Zhang Wuji is still as good at deceiving people as ever.
Just a few simple words and more than a thousand beasts' heads brought the morale of the Ming army to its peak.
However, Zhao Min, who was standing not far behind Zhang Wuji, felt a little helpless. She whispered to Zhou Zhiruo beside her: "Hey, vixen, when he was fighting with me, did he often say these nonsense?"
Zhou Zhiruo gave Zhao Min a fierce look and said, "No, when we were fighting you, Zhang Wuji said that after we captured you alive, we would reward you to the soldiers and make them happy."
Zhao Min's eyes widened instantly: "Are you serious?"
Zhou Zhiruo looked disdainful: "Of course I'm serious. How could I lie to you about such a thing?"
Zhao Min thought for a moment: "It's hard to say. I think you are very likely to lie to me about this matter. That enemy is no longer a good-for-nothing. Even if we had a fierce fight at that time, he would never be willing to do such a thing to me. Otherwise, how could I quarrel with you every day now?"
…
A moment later, the army slowly moved forward, stepping on the corpses of the Japanese. After a long sigh of relief, Zhang Wuji finally returned to Zhou Zhiruo and others.
"I'm so tired. I didn't sleep well last night. I need to get a good sleep later."
After hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo glared at Zhang Wuji and said, "Hmph, you enemy, how dare you say that? Look at Xiaowu and Sister Su, what has become of them? You are going to go to the battle, but you can't treat them like this."
When Zhang Wuji led his army to the battle, Xiao Wu and Su Tanmei naturally came to see him off. However, they had been with Zhang Wuji for two consecutive nights, and with their physical conditions, they naturally could not handle it. Therefore, Zhou Zhiruo and others noticed something was wrong early in the morning.
Zhang Wuji's face was full of embarrassment, but at this moment, Gong Yu, who was still a little weak, hurriedly said to Zhou Zhiruo: "Sister Zhou, what are you doing? You, you can't say that to His Majesty. It is obviously my sisters who are useless. You can't put all the blame on His Majesty."
"You!" Zhou Zhiruo was speechless. No matter when and where, as long as she criticized Zhang Wuji, there would always be someone coming out to speak for him.
Looking at Gong Yu's weak appearance, Zhou Zhiruo was helpless: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you now."
As she spoke, Zhou Zhiruo walked towards the carriage not far away.
This expedition is thousands of miles away. After all, it is different from ten years ago. The family is richer and more affluent. More than a dozen accompanying carriages are enough for the women on this expedition to roll around and sleep.
Seeing Zhou Zhiruo leave angrily, Zhang Wuji felt helpless. After so many years, she really hadn't changed at all.
Afterwards, Zhang Wuji came to Gong Yu and said, "Yu'er, you just gave birth to a child, and your body is in a critical period of recovery. So this time, you should stay in Beijing. Over the years, I have not given you anything, but you have been trying your best to help me, and even gave me your only sister. I will remember all your kindness to me, and after I destroy Persia, I will definitely repay you well."
After hearing this, Gong Yu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Yu'er doesn't want your repayment. We are husband and wife. It was my blessing to meet you in that environment back then. You didn't despise me and even took me as your concubine. I can never repay your kindness to Yu'er even if I die."
As Gong Yu spoke, she actually began to shed tears.
Seeing this, the other women also felt a little emotional, but Zhao Min was the only one who looked disdainful.
You know, Zhao Min and Gong Yu knew each other much earlier than Zhang Wuji knew her. Even though more than ten years have passed, Zhao Min still remembers Gong Yu crawling at her feet and begging for mercy. At that time, Gong Yu was still Chen Youliang's concubine. Maybe she thought that a few years later, they would both become Zhang Wuji's women, and it was really a case of them meeting each other somewhere.
Zhang Wuji comforted Gong Yu for a while, and especially told her to take good rest and never let herself down. Seeing this, Gong Yu naturally agreed to everything in order not to make Zhang Wuji worry.
Afterwards, Zhang Wuji came to Xiao Wu and Su Tanmei again.
There was some embarrassment on his face, as if he remembered what happened last night: "Xiao Wu, Miss Su, was I a little too much last night?"
"Hmph, I'm glad you know."
"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. It is obvious that I am useless." Xiao Wu and Su Tanmei's answers were completely opposite.
Xiao Wu was so angry that she was speechless. She gave Su Tanmei a fierce look and said to Zhang Wuji, "Your Majesty, you are really something. Why are you always so persistent? However, I like it and I have never thought there is anything wrong with it."
"I don't come from a poor background, so I don't know about all the twists and turns. I only know that you are my man, and it is a woman's duty to serve her man well. Therefore, you don't have to think about those messy things."
"It's just, it's just, I can't bear to leave you. Xiao Wu can't speak, I just hope that Your Majesty can come back safely. Xiao Wu is not young anymore, don't make me wait too long, you are still in your prime years, at least you should let me see you from afar every day, right?"
"When you come back, when you come back, I will make noodles for you."
"Just like back then!"
After Xiao Wu said this, there was actually some mist in her beautiful eyes.
In Zhang Wuji's impression, although Xiao Wu doesn't know any martial arts, she is the strongest one. The past is still vivid in his mind. Who would have thought that the girl who had tried to assassinate him back then is now so reluctant to leave him and so devoted to him.
Su Tanmei on the side also said: "Your Majesty, you don't need to comfort me."
"Your Majesty will surely return with a great victory. When Your Majesty is away, I will certainly do my part well. The cabinet ministers will certainly not make any mistakes in state affairs. I am deeply honored by your love and kindness and have no way to repay you. I will do my best to supervise the ministers in handling state affairs and will never let the country make the slightest mistake."
"After Your Majesty returns, I will accompany you for another fifty years. Your Majesty may not know yet, but in fact, during the time you are back, as long as I can see you from afar, I will feel very happy."
"Everyone says that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent, but Your Majesty has given me a height that I never dared to imagine in my life."
"I, I am content with my life."
