Overlord's Road to Ancient Emperors
Chapter 95
Li Xu felt sad when he heard this, not only for the soldiers who died in battle, for the innocent people who died in vain, but also for Kou Xiao.The cruelty of war is hard for modern people to imagine, especially in the era of cold weapons, how much courage is needed to fight desperately with a knife and a gun. Kou Xiao was just a child who had just lost his father back then, and had to fight to the death with brutal pirates. Two years sounds easy, but it is really difficult to do.
Li Xu thinks that he can't do better if he changes himself. When the enemy threatens you with innocent people, do you obey or resist? If you obey, you will die. If you don't obey, the people will die. It can be seen that Kou Xiao chose the latter , but can you say he was wrong?No, these people will not die, and more people will die.
Li Xu also sighed, "It's okay for ordinary people to be afraid of him, but the officials in Fujian Province are also afraid that he is not suitable. Don't they know who General Kou is doing this for?"
"It's no wonder for them. At that time, a group of pirates fled into Minzhou City with a large amount of gold, silver and jewels. They thought that the most dangerous place was the safest place. They bought some officials in Minzhou and hid in their homes. General Kou After the triumphant return, he was exhausted physically and mentally, and the Kou family army suffered heavy losses. They were caught off guard by those pirates and entered the Kou mansion, killing many people. Fortunately, the general had five hundred guards with him all the time. Killed most of the pirates, but was run away by the leader. Afterwards, it was found out that many officials were involved, and several servants of the Kou family were bribed. General Kou killed them all and hung them on the top of the city. After three days of violent corpses, the power shocked the whole city."
Li Xu handed him a cup of tea to moisten his throat, and asked him about the Kou family's affairs, but the other party refused to talk about it, obviously he had some scruples.
After the guard drank the tea that the prince handed him, he realized that he had said so many words unknowingly, and almost wiped out General Kou's old background. It was only when I was fighting against injustice that I forgot that everyone had promised to keep secret about that matter.
He hurriedly found an excuse to escape, hiding from King Shun far away, hoping that he would not reveal this matter, otherwise he would definitely be attacked and killed by the crowd.
After Li Xu finished listening to the story, his curiosity was satisfied, but he couldn't sleep anymore, his mind was full of the picture of Kou Xiao's little figure fighting on the front line.
A 14-year-old boy, if he is late in development, has not yet begun to grow. Wearing his father's armor and holding his father's gun, he rushes to the forefront desperately. Just like this, he has to face various tests of human nature. If you win, people say you are cruel and don't care about the life and death of the people. If you win, people say you are useless and unworthy to lead the army. What a rare thing.
But the war really sharpens a person, you see it has only been a few years, how can Kou Xiao still see the childishness of 01:30 in Kou Xiao, it is not as good as him to throw out the Habayashi army one by one.
Just such a mess of nonsense, Li Xu opened his eyelids until dawn, seeing the radiance beyond the horizon, Li Xu suddenly jumped up, rushed to Kou Xiao, and shook him awake, "Kou Xiao, Kou Xiao get up , watch the sunrise with me."
Kou Xiao was about to wake up, but when he shook him like this, he thought something serious happened, so he jumped up and asked, "What happened?"
Li Xu smiled and pointed to the east, "Look, the sunrise over the sea is the most beautiful, let's watch the sunrise together."
For ancient people, especially for a military general, there is no such romantic factor in the mind of watching the sunrise. What is so beautiful about the sunrise? Do you want to eat?
Although Kou Xiao couldn't keep up with Li Xu's train of thought, seeing his joyful appearance, he couldn't bear to refuse, followed him to the beach, and found a rock to sit down on.
The sun was getting brighter and brighter, the sun showed a little bit of its head, reflecting most of the sky red, Li Xu took a sharp breath of the early morning air, and said: "It's so beautiful, if there is a poet, I will definitely be able to sing a wonderful poem. "
Kou Xiao glanced at the scenery he was familiar with, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "The sea is full of rays of light, the sky is full of birds singing, the vast water is surging, and the surging emotion is hard to get rid of."
Li Xu looked at him in surprise, "General Kou can actually recite poems? This sounds like nothing, you did it yourself?"
Kou Xiao glared at him, what is average?He did it himself, so it’s not because he did it if it’s good.But he is really not good at reciting poems and composing Fu, he said bluntly: "The last general is a warrior, it's not easy to be able to be polite once, please give me some face, my lord."
Li Xu laughed loudly, and clapped his hands to give him some encouragement, "It's really not easy, I won't."
Kou Xiao didn't believe it, "It is rumored that the crown prince can rule the world, martial arts and peace. Don't be too modest. If you want to criticize it, just say it. How about you come up with a song."
Li Xu smiled and shook his head, did not explain, he is not the original owner, even if he inherited his memory, he can't be a writer, plus he didn't study well in his previous life, the ancient poems he can remember are very limited, so he definitely can't pretend Yes, as for Wu Neng Anbang, it is even more nonsense. He is not even as good as the most ordinary people. Anyway, he has strength. He has been pampered and pampered for so many years, but he has never done any physical work.
Kou Xiao thought he had mentioned his sadness, so he said a little embarrassedly: "Is the prince unwilling?"
"How to say?"
"You are a majestic prince. You have been enshrined as a crown prince since you were a child and worshiped by thousands of people, but now you can only work hard in this barren and backward barbarian land. You have no rich clothes, no fine wine, no beautiful wife and beautiful concubines, and your life is very miserable. You are not reconciled to the bitterness."
"Do you want to hear the truth?"
Kou Xiao nodded, Li Xu leaned on the rock, crossed his legs and looked at the sky, and said sincerely: "It depends on where you look at it. If you lose the position of the noble prince, you will naturally lose a lot of things. But if I If you are still a prince, you can only live in the palace all day long, with endless knowledge, endless people, and endless flattery. What fun is there in such a life?
Now, I am poor, but I have status, status and authority, and I can accumulate wealth little by little. , in addition to these, I can travel all over the world, see the beautiful scenery of the world, and meet all kinds of people. The most important point is that if I hadn't been demoted to South Vietnam, I wouldn't have known you. "
Probably because the last sentence was so touching, Kou Xiao couldn't help but leaned over, grabbed Li Xu's hand and said, "My lord, don't worry, the general will always support you in the end."
Li Xu glanced at the grasped hand and wanted to pull it out, but the other party held it too tightly. He frowned and said, "Thank you General Kou for your support, but can you let go of your hand first?"
Kou Xiao's eyes gradually became deep, and he asked in a low voice: "My lord, you look very beautiful now, I want to kiss you."
Li Xu stared at him in disbelief, then felt a shadow fall, and something warm touched his forehead, he blinked his eyes, the hairs all over his body stood on end, he shook off his hand, lifted his foot Kou Xiao kicked down the boulder and scolded in a low voice: "Kiss if you say kiss, you are fine!"
Kou Xiao smiled on the ground, he knew that Li Xu's anger would not kill anyone, so why not dare to take advantage occasionally.
But judging from Li Xu's reaction, he knew that he was not a broken sleeve. It might be difficult for him to accept him, but it didn't matter, the person was right in front of him, so how could he be reconciled if he didn't fight for it.
Li Xu's saying is right, beautiful wife and beautiful concubine, he will have it if he wants, but before he has it, he has to do something first, otherwise how can he be worthy of his lovesickness and admiration.
Li Xu touched his forehead. The only person who kissed him in his two lifetimes was his mother. Kissing was also on the face. Kissing the forehead always felt too intimate. Fortunately, Kou Xiao didn't dare to kiss his mouth, otherwise he would have to dump him. A slap is not acceptable.
He jumped off the rock and kicked Kou Xiao again, looked down at him and said: "Kou Xiao, if you like men, I don't care, but if you dare to hit me, hum, be careful, I will castrate you! "
Kou Xiao subconsciously clamped his legs, turned over and jumped up from the ground, slapped the sand off his body, and cupped his hands towards Li Xu. "My lord, Nanyue is relatively open and there are not many rules. Everyone usually jokes around like this. I just saw that the glow reflected on your face just now was so beautiful, so I couldn't help kissing you. Don't worry, next time Certainly not." He added in his heart that if there was, it must be caused by involuntary feelings.
Li Xu didn't believe his words, did he pretend that he was only three years old when he was playing kisses between men? "I don't care whether what you say is true or false, in short, there will be no next time."

The team stopped and stopped, like a group of pedestrians traveling in spring. They would stop and play when they saw a beautiful beach. Sometimes King Shun would take them to fish in the sea or dig crabs on the beach. It's outrageous.
Kou Xiao didn't understand what kind of place Li Xu was looking for as a salt field. He remembered that Lei Zhan said that as long as there is a wide place to boil salt with sea water, he found a beach near the sea for the convenience of getting water, but because It is too close to the sea, and the sea has to be relocated when the sea tide rises. If the prince of Shanghai gets angry and there are strong winds and waves, the previous efforts will be in vain and you have to start all over again, so you can't cook much salt all year round.
But the result is gratifying, at least South Vietnam is self-sufficient enough, saving a lot of expenses.
Everyone doesn't know where King Shun is going, what kind of place he is looking for, and he has never paid much attention to any place along the way. If he didn't write and draw pictures on the sea every day, everyone would Thought it was tricked out.
Liu Shu, a clever ghost, has known Kou Jiajun all along the way. He is particularly able to recognize the situation and knows that Kou Jiajun will be their greatest support, so he put down his posture and coaxed a group of rough guys into joy, and he has the meaning of treating him like a brother. .
Li Xu didn't stop him either. This kid might be weaker in other aspects, but he is very knowledgeable about current affairs and knows who can offend and who can't. Even if he hates Kou Xiao sometimes, it's on the premise of ensuring that he won't get angry. .

small theater:
Old Gong: "I'm so happy today, I kissed my daughter-in-law on the forehead."
Li Xu: "You have the guts to kiss on the mouth."
Lao Gong: "..." Does my wife mean to let me kiss or not to let me kiss, please explain.
Li Xu thinks that he can't do better if he changes himself. When the enemy threatens you with innocent people, do you obey or resist? If you obey, you will die. If you don't obey, the people will die. It can be seen that Kou Xiao chose the latter , but can you say he was wrong?No, these people will not die, and more people will die.
