The First Great Ancestor of the Five Dynasties

Chapter 31 What a Man

"Ms. Fu is sitting in the garden and has ordered me to invite Commander Chai to come over."

Zhao Pu greeted them in front of the governor's mansion and led Chai Rong and the others to the back garden.

It's autumn, and the colors in the garden are not diminishing. The golden autumn chrysanthemums are in full bloom, the purple peony fruits are just beginning to bear fruit, and there are a few clusters of red and pink roses that are fragrant and faded, which is quite beautiful.

Under a few thin willows by the pond, a small pavilion with four-cornered eaves stands among them.

There was a person sitting in the pavilion, staring at a few lotus flowers showing signs of decay on the surface of the pond, in a daze.

Viewed from the side, she is a graceful and graceful woman with green hair like a waterfall, slender shoulders and slim waist.

Zhao Pu quickly walked into the pavilion and whispered a few words. The woman came back to her senses and stood up to greet her.

Zhu Xiugang was about to bow, but was stunned when he saw the woman's smiling face.

It’s so beautiful!
Her oval face is like a hibiscus, her thin eyebrows are as curved as willow leaves, her almond-shaped eyes are like autumn dew, her nose is like Qiong Yao, and her lips are like red cherry blossoms. The only drawback is that her cheeks, lightly painted with pink and white, are slightly pale, making her look like a delicate and sickly beauty.

She wears a pony top bun with gold hairpins inserted sideways. She wears a green dress with cross-collar narrow sleeves on the upper body and a loose red skirt on the lower body. The skirt is tied on the chest, revealing a red and purple embroidered tube top, and a red ribbon is tied around the waist.

Zhu Xiu's eyes were straight and she swallowed her saliva, classic red and green.
Wearing it on Madam Fu, she looks as beautiful as a fairy.

He has lived in Cangzhou City for several months and has seen Mrs. Fu dozens of times. This is the first time he has seen her take off her armor and change into red clothes.

The heroic and long-legged female general immediately transformed into a tall and beautiful lady.

Zhu Xiu glanced at Chai Rong. As expected, Chai Rong was also a little shocked, with eyes full of surprise.

Hoo~man~
"Zhu Xiu, why are you so dumb?"

Fu Jinzhan saw that Zhu Xiu was halfway done with his bow, half sticking his butt out in a daze, and scolded him angrily.

Zhu Xiu quickly came to her senses, bowed her head and said: "The lady is so dazzling and beautiful today. The students were shocked when they saw her, so she lost her composure and felt ashamed!"

Fu Jinzhan chuckled and rolled his eyes at him with an indescribable charm:

"You are a young man who has just reached the age of tying up your hair. How do you know about the beauty of women? You are pretending to be mature and just learning some flirtatious words. You really deserve a beating!"

Hearing the angry and happy voice made Zhu Xiugu's hair tingle, he laughed dryly and said hurriedly: "Madam, please forgive me! I really think that Madam is as beautiful as the fairy in the painting! If you don't believe it, Madam, please ask me about my handsome teeth! Ya Shuai is a great figure among people, a hero in this world, if he also feels beautiful, it proves that I am not talking nonsense!"

Zhu Xiu took a small step back and winked at Chai Rong.

Fu Jinzhan looked at him with a half-smile.

Embarrassment flashed across Chai Rong's face, he habitually remained serious, his lips quivered and he did not speak.

For those who didn’t know, they thought it was because he didn’t bother talking about a woman’s appearance in public.

Zhu Xiu is as anxious as a cat scratching her head. Brother, please speak up. This is a good opportunity to get closer to Mrs. Fu and get acquainted with her. Don’t dare to cross her!

The atmosphere was silent and awkward for a while.

Zhu Xiu raised her eyes and took a peek, and saw a trace of sweat dripping down Chai Rong's temples!
A man who commanded thousands of troops and had many brave men under his command was actually nervous and timid in front of a stunning beauty!

Chai Rong clasped his fists and lowered his eyelids, his tone was flat and indifferent, and he automatically changed the subject: "I came today to visit Mrs. Fu's injury, and to discuss military affairs. I gave this Liaodong old mountain ginseng to Mrs. Fu, and I wish Mrs. Fu a speedy recovery! "

Zhang Yongde took a step forward and presented the brocade box with both hands.

Fu Jinzhan smiled slightly, pulled his skirt and saluted: "I thank the general." Chai Rong cupped his hands and stepped aside.

Zhao Pu took the gift and left first.

The previous embarrassment was ignored and ignored by everyone.

"I've been lying in bed for days and want to move around more, how about walking and talking with the general myself?" Fu Jinzhan smiled generously.

Chai Rong nodded: "Just follow Mrs. Fu."

Fu Jinzhan glanced at Zhu Xiu: "I am losing energy and blood, and I feel weak from time to time. For the time being, you can act as a servant to support me."

Zhu Xiu was stunned, peeking at Chai Rong's calm face, scratching his bald head and hesitatingly said: "Is this not good? There is a difference between a man and a woman. I'd better find a maid for the eldest lady."

Fu Jinzhan pursed his lips, suppressed a smile and feigned anger: "In terms of age, you are much younger than my brothers at home. What kind of man do you think you are? At a young age, you have complicated thoughts, so you can't get over it!~"

Zhu Xiuman's forehead was covered with black lines, but she didn't dare to refute, so she had to say "Hey" aggrievedly, ran over, and gently supported Fu Jinzhan's raised left arm.

Fu Jinzhan's arms were not as soft as he imagined. Instead, their skin was firm and firm, somewhat muscular.

Zhu Xiu helped her walk along the stone path in the garden, with Chai Rong walking beside her and Zhang Yongde lagging behind.

Fu Jinzhan and Chai Rong talked softly, while Zhu Xiu waited on him carefully, but he listened to every word of their conversation.

Chai Rong first talked about the current situation in Hebei and Cangzhou.

Generally speaking, the chaos in Hebei shows no signs of ending yet. Cangzhou City relied on Tianxiong Army and Black Fire Thunder to successfully repel Yelu Wuyu.

The rest of Jingzhou, Shenzhou, Jizhou and other places are not so lucky.

Jingzhou and Shenzhou have been conquered by the Khitans, with tens of thousands of military and civilian casualties. Jizhou is still under siege by the Khitan army, and the war is equally brutal.

Cangzhou City was preserved, which was unique in the entire Hebei War situation.

Emperor Yelu Deguang of the Liao Dynasty stayed in Zhaozhou, and the main Khitan army gathered in Zhen and Zhaozhou. Liu Zhiyuan personally led the army north to Xingzhou. Generals such as Guo Wei and Fu Yanqing also led their troops to march north. A conference was held around Zhen and Zhao. War seems inevitable.

Zhu Xiu listened carefully and found out that Yelu Deguang stayed in Zhaozhou because of his serious illness, which was completely consistent with history.

Calculating the time, it would only be within a month or two before this guy died of illness.

Yelu Deguang was considered a heroic figure of the Khitan generation, but he was a major source of suffering for the Han people in the Central Plains of Hebei.

He took the Youyun Sixteen States from Shi Jingtang, and took the lead in starting the large-scale war of the Khitans going south to invade the Central Plains Dynasty.

Yelu Deguang had the ambition to take over the Central Plains, and one of his main methods was massacre, massacre of Han people.

The consequence of this was to arouse the people of the entire Hebei Central Plains to resist with all their strength and fight to the death with the Khitans.

So much so that before Yelu Deguang died of illness, he lamented, "I didn't know it was difficult for Chinese people to do this."

Of course, Zhu Xiu hoped that he could burp his fart soon. After he died, the Han people in the Central Plains would have a chance to breathe.

What Zhu Xiu could predict was that once Yelu Deguang died of illness, the Khitans would definitely return north, Hebei would regain peace, and the Liu Han court would take advantage of this opportunity to quickly lay the foundation for rule.

Only then would he have the opportunity to leave Cangzhou and go south to implement his escape plan.
