Chapter 466: Harvest the battlefield! New forces are ready to take action
When Cong Tong saw that it was Marquis An, he became even more restless and angry. He said, "The general was kind enough to rescue me. What can I, an actor, do by his side? I can only be used as a joke and a toy for the masters to enjoy. It would be better for me to die and ask for a favor."
An Hou heard this and said, "I said you had intentions, but you really don't. I said you don't have intentions, but today you have so many intentions. Why bother? I saved you because you are chaste and strong-willed, a good man. I want you to go back and make a career. Who looks down on your status as an actor? There were so many heroes in the play, and you were asked to play them, but you didn't know the meaning. It was a waste. If you want to die, I won't stop you. If you want to be a real man, come back to Beijing with me tomorrow and pursue your career. It's up to you to make your own choice." An Hou spoke in a tense manner. Seeing that Cong Tong's hand was cracked, he became angry again. He tore off a piece of cloth from his body, went over, wrapped it around his hand, and turned away without even looking at him.
Cong Tong was left alone under the cold wind and dark moon. He looked at the white cloth in his hand and watched An Hou's shadow blend into the darkness. His heart was in turmoil and he did not sleep all night.
The next day, as soon as it was light, An Hou got up and packed up to report to the capital. When he came out of the tent, he saw Cong Tong kneeling in front of the door. Looking at her red eyes, he knew that she had not slept all night. Before she could say anything, Cong Tong spoke up: "General, you are right. A good man can become a good man no matter what. I have lived in vain for so many years. After thinking about it all night, I decided to follow the general to Beijing to start a career."
After listening to him, the general did not make any move, but waved his sleeves, turned around and left. Cong Tong was left with the general's tall back and the slightly upturned corners of his mouth behind his back.
Then, General Cong Tong followed him on the road to Beijing, with a mighty army of tens of thousands following behind.
After entering the city gate, the people began to set off firecrackers. The sound of firecrackers continued all the way until they entered the palace, when the city finally quieted down. An Wuhou, a Jihe man, led the generals of various armies to meet the emperor, accept the emperor's grace, and greet the grand ceremony. After the ceremony, it was already the second watch. After leaving the emperor, they all rushed home, and the generals from other places also went to their respective places of settlement. When An Hou met with the emperor, he ordered people to send Cong Tong back home for settlement.
After everything went smoothly, An Hou rode his horse back home. When he arrived at the door of his house, the lights were bright. The women and men in the house were waiting outside. When they saw An Hou riding his horse, they set off firecrackers. The whole family stood up to greet him. An Hou was surrounded by a group of people and entered the house. The maids in the family were busy taking off his armor, bathing and burning incense. After completing the process, he returned to the hall and greeted his mother, brother, and his brother's family.
After chatting, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and everyone went back to rest, and he also returned to his room. Suddenly he thought of something, where was Cong Tong, so he sent someone to call Liu Fengquan, asked him about Cong Tong's whereabouts, and brought Cong Tong to his room.
"Congtong, you stay here for now, we'll discuss it later." After hearing this, Congtong returned to the guest house with doubts in his heart. Seeing the cracks on his hands gradually getting smaller and no longer itchy, he lay on the bed and slept until noon the next day after being tired for several months.
The sky was still overcast. It snowed last night, a thick layer of snow fell. The charcoal fire in the house was unconsciously added a little more. Cong Tong got up quickly, washed up, and changed into the robe that An Hou had sent last night. She looked like a human being, not to mention that her beauty was back. As soon as she went out, she saw a slim woman coming over. She looked at Cong Tong with her eyes wide open and her breathing became rapid. She couldn't help but fall into the bottomless memories. After staring for a long time, Cong Tong left. She was still there.
Marquis An and his old friends from Beijing and former brothers in the army went to the famous Zuihua Tower at the end of the street, saying that they wanted to welcome Marquis An. However, so many young men were drunk in that Zuihua Tower that everyone knew the reason without them saying it.
They came to the entrance of the building. A group of girls, with big breasts and hips, and charming figures, kept stroking the faces of the gentlemen with silk scarves in their hands. All the officials were smiling and very satisfied. An Hou looked at these people with disgust on his face, but he had no choice but to follow his friends into the building.
There were erotic dances and sweet talk in the building. The group went to the compartment in the northeast corner of the second floor. An Hou took the seat, and the others lined up in order. An old friend stood up, picked up the wine glass, and said to An Hou: "Thanks to An Hou's protection of the country, we have such a peaceful scene today. Let us raise our glasses and toast An Hou on behalf of the people of the world." After that, everyone stood up and toasted An Hou with their glasses. An Hou stood up and drank the cup with everyone, saying: "The soldiers are outside. If there is no support from you, even if our sons are good at fighting, I am afraid they will not be allowed. So, I toast you on behalf of the sons in the army." After that, he picked up the wine glass and drank it, and everyone hurriedly followed. After three rounds, the old friend who had just toasted gave a look to the old procuress, who understood and went out to call the girl in.
The girls were quite capable, and no wonder, as this was their job. They were very familiar with serving the gentlemen comfortably. But Marquis An was just drinking. No matter how the girls next to him flirted with him, he did not move. The girls were anxious and scared and started crying. The mother came in and said, "What's the matter?" The old friend got up quickly and said, "My young master has seen the world. He will not be interested in this vulgar woman you are holding. Hurry up and ask the embroiderer to come. This young man can only be found here." Later, the old friend whispered a few words in the old mother's ear, which scared the old mother so much that her face turned pale and she hurried out.
After a while, the old lady knocked on the door and came in, saying to the Marquis: "Sir, I am an old servant who doesn't know people well. Please don't blame me. This is the embroiderer, the best girl in our building." After that, she waved her hand and walked in. She saw a woman coming in, with a high bun, a rosy face, phoenix eyes, and peach blossom makeup. She was wearing a blue gauze with a royal blue nude jacket, red embroidered shoes, and a green peony handkerchief in her hand. She was charming and moved, and walked in with lotus steps. She looked up at the person at the table, with a slight curl of her mouth, a hint of ridicule. But when she looked at An Hou, An Hou was also looking at her. When their eyes met, the peach blossom makeup on the embroiderer's face became more charming and rosy. The mother looked at her changes, closed the door lightly, and retreated.
The old friend looked at the scene and coughed a few times. Everyone understood what he meant and left the room with excuses. An Hou and the embroiderer were left alone, staring at each other in silence.
