Chapter 585 We Need to Talk
This pair of soft hedgehogs has a history.
It is said that when Li Wanjiang went to the southwest, he defeated a barbarian tribe three times in a row. The female leader of that tribe was convinced by Li Wanjiang, and she came to his camp to surrender alone with this pair of personal armor.
It happened that Gong Shouli was seriously injured at that time, and Li Wanjiang gave him this pair of armor in order to reward his loyalty.
After Gong Shouli accepted it, he was reluctant to wear it... It's not that he was reluctant to wear it, but he really couldn't wear it, because it was a woman's armor, and although he was thin and small, he couldn't wear it.
Just now I had a happy chat with Linger, and I blurted out a promise to give it to her. Although I immediately regretted it, but in his capacity, it is not easy to take back what I said.
In fact, although Gong Shouli is disabled, he is still a soldier at heart. How many times he dreamed back at midnight, it was all iron horses and ice rivers!
He himself may not be able to fight the enemy again in his life, so when he heard Ling'er talk about the fierce battle with Xianbo Mojie, he couldn't help but feel excited and couldn't help himself.
Only then did the heart of gifting armor arise.
Ling'er will wear this armor to fight in the future, and she also has a little sense of participation...
"This thing looks like a toy, is it reliable?" Tie Kunlun expressed doubts, would Gong Shouli be so kind?
"You'll know if it's reliable or not." Fu Yan pulled out the treasured saber and slashed at it.
There were only a few soft bangs, and when the blade touched the spikes of the soft hedgehog armor, sparks flew all over the place, but the soft armor was not damaged at all...
Woo! Everyone exclaimed loudly together, it turned out that this is really a pair of treasure armor!
The strength of Fu Yan's saber just now is not small, and he used a precious saber, even if it is a pair of thick iron armor, this saber can split it...
hey-hey! Ling'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly put it on, not to mention, it really fits, as if it was tailor-made for her!
"Little Lizi, go back and thank him for me." Linger's gratitude to Gong Shouli was sincere.
Everyone else hated Gong Shouli, but Ling'er only felt sorry for him, especially when he saw how embarrassed he was in a hurry to get on the horse but couldn't get on the horse just now, she couldn't bear it, so she came to help.
So Linger is still a kind-hearted little girl after all.
When Xiao Chen and the others set off the next day, they deliberately made a detour and passed Yujie, and it turned out that Yihong Courtyard had closed.
The high-end brothel that was once popular in the capital suddenly closed, which made many people feel sad, and more people were very surprised. How could such a good business just quit?
There must be something inside!
For a while, rumors spread everywhere, saying everything.
But there is one statement that the big guys agree with the most, that is, the boss of Yihong Courtyard offended Master Xiao Chenxiao, and he personally brought people to smash it!
Why? Because the boss of Yihong Courtyard, that is, the old bustard, once found Mr. Xiao's home for thousands of taels of money.
Lord Xiao, is that okay?
To get the account of Zhu Xiaochuan, the governor of Jinyiwei, and to copy the house of Gong Shouli, the chief eunuch who is in charge of the chief inspector of ceremonies!
Only he went to someone else's house to search for a bill, who the hell would dare to go to his house to ask for a bill?
So in the final analysis, it's your fault, old bustard, at least you should inquire about Master Xiao's temper before asking for the bill.
You can afford to provoke this master?
But if you want to say that the business of Yihongyuan is booming, it is because of Master Xiao's blessing.
If it wasn't for him, a romantic and talented man, drinking wine and reciting poems here, after being slumped drunk, he was carried to the Lantern Festival in the palace and went berserk, defeating all the Dongying people who came to provoke him, leaving this eternal story... How can your Yihong Courtyard be so popular?
Sigh... Don't say anything, Xiao Chen is really successful and Xiao Chen is defeated!
The boat sailed all the way to Shunfeng Port, and Governor Peter greeted him at the port in person, with a solemn expression and a lawsuit on his face.
"What's the matter, my dear old friend?" Xiao Chen gave him a big hug, "Why are you unhappy to see me?"
"I'm sorry dear Governor Xiao, I really can't be happy." Peter hugged him very perfunctorily, far less affectionate than before, "I think we need to have a good talk."
Naturally, what they were talking about was Yanyun Pass suddenly mobilizing tens of thousands of troops to gather in Changshan Prefecture.
There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Peter has been operating in Shunfeng Port for so many years, and naturally he has many "friends" in Yanyun County...
"Governor Peter, if you don't mention this matter, I will tell you too." Xiao Chen sighed deeply, and talked about the speech he had prepared a long time ago.
Do you think these soldiers came here against you Russ?
Not! They are coming against me!
The emperor has already become suspicious of me, and now all my military powers have been taken away, and all my soldiers in Yanyun County will also be disbanded, and all affairs of Yanyun County will be taken over by General Qin Gang in the future.
Hehe, Governor Peter, do you know what it means to be ostracized?
That's where I am now.
"How could this be?" Governor Peter expressed shock.
"We have an old saying in China, I think Governor Peter, you know it too, it's called a dead dog, and a bird is hidden! All the things I did in Yanyun County were made of wedding dresses for others, as if I worked hard I have planted food, but others come to reap it, and I can't eat any of it myself." Xiao Chen sighed again and again, feeling depressed.
"Oh, my dear friend, what can I do for you?" Governor Peter tentatively asked.
"I don't know, dear Peter, I can't help myself now, and I can't make decisions about anything. After the handover with General Qin Gang is over, I think I will resign. Hehe, being unofficial is easy, maybe in the future Just be a businessman, and maybe even do business with you, Governor Peter." Xiao Chen's words are more credible.
"But I will express serious protest to you, the Great Zhou Emperor!" Peter said, "According to our previous agreement, you cannot station an army of more than 10,000 people in Changshan Prefecture! Otherwise, we will take severe measures, and the consequences will be determined by You guys are in charge!"
"Dear Peter, did you make a mistake? The one who signed the agreement with you was the great man of the former dynasty, not the emperor of our Great Zhou." Xiao Chen reminded him that the Great Zhou had changed.
"This is your problem." Governor Peter said coldly, "We just want the result."
"If I can stay in Yanyun County, I will definitely prevent you from doing this!" Xiao Chen spread his hands, "But now, no matter what you do, Peter, it's up to you."
"I'm sorry too." Peter suddenly asked, "Is that General Qin Gang as smart as you?"
"Cut, a martial artist, as stupid as a pig!" Xiao Chen obviously realized his slip of the tongue after saying it casually, and quickly changed his words, "But he is still good, how about it, when he arrives, I will take him Come and see you."
"Oh?" Peter's eyes flashed. "Will he come?"
"Of course I will. No matter who is in charge of Yanyun County, you have to pay homage to Governor Peter, you big pier first, hehehe..."
Xiao Chen smiled sourly.
