Chapter 268 One thought of hell, one thought of heaven
The first ray of sunlight in the morning passed through the gap in the tent door and shone on Xia Houhui's face. Xia Houhui lazily turned over and raised his arms to block the bright and dazzling sunlight. The cold air in the morning irritated her.
With a shiver, I suddenly woke up a little, and at the same time I felt that broad and strong chest.
Everything from last night seemed to come flooding back. Xia Houhui suddenly woke up and sat up subconsciously. The cold air penetrated her skin and aroused a layer of goosebumps. She looked down at her chest, which still had kiss marks.
, and suddenly felt a little confused.
Wei Ba woke up, opened his eyes, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and reached out to pull her: "Why do you get up so early?"
Xia Houhui was stunned for a moment, and then said quickly: "It's dawn, I... I should get up, sweep, and serve my husband." As he said this, he pushed Wei Ba's arm away, pulled off a piece of clothing, and draped it over his naked body.
on the shoulders.
"You sleep a little longer and I'll get up by myself. I have to practice boxing anyway." Wei Ba pulled her and yawned while sitting up. He pushed Xia Houhui back into the quilt and tucked the corners of the quilt for her.
He got out of bed naked, stretched out a lot, twisted his neck, and shook his waist, making a rattling sound in his joints.
Xia Houhui huddled under the quilt, looking at Wei Ba's masculine body, and suddenly felt suffocated. Wei Ba usually wore clothes and always showed a kind and almost humble smile. Who would have thought that he had such a strong body?
The body. Every muscle rolling under the smooth skin contains powerful power and is full of beauty.
This is a man's body? This is a man's body.
Xia Houhui shrank back into the quilt shyly, but couldn't help but peek in the gap. In her memory, the men of the Wei Dynasty used to be like this, but after Emperor Wen ascended the throne, Mu Tongda, the literate spirit, and scribes began to become popular.
Taste the incense
, with high crowns and bamboo clogs, wide clothes and wide sleeves, flaunting elegance. Such men full of raw power and beauty are rarely sought after by others. Most of those with strong bodies are warriors. They are collectively ostracized by the scribes because they are vulgar and illiterate.
Her father Xia Houshang was looked down upon by others, part of the reason was because he had been a warrior since he was a child and had a body that was completely different from the scribes. When she was a child, she loved the feeling of being held in her father's arms the most.
A feeling of safety. It's a pity that her father never held her again after she was ten years old.
Oops, what am I thinking? Xia Houhui suddenly realized that her thoughts were a little messy and a little improper. She screamed secretly and hid herself under the quilt. In the panic, she not only failed to fulfill her obligation as a concubine, she got up.
Dressing Wei Ba, I didn't even know when Wei Ba went out. In a daze, I only heard Wei Ba order from outside: "Don't make any noise, let Miss Xiahou sleep a little longer."
That sound made Xia Houhui feel warm in her heart, her nose felt a little sour, and she felt a little dizzy, as if she were in the clouds. Until the bell pulled her back from the sky.
"Girl, it's time to get up."
Xia Houhui pulled back the corner of the quilt, and the corners of Lingdang's mouth appeared in front of her. There was both pity and complaint in her big, round eyes. Xia Houhui avoided Lingdang's complicated gaze and saw the tent at a glance.
There was a bright light outside, and then I heard a faint shout in the distance, and I woke up: "What time is it?"
"It's the end of the hour." Lingdang took the clothes angrily and placed them on the couch one by one, muttering in his mouth. "Girl, do you still remember what you came to do? Now sacrifice your body.
But he forgot his original mission. This is not a good thing. He failed to steal the chicken, but lost a lot of rice..."
"What are you talking about?" Xia Houhui retorted with a blushing face: "I really became his concubine, so it will be convenient in the future."
"Do you really think so?" Lingdang suddenly turned her head and stared at Xia Houhui. Before Xia Houhui could speak, she said again: "Why didn't you take the information when he put it under the pillow yesterday?"
"Under the pillow?" Xia Houhui suddenly woke up: "You...how do you know I didn't take it?"
"Well, isn't this it?" Lingdang helped Xia Houhui up, took out a piece of paper from under the pillow, and spread it in front of Xia Houhui. Xia Houhui closed his eyes subconsciously and turned his head: "I won't look at it, so take it away quickly."
"Okay, this is what he asked you to see." Lingdang pouted, looking angry and funny.
Xia Houhui opened his eyes suspiciously, slowly turned his head, looked at the bell, and saw the suppressed smile on her face, then moved his eyes to the piece of paper. There were only two lines of words on the piece of paper: "One thought"
Heaven, one thought, hell. I am lucky if I gain it, and my life is lost if I lose it."
Xia Houhui's face suddenly turned pale, and her body couldn't help but tremble. After a while, she slowly regained her composure, and a blush appeared on her face. She couldn't help but sigh, and said coquettishly: "
The villain is proud!"
"Girl, what is this?" Lingdang was puzzled: "What kind of important information is this? It's so simple?"
"This is very important information, but it has nothing to do with the war. It is only related to your life and mine." Xia Houhui took the paper, bit his lip, and reached out to tear it. Just after tearing a hole, he felt a little reluctant to let it go, and his eyes flashed.
Turn around, get up and get dressed, then fold the piece of paper carefully and put it into her pocket. She ignored the confused bell, opened the tent door, and walked out facing the bright morning sun.
…
Wei Ba finished practicing boxing, had breakfast, rode his horse, and led Dun Wu and others to the main camp. After passing Zhang Shao's camp, he stopped, thought for a while, turned his horse and headed towards the camp.
Go to the door.
When the soldiers at the camp gate saw Wei Ba, they quickly stepped forward and saluted. Wei Ba waved his hand and asked, "Is Zhang Hou here?"
"Here, there." The soldier said repeatedly.
"Well, could you please inform me that I want to meet Zhang Hou?"
"Here. Please join the army and wait a moment." The soldier responded and turned around. Not long after, Zhang Shao strode out of the camp, followed by Guan Xing. From a distance, Zhang Shao laughed loudly:
"What kind of wind is this that brings the powerful Wei Shenjun to my place?"
Wei Ba came forward to greet him, bowed his hands and saluted, and said with a smile: "I have seen these two princes. The two princes have noble status. I, a person without a title, dare not come to the door easily. Where are you training your troops?"
"
Zhang Shao said: "Exactly, I have nothing to do and practice my troops. Once Wei Canjun is given a chance to go into battle someday, we can't insult the name of our ancestors. Is it possible that Wei Canjun is about to start a war?"
Wei Ba smiled slightly: "It's not enough to start a war. However, I would like to ask Zhang Hou to come and sit at my place when he has time. I don't know if it is an honor." He turned to Guan Xing and said: "If Guan Hou is interested, we can come together.
If you go, then I will be even more brilliant."
Zhang Shao and Guan Xing looked at each other and smiled. "I've been invited to join the army, how dare you not obey?"
"Okay, let's do it tonight." Wei Ba immediately decided on the time, pointing at Guan and Zhang, and then at himself: "It's just the three of us, let's get together."
"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders." Zhang Shao and Guan Xing returned the courtesy.
The three chatted for a few more words before parting ways. Wei Ba got on his horse and continued to rush to the supply camp. He also ordered Wei Xing to rush back immediately and inform Xiahou Hui and Zhang Shao that Guan Xing was going to be a guest and asked her to prepare some food and wine.
Both Guan and Zhang are descendants of the founding fathers, and they are the sons of nobles who attract attention with every gesture they make, especially Zhang Shao, whose sister is now the queen. These two people have too much status.
He was sensitive, so he never took the initiative to make friends. This time he took the initiative to invite Zhang Shao as a guest, it was actually because of Xia Houhui. Zhang Shao's mother, Mrs. Xia Hou, was Xia Houyuan's daughter, and was of the same race as Xia Houhui's father, Xia Houshang.
The elders of Xia Houhui. If they were in their hometown, their relationship was not close enough, but in Shu, they were the closest people by blood.
Xia Houhui asked him last night whether the country was more important or the family was more important. He understood the entanglement in Xia Houhui's heart, and he also understood that no matter how much he talked, he could not untie Xia Houhui's knot. This question should be answered most appropriately by Mrs. Xiahou Hui.
, so he told Xia Houhui that he could not answer her now and would wait until he found the right person to give her the answer.
Obviously Xia Houhui understood this sentence, so she did not make any changes later, and Wei Ba also avoided a difficult decision. However, this knot of confusion, Xia Houhui is a dangerous factor after all. If he wants to truly win her heart
, and you have to use a tactic to attack the heart. Taking the initiative to invite Zhang Shao as a guest is part of the plan to attack the heart. Inviting Guan Xing by the way is of course also a smooth process, taking this opportunity to have further contact with these important people of the Yuan Cong Department.
Wei Ba walked into the supply camp while thinking about it. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wu Yi. Wu Yi stood with his hands behind his hands at the place where he used to test the armored ship, looking a little sad. He heard Wei Ba's footsteps.
, he turned sideways, glanced at Wei Ba, and said with a wry smile: "Ziyu, are you here?"
Wei Ba saw that Wu Yi was looking wrong, so he quickly responded, stepped forward, and asked respectfully: "General, is there something wrong when you come so early?"
"It's okay." Wu Yi lowered his head and walked slowly along the wooden bridge extending to the middle of the river. Wei Ba followed him wisely, and their guards were guarding the bridge to prevent anyone from approaching.
, so as not to disturb their conversation.
The two of them reached the end of the bridge and were already more than twenty steps away from the shore. As long as they didn't speak loudly, people on the shore would not be able to hear them. Only then did Wu Yi speak: "The Prime Minister has arrived in Jiangzhou."
"So fast?" Wei Ba was surprised. He had carefully planned to withdraw his troops from Guanzhong, and it had only been a month and a half at most. Zhuge Liang was marching in a hurry at this speed. No wonder he wanted to leave the wounded soldiers in Guanzhong to recuperate. It turned out that he had already
This plan.
"Well, he is anxious to preside over the war in Yong'an." Wu Yi said in a nonchalant manner, handing over a newspaper: "Congratulations, your father, son and brothers have been promoted to high official positions."
