Chapter three hundred and eighty second: own people
Qinggong is not simply legwork and footwork, but also combines breathing techniques and some arm movements.
If you simply use your legs and hands without moving, you may fall if you run faster, let alone doing light kung fu.
And Xu Qing used the technique of Qinggong in this gambling game. He was almost as fast as a shadow, and there was a table blocking it. Xiao Ruxue still wanted to find out that he was cheating?
Don’t even think about it!
Of course, quick technique does not mean quick reaction, quick response. Under the chaos of swords, Xu Qing should be cool but still need to be cool.
Xu Qing exchanged another card with Long Bing'er, pushed the card, and once again completed the draw.
All colors!
"No more playing, no more playing, I'm going to take a bath!"
Xiao Ruxue, who had lost the most, threw away her cards and ran to the bathroom. This time, no one was going to hit her again.
Seeing that it was noon, Xu Qing got up to cook. The cute silly girl helped him win eight games today, so Xu Qing planned to cook eight dishes today to reward Long Bing'er.
Ask Xu Qing how difficult it is to win a game?
Back then, he was the mastermind facing two people by himself. Xuan'er, the cute little maid, didn't understand the dangers on the card table at all and still played her cards in a disciplined manner. She didn't understand Xu Qing's hints.
The addition of Long Bing'er finally reversed Xu Qing's losing streak.
Although there are still wins and losses for each other now, it is better than one person fighting two with a bottle of oil.
After the meal was done, Long Bing'er looked at the eight dishes and one soup on the table and then looked at Xu Qing who was washing his hands beside him. He knew how to cook so many dishes.
Su Qian said: "Miss Long, after you wash your hands, come and have dinner together."
As their friendship deepened, Su Qian no longer needed to call Long Bing'er deputy envoy. The professional title was somewhat unfamiliar.
Long Bing'er sniffed the fragrance escaping in the air and nodded subconsciously.
Su Jiyuan also left the office at this time and walked in.
After Xu Qing finished washing his hands, he looked at Su Jiyuan who came in and said, "My father-in-law is back. The food has been prepared. Please sit down quickly."
Su Jiyuan looked at Long Bing'er who had already changed his clothes, then at his daughter, and finally at Xu Qing, coughed a few times and waved his hands and said: "My father suddenly remembered that there are some things in the Yamen.
Let’s take care of it for my father.”
After saying that, Su Jiyuan turned around and walked out. He walked too quickly and tripped at the threshold.
When Xu Qing saw Su Jiyuan who almost fell down, he wanted to go over and help him, but Su Jiyuan quickly waved his hand: "I'm fine as a father."
After that, Su Jiyuan hurried out without even looking back.
After eating, Long Bing'er did not continue the competition with Su Qian and said goodbye.
Her clothes were dirty. Su Qian's dress was not suitable for fighting and would limit her performance.
She does not have as advanced a martial arts realm as Su Qian.
…
Long Bing'er returned to the residence of the Zhao delegation, and the two envoys were standing by the door frame chatting.
One of the two envoys was named Zhou and the other was named Zheng.
When the two envoys saw Long Binger, who was wearing a light white dress, coming in, they quickly raised their hands and said, "Deputy Envoy Long is back."
Long Bing'er's face had returned to indifference, she nodded, and then walked in.
The envoy named Zheng looked at the envoy named Zhou and wondered: "Didn't the deputy envoy wear black clothes when he went out just now? Why did he come back wearing white clothes?"
The envoy surnamed Zhou said in confusion: "The deputy envoy told the chief envoy when he went out in the morning. At that time, I remember that deputy envoy Long said that he had important matters to go to Anding Bo's Mansion. When the chief envoy asked about it, the deputy envoy just said
He said he wanted to fight again to make his regrets go away."
The envoy surnamed Zheng asked in surprise: "A fight? Is there anyone who even changed their clothes after a fight? Did the deputy envoy really just go to the Anding residence to fight?"
The envoy surnamed Zhou: "When the deputy envoy passed by just now, it seemed that he still smelled of the soap sold by the Chu State Commercial Academy. It seemed that he had just taken a bath..."
The man surnamed Zheng said in surprise: "Have a fight and take a shower?!"
At this moment, the envoy named Zhou coughed twice, and the envoy named Zheng immediately fell silent.
At this moment, Zhao Guozheng came out, looked at the two people at the door, frowned and said, "What were you two muttering about just now?"
The envoys named Zhou and Zheng shook their heads quickly: "No, no..."
At this moment, the deputy envoy of Zhou State passed by the door, and the envoy of Zhao State took two steps forward and cupped his hands and said: "Brother Yang."
The two countries have now basically reached a strategic consensus and are getting closer to forming an alliance. It can be said that they are ready to jointly send troops to attack Chu at any time.
As for why there is no alliance yet...
Because reaching a strategic consensus does not mean that there will be no other conflicts between the two countries, and the conditions have not been negotiated. How can it be so easy to form an alliance?
It is extremely difficult for two political parties in the same country to form an alliance when they have reached a consensus on the strategy of domestic and foreign aggression, let alone between two countries.
After hearing the words of the envoy Zhao, the deputy envoy Zhou just glanced at the envoy Zhao. Finally, he let out a dull snort and continued to walk forward, ignoring him at all.
When Zhao Guozheng saw this scene, his smile suddenly froze on his face, and his cupped hands froze in mid-air.
When the envoy surnamed Zheng saw this scene, he couldn't help but said angrily: "Your Majesty, they are clearly looking down upon our Zhao state by behaving like this in the Zhou Kingdom!"
The envoy surnamed Zhou on the side also had an angry look on his face and said: "That's right, that's right! Envoys are the face of a country. The envoys of the Zhou Kingdom behave like this and have no intention of forming an alliance with our Zhao Kingdom!"
The envoy surnamed Zheng continued to grit his teeth and said: "That's right, looking at that, how can the Zhou Kingdom have any intention of forming an alliance? Such clear eyes are as if they are looking at their vassal states of the Zhou Kingdom!"
Zhao Guozheng's face also darkened, his eyes flickered, but he finally said: "Shut up! How can we allow you to talk nonsense about state affairs?!"
After saying that, Zhao Guozheng shook his sleeves and walked into the yard.
night
Anding Bofu
My father-in-law was very unusual tonight. He ate three large bowls of rice in a row, which was more than Xu Qing and Su Qian put together.
The second day
early morning
Xu Qing arrived in the capital early.
I have been catching fish at home for so long, and now I have to start getting down to business.
Mr. Anding County is like a brick, it needs to be moved wherever it goes.
If you don't do anything easily at home, you will have to do big things once you do it.
…
As soon as Xu Qing entered the capital, she saw Long Bing'er walking towards her. Long Bing'er was still wearing Mrs. Xu Qing's clothes today.
Light white dress.
Long Bing'er naturally saw Xu Qing, took two steps forward and came to Xu Qing, and asked: "Why did you come to Beijing today?"
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er and said with some surprise: "I'm here to see Zhao Guo's envoy. It's great to meet you. How about you introduce him to me?"
Long Bing'er looked at Xu Qing and asked doubtfully: "You want to see the envoy?"
Xu Qing nodded and looked at Long Bing'er: "We are all our own people, so you won't refuse to help us, right?"
When Long Bing'er heard this, she glanced at Xu Qing in embarrassment: "You are from the Chu country, and I am from the Zhao country. Who is from your own country..."
Xu Qing said matter-of-factly: "If there are over a thousand people on a card table, are they not considered one of our own?"
