Tired after a whole day, Lu Zhi hugged Liu Ji tightly at night.

However, the bastard asked, "Tell me, why did you want to marry here?"

"Because I like you." Lu Zhi said from the bottom of her heart.

Liu Ji snorted, "Stop pretending and tell me the truth."

This bastard, he still didn't believe the truth, so Lu Zhi could only change her excuse, "After you attended the banquet that day, Xiao Juncheng resigned and ran away with you... The people who wanted to persecute my family saw it and were so scared that they just rolled back."

"That's about right." Liu Ji nodded.

Lu Zhi was so angry that her teeth itched and she pinched him hard.

The man then said, "Do you know why I like Fan Fan?"

"Why?" Lu Zhi tried her best to cooperate with his performance. Fan Fan was so cute...even Lu Zhi liked her, who wouldn't like her?

"Because...she is older and you are younger..."

Lu Zhi was so angry that she wanted to die.

But that's not enough, the bastard continued, "By the way, Xiao Hongzhuang is also quite pretty... and you have to give her a betrothal gift, this woman will be back in a few days."

Lu Zhi was completely stunned.

Xiao Hongzhuang... that's the county chancellor, she's even richer than the Lu family...

Now she wants to give a betrothal gift to the county magistrate and ask her to be Liu Ji's concubine?

Might as well... kill her.

"Did you hear that?"

"heard it."

"You are so good, uncle will reward you now."

Volume 088: Sima

autumn.

The clouds are high and floating slowly.

The cold wind turns into gentle hands, refreshing the spleen and lungs.

It all looks so beautiful.

In a cave at the foot of the mountain, there was a tattered plate with a few beans on it, slowly roasting over a low fire.

Lu Chan quickly picked up a few half-cooked beans, held them in her hand, moved them back and forth, and blew on them desperately.

"King Wei, these are ripe...Try them first."

Zhen Xiaoman collapsed on the ground, her face pale. She was injured...but had nowhere to go so she could only hide in this cave.

After her husband died, Xiao Man spent all her family wealth and became a general in Zhuo County. She originally thought that if she had grown up peacefully, she would have been able to rise to prominence sooner or later.

But...she heard the news about Liu Ji and was frightened and decided to go for it.

Gamblers are always the worst.

Especially the gamblers who lost...

Xiao Man now has nothing, not even a place to live. She doesn't even dare to return to the station in Zhuo County, and can only find a cave in the countryside to hide.

She is now... so gloomy, she has never been so miserable even in her previous life.

She looked up at Lu Chan and said with a forced smile, "Wen Hou, I'm afraid my body is not going to work. But Wen Hou still has strength to spare, why don't you abandon me and find a new backer?"

A dying man often speaks good words. Lu Chan risked his life to bring her out of the encirclement of the army. Now she was seriously injured and could not get up, so she advised Lu Chan to leave.

Lu Chan smiled and said, "King Wei, please don't mention this again. Although I was a great hero in my previous life, I was an erratic villain. After living for a lifetime, we will eventually return to the dust. I just want to live my life with a clear conscience. Since God has given me another chance... This time, I want to be a good person! In this life, I will serve King Wei until my death!"

Zhen Xiaoman forced a smile and ate a few half-cooked beans with the help of Lu Chan.

She pondered for a moment and said, "It's not a good idea for the two of us to be stuck here. We need to find a rich family to have a meal."

"Does the King of Wei have any solution?"

Xiao Man thought for a moment and said, "The foreign emperor just died, and they have occupied Xihe County. It must be extremely chaotic. Why not find an ambitious person and persuade him to occupy some land in Xihe County."

"The King of Wei wants to establish himself as king again?" Lu Chan thought that this little guy was up to his old tricks of taking other people's soldiers and running away.

Xiao Man shook his head. "It's more than enough for the foreign tribe to attack a county with the whole country's army. What's more, their emperor has died. Now they are like a group of hornets whose nest has been poked. Whoever goes up will die. We can persuade others to go, but we must not go ourselves, otherwise we will die."

Lu Chan thought for a moment and said, "King Wei, this is a good idea. Does King Wei have any candidates?"

Xiao Man didn't say anything either, but just wrote two words on the ground - Sima.

The next day, Zhen Xiaoman, despite his injured body, followed Lu Chan to Sima's house.

As soon as the Sima family's men saw this, they immediately reported it to the county governor. Xiao Man did not dodge and let the servants come to arrest him. He said, "I know you Sima family are ambitious, but you are trapped in this small Zhuo County and cannot achieve your goals. Now I am here to give you a good opportunity... Is this how you treat me?"

The patriarch of the Sima family was an old man who walked with a staggering gait. After hearing what Zhen Xiaoman said...he was a little unsure.

Shouted, "Call Ying'er in."

After a while, a bright girl walked in.

It was only then that the old tribe leader said, "You said there is a good opportunity? Then tell me about it."

Zhen Xiaoman shook off the servant who was holding her and said coldly, "Do you know why I betrayed the county governor?"

Several people from the Sima family looked at it...and were a little confused.

They really couldn't understand why Xiao Man, a good general, did such a thing.

Xiao Man said with disdain, "Xihe County is currently fighting a life-and-death battle with the foreign tribes. This is the opportunity I have been waiting for... If I don't take it now, when should I wait? Unfortunately, I only have a few thousand soldiers. If I had more, I would be able to take a piece of Xihe County."

The Sima family was in a buzz, with everyone talking at once.

Everyone knows that they want to rebel...even the county magistrate knows it clearly, but the problem is...they have the strength but no opportunity.

At this time, Xiao Man gave an opportunity...they were naturally excited.

"I wonder how many troops should be sent?" someone asked.

"Ten thousand is enough."

"How could the foreigners attack Xihe County without careful defense? Where should they get through?"

Xiao Man took out a map, pointed and said, "The river here flows slowly... The foreigners don't know the terrain, so we can catch them by surprise by passing through here. Even if we can't take over the entire Xihe County, we can definitely occupy a piece of land."

"How dare you bring my Sima clan's troops?" another clan member shouted.

"Why not? As long as you give me soldiers and food, I will seize one or two pieces of land." Xiao Man looked righteous.

The Sima family's people looked excited.

Everyone looked at the old patriarch... Of course they couldn't give Xiao Man any soldiers, they would escort Xiao Man along.

The clan leader blinked, somewhat undecided. He looked in the direction of the girl and said, "What did Ying'er say?"

When the other tribesmen heard this, they immediately said, "Why is the old tribe leader asking a little girl? Aren't we human beings?"

The old man glared at her and said, "Don't I know what a bunch of good-for-nothings you are? All of you together are no better than Ying'er. This matter must be told by Ying'er."

The girl named Ying'er was not yet an adult. She had just reached the age of 15 or 16. She was pretty but not tall. When she sat on the chair... her feet couldn't even touch the ground.

Sima Ying asked, "General Zhen, why didn't you look for someone else for this good opportunity, but came to my Sima family instead? There has never been any friendship between our families."

Zhen Xiaoman's eyes widened. "Before the uprising, what kind of friendship did the king have with his ministers?"

These words made the entire Sima family feel humbled.

But Sima Ying snorted coldly, "Patriarch, this girl is here to harm our Sima family. She wants us to die."

hum...

Exploded instantly.

"Why? I think this is a good opportunity." Not to mention others, even the old patriarch looked confused.

"How can it be that the foreign race cannot conquer a small Xihe County with the strength of the entire country? Zhen Xiaoman only talked about the benefits, but not the friendship. It is obvious that he has something to hide. How can such a good thing be passed down to the Sima family?"

The other tribesmen wanted to seize this opportunity and immediately retorted. The old tribe leader snorted, "Shut up and listen to Ying'er. Catch these two bastards!"

Lu Chan drew his knife and angrily said, "Who dares!"

Sima Ying smiled and said, "That's not necessary. I think Zhen Xiaoman is sharp-tongued, so why not let him go and tell other families? If some idiot believes him... that's our Sima family's chance. As for this Lu Chan, he is a hero and very brave, so he can stay and be a general."

The old patriarch asked, "Are you willing? As long as you stay, the Sima family will treat you as a distinguished guest."

"Someone, I don't want to!"

Volume 089: Doctor

"I didn't expect that the Sima family actually has such a talent!"

Zhen Xiaoman sighed.

Sima did not do anything to the two men. Not only did he send them out, he also gave them some silver. This is a typical case of diverting trouble away.

Lu Chan comforted him, "King Wei, don't be discouraged. I think if it weren't for that little girl named Sima Ying, the Sima family would have been persuaded by the prime minister. At worst, we can just change families."

But...Xiao Man couldn't hold on any longer, and while walking, she fell off the horse.

Lu Chan quickly helped her up. Xiao Man looked pale and was sweating profusely.

"King Wei...Where is he injured? Where is he injured?"

Xiao Man held back her words. Lu Chan checked her legs up and down and found blood flowing out of the base of her legs. She didn't care about anything else and just tore them open to see...

I saw the flesh and blood inside churning, and it was even a little rotten.

It is impossible to avoid encountering this when riding a horse, but Xiao Man managed to make it to Sima's house.

"Why? Why is this happening... King Wei, why do you have to do this?" Lu Chan's eyes turned red.

Xiao Man said weakly, "Marquis Wen regards me as a king, so I must treat him like a prince. If I can find a way out for him, I don't mind giving up this life."
