Chapter 155 A Banquet
"It's still a bit cold!"

We are not straight men of steel, why don't we understand this?

Knowing this, I became excited.

Li Xiuzhu hugged Suru softly, is it still cold now?
Suru shook her head, Li Xiuzhu felt that it was more stable.

But Meng Haoran was startled when he lifted Suru's chin.

Looking at the rainy pear-blossoming face, he suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain.

"What's the matter, don't cry, it hurts me to see you like this."

Suru shook her head, she just shed tears and didn't speak.

Li Xiuzhu was silent for a while, and didn't speak anymore, just hugged her gently and patted her on the back lightly.

He understood that she was reluctant, but he knew it was wrong, so she cried.

If she insisted, she might not refuse, but she would be very sad.

How could it make her sad.

It was night, and the two embraced until dawn.

They just cuddle up against each other without even talking anymore.

After dawn, both Suru and Li Xiuzhu knew that it was time for them to draw a rest.

"Let's go!"

"Ok!"

The two entered the city, and the carriage stopped when it approached the Su residence.

Suru put on the bamboo hat again, Li Xiuzhu looked at Suru and turned her head three times at a step, and finally sighed in dismay after entering Su's mansion.

It took half a quarter of an hour to calm down, Li Xiuzhu unloaded the carriage, put on the saddle, and hurried towards Yanmen Pass.

Enough wasted time, it's not like he doesn't know how to ride a horse.

In addition, the army is now heading for Yanmen Pass, so he really can't waste any more time.

If he had two horses alone, he might be able to catch up with the large army before it reached Yanmen Pass.

Of course, even if you can't catch up, the time difference will not exceed half a day.

Fortunately, he was lucky, it was just past noon the next day.

When the army was still fifty miles away from Yanmen Pass, he rushed back.

"General! Where is your carriage?"

Li Xiuzhu glanced at Li Wuwei, and said lightly, "Should I still report my whereabouts to you?"

Li Wuwei was startled, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, my lord, but I've overstepped the rules."

Li Xiuzhu took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, it's not your fault, it's just that I'm in a bad mood right now."

"Tell everyone, go to Yanmen Pass for repairs after dark."

Although he didn't know why Li Xiuzhu was in a bad mood, Li Wuwei guessed that it must have something to do with the woman he rescued two days ago.

But the adults are not allowed to talk about that woman, they naturally don't know who it is, they just feel that the woman is a bit clueless.

The lord saved her, so he should promise her with his body.

My lord is young and handsome, and has a successful career, isn't he good enough for you?

"No, this subordinate ordered to speed up the schedule."

Qi Shaoshang and the others also found that Li Xiuzhu was back, but they would not come to make friends with Li Xiuzhu.

At the same time, Suru from the Su residence didn't sleep well all night.

The experience of being kidnapped was like a nightmare. When Li Xiuzhu was with her, she could still sleep peacefully. When she was alone, she was woken up several times from the nightmare.

And every time she wakes up, she appreciates that very reliable shoulder.

"Oh, sin!"

Sighing softly, Suru lay down again, staring at the curtain with dull eyes, her pupils dilated and she didn't know what she was thinking, she just smiled sometimes and sad at other times.

She didn't fall into a deep sleep until after dawn. Fortunately, she just returned yesterday, and no one came to disturb her early in the morning. Only the maid woke her up at noon.

On the other side of Shangjing, several women were also worried about Li Xiuzhu.

Especially Su Chengcheng.

She regretted not seeing Li Xiuzhu. That day, after her mother left, she went to the temple to pray for her mother, so she missed seeing Li Xiuzhu's brother for the last time.

It would be fine if brother Li Xiuzhu could come back, but if brother Li Xiuzhu couldn't come back, it would be hard for her to forgive herself.

Nongyue also felt bad, but she couldn't say anything to make Su Chengcheng feel even worse.

"Sister Nongyue, you said Brother Xiuzhu would definitely come back, right?"

Looking at Su Chengcheng who has been haggard a lot these days, Nongyue sighed and said: "My husband will definitely come back, you should also eat well, don't let brother Xiuzhu come back, you are broken."

"If that's the case, your brother Xiuzhu will definitely feel sorry for you."

Hearing this, Su Chengcheng looked at Nongyue and smiled.

"You're still talking about me, haven't you lost weight yourself?"

"Be careful to lose your appearance because of hunger, Brother Xiuzhu doesn't want you anymore."

The two girls couldn't help but wryly smiled at each other, and Nongyue glanced in the direction of the Su residence.

"The Su residence still hasn't sent brother Xiuzhu's letter?"

Su Chengcheng shook his head upon hearing this.

"If there is Yunshuang, it must have been delivered, and they should be anxious."

The army finally rushed to Yanmen Pass just before nightfall.

Zhu Zhinuo, the general of the garrison of Yanmen Gate, also came to the gate of the city before the army entered the city.

"My subordinate Zhu Zhinuo has seen the general, and asked the general to move to the mansion, and the subordinate will clean up the dust for the general."

Li Xiuzhu frowned slightly upon hearing this.

"Why are you still doing these things when Jiayuguan is under siege?"

"Prepare the place and let the subordinates have a full meal."

"Guanfang arranged for the soldiers to bring the captains and Qi Shaoshang to the meeting."

Speaking of this, Li Xiuzhu suddenly realized that he had no place to live.

"General Zhu arranged a place for me, and asked for it to be safe and reliable, without attracting spies."

Zhu Zhinuo hurriedly responded when he heard the words.

"General, my mansion is very safe, you just need to live in my mansion."

This time Li Xiuzhu didn't refuse again, he hummed!
Zhu's Mansion is more gorgeous than he thought, it doesn't look like a border gate, but more like a rich family in the capital.

Li Xiuzhu didn't say much about it, this matter is out of his control.

When the food was ready, several generals also came, and Zhu Zhinuo was with them.

Li Xiuzhu frowned slightly, and said, "Why is General Zhu here?"

Zhu Zhinuo was startled when he heard that.

"Didn't the general order a meeting to discuss countermeasures?"

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu said bluntly, "Isn't the guard at Yanmen Pass immobile?"

"Since this is the case, then just keep the Yanmen Pass and not lose it."

"Okay, General Zhu, go and inspect the city wall."

Zhu Zhinuo's expression froze, and he immediately understood that Li Xiuzhu didn't trust him.

Although he was annoyed in his heart, he seemed to know that it was normal for Li Xiuzhu to suspect that it was normal for him to stand still.

"Yes, I will take my leave."

When Zhu Zhinuo went down, Li Xiuzhu said: "Each person serves a bowl of food, we will talk while eating."

Li Xiuzhu had already picked up a bowl of meat and came to the sand table as he spoke.

There were a few small flags on the sand table at this time, Li Xiuzhu looked at it and said: "Master Qi, you must have come to pass the Yanmen Pass in the past, right? Is there something wrong with this sand table?"

Upon hearing this, Shaoshang Qi looked at the terrain and flags on the sand table, and said, "It's roughly the same, but I don't know if this is the case with the army representing Silla on the sand table."

Li Xiuzhu nodded when he heard the words, and looked at the sand table again.
