The night was dark, and not a sound could be heard. Inside Marquis Jingan fu, a certain person's triumphant laughter could be heard.
"So I, Sun Hansan, have returned!"
Sun Lang excitedly patted the wheelchair under him … … oh, no, the chair. Spittle flew everywhere. He was very excited.
"The brave and valiant General Sun, the invincible commander, displayed the unparalleled art of war and extraordinary strength in a brave surprise attack, dealing heavy blows to the despicable and shameless traitors of the Empire. These vicious traitors of the Empire will definitely recognize the determination and strength of the people of Mingzhou to resist tyranny, as well as General Sun's prestige that is as hot as the sun!"
His voice was rhythmic, sonorous and powerful. This special speech technique should have been learned from a certain Korean granny on Earth. It had an extremely strong sense of oppression, scaring the three people in the audience into a daze.
He looked very pleased with himself. Soon after, he looked at the audience with a proud gaze, filled with the superiority of a winner in life: "Do you guys think I'm cool!"
The three men in front of him shook their heads in unison: "Not looking."
"… …" Sun Lang angrily said, "Aiyo, you guys have become so f * * * ing harmonious recently!"
Sir Lu Shouyan was the role model of a civil official, deeply understanding the principle that the leader must be pacified. But the problem was that he had been busy with official business these past two days, working overtime endlessly. Today, he had slept for less than an hour before he was called out of bed. He was in a daze and his brain was working slower than usual, so … …
— — Although he didn't know what "became so harmonious recently" meant, since the Marshal gave the order, then … …
He immediately turned his gaze to Sun Lang's crotch and seriously stared at it for a while before raising his thumb: "Marshal, so cool, so cool!"
"… …" Did this idiot become muddled from working overtime!
Sun Lang's face darkened.
On the other side, Qi Guanyan nonchalantly turned his head to the side.
Being called out in the middle of the night, Old Hu was the most unhappy. He was someone with a family, and his madam was about to give birth. He carefully guarded her all day and already had a tendency to be startled.
Logically speaking, it wasn't too difficult for a woman to give birth a second time. However, as a victim of his wife's singing before she gave birth, and being nagged by Sun Lang all day, he actually became scared witless.
Fortunately, Lu Shu-jen came to Mingzhou and gave Mrs. Hu a diagnosis. With this former China soldier in charge, Mr. Hu finally felt relieved. However, he was still very unhappy in the middle of the night.
Sun Lang looked at him and sighed. "Look at you. Why are you angry? Anyway, your wife is about to give birth. You definitely don't have a sexual life now … I don't think so, right?
Let me tell you, you can't mess around. Even if you believe that a rod produces a filial son, you can't mess around now … "
What the f * ck?!
Old Hu understood what Sun Lang was talking about in the blink of an eye. He couldn't help but spit. He had a good relationship with Sun Lang, so he didn't need to be polite and didn't need to be careful like Lu Shouyan. He rolled his eyes and asked, "You woke us up in the middle of the night just to talk about this?"
Sun Lang snorted and said enigmatically, "Of course not!"
As his good friend, Old Hu had already guessed most of it by looking at his appearance. He secretly sneered, "You finally got your retribution. Jump, jump, jump."
He put on a solemn expression and nodded his head, "That's right, to wake us up in the middle of the night, it must be something very important. It's better if we work together … Men, men, go get your family's Young Miss, Housekeeper Xu, Young Miss Zhang, General Zhao, Divine Doctor Lu, Young Miss Sima and …"
Sun Lang let out a burst of hearty laughter, abruptly interrupting Hu Shouxin's words. He waved his hand and proudly said, "This is a matter between men. Women shouldn't get involved!
Old Hu, it's not that I want to criticize you, but you need to change this problem of being afraid of your wife!
We men are the pillars of the family, we are the heads of the family. We have nothing to fear!
When has it been a woman's turn to come up with ideas for this kind of important matter! "
Old Hu coldly looked at him. "Oh, nothing to fear."
Sun Lang stared at him and said, "What, what are you looking at?"
Old Hu coldly said, "Nothing. I just want to ask, if you have nothing to fear, then why are you running?"
The atmosphere suddenly became very awkward.
Sun Lang opened his eyes wide and his face turned red. The veins on his forehead popped out as he argued, "Turning around can't be considered running!
This is … F * ck, f * ck. Hey, you two listen carefully, ah!
My wife! "
Old Hu could not hold it in any longer. He leaped up from his chair and pounced at Sun Lang, wanting to fight him. Sun Lang laughed wildly and said, "Do you think I'll let you have it easy?
This is the essence of the nuclear binding! "
Sun Lang, the former Marshal of the Imperial Army, was the biggest hoodlum in the world, a loyal supporter of the nuclear binding plan, an advocate of mutual destruction, and a great strategist.
Naturally, this was based on the premise that both sides had lethal weapons. He was the kind of person who would start promoting the nuclear non-proliferation treaty at the United Nations after he had produced enough nuclear bombs in Civilization 5.
Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Lu Zhou and General Qi could no longer sit still. They hastily pulled the two men back. Old Hu was so angry that his beard was blowing and his eyes were glaring. Sun Lang, on the other hand, looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
When Qi Guanyan saw that this was not going to end well, he had no choice but to be the peacemaker. He pulled the two men back to their chairs and said gently, "Now is not the time to joke around. Let's sit down and talk."
General Qi had just lost his wife, so it was not good for everyone to be too festive in front of him. Moreover, this time, Empress had led the army here. He was willing to come out and help, so everyone was very grateful to him. In fact, after he took back the military power from Hu Shouxin and gave orders, the response of the army in Ming Province had been much faster.
General Qi observed the state of Sun Lang and Old Hu.
With the pair of discerning eyes that he had trained over the years in the underworld, he could see at a glance that the Marshal seemed to be panicking. It seemed that something must have happened in the imperial envoy's camp that made him feel guilty.
As for Hu Shouxin, his heart was filled with a mixture of excitement and fear. It seemed that these two fellows had a grudge that he did not know about.
Under such circumstances, he naturally could not allow these two fellows to talk too much. Therefore, General Qi took up the role of the moderator of the meeting. He asked, "I heard from the Marshal that you went to the camp and caused a ruckus?"
Sun Lang proudly repeated the magnificent feat of leading 21 strong men from Arkham to sweep through the camp. At that time, he only told the story up to the first time they broke out of the encirclement.
For example, the embarrassing part where he returned for the second time and fell into a despicable trap was too much of a disgrace to his wise and mighty image. Therefore, he skipped over it.
After listening to his description, the three men gasped in unison.
Lu Shouyan's heart thumped heavily. For some reason, this kind of absurd thing, coming from Sun Lang's mouth, actually had a lot of credibility. With this kind of ability, it was no wonder he could survive in the Great Barren Mountains. He raised his hands and sighed in admiration. "Marshal's divine ability, I am impressed."
Even Hu Shouxin, who was very familiar with Sun Lang's former comrade, was shocked. He did not suspect that Sun Lang was lying. Although this bastard usually talked a lot, he would not lie about such an insignificant matter.
Old Hu was somewhat surprised and uncertain. "When did your martial arts become so strong?"
Sun Lang gave him a thumbs up. "I leveled up!"
His words were still incomprehensible.
Qi Guanyan's expression also changed. He digested this information and nodded. "I see. This is a good move. Right now, the people of Mingzhou are uncertain. The enemy is strong and we are weak. The person the imperial court fears the most is you, marshal. This demonstration will make Empress understand the situation clearly. What they need to worry about is not only your reputation, connections, and prestige in the Six Armies of Tianyuan, but also your destructive power as a top warrior."
Sun Lang smiled proudly. Just as he was about to boast about himself again, he heard Qi Guanyan continue. "However, if I may be so bold as to guess, the marshal should now want to fight or not. This confrontation with the imperial court should be discussed on the table, and not directly fought, right?"
Sun Lang nodded. "Yes. Since we have the initiative and have the right to choose, we should use this opportunity to expand our advantage and rope in allies, and not start a war immediately … It is still too hasty right now."
Qi Guanyan nodded. "Then we can't force Empress too much. Since the marshal has already given them a warning, the next step should be to adopt a gentler approach."
Lu Shouyan asked, "A gentler approach?"
Sun Lang crossed his legs and whistled nonchalantly. "Send someone to bring some things to express our condolences?
For example, clean clothes, tents, water, food, etc … "
As soon as he finished, Hu Shouxin and Qi Guanyan immediately showed sympathetic expressions. Old Hu rolled his eyes. "You f * cking used that thing again?"
Sun Lang slammed the table. "F * ck, I didn't kill a single person!
These peaceful weapons of mass destruction are so humane. They should be thanking me! "
Qi Guanyan and Hu Shouxin looked at each other and sighed. "Looks like this method can't be used."
Hu Shouxin nodded. "Yes, those who go to express their condolences might all be killed."
The general shook his head. "Then there's no other way … Marshal, you have to go again."
Sun Lang's eyes widened as he cried out, "Huh?!"
Hu Shouxin looked at Sun Lang's appearance and finally had a hundred percent confidence in his heart. It seemed that Sun Lang was not telling the truth. He had indeed succeeded in running into his two old lovers during his brave and fearless raid on the camp. Perhaps he had even been chased for several li by them with swords and spears.
He laughed sinisterly, feeling a sense of satisfaction. "Why are you panicking?"
Sun Lang said darkly, "Which eye of yours saw me panicking?
My wife isn't in labor yet. "
"…"
F * ck f * ck f * ck f * ck!
Why!
This bastard also encountered such a big scandal. How can he still be so arrogant!
Obviously, I also have something that can be used against him!
Why is he still so cocky!
Qi Guanyan saw that the situation was not right and hurriedly asked, "Marshal, what's the problem?"
Sun Lang said seriously, "I think, you just said that I'm the secret weapon of our side. Since I'm the secret weapon, I have to be the last to appear and maintain a sense of mystery, right?
So my role should be the final nail in the coffin. Only if I hide behind the scenes, they won't be able to see where I am. That's why they are anxious and feel threatened. Isn't that the logic? "
He patted the chair handle and said sincerely, "So, I think, in this first negotiation and meeting, it's not suitable for me to appear. It's better for you guys to go. I'll protect you in the dark …"
Hu Shouxin immediately saw through Sun Lang's wild ambition. What kind of f * cking joke was this? Let me go?
To deal with the questions of your two old lovers?
He shook his head decisively. "No, my wife is in labor!"
"…" Motherf * cker, this guy is still not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.
Qi Guanyan hesitated and shook his head. "Marshal, please forgive me. I don't want to go either.
I don't want to see that woman. After all, she's … "
After all, the upheavals that he had encountered in the past few days were the root cause of what happened more than ten years ago. Everything was related to the Empress Concubine. He really didn't know how to face his old master.
Sun Lang looked at Lu Shouyan.
Lu Zhou said innocently, "Marshal, do you think it's appropriate for me to go?"
"…"
In the end, the three of them looked at Sun Lang in unison, implying that he had to go.
Sun Lang was stunned for a moment before he said angrily, "What kind of joke is this?
I came here to ask you guys for help, but it's useless. In the end, you guys came to the same conclusion? "
'He said it!
He actually said it!
As expected, you don't want to go either! '
Qi Guanyan and Lu Shouyan were newcomers. They did not understand Sun Lang's mental journey and love life. Therefore, they did not understand the logic behind this. They could not help but look puzzled. The Grand General cupped his fists and said, "Marshal, do you have any questions?
Why don't you tell us so that we can help? "
Lu Shouyan chimed in, "Go ahead, Marshal. We'll keep our mouths shut."
Sun Lang was still hesitating when Hu Shouxin suddenly said, "Call Zhao Yunlong here as well. It doesn't matter if she knows about this."
Sun Lang waved his hand and said, "I've asked her to keep an eye on Yinluo and Young Miss Zhao."
"…"
'You're really thoughtful.'
'You're so familiar with this. You must have come up with this many times in your mind.'
Old Hu looked around and sighed. "Forget it, I'll explain … To put it simply, Empress is coming to Ming Province with the elites of six armies. Among them are Soaring Eagle Cavalry and Sky Majestic Town. The commanders are Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai … Do you understand now?"
Qi Guanyan and Lu Shouyan understood immediately.
Then, a strange expression appeared on their faces.
Some were amused, and some were mocking.
'No wonder the Marshal is so flustered … Putting everything else aside, there are already six or seven women living in Marquis Jing' an's mansion. All of them have unclear relationships with Sun Lang. If they run into General Lin and General Xue, the scene … Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk … It's too terrifying. '
At this moment, the feelings of the two feudal officials of Ming Province, Grand General Qi and Lu Zhou, could be described with two simple words.
'Think about it.'
However, they could not say this out loud. The Marshal's eyes were murderous, and his expression was sinister. He was like a peerless hero with a murderous aura that seemed to say, 'I'm ruthless and merciless'. Let alone thinking about it, even if they merely teased him, they might be pressed to the ground and beaten up.
Lu Shouyan was a dignified civil official. He was the first to react. He immediately cupped his fists and said, "I'm willing to share the Marshal's burden."
Qi Guanyan was taken aback. He said, "I see. So, this is what the Marshal is worried about.
Sigh … Loyalty, filial piety, etiquette, and righteousness … Truly … "
He was actually the one who could understand Sun Lang's dilemma the quickest.
Even if the truth was different from what he had imagined.
Nevertheless, he could still empathize with Sun Lang's feelings.
The battle on Great Desolate Mountain must have been extremely tragic. That was why the Marshal's resentment could not be quenched and he was valiant in seeking revenge. Even if the Rong Family was a Grand Duke family that had been passed down for generations, and even if his family was still waiting for him to return.
All life was bitter, and those who had feelings were sinful.
Qi Guanyan sighed inwardly.
'No matter what, I'm indebted to the Marshal. At the very least, I have to help him untie this knot in his heart.'
When he thought about this, he said, "Marshal, I'm willing to help as well.
If it's really difficult for you, I'll make the trip as well … There are some things that have to come to an end. "
Sun Lang was slightly taken aback. A touched expression appeared on his face. He was about to thank Qi Guanyan when he heard Qi Guanyan say, "Of course, the Marshal will have to be the leader. With us guarding you, at the very least, we can … Hmm …"
'At the very least, can you block a few sabers for me?'
Sun Lang was just about to complain when Qi Guanyan advised, "Marshal, I think that if there are feelings in your heart, there are some things that you should tell the truth as soon as possible. Don't hide it so that you won't have any regrets."
There was no sorrow on his face, but there was a bit of sadness in his eyes. There were some things that he would never be able to let go of in his life. He and his wife undoubtedly loved each other deeply, but they hid it from each other. They foolishly made sacrifices that they thought were noble and great, but they did not have the courage to face each other.
'If … if there was an' if ', then many things would be different.'
Everyone became silent.
After a while, Sun Lang raised his head and said to Old Hu, "Did you hear that?
Go and shout out your deep and heavy love to your wife. "
"I don't need you to care about my matters!" Old Hu said angrily, "Take care of yourself!
You brag about how brave you are all day, but in the end, you're scared like something! "
Sun Lang said angrily, "I'm warning you, don't slander me!
How am I scared!
Ah?
How am I scared?
I'm being generous!
Respectful!
This was his love for them!
I just don't have the heart to hurt everyone. Is that wrong?
I just want everyone to be happy. Is that wrong? "
Hu Shouxin sneered and said, "Do you dare to say these words to your close female friends?"
Sun Lang snorted. "Why wouldn't I dare …"
Just as he finished speaking, the sound of tiles knocking on the roof suddenly came. A moment later, one of the tiles was directly lifted, revealing Zhao Yunlong's face. "They're here!"
Sun Lang flashed to the window with a whoosh. He opened the window and was about to jump out, but in the next moment, he closed the window as fast as he could and cursed, "Damn it, Master Lu!"
He turned his back and leaned against the window, his face solemn and stirring. "The time to test our friendship has come!
You said you'd help me! "
Hu Shouxin did not say anything and took to his heels. Lu Shouyan followed closely behind. Qi Guanyan hesitated for a moment, then quickly ran out as well. These three bastards had no scruples and directly escaped from the front door.
"… Hey!"
