Chapter 32
"It seems that Madam is impatient to wait..."
Deng Mu glanced sideways at the hijab thrown on the wedding couch.
Zou Yu'er was stunned for a moment, and only then did she understand when she looked back. She was suddenly embarrassed.
The maid next to her reacted quickly, He quickly grabbed the hijab, put it on Zou Yuer again, and helped her sit back on the wedding couch.
"Uncle, it’s time to choose a hijab."
The maid handed over a bamboo stick.
Deng Mu sat down next to Zou Yu'er. The bamboo stick gently lifted up the red hijab again.
That shy, timid, and affectionate face came into view again.
Although they have met before, this is the first time that Deng Mu has admired her appearance so close.
He has to admit that the woman in front of him is so beautiful that it makes people's heart palpitate. You can say that she is dignified and beautiful, but she also exudes a kind of beauty. She has a mature taste that is beyond her years.
You can call her mature, but she is also charming, with an unsettled look on her face.
This is a woman who can make a hero bow to her.
Zou Yuer was embarrassed by Deng Mu and couldn't help but lower her head. He turned his head, not daring to look at each other.
"Uncle, miss, it’s time to drink Hexin wine."
The maid promptly offered two jade cups to relieve Zou Yu'er.
Deng Mu took them generously, put his arm to his mouth, and leaned towards her.
Zou Yu'er lowered his eyebrows shyly, and picked up the jade cup with his bare hands. After a moment of hesitation, , his arm was slightly clumsy and he took Deng Mu's arm.
The two drank the wine.
"After drinking Hexin wine, the ceremony is complete!"
"I wish you and your uncle a long life and a son soon.~~"
After the maid congratulated her on her good fortune, she wisely exited the bridal chamber.
The door is closed.
In the new house, which was lit by red candles, he was the only one left alone, a man and a woman.
Deng Mu was also an experienced person, so he was not so restrained. He skillfully wrapped his shoulders around Zou Yuer and put him in his arms.
Zou Yu'er snorted softly, her heart beating wildly, she could only lower her eyebrows and smile, taking advantage of the situation to take it into her arms.
"Madam, are you really willing to marry me, Deng Mu?"
Deng Mu held up her face, admiring her beautiful face. Their eyes met.
Zou Yu'er's heart beat even harder, and she was so nervous that she clenched the silk handkerchief tightly with her bare hands.
But she did not avoid Deng Mu's eyes, she only looked at him unscrupulously. gaze
"General Yide kidnapped me and gave me to my husband, but my husband treated me with courtesy. Yu'er felt doubly grateful."
"My husband is a rare and wonderful man in the world. With Yu'er's status, it is Yu'er's blessing to be able to serve her husband."
"My husband would like to guess whether Yu'er is willing to do so.~~"
Zou Yu'er stared at Deng Mu lovingly, expressing her feelings shyly but firmly.
How insightful Deng Mu was, couldn't you see that her words really came from the bottom of her heart.
But Deng Mu just asked casually and didn't think much about whether she was willing.
After all, he has ambitions in the world, so he doesn't have so much time to think about whether you love him or not, whether you are fake or sincere.
But Zou Yuer's affection still moved him somewhat.
Then the fire in my heart was burning, and I took advantage of the situation and pulled Zou Yu'er into my arms again.
"What are you going to do, husband?"
"The battle outside is over, but the battle between us has just begun. Madam, my husband is about to gallop!"
"Husband~~"
With a flick of his sleeves, all the red candles in the room were extinguished.
There are lanterns hanging high outside the window, and the moon is on the eyebrows
…
The next day, a celebration banquet was held in the county mansion.
In this battle, Zhang Xiu took the lead and all ten thousand Zhang family troops were wiped out. Only five thousand people surrendered.
Among them, there are nearly 800 Xiliang cavalry.
The inheritance of Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew can be said to be completely inherited by Liu Bei.
Liu Bei then reduced these five thousand soldiers to soldiers and selected their best men to be included in his command.
Eight hundred cavalry were assigned to Zhang Liao's command, and all were trained as Bingzhou wolf cavalry.
With one thousand wolf cavalry and fifteen thousand infantry, Liu Bei's hard power at this time is actually far superior to that of Xuzhou.
"The last general, Hu Che'er, pays homage to Ambassador Liu!"
"Cha'er is willing to ride the horse in front and behind for Liu Shijun, and will go through fire and water without hesitation."
As the leader of the surrendered generals, Hu Che'er came to the court to see him.
Liu Bei looked at the Xiliang barbarian general and asked curiously:
"Hu Che'er, I heard that you have been following Zhang's uncle and nephew for many years. Are you really willing to surrender to me?"
Hu Che'er sighed.
"In the end, I will follow the Zhang family for many years and go through life and death for the Zhang family countless times."
"But when Zhang Xiu learned that Wancheng had fallen, he became extremely crazy and cruel. He even ordered the massacre of Wancheng and killed all the people in the city."
"The last general's wife and children were all in Wancheng. How could he bear to have them slaughtered by Zhang Xiu, so he had no choice but to risk his life to remonstrate with him."
"Who would have expected that Zhang Xiu would not listen to the persuasion and even whipped the general in public?"
"The general was disheartened by this and had completely severed all ties with Zhang Xiu."
"Fortunately, the envoy defeated Zhang Xiu, secured Wancheng, and saved the general's wife and children from being massacred by him."
"Finally, the general will be grateful for the kindness of the envoy, so he should surrender to the envoy."
Hu Che'er told the story of the cause and effect.
He was also honest, and did not have such a righteous excuse. The reason was straightforward and simple: for his wife and children.
Liu Bei suddenly understood, and looked at Deng Mu with approval. He admired Deng Mu again in his heart. Mu's foresight persuaded him to treat Zhang Jiajun's family well, otherwise how could he alienate Zhang Xiu's men.
Even confidants such as Hu Che'er were disheartened towards Zhang Xiu.
"Hu Che'er, just because you can persuade Zhang Xiu not to slaughter Wancheng, you have already lost your merit!"
"Those more than a thousand soldiers from Xiliang will be commanded by you from now on."
"I am willing to come side by side with you, and we will help the big man together!"
Liu Bei had no doubts and immediately accepted Hu Che'er's surrender.
Hu Che'er was surprised and looked up at Liu Bei in disbelief.
Obviously he couldn't believe that the new master in front of him, who was from a humble background, had such a Waiting for his popularity, a thousand soldiers from Xiliang were all allocated to him!
"This Liu Xuande has a heroic demeanor and is assisted by strange people. No wonder Uncle Zhang is no match for him..."
After sighing with emotion in his heart,
Hu Che'er hurriedly knocked to the end and said with emotion:
"Thank you for your lord's trust, Che'er will definitely fight to the death for your lord to repay your lord's great kindness!"
Liu Bei smiled, then went down the steps himself, helped Hu Che'er up and sat down, and asked him to serve Hu Che'er some wine to calm his shock.
This approachable and generous act easily made this Xiliang general come back to his heart.
"I heard that General Hu is so powerful that he can carry five hundred kilograms and travel seven hundred miles a day."
"Congratulations, lord, for getting such a strong general!"
Deng Mu raised his glass to congratulate him and pointed out Hu Che'er's ability.
Hu Che'er was shocked and looked at Deng Mu in surprise.
This military advisor Deng really has great powers. He actually knows everything about an inconspicuous little person like himself. To this extent?
When Liu Bei learned that Hu Che'er had such magical power, he was overjoyed and couldn't help but drink a few more drinks. After a few drinks,
Liu Bei's mood gradually calmed down and he asked:
"Ziyu, Wancheng has been captured and Zhang Xiu has been defeated. What should we do next?"
Deng Mu put down his wine glass and slowly raised two fingers:
"It's very simple. The lord has to write two more letters."
