Chapter 258 Chapter 258: Don’t ask for progress [Please vote for me]
Although Gong Xiqiu had received the news in advance, he couldn’t help but change his face when he heard the order to withdraw troops.
After leading his troops back, he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water. He rushed to his adoptive father angrily, and heard the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music before he even got close. Opening the door, hot air mixed with the aroma of wine and rouge hit your face. He said loudly: "Father——"
The old general put down the wine bottle.
No surprise: "A Nian is here, sit down."
He raised his eyes and saw that Gong Xiqiu was still dressed in armor.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the weapon on his waist and frowned slightly.
He looked suddenly unhappy.
"A Nian, what do you look like?"
Gong Xiqiu casually took off his weapon and threw it to the soldier standing by the door. He strode forward and said anxiously: "Yi Father, the Alliance Army is just a ragtag group of people, gathering the strength of all the generals to eliminate them is like picking up something from a bag, why should we withdraw our troops?"
The old general thought Gong Xiqiu was going to say something.
This is not unexpected, it was said by Gong Xiqiuhui.
But being mentally prepared and actually hearing it are two completely different moods. The old general put down his wine bottle with an unpleasant clang and said with a calm expression: "A-Nian, you are getting more and more unseemly! I'll wait. Just follow the order carefully, don’t ask any questions about anything else.”
The staff member sitting at the lower right didn’t even move his eyelids.
Gong Xiqiu stopped talking: "But——"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a somewhat familiar veteran. Gong Xiqiu cast his cold eyes over him - he was very familiar with this old guy. He is an old man who has followed his adoptive father for many years. He has no skills but is good at flattering and causing trouble. In addition, he is also related to the old general and is accustomed to relying on his elders.
He said: "Major General Gongxi's words were so light. Before the expedition, those heroic words were still in my ears. What was the result? In the confrontation with the rebels, more than two thousand elite troops were lost. The troops failed, and they were disgraced. Liu Liu led his troops back and suffered heavy losses. Now he said that the Allied Army was a mob... Is this because he was unable to shirk responsibility and was afraid of being blamed? "
Others present were silent.
These days, they have been feasting every day, and their bodies are exhausted. It's not that they don't want to fight and make meritorious deeds, but even Gong Xiqiu can't get any advantage from the alliance army, so they feel a little bit drummed in their hearts, secretly spreading the wrong news - the alliance army is still quite tyrannical.
Coupled with the order from above to withdraw troops——
They just took advantage of the situation.
As for the run on Gong Xiqiu?
Hey, there are many people who can't stand Gong Xiqiu's barbarian behavior. It's just because of Gong Xiqiu's unbeatable record and the old general's defense that they have to endure it. . Now I have the opportunity to watch "Warrior" jump out and ridicule Gong Xiqiu, tsk tsk tsk, you can't miss such a good opportunity to watch a movie.
Everyone seems to be lowering his head to taste the wine, but in fact, he is secretly raising his ears to "listen" to the excitement, and some who are more "foresighted" are secretly accumulating strength - if the barbarian Gong Xiqiu suddenly goes crazy, he himself It's better to evacuate as soon as possible to avoid being affected.
To their disappointment, Gong Xiqiu did not get angry.
He just snorted sarcastically.
His eyes fell on the old general, waiting for a reply.
The old general scolded his confidants who were jumping up and down, then softened his face and said comfortingly: "Winning or losing is a common matter for military strategists. No one dares to say that he is victorious in every battle. Looking down on the heroes of the world is like a frog in the well. Sooner or later he will be defeated. It's a big loss. Ah Nian, it was not my father's intention to withdraw the troops. Due to the military order, I had to obey. "
The same sentence was written all over his seemingly loving eyes.
【A-Nian, don’t be willful. 】
Seeing that Gong Xiqiu didn't say a word, the old general was ready to talk to Xini again: "I've been running all the way. I see you're tired too. Let's go down and have a rest."
Gong Xiqiu stood still for a long time.
The old general’s face became darker and darker.
Finally, unwilling to clasp his fists, the young man turned around and walked away. His steps were no longer as light as before, and every step seemed to be venting his inner dissatisfaction. Without Gong Xiqiu, the spoiler, the music that had stopped started playing again, people were pouring wine, and people were joking.
The staff messenger said: "The temper of the young general..."
The old general said: "Young people are very popular."
"The general will not send someone to explain to the young general?" The staff messenger spoke very calmly, but if Gong Xiqiu is here, you can taste it from his words With a bit of ridicule, he said to the old general, "It's not worth it to avoid hurting the harmony between father and son."
"It doesn't matter, A Nian is not the kind of person who likes to be petty." The old general knew nothing. He waved his hands and said in a serious tone, "This child is also very forgetful. However, what the messenger said is not unreasonable. A Nian is still so old and still can't calm down... It's just a mistake... The world There are many heroes, but he can't really be invincible..."
With just a few words, the old general attributed Gong Xiqiu's temper to the failure of sending troops instead of being dissatisfied with King Pig's order.
The staff member smiled and said nothing.
Gong Xiqiu turned around and walked away before returning to normal.
The subordinate officer waited for a long time and trotted to catch up.
"Young General."
He looked a little uneasy.
Gongxi Qiu’s treatment is not harsh and ruthless, but high-level brave warriors have an aura of being calm and self-reliant. When they are in a bad mood, the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth will also be affected by it and become chilly and cold. Harsh. Other brave warriors will be very uncomfortable if they get close.
I'm afraid subconsciously.
Gong Xiqiu waved his hand: "Go back home."
The subordinate officer asked: "Aren't you going to the barracks?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "No! Too bad! It’s boring.”
The subordinates couldn’t help but feel numb when they heard him complain about boredom.
Because every time Gong Xiqiu complained about being bored, he would find fun for himself, either singing, drinking, dancing, singing, drinking and dancing, or having people play beads with him... Just thinking about it Just desperate.
"Major General..." The voice was somewhat pleading.
Gong Xiqiu waved his hand and let him go generously.
Returning to the house where he temporarily lived, Gong Xiqiu keenly smelled a strange smell in his territory - this smell was not dangerous, on the contrary, it was very weak and harmless.
Seeing the source of the breath, he remembered.
Previously, the adoptive father had used soft and hard force on his dancing girl.
The woman's outfit this time had much more fabric than the previous one. It was covered tightly from head to toe and wrapped in a barrel shape from top to bottom. Her features were almost invisible. When she saw Gong Xiqiu I was stunned when I came back, as if I didn't expect to see Gong Xichou again so soon.
The hand holding the plum branch froze and stood there.
She was at a loss.
Stuttering: "This, this flower is..."
Gong Xiqiu waved his hand to indicate that she didn't need to explain any more.
Ask: "I have been away for a few days, has anyone given you trouble?"
The woman shook her head: "No, everything is fine."
See Gong Xi Qiu? Leaving behind her own thoughts, she felt blessed, hugging the plum blossom branches and preparing to leave. As soon as she took a step forward, she heard Gong Xiqiu ask her a strange question: "Can you play beads?"
The woman was shocked: "Huh?"
Playing beads...
Literally.
That is a skinny game that even women in the boudoir despise, but Gong Xiqiu enjoys it endlessly. Women naturally cannot do it, but she can help pick up the beads that are thrown away. The woman's thick clothes made it difficult to move, and she seemed clumsy and naive when running.
After a while, sweat broke out on my forehead.
Gong Xiqiu saw it and said, "Oh, it's really different."
The woman asked in confusion: "What's the difference?"
Gong Xiqiu threw the beads casually, and the round, shiny longan pearls fell steadily into the porcelain vase where the woman put plum blossom branches. He smiled and said: "I know A Mama, oh, the 'girl' as you are used to calling her, has such physical strength that she can travel eight hundred miles at night without taking a breath!"
Hearing this, the woman became suspiciously silent.
"A night attack... eight hundred miles?"
Gong Xiqiu explained: "A very serious night attack of eight hundred miles."
The woman became more and more puzzled. She looked at Gong Xiqiu blankly and said without asking for any explanation: "Is there anyone unreasonable in the eight hundred miles of night attack?"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
The woman licked Gong Xiqiu's words carefully.
He said in amazement: "There is such a heroine!" Gong Xiqiu skipped the discussion about seriousness and improperness with a nonchalant look, and threw the beads again in a fancy way - this time it was the "mother and son chasing soul style" , one bead was thrown first, and when it was about to fall in mid-air, the second bead hit and used the force, and the two beads fell into the porcelain bottle one after another - two ding-dong sounds were very pleasant to the ear.
He said: "Well, she is also a great 'lady'."
A woman who is a scholar is called a lady.
The last time I met Shen Tang in private, my already high favorability level increased a lot. He has never seen a confidant who is so in line with his wishes. He seems to be fine anywhere. The woman heard Gong Xiqiu's comment and asked curiously: "But the young general's beauty?"
"A beauty?"
Gong Xiqiu expressed his incomprehension.
It's not that he doesn't understand the word "beauty", but——
Compared with "beauty", he feels that the word bosom friend is more suitable.
Furthermore——
Every beauty will fight to the death when they meet.
He hit Shen Tang hard, and Shen Tang hit him equally.
Gong Xiqiu shook his head: "Not really."
The woman said in surprise: "You can't get what you asked for, the young general?"
Gong Xiqiu: "..."
< br>The woman didn’t know what she thought of. She sighed: “It’s just that to be admired by the young general, she must be a peerless beauty.”
Sitting in a lazy posture, he sat up straight in an instant, and he finally understood that he and the woman were inseparable. To be honest, they are not on the same channel at all.
Gong Xiqiu reminded her.
“Mama can travel eight hundred miles at night without losing breath.”
Do you call this a peerless beauty who is “outstanding in color”? ? ?
The woman's mind also turned around, and she said in a nonchalant manner: "I can't imagine that the military formation is not a woman's business..."
After hearing this, Gong Xiqiu couldn't help but He started complaining to the woman: "At some banquet earlier, I heard an old woman reprimanding her daughter-in-law for saying, 'Talent is not a girl's thing.' Everyone around praised her. You also said that military formation is not a girl's thing... Don't you need to learn nothing about co-writing?" ”
I couldn't help but look at the woman with a look like "Why are you so lazy?" She didn't learn this or that--it made Mama even more rare.
If we use beads as a metaphor, it is definitely the largest, brightest, roundest and most outstanding one among all the beads he has collected!
Woman: "..."
Gongxi Qiu raised his thick eyebrows and said sternly: "Then what do you know?"
The woman was so frightened that she shook, photographed in With the aura of a brave warrior, with a white face, he said, "Learn, learn how to control the middle minister, how to be filial to your parents-in-law, how to serve your husband..."
She has a good family background and good looks.
Her father also intended to use her future marriage to win over people and increase her strength. He also allowed her to study and become literate, and privately hired teachers who were proficient in dance and music to teach her. Women also like it and learn it similarly.
Originally it was reserved for future boudoir fun with my husband.
Unexpectedly, this became a life-saving straw for her. He was targeted because of his appearance and figure, and was rewarded with Gong Xiqiu because of his outstanding dancing skills.
Gongxi Qiugu muttered: “Don’t seek to make progress.”
Woman: "..."
When did she stop seeking improvement? ? ?
Seeing that her eyes seemed unconvinced, Gong Xiqiu opened his mouth to argue with her: "Are you unconvinced? Are your parents-in-law rebellious and unfilial, and do you expect girls from other families to come over and be filial? You That husband was taken four times A man with a weak limb cannot take care of himself, so I expect you to take care of him? As for being in charge of the meal, food and clothing, isn’t there someone in charge of the house?”
Woman: “…”
Gong Xiqiu counted with her on his fingers.
"After all, isn't it very unmotivated?"
Gong Xiqiu still can't understand it so far.
When I heard it now, it turned out that this one didn’t learn and that one didn’t learn. They were really lazy. As expected, Mama was still diligent and worked hard to make progress!
The woman was speechless.
Following Gong Xiqiu’s logic, she felt deeply ashamed.
When Gong Xiqiu saw that she was beginning to reflect, he patted her shoulder with satisfaction and said: "You are right if you know you are wrong. There is no limit to the world of life and learning."
It's not too late to find your way back.
The woman whose shoulders were almost slapped apart said: "..."
Having influenced one person, Gong Xiqiu was in a good mood.
The woman's face showed bitterness: "But young general, women are not allowed to tolerate heaven and earth. They have no literary heart and no courage, even if they make further progress..."
It's nothing more than a despised thing.
Even women will use "XX is not a woman's thing" to preach righteously - such as beauty is unlucky, "unlucky" is because the woman was born to bring disaster to the country and the people, or she is talented and learned and brings disaster, or she is born in a lowly place. Reliance, never say what the world is like, nor what is the perpetrator. Thousands of mistakes are all the fault of one person.
Gong Xiqiu said: "Mama is different."
Friends have nothing to do with gender.
The woman was confused.
I just know that Gong Xiqiu likes that "Mama" very much, so naturally he won't say a bad word.
At the same time——
Shen Tang sneezed several times.
"Who is speaking ill of me behind my back?"
Rubbing his nose, it still felt a little itchy.
Lin Feng worked hard on the side: "Maybe it's a compliment."
Shen Tang also thought when he heard it, he was so hot - well, how could anyone be willing to scold her: "Praise? Hehe, it's not impossible. If If there really is such a person, I won’t think of anyone else except Gong Xiqiu.”
Thinking like this makes me feel better.
Lin Feng's expression changed slightly: "Isn't that an enemy?"
Shen Tang sat down carelessly: "Those with conflicting interests are the enemies, haven't we not started fighting yet? Besides, Gong Xiqiu has an interesting temperament, and I won’t lose out on making friends. He has a lot of experience and a lot of health, so it’s best to brush him when he lacks experience.”
Lin Feng barely understood the first two sentences, and the last sentence...
"Thick blood? Lots of experience?"
Shen Tang explained: "Those common sayings don't always say that when you encounter strength, you will become stronger. ? Fighting with powerful people and accumulating experience, this is experience 'Duo', as for 'thick blood'... it means that Gong Xiqiu is very powerful and can't be killed no matter how hard he beats him, just like the pig that Wuhui killed by bloodletting, even after a basin of blood was poured out, it still didn't die. This is 'thick blood' ! ”
She said it in an easy to understand way, and Lin Feng understood it.
Just——
Shen Tang saw that the little girl looked a little embarrassed and frowned slightly, as if she had encountered something that was very troubling to her.
She asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Lin Feng sighed maturely.
"The slave family is thinking about how to maintain both loyalty and justice."
Shen Tang: "???"
Several question marks popped up on her forehead.

It is quite heartbreaking that talent is not a woman’s business.
I just think that the person who said this is very sad and short-sighted, and will only have the name "Sun" in his life.
But what’s even more distressing is that when I visited Douyin earlier, many of the comments below were - the more you learn, the more tragic you become... A mother with several children expressed sympathy and said that she has no children, has a bad brain, etc. of...
I'm really sick.
Good guy, instead of binding the little feet, wrap the cerebellum? ? ?
Mayflies who live and die, ordinary people who are confused, people who have passed their lives in a daze, how shameless are they to use this perspective to comment on a pearl that can leave a bright figure in the long river of history? ? ?
Face, so spicy - big!
