Deserter? Why would a deserter be accused in the capital?
This kind of thing only happens at the border. In the capital, no one even cares about deserters.
General Liu was stunned for a moment. He stretched out his hand and the clerk hurriedly handed it to him.
General Liu took a look and found that it was indeed the case.
I don't know whether it was because he couldn't blame the clerk, or because the word "Northwest" stimulated him, but he slapped the documents heavily on several cases.
"Sir, this is an anonymous complaint, you can ignore it..." the clerk reminded.
Various government offices in the capital receive numerous anonymous reports of this kind every day.
Since it is anonymous, it is either a private false accusation to vent one's anger, or the defendant is too powerful to be offended. In short, he is either too lazy to take care of it or cannot take care of it, so it has always been a common practice to ignore it.
General Liu looked at this document and his eyes fell on the words "Northwestern Camp" and "Desert". The more he looked at it, the more eye-catching he felt.
"You can fight and run away, you can fight and not fight..." He murmured, "What a waste of good luck..."
As he spoke, he clapped his hands together again.
"I don't know what's good or bad!" he shouted.
The clerk shivered with fright.
General Liu looked at the document.
"Deserts in the army are shot before the battle and have their bones beaten as punishment." He said, "I have even told you where I hid, how can I pretend not to see it? What's the use of keeping this kind of trash?"
!”
After he said that, he stood up.
"Come here!" he shouted, "come with me to catch the deserters!"
A night rain has made the late summer heat fade a bit, and the weather is slightly cooler. It is the most comfortable time of the year.
Mrs. Qin sat on the porch, watching the maids clearing away the broken flowers, and listening to Qin Shisanlang's words, with a leisurely and contented expression until she heard a sentence.
"What do you want me to do?"
Mrs. Qin looked at Thirteenth Qin in surprise, thinking that she had heard wrongly.
"Find a matchmaker to propose marriage to Mrs. Cheng's family." Qin Shisanlang said calmly.
All the servants and wives in the room stared at him, and Mrs. Qin finally knew that she had heard correctly.
"So soon?" She smiled, looked at her son with a bit of teasing, and asked with a raised eyebrow, "Is it because we were secretly in love before or just recently? I thought it would take at least three to five months before you would think of it.
What about this matter?"
"I knew my mother had misunderstood." Qin Shisanlang smiled calmly and said, "This is not for me, but for her. My mother doesn't know that she has rules for seeing a doctor."
"I know her rules." Mrs. Qin smiled.
Qin Shisanlang smiled even more happily.
"Does mother know what her third rule is?" he asked.
Mrs. Qin looked a little confused, and Thirteenth Qin couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Isn't there two? Is there a third one?" Mrs. Qin frowned with a bit of surprise, paused briefly, and said, "I know you won't get married to someone who has been treated."
Qin Shisanlang looked stunned.
Mrs. Qin's laughter sounded in the room.
"Mother!" Qin Shisanlang was helpless and angry, he stood up and waved his sleeves to leave.
"Don't be upset, don't be upset." Mrs. Qin hurriedly smiled and called to him, "I listen to you, I listen to you, and I will send a matchmaker to propose marriage to you. Not only the matchmaker, but also my mother, I will go to see Mrs. Cheng in person..."
Qin Shisanlang turned around.
"It's not...it's...not necessarily...for me." He hesitated and said, "My mother can choose a few more good families, as long as she is not allowed to marry the libertine Wang family chosen by her father's family."
Mrs. Qin looked at him.
"Choose a few good families for her?" She asked with a smile, waving her fan, "Are you willing to do it?"
Compared to the Qin family's mother and son, who were smiling happily, the Zhou family's place was a bit chaotic.
"Looking for a matchmaker to arrange a marriage for her?" Mrs. Zhou shouted, angrily staring, reaching out to point at Liu Lang, "You worthless person, I knew it, I knew you were obsessed with her!"
Saturday Lang blushed.
"Finding a matchmaker is not necessarily for me, but to find a good match for her," he said.
"What's wrong with that marriage?" Mrs. Zhou shouted, "She's taken a liking to her and everyone is happy. Why are you joining in the fun?"
Master Zhou remained silent here, and when he heard this, he slapped his leg.
"Yes, since they are all talking about marriage, if the Cheng family can say it, we can naturally do it, so why should the Cheng family say whoever it is is who it is! Okay, we can naturally have the final say." He said, looking at Zuorulang.
, "Good boy, you better think about it."
Seeing his father say this, Zhou Lang could not help but feel a hint of joy.
Sure enough it is possible...
"No!" Mrs. Zhou said hurriedly, "You are confused. She has fallen in love with someone else. Why are you making such a fuss! If you ruin someone else's marriage and offend her, isn't that causing trouble?"
"She didn't like it, she just liked it because she couldn't help it." Saturday Lang said in a low voice.
"What do you know!" Mrs. Zhou turned to him and raised her eyebrows and yelled, "I knew she didn't like you! You should give up on me as soon as possible!"
"I know she doesn't like me." Zhou Lang was anxious and raised his head and said, "I do like her, okay!"
What... ghost?
Mr. Zhou and his wife looked at him in astonishment.
Zhou Lang was also stunned, and immediately his face turned red, he got up and ran away quickly.
It was fresh after the rain, and there were obviously many more people on the street.
Xu Maoxiu, who was walking through the crowd, stopped and Xu Bangchui, who was walking behind him, almost bumped into him without warning.
"Brother?" he asked.
Xu Maoxiu was already looking at the butcher shop on the street with a smile.
"..Is the mutton fresh today?" he asked.
Although they have not been together for a long time, these two people are already known to everyone in the market. They are very picky owners of Shenxianju, but they are also the most generous owners. The most important thing is that they claim to only buy the freshest and best meat.
Whoever can get them to purchase will have a bright face, be worthy of showing off, and have a better chance of doing business.
It's just that this Shenxianju is also a stickler. Since choosing a shop that serves mutton, it has not looked at other shops, which only made the people in the market shop secretly anxious.
Unexpectedly, he was asked about it at this time. The shopkeeper of the butcher shop was stunned and immediately overjoyed.
"Boss, our mutton is the freshest. The first ones came in from the South City Gate this morning and were just slaughtered... Come and have a look in the backyard..." he said happily.
Xu Maoxiu stretched out his hand to pick up the mutton, looked at it, smiled and said hello, and walked to another restaurant with the expectation of the shopkeeper.
The entire meat market was abuzz with excitement, and there was a lot of shouting and shouting.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Xu Bangchui asked in a low voice in confusion. He finally got rid of the enthusiastic pull of a butcher shop and followed Xu Maoxiu who was walking up.
"Someone is following." Xu Maoxiu whispered, "Don't look back."
Xu Bangchui stopped his neck abruptly, and followed Xu Maoxiu to stop in front of a shop.
"..How to sell this..."
Conversations and inquiries continued in the street.
After twisting and turning through an alley, Xu Maoxiu and Xu Maoxiu leaned against the wall and looked back cautiously.
"Brother, did you get rid of it?" Xu Bangchui asked in a low voice.
Xu Maoxiu frowned.
"Not sure." He said, "The person this time is very powerful, he seems to be a veteran."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand.
The two of them walked forward quickly. As soon as they left the alley, they saw a group of people rushing towards them from the opposite side.
"Okay, you really managed to get rid of all my people in one move!" the leader of the armored man roared.
Xu Maoxiu and Xu Bangchui immediately turned around when they saw them.
A group of people also came here.
"Bold thief, quickly hold your head and arrest him without any help!"
There were shouts and shouts in the streets and alleys.
"Brother, why are they all from the government?" Xu Bangchui shouted in surprise.
Could it be that the affairs of Liu Xiaoli and others were found out?
My sister had said before that unless she asked them to enter the cell, she could never enter the cell at any other time, and she could never give herself to them. It didn't matter if she killed someone, as long as she escaped.
Xu Maoxiu didn't say anything, stepped forward and rushed towards the group of people.
Xu Bangchui also followed suit.
With three clicks and two clicks, the two of them rushed through the group of people.
"Excellent skills!" General Liu exclaimed, but immediately became even more angry, "With such good skills, it is not for killing the enemy, but for escaping!"
After saying that, he waved his hand.
"Archer!"
"Xu Maoxiu, Xu Bangchui!"
"If you don't hold back, I'll shoot you on the spot without leaving a trace!"
Xu Maoxiu and Xu Maoxiu were already facing the enemy back to back. After hearing this, their expressions were solemn and they raised their eyes to look this way.
"Brother!" Xu Bangchui shouted in a low voice, "They have few archers. We can use the people here to protect us. We can avoid them ten steps away."
Xu Maoxiu nodded, and with General Liu's shouts, the two of them rushed towards this side at the same time.
Seeing that the two men were captured without restraint, and that the two did not turn around and escape, but instead pounced on the retreating besiegers, everyone lost their countenance.
With a burst of shouting, Xu Maoxiu and the two men grabbed two shields from the soldiers with spears, swords and clubs and blocked them in front of them.
"Sir, these two are so fierce!"
The more aggressive General Liu was, the angrier he became.
"Damn, you are so fierce! These are two cowards!" He shouted, jumped off his horse, took off his strong bow, and pointed an arrow at Xu Maoxiu and the two of them, and walked forward step by step, "You two cowards! You have what it takes to do it.
Deserters, if you have the ability, you can use your brothers to block swords and arrows. If you have the ability, you can fight with me!"
deserter?
Xu Maoxiu froze.
"What deserter? Did your Excellency admit the wrong person?" he shouted.
General Liu sighed, but still walked over step by step, firing his bow and setting an arrow.
"Team A of Weizhou Jieshibao City Guards is brave, Xu Maoxiu, Xu Bangchui obeys the order!" he shouted sternly.
This kind of title has not rang in my ears for more than a year.
"You brave men, step forward and kill the enemy!"
The camp horn seemed to be ringing in my ears, and the sound of fighting in front of the formation was endless.
Xu Maoxiu's body was straightened, and the hand that was holding the soldier was trembling slightly.
"What does it mean to be brave? You are brave and good at fighting, and you are relied upon by the general. What do you think you are doing now?" General Liu shouted, "You are holding your own brother to block the arrow. You bastards, I will kill people like you."
You all think it’s dirty! Now, if I don’t kill you, you can fucking leave! Put down your weapons, and I send you off to all brave men!”
With these words, his followers actually put away their weapons and looked at the two men with a bit of ridicule.
He even grinned at the soldier who was being choked by Xu Maoxiu.
"Be brave and hold me tight. Even though I'm from a small school, I'm still brave enough to fight until death comes. I won't kneel down and run away under your hands," he said.
Xu Maoxiu lost all his strength. (To be continued)
