Li Qingque sat in the carriage with a flushed face, feeling as if a horse was galloping in her heart.
She secretly looked out from the corner of the window and saw Zhao Xiaole and Xie Junhao walking outside the hospital with smiles on their faces.
"It's so late, where are they going?"
Li Qingque's heart was suddenly filled with curiosity.
Because she saw that the direction the two left was obviously not the direction to the state capital.
She had the intention to follow them and see where they were going, but when she thought that she would inevitably be teased if she was discovered, she gave up the idea.
But I still couldn't help but ask the maid on the side: "Xiao Jin, have you ever heard that the ancients had the 'Three Views': viewing the snow at the city gate, viewing the clouds in the boat, and viewing the beauty under the moon?"
Speaking of the last one, her face couldn't help but turn red again.
But the maid chuckled and said: "Miss, you are familiar with ancient and modern classics. Even the ordinary masters of Juren do not know as much as you. If you don't even know, how can Xiao Jin know?"
"My uncle has outstanding literary talent. When he was in Gaoxian County, he expressed the bitterness of the people with his song "The Charcoal Seller"."
"Maybe! This is what I came up with on the spur of the moment to make you happy, Miss!"
Hearing what she said, Li Qingque suddenly realized.
yes!
Zhao Xiaole's outstanding literary talent has already been spread throughout Chuzhou.
The original song "Charcoal Seller" knocked down even the behemoths like the Huang family.
Now that I think about it, this is indeed true.
It’s just the name Xiao Jin just called...
"Stop talking nonsense, who is your uncle? You are shameless!"
Li Qingque said with a red face.
"Hehe, of course it's Mr. Zhao!"
The maid immediately smiled and said: "Miss, you didn't see it just now. When you and Master Zhao stood together, you and Master Zhao were really a match made in heaven."
"If the young lady's health is not so bad, maybe Master Zhao can take you to ride a horse!"
The maid sighed, but then she realized something was wrong.
Seeing Li Qingque's face suddenly darken, she suddenly turned pale. She fanned her mouth and said, "Miss, I'm sorry. It's all my fault for my bad mouth and my tendency to talk nonsense."
"With Uncle Zhao here, the young lady's illness will definitely get better."
Li Qingque grabbed the maid's hand and fanned him, and shook his head with a wry smile, "I know my body. It is impossible to cure the disease. Zhao Xiaole also said that his method is only to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. He wants to cure the root cause.
, there is simply no such method in this world.”
"I can't blame you, this is my life!"
She raised her head, looked at the place where Zhao Xiaole disappeared, smiled and said: "Maybe it's God who has mercy on me that allows me to meet such an interesting person like you in the little time left!"
"Miss!"
The maid burst into tears, regretting that she shouldn't have said that just now.
Li Qingque smiled nonchalantly and said to the outside of the car: "Uncle Tong, let's go home!"
"yes!"
The carriage started slowly, but Li Qingque looked coldly at the direction where Zhao Xiaole disappeared. In the end, there was only a sigh left in the dark night, "Alas!"
...
dark night.
outside the city.
In the military camp of the Yan army.
It was not yet late at night, and the soldiers patrolling the camp and guarding the gate were already so tired that they fell asleep leaning against the pillars.
Even those who were not asleep had tired faces and curses on their lips.
His words were all about complaining about having to work hard and not having enough to eat.
When Liu Jinming saw it, he sighed heavily and did not blame him.
Turning around, he walked towards the Chinese army's tent.
When he opened the curtain, he saw Zhuge Yan, who was sitting behind the handsome case with a sad look on his face, looking ahead blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Liu Jinming sighed heavily, walked to Zhuge Yan and said: "Grand Governor, our army has been without food for three days now, and the soldiers can only kill horses to satisfy their hunger."
"If things continue like this, once all the war horses are eaten, we won't need Jingguo's soldiers to fight, and we will have to be in disarray ourselves!"
Hearing the sound, Zhuge Yan woke up from his daze, glanced at him, and said blankly: "You think I don't know this truth?"
"In the past few days, I have ordered soldiers to attack Chuzhou City frantically, just to break the city as soon as possible, so as to calm this crisis."
"But those Chuzhou soldiers seemed not to be afraid of death. They clung to their positions and resisted wave after wave of people sent by Pontu."
"Now they don't know where a group of reinforcements came from. How do you expect Pontu to attack?!"
At this point, the anger that had been suppressed in his heart for the past few days suddenly burst out, and Zhuge Yan slapped the handsome case in front of him.
Why wouldn't he be annoyed if he couldn't attack in the past few days?
He even wanted to cut Zhao Xiaole and Xie Junhao into pieces, who had stubbornly resisted him, to vent his hatred, but he had to do it!
Seeing this, Liu Jinming also sighed heavily and suggested: "Since a frontal attack is not possible, why not disintegrate the enemy from within?"
"You mean to incite panic among the people of Chuzhou, or even incite them to rob government property? Ha! You think I didn't think of that?
Zhuge Yan laughed angrily and said, "On the first day we arrived, we already contacted people in the city and started taking action."
"But after so many days, there is still no movement in the city. There is even no news about my people. Don't you know what this means?"
"this......"
Liu Jinming's face suddenly became very ugly.
This means that those people have been discovered and eradicated by Zhao Xiaole long ago.
That means that from now on, they have no other choice but to attack Chuzhou City on the frontal battlefield!
But in the current situation, how can they attack Chuzhou City?
"Can we just wait here to die?"
Liu Jinming's face was pale.
If the current situation continues, they will have no chance of defeating Zhao Xiaole and will have no choice but to wait for death!
At this time, Zhuge Yan's eyes flashed with anger and he said: "Humph, since he won't give us a way to survive, we can only fight to the death!"
"In the battle tomorrow, I will tell these people that the army has run out of food. If we cannot take Chuzhou City, everyone will die."
"When the time comes, I won't believe that this group of people who are on the road to death will not be able to break through this small Chuzhou City!"
After hearing his words, Liu Jinming's face turned blue and white.
Because this method is a double-edged sword. If Chuzhou City cannot be conquered by then, they will really be the ones to die.
Hungry soldiers will eat them alive!
Liu Jinming had some thoughts in his heart and wanted to persuade Zhuge Yan to think again, but at this moment, there was a sudden sound of arrows flying through the air outside the camp.
Zhuge Yan's expression changed, he suddenly stood up from behind the commander's desk, and shouted: "The enemy is attacking!"
