On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 529 Overnight in Qingshui

There are always things that a wise man would not do and things that seem stupid.

But he just did it for the sake of morality in his heart, and he did it without hesitation, which is the most convincing thing.

Just like Tao Qian faced the attack of Cao Cao's army and asked for help everywhere, but the heroes turned a deaf ear and did not want to offend Cao Cao.

Only Liu Bei, who was living in Qingzhou at that time, risked his life to rescue him and was determined to live and die with Xuzhou. Only before Tao Qian died, he abandoned his son and entrusted Xuzhou to Liu Bei.

If Cui Che stays in Guanzhong, he will definitely be able to capture Daxing.

At that time, all Guanzhong was captured, the army was assembled, and the troops were sent out of Longshan. Tuyuhun was afraid and would definitely flee back to the country with the captured people and animals.

Although the captive people and livestock of Longyou cannot be recovered, they can capture Guanlong without risk and unify the north.

As for the people, they are all forgetful, and time can heal the scars.

As long as you show a little kindness, they will forget their past grudges and worship you.

But Cui Che, who has always been shrewd, insisted on doing this stupid thing.

He ignored the battle situation in Guanzhong and personally commanded a partial army to rescue Longyou.

Everyone understands that once this partial division suffers a setback in Longyou, it will inevitably affect the overall situation in Guanzhong.

And if Cui Che leaves Guanzhong, if something unexpected happens, he will regret it even more.

But Cui Che is still loyal to his inner morality after all.

Not only Li Xiaogong, Zhang Lun and others were impressed by him, but even Li Shimin, who was only ten years old, admired his brother-in-law.

At the beginning, Cui Che taught his followers that water can carry and capsize a boat, so that they should pay attention to the suffering of the people.

Now that he is risking his life to rescue the people of Longyou, he is living up to his words and taking the people of the world as his own responsibility.

Qingshui County is only more than 120 miles away from Tianshui City. It can be reached in half a day with a cavalry attack.

However, the soldiers under his command were already exhausted from the long-distance attack. On the Longguan Ancient Road, Cui Che did not even know how many corpses of soldiers and horses were left behind.

Considering that since Tianshui County had been holding on for so long, it was not too late to come here this night, Cui Che ordered the entire army to rest and regroup in Qingshui County.

Wait until you have enough energy tomorrow morning before setting off.

When the soldiers heard the military order, they all cheered.

Even Li Xiuning couldn't help but wave his little fist in celebration.

Although she has good riding skills, she is only a fourteen-year-old girl after all. Her petite and fragile body is not fully developed, so how can she compare with those soldiers.

The hardship of the long-distance march is self-evident, but she has been gritting her teeth and persisting, not wanting to slow down Cui Che's marching speed because of her own reasons.

The girl never cried out in pain, and Cui Che was also careless. All he could think about was how to punch Tuyuhun hard, so how could he care about Li Xiuning.

At the temporary residence in Qingshui County, in the night, Li Xiuning had changed into women's clothes and served her husband.

The dark wing room had only the faint light of the moon shining through the window paper.

Cui Che said doubtfully:

"Why don't you light the lights tonight?"

Li Xiuning made an excuse:

"A Taoist priest once said: 'A lifelong taboo is to have sex without burning a candle in the evening, and to always protect your energy at night.'

"I also want to take good care of my body with my husband for a long time."

When Cui Che heard this, he frowned. Where did this charlatan come from? If you don't light candles during sex, you are cultivating your moral character! Isn't this deception!

He said dismissively:

"Don't listen to the nonsense of those charlatans."

Li Xiuning nodded and said:

"But the Taoist priest's name is Sun Simiao, and he is very famous in Guanzhong."

Cui Che was silent for a moment and said:

"In fact, it doesn't matter if I don't light the lamp. The people are in poverty, so how can I content myself with enjoying it? Although candles are cheap, they add up to a small amount, so it can be regarded as a strict practice of economy."

When Li Xiuning heard this, she couldn't help laughing.

Just as Cui Che was groping in the dark, he touched the inner side of Li Xiuning's thigh. She was in agony and couldn't hold it back, so she groaned.

This immediately aroused Cui Che's alarm. He had been married to Li Xiuning for a while, and he knew that his beloved concubine was not so sensitive. She would moan just by touching the inner thigh.

Thinking that Li Xiuning insisted on not lighting candles tonight, Cui Che made some guesses.

He immediately stood up and lit a candle amidst Li Xiuning's surprise.

Under the candlelight, Cui Che clearly saw that the inner thighs of Li Xiuning had been worn out and were full of scratches.

Li Xiuning panicked and quickly covered her legs.

Cui Che sat back on the couch, caressed her cheek, and asked with loving eyes:

"Does it hurt?"

Li Xiuning nodded first and then shook his head.

Cui Che knew that she nodded to prevent him from worrying and shook her head because she did not want to deceive him.

"Have you applied any medicine?"

Li Xiuning replied:

"I've taken the medicine, but haven't had time to apply it yet."

Cui Che asked again:

"Where is the original medicine?"

Li Xiuning pointed to her makeup cabinet:

"Just hide it in the cupboard."

Cui Che took out the medicine and said to Li Xiuning:

"Stretch your legs out."

But this was the first time Li Xiuning disobeyed Cui Che's instructions:

"I can apply it myself. My husband can go out for a while."

Cui Che was unmoved and said:

"I know you are worried that I will see the wound and dislike the ugliness, so you want to avoid me.

"I ask you, if I were shot in the face with an arrow on the battlefield and my appearance was damaged, would you hate me for it?"

Before Cui Che finished speaking, Li Xiuning quickly reached out and blocked Cui Che's mouth:

"How can your husband say such unlucky words!"

Cui Che took Li Xiuning's hand away, held it tightly, and urged:

"You haven't answered me yet."

Li Xiuning blushed and said:

"I am already married to my husband. No matter what he looks like, he is still my husband. I will naturally serve my husband wholeheartedly."

Cui Che smiled and said:

"In that case, why are you afraid that I will dislike the bruise on your leg?

"Obey, stretch out your legs."

Li Xiuning hesitated, but still stretched her white and straight legs in front of Cui Che.

Cui Che carefully applied the medicine to her. Seeing Li Xiuning frowning in pain due to the stimulation of the medicine powder, Cui Che kissed her lips and stretched out his hand to smooth her brow.

After a long time, their lips parted, Cui Che explained:

"I don't know how to help you with pain, but I can distract you."

"My body no longer hurts."

Li Xiuning licked her swollen lips from Cui Che's kiss, feeling happy.

Since Li Xiuning's inner thighs were bruised, it was naturally impossible to have sex. Cui Che hugged Li Xiuning and slept all night until the rooster crowed at five o'clock.

The soldiers of all departments were already cooking and living, and Cui Che was also washing and changing clothes under Li Xiuning's service.

"You have a thigh injury, it's better to stay in Qingshui County."

"I have come here with my husband, and there is only half a day's journey left. My husband will never leave me behind."

Cui Che had no choice but to gently pinch the girl's cheek:

"Hurry up and put on those personal protective clothing."

No more tonight, will be updated tomorrow
