my wife is wonderful

Chapter 273 Night Breeze

Even the man himself didn't know how long he sat like this. Although he seemed to be in a daze, he knew very clearly in his heart that it was time to go back. Maybe this was his fate.

Just when he stood up and was about to go back, he heard the sound of slight footsteps behind him. He frowned and turned around, only to see a person slowly walking out from the other side of the tree.

"Master Geng!"

The man bowed his hands to Geng Shulou in a respectful manner.

Geng Shulou narrowed his eyes, "You are..."

"I'm Wan Sa." Wan Sa cupped his hand again, "I've met Lord Geng."

In the past two years, Geng Shulou was promoted from the eighth-grade captain to the sixth-grade hundred households in Canghan Guard Qianhu Station. This was not as easy as he originally thought.

Not long after arriving at Canghan Guard, he understood that there was no such thing as temporary dormancy and no future reuse. If he wanted to be promoted or return to Ningdu City, he could only rely on himself.

So although he cherished his life, he still relied on his quick reactions and fearless drive in several small battles to rise to his current position step by step. He thought that given time, he would return to Ningdu City, and It's a return home in fine clothes.

Therefore, at the beginning, the Zhenyao army arrived in Cangcheng in time to rescue him and solved the dilemma in Cangcheng. Then with the two battles, the defeat of the Yaomu army was determined. At that time, he was excited, excited and proud, and he had a fighting spirit. High-spirited and high-spirited.

He even envisioned the scene when the news of victory reached Ningdu City, and the Emperor was overjoyed and showered him with awards. The bright yellow holy grail slowly unfolded above his head, and with the high-pitched voice of the eunuch, a personal name was added and the award was announced to the kneeling crowd. In the ears of the soldiers, there must be three words "Geng Shulou" among them.

It's just that this longing is like a dream, rising up quickly and shattering even faster.

The Zhenyao army did what he thought. Not only did they beat Yaomu's army to a pulp, but they also scared them into fleeing in panic, all the way back to Gaofeng City, which is adjacent to Yaomu and Daning.

But at the same time, or perhaps earlier than this, something happened to Ningdu City, which he had always considered to be the most stable city in Daning.

King Shen, who had previously regarded him as a confidant, became an abandoned son when he was exiled by an imperial edict to Cangcheng, a bitter cold land with rustling wind and long yellow sand.

Perhaps he was not as important as he thought in the beginning. King Shen used him, but he was favored by the eldest prince, King Li, and he was the brother of King Ping's concubine.

He couldn't tell whether King Shen had anything to do with him, but King Shen turned against him!

"Master Geng?"

Seeing that Wan Sha had just shouted once, Geng Shulou fell into his own thoughts and couldn't help shouting again.

Geng Shulou came back to his senses and glanced at Wan Sha with a cold expression, "What do you want from me?"

"I'm not looking for you, it's the Third Young Master who's looking for you. It's just that you turn around and leave every time you see him, so... the Third Young Master asked me to tell you."

Wan Sa looked at Geng Shulou and said honestly.

Geng Shulou twitched his lips and said, "Who is the third young master of his family? The Dingguo Palace is already finished. Wu Qiyao, the third young master of the Dingguo Palace, has not become a prisoner yet. That is because General Zhu is busy with affairs and has not taken care of him for the time being. How long do you think he can be free? I advise you to stay away from him, lest you fight to the death and end up being implicated and losing your life instead of dying in the battlefield. "

His words were both sarcastic and seemed to contain advice.

Wan Sha smiled bitterly, "Master Geng, I have no choice but to do so. My sister is still in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. When the sentence is passed, the lightest sentence will be an exile. She is weak and cannot bear the pain. Since the Third Young Master said that he would surrender, Prince Ping can save her, no matter what, I will try."

He said, looking at Geng Shulou sincerely, "Actually, I don't understand Master Geng's thoughts. As far as I know, Master Geng's sister is the concubine of Prince Ping, and she is pregnant. Now Prince Li After being imprisoned and King Shen died, His Highness Prince Ping was the person most likely to ascend to that position. With Lord Geng's relationship with His Highness Prince Ping, he would definitely rise to prominence in the future.

So I don’t understand why Mr. Geng has always been stubborn. Such actions will not only anger His Royal Highness Prince Ping, but also affect the future of your sister and your future nephew. "

Geng Shulou sneered, "It seems that a concubine is a concubine, and you really can't be regarded as the brother-in-law of the Third Young Master Wu."

These words really didn't sound good. Even though he knew that he came here to persuade Geng Shulou, Wan Sha still couldn't help but clenched his fist.

Geng Shulou saw it and gave him a sideways look, "I said you are not Wu Qiyao's brother-in-law, that's because he doesn't regard you as one of his own at all. Don't you know that the concubine in Prince Ping's Mansion is not my relative at all? Sister, my biological sister is actually the second daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo. Oh, by the way, she seems to have married into the Duke of Dingguo not long ago and became the grandson’s wife of the Duke of Ding. She is also your sister’s sister-in-law. No. , your sister is just the concubine of Mr. Wu, she cannot call her sister-in-law, she can only be called eldest young lady. "

Although Wan Sha was still angry, he was thinking about Geng Shulou's words in his heart. When he heard that the second girl from Zhenguo Gong was Geng Shulou's biological sister, his eyes lit up and he suddenly thought of something.

"Second girl Zhu, your name is Zhu Ni, right?"

Geng Shulou glanced at him and said, "Probably."

His mother wrote in a letter saying that she was his biological sister and that she looked like the rest of their family and had a similar temperament. She also said that during the years she had been in the Zhenguo Palace, she was not allowed to be in the Zhenguo Palace because she did not look like a member of the Zhenguo Palace. They were loved by the couple and the second master of the Zhu family, and they were treated coldly.

His words were full of love for his biological daughter, and they also implicitly hinted that he should cherish this biological sister, not the fake sister who occupied the magpie's nest.

Although his grandfather also mentioned this matter in his letter, his point of view was different from that of his mother. He also understood what his grandfather meant. It was nothing more than acting on camera. If King Ping became powerful, then he would love the man who had lived in Anping since he was a child. The sister of the uncle has nothing to do with blood, and long-term relationship is the most important; but if King Shen wins the approval of Emperor Shengning and all the courtiers, becomes the crown prince of Daning, and even finally ascends to the throne of God, then he will have to confirm the fact and claim his biological child. Girls are always better than outsiders.

At the moment, it seems that if he follows his grandfather's wishes, he should choose the first option.

After all, King Shen is dead, and Zhu Ni, who married into King Shen's maternal ancestral family, is now most likely to be imprisoned in the Penal Department Prison like other female members of the Wu family.

Could it be that he was about to compromise with Prince Ping?

The person who single-handedly broke his dream when he was about to enter the Chunwei examination room and get a perfect ending for his more than ten years of hard study. Why should he compromise with such a stupid and short-sighted person? .

The sky was getting darker and colder, and not a single star was visible in the sky. There were noisy sounds from the military camp in the distance, as well as the gurgling sound of the nearby stream.

That’s it, that’s it.

Geng Shulou turned to leave.

"Hey!" Wan Sha couldn't help but pull him. He felt that this man was a little strange. He said well and he didn't offend him, so why did he leave?

When it comes to talking about this half-hearted thing, even without the Third Young Master's instructions, given his temperament, he still has to finish talking, otherwise he may not be able to sleep at night.

Geng Shulou stepped back and avoided Wan Sha's hand. At the same time, he launched an offensive directly towards Wan Sha. Wan Sha was stunned. He didn't expect this man to change his face so quickly. Wasn't it a good conversation just now? Why do you turn your back on someone so quickly?

"Hey, Master Geng, you can't do anything. If we are discovered, both of us will receive military canes."

Wan Sha lowered his voice and said hastily. At the same time, although he did not make a move, he quickly and accurately blocked Geng Shulou's move. Geng Shulou found that he was unable to fight back under Wan Sha. His martial arts skills are far superior to his own.

His face darkened, but he stopped struggling and slowly relaxed his body.

He naturally understood that if he was discovered fighting in the barracks, a slap of the military stick would be enough.

"What do you want to do?" Geng Shulou's voice was hoarse and gloomy in the darkness.

After Geng Shulou's previous experience of leaving at will and turning his back on others, Wan Sa swallowed down some of the foreshadowing words that Wu Qiyao had taught him and simply stated the purpose of his trip.

"Third Young Master heard that Master Geng has a capable man under his command. He is a marksman and is very good with a crossbow. It is said that he can accurately shoot through the heart of a target in the midst of thousands of troops and kill him, so..."

Wan Sha's voice was lowered again, and the whistling cold wind mixed with the sound of dead branches and fallen leaves swept past them, but not a word floated in the wind.

After Wan Sha finished speaking, he looked at Geng Shulou intently, as if he wanted to see a look of fear on his face, but no, Geng Shulou was very calm, as if he had just heard a normal greeting.

"Are you talking about Ma Xiaodou?"

"Yes, that's him."

"Not to mention that Ma Xiaodou may not listen to me. After all, this is a matter of losing his head, and may even involve his family and friends. To say the least, even if he listens to me, he is not as powerful as you said. If he is If we can shoot the designated person in the midst of thousands of troops, then we have already killed General Yao Mu, and how can we let him escape back to Gaofeng City with the remaining defeated soldiers. "

Geng Shulou said lightly, scorning Wan Sha for listening to rumors and exaggerating Ma Xiaodou's strength. (End of chapter)
