Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 1290 1290: Besieged on all sides [asking for monthly votes]

It is impossible to hibernate in hibernation.

Gong Xiqiu wanted to hibernate and have some leisure time, but it depended on his elder brother's consent. On the same day, Fang Yan used the excuse of "shortage of beds" to kick him out. This made Gong Xiqiu complain: "Brother, am I your biological brother, or am I someone you picked up?"

Jimo Qiu said: "I have to ask my parents."

Gong Xiqiu thought of Jimo Can's ashes urn, eating steamed buns with side dishes: "Humph, I really want to ask him when I go back this time!"

Jimo Qiu knew that he was having a temper, so he didn't care.

It's just a bit tiring.

It's not as if Gong Xiqiu is immature in his wisdom. He is actually in his forties, but his temper and behavior are still as willful as those of a naughty boy in his teens. Not to mention other things, just the rumor that "my eldest brother is about to give birth" will not become more and more outrageous as long as it is more prudent. Brothers get along day and night, how can he not know if something is going on?

First, men are normally infertile;

Secondly, even if you can have children, there is still a process.

Gong Xiqiu still felt wronged.

These grievances were instantly replaced by unwilling jealousy and anger when he saw the little red flower that seemed to be snickering. He pursed his lips sourly: "This flower is not my eldest brother's... child, so why do you raise it?"

Forget about Mama, who made her a sacred object in the clan?

Why can a flower be ranked ahead of me to bully him?

Is it possible that his family status is really that of younger brother?

Jimo Qiu said: "The situation is complicated."

It cannot be explained clearly in a few words, especially to explain it clearly to Gong Xiqiu, which requires twice as much saliva: "It... is considered a gift from His Highness. It carries the opportunity here."

Gong Xiqiu was really stunned when he heard this.

"What 'opportunity here'?"

Jimo Qiu raised his finger and pointed at the location of his Adam's apple, and said helplessly: "The secret cannot be leaked, I can't tell it. However, it was transplanted here by His Highness's hands, and it was irrigated and grown by my divine power... In a sense, Are they considered adoptive parents?”

Gong Xiqiu asked: "Why aren't they biological parents?"

Jimo Qiu shook his head: "Because it doesn't work."

Not to mention that in this life of His Highness, even the previous deity would not be able to give birth to an heir. Firstly, heaven and earth do not allow it, and His Highness himself can live as long as heaven and earth. If you still covet the continuation of your heirs, you will be punished by God if you are not greedy enough. Secondly, even if you use means to have heirs, the heirs are destined to have mediocre qualifications and a short life span like ordinary creatures. And there are many ups and downs after reincarnation.

If it was just an adoption relationship, it wouldn't be a big problem.

Gong Xiqiu felt a toothache when he looked at the flower.

Do Tan Qu and others know that their future Queen Mother is still a flower? He wanted to reach out and touch his future niece, but his fingertips were shaken by the green leaves that suddenly stretched out before he could get close, and the whole flower circled behind Jimo Qiu.

"Tan Qu and the others...won't admit it, right?" Although he still had many questions, Gong Xiqiu absolutely trusted Jimo Qiu, and when the latter was willing to tell him, he would naturally tell him. Gong Xiqiu was now curious, "Does Mama know about this?"

Jimo Qiu shook his head: "I probably don't know."

Giving flowers was a thing of the past many years ago.

If His Highness has an impression, it is impossible not to ask.

Gong Xiqiu gasped: "Mama doesn't even know that she has an adopted daughter? Will the origin of this child be unknown in the future?"

Jimo Qiu was not worried at all.

"We'll find out later."

In the future, if His Highness succeeds in overcoming the tribulation, and if he wants to successfully settle the cause and effect in the mortal world, he must have an excellent successor, otherwise it will be difficult to let go. The origin of this child's identity is just right. It itself was transformed into the hope and obsession of the human race, and was taken out of the holy land of mountains and seas by chance. If he can come to the human world smoothly, he must be the master of enlightenment.

Gong Xiqiu stopped talking.

Jimo Qiu has been with his younger brother for several years, and he has a clear understanding of his temper. To put it harshly, Gong Xiqiu stuck his butt out, and he knew what bad shit his old brother was holding back.

Then he reminded the other party: "This matter is rotten in the stomach."

"Don't tell Mama?"

If it was not Shen Tang but an ordinary master who rashly approached the other party and told him, "You can't give birth, so I've arranged a daughter for you. Do you want a cheap daughter?", a disaster would definitely be waiting for the brothers, but this is Mama, and she is also the father-in-law. The sacred object of the Xi clan, the relationship between them is already unusual. Based on Gong Xiqiu's understanding of her, she must be happy to accept it.

Maybe one day in the morning meeting, he will suddenly hold up his wooden staff and tell all the ministers that your future princess is here!

With it, you no longer have to worry about heirs!

As for whether the minister can accept it?

Why can't you accept it?

The Gongxi clan can turn into plants after death, why can't living people give birth to a flower? As long as public opinion is well controlled, you can still get away with it. The rest is left to time and Xiao Honghua's performance. As long as she has Mama's 70% ability to govern the country, she can basically secure her position as the princess! As for why it can't be the crown prince? Don't ask, just ask because the internal customs of the Gongxi clan are like this!

Gong Xiqiu: "Tell her, she will definitely be happy."

Jimo Qiu looked at the little red flower and said, "The time has not come yet."

The secret of heaven is still chaotic, and this disaster has not passed yet.

The memories Jimo Qiu inherited told him that what he lacked most was time and waiting. As long as you wait patiently, the fog will clear and the moon will shine. What's more, Your Highness is not only Your Highness now, she is also a mortal, the head of a country, standing at the pinnacle of power.

When it comes to the issue of heirs, Gong Xichou can't just say a few words to make people accept it. If someone takes advantage of it, Jimo Qiu can't prove it. Gong Xichou listened to his concerns and whispered: "Big brother is too worried..."

Jimo Qiu said: "There are precedents."

"When did it happen?"

There are precedents?

Jimo Qiu suddenly said: "Many years ago."

Gong Xichou: "..."

Every time at this time, he was glad that he didn't have too strong curiosity and a stubborn temper to get to the bottom of things. Otherwise, if he met a big brother like this, who was full of secrets, spoke in a veiled way, and said half of it and hid half of it, brothers would break up.

He stretched: "Will I know in the future?"

Jimo Qiu looked at his face that was similar to his own, and after a while he said: "When the time comes, everyone will know."

With this guarantee, Gong Xichou was not worried.

The remnants of the Southwest Allied Forces were not as lucky as him.

Kangguo adhered to the sixteen-character strategy of "When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy stays, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue", and chased the remaining Allied troops to the point of nearly disintegration. Most of the already scarce baggage and food were lost on the road. The morale of the army was shaken, and the number of deserters increased every day.

At the beginning, it was still possible to kill a chicken to scare the monkey.

Use bloody and violent means to deter soldiers who have the idea of ​​escaping.

As time went on, hunger, panic, and fatigue exceeded the critical point, causing the lower-level soldiers to almost collapse. Not escaping is a dead end, and escaping is also a dead end, so it is better to escape! There are so many deserters, and the Allied forces don't have so many people to execute if they want to catch or kill them. As long as they are lucky, who knows if they can't become the fish that slips through the net?

With a fluke mentality, more and more people took risks.

Mei Meng was not unaware of this.

It's just that she is too busy to deal with these deserters now.

"... Break out here." Her main focus now is on breaking out. As long as she can break out, she will have the opportunity to use the terrain fortifications of the nearest military fortress to completely escape. The escape route in the past few days was also paved for this. Others in the allied forces had opinions, but they were suppressed by the King of Qi. Even if they were full of grievances, they could only temporarily accumulate them and leave them for later settlement.

"The people of Kangguo are not fools."

There are scouts everywhere, and it is too difficult to hide.

Breaking out here is not the best plan. Once exposed, it is easy for Kangguo to cut off the last way of life. It is too risky.

Mei Meng said: "I have an old friend in Kangguo's camp."

As soon as she finished speaking, another scarred ally sneered: "I have heard about Mei Shang's past. Kangguo's courtiers are basically from the northwest. If there are your old friends among them, I am afraid they are not the guests of your youth."

Can this kind of relationship be trusted?

The validity period of the bed promise is only before putting on pants.

Some are unfeeling and will not recognize it when it is pulled out.

He thought Mei Jinghe had some ability, but it turned out to be like this?

The simple tent was instantly filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and everyone held their breath, as if a louder breath could set it off.

Mei Meng was not surprised by this.

She just carefully examined the value of the other party's body with the eyes of looking at goods. For any superior, such a look is extremely humiliating: "What do you mean by this?"

"Are you jealous? Or are you inferior?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Mei Meng said calmly: "Didn't you start trouble first? Guess why I had so many guests in my early years, but now I have become pure and abstinent? Naturally, it's because I have eaten good food and look down on rotten water."

"You——"

Mei Meng looked at the scar on his face that spanned most of his face.

The other party's right eyelid was drooping and sunken, and the eyeball had been gouged out. It looked ugly and terrifying. Who would have thought that he was a famous romantic talent before he was injured? He showed his goodwill to Mei Meng several times, openly and secretly, trying to truly conquer this woman who was second to none in Qi State. After hitting a wall several times, love turned to hatred...

"Who knows if you will take the opportunity to sell us to your mistress so that you can rise to the top?" Being humiliated by Mei Meng, he was angry and said something he didn't want to say. But this is also what some people worry about.

Mei Meng has an old friend in the Kangguo camp, and it is indeed possible that he will turn against us.

"Oh, you are worried about me? I am also worried that you will be disloyal to the alliance." Mei Meng held the remaining baggage and food in her hand, while the other families had basically exhausted their supplies, and they had not had many conflicts over food and grass in the past two days.

The King of Qi State came out to stop the quarrel between the two.

If Mei Meng was forced into a desperate situation, she would do anything.

Late at night that day.

Lu Jue received a bamboo tube secretly handed over by his confidant.

He took the bamboo tube, looked at the handwriting on the bamboo tube, and then looked at the confidant he had trusted for many years. Lu Jue promoted the other party to be his confidant and brought him with him, a big reason was that the other party was an old man who had released slaves from the Mei family back then, and his father arranged for Lu Jue to do odd jobs in the backyard to trim flowers and plants. Although it was a chore, the work was actually easy, which was a great treat for Lu Jue at that time.

Lu Jue always remembered this care.

Later, he returned to Sibao County and revisited the old place, and the two sides recognized each other.

Seeing that the other family was living in poverty, Lu Jue decided to take his youngest son to stay with him as a guard and took him to the battlefield. However, Lu Jue did not expect that the other party would find him with this thing. He was stunned for a moment: "Did anyone else see it?"

"Reply to the general, no one."

When he replied, his body was shaking like a sieve.

From the time he helped pass the bamboo tube, he exposed the truth that his family had been in contact with the Mei family. Lu Jue might have killed himself to silence him for his future, but the expected death did not come. Lu Jue crushed the bamboo tube and took out the note inside.

Lü Jue called for people to prepare horses and prepare to leave the camp: "I hope that when I come back, you have already thought of how to explain to me."

However, as soon as he left, his confidant hanged himself.

The remnants of the Southwest Allied Forces.

Mei Meng wore a bleached cloak and stared at the moon in a trance.

"What's that sound?"

There seemed to be a sobbing and resentful sound in the wind?

At first it was still vague and not very clear. She thought it was wild beasts and birds of prey in the mountains disturbing people. Mei Meng was about to listen carefully when the scout came to report that there was something unusual outside the camp. Kangguo sent people to sing loudly nearby, and they sang the nostalgic tune of the southwest.

Mei Meng was surprised and laughed.

Open-mindedly said: "This is the treatment of the King of Chu."

Being surrounded by enemies and isolated, it was quite appropriate.

She said: "Order the scholars accompanying the army to set up the military formation."

As long as they can't hear it, they have no killing power. If they want to sing, they can sing all night, even if they sing their voices hoarse. As the army array was deployed, the nostalgic tune in the wind was gone. As the time was about to enter the second half of the night, Mei Meng smelled the aroma of food in the air.

Gurgle, gurgle.

The soldiers who had endured hunger and fell asleep woke up one by one.

Smelling the smell, it seemed that they were even hungrier.

The scouts sent back news that several groups of people were cooking in the wind, and the air was not only filled with the aroma of rice, but also the aroma of human flesh. God knows how long it has been since the allied soldiers touched a little oil and water? Just smelling the smell made them drool wildly.

If they couldn't smell the fragrance, the soldiers could still tighten their belts and bear it.

They could smell it but couldn't eat it. This kind of pain was like someone stuffing a handful of worms into their stomachs. The stronger the aroma of the food, the more active these worms were, gnawing at their internal organs. As time went on, the camp, which was originally quite quiet, gradually became noisy. No matter how the squad leaders and centurions scolded, it was useless. The noise not only did not subside, but became louder and louder, causing people to be uneasy.

Hungry...

Too hungry.

This night was particularly long.

On the second day, many soldiers looked listless.

The Wuzu soldiers with martial spirit were better, but the ordinary soldiers suffered a lot and were listless. Even if they got more food today than yesterday, they couldn't smile.

Just after nightfall, a familiar tune came from the wind again.

The sound today was much clearer than yesterday. Before the allied forces took measures to isolate the sound, some soldiers couldn't help humming along, crying while singing, and their grievances and thoughts rushed out. This emotion spread like a virus.

The aroma of food pushed this emotion to the peak.

Mei Meng listened to the news that came in continuously: "The people of Kangguo... really like to use psychological tactics. How are they preparing over there? Tomorrow morning, let more people run away... Since they want to destroy the morale of our army, let them do what they want."
