As night fell, in the back garden of the Licheng Prefecture Palace, everything was dark except for the bright Tingyu Tower by the lake and the newly built glazed building with a faint blue light.
The garden after the rain is filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants, combined with the earthy smell, giving it an intoxicating sense of comfort.
Then, a weak light appeared at a small door facing east in the garden, like an insignificant firefly in the night sky, following the winding path in the garden, all the way to the heavily guarded Tingyu Downstairs.
The man was dressed in red leather armor, with golden protective gear on the vital parts of his chest and abdomen. The protective gear was densely covered with magic circles. He was obviously not an ordinary person. He had two golden daggers beside his waist, but he did not carry the iconic sword behind his back. The heavy sword she wore was none other than Luo Siqi, Luo Chuan's maid when she came out of Zhongjing City and now the commander of the Licheng Army.
Siqi held the lamp in one hand and the oil-paper umbrella with the handle closed in the other. She came to Tingyu Tower, opened her arms, and let the palace attendant check her whole body. She just raised her head and looked at the young man on the top floor of Tingyu Tower and the other. She waved, smiling and narrowing her eyes.
Soon, the palace waiter finished the inspection and bowed away. Si Qi took the lamp and climbed onto the stone foundation. He saw the serious-faced Adjutant Mu Zeyan walking out of Tingyu Tower quickly and got out of the way. After crossing the road, he gave a military salute and said, "I have met Mr. Mu."
Mu Zeyan was obviously full of thoughts. When he heard Siqi salute and say hello, he just raised his head and nodded at her before passing by.
Si Qi looked at Mu Zeyan's leaving figure in surprise, turned around and went upstairs, and soon reached the top floor. She handed the lamp and umbrella to Gao Shixian, who came up to him with a smile. After thanking him, she entered the room and saw Luochuan still there. Looking out at the window, I walked over and stood side by side with him. I also looked out. On such a cloudy day, apart from the dark lake surface, there was not much that could be seen, which made people feel particularly depressed. "Master, look. what?"
Luo Chuan sighed and said in a deep tone, "Look at this bloody country."
"What country?" Siqi asked Luo Chuan blankly.
Luo Chuan turned his head and saw Siqi's appearance, and suddenly couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.
Si Qi immediately felt that the Luo Chuan in front of her, who felt a little strange to her, had turned back into the proton in Zhongjing City who would make her give up the way of a maid and deal with him cruelly, so she slapped Luo Chuan in front of her. Chuan's arm said angrily, "What are you laughing at?!"
Luo Chuan felt pain in his arm and took a few breaths of cold air.
When Siqi saw this, he thought he had just slapped his wound, and quickly pulled his arm to check. However, he saw Luo Chuan laughing to himself again, and then he said in a dull voice, "It's really boring. I just came back today. Really? Are you disappointed that you didn’t have a fight with the monsters when you went south this time?”
Luo Chuan stopped laughing and was about to reach out and tap on some of the newly added protective gear that Si Qi was wearing. Hearing this, he paused and said, "How do you know that I didn't fight the monsters when I went south this time? In the wilderness south of Taiming, our Lijun Qingqi fought a battle with a group of big monsters. You don’t know, the battle was so dark..."
"You are bragging," Siqi curled his lips and stretched out a finger to scratch his face, "You are a dignified prefect of Li County, but you are bragging here with me, a small village chief. Don't be ashamed."
Luo Chuan looked at Siqi up and down and said, "Lao Gao told me that you have been running out since your injury has improved recently. I saw the way you walked just now, it is clear that you are not completely agile yet. Where did you go after you left the palace? ?」
"Military Affairs Department!" Siqi raised his chin and said with great pride.
Luo Chuan was really surprised at this time and asked, "You are the commander of Licheng Army, why are you going to the Military Affairs Office?"
Siqi glanced sideways at Luochuan and said, "What's wrong with the commander? Lieutenant Zhao has already said that in a while, when I have more military experience, I can become a hundred generals!"
"Yes, yes," Luo Chuan patted Siqi on the shoulder and said, "So why are you going to the Military Affairs Office?"
Siqi slapped Luo Chuan's hand away, then suddenly noticed a shadow standing silently in the corner. First he tensed up, then patted his chest, nodded to the shadow, and then said to Luo Chuan, " Uncle Jiang told me some time ago that Lieutenant Zhao made a huge sand table in the military affairs office. No matter how busy he was every day, he would spend some time to organize the military affairs office.
The people in the palace gathered there and discussed military affairs. I thought that I would be idle in the palace anyway, so I might as well go there and listen. Zhao Junwei was a very nice person and did not refuse, so he gave me a token. I listened in. "
"Not only did I give you a token," Luo Chuan reached out and tapped the golden protective gear around Siqi's waist, "I also gave you this set of things."
Siqi suddenly touched her cold girdle as if she felt guilty, and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it bad that you just accepted someone's gift without your consent?" She quickly added, "Well, I just put it on today, and it’s still new when I get it back..."
"Since it was given by Lieutenant Zhao, just take it. What else? Is Lieutenant Zhao the one who sent these protective gears?" Luo Chuan smiled nonchalantly, "But if others want to give you something, You need to think about it."
"What are you considering?" Siqi asked.
Luo Chuan tapped Siqi on the forehead with his finger, "Let's consider whether your young master is familiar enough to accept the gift!"
Siqi covered his forehead and lowered his head and said "Oh", but his heart became more and more confused.
Luo Chuan looked at her appearance and said in a much softer tone, "You, didn't I tell you that if you need anything, you can go to the palace's private treasury and take a look. We have what we have at home. You can just use it." It’s not like we don’t even have protective gear that isn’t considered high-quality.”
"The private treasury..." Siqi muttered, "The private treasury is in charge of the palace attendant named Dong. I dare not go there..."
Luo Chuan was speechless for a moment, and then he stopped worrying about this topic and asked, "How is your recovery now? What does the doctor say?"
Siqi raised her head and raised her chin again, "The doctor said that I am already well. I will adjust my breath and meditate every day, and I will be able to return to the battlefield soon." She stared into Luo Chuan's eyes with burning eyes, "You come back and leave the city this time. , How many days can you stay? When you leave, be sure to take me with you!"
This time Luo Chuan turned around and gave Si Qi a sideways glance, "Now that there is peace in all directions in Li County, where can I go? You can rest assured and take good care of yourself in Li County. You can also go to the Military Affairs Office to study military law every day. Maybe you will actually become a female general in the future, thinking about running around every day, what kind of situation can you achieve?" qδ.net
Siqi sighed softly and said, "I saw that people in the Military Affairs Office have started to be busy again recently, and I thought you were leaving again..."
Luo Chuan curled his fingers and struck Siqi hard on the forehead this time, and said fiercely, "Today I will teach you a truth. Although Commander Zhao gave you a sign to allow you to enter the Military Affairs Office, you are in the Military Affairs Office Everything you see and hear inside is a major secret. If you don’t have a lock on your mouth, sooner or later your good man, Lieutenant Zhao, will pull you out and chop off your head!"
Siqi's forehead hurt, and he was about to reach out to fight back. He stopped after hearing Luo Chuan's words. After thinking about it, he nodded heavily, "So you really have to leave..."
Luo Chuan was startled, then smiled, "You, after all, are not the Luo Siqi from Zhongjing City..."
