"By the way, Brother Xiao, Duan Yu's letter to me said that he wants to stay in Fengyang City for a while..." Lin Qi suddenly said.
"What?" Xiao Chen was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he understood, "Oh, he wants to collect the body of his father Duan Fengnian, right?"
"Well, he just discussed with me and listened to what I said. I think the risk is too great, but he..." Lin Qi also expressed that he was very embarrassed.
"Just stay. After all, Duan Fengnian can survive a son like him. He wants to collect his father's body out of filial piety. If he only cares about escaping for his own life, he will be nothing. Let him live in the house later. We can just stay at home, it’s nothing to think about." Xiao Chen said.
"Hey! Then I'll send someone to deliver a message to Ai Lingxiu right away!" Lin Qi was overjoyed. With this big brother supporting him, he felt like he was really capable of anything!
"Eh? Why do you kid always interrupt me? What did you say just now? You can't be so arrogant when talking to the emperor..." Xiao Chen continued to teach earnestly and tirelessly.
Not long after they arrived at Wolong Pass, Gong Shouli, who had recovered from his injuries, Zhang Heng, Xu Zhisheng and others went out of the city to meet Wang Jia. Everyone was very happy, talking and laughing.
Only Gong Shouli pouted and frowned, with a donkey face.
It's not because he's recovering from a serious illness, it's just that he feels unhappy.
Hell, if he hadn't been injured, he would have triumphed with them. They had conquered Baisha City and captured Duan Fengnian alive, which was a huge feat with almost no effort. They had all achieved it, but he had not gained anything at all!
In the final analysis, it was all the fault of Xiao Chen, the bastard, because he insisted on instigating him to go on some sort of raid. In the end, everyone was fine, but he was seriously injured and bedridden...
I had been secretly cursing this guy, but now that I saw this guy's face glowing red and looking so high-spirited, I felt even more angry. I wanted to use a whip to knock him off his horse and trample him into a pulp!
"Old Gong, who are you talking about?" Xiao Chen also took the initiative to talk to him, "Which of us owes you two hundred dollars? Why didn't you pay it back?"
"What's wrong with you?" Gong Shouli immediately quarreled with him, "I just don't like the way you look like a villain. Humph, I advise you to be more restrained. When the moon waxes, it loses. When the water is full, Zeyi, there will be times in the future when you, the boy, will be unlucky!"
Gong Shouli and Xiao Chen had always been at odds with each other and would fight each other when they were together. This was a well-known fact, but it was really inappropriate to have a quarrel and personal attack just after they met.
"Are you talking human words?" Xiao Chen asked angrily, "When I was in Baisha City, I was still worried about your injury, and even ordered people to collect a lot of precious local tonics and send them to you. I didn't expect you. He actually cursed me, all his good intentions have gone to waste!"
"Why don't I just feed that crap to the dogs? I'm afraid you'll poison me again if it's poisonous!" Gong Shouli rolled up his arms, sleeves, and pulled his neck while shouting, "I don't care about your tricks, you want me to die." If you want to fight here for a while, you will be considered a good man even if you beat me to death!"
"Everyone heard it, Ang. He took the initiative to challenge me. If I don't fight with him, he might think I'm afraid of him. Don't try to persuade me today. I'll just punch and kick you." It won't matter if you beat him to death!" Xiao Chen was also anxious, "Everyone, step up and make way for an empty space. Stay away and watch out for a splash of blood!"
After saying that, the horse made a circle around it, driving away everyone's horses' heads, making a clear space, pointing at Gong Shouli and saying, "Did you see it? This is your burial place!"
"I have such a bad temper! Watch me beat you to death!" Gong Shouli was furious. He immediately got off his horse and kicked away. He took off his fur cloak and threw it aside. He tightened his belt and rolled up his sleeves. He straightened his clothes, stamped his feet, and bounced a few times to warm up, showing how neat his legs and feet were.
The injuries are basically healed. He has been taking a lot of tonic medicinal soup every day these days. He is as strong as an ox and can get nosebleeds at any time. Can he withstand the provocation of Xiao Chen?
If I don’t beat the green shit out of you today, it means you didn’t eat leeks in the morning!
"Okay, if you're ruthless, just wait for me!" Xiao Chen didn't want to let him go, pointed at Gong Shouli's nose and said, "We can't do it, so we'll teach you not to panic!"
Everyone thought that Xiao Chen was about to dismount and confront Gong Shouli, and they were all ready to start a fight. However, Gong Shouli was the only one on the field at the moment, so it was not appropriate to go over and fight with him now. They just waited for Xiao Chen to dismount and come over. The big guys swarmed up again and grabbed each other.
After all, it's okay to have some conflicts between the commander and the supervisor. It's normal to curse each other, but it won't look good if they start fighting. It's even worse if one of them is injured. The prince won't be able to explain it to the emperor when he goes back... …
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen immediately left as soon as he hit the horse, and left...
After walking all the way, there were cruel words coming, "Old Gong, if you have the guts, just wait for me. If you have the guts, don't touch the ground. I'll beat you to pieces and make you cry for father and mother..."
The horse galloped, and the sound became weaker and weaker, gradually disappearing in the wind.
Everyone looked at his horse running away, and then turned to look at Gong Shouli who was messy in the wind. No one dared to laugh, they all blushed and gritted their teeth. The scene was very embarrassing for a time...
"Shou Li, look at you, what are you trying to do with Xiao Chen?" Li Qiu suppressed a smile and said, "Here comes someone, why don't you help Eunuch Gong get on the horse and go back? This man who has just recovered from a serious injury will be blown away by the wind for a long time. not good."
"I have to beat him to death today!" Gong Shou beat his chest politely, his face turning pale, "You can't even stop me, Your Majesty!"
Others only dared to persuade him, but no one dared to come over and reach out to hold him. In the end, Xiao Ye came over and personally carried him onto the horse, "Brother Gong, let's go back first. Let's see if my brother will come back..."
"You're so angry with me!" Gong Shouli mounted his horse and was still trembling with anger, "Xiao Ye, you kid, don't stop me from beating him to death!"
It's as if as long as the prince doesn't care and Xiao Ye doesn't stop him, he can really beat Xiao Chen to death...
"Uh... I think it's better not to fight." Xiao Ye said.
"Why do you still feel sorry for him?" Gong Shouli's eyes widened, very dissatisfied with Xiao Ye's stance.
He had a good relationship with Ling'er and also had a good relationship with Xiao Ye. When he was in Yizhou, Xiao Ye was entrusted by Ling'er to protect him and was almost inseparable from him. He was very moved, so even though he hated Xiao Chen, he treated Xiao Ye Wild but good.
"I feel sorry for you!" Xiao Ye said with a smile, "You can't beat my brother."
When it comes to bickering, Xiao Chen and Gong Shouli are evenly matched. When it comes to fighting, even ten Gong Shouli are no match for Xiao Chen...
That won't work either, I have to beat him today!
It was not easy to do anything at the reception banquet. When the banquet was over, he went straight to Xiao Chen's residence, pushed aside everyone, and kicked the door open, but suddenly he felt a dazzling golden light, what the hell is this?
"It's the light emitted by the Golden Buddha, Old Gong." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "You are an expert and you usually embezzle a lot. Come here and identify whether it is pure gold?"
