Chapter 155: A Feast That Always Comes to an End

Chapter 155 The banquet finally comes to an end

Author: Angry Little Heizi

Chapter 155 The banquet finally comes to an end

“It’s still a little cold!”

We are not straight men, how can we not understand this?

Once I understood this, I felt excited.

Li Xiuzhu embraced Su Ru gently, is it still cold now?

Su Ru shook his head, Li Xiuzhu felt that this was even more stable.

But when he provoked Su Ru's chin, Meng Haoran froze.

Looking at the rain with pear blossoms, he suddenly felt painful.

"What's wrong, don't cry, I feel distressed if you see it like this."

Suru shook her head, but shed tears and said nothing.

Li Xiuzhu was silent and stopped talking, but just hugged her tenderly, patting her back gently.

He understood that she was reluctant to let go, but she also knew that this was wrong, so she cried.

If she insists, she may not refuse, but she will be very sad.

How could I make her sad?

It was night, and the two hugged each other until dawn.

They just cuddled each other and didn't even speak.

After dawn, both Suru and Li Xiuzhu knew it was time to call it a day.

"let's go!"

"Um!"

The two entered the city and the carriage stopped when it approached Su's mansion.

Suru put on the bamboo hat again. Li Xiuzhu watched Suru turn her head three times step by step. After entering Su's house, she finally sighed in despair.

After taking half an hour to collect himself, Li Xiuzhu unloaded the carriage, put on the saddle, and hurried towards Yanmen Pass.

Time has been delayed enough, and he doesn't can't ride horses.

In addition, the army is now heading towards Yanmen Pass, so he really can't waste any time.

With just one man and two horses, he might be able to catch up with the large army before it reaches Yanmen Pass.

Of course, even if we can't catch up, the time difference will not exceed half a day.

Fortunately, he was lucky and it was just after noon the next day.

When the army was still fifty miles away from Yanmen Pass, he rushed back.

"General! Where is your carriage?"

Li Xiuzhu glanced at Li Wuwei and said calmly: "Should I still report my whereabouts to you?"

Li Wuwei was shocked and quickly said: "I'm sorry, sir, it's just a low-ranking official who has overstepped his bounds."

Li Xiuzhu took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, it's not your fault, it's just that I'm in a bad mood right now."

"Let me tell you, before dark, Yanmen Pass will be repaired."

Although he didn't know why Li Xiuzhu was in a bad mood, Li Wuwei guessed that it must have something to do with the woman he rescued two days ago.

But the adults don't allow any discussion about that woman. Naturally, they don't know who she is. They just feel that the woman is a bit shady.

If you save her, you should be willing to give him your life.

You are young, handsome and have a successful career, but I am not worthy of you anymore?

"No, my subordinates will order us to speed up our journey."

Qi Shaoshang and the others also discovered that Li Xiuzhu was back, but they would not come here to make friends with Li Xiuzhu.

At the same time, Suru from the Su Mansion didn't sleep well all night.

The experience of being kidnapped was like a nightmare. When Li Xiuzhu was around, she could sleep peacefully. When she was alone, she was awakened by nightmares several times.

And every time she wakes up, she has that very reliable shoulder.

"Alas, injustice!"

Sighing softly, Suru lay down again, looking at the curtain with dull eyes. Her pupils were dilated and she didn't know what she was thinking. She just smiled sometimes and looked sad sometimes.

She didn't fall asleep until after dawn. Fortunately, she just returned yesterday and no one came to disturb her early in the morning. It was almost noon when the maid woke her up.

On the other side of Shangjing City, several women were also worried about Li Xiuzhu.

Especially Su Chengcheng.

She regretted not seeing Li Xiuzhu. That day, after her mother left, she went to the temple to pray for her mother, so she missed seeing her brother Li Xiuzhu for the last time.

It would be okay if brother Li Xiuzhu could come back, but if brother Li Xiuzhu couldn't come back, it would definitely be difficult for her to forgive herself.

Nong Yue was also feeling very uncomfortable, but she couldn't say anything more to make Su Chengcheng feel even more uncomfortable.

"Sister Nongyue, you said Brother Xiuzhu will definitely come back, right?"

Looking at Su Chengcheng who was looking very haggard these days, Nong Yue sighed and said: "My husband will definitely come back, and you should also eat well. Don't forget that your brother Xiuzhu is back and you will be exhausted."

"If that's really the case, your brother Xiuzhu will definitely feel distressed."

When Su Chengcheng heard this, he looked at Nong Yue and smiled.

"You're still talking about me, but you've also lost a lot of weight."

"Be careful if you are hungry, brother Xiuzhu doesn't want you anymore."

The two girls couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly, and Nong Yue glanced in the direction of Su Mansion.

"Has the Su Mansion still not sent a letter from Brother Xiuzhu?"

Su Chengcheng shook his head when he heard this.

"If there is Yunshuang, it must have been delivered, and they should be anxious."

The army finally arrived at Yanmen Pass as night fell.

Zhu Zhinuo, the general of the Yanmen Pass garrison and deputy envoy, also came to the city gate before the army entered the city.

"Your Majesty, Zhu Zhinuo, has met the General and asked the General to move to his residence, so that your Majesty can take care of the General."

Li Xiuzhu frowned slightly when he heard this.

"Why are you still engaging in these formalities when Jiayuguan is under siege?"

"Just prepare a place and let your men have a full meal."

"Guanfang arranged for the soldiers to bring the captains and Qi Shaoshang to the meeting."

Speaking of this, Li Xiuzhu suddenly thought that he didn't have a place to live.

"General Zhu will arrange a place for me to live in. It must be safe and secure and will not attract spies."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhinuo hurriedly responded.

"General, my residence is very safe. You can just stay here."

This time Li Xiuzhu didn't refuse and just said yes!

Zhu's Mansion was more gorgeous than he thought. It didn't look like a border gate, but more like a wealthy family in the capital.

Li Xiuzhu didn't say much about this, as this matter was not his business.

After the food was served, several generals also arrived, and with them was Zhu Zhinuo.

Li Xiuzhu frowned slightly and said, "Why is General Zhu here?"

Zhu Zhinuo was startled when he heard this.

"Didn't the general order a meeting to discuss countermeasures?"

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu said bluntly: "Aren't the defenders at Yanmen Pass not allowed to move?"

"In this case, then just guard Yanmen Pass and not lose it."

"Okay, General Zhu, go and inspect the city wall."

Zhu Zhinuo's expression froze, and he immediately understood that Li Xiuzhu didn't trust him.

Although he was angry in his heart, he seemed to know that it was normal for him to stand still and arouse Li Xiuzhu's suspicion.

"Yes, I will take my leave."

When Zhu Zhinuo went down, Li Xiuzhu said: "Each person will bring a bowl of food, and we will talk while we eat."

As Li Xiuzhu spoke, he picked up a bowl of meat and came to the sand table.

There were several small flags placed on the sand table. Li Xiuzhu looked at it and said, "Master Qi, you should have passed Yanmen Pass in the past. Is there anything wrong with this sand table?"

After hearing this, Qi Shaoshang looked at the terrain and flags on the sand table and said, "It's roughly the same. It's just that the army representing Silla on the sand table, I don't know if it is like this."

Li Xiuzhu nodded when he heard this and looked at the sand table again.
