Qiao Xi frowned slightly.

Everyone in the world knows that she is the fiancée of Crown Prince Si Yu, so her revenge is naturally for the Qiao family and for the Crown Prince.

What does Su Heting mean by this?

Just as I was about to ask, I heard an old and somewhat detached voice ask, "What man? Where's the man? Whose man?"

A head with gray hair and gray eyebrows poked in from the door.

On top of this head lay the small head of a green snake, and underneath this head lay the head of a red fox that had sneaked out of the kitchen when Su Heting got angry.

Su Heting suppressed his anger instantly, walked up to the old man and called out, "Grandfather, why are you here?"

The old man persisted in asking, "What man? He boy, do you have a man?"

He glanced up and down at Su Heting, "Are you on top or on the bottom?"

Su Heting, "..."

My heart felt even more stuffy.

Just as he was about to make an excuse, the old man pushed him away with disdain, "Who are you? You're so rude, you're blocking my way."

Su Heting closed his eyes. Oh, my grandfather has forgotten about me again.

"and who are you?"

The old man poked his head in again and asked Qiao Xi, "When you say revenge, do you mean fighting?

Can we start now? The old man loves to watch fights."

Su Heting had already called someone, and Qiao Xi knew that the old man in front of him was the Shoushan old man who raised Su Heting. It was said that he was stupid and looked like a child, but his martial arts skills were unpredictable.

Qiao Xi bowed to the old man and said, "Qiao Xi greets Grandfather."

"grandfather?"

Shoushan was stunned, then he slapped his head and said, "Oh, I see, you are my grandson's new wife."

His hands were broad and his palms were thick, and this slap directly made the green snake on his head see golden light, sway, and fall off his head in a daze.

This kind of thing probably happened all the time. Shoushan skillfully caught the green snake and casually stuffed it into his arms. He held the red fox's neck with his left arm and walked in front of Qiao Xi. He extended his right hand and said with a grin, "Candy!"

Qiao Xi was puzzled and looked at Su Heting inquiringly.

Shoushan explained himself, "You got married, but you haven't treated me to wedding candy yet."

Where is the sugar on Qiao Xi?

Although he was angry with Qiao Xi, Su Heting still came out to rescue her, "Grandfather, we didn't know you would be coming today, and we didn't bring anything with us. I'll give it to you later."

"I want to eat now."

Shoushan swallowed his saliva, looking pitiful.

Qiao Xi inexplicably thought of the first time she saw the red fox.

Then, she saw Shoushan's eyes fall on the new jade pendant on Su Heting's waist. He pulled it off and stuffed it into her hand. "Be good, this is a meeting gift. Go buy it now. The old man wants to eat it."

Qiao Xi, “…”

"You don't give me candy, do you think I'm crazy?"

Seeing that Qiao Xi didn't move, Shoushan drooped his shoulders, and his childlike clear eyes were full of loss.

Being interrupted, Qiao Xi and Su Heting couldn't continue their conversation. It would be better to give Su Heting some time to calm down. Qiao Xi took the jade pendant and said with a smile, "I'll go now. Please wait."

Looking at the red fox that rolled its eyes after being strangled by Shoushan, Qiao Xi thought of what Su Heting said when the red fox first arrived. She guessed that the fox must have made a mistake and had come here to hide. Now it was probably going to be punished by the old man, so she asked, "Can you let it accompany me to buy it?"

The red fox and the green snake have been with Qiao Xi these days and are very kind to her. Qiao Xi wants to rescue them.

Shoushan shook his head, took out the unconscious green snake from his arms, and said seriously, "The old man and your aunt have something important to discuss, so your aunt should accompany you."

Qiao Xi began to understand why Su Heting regarded the snake and fox as elders.

He had no choice but to take the soft green snake and leave the kitchen.

As soon as she left the house, Shoushan jumped up and tried to hit Su Heting.

Su Heting dodged.

Shoushan chased after the red fox, cursing, "Little Green refused to marry you, Little Red looked down on you, Big White disliked you for not having wings, Old Black disliked you for not being as strong as him, even that little girl Dong Chunyan disliked you for your poor family background.

It's easy to find a wife, and now you finally have one, and you're still mean to her. What if she runs away?"

"Keep your voice down."

Su Heting was helpless.

My grandfather's memory is sometimes good and sometimes bad.

When the original body had just turned fifteen, his grandfather wanted him to get married and wanted to catch all the birds and beasts in the mountains to pair him up.

After he came back to life, his grandfather never mentioned this matter again, but he didn't expect to bring it up again today.

However, Su Heting was grateful that his grandfather showed up in time.

I just asked such a question because I was extremely angry.

At that time, he was the crown prince of a country. Apart from the emperor, there was no one more noble than him in the whole of Dayou. He once thought that he was not bad.

But Qiao Xi abandoned him and chose someone else.

No matter who Qiao Xi answered, it would be humiliating for him, and it would undoubtedly be like an arrow piercing his heart.

Fortunately, his grandfather regained his sanity and saved his dignity.

"Are you hungry?"

Seeing that Shoushan's hair was messy from chasing him, Su Heting stopped hiding and let Shoushan pat his forehead.

It was lifted high and then dropped gently.

Shoushan said earnestly, "A wife is meant to be coaxed. It's pitiful enough that the girl has no family to rely on, and she was kidnapped by a bandit like you. You should be sweeter."

It was rare for Su Heting to hear Shoushan speak so seriously. "Are you awake?"

Shoushan ignored him and sniffed, "I'm hungry."

Su Heting handed him his bowl of porridge and was about to tidy his hair when he saw Shoushan looking up at him, "Who are you? Where are my grandsons? Did they go after my granddaughter-in-law? Can you help me find them?"

When Su Heting found Qiao Xi, she was buying a veil hat at a stall. The original one was left at Xu An's house.

He didn't come forward, but followed her leisurely.

Qiao Xi seemed to sense something, and turned around to see him following behind her. She stopped and the two looked at each other from a distance.

After a while, Qiao Xi finally walked up to Su Heting and asked, "Grandpa, what flavor of candy do you like?"

“He’s not picky.”

Having said that, Su Heting still walked ahead of Qiao Xi and led her into a small shop. He said to the shopkeeper, "Pack some of each and send it to the house."

Qiao Xi's eyes moved slightly.

This is Su Heting’s shop.

Su Heting did not hide his plan from her and walked to the back of the shop.

Qiao Xi followed and found that there was a courtyard behind the shop. Su Heting pushed open the door of the south room.

He sat down and said, "Three days later, have Xu An send troops to Yanzhou."

Yanzhou is the city next to Liangzhou.

After hearing him talk about the cooperation, Qiao Xi quickly straightened his expression and said, "Liangzhou will send at most 10,000 soldiers."

Currently, there are only 45,000 soldiers in Liangzhou, including the 5,000 soldiers given by Su Heting. If too many are dispatched, she is worried that someone will take the opportunity to attack Liangzhou, and Liangzhou will be lost.

The attack on Yanzhou by Xu An was just a gimmick, the main force was the Xinjiang North Army.

Su Heting had no objection to Qiao Xi's words, and only mentioned, "Lou Xin's 5,000 men have considerable combat experience and can be brought along."

"it is good."

Lou Xin and his men followed Su Heting to resist the barbarians, and they were indeed more combat-effective than the troops guarding Liangzhou. This was also what Qiao Xiben planned.

Su Heting talked about some arrangements for the capture of Yanzhou, and Qiao Xi wrote them down one by one. If there was any need for cooperation from Liangzhou, Qiao Xi would raise any different ideas in a timely manner.

In the small house, Shoushan received various candied fruits and candies. Upon learning that Su Heting and Qiao Xi were together, he gave Red Fox a wicked smile, "Hehehe, quarrels hurt feelings. Fortunately, your father was smart and stopped them in time. Otherwise, when would I be able to hold my great-grandson, hehe..."

After laughing, he looked at Su Heting's room with disdain, "Fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. Such a boring room, what's the point of making up.

Let's go to the flower shop and find some gauze and incense to decorate the place. We should also hang up the Thirty-Six Spring Pictures and the Seventy-Two Sex Positions so that your eldest nephew can learn from them."

The red fox was being strangled by him and felt like he had no desire to live. When he heard this, a gossipy gleam in his eyes.

It feels that it can live a little longer.

Su Heting and Qiao Xi knew nothing about this.

The two of them communicated back and forth with each other in a tacit understanding, but there was also a sense of alienation that was obvious to outsiders.

When the matter was finally settled, the room fell into silence.

Qiao Xi felt Su Heting's coldness and knew that he was still angry about the arranged marriage, so she had no intention of chatting with him.

After pouring a cup of tea for Su Heting, he asked directly, "When does the prince plan to contact the Yao family?"
