    Zhou Xiuying followed Li Xuanji through the entire worship ceremony. Although she did not believe in religion, more than 500 people in the women's camp lined up to worship devoutly. She was too embarrassed to stand aside, thinking that worshiping one more foreign Bodhisattva would mean one more  Bless you.  Strangely enough, at first she couldn't understand the hymns and songs sung by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom magistrates, but after listening to them, her heart felt peaceful. Finally, when she heard everyone shouting to kill the demons together, Zhou Xiuying's blood surged and she shouted along with them.  stand up.

    After the ceremony, the female soldiers of the female camp were brought back by their own female soldiers. Zhou Xiuying, Li Xuanji and other female soldiers and guards of the Queen of the West stayed behind. Seeing that the Queen of the West and his wife were surrounded by a group of foreign monks, Zhou Xiuying said anxiously: "Xuanji  Sister, those foreign monks won¡¯t do anything to King Xi and Queen Xi.¡±

    Li Xuanji's pretty face smiled slightly and said: "No, those missionaries are all envoys who came to negotiate peace. The male soldiers had already searched them before entering the camp. They didn't bring any weapons. Moreover, with the skills of King Xi and Queen Xi,  , they don¡¯t dare to take action.¡±

    Zhou Xiuying said "Oh" and saw King Xi and Queen Xi standing together. One was rude and the other was as beautiful as a fairy. She couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: "King Xi is so ugly and he is not worthy of such a good person like Queen Xi."  ."

    Li Xuanji heard Zhou Xiuying's muttering, turned her head and smiled brightly: "Miss Zhou, what did you say?"

    Zhou Xiuying then realized that she had made a mistake and hurriedly smiled and said: "I didn't say anything, I just said that King Xi and Queen Xi are really a match made in heaven."

    Li Xuanji covered her mouth and smiled and said: "This is the first time I have heard someone say this. When I voted for Taiping last year, when I first saw King Xi and Queen Xi, I felt that judging from their appearance, Xi Wang was  The king was so rude that he was not worthy of the Queen of the West, but after getting along with her gradually, I realized that I had been wrong."

    Zhou Xiuying originally had some grudges against Xiao Yungui for beating her with thirty army sticks.  So when she saw King Xi and Queen Xi standing together, she couldn't help but sarcastic words, not wanting to be heard by Li Xuanji. But listening to Li Xuanji's words, she seemed to think that King Xi was not worthy of a flower-like girl.  Queen Xi, later she said that she had seen it wrong, and then she asked strangely: "How come I saw it wrong?"

    Li Xuanji smiled slightly and said: "We have a total of six princes in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Except for King Nan who died early, among the other five princes, only King Xi has not taken in other princes. Not all of the other princes have.  How many, a dozen queens? Even the mighty and heroic King Yi has three queens. Only King Xi is devoted to them. Until now, he has attacked countless cities and plundered many lands, but there is only one queen beside him. "

    Zhou Xiuying made a sound and said: "Many men in our village have concubines, not to mention the corrupt officials and powerful officials in the government. The dog official of Qingpu County has five wives, and a person with such a high position as the King of Xi  .There is only one wife, Queen Xi,? It¡¯s really rare.¡±

    If Xiao Yungui hears the conversation between the two women.  I will definitely be dumbfounded. It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t want to accept the queen, it¡¯s just that the four-eyed girl is looking too closely at her.

    Li Xuanji nodded and said: "Yes, there is one good thing about the King of the West. He can share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers. We are marching and fighting now. The whole army is divided into male and female camps. Even if they are husband and wife, they are divided into male and female camps. Originally, the Kingdom of Heaven  There are rules, and the prince can live with the Queen. But the King of the West can be like everyone else, even if he does not live with the Queen of the West even in Nanjing City, the soldiers and generals in the West Palace all admire the King of the West."

    Zhou Xiuying asked curiously: "Men and women are separated into separate camps? Then how will we get married in the future?"

    Li Xuanji said with a smile: "The King of the West and the Queen of the West said that now we are still fighting. When we have a stable territory, we will live a stable life again, and then we can get married. Think about it, marching and fighting  At that time, I was still thinking about marriage, which would affect the war."

    Zhou Xiuying said oh, and Li Xuanji continued: "You may not think that King Xi looks rude, but he is well-informed, and he always leads the charge in every battle. As long as the whole army sees the banner of King Xi in front, no one will  If we will fall behind, we must all move forward bravely. It took us less than two months to travel thousands of miles from Yuezhou to Nanjing. Do you think Xi Wang is powerful? Only Xi Wang is like this  Talents are worthy of our Queen Xi Wang¡¯s beauty and talent, but looks are second best.¡±

    The two women murmured in a low voice. Xiao Yungui had already left first, igniting his troops and preparing to leave the team. Queen Xi finally calmed down the missionaries and followed them towards Li Xuanji and Zhou Xiuying.

    When Zhou Xiuying saw the King of the West beginning to order his troops, the horns of the male soldiers and horses and the flags of each army were raised one after another, Zhou Xiuying began to feel excited. When she saw the Queen of the West coming, she went up to meet her and asked, "Mother of the West, what are we doing?"  Are you also setting off from Jinxiu Camp?"

    Hong Yun'er shook her head and said: "We are not going to send out the troops like the King of the West. The Jinxiu Camp and the Qingpu New Army will stay in the main camp and wait for the military order. If the King of the West can clear the Qingyao Camp in the south of the city today, we will break up the camp and follow. Miss Zhou, Xuanji  , you arrange the sisters to wash the clothes for the brothers in the male camp, and then prepare water, if there is a war laterHurry up and ask the Qingpu Rebel Army to send people to deliver the prepared meals, prepare more wrappings and medicine for knife wounds, and be prepared to take care of the seriously injured brothers. In short, everyone guards the camp and prepares to meet the King of the West.  "

    Li Xuanji immediately accepted the order and prepared to go back to arrange the female soldiers to work. Since Hu Damei and other female soldiers died in battle, Xiao Yungui rarely arranged for female soldiers from Jinxiu Battalion to serve in combat missions. The female battalion and female soldiers served as  They were all doing errands such as preparing water, washing clothes, taking care of the wounded, and carrying food and grass in the back.  In Xiao Yungui's words, unless all the male soldiers are dead, it will be the female battalion's turn to go into battle.  When attacking Wuchang, Nanjing and other places, the female battalion kept boiling water and cooking in the rear, and brought water to the front line. The male soldiers took turns attacking the bombed city walls. Whenever the replaced male soldiers returned to  There was always hot food to eat at the starting position, and injured brothers were immediately carried away for treatment. This allowed the Taiping Army to maintain strong morale and physical strength when they attacked the city. These are all the contributions of the women's battalion and the civilian husband's battalion.

    Zhou Xiuying screamed, she was still thinking about going out to fight with this female soldier in the female camp, but she did not expect to do these things. Just when she was about to ask for a fight, Hong Yun'er suddenly called out to Li Xuanji and said: "Xuanji,  One more thing, the female guards and I are going to take the foreigners to the north gate. Could you please clean up the Xiwang tent? If you have any clothes, please help me wash them first."

    Queen Xi Wang¡¯s clothes have always been washed for him. Sometimes she would ask Li Xuanji and Yang Dongqing to help if she was too busy. Li Xuanji had done this a few times, so she immediately agreed.

    After Hong Yun'er finished her explanation, Zhou Xiuying hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mother of the West, can I follow the King of the West to go out to kill the demon?"

    Hong Yun'er smiled slightly and said: "Miss Zhou, you have only been beaten with thirty military sticks, and your injury has not healed, so you can stay with Xuanji. Later, the military code officer will also preach the military discipline of our Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to the Qingpu Rebels.  , I need your help." After saying this, Hong Yun'er pulled Zhou Xiuying's hand to encourage her, and then left with the female guards.

    Seeing Hong Yun'er leaving, Zhou Xiuying originally wanted to secretly follow Xi Wang out of the team, but she was afraid that she would be beaten with a military stick if she was discovered, so she was very depressed and followed Li Xuanji to arrange for the female camp sisters to prepare meals.

    The two women were busy for half an hour and finally made the arrangements.  Li Xuanji turned around and went to the Xiwang's tent to clean up. Zhou Xiuying was not very familiar with the other female soldiers in the female camp, so she had to follow Li Xuanji to the Xiwang's tent.

    After entering the tent, Li Xuanji tidied the bed, put away the clothes on the bed, looked back at Zhou Xiuying and said with a smile, "Miss Zhou, do you want to follow me to the river to wash clothes?"

    Zhou Xiuying nodded, followed Li Xuanji and asked: "Sister Xuanji. When do you think our female battalion can go into battle to kill the enemy?"

    Li Xuanji smiled slightly and said: "The King of the West said something. Unless all the male soldiers are dead, he will never send female soldiers into battle again."

    Zhou Xiuying lamented: "Am I going to have to do laundry and cooking after menstruation?"

    Li Xuanji comforted her as she walked: "The King of the West is doing this for our own good. If those Qing Yao, who are inferior to pigs and dogs, catch our female soldiers, they will use methods that are a hundred times more despicable and vicious than those used to deal with ordinary male soldiers. The King of the West is doing this for us."  Protect us. Besides, you do all this work so that the army can fight with peace of mind. You will feel very happy when you see those male soldiers coming back from the battle and devouring the food you cooked. And those who are injured  My brothers also need someone to take care of them, don¡¯t they? In addition to doing these things, I also help the Queen of the West issue notices to calm the people, and help brothers write family letters. You don¡¯t have to go into battle to kill the enemy to be considered brave. I think what I do is also very important.  significance."

    Looking at Li Xuanji¡¯s satisfied look, Zhou Xiuying exclaimed: ¡°Sister Xuanji, you still know the words, but I¡¯m stupid, I only know my own name.¡±

    Li Xuanji smiled slightly and said: "Why don't I teach you writing in your spare time? I heard that you are very good at martial arts. Originally, the Queen of the West also taught me some martial arts, but she was very busy and had no time to teach us. How about Miss Zhou?  Am I good at martial arts?"

    Zhou Xiuying quickly nodded in agreement. The two women chatted and came to the river. There were already female soldiers from the female camp washing clothes, mostly for the male soldiers from the male camp. The female soldiers were laughing and chatting while washing clothes.  , what a lively scene.

    Li Xuanji took out Xiwang's clothes, but found something sticky on his pants, and wondered what it was.  An older female soldier on the side looked at it and chuckled and said: "Sister Li, this is the dirt on men's private parts. We have washed so many clothes and seen a lot." Then she explained in detail.  .

    Li Xuanji and Zhou Xiuying's pretty faces turned red with embarrassment. Li Xuanji didn't know whether to wash her hands. The older female soldier smiled and said: "Sister Li, you are still a big girl. If it's inconvenient, let us wash it."  Bar."

    Li Xuanji gritted her teeth and said, "It's okay. If you can wash it, I can wash it too." After saying that, her face turned red and she started scrubbing. Zhou Xiuying alsoBlushing, he took some clothes and started washing them with a mallet.

    The female soldiers sang Guangxi folk songs while bathing, and for a while the riverside was filled with laughter and laughter.  While they were cleaning, a dozen men holding weapons suddenly emerged from the reeds on the other side of the river.  The female soldiers were very alert. When they saw someone about to cross the river, they hurriedly raised their voices to warn. Dozens of female soldiers dropped their clothes, pulled out the knives from their waists and stood together. Li Xuanji also pulled out the long swords from her waist.  Dao shouted sharply: "Stop! Who are you?!"

    The dozen or so men were startled when they saw the female soldiers on the other side pulling out their long knives and standing in a row. They seemed not to have expected that these big-footed barbarians were washing clothes with weapons. The leading man hurriedly shouted  Said: "Are you soldiers and horses of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom? Don't get me wrong, we are members of the Little Sword Society who escaped from the city. I am Liu Lichuan, the chief helmsman of the Little Sword Society. I want to meet your general in heaven." (To be continued.)
