain?"
Tao Chi was about to cry, "What the hell did you do?"
"It's nothing, didn't I say it, because this thing is a new idea, I don't know what will happen if I eat it, so I let you two try it."
The faces of the two lieutenants turned pale, so Xu Jun asked them to test the poison?
Xu Jun looked at the two of them for a while, and seeing that neither of them was in pain or foaming at the mouth, he nodded cautiously, with a reassured expression, "It seems that they won't die."
003
He said that those things could be eaten in the first place, and they should not kill people if they are put together.
After hearing Xu Jun's words and seeing Xu Jun's expression, Tao Chi and the deputy general immediately stood up in horror. What exactly did Xu Jun eat for them?I don't know if it's too late for them to spit it out now?
"Then pay attention to both of you before tomorrow. If you feel uncomfortable, remember to tell me first."
The two silently ignored Xu Jun's words, and decided to go to the military doctor's side to have a look later. They didn't want to die yet.
"If it's okay, I'll go to the general's side." Tao Chi stood up, ready to leave.
Just as he was talking, a group of people walked in from outside the door.
At about the same time, the sound of the supper call also sounded.
Xu Juncai put the dishes on the table back, and when he turned around, the cafeteria was already full of soldiers.
Seeing those people, Xu Jun, Tao Chi and the other three walked to the side, preparing to leave from the small gate.
After taking a few steps, Xu Jun's attention was attracted by the group of people, because they were talking about General Ghost Face.
They didn't say anything about General Ghost Face, but there was something in their words.
Since the anti-military incident spread throughout the camp, many people have paid attention to the movement over there. Some time ago, there have been rumors in the camp that General Ghost Face and Jin Qi are actually brothers.
The rumors are well-founded, from the coincidence of the time when the ghost-faced general appeared, to the trust of the emperor Jin Qi in the ghost-faced general, and the events in the palace and the similar appearance of the two under the mask.
Some people in the camp questioned the identity of the ghost-faced general, but no one went to the ghost-faced general to verify, so everyone only dared to speak in secret.
Tao Chi, who was walking in front, walked for a while, and when he was about to reach the door, he found that Xu Jun was missing. When he turned around, he saw Xu Jun standing aside, and followed Xu Jun's line of sight.
"Don't pay attention to them." Tao Chi quickly guessed what those people were talking about, his face became a little strange, he also knew the rumor.
After Tao Chi saw Xu Jun walking towards him, he said again: "I'm going to report to the general about the traitor he asked me to investigate before. Do you want to go back to the accountant first?"
Tao Chi once saw General Ghost Face tell Xu Jun about this matter, knowing that General Ghost Face did not hide it from Xu Jun, so he didn't hide it.
"You go first, I have something else to do." Speaking of General Ghost Face, Xu Jun remembered something, and he turned around and ran into the kitchen again.
Tao Chi frowned again and looked at the soldiers who were still talking about the rumor, then turned his head and walked towards General Ghost Face's residence.
Over the years, there have been various speculations about the identity of the Ghost-faced General, and there will be new claims from time to time. Most of the time, the Ghost-faced General ignores these, so the camp doesn't pay much attention to them.
However, most soldiers would still avoid mentioning the emperor, after all, it would be disrespectful.
When he reached the gate of General Ghost Face, Tao Chi knocked on the door.
After entering the door, Tao Chi immediately calmed down and became serious.
After reporting all the information he had investigated to General Ghost Face, he quietly stood aside.
"That's all?"
Recently, Tao Chi was not in the camp, and had been running around in several nearby camps, using the excuse of checking the army's preparations, but actually investigating the traitor.
But half a month later, Tao Chi didn't bring much news back, and there was even no progress compared to before.
Tao Chi immediately knelt down, "General, my subordinates really can't find anything."
The ghost-faced general was silent.
"The subordinates have investigated the actions of all the lieutenants in several nearby camps in recent months, but everyone is acting normally, and it doesn't seem to be hiding something."
"Then what about the disaster relief fund?"
"There is already a clue to this matter. It was found that the money was transiting through Xue Han's side. The subordinates followed the investigation and found that there were indeed unrecorded actions in the camp there nearly a year ago, but Because the time has been quite long, it will take some time to be sure."
Jinyi has embezzled disaster relief funds for several years, and the money had disappeared when Jinyi had an accident, almost a year ago.
"Continue to investigate, give priority to investigating Xue Han's side."
Tao Chi turned pale, "Yes."
"Go down!"
Tao Chi left, General Ghost Face leaned back on the back of the chair.
Even if he didn't believe that Xue Han would betray him, this matter must come to a conclusion as soon as possible, and it can't be dragged on like this.
"General?"
Hearing Xu Jun's doubtful voice, when General Ghost Face looked down, Xu Jun was already standing at the door.
"I see that the door is not closed." Xu Jun held a plate in his hand with many things on it.There were some pies in it, and besides that there was a bowl of sliced cheese.
"come in."
Xu Jun went over with the things, and after putting the things on the table, he pulled a stool and sat down beside him.
General Ghost Face has noticed what he brought, "Ready?"
"Try it." Xu Jun quickly took a cake and handed it to General Ghost Mian, "Don't worry, I've tested the poison with peaches, and there is no poison."
The eyebrows under the ghost-faced general's mask raised, and Tao Chi was tested for poison?
"Tao Chi is the lieutenant general after all."
Xu Jun never thought about what would happen if he was poisoned to death?
"Ok?"
"fine."
Forget it, he has a lot of lieutenants anyway.
The ghost-faced general tore open the cake and passed some under the mask. As soon as the food was fed into his mouth, Mr. Xu came over expectantly.
"Not bad." General Ghost Face said.
He doesn't really care much about these things, probably because his childhood memories are too deep, so in his opinion, as long as he can eat and make him full, they are all the same.
Before he was six or seven years old, he almost never went out of the room where he was locked up. No one taught him to speak or cared about him, but he already had the memory of that time.
To say that he was actually pretty smart back then, at least he knew what to eat.
Jin Qi and him almost never mentioned this matter, as if it didn't exist.
But this matter does exist, even if they don't mention it, it is impossible to erase it.
"What are you thinking?" Xu Jun, who took a cake and gnawed on it by himself, was a little unhappy to see General Ghost Face wandering off thinking about other things while talking to him.
"Thinking about the traitors in the camp." General Ghost Face was not going to tell Jun Xu about that.
"Is there any result yet?"
General Ghost Face put down the cake in his hand, "Don't talk about the result, there are no clues now."
General Ghost Face said this calmly, but Xu Jun could hear a bit of helplessness from his words.
Although General Ghost Face is said to be a ghost, he is not really a cold-blooded and ruthless person. After getting acquainted with him, Xu Jun understands this better.
"Do you want me to check it for you?"
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun.
"If there is a traitor in the army, he must have been guarding against you to investigate him. You know that he is secretly, maybe he knows your every move, so how do you investigate?"
While speaking, Xu Jun put down the half-eaten cake in his hand.
When he asked Tao Chi and another person to try it before, both of them seemed to think it was delicious, but he just tasted it, and although it was better than before, it was still tasteless.
General Ghost Face understands what Xu Jun said, but he has to consider whether to let Xu Jun intervene in this matter, because this matter is not without danger.
"You also know what happened in Jingshan City, right?" Xu Jun looked at the other cakes. He definitely couldn't finish them, but he wanted to taste them.
General Ghost Face naturally took the cake, tore it in half, handed half to Xu Jun, and ate the other half by himself.
"My master and Zhu Xiaojin seem to be still there, and I can also ask them to help with the investigation. Some things are not easy to investigate from the camp, but it may be better to investigate from the outside." Xu Jun was satisfied. took the cake.
The people in the Jianghu have information sources for the people in the Jianghu. In the matter of the rebels, maybe the two of them can find things more easily than the people in the court.
General Ghost Face thought for a long time before nodding, "Don't do anything risky."
"it is good."
After answering the words, Xu Jun looked eagerly at the other cake.
He originally wanted to eat all the pancakes and taste them, but after finding out that they were still not tasty, he only wanted to take a bite of each one.
But if he only took one bite, wouldn't the rest be wasted?
General Ghost Face pushed the plate in front of him and let him take it.
Seeing this, Xu Jun quickly reached out and picked up each of them and took a bite.After he tasted all the pancakes, he also tasted the cheese next to him, and then got up to say goodbye and leave.
The ghost-faced general looked at the back of Xu Jun leaving, and did not look away until he disappeared at the end of his sight.But when he saw the pancakes in front of him, each of which had a small bite from Xu Jun, his heart beat suddenly.
If Xu Jun eats something, if he eats again, wouldn't it be an indirect kiss?
The ghost-faced general stared straight at the cakes in front of him, there was one piece, two pieces, three pieces...
In the palace thousands of miles away, after the morning court, Jin Qi walked towards the imperial study while talking to Lin Xu next to him, "Why didn't Xu Shangshu come today?"
"I heard that Lord Shangshu is ill."
Jin Qi's footsteps stopped, Xu Lan seldom did so, even if he was sick, as long as it was not too serious, he would insist on going to court.
"Show me, go to the Shangshu Mansion."
When he arrived at Shangshu Mansion, Jin Qi went straight into Xu Lan's room all the way.After entering the door, he immediately saw Xu Lan lying on the bed facing the door.
Xu Lan looked sleepy, and when he saw Jin Qi trying to get up, Jin Qi quickly stopped him, "Lie down and talk."
"What's wrong with you?"
"My heart aches."
Jin Qi frowned, "Tell the imperial doctor!"
"No need, Your Majesty." Xu Lan said weakly, "I'm afraid the medicine stone won't work."
"Why do I raise them? If this disease can't be cured, then I will cut off their heads."
Xu Lan gave Jin Qi a weak look, and lay there in silence, lifeless.
The chief eunuch on the side was about to go out to announce the imperial doctor, but Lin Xu opened his mouth at this moment, and said quietly: "I heard that Xu's residence received something sent back by Mr. Xu at the border gate yesterday evening."
"So?" Hearing Xu Jun's word, Jin Qi was not happy, he has not settled the account with him for kidnapping his younger brother!
"When Mr. Xu heard the news, he rushed home immediately. He thought it was a gift from Mr. Xu. But when he opened it, he found that it was a bunch of mushrooms that Mr. Xu was thinking about selling for others. "
When Xu Lan's sad incident was brought up again, he sadly turned over and turned his back on everyone.
"..."
"After that, Mr. Xu fell down."
After listening to Lin Xu's words, Jin Qi's face changed again and again, and finally he gritted his teeth fiercely and shook his sleeves: "Tomorrow you must come to court early, or I will deduct your salary!"
