The reception dinner at the City Lord's Mansion didn't end until midnight, and everyone dispersed. Yang Yun and Zhong Hua left the City Lord's Mansion and walked down the street toward the military camp, with fifty personal guards following at a distance.
"Brother Zhong, do you think it is possible for Chu Jun to capture Shuangye City?" Yang Yun suddenly raised his head and asked.
"Others say that Chu Jun is a killer star who descends to the earth, causing bloody storms wherever he goes. At first glance, they thought he was just a brave and courageous killer. At best, he is just a reckless man with strong cultivation. However, he is a capable person. You are a fool, do you believe it?" Zhong Hua asked.
Yang Yun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If he is a reckless man, there will be no smart people in the world."
Zhong Hua nodded and said: "I heard that he killed Ximen Yu and Chu Xiaotian before. I really thought that he was just a brave and ruthless fool. However, it was such a fool who quietly established the Chu Army. , occupied the Daming Mansion, causing Chongming Continent to fall apart. Not long ago, they perfectly defeated the deputy commander of the ghost tribe, Gui Dongya!"
Yang Yun sighed: "He is indeed an amazing person. Although he is not a general, it seems that he has never failed in any major battles he participated in. Although the eldest prince sent troops to Xingchen Continent last time and was defeated, he was able to lead the coalition forces of various sects to fight against the enemy." Victory with less, and safely retreated to Chongming Continent. This time, we unexpectedly defeated Ghost Dongya and killed nearly 60,000 ghost troops. Who would have thought that this would be the result!"
Zhong Huaruo said meaningfully: "So General Yang actually admires the King of Chu?"
Yang Yun glanced at Zhong Hua and argued: "That's true, but I admire you. I still know my position clearly!"
Zhong Hua smiled and said: "So does General Yang hope that King Chu will succeed or fail this time?"
Yang Yun was actually a little confused. If Chu Jun failed, he could gain two cities. However, if Chu Jun failed, it would mean that the ghost army had won. How could Qinglong, who was the only one left, be able to withstand it? If Chu Jun succeeds, then he will join him.
Zhong Hua hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "It can be seen that the King of Chu values General Yang very much, and judging from the pattern, the Du family brothers and sisters are obviously not as good as the King of Chu. General Yang might as well consider it...!"
Yang Yun's face darkened, and before Zhong Hua could finish speaking, he interrupted: "Brother Zhong, I will treat this as if you never said it, so don't mention it again in the future!"
Zhong Hua sighed secretly, nodded and said: "That's fine!"
Everyone naturally wants to be taken seriously, and Yang Yun is no exception. Chu Jun would rather give up two cities in exchange for himself, which really moved him. As the saying goes, a scholar will die for his confidant. If he is still free now, he I am afraid that he will follow Chu Jun without hesitation, but he must have principles. Since he has already served the eldest prince, how can he easily switch to others? He cannot do such a shaky and villainous behavior. At least His Highness the King has not treated him badly. .
"However, everyone has his own ambitions. If Brother Zhong had other plans, I would not interfere!" Yang Yun said calmly.
Zhong Hua smiled mockingly, he wanted to join him, but the King of Chu was obviously more interested in Silver Warrior Yang Yun.
…
In the city lord's palace, Chu Jun walked along the quiet garden path and stopped in front of a courtyard. The sound of the piano came from the courtyard, tinkling like gurgling water flowing in the night, making people feel unknowingly. Become extremely calm.
Chu Jun stood outside the courtyard and listened carefully until the last ray of piano sound disappeared, then he opened the door and walked in.
I saw the elegant Dao Zhengming in blue shirt sitting in front of a guqin, lightly pressing the strings with both hands, seeming to be immersed in the wonderful charm of his own qin. The sandalwood in front of the lyre was curling up, which had an ancient charm.
Two female monks in palace attire with beautiful faces and slender figures stood on both sides. On the nearby coffee table, a small red clay stove had a charcoal fire, the tea sets were neatly placed, and a futon was placed on each side.
"Brother Taoist is really very elegant. His red sleeves are fragrant and he plays the piano at night. He stands by the beautiful woman and makes tea at night. He is really enviable to others!" Chu Jun walked over with a smile.
Dao Zhengming couldn't help but his eyes lit up, he stroked three strands of his long beard and praised: "The red sleeves add fragrance to the piano at night, and the sentences are exquisite. The King of Chu is really talented!"
Chu Jun shamelessly made a haha: "Good sentences are made by chance, and proficiency is unexpected!"
Dao Zhengming made a gesture, and the two maids respectfully retreated.
"King Chu, please sit down!" Dao Zhengming stood up, walked to the futon next to the coffee table, sat down, and made an elegant gesture of invitation.
Chu Jun smiled and said: "I am going to be arty tonight!" After saying that, he took off his boots and sat cross-legged on the futon opposite.
At this time, the two maids each brought a basin of water for them to wash their hands and faces. Chu Jun was not polite and followed Dao Zhengming's example and washed his face and hands.
Dao Zhengming gracefully lifted the boiling hot water to clean the tea set, wash the tea and make tea. In a moment, a cup of fragrant tea was placed in front of Chu Jun.
"King Chu, please!" Dao Zhengming said with a smile.
Chu Jun picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The light tea seeped into his teeth. He unknowingly thought of Li Xiangjun. This woman who knew how to enjoy herself had collected many rare tea leaves. Dao Zhengming was obviously a tea lover. The two of them could communicate.
"What do you think, King Chu?" Dao Zhengming looked at Chu Jun and asked, obviously very confident in his tea art.
Chu Jun smiled and said: "Yes, but tea tasting is not my strong point. Li Xiangzhu is good at it. Taoist brother, you can communicate with her when you are down!"
Dao Zhengming smiled and said: "I have long heard that Master Li Xiang is almost demonic in intelligence. I didn't expect that he is also a master of tea ceremony. I really want to ask for advice when I have the opportunity!"
Chu Jun laughed and said: "There is a chance!"
The first reason why Dao Zhengming turned to Chu Jun was because he saw Chu Jun's potential, and the second reason was that there was already a Liu Yong in Tiance Mansion.
Dao Zhengming naturally knew that Chu Jun had Li Xiangjun under his command, but she was a woman after all, and she was not that powerful even if she thought about it. Besides, no matter how powerful she was, she would have to retreat to the background sooner or later. What makes Dao Zhengming happy is that Chu Jun chatted with him about Li Xiangjun at this time, and he obviously had initial trust in him. His efforts during this period were not in vain.
"By the way, how did Brother Tao know that Du Runan would send someone like Du Rukun?" Chu Jun suddenly asked curiously.
Dao Zhengming smiled and said: "The King of Chu overestimated me. I did not expect that Du Runan would send Du Rukun. Originally, Du Runan had Xu Ji next to him, and he would definitely not make such a stupid move, but Du Runan chose to send Du Rukun. Could it be that Is it because King Chu’s luck is too strong?”
Chu Jun couldn't help laughing: "This Du Rukun is quite talented. He offended the Qinglong Army as soon as he arrived at the city gate!"
Dao Zhengming smiled disdainfully and said: "Du Rukun has a ruthless personality. In addition, he came to seize power this time. Naturally, he wanted to establish his authority first. However, he failed to establish his authority. Instead, he became enemies. Such a mediocre person is not worth it. Mention it. Du Rukun suffered a big loss in front of the city lord's palace not long ago. With his character, Yang Yun will definitely not get any good results after he returns. As long as the King of Chu continues to act according to his plan, Yang Yun and the 20,000 Qinglong Army will naturally be defeated. Will be included in it!”
Chu Jun felt very good, and the two of them discussed the next attack on Shuangye City while sipping tea.
Chu Jun and Dao Zhengming were making tea late at night, and there was also a person doing the same thing in a courtyard in the east of Beast Taming City.
The moon is leaking like a comb, and the faint light shines down from the leaves of the spiritual tree. A white and delicate jade hand holds the handle of the copper pot, and a steaming arc-shaped water column is accurately injected into the purple clay pot. The floating tea leaves continue to flow. Ups and downs, fresh air overflowing.
The tea is Bingyunzhou's snow-capped needle tea in March, and the water is the melted water from the ice-covered area of Bingyunzhou that has been frozen for thousands of years. It is as luxurious as ever, just like the enjoyment of living here, knowing how to enjoy it, and being able to afford it. It is the highest state of life.
Li Xiangjun lifted the purple clay pot and filled the two floral warm jade cups in front of her. Under the soft light of the moonstone, the beauty tea was as beautiful and elegant as an ancient painting.
Li Xiangjun stretched out his slender fingers and tapped Xiaoxue's forehead across from him, and said with a smile: "Smelly girl, why are you so dazed?"
Xiaoxue smiled and said: "Sister Xiangjun, I noticed that the way you concentrate on making tea is different from usual!"
"What's the difference?" Li Xiangjun asked funnyly.
"Sister Xiangjun is very impressive when she makes tea... Oh, I don't know how to describe it. Anyway, it is very beautiful, just like a painting. I don't dare to show off for fear of disturbing Sister Tea Fairy!"
Li Xiangjun laughed out loud, and suddenly became charming!
"Stinky girl, you're just flattering me, right? Wouldn't this girl be beautiful if she doesn't make tea?" Li Xiangjun said in a feigned annoyance.
Xiaoxue stuck out her tongue cutely and said: "No, Sister Xiangjun is beautiful even without cooking, but the two kinds of beauty are completely different... Hehe, Sister Xiangjun looks like a tea fairy when she makes tea, but normally... she looks like a vixen, men see her My heart is itching and my legs are weak, I can’t wait for that... ugh!”
"Damn girl, you dare to make fun of me, you are the slutty fox!" Li Xiangjun scolded, and she giggled, quite proudly.
Xiaoxue said with a smile: "I'm telling the truth, sometimes even I feel moved when I look at Sister Xiangjun!" After saying that, she vividly stared at Li Xiangjun's seductive breasts, where a shocking breast curve was raised.
Li Xiangjun's charming face turned red, and she stretched out her hand to pinch Xiaoxue's cheek, while laughing and scolding: "Damn girl, you have been around Xi'er and the others too much, and you have learned to be a gangster. Let me tear your mouth apart!"
Xiaoxue dodged Li Xiangjun's hand, giggled and begged for mercy: "Sister Xiangjun, please forgive me, I won't dare to do it anymore!"
Li Xiangjun gently plucked the hair from his forehead and said with a half-smile: "It seems that I have to send you to Tao Feifei when I get back, just in time for Fan Jian to satisfy you, this coquettish fox!"
Xiaoxue's face immediately turned red and she counterattacked: "How about I go find the master now and ask him to satisfy someone, so that no one will sigh all the time!"
Li Xiangjun immediately felt as if his tail had been stepped on. He stood up and wanted to tear Xiaoxue's mouth apart.
Xiaoxue hurried away and said with a smile: "Sister Xiangjun is bullying others, I will go to the master to file a complaint!"
"Damn girl, if you dare to reveal my whereabouts, watch your skin carefully!"
