Lin Ji once served as the captain of the water school of Wu State. Later, he stood on the right side during the Songjing Rebellion and was promoted to the general of Lingdu due to his meritorious service.
Captain Changshui leads the Songjing Suburban Cavalry. He has seen quite a few elite cavalrymen, but he has not seen many teams with such neatly organized war horses.
The twenty-nine knights marched neatly for a few steps, and then the twelve knights on each side separated, turned over and dismounted on both sides, and formed a protocol line. Only the five Qiutong girls came to the car and dismounted, bowed together, and respectfully said hello: " My husband is unable to make the trip, so I am Qiutong, leading my four sisters to greet my two aunts."
Qiutong was born as a servant of the Lu family. Although she is now Lu Wu's wife, she does not have a matchmaker to marry her. It is not in line with the etiquette. Naturally, she should be more respectful to the mistress of the Lu family. However, she claims to be a concubine and combines the Lu Chang family and the Lu Yun family. To be called Agu is to make one's position clear.
"Get up, get up quickly, Qiu Tong, raise your head - well, you better lower your head so that I can take a good look at the wife my fifth son has chosen."
Lu Chang got out of the car and quickly helped Qiu Tong up - Qiu Tong straightened up and Lu Chang reached her chest. The two were so close that naturally only her chin could be seen.
Qiutong is nearly nine feet tall (less than two meters one meter). In this era, the average height of men is only seven feet two three inches (about one meter sixty-five meters), and women are even shorter.
"Good, good. She really has a beautiful face and a body that will bring many children and blessings." Mrs. Lu Chang held Qiu Tong's hand with both hands, looked up at Qiu Tong carefully, and praised.
If you don't count Qiutong's height and shoulder width, which is better than that of an ordinary man, in terms of appearance alone, she is indeed extremely beautiful.
At first, Mrs. Lu Chang doted on Lu Wu more than her own son, so the maids assigned to him were all beautiful women. Moreover, Lu Wu's "Gold Bone, Chalcedony and Iron Cloth Shirt" is no joke, it can allow people to fully develop and show the best side of their bodies.
So Qiu Tong has a good foundation and good development. Now he has become a master of iron cloth and stepped into the realm of golden bones. He has skin like jade, curved eyebrows, a forward and backward figure, and a gentle and approachable smile. It's just too tall.
But this was Wu'er's own choice, and Lu Chang didn't want to go against Lu Wu's wishes on these trivial matters - otherwise she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to step down when the time came.
"Why didn't Wu'er come to greet me? Is it because the military affairs are busy?" Lu Chang asked worriedly, patting Qiu Tong's hand.
In this era, filial piety is still very important. When the mother comes, there is no matter of life and death. If the son does not come to greet the mother, it is unfilial.
"My husband is fighting with the Chu army in Tonghe Mansion. I can't escape for a while, so I have to come to greet my aunt on my husband's behalf." Qiutong's gentle smile almost shocked the guards on both sides.
These people were all experts carefully selected by Lu Wu from the army. In order to protect his wife, he asked her to bring them with him. He himself had no experts around him, so he suddenly remembered the twenty-seven test subjects.
During these days, Qiutong led people to form the Zhechong Division to seek justice for fallen/retired soldiers and fight for their property. He actually killed many people. How could he ever have such a smile on his face?
"The war ahead is so tight?" After hearing this, Lu Chang asked quickly, ignoring Xiao Jiujiu's thoughts.
"Don't worry, Agu. My husband is the most brave in the world. In a few days, he defeated the big city and captured the entire Yuci Prefecture. The Chu State had to stick to the city and did not dare to go out to fight in the field. Now it is just that the people in the newly returned land are undecided. My husband has to sit on the front line." Qiu Tong bent down and gently patted Mr. Lu Chang's back, comforting her.
It's just that when she comes, it's like an adult comforting a child.
"Really? That's good, that's good!" Mr. Lu Chang patted his chest and let out a sigh of relief.
Apart from the Songjing Rebellion, the biggest scene she had seen before was just a bandit robbery. How could she have the chance to hear about such a military and national event? Now Lu Wu is the protagonist. As Lu Wu's mother, she just listens Qiutong's few words also felt thrilling.
"This is not the place to talk. How about you get in the car and come with me to Fucheng to talk?" Qiu Tong asked.
"Okay, okay, okay--" Lu Chang could only say yes in a row, and got into the carriage again in a daze.
Lin Ji, Gou Chen and others also dismounted/dismounted to see the ceremony. After a few words, the team set off again.
Elite soldiers guarded both sides, and pedestrians and merchants could only watch from a few feet away from the roadside. This group of people was the only one on the road slowly marching towards Nanhe City.
"Everyone can punish traitors and traitors - why don't you take action when you have such a good opportunity?"
In the crowd, a man dressed as a farmer, wearing a gray straight suit with two bare legs, asked in a low voice.
The man in question was wearing a silk robe. He just glanced at him coldly and said nothing. He turned his head and stared at the people escorting the convoy.
Instead, another middle-aged man dressed as a businessman next to him answered him.
"What's the use of killing these people? If that person doesn't die and the chaos continues, we only have one chance to take action. How can we use it on others?"
"If you - if you kill that man's parents and wife, can't you also mess with his mind?" The man dressed as a farmer first spoke angrily, then quickly lowered his voice and said.
"Haha, that man's methods are amazing. He is obviously a tycoon. He will take the lives of his parents and wife at heart? If he takes action, it will only be to scare the snake." The middle-aged man dressed as a businessman sneered and explained.
"I know that you have a grudge against Qiu Tong for killing your father, and you are eager to take revenge, but you have to know that the culprit is that person after all, and this woman is just one of his arms.
Do you think Qiutong is easy to kill? Just by looking at the jade-like skin on her face and palms, and how long the weapon is, one can tell that her martial arts has reached its peak. The iron cloth shirt is probably close to returning to its original state. If you want to assassinate this person, you have to use the soul-killing crossbow - -It's a pity that we don't have a second soul-killing crossbow, otherwise killing Zeqiutong would be considered as breaking one of that man's arms. "
"But you can also kill the people in the car, so there is no need to waste the soul-killing crossbow!" the man dressed as a farmer insisted.
After hearing this, the leader in silk satin turned his head and winked - this person was already a hidden danger.
The middle-aged man dressed as a businessman laughed and said loudly: "After watching the fun, everyone still wants to do business, let's go, let's make money for ourselves."
As soon as he finished speaking, a light flashed in the palm of a man dressed as a waiter, and a long needle pierced the ribs of the man dressed as a farmer. Then, the two men dressed as a businessman, one on the left and the other on the right, supported the man dressed as a farmer. The man held his arms and the three of them walked out side by side.
The space vacated by them was filled by more than a dozen people who came around. Centered on the man in silk and satin, dressed as a big businessman, these people formed a faint circle, keeping the civilians watching the excitement away from them.
