Chapter 056 Accompanying Beauty

On this day, I went to Wang Mi's place, and then to Liu Daolian's place. When I returned to the post hall, it was almost midnight.

I pushed the door and entered the room. Hu Ji, sitting under the lamp, got up and smiled and said, "General is back."

"Hasn't it rested yet?" I saw two maids lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.

"My concubine is waiting for the general to come back. Please change your clothes first and serve the soup later.

"Oh." I answered, changed my clothes under her waiter and sat down at the lamp. The two maids are still lying there. Hu Ji wanted to wake them up, and I made a gesture to stop her.

Hu Ji went out to get soup, and I sat there thinking about things.

Whenever I see this Hu Ji, I have a heartfelt feeling. However, I have always been polite and indifferent to her: thinking of Jingkou's wife and children, I don't want to get too close to her; thinking of the amaranth that I declined, I don't want to be too close to Hu Ji; thinking that she was given by Huan Xuan, I dare not get too close to her. I have never had such complicated and entangled feelings for a woman.

When Hu Ji presented the soup, the two maids also woke up. I drank soup, and Hu Ji stood behind me and beat my shoulder. The two maids looked at it in a frenance, and they didn't leave or stay. After all, this is a post office, unlike the general's mansion where there are other rooms or courtyards to go.

I can't think of anything to say to break the embarrassment, so I have to take a sip of soup to cover myself. The room was very quiet, only the sound of me drinking soup.

But there is always a time to finish the soup.

Fortunately, before she finished drinking the soup, Hu Ji said, "General, have you worked hard today?"

"Yes. It's been a little hard to go out for a day. But it's okay."

"Concubine... I have nothing to do in the post hall, so I do some female red every day."

It seems that she said that the word "concubine" is a little strange and hesitant. It was impossible for her to call herself a "concubine" before she met me. Maybe she never thought that she would be as hesitant to say this word as it is today. And every time I hear this word, my heart will move.

means that she has become my family. The previous muddle-headed treatment of her, and the previous unknown reason, will disappear in front of this word. I can't refuse, and I can't refuse, especially there is no need to refuse, which makes me want to escape this reality. But in fact, reality is impossible to escape.

"How's the red girl doing well?" I asked without hesitation.

"Wait for the concubine and the general to have a look?"

"Good."

A maid ran into the inner room sensiblely, took out all the female reds they had made these days and spread out a table.

I picked up a few of them, looked at them through the light, and said repeatedly, "Okay, well done."

"The general took exactly what the young lady made." The maid said quickly.

"Oh? These are fine." I picked up a few more things on the table.

The maid laughed, and the other maid reached out and took her skirt. She didn't dare to laugh.

"I saw several female reds on your pillow, which you usually bring on your body. I'm in a hurry to go out today. Maybe you forgot. I've folded it and put it on the pillow. I think it was done by the lady and the lady. Hu Ji said carefully.

"Yes. One of the things that is not as good as what my daughter Xingdi did. Ha ha." Thinking of the "little sloppy" made by my daughter, I felt happy.

"Madam and Red did a good job! Miss can do that at a young age, which is not what an ordinary little girl can do. Very skillful!"

"Hmm." I answered, and the atmosphere seemed too dull. So he turned his head and looked at Hu Ji and said, "Dao'an, thank you for helping me with all your strength these days. I..."

As soon as I said this, Hu Ji's tears suddenly flowed out. I don't understand what it means. Stop and stare at her.

Hu Ji cried so much that she even cried. I'm even more at a loss.

"What are you?" I stood up.

General. Hu Dao'an has the honor to serve the general, which is really a blessing for our generation. I just don't know where my concubine didn't do a good job. I hope the general will make it clear and I will correct it in a moment. The general must not return me."

"Return? Didn't you want to return it?"

"Then what you just said..."

"Oh." Obviously, I didn't mean that, but thinking about what I just said, coupled with my attitude towards her, and her nature**, it really makes people mistakenly think that I'm going to say something. I said quickly, "How can I return it to you at will? You have indeed done your best to serve me in recent days, and I am deeply grateful for this. That's all."

"The general scared my concubine." Hu Ji suddenly flashed tears on her eyelashes and smiled shyly at the corners of her mouth. Her smiling expression is really the same as that of Amaranth, which makes people wonder whether Hu Dao'an is the twin sister of Amaran.

"Do you... have brothers and sisters?"

"There are only a few brothers and no sisters."

"Oh."

Serving, serving, I asked Hu Ji to serve only sleep. Nothing to say all night.

Since I came to Jiankang, I have also been to the court several times. Some of the rumors heard in the world are indeed conclusive. Since the usurpation of power, Huan Xuan's actions have intensified. At the beginning, the so-called heart of beseeing for the people has already flown out of the sky. Jiankang City has become his own paradise. The situation is no same as that of King Zhou. I am both worried and happy about this.

While I and Huan Xuan and his brothers, I deliberately made friends with aspiring people living in Jiankang as internal aid in the capital. In addition, I often read some military books.

Since joining the army, I have always believed that although I have won the trust of Sun Wuji, it is just a paper talk. In several battles with Sun En, I realized that the tactics I knew in those years were still quite beneficial. So he took advantage of his convenience in the capital and searched for some military books that were not easy to get before and studied them every day.

Madam is not around. I don't know how long I will stay in Jiankang, so I invited a gentleman to explain the meaning of the book to me.

After talking about a chapter in the military book on this day, Mr. Lu recommended "Lv's Spring and Autumn" to me, saying that this is a great collection of knowledge in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. I turned over, and the beginning was to talk about how the calendar is and how the emperor is. I don't like it.

I remember that my wife read an article about "breaking axe" for me, and I found that one and read it. I happened to see several neighboring articles that were military, so I read them in detail.

One of them is called "Decisive Victory". The article said: "The people are brave and timid. If there is qi, it will be real, and if there is truth, it will be brave; if there is no qi, it will be weak, and if it is false, it will be timid.

In this way, Sun En's thief soldiers are described in the book, "Although the army is large, although there are many soldiers, it is not conducive to victory. There are many soldiers who can't fight, and the crowd is not as few. Think about it, it's true. Sun En often moves tens of thousands of people, and his combat effectiveness is not as good as the thousands of people I lead.

Although these have been discussed in "Sun Tzu", these words in "Lv's Spring and Autumn" can be used as supplementary notes for "Sun Tzu", such as these sentences: "If you can't win, you can win in him", "The victory of all soldiers, the loss of the enemy" and so on. Looking back on the battle between me and Sun En, I can completely fit these sentences.

It seems that Lv Buwei's doormen are not all literati and talkers. These military personnel were originally from ancient military books, but summarized by Lv's Spring and Autumn, they are also quite exquisite. Unfortunately, this book is shallow about anything and does not delve into anything. So it's still unfinished to read.

While my husband's enthusiasm for recommending this book, I would like to ask him to explain more about the military for me.
