Xiaojun?

Isn't that what husbands call their wives in this era?

Gu Ze called out the beautiful lady like a flower, with her white skin, alluring figure, and seductive charm revealed in every frown and smile. She had already fascinated those big-headed soldiers, and the sound of their Adam's apple rolling could be heard endlessly.

Zhao Tuo stared at the beautiful woman, greatly shocked, and thought to himself: "I have long heard that the people of Yan land are open-minded and have the etiquette of treating guests with women. I didn't expect that Gu Ze would be willing to let his little king accompany me."

The beautiful woman bowed slightly to Zhao Tuo and said in a sweet voice: "I am here to serve and feed you, as ordered by my master."

As she said this, she walked towards her with a fragrant breeze blowing against her face.

Gu Ze, who was facing the case, looked at the round eyes of the Qin soldiers and felt secretly proud in his heart.

Presenting one's wife to entertain guests is a high-standard reception etiquette for the Yan people.

As long as the other party accepts it, their solitary family will not be affected in the slightest by this change of power.

It doesn't matter who comes from Yan or Qin, it doesn't matter who comes.

As for whether Zhao Tuo will accept it?

Hehe, how could a hot-blooded young man refuse to throw himself into the arms of a beautiful woman? This trick of his has been tried and tested many times.

What Guze didn't expect was that the young village chief actually refused with a serious face.

"Wait a minute."

Zhao Tuo cupped his hands and said, "Zhao Tuo accepts the elder's kindness. However, I have a heavy military responsibility and cannot indulge in pleasure. Otherwise, the superiors will know about it. Military laws are strict and it may be difficult to do so. Madam, please come back."

Hearing this, Gu Ze's mouth twitched.

The beautiful woman also looked at a loss.

Xiqigu beside Zhao Tuo whispered: "Captain, I think the other party has good intentions in making friends. I'm afraid he will be unhappy if he refuses. We are stationed here and we need the cooperation of the other party. It is against military orders to sleep with him, but let him It's quite acceptable for her to serve the food."

He has been a petty official for many years and knows this kind of communication rules very well. Rich people in the county and noble people in the country make friends with the officers and soldiers. Even the rigid Qin State cannot do without this kind of thing.

Of course, it is common for Yan people to use maids or concubines to entertain guests. It is quite unique for the Yan people to let their own princes do this kind of thing.

Zhao Tuo turned around and glared at Xiqigu.

He doesn't understand this unspoken rule. As long as he accepts it, their Qin army will be one family with the Gu family.

With the full cooperation of the Gu family, they were able to stay in Gubo Township like a fish in water. They were not afraid of the rebellion of the people in the township and easily completed their mission.

But this is a sugar-coated cannonball. It looks sweet and delicious on the outside. Once you eat it, you will put a bomb in your stomach. There is no guarantee that it will explode one day.

Today you played with someone else's Xiaojun, and tomorrow he sends gold and jade jewelry, will you accept it or not?

The techniques are upgraded step by step, dragging you down and corroding you clean. This Qin army will eventually become the blade in Guze's hand.

Not to mention the harsh laws of Qin, it is not a big problem for Zhao Tuo to accept the invitation and have a meal, but if it goes further, hum.

It’s just a woman, don’t affect my progress in upgrading.

Seeing Zhao Tuo bring out the military law, Gu Ze didn't say much and just waved the beautiful woman to go down.

"Jun Zhao strictly abides by military laws, and I admire you. In that case, I won't force you. Everyone, please drink and eat meat."

Seeing that Gu Ze did not insist, Zhao Tuo also breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Hei Butt's face was full of regret, and he muttered: "A Tuo really doesn't enjoy being so lucky. If it were me, hehe, I would definitely not be able to get off the bed tonight."

Zhao Tuo just didn't know, and still chatted and laughed with the elders.

It seemed as if the little episode just now had not happened. Everyone started eating, and the hall was filled with a harmonious atmosphere.

Of course, it was Zhao Tuo who mainly spoke on Qin Jun's side, and Xiqigu could occasionally talk to him.

As for everyone else, they are all working hard.

Most of these Qin soldiers came from a poor background. What they ate on weekdays were millet, rice and soup, and they could not taste meat a few times a year. Nowadays, meat and rice are placed in front of the table, and everyone even has a bottle of wine. It is simply a great enjoyment.

They have not been educated in etiquette and behave very rudely. Use chopsticks to dig into the rice, pick up the meaty bone stick without cutting it according to the eating etiquette, stuff it directly into your mouth, bite off a piece of meat, one bite from the left, one bite from the right, the food is all over the floor, and some people even eat the bones. Chew it together and swallow it in your stomach. The sound of slurping can be heard from a long distance away.

This appearance made the local tycoons across the street even more contemptuous. Although the land of Yanzhao produced generous and strong men, for nobles who relied on their status, they still had to follow etiquette in food, clothing, housing and transportation.

"The people of Qin are really a bunch of barbarians, similar to those savages in Liaodong."

Guze used a knife to cut the meat on the plate while complaining in his heart about the barbarity of Qin soldiers. However, he still had a smile on his face, and he kept complimenting "you are really strong men."

Of course, Zhao Tuo issued a military order in advance. You can eat meat, but you can't drink alcohol.

Although the alcohol content of this era is not high, it is still intoxicating if you drink too much.

Guze didn't care about this either, just when the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

Qin Zu's scolding came from outside.

Zhao Tuo was suddenly startled and looked up at the door.

Shejian held a young man's neck in his hands and escorted him in.

The boy was about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing luxurious silk clothes. He cursed "Qin dog" and other things, and twisted his body to try to break away from Shejian's hand.

"What's going on?" Zhao Tuo frowned.

Everyone in the Gu family on the opposite side also exclaimed in surprise, especially Gu Ze who stood up immediately and said in a panic: "A strong man, don't use force. This is an old man and a child. There must be a misunderstanding here."

Shejian said sternly: "This kid just spied on us, and when I found out, he opened his mouth and insulted us."

Although he couldn't understand the Yan dialect, he could tell whether it was insulting from the other person's tone and demeanor.

Zhao Tuo was speechless. It could be seen from the hateful eyes that he was a passionate young man, full of resentment and hatred towards his group of "invaders".

Zhao Tuo signaled She Jian to let go. Such patriotic young men can be found everywhere, so it is not uncommon.

The other party was Guze's son, so it was difficult to pursue his identity.

"You strong men, please calm down. This little boy is naughty and I will teach him a lesson."

Seeing Qin Ren let go, Gu Ze breathed a sigh of relief. He went up and slapped his son twice, scolding: "You are so rude. Isn't this the way my Gu family treats guests? Why don't you apologize quickly?"

"Pooh."

The young man spat and shouted: "Ah, these people are worthy of calling guests? They invaded my country, Yan, Song..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Ze kicked his son to the ground with a fierce kick, and said with a ferocious expression: "How dare Shuzi talk nonsense? Our people are descendants of the Guzhu Kingdom, how can we say that they are Yan people?"

"You have to remember that it was the State of Yan that took over my hometown of Guzhu and made our country disappear. This is the hatred of our ancestors. I wish I could let the State of Yan be destroyed before I could vent my resentment. Now the State of Qin is helping my clan take revenge. It’s too late for us to be grateful, but you dare to spout arrogant words here, get out of here, and don’t disturb the interest of all the heroes here.”

The young man was scolded so badly that he didn't dare to contradict his father-in-law, so he walked out in despair.

Gu Ze was relieved and hurriedly confessed to Zhao Tuo and She Jian.

"This kid is ignorant and bumped into you. Please forgive me. I will apologize on his behalf."

An old man with a gray beard in Guze bowed and confessed to Zhao Tuo and Shejian, two teenagers.

This scene was seen by the young man Gu Xin who had left the house.

The hatred grew stronger.
