Seduction

The wind is getting cooler.

When Gu Huaifeng rode his horse home impulsively, he felt that the wind all the way was soft, but when he returned the same way, the wind became violent.

Not long after, it started to rain, and it was rare to see such a hearty rain in the northwest. Gu Huaifeng had nowhere to hide, so he gave up.Counting the entire month of April, he basically spent on the road.

It was already night when we returned to the barracks, and the soldiers guarding the outer camp were a little surprised when they saw the general came back, because they couldn't remember when the general left.

After Gu Huaifeng got off the horse, the first thing he did was to find Chen Jiang.

Before he left, he told Chen Jiang that if something happened, he would write to him immediately and let Yingfei go to Gu's mansion.Gu Huaifeng originally thought that he could stay at home for a while longer, but he always seemed guilty and couldn't let go of Northwest. When he saw his wife and son, the stone in his heart seemed to fall to the ground, and he hurried back.Probably something went wrong, Gu Huaifeng was already back when Yingfei was halfway there.

The barracks at night were strictly guarded, except for the patrolling soldiers, no one moved around. Gu Huaifeng was afraid of disturbing everyone, so he picked up the apricot blossom wine and walked. The faint fire light fell on the apricot blossom wine, reflecting a pair of strange eyes.

Gu Huaifeng turned around quickly, and the apricot blossom wine hit the armor, making an abrupt sound in the dark night.

"Zhang Jiyao?" He fixed his eyes and frowned slightly.

"General." Zhang Jiyao saluted him.

"It's late at night, why are you still hanging out here?" Gu Huaifeng asked sharply.

Zhang Jiyao didn't seem to have done anything wrong, but smiled slightly and said, "I'm here to meet the general."

Gu Huaifeng naturally understood that Zhang Jiyao would definitely know after he had been away for nearly a month, and he didn't intend to let Chen Jiang hide it, anyway, even if he was found out, he just found a reason to be sloppy and passed.

"Welcome me?" Gu Huaifeng looked at Zhang Jiyao, Zhang Jiyao did not look up, but the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Where's the general these days?" he asked.

"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. I'm in a hurry, do I need to report to you?" Gu Huaifeng said, still anxious to see Chen Jiang, just as he was about to turn around, he saw Zhang Jiyao shaking his head with a smile, "Don't dare, I will Just curious, since the general is going home, why doesn't he rest for a few more days?"

When the cold wind picked up, Gu Huaifeng frowned, "Are you following me?" he asked.

"Don't dare." Zhang Jiyao replied again, "I wonder if I can borrow a word with the general?"

"If you have anything to say, just say it here. Are you afraid that the wind will blow it out for you?"

Zhang Jiyao smiled and looked around. The military camp was set up on a flat place. At a glance, there were only patrol soldiers far away. It took more than 100 steps to get to the military camp.

"Indeed, this is a good place." Zhang Jiyao raised his head, looking up and down at Gu Huaifeng, "I heard that Marquis Chengfeng is a free and easy man, so I thought he would not be in love with his children."

"I don't dare to be romantic." Gu Huaifeng also smiled at Zhang Jiyao, "General Zhang specially stopped me here, didn't he just want to discuss my character with me?"

Zhang Jiyao raised his head and laughed, "Of course not."

"They are all martial arts practitioners, General Zhang might as well get straight to the point, there is no need to beat around the bush." ​​Gu Huaifeng said.

"Then Zhang said it directly. I have heard of Lord Hou's name for a long time, and I admired him for a long time and came to join him. Lord Hou is dedicated to serving the country, but Zhang feels sorry for Lord Hou."

"Sorry?" Gu Huaifeng narrowed his eyes.

"Zhang stayed in the capital for a while, and unfortunately heard some rumors. Did Hou Ye break up the jade pendant bestowed by the emperor and give it to Xiao Hou Ye?" Zhang Jiyao asked.

"so what?"

"Your Majesty is getting angry, Master Hou, does the Emperor know how he will evaluate this matter?"

"The emperor can evaluate it however he wants." Gu Huaifeng said.

Zhang Jiyao moved closer, lowered his voice and said, "The emperor said you are unruly."

"Hmph." Hearing this, Gu Huaifeng couldn't help laughing, "So what?"

"How? Don't you know that being with you is like accompanying a tiger? If you don't tame it, kill it. Hou Ye has been fighting all the year round, and he doesn't know the wind and rain in the capital. There is no eternal Mingjun in this world. He won't kill you, but he can still use it." You, Master Hou, wants to put down the barbarians, but kill the donkey, since ancient times, good generals have no chance to live in the world, Master Hou is foolish and loyal."

"Zhang Jiyao!" Gu Huaifeng snarled, "I don't know if the emperor will kill me, but I can kill you." After the sound fell, the sharp blade of Xinghuajiu's spear was already on Zhang Jiyao's neck, Zhang Jiyao did not retreat, but Shi continued, "Master Hou is a smart man, and Lord Hou will understand what I mean. You don't have to protect yourself, but you can't implicate your family members. What is said in the capital about Master Hou, Master Hou will go and listen to it by himself. I will know."

"You are also a smart person. You should understand what to say and what not to say in my northwest camp."

"Even if Zhang dies here today, I still have to tell Lord Hou. I came all the way here just to persuade Lord Hou to turn around as soon as possible and not to go on my own way. There are countless beauties in the world, and there is really no need for Lord Hou to do this for this stupid emperor." Waste of life in the Northwest." Zhang Jiyao said, his voice suddenly slowed down, stretched slowly and meaningfully, "Wouldn't it be better to spend more time with my wife when I have those times?"

"It's not your turn to take care of Gu's own affairs." Gu Huaifeng held the apricot blossom wine tightly, but Fu Ziyi and the young Gu Qing kept flashing in his mind.

"Master Hou doesn't know that the law of implicated people still exists, or do you think there is nothing to fear? When Master Hou returns to the capital, you will naturally understand what Zhang said."

Chen Jiang tossed and turned at night and couldn't fall asleep, so he went for a walk around, passing the city gate, Gu Huaifeng just walked away.It was too dark, and Chen Jiang didn't see clearly, so he went to ask the guards, only then did he know that Marquis Chengfeng had returned, so he quickly chased after him.

As soon as he got close, he saw Zhang Jiyao and Hou Chengfeng fighting with swords.

Gu Huaifeng swept over to Chen Jiang from the corner of his eye, and took the apricot blossom wine.

Chen Jiang still didn't understand what happened. Zhang Jiyao didn't show any fear. On the contrary, Gu Huaifeng was more flustered, "Go back to the camp." Gu Huaifeng said, and left without looking back. Picking up the corners of his mouth, he smiled mockingly, and turned to leave.

"General! Wait for me!" Chen Jiangchao chased after Gu Huaifeng.

May quietly arrived, and finally spring returned to the earth, Wu Zheng changed into a thinner dress and went to court.But Yuezhu is nestled in the north of the mainland after all, and it still makes people feel cool when it rains.

Unfortunately, it was raining heavily that day, and the officials hid from the rain one after another. Wu Zheng paced back and forth in front of the door, walked four or five times, and finally gritted his teeth and walked out quickly, just to hurry up with what he heard in the court just now. If I told Zhan Xingruo, I was afraid that I would forget some details when I spoke too late.

Zhan Xingruo got up early on weekdays, and was not an official, so he had nothing to do, so he studied and practiced calligraphy at the Prince's Mansion.In order to reward Zhan Xingruo, the emperor specially built a small attic for him in the garden of the Prince's Mansion, and gifted him many valuable classics.

Since the small attic was given to Zhan Xingruo by the emperor, usually very few people go in, but the dedicated maids will go there to clean it up. The bookstore is a clean place, and Zhan Xingruo will take a bath and change clothes before going there, and then sit there for a day.

When he raised his head that day, he saw Wu Zheng standing at the door, dripping wet. The rain was falling heavily, and Wu Zheng's hair was scattered, and a few strands fell down and stuck to his face.

Zhan Xingruo had never seen Wu Zheng in such a state of embarrassment, he was dumbfounded for a moment, and then he realized after a moment of stupefaction, "Come in quickly," he said.

"No." Wu Zheng knew that Zhan Xingruo would definitely come here to read, so he went straight to the bookstore, and walked on the winding stone bridge in the garden for a long time, his whole body was soaked.

"What's wrong, come in quickly." Zhan Xingruo said and pulled Wuzheng away.

"Why did you come back in the rain?" Zhan Xingruo asked, the incense in the room shook slightly because of Wu Zheng's entry.

"I have some important news." Wu Zheng was just like a drowned rat in a daze, but now he cheered up again.

"what news?"

"It's about Marquis Chengfeng. It was Marquis Chengfeng's request that Emperor Father discussed with us this morning."

"His request? How to say?" Zhan Xingruo asked.

"The Marquis of Chengfeng seldom gave memorials to his father, but this time he wrote a full article. Can Ah Li still remember Zhang Jiyao in the past?"

"Remember." Zhan Xingruo replied.

"There are two people mentioned in Chengfenghou Memorial. One is Zhang Jiyao and the other is Chen Jiang."

"Chen Jiang? I seem to have heard of it."

Wu Zheng nodded, "Marquis Chengfeng asked Father to divide his troops."

"What?" Zhan Xingruo asked puzzled.

"Not long after Zhang Jiyao left, Chengfeng Hou asked his father to transfer Zhang Jiyao to the Northeast. The reason was that Zhang Jiyao was too old and not suitable for the climate in the Northwest." Wu Zheng said.

"Not used to it? Zhang Jiyao is only 50 or [-] years old, and he is in his prime. What kind of high-sounding reason is this?"

"Also, Marquis Chengfeng wants to send Chen Jiang away too." Wu Zheng said.

"Where are you sending it?"

"Give it to the capital. Let Chen Jiang come to guard the capital. Leave him alone in the Northwest."

Zhan Xingruo frowned immediately, "What's the reason? Why did you send Chen Jiang away?"

"Chen Jiang has made many military exploits in the past few years, Marquis Chengfeng didn't say why he wanted him to leave, but he tried his best to recommend him to the emperor." Wu Zheng said.

"What did the emperor say?" Zhan Xingruo asked.

"Father agreed." Wu Zheng replied slowly.

"I have a bad premonition." Zhan Xingruo sat down, "The war in the northwest is tense, why is he in such a hurry to send everyone away? This is simply... Gu Huaifeng is a smart man. He understands that the situation has changed, so he tried his best There is a way to save it. I'm afraid it's too late now."

"What do you mean?" Wu Zheng also pulled a chair and sat down.

"The war in the northwest is tight, the emperor would not know that he actually agreed to Chengfenghou's request. In other words, the emperor had this idea a long time ago. Chengfenghou was afraid that his achievements would overwhelm the master, so he took the initiative to divide his troops to protect himself. But the emperor Since you still want to divide the strength of Marquis Chengfeng in such an urgent situation, I am afraid that Marquis Chengfeng's position in the heart of the emperor will not be as good as before..."

Zhan Xingruo said slowly in a low voice.

It was discontinued yesterday, and here is a small theater to make up for it:

As we all know, the military division actually likes to drink.

But he couldn't bear the fact that every time he drank, Master Gu would take the opportunity to stuff him with soy sauce.

So he went to get the wine by himself while Mr. Gu was not at home, but accidentally knocked over a small wooden box hidden behind the wine jar.

The things inside were crystal clear, but they were shattered all over the place, and it was impossible to see what it was.

The military master had a hunch that this hidden thing must be very important, so he wrapped the broken pieces in a handkerchief and took them away.I didn't drink any wine, and spent the night worrying.

the next day.

A scent crept over and woke up Zhan Xingruo. He sat up with sleepy eyes and looked at Gu Qing from left to right in a daze.

"Gu Qing?" Zhan Xingruo called softly.

"The military division is awake?" Gu Qing sat down beside his bed, "I made breakfast for the military division, and I will come down to eat later."

Zhan Xingruo just woke up a little bit, nodded, remembering what he smashed yesterday, hesitantly said, "Gu Qing, that..."

"What's the matter?" Gu Qing was smiling, the sun was just right in the morning, Zhan Xingruo saw that Gu Qing was fully dressed, and asked casually, "Are you going out?"

"Well, go see Boss Zheng, this batch of salt will be transported out by his people." Gu Qing said, a little embarrassed, "By the way, I may not come back at noon, if I am hungry, I will call someone I'll make it for you, and say what you want to eat. I'll give you a small gift to make up for it tonight." Gu Qing said and kissed Zhan Xingruo lightly on the forehead.

"Well...that's unnecessary. Just go." Zhan Xingruo said.

After Gu Qing finished speaking, she turned around and went out. Zhan Xingruo had been tossing and turning after breakfast. After thinking about it, she really didn't know how to speak. Thinking about it for so long, she has never seen Gu Qing get angry.

In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon, and the setting sun cast a layer of warm yellow on the room.In the end, Zhan Xingruo brought two jars of wine, put them on the table, and waited for Gu Qing to come back. They all said that the wine was strong and cowardly, and Zhan Xingruo wanted to try today to see if it was true.

After a busy day, Gu Qing came to see Zhan Xingruo first thing, but Zhan Xingruo was worried for the whole afternoon, and he didn't have the heart to eat at noon, so he lay down on the table and took a nap for a while.

Seeing that Gu Qing came back, she raised her head just now.

"Why is the military division sleeping here?" Gu Qing immediately went over to support Zhan Xingruo, "What's the matter, are you uncomfortable?"

Zhan Xingruo shook his head.

Gu Qing helped him to the bed, "What did you have for lunch?" Gu Qing asked.

Zhan Xingruo thought about it, then shook his head in embarrassment, "I didn't eat..."

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Why, you're so picky about eating my food? What do you want to eat? I'll do it now." Gu Qing said, just as she was about to get up, her hand was held down by Zhan Xingruo.

"Gu Qing...I, I want to drink..." Zhan Xingruo said.

Gu Qing felt her head heat up, it was just...

"The military division looks so strange today...what's the matter?" Gu Qing turned around and pressed Zhan Xingruo under her body. Zhan Xingruo lay down slowly, turned her head sideways, and Gu Qing kissed Zhan Xingruo's eyelids.

"Gu Qing...me," Zhan Xingruo said, took out the handkerchief from his clothes, and unfolded it for Gu Qing to see. He looked like he was about to cry even though he hadn't drunk, and hid half of his face under the soft quilt, only showing One eye looked at Gu Qing.

"I... broke it." Zhan Xingruo said, "If you're angry, just... hit me." Zhan Xingruo said.

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, and took those little things from Zhan Xingruo.

Can't help laughing out loud, "Who are you hitting?"

Zhan Xingruo frowned, a blush crept up to the tips of his ears.

Seeing Zhan Xingruo's appearance, Gu Qing couldn't laugh or cry, threw the handkerchief away, and lowered her body to kiss Zhan Xingruo, "How could I beat you because of an object? What does the military think about Gu?" Gu Qing asked softly.

"I thought it was very important to you..." Zhan Xingruo said.

"It is indeed very important, but no matter how important something is, it is not one-thousandth of what you are. The military teacher should stop thinking about it in the future." Gu Qing gently touched Zhan Xingruo's face, "Don't talk about this thing, someday the military teacher I'm just not happy, and I want to burn Gu's mansion to see the excitement, as long as you give an order, I will cover the whole Gu's mansion with hay."

Zhan Xingruo couldn't help laughing, "How could I do that." He said.

Gu Qing also smiled, "Gu is not joking, as long as you want, I will help you to do it, and I will not let you suffer any harm." Gu Qing held Zhan Xingruo's hand and brought it to his mouth. side, kissing intimately.

"Then... what is that thing?" Zhan Xingruo asked.

Gu Qing thought for a while, "I want to give it to a very important person. I have something to ask him tonight."

"Then... can there be anything that can replace it..." Zhan Xingruo was a little worried. During this time, Gu Qing always went out to run business. Seeing this person attending that meeting, he was afraid that it would delay Gu Qing's affairs.

"No." Gu Qing said, "It's an orphan product, if it's gone, it's gone."

Zhan Xingruo lowered his eyes, "Then...what can I do..."

"Then Gu can only force it, let's see the friendship."

"What do you want him to do? Can I help you?" Zhan Xingruo asked.

Gu Qing laughed, bent down, rubbed Zhan Xingruo's ear tip with her lips, and said softly, "I want to surprise him and ask him if he would like to have fun with me tonight."
