Chapter 322: The Old Man of the Moon


Qiao Zhiqing walked out of the study and went directly to Yan Yuting's room.Since Yan Yuting returned to work, for convenience, she moved back to Qiao Zhiqing's courtyard.Hui'er was also sitting in Yan Yuting's room with a bitter face at this time, and after Qiao Zhiqing entered the door, as soon as the little girl saw him, she was about to cry aggrieved."

Brother Qiao, why did you marry me to others, didn't you promise to respect my opinion" Hui'er pouted and looked at Qiao Zhiqing with wide eyes, and asked pitifully."

You can persuade her again, I still have a case in my hand, let's go first" Yan Yuting shrugged her shoulders helplessly at Qiao Zhiqing, explained to him in a whisper, and went out.She had persuaded Hui'er for a long time just now, but this little girl was not as obedient as her sister at all, and her temper was stubborn.There were only two people left in the room, Hui'er and Qiao Zhiqing, and Qiao Zhiqing sat down opposite her, looking directly at her lovely face."

Hui'er, Brother Qiao, this is for your future.What you are like in your heart, Brother Qiao also knows.Brother Qiao can't give you any name, but Zhang Zongyu can.He's also a good-looking boy, and I'm sure you won't be disappointed when you meet him. ”Qiao Zhiqing comforted Hui'er in a soft voice, somewhat helpless.Now that the reform of the Huaxing Army is imminent, he must grasp several key generals in his hands.This ancient method of marriage is also the most direct and effective."

Brother Qiao, I beg you, just let me stay by your side and take care of you, okay, I don't want any name, even if I want to be your little maid for the rest of my life."

Hui'er burst into tears with excitement, grabbed Qiao Zhiqing's hands, and her face was full of pleading."

Hui'er, you're not love, you're dependent.You mistakenly regard your dependence on Big Brother Qiao as the love you should have.You are still young, and there will be many people in your life, and Brother Qiao is definitely not your end. ”Qiao Zhiqing took out a silk scarf and wiped her tears, and repeatedly hesitated in her heart, whether it was too cruel to this little girl.But no matter how beautiful love is, it's a fairy tale, people will always grow up, and they can't always live in fairy tales.I can't give this little girl a life, Zhang Zongyu can do it, that's where she belongs."

Brother Qiao, am I so annoying to you" Hui'er stepped forward delicately and fell into Qiao Zhiqing's arms, sobbed a few times, and slowly calmed down."

Fool, it's too late for Qiao Zhiqing to pity you, how can he hate you.You have always been like a little sister in Brother Qiao's heart.My sister always has to get married, stay by my brother's side, and don't let others laugh at her" Qiao Zhiqing stroked her hair and smiled, he really always treated Hui'er as a sister.This kind of affection is completely different from Zeng Jiyun's, even if she is sometimes suddenly moved by Hui'er.That's also driven, definitely not love."

Liar, big liar."

Hui'er relieved herself and pinched Qiao Zhiqing's waist fiercely.He pouted and cursed, and then straightened up."

Hui'er, Brother Qiao is thinking about your life's events.Zhang Zongyu is a good young man, you better get along with him for a while first.It's really not good, Brother Qiao will introduce you to another one. ”Qiao Zhiqing has been doing it all the way to the end this month, and when he saw that Hui'er was calming down, he persuaded while the iron was hot.made it clear that he would not marry Hui'er and would not give up."

Alright, alright, I promise you won't."

Hui'er pouted and said, seeing that Qiao Zhiqing was resolute, it was not good to force him anymore.Qiao Zhiqing told her about it a few days ago, and she thought Qiao Zhiqing was joking.When this day really came, she felt that it was really impossible for her and Qiao Zhiqing.After Qiao Zhiqing returned to the study with Hui'er, he introduced the two to each other.As soon as Zhang Zongyu saw Hui'er, he no longer had any worries in his heart, and his eyes were straight.After learning about Hui'er's position as Minister of Culture, he was even more surprised.Hui'er was also stunned when she saw Zhang Zongyu, and Xiao Nizi usually got along with Qiao Zhiqing in the presidential palace.The first time I saw such a handsome general, I also chuckled in my heart.Qiao Zhiqing left some space for the two of them to chat in the study, and silently exited the door.Yan Yuting happened to come back from outside, and when she saw Qiao Zhiqing, she chuckled and pulled him to the gallery pavilion and sat down."

President Qiao, don't you feel pain in your heart if you give away your little Lori so cheaply" Yan Yuting teased Qiao Zhiqing with a wicked smile on her face."

Come on, don't taunt me.Hui'er is a good girl, and she was delayed by my side.I don't want to learn from those emperors, the three palaces and six courts don't stop every day. ”Qiao Zhi glanced at her innocently, looked at her teasing eyes, and couldn't wait to be ravaged under him immediately.At this time, the door opened, and Hui'er and Zhang Zongyu came out of the house talking and laughing."

Brother Joe."

As soon as Hui'er went out, she called out to Qiao Zhiqingjiao, "I promise you that I will marry Commander Zhang as my wife." ”Qiao Zhiqing was stunned for a moment, looking at Hui'er's appearance, it didn't look like she was crazy, and it only took a few minutes to figure out the problem."

Sister Hui'er, congratulations.My sister will personally organize the wedding for you when the time comes. ”Yan Yuting reacted quickly, and she held Hui'er's little hand together, talking and laughing."

Zong Yu, are you a good kid, you didn't disappoint Ben Shuai."

Qiao Zhiqing chuckled and patted Zhang Zongyu on the shoulder."

Thank you for being a matchmaker, Hui'er is a good girl, I will definitely cherish her."

Zhang Zongyu replied with a smirk, and his eyes never left Hui'er."

Okay, that handsome man is waiting to drink your wine."

Qiao Zhiqing laughed brightly, and looked at Hui'er who was sincerely happy for her.Although Hui'er was full of smiles, there was a trace of sadness in his eyes.Qiao Zhiqing hurriedly avoided his eyes and ordered Zhang Zongyu to go back to the barracks first to arrange military affairs.Wait until tomorrow to call his uncle Zhang Lexing and officially set a good day for the two.Zhang Zongyu said goodbye to everyone happily, and after retreating, Qiao Zhiqing looked at Hui'er and shook his head with a chuckle, turned around and went back to the study to get busy with business.Yan Yuting also had official business, blessed Hui'er a few words, and also returned to the office.Hui'er was the only one left in the corridor, and Hui'er didn't want to embarrass Qiao Zhiqing anymore, so she didn't go to the study to find Qiao Zhiqing again.went to Huang Feihong's yard alone and told his sister the news.In fact, at this time, her heart was very blocked, as if she had suddenly lost her dream, and she just wanted to talk to her sister.Qiao Zhiqing stayed in the study for a while, and Wei Ziyou took the military report sent back from Chongqing into the study."

Brother Qiao, why did Sister Hui'er cry just now, you bullied her" Wei Ziyou handed the military report to Qiao Zhiqing's hand, and asked for some reason."

How could it be, I just found her an in-law's house, I guess the little girl is happy."

Qiao Zhiqing denied it, but he suddenly felt a little sad in his heart, and looked down at the military newspaper."

Oh, I see.This Hui'er, we are still good sisters, and they won't tell me about such a big thing. ”Wei Ziyou complained with a smile, sat down on the couch, and waited for Qiao Zhiqing's approval."

Ziyou, is there any news from the Navy recently" Qiao Zhiqing looked at the military newspaper in his hand, compared it on the map, and asked intently.According to Zhang Shusheng and Zhang Yuchun's report, Li Shixian has sent a large army to besiege Chongqing in the past few days, and I am afraid that he will send a naval army to cut off the waters of Chongqing."

No, according to the plan, the South China Sea Fleet and the East China Sea Fleet will not be able to return for half a month."

Wei Ziyou shook his head and spit lightly."

Half a month, then let the Taiping Army be arrogant for another half a month."

Qiao Zhiqing immediately approved the military newspaper, but still asked Zhang Shusheng and Zhang Yuchun to stay put.Fight a war of annihilation within a limited scope, but never stretch the front too long.Even if Qiao Zhiqing did not approve it, Zhang Shusheng and Zhang Yuchun would not risk a long-distance trip to Chengdu.After all, their troops are all new recruits who have just entered the battlefield, and they can cope with it if they rely on the advanced firearms in their hands.In the event of an emergency, it is far less advantageous than the Taiping army, which often fights on the battlefield.Qiao Zhiqing received the military report five days ago, and at this time, the Taiping army's navy had blocked the waterways in Chongqing.Lu Shunde, the commander of the rear army, has been running the navy for many years, and naturally has some strength in his hands.The reason why Li Xiucheng gained a firm foothold in Sichuan after he came out of Nanjing was because of Lu Shunde's navy.This time the naval army blockaded Chongqing, and Lu Shunde almost moved out the warships that pressed the box.In terms of tonnage, there are more than a dozen warships of thousands of tons.Although it is a wooden ship, it still has the feeling of a behemoth in the Yangtze River.The main target of the Taiping army this time was Yongchuan County, and Lu Shunde led the rear army to completely block the waterways of Chongqing in order to contain the Huaxing army in Chongqing.Fan Ruzeng led the right army to Rongchang County in the west, Li Shangyang led the Chinese army to Bishan County in the north, and Lian Yekun led the front army to Jiangjin County in the south.The three armies completely surrounded the Huaxing Army in Yongchuan County from the south, north, and east.Wu Xuming, who was stationed in Yongchuan County, had already sent people to bring grain, grass and ammunition from Chongqing, and was waiting for the Taiping army to come.This time, Li Shixian also followed the right army to set up a general headquarters in Rongchang County, and looked at the corpses of the Taiping Army that had rotted inside and outside the city wall, and his heart was as uncomfortable as a knife cut."

King Servant, King Dai's body is here."

Fan Ruzeng sent soldiers to clean up the battlefield, found Huang Chengzhong's body on the city wall, and hurriedly shouted to Li Shixian.Li Shixian relieved himself and hurriedly ran forward, looking at the bloody knife in Huang Chengzhong's hand, he couldn't help but tremble, and knelt down on one knee with Huang Chengzhong."

King Dai, why don't you hold on a little longer.This king is going to help you, why do you want to leave this king" Li Shixian lost his beloved general, let out a long howl of sadness, and actually shed tears of heart."

The king was killed by Tong Ronghai, Peng Dashun and Yu Shilong.If they hadn't killed all the soldiers in the city, the Huang brothers would not have committed suicide in despair.The top priority is to catch these dog thieves, capture Yongchuan County, and use their blood and the blood of the Huaxing Army to avenge the Huang brothers. ”Fan Ruzeng scolded fiercely, thinking of Tong Ronghai and his party, they were even more resentful than Hua Xingjun
