Quick wear: The full-level boss has torn up the cannon fodder script again

Chapter 177

As soon as he went to court, Shu Liang went straight to the room, and impatiently changed the court clothes that were getting in the way.

After changing into casual clothes, Shu Liang came out of the room with a few maps in his arms, went to the yard and found a place to sit down.

It's close to the kitchen, so she can go to the kitchen to find something to eat after putting away her things.

Raising his head, he caught a glimpse of a somewhat familiar figure coming out of the kitchen with a bowl in his hand.

She squinted her eyes and recognized that the man was the boy she had brought back from the Eternal Night Prison some time ago.

The young man took off the black prison uniform and put on the rough cloth clothes given by the old housekeeper. Although the material was not good, it was very clean, but it obviously didn't fit well and was much shorter. It looks a little cramped.

He tied his long hair neatly behind his head, his face remained calm, and he kept his eyes fixed as he walked, as if he didn't notice her existence, and was about to pass by her.

Shu Liang stopped him: "Li Yan."

As soon as the words fell, Li Yan stopped steadily in his footsteps, turned his face accurately, met her gaze, and said calmly: "General."

From his eyes, Shu Liang could not find the slightest surprise.

She even suspected that he didn't notice her just now, but deliberately pretended not to see her.

... Tsk, is this brat so rude?
Shu Liang lifted her chin and signaled him to come over: "Come and sit."

Li Yan walked over steadily, nodded to her, sat down on the stone chair opposite her, and put the bowl in his hand on the table.

"what is this?"

Shu Liang looked at the scented noodles in front of him, and the glutton in his stomach became restless, asking questions knowingly.

"noodle."

Shu Liang asked again: "Did you do it yourself?"

"Ah."

She smiled, "It looks delicious."

Hearing this, Li Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, took a quick look at her, and pushed the face in front of Shu Liang without hesitation.

Shu Liang's eyes lit up immediately, and he swallowed.

When he got closer, he could see that there was sweat on his forehead, and his hair seemed a little wet, maybe it was sweat.

She lingered on the sweat beads on his Adam's apple for a moment, then looked away, resisting the urge to take the chopsticks he handed over, and asked, "Only this bowl?"

"Well," after a pause, Li Yan added an explanation: "It's only enough to make one bowl."

Ugh.

Pity.

A little reluctance appeared in Shu Liang's eyes unconsciously.

"Forget it, you can eat, I'm not hungry."

Li Yan remained silent, but still stretched out his hand, handing her the chopsticks.

Shu Liang shook his head and said, "I'll try your handicraft next time I have a chance."

……next time?
Li Yan thought for a moment, then nodded: "En."

He took the chopsticks back and didn't insist anymore.

Gollum-

An embarrassing voice sounded.

Shu Liang raised her hand subconsciously to touch her stomach, and then realized that the sound did not come from her stomach.

Then besides her, there is only...

She looked at Li Yan.

Facing her narrow smile, the boy's ears felt faintly hot, and he pursed his lips.

Knowing that the feeling of being hungry is uncomfortable, Shu Liang stopped teasing him and urged: "Eat quickly."

Li Yan ate the noodles quietly.

Shu Liang found it interesting, "You didn't move at all while eating."

If it's just rice, it's fine, but if you eat noodles, how can you make no movement at all?
Not only was there no movement of the noodle, but it was also extremely slow. A mouthful of noodles had to be chewed several times before swallowing, as if it was difficult to swallow.

Looking at it, I feel that this bowl of noodles is not so fragrant.

Li Yan stopped his movements, swallowed what was in his mouth, and said slowly: "In the past, in prison, when we were eating, the jailer didn't allow us to make any movement, otherwise we would be whipped."

Over time, this habit is formed.

"So much?"

Not allowing people to talk is justified, but not even the movement of normal eating is too inhuman.

According to his eating speed, he would be hungry in the army.

Shu Liang thought for a moment, then suddenly asked: "According to the days, you have been in the mansion for almost a month, right?"

"Yes."

To be precise, it was three days and a month away.

"What are you doing?"

Li Yan replied, "Carrying water and chopping firewood."

Shu Liang raised her eyebrows: "Uncle Zhong asked you to do these?"

Li Yan nodded first, then thought for a while, and said, "Let me read some books too."

"Oh? What books have you read, tell me?"

Shu Liang was a little curious.

"Literacy"

The Book of Literacy, as the name suggests, is a book that three or four-year-old children read when they are enlightened.

Hearing this, Shu Liang smiled softly, "This book is very suitable for you."

Her eyes fell on a map of Yandu spread out in front of her, she found the location of the General Zhen Guo's Mansion, she casually stretched out her index finger and pointed, and said: "Study hard, you will be able to read military books after a while."

Li Yan raised his eyes suddenly, with a bit of astonishment in his eyes.

Did he hear it right?
From the corner of his eyes, Shu Liang saw that he stopped eating and was looking at her. After pondering for a while, he said, "By the way, I haven't asked your wishes yet, Li Yan, you would rather learn some poetry and classics. Should I be a scholar, or would I rather learn some martial arts and the art of war, and be a soldier?"

She raised her head and asked solemnly.

Li Yan asked: "Do I have to choose the same?"

These words sounded a little bit reluctant, and Shu Liang was caught off guard when he recalled the students on campus who shouted all day long, "I don't want to study, I don't want to take the postgraduate entrance examination, I don't want to find a job, I just want to retire immediately". It's a little funny. : "People have to learn something, right?"

Li Yan asked again: "What does the general want me to learn?"

Gee.

How did it sound like she had the illusion that she was a parent who was discussing with her child how to fill in the college entrance examination?

Shu Liang shook her head: "I'm not old-fashioned, I'm asking you what you want now, I just want to hear what you mean."

Li Yan looked at her silently, as if he didn't understand the meaning of her words, he asked almost stubbornly: "What kind of person does the general need?"

Shu Liang thought for a moment, then told him truthfully: "I need someone who can fight side by side with me."

Li Yan nodded and said: "Then I will be a soldier."

Shu Liang restrained her smile slowly, raised her eyebrows: "So rash?"

In fact, that was exactly the answer she wanted to hear.

After all, Shu Liang had a strong intuition the first time he saw him in prison——

He is fit for battle.

These eyes are like eagles and wolves, calm, dull, and insensitive to emotions. Once such a person decides on one thing, he will do his best and remain unmoved by everything around him.

Is it rash?
He doesn't think so.

Li Yan said: "This is my decision."

Seeing his serious appearance, Shu Liang smiled: "You want to fight side by side with me so much?"

"Ah."

Shu Liang nodded, "Then you have to prepare well during this time."

He froze for a moment, then hesitated, "...what are you going to prepare?"

"Join the army and set off."

A little puzzled appeared in Li Yan's eyes: "But I heard that you, General, have been confiscated."

Ever since he entered the residence of the Great General of the Town, he had seen her fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.

Yinhuan or anyone else was not allowed to wake her up early in the morning. If she woke up naturally, she would lazily change into her court clothes, and if she didn't wake up, just pretend nothing happened.

It's almost like a person who has nothing to do and gives up on himself.

"Confiscated?" Shu Liang smiled, with disdain in her eyes: "It's just lent them for fun."

She said: "Things that are borrowed must be returned."

So sure, the military power will return to her hands?

Li Yan didn't know why she acted so confidently, he thought, she didn't mean to explain to him.

So he kept silent and didn't ask questions.

Shu Liang said earnestly: "The sharp edge of the battlefield has no eyes, but it can temper people the most. You have no qualifications, and if you want to be promoted to fame, this is also the fastest shortcut."

Li Yan looked at the lumpy noodles, and lost the desire to move his chopsticks.

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he only said: "I don't care about fame."

Shu Liang looked at the remaining noodles in his bowl with some pity, and didn't notice that he hesitated to speak, "You can't say that, since you have decided to be a soldier, you must work hard to achieve something, even if you don't want to fight Fight, but there are always people who want to climb up on your head, are you willing to be a stepping stone?"

"I don't want to."

Shu Liang raised her eyebrows: "Then it's over? Young people, you should be a little aggressive."

Li Yan blinked and looked at her quietly, those dark and deep eyes were extremely clear at this moment, reflecting her figure.

Shu Liang suddenly had the illusion that he had seen through the hidden meaning.

But it is said that people of this age are more sensitive, maybe it is not her illusion.

"Well, to be honest, I just hope you don't do too badly. Anyway, you are the one I picked. If you are too incompetent, wouldn't it make me laugh at my vision?"

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the person in front of him was not that far away from him.

Li Yan slowly raised the corners of his mouth, couldn't help laughing, and said softly: "Well, that's the truth."

"I will try my best not to let you down," he said.

It was the first time that Shu Liang saw such a vivid look on his face.

She looks so indifferent when she is sullen, but she is cute when she smiles, with a bit of weird obedience.

... It must be that she was blinded by hunger and had an illusion.

Shu Liang got up and rolled up the map: "Then you eat first, I'll go first."

It was really tormenting to smell such a tempting fragrance but not be able to eat it, and to hold back the ability to drool in front of him.

Shu Liang decided to change places.

Li Yan looked at her back, and called out to her by accident.

"General!"

Shu Liang stopped and looked back at him, wondering: "Huh? What else is there?"

In Li Yan's mind, the things he heard from Uncle Zhong and Yin Huan about her and the current Holy Majesty, since he heard these things, he couldn't sleep day and night, and his heart felt as uncomfortable as scratching his heart and lungs. Yes, as if blocked by something.

He doesn't believe it, he doesn't want to believe it, but he doesn't know why he doesn't want to believe it?
The words of Uncle Zhong and Yinhuan were not groundless, and the fact that she repeatedly ignored the court order but never received any punishment seemed to prove that she had an unusual relationship with His Majesty.

Li Yan put down his chopsticks and stood up unconsciously.

"Your Majesty... what kind of person do you think he is?"

His hands hung by his sides, tightening unconsciously.

What kind of person is Mu Xuanyi?

Shu Liang looked at him apprehensively, and couldn't help frowning: "He is an incompetent monarch, good at scheming." But he only pointed the tip of the knife at the people around him.

Hearing her disrespectful words, Li Yan's face didn't change much, his eyes were somewhat thoughtful, as if he was judging the credibility of her words.

Seeing that he still had something to say, Shu Liang asked, "Any questions?"

"Why did you fail to ask for leave many times, but you were not punished?"

Shu Liang never imagined that this was the problem that troubled him.

She laughed out loud: "It seems that you really want to see me get punished."

"……That was not what I meant."

Shu Liang waved her hand: "Don't be afraid, I was just joking."

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can understand that Li Yan stays in the mansion all day, and the source of information is nothing more than the old housekeeper and his wife, and Yinhuan.

Having just arrived in this new environment, normal people would naturally be curious about the owner here. It sounds like it is not surprising to know that the relationship between her and Mu Xuanyi is unusual.

Shu Liang said: "He doesn't move me, of course it's because he doesn't dare, why not? Because he will ask me soon."

Don't dare...?Want to ask her...?
Such a firm tone again.

Li Yan stared at her blankly, and murmured softly: "I thought..."

"What do you think?" Shu Liang smiled, "You think he has an affair with me, so you allow me to challenge his authority unscrupulously?"

"..."

Li Yan knew that she had already guessed that he had inquired about her behind her back and that he had tested her behavior just now.

Is she mad?
Li Yan couldn't see it.

Shu Liang took out a letter from his sleeve and waved it at him. Seeing his doubts, he explained: "Qibei's battle report."

Qibei is the junction of Weiguo and Lanluo.

Lan Luo is the country that has won two victories in a row, came forward to challenge the country of Wei without fear of death, and took the initiative to go to war.

This area of ​​Qibei dates back to a hundred years ago and has always been the territory of the Kingdom of Wei. However, Lan Luo took advantage of the fact that there were few people in this area, and some of them were just simple villagers who had no power to restrain chickens, so he sent people to expel the original residents and overthrow the Their house, built another house, planted Lan Luo's flag, and seized the land openly, trying to make Qibei the territory of Lan Luo.

Li Yan didn't understand why she suddenly took out Qibei's battle report.

Shu Liang said: "Lan Luo is about to take Beiyi City."

Beiyi City is the closest city to Qibei. There are not only people there, but most importantly, there is an entire ironstone mine.

Lanluo people are good at smelting.

And what does a whole untapped iron ore mine mean?
This is a potential arsenal. Once Lan Luo snatches it, in time, they can create sophisticated weapons that can be equipped with thousands of troops, greatly enhancing the combat effectiveness of their army.

The huge gap between weapons cannot be made up by even the best tactics.

At that time, I am afraid that Weiguo will really be wiped out by Lan Luo, a small country that has not been taken seriously.

Li Yan also fell into silence.
