Empress Mi Benji

Chapter 57

After leaving the palace, Zhuang Xun didn't wake up, he always felt that he was dreaming, until he was poked in the waist by Li Rusi, and then the soreness all over his body broke out, Zhuang Xun cried out in pain.

"Miss Li, what are you doing?" Zhuang Xun jumped violently, and then sat down on the ground because of the pain.

"Xiaolian, no, isn't it very smooth for you to be appointed as an official? The father-in-law who sent you back is all smiling, why do you still look like you've lost your mind!" Li Rusi asked curiously, stretching out her hand to hold Zhuang Xun pull up.

"It's not that I lost my mind, but it's unbelievable. The pie fell from the sky suddenly, and I don't know how to deal with it." Zhuang Xun stood up, sat down again, and rubbed his sore thigh.

The emperor was like his own father, sending money and food. If Zhuang Xun was not absolutely sure that he was wearing it, he would have thought he was the emperor's illegitimate son.

"What's going on? You were awarded an extra reward by King Yu?" Li Rusi asked curiously.

"It's about the same. The favor is too grand, and I don't know how to deal with it." Zhuang Xun slowly talked about his conversation with the emperor, wanting someone to share this surprise with him.

Yes, not joy, but surprise.

Because of an ideal goal, he was directly supported by the emperor and gave money to others. Who knows, he wondered if there was any pit waiting for him.

"Isn't this very good? He gave military power, money and food, and even promised to be promoted." Li Rusi looked at Zhuang Xun, which also meant looking at the illegitimate son of King Yu.

"No, if it were you, wouldn't you feel panic?" Zhuang Xun has a hard time describing how he feels now, because he has been taught that free things are the most expensive, but this lunch is really free, and then he hesitated up.

"What are you panicking about? I stepped on this kind of trap even if there was a trap. Three thousand armored soldiers, and money and food, are enough for Jiedu to govern the imperial side. Did Jiedu intend to show off? It's a pity that Ru Si is a woman. Wrong person."

Li Rusi smiled and said that what she said was indeed reasonable, such a big meal, even if it was a pit, would be stepped on.

"To celebrate Jiedu's appointment, the little girl has prepared some food, please don't be disgusted with Jiedu." He invited Zhuang Xun with a light smile.

"It's an honor." She didn't say continue training, which was great.

Standing up together, Zhuang Xun collapsed again, his legs were so soft, so soft.

"It's Jiedu trying to be brave. If you can't persist, then don't persist. Exercising now has no effect, but instead damages Jiedu's body." Seeing Zhuang Xun's funny look, Li Rusi blamed him.

"..." Can Zhuang Xun say that he is obedient in his hometown?

Treating Li Rusi as an instructor and teacher, he dared not stop unless the other party called to stop.

"Ru Si, come and help you." He helped Zhuang Xun up from the chair.

With Zhuang Xun on her arm, he stood up and limped to the restaurant.

Seeing Huang Xi's shocked gaze, he suddenly realized whether he was getting too close to Li Rusi, she was still unmarried.

In order to avoid embarrassment, he didn't speak, and took two more steps to the seat next to Huang Xi, and then sat down comfortably, as if this incident had never happened.

"Are these Miss Li's handicrafts? It's amazing." When the lid was lifted, plates of delicacies with all colors, flavors and flavors were revealed in front of Zhuang Xun.

"Sweet and sour pork ribs, this is Ru Si's favorite work." He took the initiative to put a piece of ribs in Zhuang Xun's bowl.

"Thank you, Miss Li." Zhuang Xun said gratefully.

The ribs are delicious, but Zhuang Xun's thoughts are not on the ribs.

Looking at the smiling Li Rusi, a bold guess came to mind.

She can't really be interested in me.

Why!
Why does she have a crush on me?

Zhuang Xun doubted his self-knowledge.

Biting the tenderloin, Zhuang Xun felt that he was thinking too much. The other party might be a little more enthusiastic, seeing that his body was softening and taking care of himself.

Don't think about why she likes me. In terms of status, she is the daughter of General Cheng Guo, and she barely became a local official.

In terms of ability, I still know how much I own. Not to mention that the opponent's martial arts are still outstanding, it is really too bold for me to have such an idea.

The most important thing is that I am a married man. Everyone in the world only knows that I love my ugly wife, and the other party knows it too, so it can basically be identified as pure concern.

"Miss Li's cooking skills are really good. If I have a chance, I would like to ask Miss Li to show me the secret of Lanzhi's sweet and sour pork ribs. Lanzhi's dishes are also delicious, but the taste of sweet and sour pork ribs is really not as good as Miss Li's." Zhuang Xun complimented politely He said that deliberately pulling out Si Qin Mi meant to remind Li Rusi, although he didn't think the other party would like him.

Maybe it's the same as what Si Qinmi said, I have some good feelings, probably because of the four virtues I praised Si Qinmi at the banquet, otherwise I wouldn't remind myself to stay, and I wouldn't come to save myself.

But don't take other people's goodwill as love, it will appear impolite, and the most fearful thing is that people think too much.

"Jiedu is well-known. If you like it, eat more. It's a happy event that Jiedu is appointed as an official today. As long as Jiedu eats happily." Put another piece of pork ribs into Zhuang Xun's bowl.

From Li Rusi's point of view, Zhuang Xun is clumsy, but honest. With Huang Xi as a reference, she finds that Zhuang Xun respects her own martial arts and does not alienate herself, and she feels an indescribable joy.

Almost everyone has a critical attitude towards her martial arts, only Zhuang Xun has an attitude of admiration or even admiration. This attitude does not come from deliberate flattery. .

The only bad and good thing is that Zhuang Xun really likes his ugly wife, and she doesn't know how to do it.

She is a decisive person. If she has something good, she will not hesitate to grab it. She has no moral burden. This is what her elder sister taught her, seize the opportunity.

Zhuang Xun's loyalty to feelings is also something she likes, but when she herself is an outsider, she doesn't know how to overcome this high wall.

It's really great that Zhuang Xun took the initiative to come to her for exercise. Seeing Zhuang Xun's limp look, she was funny but also very distressed, but it was also a chance to get along with Zhuang Xun.

Originally, I wanted to find an excuse to give him a massage today and get close to him, but I didn't expect that the imperial palace would come early in the morning to confiscate the imperial edict.

After eating, he thanked Li Rusi for his hospitality. Since Zhuang Xun noticed the impoliteness, he would not let Li Rusi help him.

"Brother Huang, help me, let's go back and rest." Zhuang Xun leaned on Huang Xi.

"Jiedu, cultivate yourself today, and don't forget to continue practicing martial arts tomorrow. You need to persevere in practicing martial arts." Li Rusi reminded that she didn't come to grab Huang Xi's job, so don't be impatient.

"Xun knows, and will definitely persist." Zhuang Xun's face suddenly became bitter, and he wanted to go to Hebei Road.

Fear of difficulties, how can he have a firm mind.

Huang Xi helped Zhuang Xun back to the guest room.

"Sir, you don't really want to marry this Miss Li, do you?" Fu Zhuangxun was lying on the bed, Huang Xi asked in a low voice, showing a worried expression.

"Huh? What are you thinking? I have a wife, and I'm innocent with Miss Li." Lying on the bed, Zhuang Xun felt that his lumbar spine was much more comfortable.

If you don't exercise regularly, you can't bear the aftereffects of intense exercise.

"You are relying on others, sir, this woman really cannot marry, you can't beat her, she can crush you to death with one hand." Huang Xi advised, in a patriarchal world, Li Rusi It's shrews, the aesthetics of this world, women should be delicate and cute, no, sexy and charming are fine, no one dares to marry shrews.

"First, I don't think she can pinch me to death with one hand as a reason for not marrying her. Second, I really don't have any thoughts about her. I love my wife and don't want to change my mind. Third, don't you think this kind of female Is the hero handsome?" Zhuang Xun explained repeatedly, of course he respected Li Rusi more, the kind of little fanboy, even though he was older than Li Rusi.

"I don't think so, I just think it's terrible. She's a woman who kills people without blinking an eye, how can her husband sleep." Huang Xi trembled, representing everyone's general opinion.

"Forget it, let's not discuss this matter, martial arts is really hard." Zhuang Xun rubbed his thigh and said, remembering that he would have to squat tomorrow, he felt afraid.

"It's also quite happy. I feel that my body has become stronger, and I can fight with one against several. However, there is really no need to practice martial arts for a son of a thousand gold, sir." Huang Xi looked at Zhuang Xun's painful mask and smiled unkindly.

"The main reason is that you can't practice any tricks, so it's better to ask a master to protect you." Huang Xi said harshly.

In his opinion, it is good for Zhuang Xun to be protected. Although martial arts training cannot be said to be done by inferior people, it does not match Zhuang Xun's current status. Now Zhuang Xun is an adjutant.

Zhuang Xun's expression froze, and he had to admit that what Huang Xi said was right, unless he could use his energy like He Heng, he might as well ask someone to protect him.

"Of course, sir, you are trying to get close to Miss Li and win her heart. That's not a problem." Huang Xi joked, winking, if it wasn't for Zhuang Xun's inability to move, he would have given Zhuang Xun a hard hit on the head.

"I said that I wanted to learn from her killing cleanly, do you believe me?" I was defending Li Rusi, and said that I didn't mind Li Rusi's force, and I also learned martial arts from her. It seemed that I really approached Li Rusi on my own initiative. Si's appearance.

"Sir, of course I believe it. There is no need to lie to me, sir. It's just that Ms. Li also hates to marry. It seems that she is not young." Huang Xi reminded Zhuang Xun.

Only then did Zhuang Xun frowned. Li Rusi was indeed quite old. According to the standards of women in this world who marry at the age of 16, Li Rusi looked too old.

"It is rumored that Ms. Li has the ability to fight tigers, and the sons of Chengguo dare not come to the door. Mister doesn't mind her being so brave. Maybe Ms. Li has already secretly agreed with Mr. Huang Xi was a bystander, and expressed his guess. The news he inquired about at the Chengguo Mansion.

"Huh?" Zhuang Xun rubbed his thigh, and suddenly felt that what Huang Xi said was quite reasonable.

"I'm a married man, probably not." Si Qinmi also said, Huang Xi also said, Zhuang Xun could also sense Li Rusi's friendliness towards him, he was a little uncertain about his self-knowledge.

But I have the last line of defense, I am married, Li Rusi, a big girl, can't do anything to me who is married.

The next day, he was much better. Li Rusi didn't ask him to squat anymore, but let him carry the bucket, which tortured his legs before, but now his arms.

Holding the bucket, Zhuang Xun looked forward to the end of the war quickly so that he could leave the Chengguo Mansion, but he didn't expect the war to end so quickly.

On the third day, I felt that my arm was going to be useless, thinking about what else to do, and regretting again why I suddenly had the idea of ​​wanting to practice martial arts.

It's just that he hadn't gone to the training ground yet, and when he left the guest room, he saw Li Rusi who was worried.

"Miss Li, what's the matter." Zhuang Xun took the initiative to ask, why did Li Rusi become like this, and she still smiled gently yesterday.

"The Chengyu coalition army was defeated in the battle with the You army." Li Rusi said a shocking news.

"What, General Li is defeated?" Zhuang Xun was stunned and said in disbelief, a sentence flashed in his mind: Yu country is about to end.

"Well, the battle has been defeated, and the fate of father and younger brother is uncertain. Jiedu should also pack up and prepare to flee. Ru Si will prepare a frame for you. You and the rest of the mansion will go to Chengguo together." Li Ruru Si said sadly that Zhuang Xun had already been arranged for a way out, and now he was coming to inform him.

"Miss Li, you're not going to look for General Li and Young Master Li, are you?" Zhuang Xun guessed, because what Li Rusi said just now took him out.

"..." Li Rusi didn't speak, Zhuang Xun guessed it right.

"The war is in turmoil, Miss Li will go to Chengguo with me." Zhuang Xun said to dissuade Li Rusi.

"..." Li Rusi still didn't speak, but tightly held the handkerchief in her hand, really worried about the life and death of her father and younger brother.

"Don't look at you, you are very powerful. People in the army are very weak, and you are a woman, so it is really dangerous." Zhuang Xun said worriedly, not wanting Li Rusi to take risks.

"But father and younger brother..."

"If you're alive, you'll be alive. If you're dead, can't you collect their corpses? You don't expect you to save General Li and Young Master Li just like you saved me." Zhuang Xun said straightforwardly.

"Why is Jiedu so ruthless? The life and death of father and younger brother are uncertain. You let Ru Si run away with you. What about Ru Si's father and brother?" It was obvious that Li Rusi became flustered and her words were not polite.

Li Rusi, who didn't change her face in the face of a dozen thieves, even panicked at times, probably because of concern.

"It's none of your business what to do. This place is far away from the front line. Going to them now is just like what my wife said. If you go to them, they will go to you. It will only increase your troubles. It's better to find a safe place. Wait for their news." Zhuang Xun didn't care about Li Rusi's bad attitude, and gave further examples to persuade him.

"You don't need to persuade me, I must go to my father and brother." Li Rusi was anxious now, wishing to fly to the front line.

"Don't go." Seeing that Li Rusi couldn't be persuaded, Zhuang Xun anxiously grabbed Li Rusi's wrist and said forcefully.

"You! Let go!" Li Rusi didn't expect Zhuang Xun to grab her wrist all of a sudden.

He was also caught before, hiding in the palace, stealing the eunuch's vendetta, there is a similar approach but the same effect.

"Don't go, it's dangerous!" Zhuang Xun clenched Bai Nen's smooth wrist. He knew that Li Rusi was powerful, but she wasn't a god, so how could she keep her life alive in a rebellious army.

"You, you..." Ordinary people might have beaten Li Rusi, but Zhuang Xun was not an ordinary person.

"Promise me, don't go, or I won't let go, even if I'm killed!" Zhuang Xun suddenly realized that the impulsive grab had a miraculous effect, so he threatened.
