"The power of immortality brings great blessings to protect and support the emperor's imperial edict. The Zhou family, the brave general of Luoyan Village in Luming Township, Youzhou, captured the city and pulled out the stronghold. His round formation destroyed the front. His majesty was invincible. He also scouted from a distance. He was able to bind shooting eagles.

He is a ferocious beast, brave and skillful... I give him three catties of gold, one thousand taels of silver, a jade belt, royal wine, deer breasts, and a number of cattle and sheep to support the general. I admire this!"

"I thank your Majesty for your kindness, long live my emperor!"

In the winter of the sixth year of Yan Yongping and the fourth year of Xia Yuanjia, Emperor Murong Xi of the Yan Kingdom finally issued an imperial edict to promote Zhou Fugui to the rank of General Bi, a junior military minister of the ninth rank.

But no matter what, Zhou Fugui went from being a pawn in the Yan army to becoming a low-ranking military official in the Yan Kingdom in two years. This was not a meteoric rise, but he was gradually emerging, especially for a Han Chinese.

It was precisely because Zhou Fugui was a Han that the Yan court rewarded Zhou Fugui with a small official position. If Zhou Fugui had been a Xianbei, the situation would have been very different.

"General, congratulations." After the envoys in the palace announced the decree, Zhou Fugui gave them some money, and they left happily. After the envoys left, Xiaoqing saw Zhou Fugui's happy look, so he smiled and congratulated

road.

General Pi is also General Pi, and of course he can be called "general".

"What are you congratulating me for?" Zhou Fugui heard this and said with a smile: "Congratulations on me becoming this 'fart general'? Xiaoqing, you are so wrong. What Zhou is happy about is that he can finally go home and reunite with his family...

"

In fact, Zhou Fugui was a little happy about this reward from the Yan court. Of course, it was not because of this fart general... Zhou Fugui didn't care about this at all. What Zhou Fugui cared about was the gold and silver that the Yan court rewarded this time.

The goods were abundant, so that Zhou Fugui could give more pension money to his fellow villagers who died in the battle.

Zhou Fugui had been carrying the ashes of Liu Changshun, who sacrificed his life to save Zhou Fugui's life. After Zhou Fugui returned to Luoyan Village, he planned to go to Liu Changshun's home first and hand over Liu Changshun's ashes and pension money to them.

Every time Zhou Fugui thinks about this, his heart becomes extremely heavy.

"Go home? General Zhou..." Xiaoqing said with some embarrassment.

"My name is Brother Fugui." Zhou Fugui interrupted Xiao Qing with a smile.

"Brother Fugui..." Xiaoqing said coyly, "Is it appropriate for me to go to your home...?"

Zhou Fugui returned home in fine clothes and brought back a young girl. Xiaoqing followed Zhou Fugui home like this, with no name or status, which was a bit embarrassing.

"What's inappropriate about this?" Zhou Fugui said with another evil smile, "You are my first-in-law girl."

After Zhou Fugui's hard work, Murong Huiying finally showed mercy and promised to take Xiaoqing with her as a dowry girl when she married Zhou Fugui. After the dowry girl followed her hostess to her husband's house, she basically

The first one will become a concubine, then a concubine, a concubine, a concubine, etc.

Xiao Qing didn't care either. A young palace maid in the former Summer Palace was kidnapped to the north by the Xianbei people. Her fate was extremely miserable. She was lucky to have such a home now.

We must know that many maids in the original Xia Palace were abused by the barbarians, even to death, and many maids also entered Yan's "miscellaneous courtyard", and the so-called "miscellaneous courtyard" was where the Xia female prisoners gathered to do chores

, at the same time, he had to serve Xianbei and other barbarians, and was subjected to sexual humiliation by Xianbei and other barbarians, which was comparable to, or even worse than, a brothel.

This is not only the case for palace maids, but also for some concubines and princesses in the former summer palace.

Xiao Qing is also happy to be able to become Zhou Fugui's maid or concubine. The reason is that after such a long time, Xiao Qing has already known Zhou Fugui and knows that he is a kind-hearted person and a compassionate and righteous person.

Those who abuse themselves will never allow others to abuse themselves.

The key is that Brother Fugui is still so heroic... Xiaoqing thought shyly.

Murong Huiying is a good person who will do her best. When she was not in Youzhou, she ordered Xiaoqing to serve Zhou Fugui.

"Not only Xiaoqing will go home with me, but our little Yunu will also go home." Zhou Fugui then picked up the little Yunu and said with a smile.

"Big brother, um... Yu Nu also wants to be the maidservant to serve the big brother." Little Yu Nu sat in Zhou Fugui's arms, biting her fingers and said in a sweet voice.

"Pfft!" Xiaoqing couldn't help laughing when she heard this.

"I...you...what are you talking about? Little girl, do you know what a wench girl is?" Hearing this, Zhou Fugui was so panicked that he handed the little jade slave to Xiaoqing, and said with a slight blush on his face.

"Hehe, Yunu, if you don't want to be a girl, you will marry a good family when you grow up." Xiao Qing hugged the little Yunu and said with a smile: "Unlike my sister, I had no choice but to become this beast... the beast

The girl."

Xiao Qing had a rare joke with Zhou Fugui and glanced at Zhou Fugui with watery eyes.

"What? You said I'm a beast?" Zhou Fugui said with a dark face when he heard this: "I didn't do anything to you, but now you become a beast? You have to be conscientious when you speak."

In the past two years, Zhou Fugui could hardly bear it several times, but in the end he was unwilling to hurt Xiao Qing.

"Hehe..." Xiaoqing knew that Zhou Fugui was not angry, so he said with a smile: "I heard them say that Brother Fugui looked like a wild beast on the battlefield."

"That was on the battlefield!" Zhou Fugui then said angrily: "Well, since you said so, I will definitely deal with you when I get home. By then, I will really turn into a beast... Hehe

!”

This beauty "seduced" Zhou Fugui one after another. Zhou Fugui was almost going crazy holding it in. If he held it in any longer, it would cause problems. Xiaoqing had become Zhou Fugui's person, so Zhou Fugui didn't want to endure it anymore.

"Brother Fugui, don't say this in front of Xiaoyu Slave..." Xiaoqing said with a blush on his face after hearing this.

"Oh, oh, yes, yes, Xiaoqing, Yunu, hurry up and get in the car, the troops will be sent home in Yancun!" Zhou Fugui scratched his head in embarrassment and said after hearing this.

Zhou Fugui hired a carriage, and Xiao Qing carried Little Yunu into the carriage. Zhou Fugui looked at the belongings in the carriage, sorted out his clothes, put his bow and arrow on his back, stepped on his saber, got on his horse, and the four of them walked out.

Youzhou City is heading towards Luoyan Village in Luming Township.

"The geese are flying south, the geese are flying south, the geese are screaming, my heart is broken, I don't wait for today to go, I'm already looking forward to spring's return, I'm already looking forward to spring's return, I'm leaving today, I'm hoping for spring's return, I'm looking forward to its return, don't break your heart, don't

Crush your heart into pieces and wait for spring to come back!"

After a group of four people left Youzhou City, Zhou Fugui felt greatly relieved and sang loudly.

"Brother Fugui, what's this song for? It's so nice." Xiao Qing opened the carriage curtain and said with a smile.

"Homecoming is like an arrow!" Zhou Fugui replied with a smile.

"Homecoming is like an arrow?" Xiaoqing heard the words and memorized the song silently.

.....................

"Xiaoqing, how does the scenery of my hometown compare with yours?"

When approaching Luoyan Village, Zhou Fugui and four other people came to an elm forest. In front of the elm forest was a grassland dotted with sparse white snow. There was a small bridge in front of the grassland. The bridge was famous and was called "Five-hole Bridge".

", under the five-hole bridge, the small river is gurgling, and there is a thin layer of ice on the river surface.

"Brother Fugui, Xiaoqing hasn't been back for a long time." Xiaoqing said with a smile.

"Oh, haha, the small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River are nothing more than that." Zhou Fugui nodded, pointed at Yulin with his riding whip and said with a smile.

Xiaoqing pursed her lips and smiled, remaining silent.

Although Xiaoqing has not returned to her hometown for a long time, the scenery of her hometown in her memory is much more beautiful than here. How can the beauty of the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River be compared to that of Youzhou?

"Push!"

At this time, some skylarks suddenly appeared in the elm forest. The skylarks rose into the sky and flew in all directions in panic.

"stop!"

Seeing this, Zhou Fugui ordered the driver to stop and the carriage stopped on the five-hole bridge.

The driver named Zhang and Xiaoqing looked at Zhou Fugui in surprise.

If the birds are frightened in the forest, something must have happened, either to a person or an animal, to cause the skylark to be so frightened.

When Zhou Fugui thought of this, he ignored the surprised looks of the driver and Xiao Qing, took out his clairvoyant eye from his arms, put it in front of his eyes, and carefully observed the elm forest.

"Brother Zhang, Xiaoqing, please go back quickly. There is a road five miles to the south, and about seven miles to the west, you can reach Luoyan Village." After a while, Zhou Fugui put down his clairvoyance and said to the driver and Xiaoqing.

"Brother Fugui, what happened?" Xiaoqing asked in surprise when he heard this.

"Don't ask, just leave!" Zhou Fugui glared at Xiaoqing and said anxiously, "You go first, I'll be there soon."

Upon hearing this, the driver surnamed Zhang quickly drove the carriage back to the west of the bridge, and then drove the carriage south.

"Brother Fugui, be careful!" Xiao Qing poked her head out of the carriage and said to Zhou Fugui extremely worriedly.

Zhou Fugui nodded, slowly took off the Moon-Chasing Bow from his back, sat on his horse, stood at the head of the bridge, and silently stared at the Yulin.

There were people in the forest, and there were quite a few of them. They thought they were well hidden, but Zhou Fugui saw them with his clairvoyance.

Zhou Fugui didn't know who they were, but they must be up to no good in hiding in the Yulin.

Could it be that the thieves cut off the road here for the sake of the property in the car? Zhou Fugui secretly guessed in his heart.

Zhou Fugui stood on horseback at the head of the bridge, blocking the only road across the river nearby, buying time for Xiaoqing and others.

The north wind whistled, making the elm trees roar, and Zhou Fugui's clothes kept fluttering. Zhou Fugui stared at the elm forest intently, but apart from the sound of the wind, there was no other movement in the elm forest.

"What kind of hero are those who hide in the woods? Why don't you show your true face and let Zhou learn a lesson?" After a while, Zhou Fugui held up the Moon Chasing Bow, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly.

Zhou Fugui stopped shouting, and finally there was movement in the Yulin. Some men in black appeared from the forest. They were so dark that there were more than a hundred people in total.
