Yongzhou Chang'an City.

At this time, Zhang Xiu was very depressed.

He felt like he was always one step behind.

There is an old saying that goes well, if you are slow to take one step, you will be slow to eat shit even if it is hot.

This is Zhang Xiu's true inner portrayal.

When he was in Hongnong, he heard that the players had encountered the Huns. Here he was worshiping with his subordinates, preparing to kill a wave of Huns.

As a result, he hurriedly arrived in Chang'an, preparing to join the player army.

But as soon as he arrived in Chang'an, he was told that the Huns had been destroyed by the emperor's own army, and even King Zuoxian of the Huns was still hanging on the city wall.

One can imagine how depressed Zhang Xiu was.

He has a feeling that there is no place for heroes.

This day the emperor's own army was too powerful. One hundred thousand Huns could be destroyed at any time.

If that's the case, what do you need these generals to do?

But facts do not depend on personal will. The Huns were indeed destroyed, and even An Ding, who was hiding behind the Huns, was captured by the Emperor's own army yesterday.

Zhang Xiu felt that his trip to Yongzhou was just a decoration.

So much so that now, Zhang Xiu is drinking in the military camp early in the morning.

At this time, his most loyal general Hu Che'er directly opened the curtain of the big tent and walked in.

Originally, Zhang Xiu had a pair of right-hand men who were versatile in both civil and military affairs. The literary here naturally refers to the old fox Jia Xu.

But since the last time, Jia Xu followed him to Luoyang to meet the emperor, the emperor allowed Jia Xu to stay in Luoyang, and also gave him an official position in the Shaofu to stay in Luoyang.

To be honest, Zhang Xiu was very happy to see Jia Xu promoted to Shaofu, one of the nine ministers.

But for some reason, he was still a little uncomfortable without Jia Xu.

After all, if he had anything he couldn't figure out before, he could still ask Jia Xu. But now, he didn't even have anyone to consult with. This made Zhang Xiu uncomfortable with asking Jia Xu for everything.

As for Wu, it must be Hu Che'er.

This guy is also a tough guy.

Although Hu Che'er's martial arts skills are not very high and he has only reached the Crystallization level of Tianquan realm, but this guy is born with divine power. When the small universe explodes, it is not a problem to fight back to the original level of Tianji realm.

After all, this is the age of cold weapons, and a person with natural supernatural powers will always take advantage.

But there is a saying that goes well, since God opens a door for you, then he will definitely close a window for you.

It is true that Hu Cheer was born with supernatural powers, but he seemed to focus all his skill points on supernatural powers, so that his IQ was often not online.

"Lord! Someone is looking for you outside." Hu Che'er came up with a loud voice that made Zhang Xiu's ears hurt.

"Someone is looking for me? Who is it?" Zhang Xiu took out his ears and looked at Hu Che'er.

"An old man, tall and thin, whom I don't recognize, is accompanied by a boy, and there are some soldiers behind him." Hu Che'er thought for a while and described it to Zhang Xiu.

"Who asked you about the other person's appearance! Where did they come from?" Zhang Xiu felt that it was a little difficult for him to talk to Hu Che'er.

"Oh, my lord, you are asking where it comes from, so you should explain it clearly. I am not very smart. If you don't explain it clearly, how will I know what you are talking about?" Hu Cheer said to Zhang Xiu carelessly.

Zhang Xiu was speechless when he heard Hu Che'er's words.

Is this his fault, or is it my fault?

"Speak quickly, don't say so many things." Zhang Xiu said impatiently.

"Lord, you are cruel to me!" When Hu Che'er heard Zhang Xiu's words, he immediately felt aggrieved.

My lord, I'm not smart. Isn't it all your fault? Now I dislike myself. What's going on?

Therefore, Hu Cheer felt aggrieved, so aggrieved that he wanted to cry.

When Zhang Xiu saw Hu Che'er like this, he suddenly felt like his head was big.

Why did you fall in love with a fool like Hu Che'er?

So Zhang Xiu spent a few more minutes to comfort Hu Che'er's injured heart.

After finally calming Hu Che'er's young mind, Zhang Xiu asked again: "Who is looking for me outside?"

"I told you, it's an old man with a child and their two soldiers." Hu Che'er said impatiently.

"I'm asking, where do they come from and what are they called?" Zhang Xiu was speechless.

"Oh, my lord, that's what you're asking about. He said his name is Ma Teng and he comes from Xiliang." Hu Cheer only understood what Zhang Xiu meant when he heard Zhang Xiushu speak so straightforwardly.

"Ma Teng? Why is he here?" Zhang Xiu frowned when he heard Hu Che'er's words.

Logically speaking, he and Ma Teng have nothing to do with each other. It can even be said that they have a grudge.

After all, strictly speaking, Ma Teng is now considered one of the princes, and he, Zhang Xiu, is now General Annan recognized by the emperor.

One belongs to the emperor's personal army, the direct line troops, and the other is the local reactionary armed forces. No matter how you look at it, you can't pee in a pot. Moreover, Zhang Xiu was still in the Xiliang army system before, following his uncle under the command of Li Jue and Guo Si.

At that time, Ma Teng had caused many problems for them.

Now come to yourself, did Ma Teng take the wrong medicine?

However, doubts remain doubts, Ma Teng is outside the camp now, and it is impossible for you to say that you can't see him.

"Hu Che'er, go and bring Ma Teng and the others in." Zhang Xiu thought for a while and felt that he should meet Ma Teng.

"Oh, okay." Hu Che'er responded and prepared to walk out.

"Be polite to others! Don't be careless, it's disrespectful!" Zhang Xiu looked at Hu Che'er's carelessness and quickly added.

He was afraid that this idiot, who knew nothing and had no etiquette, would offend Ma Teng.

You know, now they not only represent themselves, but also the face of the emperor.

If you are rude to Ma Teng, Ma Teng will not only think you are rude, but also think that the emperor's subordinates are a group of uneducated people.

Doesn’t this discredit the emperor?

Zhang Xiu now wholeheartedly wants to hold the emperor's thigh, so naturally he will not discredit the emperor. That's why he specially reminded Hu Che'er.

Zhang Xiu can guarantee that if he hadn't said this, Hu Che'er would never have thought of this.

Seeing Hu Che'er walking away, Zhang Xiu also called his own soldiers and asked them to tidy up the tent.

Bring in some new food.

No matter what the reason for Ma Teng's visit this time, Zhang Xiu felt that as the host, he still had to show some etiquette and entertain him with good food and drink.

We cannot let these Xiliang barbarians think that the Emperor's subordinates are all a bunch of fools.

Soon the newly prepared food was brought in and placed on the prepared table.

As soon as everything was set up here, Zhang Xiu saw Hu Cheer, an old man and a young boy, walking towards the main tent.
