Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 446: A Wordless Reunion

Zhou Xian felt ashamed to face Guo Shao, but couldn't help looking and looking forward to the door of the tent. ●Everything was too hasty, not ready at all... As soon as he arrived at the place, he rushed to see him, looking so urgent, and when he knew that his trip was going to kill him, what kind of situation should he be in?

Countless memories had already been sealed up, but at this moment, this scene was awakened again, Zhou Xian's heart was full of ups and downs and mixed feelings.

At this moment, the light suddenly dimmed slightly, and a tall and strong figure appeared at the door. Like a mountain blocking the sun, Zhou Xian's heart suddenly stagnated, the suffocating feeling of being unable to breathe hit her heart unpreparedly, her eyes were dizzy, and she couldn't see Guo Shao's appearance clearly for a while.

"Marshal Guo is here!" A warrior shouted with a nervous trembling voice. Then they heard a sound of "wow", and a group of soldiers raised their tasseled guns.

In an instant, Zhou Xian intuitively felt the status of this person in the hearts of the forbidden soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty, and he must be the soul figure in the hearts of these wolf-like men.

She finally calmed down a little, looked up, and saw that Guo Shao's gaze had already rested on her. As soon as their eyes met, Zhou Xian hurriedly looked away, paying attention to his movements from the corner of his eye. As Guo Shao approached, her heart tightened more and more, she tugged at her sleeves with sweat, her palms were covered with sweat... I really didn't feel so worried when I saw the emperor.

But Guo Shao walked past her without saying a word, and continued to look at the other women.

Zhou Xian was a little surprised at first, Guo Shao would never rush to meet some singing girls, his purpose of this trip was only himself; but he paid special attention to other singing girls, pretending not to know himself, as if to cover up, what is he covering up?

Zhou Xian observed him, and found that there was a slight sadness in his eyes, which was completely different from Li Yu's anxiety, which was very forbearing and elusive.

This person's mind is very delicate, Zhou Xian has seen it before. She couldn't help observing him and guessing his thoughts. Guo Shao is very neat and tidy, so neat that he doesn't look like he is fighting... But even if he is fighting, he doesn't have to fight in person, so it is understandable.

His whole person gave Zhou Xian a very unique feeling, completely different from all the people in the world. His details are gorgeous and extravagant. The sword scabbard at his waist is gold and inlaid with gemstones. It is doubtful whether this sword can be used for combat. The waist buckle is also gold, shining in the sun... But the clothes he wears are not red and blue brocades. The outer coat is dusty and the inner lining is plain white.

He is tall and strong, and his manner is not refined; but he is not as rude and informal as that kind of bold warrior. His body is straight, his every move is very regular, and he even pays too much attention to details, such as the action of deliberately straightening his shirt just now, which is not free and easy at all. What kind of experience made him develop such a temperament?

After watching all the singing girls one by one, Guo Shao returned to Zhou Xian, pointed at her and said, "What's your name?" Before Zhou Xian could answer, he didn't seem to care what kind of name she would make up, and then said, "Come with me."

Zhou Xian's face was hot for a while, he bowed his knees slightly and said calmly, "Yes, General."

Just as she was about to come out, a voice suddenly said: "The army is full of men, and it is inconvenient for no one to take care of my wife's daily life. General, please allow me to accompany my wife."

Liu Liuyao's voice. It was only then that Zhou Xian suddenly realized the purpose of this trip. At that moment, he forgot what he was doing here... It would be very unreliable to ask her to assassinate her. She immediately became tense and heavy, because she fully understood Liu Liuyao's mission in her heart.

Guo Shao turned his head to look at the woman who spoke, his eyes were very bright, he was not looking at Zhou Xian, but she had the illusion that she had been seen through, and felt that everything could not be hidden from Guo Shao.

Silent, he didn't say a word for a while, the atmosphere was gradually tightening, the air seemed to be frozen in the air. Liu Liuyao is indeed a very courageous woman, she could bear such a pressured gaze and look at Guo Shao calmly... But precisely because of this, Liu Liuyao has already exposed that she is not a simple person. This woman's heart is not as fine as Guo Shao's.

Zhou Xian felt that everything was over. The so-called careful planning of this trip was like a piece of paper in front of Guo Shao.

He finally spoke, his tone was still very gentle, "No, you can't serve people well, you're too careless..." He took two steps, and stood in front of a young lady, who lowered her head and timidly looked at her toes, and said, "Come with that lady and serve her daily life, are you willing?"

The little lady nodded hurriedly, but couldn't speak half a word.

Guo Shao immediately turned and left without staying for even a moment. Then a young general came and said politely: "You two come with me. My name is Lu Chengyong. If you have any troubles, please tell me."

Zhou Xian and the other two followed the young man out of the tent. The man didn't talk much, and he didn't ask any superfluous words, and walked ahead silently to lead the way.

There was a rough scene outside the tents, a large banner was flapping in the light snow, soldiers with long weapons walked through the tents in a line, and the smoke was lingering in the snow.

There is an extended footprint on the mud and snow on the ground, and the steps are very large. The route of Zhou Xian and the others completely overlapped with this series of footprints. She tried silently, and she couldn't reach the step of the footprints after taking three steps.

Not long after, Zhou Xian entered the large tent of the Chinese army, and saw Guo Shao sitting in front of a desk built with rough wooden boards, on which various papers and tools were placed in a mess. Then she turned her head and saw that the young man had already stopped the girl behind him, but she didn't get the money, so there were only two people left in the most spacious tent.

The layout here is very rough and monotonous, and of course there will be no decorations when marching and camping; but she found a small wintersweet on the chopping board. Zhou Xian couldn't help being taken aback.

Guo Shao looked up at her, sighed softly, and couldn't hide the pity in his eyes: "I have thought many times about the circumstances when we met again, and worried that we would not meet again, but I really didn't expect it to be like this."

When Zhou Xian heard the words "thought many times" and "worried" in that low voice, his heart softened, and he couldn't feel the danger of this person at all.

She whispered: "I didn't expect that either."

Then Guo Shao said again: "Your status is a singing girl, and you are in danger in the army. I am afraid that if some soldiers drink alcohol and ignore military discipline, such small mistakes happen from time to time. From now on, you will stay by my side, don't worry, I will not hurt you."

Hearing this, Zhou Xian tremblingly said, "I know you won't hurt me."

But I said in my heart: Don't you worry that I will hurt you?

Guo Shao hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing. Instead, Zhou Xian took the initiative to ask: "Don't you ask me why I was sent here?"

Guo Shao pondered for a moment, then said: "The Lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty explained in the secret letter, please make peace."

Zhou Xian really wanted to ask him if he believed it, but isn't it too obvious to ask? It doesn't seem very good to betray Li Yu and Nantang Kingdom as soon as they come, and the consequences may not be light. Zhou Xian's heart was in a mess, and he was at a loss for what to do with the things before him.

But Guo Shao was very calm, and he didn't see any hesitation at all. Zhou Xian really wanted to know: did he guess those things, how much did he guess?

He held back a kind of anger, but didn't show it, as if he was cautious.

At this moment, Guo Shao said: "You stay here for a few days first, don't worry, I will take care of everything."

"What does General Guo want to deal with?" Zhou Xian asked softly, meeting his eyes for a moment.

Guo Shao was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The smaller the matter, the more troublesome, I can't explain clearly..." His expression was very sincere, "I can't say it, you have your own difficulties, and it will be more difficult to mess up if you talk about it."

Zhou Xian thought about his words carefully, and suddenly a glimmer of hope arose in his heart. That kind of delicate mind is like being locked in a dark room, and a ray of warm light suddenly shines in.

"However, first of all, I want to deploy the upcoming battle, and I don't have to stop for a moment." Guo Shaodao, "Li Yu has no sincerity to ask for peace, otherwise he should send Yuxi and Jiangbiao, not you."

At this moment, Lu Chengyong's voice said from outside: "Master, I have something to see at the end."

Guo Shao replied, "Come in and talk."

Lu Chengyong walked into the tent, cupped his fists and said, "The navy of Li Chuyun's department has caught up and is on the river."

Guo Shao stood up, looked at Zhou Xian again, and said, "Prepare the carriage."

Not long after, Zhou Xian was also invited to travel by car, but instead of sharing the same car with Guo Shao, a man and a widow, there was also a civil servant named Zuo You who sat next to Guo Shao, and Zhou Xian sat opposite. The civil servant named Zuo You didn't even look at her.

Under the escort of the cavalry, the carriage drove to the riverside.

Guo Shao stretched out his hand to pull the curtain of the car, and Zhou Xian was also shocked by the spectacular scene on the river. It is not an exaggeration that the sails are like clouds covering the sky. The entire river is covered with warships and Zhou Jun's flags, as if to block the river.

"My lord, they are all your warships." Zuo You said in a deep voice.

Guo Shao's eyes glowed with excitement, and there was a smile on his face. He sat upright, as if he was fending off his own army. Perhaps the shoulder scarf was tied too tightly. He grabbed the knot under his neck and shook his head slightly.

At this moment, Zhou Xian felt a terrifying aura from Guo Shao. Perhaps he didn't realize it, but his eyes were full of ambition at this moment.

Zhou Xian also saw an obsession with power in him, but unlike Li Yu, Li Yu was worried about losing power all day long, while the man in front of him was full of aggression.

The civil servants around him seemed to understand him very well, and said in a timely manner: "Soon the whole of Jiangnan will belong to the lord, and our territory will double in size, and the land in Jiangnan is rich and densely populated, and the population, money and grain are far more than doubled."

Guo Shao turned his head and glanced at Zuo You, and the two showed congratulatory expressions in a tacit understanding.
