his robbery

Chapter 35 After the storm

Ma Congrong supported the pillar with one hand, and covered his heart with the other.He lowered his head slightly and straightened his eyes, and he closed his lips tightly into a line.Blood trickled down the corner of his mouth, and there were blood stains in his nostrils.

The people around, including the big and small officers of the brigade headquarters, all backed away in fear, only Gu Chengxi dared to step forward.Refolding a blood-stained white handkerchief in his hand, he tentatively wiped the corners of Ma Congrong's mouth.

Ma Congrong didn't move at first, his eyes froze into ice picks.When Gu Chengxi withdrew his hand, he coughed suddenly, coughing up the bloody smell from his mouth: "Crazy!"

Gu Chengxi unscrewed a kettle and handed it to Ma Congrong: "Take a sip."

Ma Congrong raised his head and took a mouthful of water. After rinsing, he lowered his head and spat out Gu Chengxi's riding boot.He closed his eyes tightly and took a breath, then he spoke again in a hoarse voice: "Don't slap people in the face when you hit someone, he's so good, he just slaps me in the face. Damn it's a disaster, the artillery rebellion can also be counted on me."

Gu Chengxi listened quietly, with sympathy on his face, knowing that Ma Congrong was really wronged this time.

Ma Congrong had just been kicked and beaten by Huo Xiangzhen. He was accused of embezzling military pay and causing soldiers to mutiny.Ma Congrong was stunned by Huo Xiangzhen's thunderous fury - the money was passed from him, and he always wanted to withhold a little bit of it. Huo Xiangzhen was not ignorant of this, and he had always acquiesced and condoned it.The Artillery Brigade has always refused to confess to the Secretary-General, so the Secretary-General will naturally hold on to the military salary and refuse to release it. This situation is also a matter of course.

Who knew the Artillery Brigade would be different, with such a temper?

Could it be that he deliberately wanted the soldiers to mutiny?Could it be that he wanted Bai Mani to lose a leg on purpose?

Ma Congrong didn't understand until halfway through the beating. After he understood, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.He knew that the reason for his beating was not dereliction of duty. The reason why Huo Xiangzhen beat him to death like crazy was because he felt sorry for Bai Mani, which made his heart ablaze. he!He set him off on the bed, and he had to set him off under the bed.At this moment, he was holding on to the pillar and could not straighten his waist, and there was no pain in his whole body.He thought that the uncle must have played very happily just now, if the uncle played more happily, he would have died on the spot.

Bai Mani's life is his life, but his own life is not his life?Ma Congrong couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart, and suddenly turned up all the past, he was so angry that he almost burst into tears.In fact, Huo Xiangzhen always did something to him, he didn't hold any grudges, only this time today, he couldn't figure it out, he believed that he was completely right.

Gu Chengxi took the kettle in his hand and twisted it, and then helped him to sit on the steps under the porch.He also squatted aside to accompany him, and he whispered: "Secretary-General, you said that the commander-in-chief is going to dismiss you?"

Ma Congrong nodded, his face was originally pale, but now he has lost all color, and he spoke weakly: "Chengxi, let me put my words here, if he dismisses me, I will leave immediately tomorrow. Don't step into his Huo's house! Let me tell you, without me at home, his life will be messed up immediately. I have managed his house for eight years, and I'm not fucking bragging! "

Gu Chengxi looked around and saw that there were no other people around, so he patted his arm lightly: "Secretary-General, you wait for me, I will go in and plead with the commander-in-chief. I know I don't have face and weight, but I will try. "

Then without waiting for Ma Congrong to answer, he stood up on his own initiative and walked towards the house behind the brigade headquarters.

When Gu Chengxi entered, Huo Xiangzhen was sitting on a wooden chair with his head tilted.With one foot on the crossbeam under the chair, he put his hands in his pockets and half-closed his eyes, with a bit of hostility remaining in his brows.Hearing movement at the door, he glanced forward with no expression on his face: "Get out!"

Gu Chengxi closed the door tightly with his hands behind his back - he had saved Huo Xiangzhen before, and today he saved Bai Mani again, so he had a bit of confidence and courage to disobey orders.

If he didn't go out, Huo Xiangzhen rolled his eyes and didn't say anything more.

Gu Chengxi walked towards him lightly, knowing that he had forgotten about it now.Some things become more terrifying the more one thinks about them, such as Bai Mani's injury.When I looked at Bai Mani in the evening, Bai Mani was only injured; when I think about Bai Mani now, what I think of is not just the injury.A boy like a flower, at the right age, before his life's career started, he had already disabled a leg - what kind of disability is it, is still an unsolved case.The best result is lameness, and the worst result is amputation.

Although Bai Mani is ignorant and incompetent, he is so beautiful.Amputating his left leg, it was like broken jade.

Stopping in front of Huo Xiangzhen and bending down, he lowered his voice as much as possible: "Marshal, the matter has come to an end, there is no use worrying about it. Besides, Young Master Bai's leg may not be able to survive, I heard that foreign doctors are capable , as long as the bones can be connected, there is hope of recovery. Young Master Bai is a child, and he is not in his seventies and eighties, so the bones grow easily!"

Huo Xiangzhen knew that he was reassuring himself, if he wanted to be normal, no matter how lazy he was to listen, he would still smile perfunctorily at the savior.But now, he really couldn't laugh anymore.

Gu Chengxi said again: "Otherwise, let the secretary-general stay here tomorrow, and you go back to Beijing to see Young Master Bai?"

Huo Xiangzhen raised her head back, took a long breath, and said nothing.

Gu Chengxi walked around the chair and walked behind him. First, he reached out and gently supported the back of his head, and then took a step forward to make the back of his chair.Huo Xiangzhen's neck seemed to be unable to support his head, as soon as Gu Chengxi let go, he leaned back and leaned against his chest and abdomen.He breathed in and exhaled slowly, and he murmured, "Little brother..."

Gu Chengxi lowered his head and looked down at Huo Xiangzhen condescendingly.Huo Xiangzhen had lost weight, and her face was so thin that her face was clearly defined. Because her eyes were closed, all her eyelashes were scattered.The eyelashes are usually hidden in the inner double eyelids, but now they suddenly show their original shape, and they are amazingly long.Gu Chengxi had long remembered that he seemed to look better when he was asleep than when he was awake, but now that he looked at it like this, it really was.

Raising his hands to put on Huo Xiangzhen's shoulders, Gu Chengxi suddenly had nothing to say - he had been planning a journey when he came here, so he shouldn't have nothing to say.But Huo Xiangzhen looked so tired that he couldn't help holding his breath and didn't dare to move.

The room was silent for a long time, and finally Huo Xiangzhen spoke first: "How is Ma Congrong?"

Gu Chengxi smiled lowly: "Secretary-General, I think I'm about to cry."

Huo Xiangzhen was silent again.

Gu Chengxi stared at him, seeing his dark sword eyebrows and straight nose.At the end, he leaned slightly: "Marshal, it's almost midnight, you should rest too."

Huo Xiangzhen supported her thighs with both hands, and her dantian seemed to want to stand up due to luck.But before he could really exert his strength, Gu Chengxi had already reached out to support him.Staggering and standing up straight, he waved his hands impatiently: "No need for you."

Gu Chengxi smiled, and didn't let go at the same time: "Marshal, don't be on guard against me. I'm a villain now, and I don't dare to borrow my courage. You just hit the secretary-general and scared everyone outside. Even Yuan Man ran away, and I was the only one who dared to come. I will help you to the next room to deal with it all night, and it will be dawn tomorrow, so we have to continue to live, right?"

Huo Xiangzhen shook his shoulders, and flung Gu Chengxi away.Taking a strong step, he said in a low voice, "Stop talking nonsense."

Gu Chengxi followed him.Huo Pingchuan's house was already uninhabitable, so Huo Xiangzhen temporarily settled down at the brigade headquarters.Gu Chengxi made the bed for him, and brought him a basin of water: "Master, wash your face?"

Huo Xiangzhen sat by the bed and shook her head.

Gu Chengxi put the big copper basin on the ground: "Master, wash your feet?"

Huo Xiangzhen shook his head again, glanced at him at the same time, and said slowly: "Thank you for your hard work today."

As if unable to support himself, he lay back on the bed: "When Mani recovers, let him thank you in person."

Then he tilted his head and looked down, his legs were still dragging on the ground.Really lacking the emotion and strength to speak anymore, he closed his eyes and stomped his feet heavily.If Ma Congrong was there, he could throw himself completely to the other party; but if Ma Congrong was not there, except for Ma Congrong, whoever served him would not be able to serve him well, and they were all weak.

It took Gu Chengxi a few seconds to comprehend what he meant, bent down to take off his riding boots, and lifted his legs to put them on the bed.When Huo Xiangzhen was finished, he asked, "Commander, take off your trousers too, or you won't be comfortable sleeping."

What responded to him was a shallow little snore.Gu Chengxi suddenly turned to the head of the bed, and found that Huo Xiangzhen had already fallen asleep.

Taking it upon himself, Gu Chengxi untied Huo Xiangzhen's belt.

Pulling the waistband of his trousers and slowly pulling it down, he became a thief who entered the house at night, staring and holding his breath and being careful, for fear of alarming Huo Xiangzhen.Huo Xiangzhen only wore a shirt on his upper body and a pair of military trousers on his lower body.The military trousers were pulled down to the thighs, revealing the tight-fitting white trousers.I don't know what material the pants are made of, maybe it's silk, maybe it's silk, but it's soft and thin, almost translucent, and the things inside can be seen vaguely.

Gu Chengxi blushed, not because of embarrassment, but because of rushing blood.He loves everything about Huo Xiangzhen, the more invisible the part, the more hooked his soul.But now, he dare not act rashly.

Everything is going in a good direction, and if he acts carelessly on a whim, it may ruin his future.And he has seen the beauty of money and power in Beijing, and his future is more important than his life.

After taking off his pants and socks and putting them on the bed, he unfolded a blanket and covered Huo Xiangzhen carefully.Finally squatting down by the pillow beside the bed, he rested his chin with one hand, and began to read with endless interest.Huo Xiangzhen who fell asleep was emotionless and emotionless, reminding him of the peace back then.He really likes Ping An, he thinks Ping An is really attractive.

Gu Chengxi lingered in the room and refused to leave, until he suddenly remembered that Ma Congrong was sitting outside.

He boldly poked his head out, kissed Huo Xiangzhen on the cheek, and left the room contentedly.Walking forward all the way back to the corridor, he saw that Ma Congrong was still sitting there.

"Secretary-General." The night covered his red face, and he squatted in front of Ma Congrong as if nothing had happened, and he acted like a loyal wolf dog: "The commander-in-chief seems to have lost his temper and asked me about you."

Ma Congrong's eyes and nose were red, and his nasal voice was heavy: "What did you say?"

Gu Chengxi replied: "I said the Secretary-General is sitting outside alone, and he is about to cry."

Ma Congrong asked again: "And then?"

Gu Chengxi lowered his voice a bit: "Then the commander-in-chief stopped talking, as if he was very tired."

Ma Congrong raised his hand to support the pillar, his legs and feet were numb, he climbed up the pillar: "Beat me so tired!"

Gu Chengxi helped him: "Secretary-General, you should go back and rest too. It's still cold at night, so don't freeze."

Ma Congrong is slender, tall, but not heavy, and easy to support.Gu Chengxi squeezed a room with him to sleep, Ma Congrong stripped off before going to bed, and stood under the electric light with dozens of wounds, all bruises, black and blue.Gu Chengxi occupied a camp bed by himself, wrapped in a blanket to watch the fun.Ma Congrong's skin is so delicate that it can reflect light.When Gu Chengxi saw it, he wished he could stretch out his arm to touch him - not for taking advantage, but just out of curiosity, wanting to see what is so wonderful about this "royal" person.

Ma Congrong counted a considerable number of double digits, then angrily turned off the light and went to bed.In the darkness, Gu Chengxi said, "Secretary-General, do you think the commander-in-chief will return to Beijing tomorrow?"

Ma Congrong replied: "No!"

Gu Chengxi was a little surprised: "I think he misses Young Master Bai."

Ma Congrong told him very firmly: "That can't be done! For the commander in chief, military affairs come first, and Mani comes second! If Bai Mani dies, the commander in chief will still have the same job; Suicide. Now that the Artillery Brigade has just finished rebelling, how dare the commander-in-chief leave? He must not dare to leave!"

Ma Congrong put his words here.After one night, Huo Xiangzhen did not mention going back to Beijing, but vigorously and vigorously cleaned the artillery brigade.All the wings of the artillery brigade were cut off, and all the officers in the brigade who were addicted to smoking were imprisoned, and the chief of staff of the magic stick was also severely reprimanded by him.

During this period, Ma Congrong never approached him, and began to recruit troops on his own.Recruiting is a fat job, and every young man is clearly marked with a price.Gu Chengxi finally gained real power on his own - the first time he took power, he worked extremely hard and would rather not get rich.After all, he was not the only one who recruited troops, and everyone went forward together, and when the results came out in the future, they could be compared.At this time, who dares to show his inferiority in front of Huo Xiangzhen?

After being so busy for a week, he was free one day and went back to the brigade headquarters to talk to Ma Congrong.Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door, he saw Huo Xiangzhen walking out surrounded by a group of adjutants and guards.As he walked, he put a military cap on his head; Gu Chengxi could see it clearly and was taken aback——Huo Xiangzhen really shaved his hair, it was so uneven that it looked like a dog chewing on it, he was basically bald.

He retreated to the side to make way, then grabbed Yuan Man who was lagging behind and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Yuan Man replied beamingly: "The commander-in-chief is going back to Beijing today."
