Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 337 Three steps back, a hundred steps to win

Hearing Qiuhang's unkind words, all the nearby soldiers turned angry and drew their swords at Qiuhang. The few people who were knocked away by him rushed over and punched Qiuhang in the stomach.

Qiuhang snorted, his face twisted into a towel after being beaten, but the hatred in his eyes did not diminish by half.

"Stop, everyone back down." Baili Weiming ordered.Because of his strict command of the army, he is highly respected by the soldiers, so no matter what he thinks in his heart, as long as it is an order from General Kansai, the soldiers will respectfully obey it.

"Yes." Withdrew.

Qiuhang raised his nose and snorted, "It's a hypocrisy!"

Baili Weiming didn't answer, so he summoned a lieutenant general and ordered: "You leave two hundred soldiers behind, go and bury the corpses of Lanzhuang Zhuangmen and send them back to Lanzhuang. The rest of the general will be stationed in Shaocheng with this general. "

"Yes!"

Qiuhang cast a sideways glance at Baili Weiming and remained silent.

Because the grain and grass were robbed, they became the items of the merchant army, and Qiuhang fell into the hands of Baili Weiming. Therefore, after Baili Jiuge returned to Lucheng with Mo Li, he was very worried about the grain and grass. .

After the people in Lucheng heard about this, they all wanted to return some of the food and grass they had received before, but Mo Li smiled and refused, saying that you are not welcome, he can handle it.

Baili Jiuge also knew Mo Li's methods, so he believed that he could find a way to solve the crisis, so he took time to spend time with his parents and Jin'er, stealing half a day of warmth.

The next day, a letter was sent.

The person who delivered the letter was a soldier under Baili Weiming's command, and Mo Li announced that he would come in, and that person handed Baili Weiming's letter to Mo Li.

The letter said that Baili Weiming asked Mo Li to meet at the Wangjiang Pavilion on the Danjiang River at the beginning of the afternoon.

Danjiang is a dangerous river in front of Shaocheng.

Baili Jiuge also read the letter, and knew that the eldest brother would not hurt Mo Li, so he said, "I will go with you at the first moment, how many people do we want to bring?"

Mo Li thought for a while, and said softly, "Go to the meeting alone."

Baili Jiuge was surprised: "Mo Li, what did you say?"

He smiled and took Baili Jiuge's hand and said, "I mean, just the two of us can go together."

Although Baili Jiuge always felt that Mo Li was too risky this time, but she was fearless, so she went to prepare right away.Before leaving, he specially fed Jin'er, coaxing Jin'er to smile, and then set off on the horse.

Two horses galloped out of the city, one bay red and one snow white. The soldiers standing on the city wall were all worried about the safety of His Highness and Concubine Shi Zi.

Guyan was also standing among them, not too worried.Anyway, even if those two masters were surrounded by thousands of troops, they could still break out in style, not to mention that it was just an appointment with uncle, what danger could there be?
wrong!Suddenly two clusters of flames appeared in Guyan's eyes.

What uncle!I am the genuine uncle, so what is unknown, step aside!

At the beginning of time, Baili Jiuge and Mo Li arrived at the bank of the Danjiang River.As far as the eye could see, the river was flowing, and most of the water in the river was frozen due to the severe cold.The weeping willows on the bank were withered and hanging down, and the Wangjiang Pavilion stood not far away, and there was already someone waiting for them there, with a tall figure facing the river, bathed in the bleak winter wind.

Baili Jiuge knew that it was her elder brother Baili Weiming.

After the two got off their horses, a few soldiers who were standing beside the Wangjiang Pavilion came over, bowed their hands to Mo Li respectfully, and then led the horses for him and Baili Jiuge, and tied the horses to the trunk of a willow tree. superior.

The two came to the pavilion and entered this unique small pavilion. Baili Jiuge couldn't help but call out: "Brother."

Baili Weiming turned around and looked back, his heroic eyebrows slightly raised, and a smile appeared on his handsome face, "Jiu Ge, how are you doing recently? I vaguely heard that a lot of unpleasant things happened to you."

Now that the identities of Jing Liufeng and Baili Xiao have not been made public, Baili Jiuge knows that what Baili Weiming said must be that she and Mo Li are siblings.

She shook her head, laughed loudly and said: "It's nothing, talk is three people become tigers, I don't take it seriously, thank you brother for thinking about it." After saying that, she hurriedly asked: "What did brother want Mo Li to come over? Let’s say first that Mo Li is not allowed to be hurt, otherwise I won’t stand by. Also, is Qiuhang in your hands? Qiuhang is just doing logistics, and he won’t go to the battlefield, brother, let Qiuhang go.”

Baili Weiming did not answer, turned his eyes to look at Mo Li, and saluted, "Zhou Shizi."

"General Kansai." Mo Li returned the gift warmly and modestly, neither far nor near.

He didn't say much, he was just waiting for Baili Weiming to speak. At this moment, he already had a guess in his heart, thinking of what Baili Weiming was going to do.

Then I saw Baili Weiming winking at the soldiers outside the pavilion. The soldiers understood, and quickly dragged out the man hidden behind a tall willow tree.

"Wow! Let me go!" the man bared his teeth and screamed, the crooked ponytail on his head was gone, and his iridescent clothes were covered with wrinkles and dirt.

As soon as he saw him, Baili Jiuge exclaimed in surprise: "Qiuhang?!"

Qiuhang was stunned, and saw someone he knew, and immediately cried out with tears in his eyes: "Woooooooo, are you here to save Xiaosheng, beauty? Xiaosheng is so touched... Woooooo, Mo Li, you are going to kill this scumbag!" General Kansai, he is a bad guy, a big villain!"

Baili Jiuge was originally concerned about whether Qiuhang was injured or not, but after hearing his deep-felt complaints, he felt empowered by the dark clouds, and the corners of his mouth twitched, and he really wanted to sneer, "Are you three years old, Qiuhang?! "

After glaring at Qiuhang, Baili Jiuge strode over, pulled Qiuhang over, and untied him.

Untied from the rope, Qiuhang raised his sleeve and began to wipe his eyes, as if crying: "Woooooh, Mo Li, you have finally come to save me, take me back soon!"

Mo Li's face was calm, and the joy in his eyes was well hidden under the bleak winter wind.He asked: "General Guanxi wants to send the owner back?"

Baili Weiming asked back: "Why didn't the prince of Zhou think that he wanted to exchange Lu Cheng with Master Wenzhuang and the prince?"

Mo Liyun smiled lightly: "If General Guanxi really has this plan, then I am willing to hand over Lu Cheng in exchange for Qiuhang. But..." There was a sharp streak in his eyes, "Sooner or later, I will join forces Linchao Capital, so even if Lucheng returns to the hands of General Kanxi, I will definitely be able to take it back."

Baili Weiming burst into laughter suddenly, his eyes were vigorous and sharp, and the hearty laughter was clear, without a trace of intrigue.

He said with a smile: "I have heard about Zhou Shizi's literary and martial arts strategy for a long time. I heard that when Zhou Shizi was in Heluo, he played against Chen Huangfu who was trying to force the palace to usurp the throne. It only took 36 moves in a game to defeat Chen Huangfu." , such a chess skill, this general also wants to experience it."

Mo Li smiled and said: "Don't dare to be conceited, I haven't played chess with anyone for a long time, since General Kansai invited me, I will be disrespectful."

"Okay, my son is simple." Baili Weiming smiled and pointed his left hand, and a soldier brought up the chessboard and placed the chessboard on the stone table in the pavilion.

"My son please."

"General please."

The two of them sat down, one of them hung down vigorously in regular clothes, and the other lay gracefully on the ground with a crane cloak, carrying thousands of Udumbana in full bloom.

Looking at each other with a smile that was neither salty nor light, Baili Weiming asked: "Do you want to be the first or the second?"

Mo Li said softly, "I'm not used to playing first. I used to play chess with others only when I played second."

"That will be as the son wishes." Baili Weiming took out a black chess piece from the chess basket.

"Tianyuan." The chess piece fell with a clear and crisp sound.

Mo Li responds without haste, and the white chess piece falls.

Seeing that the two of them entered the state of playing chess so quickly, Baili Jiuge couldn't keep up with the beat, what happened, why did they suddenly start playing chess?Are Mo Li and Big Brother going to fight both literary and martial arts?

She hurriedly said, "Mo Li, that—"

"Jiuge." He looked over in a blink of an eye, his soft eyes seemed to penetrate Qianzhang Ruanhong, so soft that Baili Jiuge couldn't help but stop talking.

Mo Li said softly: "Don't talk yet, just watch quietly for a while, okay?"

"Mo Li..." With some lingering in his heart, Baili Jiuge replied foolishly: "I know, I won't talk." He gave Qiu Hang who was about to speak again a look, and said in a low voice: "Don't talk either! "

Mo Li smiled, looked back, and focused all his attention back on the chess game.

The two held black and white, and formed their own battles. There was a constant sound of clear and cold falls between the three-foot yin and yang, and the shadow of the sword and the light of the sword surged in the silence.

There are 360 ​​moves in a game of chess, and each move is a game of life and death, repeated over and over again, and needs to be determined with foresight and foresight.

Baili Jiuge discovered that Baili Weiming was also a master chess player, and he had been playing against Mo Li for a while, and they were still evenly matched.

It was Mo Li's turn to play the chess again, he quietly gave Baili Weiming a move, and the white piece landed in a position that was favorable for the black piece to attack.

Baili Weiming looked suspicious, "Is this chess move by Shizi serious?"

"Yes." Mo Li raised his eyes, and replied after hearing the words: "This is the first step, thank you General Guanxi for letting him back to Qiuhang."

Baili Weiming calmly dropped sunspots.

Mo Li picked up Bai Zi, and gave another step, "This second step is to thank General Guanxi for taking care of Jiuge in the past."

Baili Jiuge's heart warmed, and Baili Weiming accepted it frankly.

The third step is still to give in, Mo Li said sincerely: "The third step is not for anything else, but to respect you as a meritorious general."

"Okay!" Baili Weiming, who hadn't spoken for a long time, was already shocked by the fight in the chess game, and said: "These three steps, my son, have no intention of retreating into advance, and they are actually giving up all the opportunities. Give it to me. It seems that this game may be won by me."

"This statement is wrong." Mo Li's eyes flashed sharply, and he said warmly but firmly: "Yesterday in front of the Xianshan Canyon, I have already said that even if the general takes the food and grass and takes the lead , he will have the last laugh in the future."

The white chess piece clanged and fell, just like Mo Li's voice, a faint clang: "General Guanxi is naturally not comparable to Chen Huangfu's generation. I have warned Chen Huangfu that he will be defeated within seven moves. Then, I will Also tell General Kansai, at a hundred paces, the victory will be decided between you and me."
