overbearing

Zhou Jirong's worries were not groundless.

Let's not mention the other subordinates for the time being, but he only said that he has a group of personal guards with sharp eyes and secretive thoughts, all of whom have been with him for many years, and they know his temper and temperament like the back of their hands.Except for Fang Zhen, who was born without a muscle, it was easy for others to see even a little bit of weirdness in him.

What's more, at this time, he was a bit fanatical in love, which inevitably came out in his words and deeds, and his self-righteous cover-up was not even superficial at all.

On the second day of the meeting between the two sides, besides Fang Zhen, there were two more people around Zhou Jirong. He always has rights.

Zhou Jirong didn't know if he was being overwhelmed, he always felt that Shi Weichen did this because he smelled something strange, but the other party's face seemed to be the integrity of a normal rotation, Zhou Jirong couldn't go directly to question him.

These people obstructed intentionally or unintentionally, Zhou Jirong wanted to have a private conversation with Xiaobai, and this opportunity became rare.He transferred Bai Tingyu here in private because he wanted to meet and have a talk. After a few days, he had no other bad intentions than in the past when someone cared about everything and wanted someone to take care of him everywhere.

But now with so many pairs of eyes staring at him, just like guarding against the villain who broke into the house at night, he would have to hold back his anger even if he was a clay figurine. He likes to mess with others, although he hasn't turned against everyone on the surface, and he has a little bit more eagerness in his heart. In private, he can't help but dig out the old booklets again—fortunately, he still sticks to them properly. He has been hiding it all the time—it's just that there are so many people who are distracted, and someone pays special attention to it, so he has never been given the opportunity to try it.

There was an evil fire in his heart that lingered, and he was spitting out the little flames like death, but what he could do every day was to find opportunities to meet Bai Tingyu again and again by chance, talking a lot. After a few words, it would be great to exchange a few eyes that I thought were disconnected.

Fangfang really didn't know who was instigating behind his back, and he came to discuss with Zhou Jirong worriedly that day: "Young Master, although Xiaobai was called here by you, he still has the name of a garrison after all, so come out I'm afraid it's not appropriate for such a long time. The emperor seems to dislike Xiaobai, if the emperor finds out about this, why don't he take the opportunity to teach Xiaobai? Do you think Xiaobai should go back quickly?"

Zhou Jirong felt that Fang Zhen probably had fewer tendons in his head than others since he was born in a mother's womb. He thought he was wise and powerful, so he didn't need to be as knowledgeable as him after all. Of course, it was not convenient for him to explain the real reason here to Fang Zhen one by one. .At that moment, Fang Zhen gritted his teeth and said: "My brother is far away in the capital. If he can know the little things about sesame and mung beans on my site, then it means that there are ghosts in the people around me." ! You spend the most time with me every day, and I think that this ghost is probably you! Tell me, how did you betray me to my brother?"

Fang Zhen was stunned by his stare, full of grievances, opened his mouth for a long time and muttered: "Young Lord, what are you talking about? I, I didn't betray you, what did I betray..." He was stared at by Zhou Jirong. With hairs on his back, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind and he insisted: "I don't know anything!"

Zhou Jirong thought to himself, of course I know that you don't know anything, otherwise, if you are running around, I can't beat you and let you stand here!With your brain, which is not much bigger than a sesame seed, how can you understand the profound truth of love and love? You deserve to be a daughter-in-law in another ten or eight years, eating big cakes and sleeping under cold blankets every day!

Thinking of this, he made a shameless comparison between himself and Fang Zhen, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of superiority and despised Fang Zhen once in his life along with pity. After seeing Fang Zhen once, he went to the side with a smile on his face.

It's good that Fang Zhen didn't mention this incident. In this way, he really didn't want to rush back to Hanzhou City early.Of course, he still clearly distinguishes the priorities of the matter, and he didn't dawdle on the road. He just led the crowd around a detour on his own initiative, and did the work that should have returned to the city for a few days before patrolling around.Anyway, the rest of the generals accompanying the army also arrived in Hanzhou in the past few days, and he had been out for a few days without any trouble.

Although he originally planned to take advantage of the opportunity to keep Bai Tingyu for two more days, he didn't go this way for fun. When it came time to do something, he was not at all ambiguous. After this round, he had to check the defense and military personnel from all over the place. Allocating supplies and reserves, and rarely having free time, just looking at the surface, it seems that he has taken a lot of money.

The group of people followed him around half a circle, but went around to the front of Hanzhou City, and arrived at the Hetao area that he had just conquered a few years ago.

Hanzhou has many mountains and rocks, and there are few fields. They walked on small roads. They didn't see any big villages along the way. There were only sporadic families living on a few acres of barren mountain land in relatively flat places in the mountains. , life was hard.It wasn't until this time that I saw a large flat farmland, and the population seemed to be densely populated.

Hanzhou has been a border land since ancient times, and six out of ten residents here are military households, and most of the fields here are the land of the army.They went to the largest guardhouse in the vicinity today. There were a few half-grown children grazing on the hillside far away, and they probably also had the responsibility of watching the wind and sentry. They noticed a group of them coming from a distance. All of them looked at this side together, their eyes were very vigilant, and they didn't relax until Shi Weichen gave some secret signal.

Except for Liu Duan and the others who had just arrived and didn't know what to do, the rest of the people also relaxed.Shi Weichen greeted the leader of several children again, and the older child turned his head to give instructions, and then another child who was a head shorter than him pulled out a half-sized pony and turned his head towards the mountain. He ran behind, presumably to report the news.

In fact, Zhou Jirong didn't really stay in Hanzhou City for many days, he was out and about all year round.He would come to this place two or three times a year. He might not remember how many people lived there, but it was obviously not difficult for these children to remember him alone.

After a group of people rode their horses closer, these children recognized him, and suddenly they all became excited, and ran towards the slope on the main road in a swarm.

Zhou Jirong didn't intend to stop either, he galloped towards the children, he was skilled in riding, and passed by a few half-grown children who were rushing forward without any risk, ran a little further, leaned over He picked up the youngest five or six-year-old boy who ran at the back and put him in front of the horse, led him to run for a while, and put him off the horse by the back of his neck.

The child didn't know whether he was naturally bold or fearless, but he looked so happy that he couldn't find Bei. He ran after Zhou Jirong for two steps, tripped with his left foot and threw himself over with his right foot, and couldn't stand up when he got up. As if he knew it hurt, he was so excited that he only knew how to scream and giggle.

Bai Tingyu and the others seemed to be no longer surprised, and took the rest of the children up one by one, and ignored the cattle and sheep grazing on the slope for the time being, and ran after Zhou Jirong to the village.Although there were not many words along the way, everyone showed some relief and joy on their faces.
