Flirting

Although it is not clear what this matter is, Zhao Shiliu can conclude that it is a matter that has hit He Chonghai very hard.

Seeing them coming in, Ke Mao and Lu Li got up early to congratulate them, but He Chonghai just looked at them coldly.

He Yanxi was a little afraid of his gaze, so he couldn't help pulling Zhao Shiliu's hand even tighter, and walked forward together to salute and offer tea to He Chonghai.

He Chonghai ordered someone to accept the tea gift, asked the couple to sit down, said some innocuous words, and let them leave.

But when they reached the door, He Chonghai stopped them again: "Luota, you stay here, I have something to ask for your opinion."

He Yanxi glanced at Zhao Shiliu uneasily, just uneasy.

Zhao Shiliu patted his hands and said in a low voice, "It's okay, let's go." He left the room.

He Yanxi sat down on the chair on the right, guessing what his father wanted to ask him, maybe it was about Gu Shan'er, or something else, he couldn't guess, but he could feel the unusual atmosphere in the room.

Both Ke Mao and Lu Li set their eyes on him, obviously they knew the truth, but their eyes were too earnest, which made him more afraid to raise his head, and he didn't dare to look at He Chonghai's face look.

"Mao Bohaer, a native official of Shangxizhou, rebelled. He surrendered to Zhao Qian, governor of Chengzhou."

The tone of He Chonghai's words was very calm, but soon, his expression became anxious, and he stared at He Yanxi: "Luota, what do you think?"

He Yanxi hurriedly stood up, hesitantly said: "He...he surrendered...for...why?"

He Chonghai scolded angrily: "Because he is a fool! If he dared to betray me for a little money, I must screw his head off! What do you think, Luota?"

He Yanxi didn't understand what he was asking himself, hesitantly said: "Ah... yes... right."

He Chonghai asked forcefully: "What is it? I'm asking you how to take Shangxizhou back!"

"I do not know."

"Then what else do you know?"

A teacup was thrown on He Yanxi, and it broke, and the tea mixed with the tea splashed all over him.

"You only know about studying and being a woman, it's useless!"

He Yanxi didn't dare to utter a breath, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, but he just endured the sudden anger silently and tremblingly.

"Go away! What are you doing standing still, useless things."

When He Yanxi heard these words, he felt as if he had been pardoned, and hurriedly withdrew.

But when he reached the princess building, Ke Mao chased after him, and he shouted: "Lotta, wait, I have something to say to you."

He Yanxi knew that he had no eloquence, had never been on a battlefield, and had no military talent at all, so he didn't think it would be a serious matter to be scolded by his father, and he never thought about changing this. Killing things, he prefers some gorgeous words.

Therefore, he didn't feel that he had anything to say to Ke Mao, and he was not interested in hearing what Ke Mao said.

But because of his natural character of not rejecting people, he still stopped, intending to listen to what he had to say to himself.

"You know, the king expects a lot from you, that's why he was so angry just now. But it's not your fault, you don't know the cause and effect at all."

The military adviser's attitude was very kind, which made He Yanxi less nervous.

"So...can you tell me what happened?"

"This is the news that came early this morning. It is said that Mao Bohaer has defected to Zhao Qian, but, you know, Mao Bohaer is an old man who follows the king. What about mutiny?"

"I personally think that Zhao Qian has been planning Xizhou for these years, but he just arrived in the barbarian land and didn't have a firm foothold, so he has been standing still. But he has been secretly sending people to establish good relations with the surrounding local chieftain kings and officials, granting Property. I don’t think it’s the latest thing for Mao Bohar to come into contact with him.”

"This... But, he shouldn't just betray his father so easily. Could it be that their friendship over the past few years is comparable to the kindness his father has shown him over the past few decades?"

"Yes. However, there is kindness and resentment. Two years ago, Mao Boha'er's youngest son was assassinated because he offended the king with a few words. With Mao Boha'er's cleverness, how could he not know Did the king do it? It’s just that he didn’t say it.”

"Then... can't we send troops to take back Shangxi Prefecture?"

"It's easy to say, and we will take it back. It's just...the current situation is not good for us. The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to win a hundred battles. We are too unfamiliar with Zhao Qian, and we don't know his combat strategy. I don’t know how many generals he has. But they have Mao Bohar, who is too familiar with our general strategy, and this is what worries me.”

"Then can't we find out their details before sending troops?"

Ke Mao smiled and said: "That's exactly what I thought. Lota, I just want to tell you that you are not without brains, and I believe you will be a good leader in the future."

He Yanxi had never heard anyone say this to him. Although he just followed Ke Mao's words and knew that he had no common sense in this area, his affirmation and praise undoubtedly gave him great confidence, which made him His depressed mood improved.

But when he walked back to his residence, the buoyant mood quickly dissipated.

Still far away, he heard bursts of laughter coming from the yard, those laughters were so light and joyful.

And the thick and deep voice mixed with this light laughter was so piercing that it made him feel extremely distressed.

He walked to the door with some apprehension, looked inside through the half-open door, and saw his wife sticking to his guard.

Hucha's strong body and thick arms pierced his eyes, making him so sad that he almost shed tears.

He was lying on his back on the ground, with one hand raised above his head, and the other relaxed on his side.

And the slender body of his newly married wife straddled Hucha's body, bent down, tightly held Hucha's hand that was raised above his head with one hand, and pressed his hand with the other. Shoulder.

They were staring at each other, their faces were very close together, and they both had bright and happy smiles.

He suddenly realized that Gu Shan'er's beautiful and clever smile was not only for himself, he might not only like himself alone, he could even fall in love with other people very quickly, and then leave himself without even looking at him glance.

But the first time he was not resentful, but thinking about how to keep him and how to please him.

He wanted to leave here subconsciously, he didn't want the people in the yard to find him, and he didn't want to embarrass them.

However, Zhao Shiliu was very keen, he quickly noticed the abnormality at the door, and turned his head to look over.

"Brother Xi, are you back?" He smiled and stood up from Hucha and went to meet him.

How could he be so nonchalant?He Yanxi thought so, but tried his best to pretend nothing had happened, and smiled at him gently and modestly.

But there was a thorn in my heart, and I felt a dull pain.

This is his newly married bride, beautiful and generous, but now he is hugging someone else, and he doesn't even dare to question him, he is afraid that this will annoy him, after all, he is the most useless person , he could easily abandon himself.

Zhao Shiliu asked with concern: "What is the father looking for you to ask? Did he blame you?"

He Yanxi immediately absorbed warmth from such caring words, he felt that everything else was not important, no matter whether he was moved by others, as long as this person was by his side was enough.

It is enough to maintain this superficial peace and comfort.

He shook his head, and when he was about to say something, Hu Cha came over and said, "Lota, I should go. Ma'am, you can call me anytime if you need anything."

He smiled cheerfully, and his bronzed face showed a kind of brilliant brilliance.

Zhao Shiliu nodded to him, his eyes stayed on the smile on his mouth for a while.

As for Hucha, he hardly looked at He Yanxi when he said this, he had been looking eagerly at Zhao Shiliu, and even turned his head several times when he walked to the door.

This was what He Yanxi secretly observed, which made him resent Hu Cha even deeper. From a long time ago, he felt that the guard next to him should be changed, but he didn't have the guts to mention it to his father.

Because Hucha looked so honest, honest, strong and powerful, he didn't make even the slightest mistake.He couldn't find any reason to replace him.

He told Zhao Shiliu the reason why his father left him, and Zhao Shiliu was so happy that he almost blurted out: "This is really great."

He knew that his father had spent a lot of energy befriending the barbarians, and as the army grew stronger, some people had surrendered to him, but such a good result was beyond his expectation.

If Mao Bohar really joined his father's camp, then Shangxizhou would have won without a fight, which is definitely a situation that is very beneficial to his own side.

But seeing He Yanxi's ignorant expression, he knew that this person did not understand the prophecy behind this incident.This is not just someone's surrender, but Zhao Qian's ambition, a sleeping lion, he has already set his sights on the treasure land of Xizhou!

Zhao Shiliu, who was only two years older than He Yanxi, even though he already knew that he was a person without much resourcefulness, at this moment he couldn't help feeling that he was too naive.

"I think the father also wanted you to inherit his inheritance, so he tortured you like this." He barely suppressed his joy, and perfunctorily comforted He Yanxi who was in a bad mood.

"But I feel so tired. It would be great if the three elder brothers were here, so my father wouldn't always be holding me down."

He Yanxi sat on the chair, put his arms around Zhao Shiliu's waist, buried his head in his stomach, and rubbed his hands coquettishly.

Zhao Shiliu stroked his hair, he didn't dislike his closeness, that's why he decided to marry him in the first place.
