Zhi Bai told Zhou Gu in detail that he discovered that the Nangong family was causing trouble and destroying the granary. They felt that these people could not be allowed to cause trouble. If the granary was destroyed, it would be a big harm to Nanchu, so he He led his men to suppress those people.
Those people were all masters. Fortunately, he led thousands of people and won at the hands of others, but it only wasted a lot of effort and wasted time. He thought he helped the Fourth Young Master, but he didn't expect that he arrived a step too late. The princess was almost killed.
After arriving today, he felt extremely regretful after hearing about the dangerous events yesterday.
Zhou Gu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "Well done. These people burned down the granaries, which also harmed Southern Chu. Now that the Wei Dynasty is invading, the supply in the rear of Southern Chu must not be cut off. Once it is cut off, it will be a big disaster." You did nothing wrong."
He said rejoicing, "Su Rong probably has some good luck. Yesterday, if the two cousins and others arrived just a moment late, they would be dead. This must be the fate of dragons and phoenixes as the old saying goes."
Zhibai looked at Zhou Gu, "Thanks to the Cui family of Qinghe, Mr. Cui is wise."
Zhou Gu nodded.
Zhibai added: "I heard that the princess left herself on the battlefield yesterday in order to save you..."
Zhou Gu nodded again, "So I was very angry and ignored him all night."
Su Rong was unconscious, and he couldn't get angry when he was angry. Wasn't he just angry all night? I can't ignore her.
Zhi Bai said: "My subordinates and others will follow you, Fourth Young Master, and swear allegiance to the princess to the death."
Zhou Gu smiled, "Okay."
The two talked for a while, Lanzhi brought the food, and Zhibai and Zhou Gu ate together. After the meal, Zhou Gu asked Zhibai to rest. When he heard that Ye Guixue had woken up, Zhou Gu got up and went to visit Ye Guixue. Snow.
Ye Guixue was in a coma for a whole day and night. Not long after he woke up, he took Zhou Gu away to protect him. The injury was so serious that he couldn't get up, so he was fed and given medicine.
Before finishing the bowl of medicine, Zhou Gu came.
He entered the house, looked at Ye Guixue, and said angrily, "This is the price you paid for forcibly protecting me and taking me away. Otherwise, why would you be so seriously injured?"
Almost lost his life.
"The princess's order must not be violated." Ye Guixue twitched the corners of her lips and smiled.
Consultant Zhou said to him, "Brother Gui Xue has been so kind to you for saving your life. I can't repay you for it. How can I feed you medicine?"
Ye Guixue shook her head quickly, "No, no, no."
Zhou Gu didn't care, took the medicine from a guard and fed Ye Guixue himself.
Ye Guixue had no choice but to say, "Brother Zhou Gu, please don't shorten my life. I can't afford for you to feed me medicine yourself."
"No, at this critical moment, Brother Gui Xue clearly felt that the most important thing to do was to protect the princess and leave. She is the future king of Nan Chu and the hope of Nan Chu. However, you did not hesitate to obey her orders and protect me with all your strength. Although I am very unhappy, and I almost drew my sword against you in anger, but I have to admit that you only obey her orders and are a qualified subordinate. It is no wonder that she has promised you a long time ago to serve as an auxiliary minister." Zhou Gu scooped up a spoonful of medicine and brought it to Ye Guixue's mouth, "Brother Guixue, don't let me get tired from carrying it, drink it!"
Ye Guixue really couldn't drink it, "Brother Zhou, let's replace it with someone else!"
Zhou Gu looked at him, "Brothers, why are you so polite? Brother Guixue doesn't drink. You suffered such a serious injury because of me, which makes me feel bad."
Ye Guixue had no choice but to open his mouth. For a while, Zhou Gu fed him the medicine, and he couldn't even feel the bitter taste. He really wanted to drink it up quickly. However, Zhou Gu fed her slowly and did not spill any of it. It took him a long time to finish half a bowl of medicine.
Ye Guixue was sweating faintly on her forehead. Zhou Gu handed the empty bowl to the person aside and smiled at Ye Guixue, "Brother Guixue, it's not that, you are just too humble. I used to look at you, To be honest, I always feel uncomfortable in my heart. You know, because of Su Rong, everyone has knots in their hearts. Now, after experiencing life and death several times, I want to be your brother, so you can tell me whether you want to be friends with me or not. ?”
Ye Guixue laughed and said, "It's okay for me to call you Brother Zhou now. Once the Wei army retreats and the princess returns to the capital, the king canonize the throne of the queen and the queen, and canonize brother Zhou and the queen's wife. This is to follow the way of a monarch and his ministers. Zhou and I will It is not etiquette for a brother to call him brother again."
"Privately." Zhou Gu said, "Unless you, Brother Guixue, look down on me."
Ye Guixue immediately shook her head and said, "How dare I not look down on you? I really like you so much. I have heard that two young masters from the Cui family in Qinghe came with nearly two thousand people." I took refuge in you, and I heard that the Protectorate's Mansion also sent thousands of secret guards. These people's arrival at this juncture was so timely, giving them a great chance of winning and holding on to Heiya Pass, waiting for Daliang's 200,000 reinforcements to arrive.
Under Zhou Gu's eyes, he smiled and agreed happily, "Okay, privately, I will also make brother Zhou a brother."
Zhou Gu grinned, "Okay, you can rest and recuperate! You just woke up and it's not appropriate to work too hard. You don't have to worry about defending the city. Zhang Yun and my two cousins are here."
Ye Guixue said: "I've also heard that the Guisha Sect's mechanism is of great benefit when used to defend the city. It's really thanks to them."
Zhou Gu nodded, "Well, that's right, so just rest and be at ease."
Ye Guixue nodded, "Okay."
Zhou Gu left Ye Guixue's room and went to see Fengling, Ziye, and Jiang Zhu. The three of them were still awake. He took a look and then went to see Xie Yuan.
Xie Yuan saw him coming and frowned, "Why don't you just take a good rest and wander around? Do you think your injury is minor?"
Zhou Gu was scolded obediently and sat down to explain, "After sleeping all day, I couldn't fall asleep again. I heard that Brother Guixue woke up, so I came over to see him. I also wanted to see you, Uncle Xie."
"I don't need you to look."
Zhou Gu immediately changed his words: "I came to discuss the war with you. The Wei Dynasty attacked for an hour today and then withdrew its troops. It must be back to discuss countermeasures. There will be a fierce attack on the city tomorrow, and there will definitely be a fierce battle tomorrow. I can't take it. Yes, four of Wei's siege cannons were destroyed by us, and two were destroyed by themselves. Will those four siege cannons be repaired in a short period of time and used on the battlefield again?"
Xie Yuan's face brightened when he heard what he said, "You are right to worry, but when you were fighting outside the city, I used a telescope to observe Wei's siege artillery. The construction was quite complicated, and you destroyed it in the first place. At that time, although the damage was not complete, if it wanted to be repaired, the Wei Dynasty would need time to forge again, and it would not be repaired in a short period of time. We should be worried, and we are also worried that in the future, the Wei Dynasty will still use siege cannons to affect the battlefield ."
Zhou Gu nodded, "My second brother and third brother's troops will arrive in ten days at the earliest. As long as we survive these ten days..." He looked at Xie Yuan, "Uncle Xie, you said, in ten days, we How about a counterattack? The Wei Dynasty sent troops to attack the border town of Daliang. My grandfather has already gone there in person. Based on my understanding of my grandfather, he might attack while the Wei Dynasty is empty. In that case, the Queen of the Wei Dynasty will need to send a message urgently. Let Yuan Zhao withdraw his troops? What if we do the opposite and prevent Wei from withdrawing?"
Xie Yuan looked at him, "That's true, but is Nanchu's food and grass enough?"
