Chapter 091 Plump and Skinny
Liu Xiu and others stayed in Ningcheng for two days, but he was not idle these two days. Under the leadership of Wang Chan, he followed Lu Min and experienced the hardships of the border city. Although Ningcheng is located within the Great Wall and there are more and more difficult obstacles outside the Great Wall, the conditions of Ningcheng are already one heaven and one earth compared to Juyang. There are almost no people here. Apart from some officials in Ningcheng County Temple, there are only two thousand garrison soldiers in the large Ningcheng City guarding the Wuhuan School Guardian. In most cases, the tasks of Ningcheng County Magistrate is to carry weapons as a guide when the Wuhuan School Guardian is on patrol, just to enhance his voice.
Liu Xiu felt a little hard, and Lu Min was even more miserable. Every day when he returned to his residence, his legs seemed to be filled with lead. His originally white face was much darker by the wind on the edge, and his cheeks were much thinner. He looked like a scholar at first glance, but like an officer who had been polished in the military camp for many years. His elegant temperament added a bit of coldness and strength, which made him more attractive.
This can be clearly seen from Mao Qian's eyes.
Just after dinner that day, Lu Min beat her legs while looking through the records compiled by Liu Xiu. Liu Bei walked in from outside with a slight footsteps. Seeing Lu Min there, he secretly looked at Liu Xiu, standing beside him without saying a word.
Lu Min turned a page of paper, raised her head and glanced at Liu Bei, and smiled: "Xuande, what's the matter inconvenient to say in front of me?"
Liu Bei smiled embarrassedly: "It's nothing. Lord Wang said there was a party in the camp today, with singing and dancing performances. Yide heard that there was a Hu girl among them, so he wanted to follow Deran to observe and improve his painting skills."
Lu Min smiled silently without saying a word. After a while, she waved to Liu Xiu and said, "Don't accompany me, go and relax. I'm a little tired, so I'll take a break after reading these."
Liu Xiu quickly agreed, got up and followed Liu Bei out of the door. Zhang Fei was waiting outside the door. When he saw Liu Xiu coming out, he quickly greeted him and said, "Sir, you can look at Hu Nv today."
"What are your bad thoughts?" Liu Xiu glanced at him and said directly.
Zhang Fei rubbed his hands and squeezed his eyes: "Sir, you understand."
"I understand you." Liu Xiu raised his hand and gave it to him, then glared at Liu Bei: "Young man is so arrogant, please pay attention."
Liu Bei held back his laughter, turned his head over, and made a gesture to Li Cheng and others who were waiting at the door. When Li Cheng and others who had been watching were watching, they immediately laughed out loud.
Liu Xiu knew without guessing that today's party was definitely not as simple as singing and dancing. People are now mature early, and there are many people who get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen. Even if they haven't gotten married, most of them have been affected by women. Liu Bei didn't have any chance to have meat when he was at home. After arriving at Zhang's house in Zhuo County, he was like a greedy cat placed by the fish pond, eating the marrow and knowing the taste. When he saw a beautiful woman, his bones were a little light. But it was not just him. Most of those kids were like this, but they had many opportunities, not as anxious as Liu Bei.
They have been rushing all these days, except for the night they stayed in Juyang, they had no chance to be slutty. After all, there are limited people who travel with their maids, and this kind of thing is not convenient to share. Today, it is rare to have a chance to indulge in a little bit, and of course no one is willing to let it go. Wang Chan's hand in the wind, and they were concerned.
Kabuki in the military camp has never been just singing and dancing as simple as dancing. They also assume the function of a camp prostitute and are responsible for solving the physiological problems of single garrison soldiers. Many of these camp prostitutes are from noble families, but because their families violated the law and were then distributed to the frontier as official slaves. For ordinary garrison soldiers who usually don’t dare to speak loudly in front of nobles, being able to sleep with a woman who was once a noble lady—even if she looks very average—is a capital that can be enough to boast about others.
In Ningcheng these days, Liu Xiu and the others learned a lot of things that are difficult to know in normal times, and this is one of them. The reason why Lu Min did not participate was because he was not used to such occasions. In Liu Xiu's words, Lu Min's world is a full ideal, and what they see now is more of a skinny reality. The gap between the two is too big, just as far away as the dark politics of reality is the same as the world of saints.
"Sir, you're a little vulgar." Zhang Fei said seriously: "I really follow your teachings to study the body. I'm not venting my desires like they do. I'm a gentleman."
"Are you gentle?" Li Cheng couldn't help laughing when he heard Zhang Fei's defense and pointed at Zhang Fei's nose and said, "If you were a gentleman, I would be a PhD of the Five Classics in the Imperial Academy. Why are your eyes so big? Isn't it because when you see a woman, you always stare like a cow's egg, and now it's even more excessive. Not only do you look with your eyes, but you also touch it. I heard that when you are at home, you often take off your maid in broad daylight and look at it for a long time. Is this true?"
"You know what a fool!" Zhang Fei looked at Li Cheng with disdain: "This is called sketching, not something you guys with low interest can understand. Women are for appreciation. Do you think they are just for doing things? Then you might as well buy a sow and go back. When the light blows, it's the same anyway." He glanced at Li Cheng and suddenly smiled strangely: "By the way, you are really like this. You will know when you look at your two maids. I don't understand. Why are you a son of a famous scholar? Ling Zun has such good eyesight, why don't you have any at all when you get to you?"
"And! You are becoming more and more disgusting now." Li Cheng was hit by him, and his face turned red, and he dared not argue anymore. As Zhang Fei said, he did not have any inheritance from his father Li Ding, and his preference for women was very different. His father liked to be slender and slim, and his literary and quiet, but he liked to be fat and plump and have a rough personality. For this matter, he didn't know how many times he had been scolded by Li Ding.
Li Cheng walked and said angrily: "Deran, it's not that I told you, your gentleman is not doing well. It depends on what Yidejiao has done."
Liu Xiu rolled his eyes and was too lazy to pay attention to him. To be honest, Li Cheng's taste is indeed a bit serious. Not only Zhang Fei can't accept it, but he can't accept it either.
While talking and laughing, a group of people went out and headed straight to Hu City located in the east gate. Hu City was originally in Ning City. In recent years, Hu City has become larger and larger, and the original market in the city could not be put down, so they moved outside the city. The land in the city was convenient to be idle and was used for other purposes, becoming a place for military soldiers to have fun, drinking, gambling, and playing with women, all in this yard.
When Liu Xiu and the others arrived, there were already many people gathering in the yard, shouting loudly. They gathered in groups of three or five, unscrupulously and molesting a few poor kabukis. The rough laughter could almost overturn the roof. Seeing Liu Xiu and others coming in, everyone they knew greeted him loudly. A military marquis with a beard came over and hooked Liu Xiu's shoulders, and said with a wink, "Mr. Lu didn't come? Or was there a beautiful woman already with him?"
Liu Xiu was speechless. Mao Qian has been with Lu Min these days, and everyone can see her feelings. They have all come out to play, and Lu Min probably won’t be lonely. Of course, it’s impossible to be as wild as this military man said. After all, Lu Min is still a scholar. He is passionate and polite. He probably won’t do anything miserable.
"Get your horse pee!" Wang Chan walked over, pushed the military marquis away, pulled Liu Xiu to the upstairs, and smiled as he walked: "Introduce you a friend."
"What friend?"
"The heroic coach of Wuhuan, Lord Wuhuan, Shanggu, said with a smile: "I know you are not your husband, and you have no prejudice against the Hu people, so I dare to introduce you to you. Nanlou is the strongest among Lord Wuhuan, with more than 9,000 subordinates and hundreds of thousands of people. Our lieutenant's mansion also wants to give him some face. This time I heard that famous scholars from Zhuo County came to the border to collect folk songs, and they asked me to invite you to meet and make friends."
