Han Cheng, he doesn't deserve it!
Although he still didn't know Gu Qingcheng's attitude towards this "marriage", Jiang Chi had a hunch that Gu Qingcheng would definitely not agree.
In this case, don't waste the food and money.
The Gu family is wealthy and has no shortage of these things, but they can't be fed to the dogs!
…
"...What did you say? What did Han Chengdu say?"
In the military camp outside the city, in the general's tent, Gu Qingcheng scratched his ears to confirm again.
Seeing that his lord, who was usually prudent and calm, was in disbelief, Jiang Chi, who had already suffered a wave of "stimulation", instantly regained his mental balance.
You can't blame me for losing control, it's just that someone is so weird.
Jiang Chi had seen people who lacked self-awareness, but it was extremely rare to see someone as dreamy as Han Cheng.
Look, the lord was "shocked" (disgusted?).
Jiang Chi, who was mentally balanced, patiently repeated Han Cheng's request.
Not a single word is left out and every sentence is restored.
Gu Qingcheng: ...
After a brief silence, Gu Qingcheng returned to normal.
Well, as a swan, it is inevitable that you will be coveted by toads.
Although it's a bit disgusting, you can't always let yourself fall into "self-doubt".
Moreover, Han Cheng will not be the first, nor the only one.
"Your Majesty, you acted so well before that I thought you were just a love-brained man who was throwing himself at men."
The source of trouble is someone who doesn't change his nature of just eating spectators and jumps out to join in the fun.
Gu Qingcheng: ...Do you need to tell me? Of course I know there are reasons for this.
However, Gu Qingcheng would not blame other people's delusions on her own fault.
The ugly man is just daydreaming, so is he blaming himself for being too good?
“Fight!”
Gu Qingcheng sighed. She really wanted to minimize casualties.
However, since Han Cheng made such a request, there is no possibility of "peace talks" between the two sides.
Then we can only fight!
It just so happens that Gu Qingcheng also needs to show the world——
She, the daughter of the Gu family, is not just a love-struck woman who is willing to give everything for a man.
She is also a female hero who is capable of decisive killing and plundering cities.
"Okay! Then fight!"
Jiang Chi knew that his lord would never be someone who would willingly endure such humiliation.
This is not to say that one should act on impulse. After all, for politicians, the key is to be able to bend and stretch.
But, it is also said that one can bend, not bend "casually".
If she had to tolerate even a guy like Han Cheng, Gu Qingcheng was destined to never become a banner in troubled times.
The lord can be tolerant, but he cannot be tolerant without principles and bottom line.
Otherwise, those who follow her will not be able to tolerate such a depressed and cowardly lord!
"Sir, it seems you already have a plan!"
Seeing Jiang Chi's resolute attitude and confidence, Gu Qingcheng smiled.
In fact, she also has a certain plan.
But since you have a counselor like Jiang Chi by your side, why not use it?
Those in power do not need to know how to do things, they just need to know how to use people well.
"My Lord, this is possible..."
Jiang Chi raised the corners of his mouth, smiling calmly and confidently.
It seemed as if everything was already in his plan.
The next day, Han Cheng did not receive any "reply" from Jiang Chi.
However, the Gu family’s military camp suddenly became lively.
Outside the moat, it is only three or four hundred meters away from the city wall.
This distance is far greater than the range of a bow and arrow.
In ancient times, the maximum range of a bow and arrow was about one hundred steps, or between one hundred and twenty meters and two hundred meters.
Being too close to the city wall, it is easy to become a target for the guards on the city wall.
If the distance is too far, the "effect" will not be very good.
As for the effect, the soldiers on the city wall soon found out.
"Huh? What are they doing?"
"Burying the pot? Are they going to cook?"
On the city wall, the guards couldn't help but feel curious when they saw the people in the Gu family camp busying in and out like ants.
They lay on the parapet, leaning forward to look down.
Then, they discovered that the soldiers of the Gu family were cooking.
A very big black pot with a fire underneath.
Soon, the fire was lit, and firemen in white overalls were busy around the cauldron with shovels.
"Is that meat? It's such a big pot!"
"There's more than one basin. There's a big basin next to each big pot."
"One, two... six... nine, ten!"
There were ten big pots and ten big pots of meat.
The soldiers on the city wall couldn't help but drool.
The temptation from the meat reached its peak when frying sugar color and stir-frying the pork belly.
"Smells good! It smells so good!"
"Is it sweet? Did you add sugar to the dish?"
"...I've heard that the Gu family is very wealthy, but I never thought they would reach this level."
"It's just a pretense. Who would really be willing to let the lowest-ranking soldiers eat meat?"
"Not necessarily! I heard that the girl from the Gu family is the most generous. When King Liang was still around, our Chen family army could rely on the girl to have enough food. I heard that this is the girl from the Gu family's request. We must ensure that the soldiers are well fed and well watered!"
"...It's a pity that Prince Liang broke off the engagement. Without the good wife like the daughter of the Gu family, now..."
Alas, no wonder the ancients often said "A virtuous wife brings less trouble to her husband". Chen Duan has ruined his own blessing.
I just don't know who else can win Miss Gu's favor, and then...
Slurp!
It smells so good, so overpowering that the soldiers can no longer think of anything else.
They just want to eat meat...
