Chapter 306 No coincidence

"You three, please go back. My lady won't see any visitors."

"Your lady and I are close friends."

"I'm sorry. My lady has personally ordered that she won't receive any guests in the next few days. The young master should come back in a few days."

Zhang Xiaozu thought he would see Qi Ronger right away, but unexpectedly he was stopped in front of the door by the guard of Qi Mansion, saying that Qi Ronger was not seeing guests.

The army could set off at any time. He didn't have time to wait a few days before coming back. He could only beg shamelessly: "I still need to trouble my brother to make a trip, because we may be leaving Baiyun City soon, so I'm afraid we won't be able to wait a few days. Just go."

Tell the lady that Zhang Xiaopou will come to visit. If the lady still doesn't see you, I will leave immediately."

"You guy?" The guard frowned and was about to get angry at Zhang Xiaopou, but when he saw a banknote of one hundred taels of denomination handed to him from the side, his half-wrinkled brows immediately relaxed and revealed a smile.

"Brothers worked hard, let's use it to buy wine." Zhou Jianlai handed the banknote to the doorman. He knew more about these things than Zhang Xiaozu and Niu Dawa.

The guard looked back and forth to make sure that no one had seen him. He quickly took the banknote from Zhou Jianlai's hand and put it into his arms. He covered his mouth and coughed lightly, pretending that nothing happened, and said: "We have agreed in advance.

I am only responsible for communication, and I cannot guarantee whether the lady will see you or not."

"That's natural." Zhang Xiaozhu nodded and said with a smile, "Brother only needs to say, 'Zhang Xiaozhu is here to visit'."

"Okay. Young masters, please wait a moment." The guard responded, winking at the other three companions, indicating that they should keep an eye on the door, and then turned around and entered the mansion.

After a while, the guard turned back, shook his head at Zhang Xiaozu and the other three, and said, "I disappoint you three young masters. My young lady said I can't see you."

"Ah?" Zhang Xiaozu was quite surprised.

"My lady asked the younger one to bring a message to Mr. Zhang, saying, 'Since our identities are different, it's better not to see him.' She also said, 'Since you are still alive, forget your sorrow and live well.'" the guard said.

Zhang Xiaozu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then smiled bitterly and shook his head. The four words "different identities" made him feel a little sad, but the last sentence made him feel warm. After thinking about it, he raised his hand to the doorman and said thank you: "Thank you!"

After a while, the carriage carrying the three people drove away from the gate of Qi Mansion.

In the small courtyard room, Qi Ronger was lying on the dressing table crying and laughing, her hot tears washing away the heavy makeup she had just applied on her face.

Just hearing Zhang Xiaozhu's name from the doorman, she jumped up from her chair happily and wanted to rush out to see Zhang Xiaozhu immediately, but her step stopped abruptly before she even touched the ground. Her reason overwhelmed her inner impulse.

The thoughts were suppressed all the time.

She didn't dare to see Zhang Xiaopou for fear of harming his life.

Whether it is the cold-blooded Qi Gaozhan or the cruel and cruel Cao Xiong, Zhang Xiaozu cannot compete with him. Once he provokes them, he will die without a burial place. Although she can hide everything from Zhang Xiaozu, it is safe.

For the sake of it, she decided not to see him.

It is enough to know that Zhang Xiaozu is still alive.

"Mom, please touch up my makeup again." After crying and laughing for a long time, Qi Ronger finally stopped her tears and said to her mother beside her.

"good."

Qi Ronger looked at her face in the mirror and murmured to herself: "Smelly monk, I'm sorry, I can't wait until you come back. I don't know if you are okay?"

Through the gap in the paper window, Qi Ronger looked to the south with a sad expression, wondering if there was a bald monk fighting bravely on the battlefield in the south.

Dusk falls and night falls.

A carriage quietly drove out of the Qi Family Courtyard from the back door, shuttled through the dark night, and finally drove into Cao Xiong's General's Mansion.

Twilight Restaurant is a restaurant with a good signature in Baiyun City.

In a private room on the third floor, three military masters wearing battle armor were sitting. Judging from their appearance, they should all be over fifty years old. Looking at the badges on their shoulders, it was clear that they were all general-level officers.

The three of them exchanged cups, chatted and laughed, ate wine and meat, and had a great time.

"Brother Cao, can you tell me a little bit about the situation in the northwest camp? Yancheng has not really been captured, right?" The man with a Chinese character, who was sitting west and facing east, with the rank of major on his shoulder, suddenly asked in a low voice.

A bearded man of the rank of lieutenant general in the due north direction.

"Yes, Brother Cao, let me tell you two brothers. People in the military camp have been in panic all day today, and they all speculate that a big war is going to happen." The round-faced man sitting to the east also lowered his voice and agreed.

Lieutenant General Cao glanced at the two of them, drank the wine in the glass with a smile, smacked his lips, laughed, and said: "Have you two brothers worked too hard recently, and your brains are not working well? Or are you being fooled by the big-toothed dog?

Are you frightened by the war drum? How come you can’t even figure this out?”

"Haha, we have been fighting in succession, and the news is true and false. How can we clearly see the situation? Unlike Brother Cao, you are deeply trusted by the old prince and can know all the details of the military situation at the first time. Brother Cao's military achievements in this campaign

Tired, when the war subsides and rewards are given, the military rank on the elder brother's shoulder will be replaced by a general badge." The man with the Chinese character's face complimented.

"Haha!" Lieutenant General Cao laughed happily, raised his hands to the side and said, "It's all thanks to the love of the old prince that I was promoted."

"Brother Cao, you are too modest." The round-faced man waved his hand and said, "The old prince is so kind in promoting me, that's because you are brave and unparalleled. As soon as you go to the battlefield, you put your head on your waistband and rush to kill. If you are such a tiger general, the old prince can't help you."

Like it?"

"Haha, I like to hear this." Lieutenant General Cao pointed his finger at the badge on his shoulder and said, "I earned my military rank by fighting with real swords and guns. Who dares to disapprove?"

"Yes, yes, no one in Baiyun City knows the reputation of Brother Cao." The man with a Chinese-shaped face nodded hurriedly, picked up the wine bottle and helped Lieutenant General Cao fill the wine, lowered his voice and asked again: "Brother Cao, please reveal a little bit.

, let us two brothers have some confidence in their hearts."

Lieutenant General Cao took a sip from his wine glass and said: "Don't worry, Yancheng is not broken. You two don't even think about it. If Yancheng is broken, can we still sit here drinking and eating meat? But"

"But what?"

"But it's really going to be a big battle."

"How to say?"

"Big-Toothed Dog made a move to attack from the east to the west, pretending to attack our Baiyun City with all his strength, but in fact the main force has already gone to Yancheng, preparing to attack Yancheng with all his strength. The more than 30,000 Yancheng soldiers from the Northwest Camp last night were forced to break through Big-Toothed Dog

The blockade has come to report to us. Let us cooperate with Yancheng and attack Big Tooth Dog from both sides."

"It seems that there will be a fierce battle next." The round-faced man sighed after hearing this.

"Haha, there is no military merit without fierce battles, and there is no glory and wealth without military merit!" Lieutenant General Cao exuded a ruthless air. After speaking, he drank the wine in one gulp, put down the glass and said: "You guys

Brothers, please drink slowly, brother, I won’t accompany you anymore.”

"Why, there are military affairs so late?" the man with the Chinese character asked in surprise.

"Military affairs are a piece of shit, go home and be happy." Lieutenant General Cao cursed, "A fierce battle is coming. Who knows if I can survive. If I don't seize the time, how long will it take to be happy? If you two hadn't invited me out for a drink, I would have been already gone by now.

I'm happy at home."

"Hehe, from the proud tone of my eldest brother, I must be the groom again tonight." The round-faced man suddenly chuckled in a lewd tone, and the other man also chuckled again and again.

"Haha, you two brothers are the ones who know me." Lieutenant General Cao stroked his beard and laughed.

"I wonder whose little lady this time is?

"Hehe" Lieutenant General Cao chuckled, lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious: "This time she is a real lady from a famous family, and she took the initiative to deliver it to her door."

"Whose family is so foresighted? Knowing that our eldest brother is about to be promoted to general, he sent his daughter to his bed in advance in order to take advantage of him."

"The Qi family, Qi Gaozhan, wanted me to set up a connection between him and the old prince, and took the initiative to send the concubine who I had carefully cultivated to my house. At this time, I guess the young lady is already waiting in the room."

"Sacrifice a concubine just to marry the old prince, Qi Gaozhan's idea is too beautiful. Brother, you just agreed?" The round-faced man curled his lips.

"Hey, there's no reason to refuse a woman who comes to your door. As for whether you agree or not, let's talk about it after the game." Lieutenant General Cao said with a sly smile.

"Brother, you are wise!" The two of them gave a thumbs up to Lieutenant General Cao.

Lieutenant General Cao stood up and asked with a smile: "You two, should you continue drinking, or should you go to my house and have fun together?"

When the two heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they pretended to decline: "I'm afraid that the eldest brother will be unhappy."

"It's just a woman, I've never been stingy."

"Then thank you big brother for the gift!"

"Ha ha"

The three of them laughed and left the restaurant. The owner of the restaurant stood at the door of the store and watched the three people leaving on horseback. The complimentary smile on his face slowly solidified, and then turned into a cold and vicious look. He spat hard on the ground.

Shit, because these three people have been eating and drinking at his place for many years, and they have never paid the bill, so he still has to smile and compliment them one after another.

The window of a private room on the second floor suddenly opened, and three figures rushed out of the room one after another, chasing in the direction where the three Lieutenant General Cao left.

"Pawn, do you want to go to Qi's house first to confirm if it's Miss Qi Ronger? If you break into the general's house at night, I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything good."

"No time to confirm."

"Three old beasts who are worse than beasts!"

These three figures are none other than Zhang Xiaozu and the others.

The three of them were drinking and eating meat on the second floor, but Zhang Xiaozhu had a poor appetite and was a little depressed and disappointed not to see Qi Ronger, so the atmosphere at the wine table was a bit dull.

Coincidentally, the three Lieutenant General Cao happened to be sitting in the private room above them. Although the three of them talked quietly from beginning to end, Zhang Xiaozu had a keen ear and overheard their conversation.

Zhang Xiaozhu didn't want to eavesdrop at first, but the initial conversation between the three attracted his attention. When he heard Lieutenant General Cao saying that his military rank was obtained by fighting with real swords and guns, he even felt sorry for Cao in his heart.

The Lieutenant General gave him a thumbs up and praised him for his bravery and might.

Who would have thought that while the three of them were chatting, their style suddenly took a turn for the worse, their inner nastiness was exposed, and their words were unbearable.

When Zhang Xiaozhu heard that Lieutenant General Cao said she was a girl from the Qi family, his heart skipped a beat, fearing that the girl from the Qi family was Qi Ronger. He quickly lowered his voice and briefly described what he heard to Zhou Jianlai and Niu Dawa.

Zhou Jianlai told him that Qi Ronger's father was Qi Gaozhan, and he immediately felt even more uneasy.

After listening to the three people upstairs leaving the table and going downstairs, leaving the restaurant and riding away, Zhang Xiaopou still had the time to discuss countermeasures with Zhou Jianlai and Niu Dawa, and immediately pushed open the window and chased them out. Only to confirm with his own eyes that the woman surnamed Qi was not Qi.

Only with Ronger can he feel at ease.

Although there was cover of night, Zhang Xiaozu and the others were afraid of being discovered, so they did not dare to pursue them too closely and could only follow them from a distance.

Zhou Jian couldn't see clearly what the three of them looked like, but he saw the direction in which the three of them were heading, and he heard from Zhang Xiaozu that one of them was a lieutenant general. He knew Baiyun City very well, and he quickly deduced which lieutenant general in Baiyun City it was.

He immediately lowered his voice and said: "I know who it is, it must be that old pervert Cao Xiong!" (https:)
