Chapter 475: Cousin is so good
The Empress, true to her word, burned Gu Xiaoxiao to ashes. Just as she was about to continue reviewing memorials, news arrived from the Sifang Pavilion.
King Ming of Dali suddenly went mad and mutilated himself, causing him to bleed from all seven orifices and fall into a coma. At the same time, Cang Yan, who was known as a miracle doctor, also fell asleep with bleeding from all seven orifices.
It was hard for Jiang Wan not to believe that this was the backlash of the Three Lives Gu. He had gotten involved with Gu Xiaoxiao to cure his illness, so now he had to accept his fate.
Especially after more than half a month, Li Chengxiu received a letter via carrier pigeon saying that the commander of Linyue, the current Prince Feng Mu Jingzhou, suddenly bled from all seven orifices and fell into a coma on the battlefield.
Jiang Wan immediately guessed that the Linyue invasion was likely related to Gu Xiaoxiao. So, he quickly passed the news to Li Chengxiu, explaining the general situation in a cryptic manner.
Li Chengxiu, upon receiving the news from his wife, had no doubts. How could his wife, such a smart and intelligent person, be wrong?
Since the commander of Lin Yue is about to die, we must take advantage of his illness to kill him!
"Come here, tell the brothers to get ready and fight with me all the way to Linyue's hometown!"
Roe Deer was extremely excited, but was then forced down by his military advisor, who had a limp on one leg.
Xu Hui, an imperial envoy who had been domineering in Dongling Prefecture for a long time, was accidentally caught in the same pot with Li Laosi this time.
"emperor…"
"Military Advisor, how many times have I told you? Call me Marshal outside!"
It doesn't matter whether he becomes the emperor or not. What matters is the position of the Grand Marshal of the Army. Li Laosi is prepared to die in this position.
"…marshal!"
The military advisor readily changed his words.
"Brothers, you've just arrived at Dongling Prefecture and have fought several battles in succession. You're exhausted. I suggest you rest for a few days so you can attack Huanglong in one go!"
He turned his head and looked at the tall woman next to him with a stern expression. He raised his eyelashes slightly and asked in an ambiguous tone.
"What do you think, General Qiao? I mean, while we're resting, you could go to the clinic and visit your brother, right?"
Qiao Yuchu looked at the weak pretty boy whom he rescued from the battlefield. He had lent a helping hand to him because he was the Queen's cousin. But why did he feel that there was something wrong with the way this pretty boy looked at him now?
She took a step back alertly, then clasped her hands together and gave the king some advice.
"Your Majesty, I agree with what Lord Xu said."
"cough!"
Li Laosi looked at his cousin who was used to being taciturn, and then looked at his cousin who was a good-looking but evil-hearted man from his wife's family.
He swore with his 250-pound love-brain that he definitely saw something fishy going on between these two! Hehehehehehe…
Li Chengxiu, who never forgot to join in the fun even during the battle, rubbed his paws excitedly.
"I just told you to call me Marshal!
Cousin, if you can't remember it, I won't call you General Qiao anymore.
Your title of general was earned by my wife after she fought three times in the court and argued for you. Don't you want it anymore?"
"Marshal, I agree with what the military advisor said!"
The position of general is Qiao Yuchu's Achilles' heel, and he can hit it with every move.
She was the last child of the eldest wife of the Qiao family. She was forced to take over the throne after all her brothers died in battle along with their elders.
Although she has a female body, she has the strength of a man. As the eldest daughter of the Qiao family, she finally inherited the glorious inheritance from her father.
So I can lose my life, but I cannot lose my position as a general!
"Hey, that's right."
Li Chengxiu nodded his head in satisfaction.
"Since both of you are so persuasive, then fine. We have already secured Dongling Prefecture, so you should all have your brothers and sisters make good preparations. In a couple of days, follow me out to do something big!"
When he said the last sentence, a bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes.
The Grand Tutor once taught me a saying: If someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend them. But this Marshal also has a saying: If someone offends me, I will destroy his family!
"Yes, I will obey your orders!"
Qiao Yuchu walked out of the Marshal's Mansion and prepared to go to the clinic to see his cousin who was lucky enough to survive.
"General Qiao, please stay!"
Someone hurriedly limped out from behind. Xu Hui saw that the man had indeed stopped and waited for him. His eyes, which were full of various conspiracies and tricks, revealed a pure joy.
"Master Xu, why did you summon me?"
Turning around to face the man, Qiao and Chu were not very friendly at first.
Oh, maybe she is just not a person who likes to laugh. After all, she is a military general, so it is understandable.
Xu Hui is very good at comforting himself.
"That's what happened. I should ask Doctor Zhou and the others to change the medicine. I also want to visit Brother Yu Wu again. So I have a humble request. Could you please, General Qiao, take Xu with you?"
As if he was afraid that the other party would directly refuse, he added a few more words actively.
"All the horses in my house have been used as war horses, and all the servants in my house have also joined the army to fight.
Only my elderly mother is left at home, and I can't let her worry and worry about treating my wounds, right?
I hope General Qiao will be flexible."
Well, it was a very logical and reasonable story. Whether from a public or private perspective, Qiao Yuchu couldn't refuse directly for the Empress's sake.
So she nodded.
"Do you need me to carry you onto the horse?"
"...Thank you for your help, General."
"It's okay, it's just a small favor."
The tall general brought the horse over, and with a little force in his hands, he lifted the horse up, and the frail military advisor sat on the horse's back.
Then the general stepped on the stirrup and climbed up gracefully, clamped his legs lightly on the horse's belly, and rode away.
Two heads popped out stealthily from behind the gate of the Marshal's Mansion.
"That's amazing! My cousin is really amazing! Brother-in-law, I have decided to admire him from now on.
No wonder my sister told us since we were young that my cousin was the one who was truly smart and intelligent.
As expected, my sister never made a mistake. My cousin is the real master!"
Jiang Yao watched his cousin's live performance, calling him a master. Then, his brother-in-law, who always liked to compare himself with others, slapped him on the head.
"What will happen?
If your sister were here, she would have carried me there immediately. As for your cousin, he looks like he's not very good at handling things. He's a complete idiot!
I'm telling you, don't go nagging in front of your sister when you get home, or I'll give your wife a feather duster, and you can enjoy the rest of your life!"
"Brother-in-law, why don't you have martial ethics?"
Jiang Laosan covered his head and kept muttering, then was glared at by his brother-in-law, who became more and more angry the more he thought about it.
"If I really didn't have martial ethics, I would have kicked you back to the capital long ago!"
