Chapter 116 Take the initiative to come to the door
When the sea calmed down, Li Xi's legs became weak and she sat softly in Gu Jingzhi's arms.
Gu Jingzhi looked at Li Xi, whose eyes were blurred with tears, in his arms, and felt his heart filled with sorrow.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Xi's mind finally regained some clarity.
She looked up and glared at him angrily for a moment, then raised his shoulders.
"Major General, that's too much!" Xi walked over and sat down opposite him.
"Looking at Gu Jingzhi's flushed eyes, his pupils seemed to be seducing, the bright and clear look of the past was no longer there, and he looked rather reckless.
The collar of his shirt was wrinkled by Li Xi when they kissed him just now, and it was loosely torn open, making him look like someone who was bullied.
"Axi." Gu Jingzhi looked at Li Xi with burning eyes.
Li Xi subconsciously avoided his captivating gaze.
"Ahem," Li Xi coughed twice, still not daring to look at him, "Just speak properly, don't be so sticky."
Gu Jingzhi looked at Li Xi's red face, chuckled, and looked at Qu Xi lovingly, "Okay."
Li Xi heard the smile in Gu Jingzhi's words, frowned, and looked at Gu Jingzhi angrily, "Don't laugh!"
"Okay! Don't laugh!" Gu Jingzhi responded quickly. He had already discovered that she looked fierce but was actually weak.
Li Xi looked at his serious expression and became even angrier. She stood up and pulled him, "What are you still doing here? Get out of here. I'm annoyed just by seeing you!"
This was the first time that Gu Jingzhi saw her so angry and frustrated. In addition, he had already collected the interest and also had to deal with the trouble with Song Zhe, so he obediently let her push him out of the courtyard.
Gu Jingzhi stood outside the door, "Li Zhe does need to be dealt with. You don't need to ask Hu Zi to go out to buy food tonight. I'll bring it back for us to eat together."
Li Xi ignored him completely and slammed the door shut, leaving him to laugh at herself.
After slamming the door, Li Xi leaned against it, listening to Gu Jingzhi's footsteps gradually fading away. Thinking back to what had just happened, she couldn't help laughing out loud.
In fact, she was not angry just now, she was just a little annoyed and embarrassed.
Although I am a novice in love, I still find it hard to accept being controlled by an ancient person.
Of course, she wasn't very angry, because she now understood the meaning of the sentence that had been circulating on the Internet.
When looking for a partner, you should find someone who is handsome. This way, even when you are angry with him, you will feel a lot better because of his appearance.
Just like now, she had no energy left, and all that was left was the shyness she felt when she had close contact with Gu Jingzhi just now.
Li Xi touched her lips lightly, feeling a little painful and swollen. Her face felt a little hot. She put down her hands a little uncomfortably, walked to the side and sat down, fanning herself with her hands.
Before, when I kissed him, he was like a fool. His progress was too fast and now I can hardly handle it.
Zhenbei General Mansion.
Gu Jingzhi's study.
The wind outside the window blew into the room through the window lattice, blowing the "Strategies of the Warring States" on the table, and the flying pages rolled up, revealing a colorful book hidden underneath. Soon the wind stopped, the flying pages closed, and everything returned to normal.
Gu Jingzhi, who had already ridden away, suddenly sneezed. Zhang Hao behind him asked with concern, "Major General?"
"Nothing." Gu Jingzhi said.
"Major General, Song Zhe and his group have already checked into the inn, and they don't seem to be unusual."
"Their purpose of coming here at this time cannot be as simple as he said." Gu Jingzhi looked at the cement city wall that had been repaired.
The original yellow and mottled city wall has now been completely transformed, replaced by a high gray wall. Just standing there, one can feel its hardness and heaviness.
Noticing his look, Zhang Hao asked, "Major General, do you suspect that Song Zhe and his men came here for cement?"
Zhang Hao frowned slightly. Cement had just been on the market for a short time but people came to him one after another for it. It showed that it was indeed valuable. However, Zhang Hao had many questions about it.
Cement is really good. After it dries, it is extremely strong, comparable to stone. But apart from being used to paste walls and pave roads, it doesn't seem to have any other uses.
This thing has a very powerful effect in defense, and the general cannot fail to report it. After reporting it, just because it can make the city walls stronger, His Majesty will definitely not put it aside. He will definitely popularize cement, at least in various towns. By then, the secret of cement will no longer be a secret, and they really don't need to be so anxious.
Gu Jingzhi's eyes deepened slightly. The emergence of an unknown thing would naturally attract the attention of many forces. Even if they were not there to gain it, they wanted to get the first-hand information.
Whether it is the third prince or Song Zhe, what they care about is not the cement itself, but the things and people behind the cement.
In recent times, what the Zhenbei Army has done has indeed been conspicuous. Whether it is hemostatic drugs, anti-inflammatory drugs, or the appearance of cement, everyone's attention has been firmly attracted to the Zhenbei Army.
What they were exploring were not these newly emerged things themselves, but the people who brought these new things to the Zhenbei Army.
Shi Hanshuo has been leading people to secretly protect Doctor Wu. Recently, he has arrested no less than five or six groups of people, which shows how many people want to find out the reasons for the changes in the Zhenbei Army.
"Send someone to keep a close eye on Song Zhe and his group, and report any unusual movements immediately." Gu Jingzhi said with a cold face.
"Yes."
Before Zhang Hao could discover anything, Song Zhe took the initiative to take people to the Zhenbei Army camp the next day.
The military camp is an important area, so naturally not everyone can enter. Not surprisingly, Song Zhe and his group were stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate.
"Stop! Who are you?"
"Don't you know this is a military stronghold? No entry for outsiders!"
"Go, go quickly! Be careful, my knife has no eyes!"
The soldiers guarding the gate confronted them with knives. Although Song Zhe brought only five people with him, these five people did not look like people to be trifled with. It was no wonder that the soldiers guarding the gate looked as if they were facing a great enemy.
"How dare you!" A man stood up behind Song Zhe. He was tall and strong, with a sturdy build, sharp eyes and a fierce look. "You are blind. This man is the Major General of the Southwest Army. Why don't you let him go!"
"Wang Ren."
After Wang Ren finished speaking, Song Zhe stepped forward with a faint smile and said gently, "They are also doing their job, why bother them."
"Yes." Wang Ren, who had a fierce look on his face just now, put away the fierceness on his face after Song Zhe spoke, took a step back and stood behind Song Zhe.
The soldiers, who had been holding their breath since just now, breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously developed a certain liking for the gentle man in front of them.
The leading team leader already knew the identity of the man in front of him from Wang Ren's mouth just now. He was not like the other soldiers who had any good impression of him just because of Song Zhe's words.
On the contrary, he did not like the Southwestern Major General in front of him.
