Liu Zhaofeng drove straight into, Lien Chan. Defeated the unsuspecting Zheng army several times. At the same time, they clearly proposed the purpose of sending troops: "kill the traitor, and return to the government." So much so much that the generals were looking at the wind. In just one week, Liu Zhao seized the whole place of Youzhou. The army is approaching the gateway to North China: Xiaobeicheng.
Zhang Qingmeng learned of the news and was furious. He didn't dare to imagine that Zheng Jun could not do so, which also forced him to start thinking about the reform of the army.
But the most important thing at the moment is still this sudden drill. So he summoned a group of staff early the next morning to discuss the war.
Gao Chou took the lead in speaking: "According to the front line to explore the Ma Lai, my 170,000 main force and the rebel pioneer Wei Su fought several times. In less than three days, we will arrive at Xiaobeicheng..."
Everyone's face covered a layer of gray, with a dignified expression.
"Who is the former military commander? What a coward of his grandmother!" Nihao banged the table angrily and stood up: "Mengzi, just let us go. Let me beat that cavalry to pieces!"
Duan Chongwen replied: "Our army has changed three generals, not the opponent of Liu Zhao. The situation is serious. If so, the North China portal will be poured into the Central Plains. JAC's soldiers to support first. "
Yu Jitao gently shook his osmanthus folding fan: "Hua Haoshang and Liu Si are fighting fiercely in the south. Even so, we have to guard against it. The soldiers defending Jianghuai must not move without permission. The most important thing right now is who can be sent as the main general to resist the strong momentum. Rebel army. "
"Military division! Let us go, we are not afraid of death!" Ni Hao patted his breasts to guarantee.
"Nawei is resourceful, and the appointment and removal of the Lord should think about it again and again, and do not depend on it lightly." Chen Yan arched.
As Zhang Qingmeng thought hard and meditated, he suddenly realized that many people were missing one person. Yu Jitao felt his doubts, and soon noticed the empty position.
"Why can't General Lou Ning today?" Zhang Qingmeng's eyes flashed with a little puzzlement.
Everyone looked at each other and did not know the reason. Still Guan Lang got up and answered: "Back to the king, General Lou's body hugs, so it is postponed."
"What is the disease of General Lou? Why didn't the king know?"
"Last night, General Lou felt cold, and the incident suddenly heard that the end was when he came."
A piece of autumn leaves blew into the house and slowly fell on the vacant seat. Zhang Qingmeng stared at the leaves, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Or maybe Yu Jitao sensed his intention and asked tentatively in his ear: "Could it be that the king already has someone in mind?"
"What does the military division think?" Zhang Qingmeng smiled proudly.
"The king has always been so bold ..." The two laughed inexplicably. Many staff members were puzzled by this situation and discussed in a low voice.
Ni Hao couldn't hold it anymore and asked anxiously: "What are you laughing at? Is there already a candidate for the coach?"
"It's exactly!" Zhang Qingmeng nodded.
"I don't know who the king is willing?" Gao Chou asked.
Everyone turned their ears and listened attentively to the answer that was about to be announced. Zhang Qingmeng cleared his throat, his expression was firm: "The king decided to get the nursing army Lou Ning as the former army general!"
"ah??????"
The crowd made a shocking question, and the autumn leaves in the empty position had long been quietly dissipated in the wind.
But at this moment, where is our General Lou? He was wearing a light blue cloth, walking around Suzaku Avenue, and was intoxicated to enjoy the prosperity of the capital.
Even in the early morning, if you look around, there are countless sedans and carriages dotting the streets. Fairview satin is extremely luxurious and bright. The streets of all kinds of shops stand on the streets, laughter and laughter, vibrant and lively.
"It's really the best material, Sir, this is a fine product brought back from Shu by the Chamber of Commerce. It looks good on you!" The proprietress of the brocade shop grabbed Lou Ning and started to sell it.
Lou Ning said: "You look at me, short and dark, you must not make people laugh to death?"
"Where is this? Today I tell the truth to the truth. I have opened this brocade shop for more than 40 years, which can be regarded as reading countless people. Just by this, I dare to say that I have never seen it before It is better than your Peugeot, then Shu Jin is simply doing it for you. You are angry, and then put on this body, alas! "
Lou Ning burst out laughing at what he said, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond. The boss said that he had to take out his clothes and come forward to try it. But he immediately stopped him: "I have a total of fifty coins on me. If you dare to look at it, don't you dare to buy it."
"You are really humorous. Whoever does not know that this bustling place in Beijing is a cat and dog, let alone eat meat, let alone people like you? , let’s meet up, it’s not too late to come back in the future!”
"Oh, then I'm not as respectful as you go!" Lou Ning took the red magpie, tied to his waist, and greeted and walked away.
Where is he going? He didn't know himself, but today he was more interested and just wanted to disperse. At this time, his wife Wang Li was asleep, and she just found a greedy.
Although I always feel uncomfortable, it is the kind of uncomfortable being stared at. But he didn't care. There were many people in the capital, and more than one person was looking at him.
While walking, he looked at people with different shapes. Monk who murmured, ranges from the top of his head, Mr. fortune teller with crutches, and different states with yellow hair and blue eyes. This is really dazzling and countless.
"Baozi -New steamed bun —— — 菜“ ““ One meat buns, five texts, one 唉- "
These words were like a magical spell, instantly making Lou Ning's stomach beat. After the sound, I walked over. Without waiting in, the aroma emitted from the steam had drilled into the nostril: "Grays, come here two meat buns!"
"Okay, wait a little!" The guy opened the steamed drawer, clamped the bun, and chatted: "I don't know what the adults do?"
Without even thinking about it, Lou Ning opened his mouth and answered: "It's almost the same as you. They're all the same."
"Oh, it's coincidental, the adults also cook?"
"Haha, I eat."
That guy couldn't help laughing, and the buns almost didn't stabilize: "Adults can really laugh, then I will be the" assistant 'of adults today. "
Lou Ning took the hot bun and rolled it in his hands. He took a bite and the fragrant soup burst out in his mouth. He instantly became energetic. So I took out twenty or more, and I bought four more, holding the oil -filled bags full of hot buns in my arms, just like a heating burner with you, just to resist the autumn wind and kill.
After a while, he came to an open-air restaurant and ordered a duck blood soup. He then found a seat and sat down, boredly listening to the gossip around him.
"I heard that the Liaodong people are tall and strong. No wonder it is going to enter Xiaobei in a week. It is really scary!" A wine guest chatted with a friend.
"I don't know how the generals on the front line fought. There have been three replacements. Which one is not beaten to the point of running away? Look, this capital is probably going to undergo major changes again." The friend responded in a low voice.
Lou Ning listened with great interest. After the duck blood soup was brought over, he drank and listened carefully. But after a few words of the two, they changed the topic, and the duck blood soup of this made has no umami smell ...
He ate another bun, and the remaining four decided to take home for breakfast. After paying the money, I left happily.
On the way home, Lou Ning had a storm of thoughts in his mind: "How should we deal with Si'er? First of all, Si'er will definitely scold: 'Which woman did you fool around with again?' At this time, it's okay to take out the buns to show your courtesy. Buns It is delicious, Si'er will definitely say: 'Sobee, so delicious, spend a lot of money?' I will answer: 'The emperor still wants to laugh, let alone I am a martial arts?
Inadvertently, he ran straight into the earth wall. What was even more embarrassing was that the already unstable earth wall collapsed, attracting the attention of many people.
"Who built a soil wall on Suzaku Avenue?" Lou Ning led a lot of ridicule and kept touching his head.
"Ghost, you are a Suzaku Street! This is the same Nanyu, behind the earth wall is a latrine!" A lucky toilet man came out of the dumplings and shouted, "Almost kill Lao Tzu!"
At this moment, the crowd watching the excitement all laughed, and this funny scene also added a lot of fun to the capital. Lou Ning also apologized and apologized.
But he was unusually optimistic and smiled at the onlookers: "This is really: 'Don't look back until you hit the wall'!" This caused everyone to burst into laughter, even the dusty man. I couldn't help laughing.
Now he didn't dare to think too much and walked straight towards home. Although he was the only one on the road, he still felt like he was being followed.
The entire Lou Mansion was deserted, with only a few servants yawning and sweeping fallen leaves. Lou Ning went into the courtyard and asked his family: "Can guests visit today?"
"Master, who can come this early in the morning?" the servant said in a very lazy tone.
Lou Ning thought to himself, even if there were usually not many people coming. This suits his heart. He would rather be a common man who has nothing to do with the world than form a clique for personal gain and be suspected by others.
Carrying the buns into the room, I saw Wang Li combing his hair very carefully in front of the mirror. This was a strange thing. According to her past habits, she just did it a few times impatiently. Lou Ning was keenly aware that today's wife is very strange.
"Oh, are you back?" Wang Yan's voice was very lazy.
"Take some buns casually, try it." Lou Ning turned towards the table, but was surprised to find that the table was covered with rich dishes and a pot of wine.
This made him unbelievable. After all these years of marriage, Wang Li had always prohibited him from drinking. All kinds of abnormal moves make his heart be nervous.
Suddenly, he felt a weight on his shoulders. It was Wang Li who pressed on top and whispered in his ear: "Eat quickly..."
Lou Ning was stunned. Could this be a monster? Impossible, this is definitely not the lady he knows! He sat down nervously, not daring to look directly. She gently sat opposite him, her eyes changed from their usual sharpness to the gentleness of an ordinary woman.
Lou Ning became even more embarrassed: "Ma'am, are you feeling unwell...?" She thought for a moment and nodded in reply. Lou Ning noticed that her eyes were full of expectations and mixed with a little uneasy.
"What's wrong? Why is Si'er speaking so coyly today? It's so different from before." Lou Ning had never seen her look like this before, as if she was another person.
Wang Yan lowered his head and took a little girl's coquettishness. I want to say something, but the words are turning over and over in my heart, but I just can't say them out.
"Haha, my fourth son is a woman after all." Lou Ning looked at her with interest, not caring what she wanted to say. He guessed that she must be interceding on behalf of his brother.
But when Lou Ning thought about her strategy, she suddenly said: "Yes ..."
"Ah?" Lou Ning was immersed in his own thoughts and didn't even hear clearly.
Seeing this situation, she took a few deep breaths and repeated again: "I have it..."
Lou Ning felt confused and asked strangely: "What do you have? Don't tell me that the king has made you an official."
"That's not it!" Wang Li was a little angry: "If you have it, you have it! You rotten wooden head!"
Lou Ning felt more comfortable after being scolded. This at least proved that Madam was still normal, but there might be some things that were difficult to say out loud.
Seeing that Lou Ning still couldn't figure it out, Wang Li shouted anxiously: "I think you were born to be a cucumber - you are so stupid! I blindly followed a stupid man like you, and even had a child..." He just said "child" "When he said the word, Wang Li hurriedly stopped and lowered his head shyly.
"You're talking about a child..." Lou Ning was stunned for a moment, and then there was emotion in his eyes. He shook his head in disbelief, stood up hastily, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble: "Is this true? I'm not here Dreaming?"
"real."
At the age of forty-three, he never dared to think about children. He originally planned to stay until he was successful and famous, and the old couple would live in seclusion in the mountains. The incense might be cut off at this point. But what happened today once again ignited the hope in his heart.
He jumped around like a child, howled at the top of his lungs, and ran out the door with a crazy smile: "My Lou family is having a baby!!! Hahahahahaha!!!" Even if he fell and chewed the mud, he was still the same. Dance like crazy. This frightened the servants. They thought that the master had been completely driven crazy by his wife, so they hurriedly went up to comfort him.
Lou Ning smiled and then began to cry. After crying for a while, he laughed again. The servants quickly entered the room and asked Wang Li to come out to take charge of the situation. She raised her hand and slapped him, causing him to fall to the ground instantly.
"You useless old man! You want to be a bastard and jump into the river!" Wang Li angrily pulled his hair.
"Hahaha, madam, how long has it been?"
"It's only been three months..."
"Go back to the house and rest quickly, don't hurt Madam."
"I think you are afraid of hurting the child! Let me declare in advance that I may give birth to a girl, but I will never give birth to you again!"
"A girl can do it, a girl can do it too hahahahaha..."
Lou Ning was excited to return to the house to write an invitation post. He decided to invite guests and friends to go to the house to make trouble and host a banquet for this unborn child. Wang Li came closer and said, "Don't you know how much money your family has? How much does it cost to treat a guest?"
"As long as my man takes care of the money, you can be responsible for raising the baby with peace of mind."
Wang Li laughed and scolded: "Hey! Look at you, you little bastard. I didn't realize that the shell is quite hard!"
Just as the couple was planning who to send the invitation to, someone suddenly broke in and the servant was about to stop them. Unexpectedly, the man showed his Long Yun Department token and shouted: "Is General Lou in the house?"
Lou Ning heard the voice and came out with Wang Yan to ask about the situation. The man opened his mouth and replied: "Go back to General Lou. On the order of King Zheng, please come to the palace immediately."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Lou Ning frowned.
"The villain doesn't know." The man's voice was extremely cold.
"Mr. Fanlao told King Zheng that Lou Ning was suffering from cold and could not participate in important discussions."
"I see that the general is having a lot of fun on Zhuque Street." The man smiled coldly, with a fierce light in his eyes.
Lou Ning's body was shaken, and then he realized that someone was following him all the way, and he was so scared that he couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine. But that person didn't seem to care about pursuing the responsibility, and just urged him. Lou Ning didn't even have time to change her clothes, so she hurriedly followed the man to the palace.
With such an urgent summons, the clever Lou Ning had already guessed some of its meaning. But is it really as he imagined? He wasn't sure, so he quickened his pace to further verify his idea.
