Chapter five hundred and ninety first: too tormenting
The little girl is really full of youth and vitality. She seems to have ADHD and is constantly moving every day. She is restless while riding a horse.
But she was uneasy, and had she considered Xu Qing's feelings?
He has been forced to be single for several months since his wife became pregnant. How could he bear to have such a little beauty nuzzling in his arms every day?
Little girls don't understand anything and are pure, but he is different...
Especially this time when she was riding a horse, she was sitting face to face with him.
It’s so torturous!
The little girl was pressed on the head by Xu Qing and couldn't move, so she had to puff her mouth and ask: "How long can we keep walking on the road?"
Xu Qing looked at the little girl and said, "If you keep dawdling, I probably won't be able to return to the capital for a month."
When the little girl heard this, her eyes lit up: "Then can I wait a little longer?"
Xu Qing quickly shook his head and said, "Don't dawdle on the horse..."
Xiao Ruxue said: "Then let's find an inn to rest for a while, okay? I'm a little sleepy now. Did I not sleep well last night?"
Xu Qing looked down at Xiao Ruxue who was leaning in his arms and said: "You listened to the story in the middle of the night yesterday and got up early. It's strange that you're not sleepy. Just lean on me and sleep for a while. You should be there soon."
.”
After Xiao Ruxue said "Oh", she leaned into Xu Qing's arms and closed her eyes.
Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene. The little girl finally stopped moving.
Yesterday, she listened to stories until midnight and told stories to herself until midnight. Strictly speaking, she was driving tired now.
Fortunately, horses are different from machines. Horses have brains and will not just hit trees and walls. The only thing you have to pay attention to is not to fall off the horse.
The road ahead is long and there is no end in sight, but I don’t feel lonely holding such a cute and beautiful girl on the road... It’s just a little uncomfortable... because she likes to move around...
I don't know if she will move around when she falls asleep.
Xu Qing couldn't help but start to look forward to the future at this time.
If a little girl gets married and she goes to bed at night, will she be kicked down by her because she likes to move around?
Xu Qing looked down at the little girl's sleeping face leaning against his chest, feeling rare silence.
Needless to say, although the little girl is very dishonest most of the time, there is a period of time where she is absolutely comforting, and that is the period when she is about to fall asleep.
Her face is tender and tender, with long eyelashes and a slightly trembling little nose, as quiet as a porcelain doll.
Just when Xu Qing felt that the little girl's peaceful sleeping face was very beautiful, the little girl who had completely fallen asleep began to move around again.
Although the little girl can't move much while riding the horse now, when she is facing him at this time, as long as she twists her body a little, she will immediately make people uncontrollable.
Xu Qing had no choice but to hold down the little girl's slender waist with one hand to stop her from moving, and then held the reins with the other hand to control the horse.
…
Traveling on the road has always been boring. There are no high-speed trains, no trains, and no planes here. Let alone crossing the Central Plains, it takes nearly ten days to get from the capital of Chu State to the southern border of Chu State.
If there is a little girl who likes to dawdle both on the road and on horseback, this time can be more than doubled.
While walking and stopping along the way, when she saw something interesting, the little girl had to run over and play for the whole day.
If they were traveling to a place with no village or store at noon, Xiao Ruxue would shoot a rabbit or some other animal with a bow and arrow.
But now Xiao Ruxue needs Xu Qing to accompany her when she goes into the woods. This is a sequelae of the last encounter with a spider. Xiao Ruxue now no longer dares to go into the woods alone.
Of course, Xu Qing is not 100% safe. He also has things to fear. Xiao Ruxue is afraid of those with many legs, while Xu Qing is afraid of those without feet...
Just like the last time he met a snake in the woods, Xu Qing's hair stood on end. He pulled Xiao Ruxue and ran outside. However, when Xiao Ruxue saw that it was just a snake, she immediately broke away from Xu Qing's hand.
He chopped the snake into pieces with a sword and roasted it to eat.
Of course, the snake was not baked by Xu Qing, but was manipulated by Xiao Ruxue. Xu Qing was only responsible for providing theoretical guidance while squatting ten feet away.
Don't tell me, if you don't have any feet, then you don't have any feet. The taste is okay...
It looks good after being baked.
On the way back to Beijing, Xu Qing encountered many bandits and bandits who were fleeing for their lives.
According to what these escaped bandits said, a group of gangsters armed with knives and guns would rob their village if they entered, and they would be as cruel as possible!
He is simply not human!
Then Xu Qing searched the bandits who they had managed to escape from the village. After searching out the last copper coins on them, Xu Qing threw them to the bandits with frightened eyes.
The shadow guard behind him escorted him to the Yamen.
Since then, the largest anti-gang and evil operation in the world has begun.
Shops, escort agencies and other businesses run by martial arts sects must also be inspected one by one to ensure compliance.
As for the bandits in the martial arts world of the Central Plains?
Ha, what I robbed was a bandit!
Xu Qing didn't know whether this was a disaster or a blessing, but the only thing he was sure of was that next time he went out, he might not be able to have fun robbing a bandit when he was bored.
On the way back to Beijing, Xu Qing also heard news about the border war between Chu and Zhou. This time, Chu's self-defense counterattack against Zhou went smoothly as never before. The border army had already captured one city and was preparing to attack the second one.
seat.
And this time is different from the past. This time, we are fighting and managing at the same time. The fighting will be slower. It is not like we have to push forward after fighting. However, we still have to deal with the rebellion and the spies who are lurking to cause trouble in the later stage.
.
Although the pace of this attack will be much slower, it can ensure that the captured land can be fully controlled.
In this war, the Chu State did not plan to capture much of their land. After all, the country was not rich. Now what the wise king wanted was for them to send envoys over quickly to sue for peace, so that the Chu State could take the opportunity to ask for a mental compensation fee:
Look, after you declared war, you scared us so much that we couldn't sleep well for more than half a year. Do you have to compensate us?
And there are these cities. After we capture them, we have to spend money to manage them. Since you declared the war, we can't pay for it, right?
Of course, we also captured a few of your talented generals. Shouldn't you pay to redeem them?
Finally, we also captured a large number of your troops. They eat and live on our property these days. Will you also pay for the food and accommodation expenses?
It doesn’t matter if you think it’s expensive. Considering that we are descendants of the same ancestry and descendants of the Yellow Emperor, we’ll give you another 12% off. If you still think it’s expensive, let’s give it 13% off.
Not only that, we also support repayment in installments.
Pay a down payment of 40% first, and the rest can be paid back slowly.
How about it?
Interesting enough?
Don't even think about defaulting on your debts, our Chu State has the most professional debt collection army in the Central Plains...
