Seeing the two people quarreling with each other, Miss Du became more and more excited and worried. She stepped forward and took Du Ji's hand, "Brother, what are you doing? He and I are here to save you. If you don't treat me well, why don't you treat me well?"
What's the point of threatening him with words?"
After speaking, he pointed at Zhou Yuanfu and said, "You are the same. Sitting here only drinking and eating meat, completely ignoring etiquette. If you don't hurry up and give me a gift to my cousin, you are really a country bumpkin and ignorant."
The people around him were as dumbfounded as if they were watching a play.
Zhou Yuanfu was determined in his heart and looked around. With the help of these people in the hall, he could deal with Qu Yi completely. Besides, Du Ji clearly recognized Mrs. Du and did not let her avoid him. Isn't he afraid of using the same weapon as a rat?
Huh? He probably didn’t have any evidence and was just testing himself with words.
"Okay, okay, I will listen to my wife."
Zhou Yuanfu made up his mind and stood up.
"After Jianghou of the Han Dynasty, a direct descendant of General Xiliu, a white man from Zhoucang, pays homage to his wife and brother!"
Zhou Yuanfu stood up and truly saluted, then turned around and said to the stunned crowd, "Come on, everyone, please take a seat, please take a seat."
Yang Song was accustomed to observing people's words and emotions in his work. This very complicated information suddenly poured into his mind, making him overwhelmed. However, he knew that today's matter should not make a big deal, and it was only proper for everyone to leave safely.
"I remembered that your majesty has just granted amnesty to the world. This week, Zhou Zhuangshi is now considered a white man. He has been able to suppress thieves for the country. It is very good." After saying that, he sat down.
The chief secretary, Zhao Song, also came to his senses.
"That's right, it's not just a white body. I heard Zhuangshi Zhou said that he is the direct descendant of General Xiliu after Jianghou. That means he is the queen of a famous family. General Zhou is polite." After saying that, he also sat down.
Seeing that it was his uncle and his wife's brother, Chen Tiao thought it was a household matter, so he bowed to Zhou Cang and sat down.
Du Ji's face was still gloomy, and he whispered to Miss Du: "You go to the back hall first, how can you be dressed like this? I will take care of you later."
After hearing this, Mrs. Du looked at Du Ji and then at Zhou Cang, pouting. She also knew her cousin's temper. But she still couldn't worry about the two of them. She passed by Zhou Cang and stretched out her hand to twist it, and said to his ear:
"You talk to my cousin properly. If you offend my cousin, I will deal with you later."
Zhou Yuanfu snorted, then squeezed out a smile and said: "What's wrong, brother-in-law? Everyone has taken their seats, do you, the master, want to raise a toast?"
Du Ji snorted and returned to his seat.
There was silence in the place, and everyone was very embarrassed.
Zhou Yuanfu sat down in Ju Yi's original position. He felt that it was very uncomfortable to kneel down, so he simply sat there sideways. Ju Yi, however, remained calm and stood behind Zhou Yuanfu like a javelin.
At this moment, the horns all over the city were blown again, and a junior high school student ran in and said, "This is to inform the Lord Commander, the traitors are attacking the city again."
Du Ji finally spoke again, "Zhou Cang, whether you want to be a thief or to suppress thieves depends on your thoughts. If you are a thief, then you should cooperate inside and outside, and we will die without a place to die. If it is to suppress thieves, now is the time for you to contribute.
Got it!"
Zhou Yuanfu turned around and signaled to Ju Yi, who followed his previous plan to assemble his troops to meet the enemy.
Everyone was waiting in the hall, no one moved, and they had no intention of drinking or eating. They just sat in silence, listening to the sound of golden drums outside.
About an hour later, another junior high school student ran in and said, "This is to inform the Lord Commander, General Ju has killed the traitors."
Everyone's brows relaxed after hearing this, and the expression on Du Ji's face also relaxed a little.
Although they were all relieved, everyone was restless after all. After drinking a few drinks, they all left in a hurry, saying that they had something to do.
Only Zhou Cang and Du Ji were left in the hall.
Zhou Cang then sat upright and said, "Brother Wife, now you have verified my sincerity. All of you adults and I have had a drink just now. Come on, let's have a drink."
Du Ji still didn't raise his glass, but looked at Zhou Yuanfu coldly, his sharp eyes seeming to penetrate Zhou Yuanfu's heart.
"Oh, brother, he has already sent people to fight off the thieves, but you are still cold-faced. This is your fault."
When Mrs. Du saw that everyone had left, she changed into women's clothes and came back from the back hall.
Du Ji finally relaxed his brows and said, "You are getting more and more courageous. Let me report it to Uncle Ming and see how he punishes you."
Zhou Yuanfu here raised his cup and coughed awkwardly.
But Mrs. Du took the wine glass and said, "Okay, I just saw you drinking a lot in the back hall. Brother, I'd like to give you a drink, little sister."
Du Ji postponed but had only one drink.
"Brother, why are you always frowning? Weren't the traitors repulsed?"
Seeing Du Ji frowning again, Mrs. Du couldn't help asking.
"Don't ask. I know what your brother is thinking. The thieves were driven back today, and they will come back tomorrow. As for me, your brother is even more worried in the city. I'm afraid I will sing with the thieves.
It's a cruel trick, a night attack at night, the inside should be coordinated with the outside. I can't even sleep peacefully like this." Zhou Yuanfu said nonchalantly.
Du Ji was struck by what he said, his eyes became complicated, and he continued to stare at Zhou Yuanfu.
Zhou Yuanfu saw that Du Ji's expression was still so cold, so he said with a playful smile: "How about I have a way to solve this dilemma?"
Zhou Yuanfu gave up and waited for Du Ji to answer, but Du Ji always ignored him, making him panic.
"Come on, tell me. You just love to show off. Since you have a perfect plan, don't let my brother worry."
Miss Du wanted to shake Zhou Yuanfu's arm again, but remembering what happened last time, her face turned red and she pinched him instead.
Zhou Yuanfu pretended to be in pain, "It hurts me to death. Please be gentle. When did you develop this problem? Men and women are not close to each other, so we two should stay away from each other."
Du Ji said sternly: "Wan'er, don't fool around and listen to his plan."
This was said to Miss Du, and only then did Zhou Yuanfu know that Mrs. Du's name was Du Waner.
Zhou Yuanfu was angry, this Du Ji was really an old fox, ignoring him life and death.
"Ahem, it's been several days since Lu attacked Nanzheng. Fortunately, Master Du was able to strategize and save the city. It's really a great achievement." Zhou Yuanfu could only give it a thumbs up to see if Du Ji would take the move.
.
"Hmph, do descendants of Jianghou only say flattering words? I have seen too many flatterers." Du Ji still said coldly.
Zhou Yuanfu was looking for trouble and made his boss unhappy, so he no longer had to go around in circles.
"Lu Jiu can't attack this piece. It is estimated that food and grass are in short supply, which means he refuses to withdraw his troops due to face. At this time, it would be nice to find someone who can argue and persuade them, at least to persuade them to withdraw their troops, or at worst to persuade them to surrender."
Du Ji was slightly moved after hearing this, "Are you willing to be a lobbyist?"
"Oh, brother, how could you let him go?" Mrs. Du immediately became anxious. She suddenly realized that she had lost her composure and whispered, "He is so clumsy and clumsy that he will ruin your big event again."
"I didn't notice that he was clumsy, but he was very slippery. How about that? Do you have the guts?" Du Ji said excitedly.
Zhou Yuanfu was secretly proud in his heart. This was what he wanted to do in the first place, but he still pretended to frown, "You are a man. I kindly gave you advice, but you asked me to die."
"What? Don't you dare?" Du Ji still used the strategy of provoking generals.
Mrs. Du was about to cry next to her, "Brother, see if you can arrange for someone else. This person's clumsy tongue will annoy the thieves. If the thieves attack the city again, what should we do at that time?"
ah?"
Du Ji remained unmoved and just stared at Zhou Yuanfu with burning eyes.
Zhou Yuanfu saw that he had finished pretending, so he stood up and said: "Since Lord Jun Cheng really has no capable people under his command, I will reluctantly make a trip tonight. Alas, I don't know whether I will live or die after this trip.
ah."
After saying that, Zhou Yuanfu walked away shaking his head.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Mrs. Du was so anxious that she turned around and said to Du Ji, "Brother, don't stop me. If he..."
"If he died, wouldn't you be satisfied? I don't believe you can like him."
When Du Ji saw Zhou Yuanfu leaving, he naturally relaxed.
Seeing that she couldn't stop him, Mrs. Du said bitterly: "Then let him go. If he dies, there will be no need to write a letter of divorce."
Du Ji laughed loudly when he heard this, "Wan'er, when you were a child, you plucked out any unattractive flowers you saw and kicked any unattractive dogs you encountered. Why are you so emotional for such a black-faced thief?
