The sound of the piano came from the attic, the raindrops hung on the eaves like a crystal bead curtain, Gongsun Zhi took off the wet clothes of the outer cover, walked up to the small building, pushed the door and entered this simple and straight room, a plain white woman who was still serving filial piety sat in front of the window, the green white fingertips gently stroked the strings, and the figure who came in the afterglow was seen in the afterglow, slightly sideways face, and smiled gently at him.

Gongsun Zhi didn't bother her, sat down straight after a few cases, poured wine and listened quietly.

The room seemed quiet, the sound of rain and the sound of the piano gathered together, not noisy, but made people feel quiet in the bottom of their hearts, occasionally the sound of cheers came in from outside, disrupting the quiet atmosphere, the stroking fingers stopped, gently pressed the trembling strings, pursed his lips and smiled: "Too happy...... I can't even play the song well. ”

Her voice was slightly hoarse, during this period of time, because of the death of her father, she was overly sad, and she would wake up crying every time she fell asleep, nearly two months, and people lost a lot of weight, and then the two sat together and talked for a while, and asked about the situation in Youzhou, whether Gongsun Zhi was injured or not, and from time to time a woman in the building came over and said that there was a leader outside looking for Gongsun Zhi, and after sending away two times, Cai Yan got off his lap and pulled up the man who didn't want to leave and pushed him out of the door.

"The chiefs come here from time to time, and there must be something important, I ...... I'm not going to run. ”

Vaguely, I heard the red-faced woman whispering this when the door was closed.

He smiled and walked down the attic, the eunuch Jian Shuo trotted up and held up the paper umbrella, Dongfang Sheng and Gao Sheng were already waiting in the rain over there, Gongsun Zhi nodded at them, and beckoned them to go to the main hall of the cottage together, all the leaders in it have already come, although these people are not very bright in this era of stars and clouds, but after all, they are the most core subordinates under his Gongsun Zhi at the moment, Gao Sheng, Dongfang Sheng, Cao Chun, Yan Rou, Zhao Zhao, Pan Feng and Huaxiong who have not yet rushed back.

The door was open, the bronze tripod in the hall lit a flame to drive away the cold, Gongsun Zhilongting walked through the middle, handed over the cloak to the eunuch, and sat down towards the first chair with a tiger skin above.

With his legs spread apart, one hand propped on his knees, and he spoke for business: "I'm far away in Youzhou, and the news here is not timely, how are Yuan Shao and Zhang Yan fighting now?" ”

"Hui Yu leader, before Zhang Yan had the advantage, he let Yu Poison of Lugushan sneak attack Yecheng, Yuan Shao's army almost collapsed, but last month, Yuan Jun abandoned Yecheng's Montenegrin army and directly attacked Montenegro, forcing more than ten troops and horses in the city such as Yu Poison to withdraw and rescue, and they were defeated halfway...... Dongfang Sheng stood up and told the information he had spied out.

Here, Gongsun Zhi waved his hand to interrupt: "What is the result?" ”

"The defeat of Zhang Yan in Montenegro is unknown."

The autumn rain continued, and everyone in the hall spoke one after another, saying some opinions, Cao Chunmo rubbed his rough beard, glared and said: "Yuan Shao is based in Jizhou, although the soldiers and horses are not as good, but it is not that there are no generals who can fight habitually, plus the local wealth, Zhang Yan and his group may take advantage of it for a while, but the defeat is already doomed, the leader can't add to this guy, it is better to control him directly and pull away the people of Montenegro." ”

Although Zhang Yan of Montenegro was pulled into the quagmire, it is also one of their barriers at present, if hundreds of thousands of people in Montenegro cannot be moved, then the war induced before will basically fail, and everyone will naturally not be willing to accept such a result.

"Moving hundreds of thousands of people is not as simple as hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep, as long as Zhang Yan doesn't nod, those people will definitely not leave, and Zhang Yan has lost the battle, and the soldiers and horses in his hands are better than ours, plus the terrain in the mountains, our cavalry has no advantage at all."

"It's better to send charcoal in the snow, let Zhang Yan be grateful to the leader, and then tell the other party that Yuan Shao will not give up and force him to make a choice!"

"Who would be so stupid to be fooled a second time."

The figures on both sides of the hall are probably a good thing, and many of them have their own opinions and opinions after they are literate. Gongsun Zhi did not interrupt their deliberations again, and listened quietly, and soon after, the hour was already in the afternoon, and the rain outside showed no signs of stopping.

Outside the court, a wolf rider walked in quickly, crossed the threshold and stood at the door: "Chief, Leader Hua has led them back, and they have brought back a number of soldiers and horses of tens of thousands of people." ”

"I ......" Gao Shengmeng stood up, touched his bald head with his big hand, and his eyes were huge: "How many soldiers and horses did Huaxiong pull back?" ”

“…… I don't know ...... But no less than twenty or thirty thousand......" The wolf rider stuttered a little at him.

As he spoke, a loud voice rang out outside.

"Chief!"

"I'm Hua Xiong back—"

The three figures strode over majestically with the package, and handed over the weapon to the guard at the door, and the bearded man threw the package in his hand to the ground and arched his hand: "Xiong is fortunate not to be dishonored, and brought back Wang Yun's old guy's head." ”

"That's the ...... I killed," Han Long reminded in a whisper.

When Hua Xiong said 'go' to him twice, Gao Sheng strode out and stretched out his head to look outside: "What about the tens of thousands of people you brought back?" ”

"What are you anxious about!" Hua Xiong glared at him, and then looked at the first seated figure: "The army is still walking in the mountains, nearly 40,000 people are walking too slowly, I and these two stubborn donkeys came back first to report the news, by the way, it is Xu Rong who leads the troops in the army, huh...... and Li Ru. ”

"Li Ru, Li Wenyou?!" Cao Chunho stood up suddenly, "Dong Zhuo is dead, he is not dead?" ”

Gongsun Zhi raised his arm, and the people below immediately stopped their voices, he stood up and swept his gaze over everyone: "I know that some of you don't have a good impression of Li Ru, but since the other party is willing to come, I dare to accept it, we even slaughtered Liu Yu, how can we not even dare to leave a homeless person, and say that it is embarrassing!" That's all for this matter, it's getting dark, get out quickly, go home and hug your mother-in-law to warm the bed, and be careful to let other men climb into bed. ”

Everyone was rude, but they also ate this set the most, laughing and saying goodbye, leaving the matter of Li Ru behind them a long time ago. After everyone left, Gongsun Zhi picked up the head and whispered to Dongfang Sheng who stayed: "That person come here, watch closely, I don't worry." ”

The latter nodded in agreement.

After telling the soldiers and horses about what they needed to pay attention to after they came, it was already dark, and he took Jian Shuo and Li Ke to the back hall, the innermost room, the mourning hall had not yet been removed, the brazier was flickering with sparks, Cai Yan stood there in filial piety clothes, obviously knowing that the enemy's head had been brought.

She didn't cry.

Just quietly watched the pickled head placed in front of his father's spiritual seat, motionless, Jian Shuo wanted to speak and stopped, wanting to step forward to persuade, but Gongsun Zhi and Li Ke waved down together, and he stood with the woman behind him for two hours.

The birthday candle flickered, the figure on the wall moved, slowly turned around, Cai Yan's eyes were wet and red, and he walked over slowly, suddenly reached out to hold Gongsun Zhi's hand, smiled with tears, and reached out to wipe it, "Let's go back...... My father's revenge has been avenged...... Yan is not sad anymore. ”

After saying for a while, the two of them walked outside hand in hand, towards the attic in the distance, the rain was still falling, the slightest coolness fell on the two of them, quite comfortable, the road met the patrol guards, the woman retreated and wanted to let go of her hand, but was grabbed by Gongsun Zhi in turn, the guards who came over there saw the two people holding hands here, hurriedly turned their backs together, facing inside, Cai Yan was a little embarrassed to shy chuckle, slightly happy, and swept the sad brows on his face before.

Back in the attic and into the room, Gongsun Zhi originally told her to sleep as before, and then prepared to leave.

"Gongsun, are you willing to marry me?" The voice behind him trembled slightly.

In the warm yellow room, Gongsun Zhi turned around, looked at the woman in front of the bed with some surprise, opened his mouth slightly, and then laughed: "You are the mother-in-law who was robbed by me." ”

Cai Yan wiped his tears, and a sweet smile appeared on his face, "Then you turn around and don't look at me." ”

Turn around...... Gongsun Zhi glanced at her suspiciously, turned around slowly, and the woman behind her said in a very soft voice, trembling slightly: "...... Actually, when you robbed me that day, I hated you...... But there are some things that you are right, marrying someone you don't like, it will be very painful, that day...... You robbed it because you liked me...... You can see the look in your eyes......"

There was a rustling sound, the sound of a dress falling to the ground, and the cabinet opening and closing......

"When I got to the grassland, I thought you were a horse thief, cruel and murderous...... It's still very domineering, but I see dense wounds on your body...... Seeing you save your compatriots from the hands of the Xianbei people...... When I saw you quietly hiding and crying for the death of a dozen old people that day, I fell in love with you......"

Knowing that Suosuo's sound stopped, Gongsun Zhi heard her words, his face was a little moved, and he listened to the woman's voice behind him call gently.

"Husband...... You turn around. ”

The fingers of the woman's hands in a big red dress and red embroidered shoes were nervously twisted together, sitting on the edge of the bed, the previous plain white dress was taken off to the ground, seeing Gongsun Zhi's gaze, she blinked her eyelashes, lowered her head slightly, and her cheeks flushed.

"I ...... I know that my husband has not touched Akihime, and I just want to make me willing to become your woman one day, and Akihime is grateful to you............ I know...... I married once, but my body is innocent...... Now the concubine is willing to be your ...... physically and mentally Woman, I will give you my body innocently. ”

In the dim room, the man didn't know what to say, looked at her for a long time, walked over and hugged the woman horizontally, the other party's body trembled slightly in his arms, closed his eyes slightly, felt the stripping of his dress, felt the clammy and cold of the air, his delicate skin felt the clammy and cold of the air, his chest was exposed, trembling in the shaking, his face was already full of redness, he tightened his legs nervously, and his white slender feet arched up and rubbed on the futon, making a shy moan.

In the warm yellow room, the lights are blown out, the autumn rain is ticking outside the window, and the indescribable moan. Moaning in this rainy night.
