Chapter 501 Conclusion (one more)
The old Huguogong was also very angry when he was stared at by his grandson.
He asked Zhou Gu, "She gave you a marriage letter, what about Ye Guixue?"
Zhou Gu hummed, "Before Ye Guixue left Beijing, she had already divorced him."
The old Hu Guogong was surprised and looked at Su Xingze.
Su Xing nodded to the old Huguogong.
The old Huguogong scolded, "Stinky girl, you are making fun of the marriage."
"Not really." Zhou Gu retorted, "She did it for me. She said there was no other way. She had already made up her mind, but she couldn't help being soft-hearted towards me. So when she found out, she canceled Ye Guixue's engagement in time to avoid it being difficult to end in the future."
As he spoke, he became somewhat proud again, and solemnly emphasized, "Grandfather, did you hear her saying that she was soft-hearted to me?"
Old Duke Hu Guo heard it naturally, "You are so shameless, people can't do anything about you, and you are still proud? What are you proud of?"
Zhou Gu said shamelessly: "Prove that she likes me."
The old protector snorted.
Grandfather and grandson come and go, this kind of situation can only appear in front of the old Huguogong. And from childhood to adulthood, the two stayed together, and there were very few times when they were harmonious and not bickering.
Zhou Wei smiled and asked: "Third brother and fourth brother have been busy all the way, should they be hungry? Let's eat first."
Zhou Gu touched his stomach, "I'm hungry."
Zhou Che also nodded, "I have been on this journey without much rest. Although there is a letter from Miss Seven saying that Zhang Yunhui won Zhang Ping's 250,000 Hebei Army, but I don't know if it is really reliable. So, the fourth brother and I did not dare to relax. We have been on the road. I want to reconcile with my grandfather earlier."
"Huh? What Zhang Yun?" asked the old protector.
Zhou Che quickly told about Su Rong's taming of Zhang Yun.
The old Hu Guogong was surprised, "It's like this?"
Zhou Gu raised his eyebrows, "Talents are rare, if Xiaoqi can catch them, he will naturally catch them."
"That's right, the little girl has some abilities, which are unexpected." The old Huguogong has always known that Su Rong is capable, but he doesn't know that apart from her ability, she is also so broad-minded. You must know that she almost died in the hands of Zhang Yun and Nangong Yu. "If Zhang Yun's letter is true, then it is really a great achievement to win the military power of the Northern Hebei Army without bloodshed."
It can be predicted that if this battle breaks out, how many people will die. It would be best if people could not die. After all, they were Daliang's own soldiers.
"So, grandfather, why don't I go to Southern Chu?" Zhou Gu took advantage of the opportunity, as if insisting on the old Huguogong's approval of his correct decision, "The crown prince and her will be the masters of the Ming Dynasty in the future. She has made such great contributions to Daliang, saved the flames of war, and lost lives. Can't I be replaced?"
The old Huguogong was annoyed, but he didn't refute this.
Zhou Gu smiled suddenly, "Grandfather, although Nanchu is far away, it is not far away. We will still come back to visit our relatives in the future."
No matter how reluctant the old protector was, he also knew that he couldn't keep this grandson, "Shut up."
Zhou Wei sighed, "Fourth brother, you have abandoned your family and career. Our family members are reluctant to part with you."
"Then you can learn from Uncle Su, Aunt Su, and uncle." Zhou Gu put his hand on Su Xingze's shoulder, "They won't follow to Nanchu either. Write more letters if you want."
What I said this is really beyond my control.
Someone brought food, Zhou Gu and Zhou Che were indeed hungry, so they stopped talking, picked up their chopsticks and started to pick up the rice.
The old Huguogong called for someone to come and ordered, "Pay close attention to the movements of the Northern Hebei Army. Once there are movements, report them in time."
Someone should be, go immediately.
After eating, Zhou Gu and Zhou Che were very tired, so they went to the tent to sleep together.
Old Huguogong, Zhou Wei, and Su Xingze were all sitting and chatting together without feeling sleepy.
Zhou Weidao: "Grandfather, if it is true what the third and fourth brothers said, that Zhang Yun can win Zhang Ping's 250,000 soldiers and horses, and we really don't have to fight this battle. Do you think this luck has this ability?"
After hearing what Zhou Gu and Zhou Che said, since Zhang Yun agreed to join him, he must be sincere, but Zhang Ping's grandson is not someone who can be fooled easily.
"This Yun Xiaoer, since he can subdue the little girl Su Rong regardless of past suspicions, it can be seen that she really has some skills. He was picked on through the Zhang family's hidden stake, speculated on Su Rong's location, and secretly cooperated with Nangong Yu to kill her. He also showed up before Nangong Yu arrived. I was sure that Su Rong would not do anything to him easily, so that the little girl stumbled. It can be seen that the kid guesses people's hearts and schemes very deeply. He is a good hand." Protecting the country is fair: "Zhang Ping can guard against outsiders, but he may not be able to guard against his own son. It is very likely that he will succeed."
Su Xing nodded aside, "The old man said so."
He said: "At first, I asked His Royal Highness for an order to be transferred to the north of Hebei, and His Royal Highness also agreed. Therefore, to prepare, I read the dossiers of the Pingxi General's Mansion in the Eastern Palace. This fortune, it can be said, is a very special person. He has been in charge of all the hidden stakes of the Zhang family since he was thirteen years old. It took countless times before Zhang Ping valued the person who handed over the most important hidden stakes of the Zhang family to him. Zhang Ping valued him, which shows that he Knowing Zhang Ping's temperament very well, the possibility of success is very high."
Zhou Wei was relieved when he heard the words, "Then shall we just wait?"
The old protector nodded, "Wait!"
Zhou Che slept for a whole day, but he still couldn't sleep soundly. Even if he was very tired, Zhou Gu didn't. He slept for two full days, as if he wanted to make up for the lack of sleep these days.
Old Huguogong asked several times, but he knew that he was still sleeping, so he blew his beard and stared, "This kid can sleep soundly."
Zhou Che said: "Fourth brother has worked hard for the past few days, so he should take a good rest."
The old guardian of the country glanced at him, "Zhang Yun's ability to slip away before your eyes shows that you are not smart enough to march and fight. You should take it as a warning. After all, he is not alone, but has more than 40,000 soldiers and horses. With such a huge number, it stands to reason that no matter how well the mopping is done, there will be traces, and it shouldn't be undetectable."
Zhou Che kept the lesson in mind, "Yes, grandfather, grandson will take this as a warning."
When Zhou Gu woke up, he was refreshed. He felt refreshed after days of exhaustion. He also woke up very well. After he woke up, after eating, a spy came to report, "Report, Old Duke, the Northern Hebei Army is no longer marching, and it seems to have turned back."
"Huh?" The old protector was stunned.
Zhou Gu was the first to react, and immediately smiled, "Zhang Yun succeeded."
Zhou Wei stood up abruptly, and asked the scout, "Are you sure?"
"It's correct. It has been confirmed again and again. The North Hebei Army originally had a day and a half to go to Changzhou, but it stayed there for half a day. Then, it hung up the white sail and turned back. It was in the direction of Longxi County."
"Zhang Ping is dead." Zhou Gu concluded, "Only when Zhang Ping is dead will the white sail be hoisted, and Zhang Yun will return to Longxi County after taking over the Jibei Army. Because he doesn't know that I will come to reconcile with my grandfather, and he is afraid that the two sides will fight, so it is better to go to Longxi County and reconcile with Su Rong."
