Cannon fodder is counterattacked by heartthrobs

Bei Mo didn't take any action for the time being, and the days were relatively calm, but there was still an indispensable camp plot in the army, and the generals were busy recruiting recruits and training soldiers, and they were still very busy.In particular, the Ninth Prince will soon lead troops out of the city to ambush Beimo, and he is discussing the route out of the city and the method of ambush with his staff almost every night by candlelight.

That night, it was Haishi, the study to the west of the Ninth Prince was still lit, the generals had just dismissed from the study, and only Ruan Xu and the Ninth Prince were left.

After Ruan Xu finished as usual, he began to tidy up the sand table, the things on the table, and the jumping lanterns in the study, covering his face dimly, his eyelashes drooping slightly, and tidying up things absent-mindedly, even through a disguised skin. Let Ninth Prince feel Ruan Xu's abnormality.

"Ah Xu, what happened?" The Ninth Prince looked at Ruan Xu and asked softly.

These days, Ruan Xu seems to be the same as usual, humble and polite, and he is well-informed when analyzing the war, but there is a bit of a countercurrent under the calm, just like Ruan Xu's inattention at this time, others may not be able to detect it, but Ninth Prince usually Compared with Ruan Xu, he naturally noticed this subtle change.

Ruan Xu shook his head, denying: "It's nothing."

The Ninth Prince smiled and said, "Then why do you feel restless these days?"

Ruan Xu was speechless, so he could only say: "Perhaps it's because I haven't had a good rest these few days, and it's fine when I recover."

The smile on the Ninth Prince's face restrained, and he reminded him solemnly: "Then you have to take good care of yourself. This is the critical moment. If you are sick, you will be in trouble. In this way, I will give you a day off tomorrow and have a good rest .”

Ruan Xu said: "It's okay, maybe tomorrow will be fine. If it's still like this tomorrow, I will take a rest automatically, and I don't need you to ask me. I also cherish myself. After finishing these things, I will go back to rest."

The Ninth Prince smiled reassuringly, and said, "That would be the best."

Ruan Xu packed his things and put them aside. Normally, he should have left at this moment, but at this moment, his eyes were slightly lowered, thinking, in the quiet study room, his voice was still gentle, which made the Ninth Prince who was reading a book couldn't help but look at him.

Ruan Xu asked: "Ah Jun, do you know that An Ran has a personal guard by her side?"

The Ninth Prince is naturally clever, and immediately thought of the guard who accompanied Ruan Xu back. The person who made Ruan Xu angry with him is naturally unusual, so the Ninth Prince also paid attention.

Although he thought of it, the Ninth Prince also made it clear, and naturally followed Ruan Xu's words.

"It seems that I heard those generals say something, but it's just gossip after dinner, it's better not to take it seriously."

Ruan Xu asked involuntarily, "What's the matter?"

The Ninth Prince gave him a playful look, and Ruan Xu felt that he was losing his composure, so he couldn't help coughing to cover up his embarrassment.

The Ninth Prince teased him: "Unexpectedly, the famous Young Master Ruan in Qingcheng also likes to listen to gossip."

Ruan Xu was helpless, and the Ninth Prince didn't tease him too much, just say a few words and let it go.

"I heard that there is a man hiding in An Ran's mansion. After all, everyone in Dajing has known about his masculinity. He saw this man on the road and brought him to the mansion. In order to be inseparable from him, even Let him be your personal guard and accompany you in the barracks during the day..." Speaking of which, the Ninth Prince stopped talking, frowned slightly, and seemed to think of something bad, so he said: "It's just rumors, it's nothing Counting, I don’t know how much it has been embellished, just forget it if you have heard of it.”

However, Ruan Xu understood the content of what he didn't say. The conversation after dinner was nothing more than rumors of sexiness, especially An Ran's not-so-famous person. Had a great time.

The Ninth Prince looked at him and said: "You don't need to care about it, maybe it's just a personal guard. And An Ranzai trusts him very much, so I go in and out with him."

Ruan Xu smiled, with a shallow smile, and didn't answer the Ninth Prince's words, but said that he was tired, so he took his leave and went to rest.

Looking at Ruan Xu's back, the Ninth Prince rubbed his brows, looked very tired, and waved his hands to take care of things.

"Master, what do you order when you call me an old slave?"

"What happened to what I told you before?"

"The old slave has followed what you said. Mr. Yan asked Deputy Guard Chen about the personal guard yesterday. I heard that Mr. Yan didn't respond after hearing it."

Ninth Prince nodded, that's enough.

"You go down."

The steward blessed himself and stepped back respectfully.

The Ninth Prince narrowed his eyes slightly, and opened his eyes with indifference. Although he had the same face, it was a bit more cold than the polar ice.

Ruan Xu is now considered his closest person, and also the person he can only trust the most. They were born of the same child. He didn't want to stop him from being emotional, but at the moment he is not suitable for being emotional.

You must know that once a person involves the word "love", he will become hesitant. At least before he achieves great success, Ruan Xu is not suitable for being too emotional.

What's more, he felt that his A Xu deserved better.

Ah Xu may have been confused by this illusion for a while, but after time passed, he would naturally cool down.At that time, he will give him the best girl and the best marriage in Dahong Country.

When Yi Leng learned that the Ninth Prince would lead tens of thousands of soldiers out of Hezhou to ambush Beimo's army, time was running out, and the Ninth Prince would lead the troops out of the city the next day.

Since Yi Leng was acting in An Ran that day, he has hardly met Ruan Xu formally. Ruan Xu seems to be very busy. After all, he is the trusted staff of the Ninth Prince, and the battle is imminent. Yi Leng also understands that Ruan Xu is too busy to take time off.

It shouldn't be because of the misunderstanding of what happened last time. Ruan Xu is so smart that he can see that An Ran is playing such a cheap trick.

But seeing that the Ninth Prince was going to lead troops out of the city, and Ruan Xu was bound to follow, Yi Leng felt that maybe Ruan Xu was too busy to tell him about it for a while, so he was not a hypocritical person and had to wait for someone to come to his door When they meet, he can completely meet the other party in person and say goodbye to the other party.

Thinking of it this way, Yi Leng became calmer.

Men should be frank, what's wrong with meeting friends?Can others gossip?

After figuring it out, Yi Leng bought some gifts and planned to pay a visit.

Knowing that Ruan Xu lived in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Yi Leng knocked on the back door of the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

It's not that Yi Leng didn't expect to go in while the moon is dark and the wind is high, but he knows that people like the Ninth Prince have some sort of dark guards with high martial arts skills, and no matter how bad they are, there are guards with extraordinary skills. He noticed that there was a master by his side.

If caught, it would be better to be aboveboard than to steal chickens instead of losing money.Others in the province feel that they have some affair.

It was a little servant who opened the door. After learning about Yi Leng's intentions, he took a few glances at Yi Leng and went in to report.Then an elderly steward came, his small eyes were cloudy, but he was extremely shrewd, and he told Yi Leng very sorry.

"Mr. Yan went out and hasn't come back yet."

Yi Leng asked: "When will you be back?"

The steward shook his head, and said with some embarrassment: "I can't tell. Sometimes I come back at this time, and sometimes I come back at night." Then he asked Yi Leng, "Why don't you go in and have a cup of tea and wait?"

Yi Leng glanced at the sky, it was Shen time, and the late summer evening came later, but the sunlight at this time also had the meaning of decay.

He thought about it, but still refused to go in and sit and wait.

"No, I have something else to do. If Mr. Yan comes back by then, I hope to tell him to let him come to me." Thinking that An Ranzai might be in the house, and he didn't know what kind of demon he would be, he again He added, "If he comes back, let him go to Changle Winery to find me."

The steward asked: "If Mr. Yan comes back late..."

Yi Leng smiled slightly, although he was already changing his appearance, he was not handsome, but there was still a faint hint of hibiscus in his smile, which made the steward blink a little. Wait for him."

"Well, when Mr. Yan comes back, I will tell him."

Yi Leng cupped his hands, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

The steward quickly said: "This is what I should do, no thanks, no thanks..."

Watching the tall and straight figure go away, the steward squinted his eyes. He heard that the guards beside An Ran were all pretty. Although he had never seen other guards, he felt that Chen's guards must be among them. stand out.

Beauty is in the bone, not in the skin.

"The steward? What else is there?" Seeing the steward standing motionless at the door, the little servant asked in confusion.

The steward turned around, as if the stupefaction just now did not exist, and only told the little servant: "Don't tell anyone about the arrival of Chen Qinwei just now. Neither can Mr. Yan!" The little servant nodded ignorantly, and he went to The study asked the Ninth Prince for instructions.

When Yi Leng left the Ninth Prince's Mansion, he took a detour to Changle Winery. He happened to pass the main entrance of the mansion, and there was a discussion not far away. He looked back unintentionally, but saw a few people hurrying towards the Ninth Prince's house. Walking quickly to the mansion, the person wrapped in plain clothes and long robes among several people has a yellowish complexion and an ordinary face, but his voice is warm and firm, and when he speaks, others stop and listen carefully.

Yi Leng stopped in his tracks, watching several people discuss and enter the mansion, and it was the steward who came out to greet him.

It seems that Ruan Xu didn't notice him, and then Yi Leng felt relieved after thinking about it. Although Lu She cured Ruan Xu's eyes, it was not a radical cure, so his eyes were not very good, and it was normal not to see him.

From the looks of it, Ruan Xu still has a lot of work to do, and he probably has to talk about things again when he enters the mansion, and he doesn't know when...

When Ruan Xu and the others entered the mansion here, he almost tripped over the threshold, but luckily the people beside him helped him in time.

Someone saw that Ruan Xu was restless and asked, "What's wrong with Mr. Yan? But what's the matter?"

Ruan Xu shook his head, suppressing the excitement in his heart, and said, "Wuhe, I just got absorbed in thinking about things, so I forgot my feet." When he said this, he pretended to turn his head unintentionally, but he couldn't see that People are in place.

He didn't expect that Yi Leng would come to him. He also wanted to find Yi Leng these days, but in the end he lost his temper as a child, thinking why the other party didn't miss him?The delay came to this time, and now seeing Yi Leng's figure, all anger disappeared instantly, and even secretly regretted whether he cared about those rumors a little bit.He should have gone to find the other party earlier, why did he delay until now.

So Ruan Xu came in and urged everyone: "Let's finish the discussion quickly today, everyone go back to rest early, after all, we have to go on the road tomorrow."

These words made everyone startled, it is rare to see Ruan Xu anxious, he has always been unhurried, but now it seems that this reaction is quite new.

Changle Winery is the latest winery opened in the city except brothels.It was originally a place for literati to drink and write poems, but these literati often have a little bit of alcohol capacity, and they don't care about drinking, and they drink face-to-face, so they often make trouble very late, so this wine shop gradually opened more and more It's getting late.

Yi Leng picked a perfect seat by the window, ordered some side dishes and a jug of wine, and drank on his own.During the period, some people also came to chat with him, and they seemed to think that he was also a literati who liked to recite poems and fight against each other, but Yi Leng mercilessly refused them to sit down.

Among them, there are many thick-skinned people who insist on sitting down.

Just like this one in front of you.

"I can't see that you have such a leisurely drink here, I thought you would only threaten and blackmail." The master stroked his long beard, rolled his small eyes and squinted at Yi Leng, his words were as sarcastic as always .

Yi Leng was helpless, "Mr. Yu, we are really destined. We can meet each other here."

The master stretched out his hand to stop his words, drew a clear line, and said very loudly: "The old man is different from you. The old man is here to recite poems and make friends, looking for the interest of meeting a bosom friend in the mountains and rivers. It is different from your purpose of waiting here."

Yi Leng was speechless, this master is getting more and more capable of acting like a literati.He had heard before that the less a person has something, the more he wants to prove that he has it.And the master once stayed in a bandit's den, and I'm afraid he wanted to get rid of his bandit smell even more, so he took root in this winery, so as to get some literati flavor.

"Mr. Yu, what you said is unreasonable. What purpose can I have, at most, to drink and listen to these people's poems and songs here, to cultivate my personal temperament, even if it can't catch up with Mr. If you can say a few words to your husband, you won't be ridiculed by him every time, right?" Yi Leng poured wine for the master, and the master glanced at him with a half-smile.

"If you really want to cultivate your temperament, why would you dismiss others with a cold face when they want to talk about poetry and songs with you?"

It turned out that the master had arrived a long time ago, and saw Yi Leng rejecting these scholars talking about poetry, songs, and life ideals early in the morning, so that few people behind him dared to approach Yi Leng.

Yi sneered, with a shallow smile, as if talking homely, and asked: "Why is Mr. Yu drinking alone like me?"

Sure enough, Master was choked.

Yi Leng guessed that this master was probably too serious, and with his bad temper, people would indeed talk to him at first, but later on, they couldn't stand it anymore and stopped coming forward.

Master snorted coldly, very disdainful: "Old man, these ordinary people can't figure it out, it's hard to find a bosom friend."

Yi Leng gave him the steps, and said: "Yes, yes... But isn't the military camp busy recently? Many staff members discuss all day until late at night, why is Mr. Chi drinking here so leisurely?"

The master stared at Yi Leng, and smiled maliciously: "How do you know that the staff will discuss until late at night?"

This is really an old fox, Yi Leng had no choice but to say: "I heard General An mentioned it, and seeing that General An is so busy, I know it."

"You have nothing to do with yourself. If you don't take the initiative to find out, why are you so concerned? Forget it, you don't want to say it, and I don't guess it." The master said, "It's a foregone conclusion, why continue Discuss, I have said everything I should say. The rest is just a matter of decision. It is better to enjoy the current life of drinking in peace."

Yi Leng was puzzled, and said: "Aren't we going out of the city?" Wasn't the Ninth Prince leading troops out of the city to ambush?

Master nodded, and said briskly: "Yes. But you have to cherish the moment to enjoy this." Master squinted, drinking wine, as comfortable as a fox drinking, no longer answering Yi Leng's questions, only occasionally bickering with Yi Leng .

It's boring for Yi Leng to drink alone, and he doesn't hate the master, although the master loves to criticize things, and he doesn't talk about it, but with someone drinking with him, the time passes quickly.

In a blink of an eye, night fell, and the wine shop turned on the lights, and it was still bright everywhere.

As it got later and later, there were fewer and fewer people. Many people were drunk and were dragged away, and the master was already tired, and he couldn't hold on now, so he left early.

"But do you need to call someone to help Mr. go back?" Yi Leng thought that the master was not too young, if he fell or something, it might just go to the west.

The master seemed to see Yi Leng's thoughts, and snorted, "The old man is very sober, so it's not so useless, but it's better to be safer. Go and call someone."

Yi Leng: "..."

In the end, he gave some money and entrusted a waiter to send the master back. He sat by the window drinking alone, watching the waiter support the master to leave with one hand, the night wind suddenly picked up, and with the wind, the master's melodious opera tone seemed to be Sent into the winery.

"Wait, wait...don't blame that gentleman, Tie Wumian, for refusing to come after sunset...just because he was murdered by a traitor..."

……

"My lord..." the shopkeeper reminded him, "My lord, the shop is closed. If you still want to have a good drink, why don't you come back tomorrow?" Seeing that Yi Leng had been sitting here all day, he couldn't help but say, "If your lord waits That person didn't come, maybe he misremembered the date, maybe he will show up tomorrow."

Yi Leng glanced at the bottom of the wine glass, smiled lightly, looked up at the astonished shopkeeper, and said, "It's impossible for him to come tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, he put down the money and turned to leave.

The moonlight tonight is dim and colorless, making it difficult for people to see the way ahead. Yi Leng thought that fortunately his eyesight is good, so he can see the way ahead clearly, so he doesn’t have to think about sending people with bad eyes back when the night is late , and don't have to think about explaining what happened to An Ran that night, whether he had misunderstood, all these things are no longer bothering.

Since he is angry, let him be angry enough!It's easy to be cold, but it's rare to get angry.

What he didn't know was that at the Yongle Winery in the opposite direction, Xiaoer also said to a man in plain clothes and white robes: "My lord, you have been waiting for several hours, we are going to close."

After a long time, the man spoke, and what Xiao Er didn't expect was that this ordinary face unexpectedly had such a pleasant voice.

The voice couldn't stop being disappointed, and murmured: "Didn't you make an appointment here...why didn't you come..."

The author has something to say: following the outline, the update will resume in the near future.

Today is the big fat chapter.

In the end, misunderstanding is the only way for young lovers to heat up.
