Chapter 32

It really responded to the old saying that the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and as Li Jinglong led people into the castle, the host and guest between the two sides shifted, and they returned to the previous confrontation.

Xu Hao ordered the wall to clear the wilderness, continued to starve the other party, and continuously sent people around to intercept the opponent's supply convoy, and gained a lot. And Li Jinglong ordered to defend to the death, and the most regrettable thing was that Zhang De did not take the opportunity to catch Zhu Gaochi.

Towards the end of the evening, it rained heavily, and the rain was very heavy, and Li Jinglong was horrified to find that the castle was gradually collapsing due to the rain. In the end, Li Jinglong made a quick decision and led the remnants of the defeated generals to take advantage of the rainy night to escape from the trail.

didn't want to meet the main force of the Xu family halfway, after a chaotic group fight, Li Jinglong's side had the upper hand slightly, and finally Xu Hao proposed that the two sides stop fighting and make peace, and Li Jinglong gladly accepted it.

On the green mountain, after receiving the latest news, the old man snorted coldly: "Anticlimactic." ”

Zhu Di said with a smile: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is deliberate, otherwise, with Xu Hao's cleverness, even if Li Jinglong's entire army is annihilated, it is not difficult. However, in this way, the Liangzi of both sides became bigger, and almost offended the nobles of the whole capital. ”

"This son is cunning and changeable, and he is by no means a loyal person." The old man's eyes were deep, and he sighed softly.

"Father-in-law is serious." Zhu Di smiled and picked up the chess pieces to generalize the army, "I think that among all the grandchildren of the Xu family, Xu Hao is the most like you when you were young." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then scolded with a smile: "You don't need to scold Huai in a roundabout way, the old man was forced to deal with the Yuan army who was wronged back then, how can that kid be compared with the old man?" ”

In the courtyard of Xufu, the brothers who felt that they had fallen short scattered unhappily, Xu Hao and Zhu Gaochi looked at each other and smiled, and walked towards the courtyard side by side.

"It's hard to be a brother and understand the difficulty of being a brother." Zhu Gaochi looked sincere, "My father and son are in a foreign domain, and they are trembling every day like walking on thin ice, even if it is a random little person in the capital, they can't afford to offend at all." ”

Xu Hao felt a little funny, at least when Zhu Yuanzhang was alive, this should be said the other way around, right? Who doesn't know that Zhu Yuanzhang is the best for his family, especially his sons.

However, he also has some emotion, successful people must have success, with the power of Yan Wangfu to control 100,000 elites, they are all concerned about the smallest details, they should be good at learning, no wonder Yan Wangfu was able to win the world later.

Xu Hao is not an ignorant young man, so when Zhu Gaochi hinted slightly, he deliberately let Li Jinglong go, anyway, it was everyone who contributed money and effort.

"I should be thanked, thank my brother for his generosity in giving out five hundred taels of gold."

"It's just something outside of the body."

After talking for a while, the two said goodbye to each other, Xu Hao was tired for a day, returned to his residence and didn't even eat, and went to bed to rest after a hurried bath, without saying anything all night.

Early the next morning, Xu Hao got up and exercised first, and then had breakfast, and when he was idle, he walked alone in the garden. Turning a rockery and passing through a corner gate, I saw a group of girls in the distance on the Baihua Pavilion, in front of the tea vine trellis, leaning on the Taihu Lake stone to compose poems.

Xu Hao thought it was funny, stopped and watched, and then the girls dispersed, some left together, some chased the warbler under the tree, some fluttered pink butterflies in the flowers, some played on the swing, and some picked flowers and planted sideburns.

After admiring the various delicate postures of the girls, Xu Hao didn't want to be mistaken for a pervert, so he walked around the Baihua Pavilion and walked forward. Stepping on the paved road with small stones, the powder wall in front is half-built, the high willow slope eaves, the people have not yet arrived, and a burst of blue musk is blowing in the nose, which is much stronger than the scenery of their own house.

Xu Hao thought about waiting for the money, and so corrupt to build a Jiangnan garden, the best place to choose is in Suzhou and Hangzhou, away from the rights and wrongs in the future capital Beijing, the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, the best place for self-cultivation.

Walking into this garden, there is a great feeling of the cave sky immediately, pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water; The flower garden is full of all kinds of flowers, no wonder the fragrance of flowers strikes people, there is a quaint stone arch bridge not far away, Xu Hao while watching the koi under the water, while slowly walking to the west side of the bridge.

In the exquisite attic, their sisters are talking and laughing. Hey, how come there are a few who don't recognize them? Xu Hao didn't know about the arrival of the county lord of Pucheng, and hesitated whether to go upstairs.

I can see the second sister Xu Cuitao slowly chanting with her hands behind her back, bowing her head to conceive poems; The eldest sister sat at the table and grabbed the pen and book, pointing and fingering; Suddenly, a figure wearing a Su Luo shirt fell into his eyes, and Xu Hao's eyes lit up.

What a beautiful and refined jade man, Xu Hao secretly praised in his heart, remembering a sentence he had read a few days ago, which was the most appropriate to describe the other party at this moment.

"The shadow of the white Luo shirt is nothing more than weaving spring thoughts; The black bun clouds are always natural pictures. The body is light, the posture is hundreds of neat, and the words are better than flowers; Pink makeup and jade, the water and moon Guanyin outside the world, are more fragrant than jade and jade.

The beauty is like poetry, as if half of the peach paper is opened, and a spot tube is waved. Mobin came in the rain, and the wrist ghost drove the dragon to fly in an instant. ”

Compared with his cousin, who is beautiful and fragrant, he is less gorgeous and more elegant, and he can be said to be good at winning. When it comes to everyone's liking words, Xu Hao is more inclined to the one in front of him.

He looked up like this for a long time, and was already noticed by the girls upstairs, Cui Tao leaned out and beckoned to him: "Come up." ”

In the small building, Xu Cuiliu explained to Zhu Qiaoqiao and others: "Third brother, he is the manager of the Poetry Society. ”

Xu Qinglian also raised her head and said with a smile: "That's my compatriot brother Xu Hao, who has not yet reached the weak crown, everyone is not an outsider, it doesn't hurt to meet." ”

"Xu Hao?" Zhu Qiaoqiao said with interest: "Is that the one who said that he couldn't make poems that day?" I heard that he commanded the battle yesterday and had a draw with Cao Guogong, it seems that his literary style is average, and his art of war is not bad. ”

Miss Mu, who had been silent, heard the words, her eyes were shining, and she subconsciously looked towards the stairs, and it happened that Xu Hao came up, and the eyes of the two met each other.

Miss Mu nodded generously, and then looked away gently, Xu Hao smiled silently, walked to the eldest sister's side, and said with a smile: "I don't know that the poetry club has been opened, and members have been added, my steward is derelict in my duties." ”

Xu Qinglian was not good at giving her younger brother a detailed description of her daughter's family, and said vaguely: "This is Miss Zhu, the county lord of Pucheng, and this is Miss Mu, the county lord of the Qianguo family." ”

"County Lord, surnamed Mu?" Xu Hao suddenly understood, when he chatted with Zhu Gaochi about Li Jinglong yesterday, he talked about Li Jinglong's father Li Wenzhong was Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew and later thought that the history of the righteous son, this Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife also had a very favorite son Zhu Ying, and later gave the surname Mu, which is the meaning of bathing the emperor's grace, and has been guarding Yunnan, last year because the prince died of illness and heartbroken, and died three months later.

By the way, isn't that the Yunnan Wang Mu family in the novel? Wei Xiaobao can trick into marrying a little princess of the Mu family, what about me?

Xu Hao's eyes were clear, and he nodded towards the two girls with a calm expression. Reality is reality, fiction is fiction, and he hasn't been narcissistic to the point of whimsy.

Zhu Qiaoqiao asked with a smile: "I heard that Brother Hao made Cao Guogong suffer a lot yesterday, which makes me admire it in my heart." ”

"Don't dare to be." Xu Hao looked modest, "That's all the credit of my brothers, I'm just joining in the fun, in fact, I can't even read the military book." ”

"Really?" Zhu Qiaoqiao became more and more interested, "Whose credit is it?" ”

"Well, some of the strategies are from my eldest brother, and some are my second brother's ideas." Xu Hao is not stupid, before figuring out who this future sister-in-law is going to marry, he can't talk nonsense.

At this moment, the brothers Xu Wen and Xu Ji walked up with a smile, and saw that Zhu Qiaoqiao's expression immediately changed, becoming dignified and indifferent, and he was no longer amiable when facing Xu Hao.

The more this is the case, the more interesting it is, Xu Hao, like a sister, the fire of gossip began to burn, and they all secretly looked at the ambiguous triangular relationship between the three of them, guessing who the county lord would end up with.

Suddenly, Xu Hao frowned, looked at Miss Mu who was sitting in front of the window like a picture, and secretly said that she would appear here? Is it also for marriage?

As soon as he thought of this, Xu Hao felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
