Chapter 181 His Pride
Chapter 181 His Pride
"This is the firearms loss table and the list of casualties in Huacheng. If there are noble children who need attention, I have circled the line below." Putting the two forms on the big table, Gu Zhiqiu didn't mean to look at the people behind the table. With a cold look on his face, he turned around and was about to leave.
For more than half a year, they have been in this state of getting along.
At the beginning, both sides didn't care too much, but when they really cared, the situation has deteriorated to a certain extent.
It's okay, can we talk about each other's thoughts again?
One hand hung down to his side and squeezed tightly, those broken and messy images flashed through his mind, Gu Zhiqiu forced himself not to recall, but the other hand wrinkled his clothes on his chest.
"Gu San." Staring silently at the back of the person, Jiang Baifeng thought he would be the same as every time before. After staring intently, he was finally unable to speak.
But at this time...
The young man stood tall and straight, but did not turn his head.
"Gu Zhiqiu... Zhiqiu..." This call seemed to be full of emotion and sadness.
"What's the matter?" Although he didn't turn around, Gu Zhiqiu asked.
It's just that his voice is respectful and cold now, which is different from the usual lecturing tone.
"How long has it been since I called you that?" Jiang Baifeng was very bitter, staring blankly at the back of the person in front of him.
"Why is the king so sentimental?" The tone this time was a little mocking, Gu Zhiqiu finally turned around, his eyes were sharp and menacing, "I used to think that you would always be the careless one who didn't take everything to heart You were a reckless man, but..." This time, even his voice became emotional, "Before I knew it, you have grown to the point where I am surprised."
Yeah, surprised.
After the death of the old king, he found him as a prodigal son and returned, and he did his best to assist him in his position. After he put on the crown, he continued to work hard and worry about every big and small matter in the king's district.
I'm afraid that Jiang Baifeng's unscrupulous appearance will break the rules and cause disasters.
Unconsciously, he assumed the responsibility of a "mother". He was too afraid that his "child" would fall and get hurt. In his heart, this naughty man would always need his support, otherwise he would definitely fall hard. somersault.
But until that incident happened, he saw too many things that he hadn't seen in the past.
After waking up from the muddle, the first thing to meet is the eyes of the world full of evil, and the man's... silence.
His indecision in the stormy city, his unreasonable hints after the dust settled.
Really helpless...does this man understand the feeling of suffocation that makes you want to cry but can't?
It was a knife stabbed from behind you, and the knife was still held in the hands of the person you firmly guarded behind you.
In the past, he only cared about cutting through the thorns and thorns ahead, but ignored the man behind him. No matter how mediocre and unassuming he was, he was still a real king.
Gu Zhiqiu always thought that he was doing a good job in dealing with various things, but he also ignored that the king who was useless and careless in his eyes actually gave him a lot of help in many cases.
This connivance far exceeds that of ordinary monarchs and ministers.
It's not that he didn't know that there was a group of people around his brother who were always keen to provoke their relationship, looking for every opportunity to make Jiang Baifeng lose power, but Jiang Baifeng never cared about this kind of words, but continued his leisurely life. Everything is entrusted to myself.
Have you ever been touched?How could it not be.
Entrust?Thinking about it now...
Ha ha.
What about yourself?As the next head of the Gu family, the current real head of the family also has too many people behind him, and those forces that survive around his family have long been tied to him.
Why do they want to be just a supporting minister forever, as long as they can make a further step, they can also obtain greater benefits.
However, due to his strength and Jiang Baifeng's absolute trust, these discordant voices in the royal district never really came to the fore.
All this... since when did it start to change?
Yes, those photos, the night that broke him in pain, those scenes that still make him shudder when he thinks about them.
When did this man have the power to compete with him?After he brought the important documents of the king's district to light cigarettes, and fell asleep on his stomach at the important meeting of the king's district?
Because of him, Jiang Baifeng didn't behave like a king too often.
Because of the lack of responsibilities on his shoulders, not only himself, but even the shrewd family patriarchs around him didn't realize that the unrestrained new king in the past had already grown up.
But just like he never had any ill intentions towards Jiang Baifeng, Jiang Baifeng never had any doubts or precautions towards him.
So he can live his life as King Taiping leisurely, the other party is of course happy, and only when this kind of real sword is facing each other, Gu Zhiqiu panicked to see his mouth full of sharp teeth.
In many cases, when the knife is raised, it is up to oneself whether to put it down or not.
"Are you surprised?" Jiang Baifeng stared at the man's smiling lips, and after a long time he said to himself silently, "Gu San, why don't you exist in another way?" After all, he still asked this question.
"Hahaha, another way?" Gu Zhiqiu also put away his disguise, and asked blankly, "You mean to be a plaything under you honestly?"
"Plaything? Why would I think that way? Gu San, don't you know what you mean to me?" A man who was rarely excited, his eyes were red now, and after standing up from the chair, he stopped his body , supporting the table with both hands, the tendons on the back of the hand are raised.
"Jiang Bofeng, I've been your brother for over twenty years. I didn't expect you to look down on me like this." Looking at the man for the last time, Gu Zhiqiu went straight to the door, and when he closed the doorknob, the man behind him said hoarsely : "The three cities have been lost one after another. You, the leader, have a great responsibility. The Minister of Defense of Huacheng is your old department. I will give you a month of preparation time. Next month, you will go to the united front on behalf of the king."
The hand that turned the doorknob paused, Gu Zhiqiu still showed pain in his eyes, but unfortunately the man with his back was invisible, even if he saw it, he might not feel distressed, this man was willing to push him to other places. Killed by the hands of others, how could they miss the past friendship between them.
Without saying another word, Gu Zhiqiu opened the door and left without looking back.
Jiang Baifeng watched him leave with complicated eyes, and when he disappeared outside the door, he collapsed in despair.
There was no other sound in the room except the sound of breathing for a full five hours.
at the same time.
Huacheng had just finished an offensive and defensive battle, and after successively taking down three satellite cities in the tenth district, the Alliance Army finally encountered a fierce resistance in Huacheng.
After three days of firefights in a row, I was stunned that I didn't take advantage of it.
Xiang Yang personally went to the front line and participated in the attack for the next two days. After paying a lot of money, after discussing with the leader of the [-]th district, he decided to stop and observe.
He took off the special leather jacket and threw it to the people on the side. He turned his head to the side and told his subordinates as he walked, "The people have withdrawn, but we still have to pay more attention to the movement of Huacheng. Don't think that they are afraid of us because they were huddled in the city because of us. , It is not impossible for the Jedi to counterattack sneak attack."
"Yes, Minister." Following him was his right-hand man who had been promoted from District [-], and then moved behind to follow a group of captains who led the army.
"You too, pay more attention to the movements in the [-]th district, don't think that we have only one enemy in the [-]th district here." Xiang Yang instructed again.
A group of people walked quickly while chatting, and finally arrived at his tent, and they were all gone.
His tent was naturally the most heavily guarded and located in the center. Although he was stronger than too many people after devouring the crystal nucleus, Xiang Yang felt very tired after fighting continuously.
He was about to go back to the tent to have a good rest, when he stepped into the space where the tent was, he stopped suddenly.
His face turned cold for a moment, and he quickly put his hand behind his back, and made a gesture to the guards who followed behind him.
Then he continued to walk forward, seemingly defenseless, but in fact he was already on high alert.
Finally, when he got to the tent, the two guards opened the curtain for him, and Xiang Yang bent down and got in, not revealing that he had already found out that the person guarding the tent had been replaced.
Although he had guesses in his heart, he was still more uneasy.
Who the hell was able to evade and replace the guards at the gate of his main tent in the tent where tens of thousands of people were stationed.
The curtains of the tent are not hung high, but the space inside is actually very large.
He didn't even straighten his back when he got in, and he held the light gun in one hand and pointed it straight ahead.
There was a low table for his office, and now even if he didn't look up, he could still feel the breath coming from that direction.
"Papa papa!" The rhythmic applause stunned him for a moment, and when he really looked up, Xiang Yang could no longer lift the gun in his hand, and asked in surprise, "King, why are you here?"
I didn't hear any news before!
"The response is good." Wen Renjue answered irrelevantly, and praised first.
Putting away the light gun, Xiang Yang remembered to salute at this moment, knelt down on one knee, lowered his head and respectfully said: "My king."
"Okay, okay." Waving his hand indifferently, Wen Renjue got up, stood on the spot and twisted his waist, yawning even more, "You did a good job, don't worry , I am here this time to wait for someone in person.”
"Who?" Xiang Yang asked instinctively.
Fortunately, Wen Ren Jue didn't pay attention this time, he shook his hand and replied casually: "Gu Zhiqiu."
