After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine - Chapter 109
[Chapter 109]
Even when they got to Nanjing, because there was Huo Yuyan who wanted someone to take care of him along the way, the team that greeted him was still very slow.
It was not until the tenth day of the first day that the palace received a report from the scouts, saying that the team to welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the lords of Beiliang was about to arrive at Nanjing.
After receiving the news, Jiang Suizhou pondered for a moment, and said, “I see, go and invite Master Qi into the palace.”
The scout responded and withdrew.
“Do you want Qi Min to go out of the palace to meet him?” Huo Wu Jiu asked.
Jiang Suizhou nodded: “He is the most suitable.”
Huo Wu Jiu thought for a while, and then said, “If he sees Qi Min, he will definitely think more. Qi Min is also an old minister of Nan Jing, I leave it alone. There are not so many generals, but two old officials from Nanjing greet him – but Qi Min has a high official position, presumably after seeing Qi Min, he must have a lot of confusion.”
Jiang Suizhou nodded: “That’s what you mean.”
Huo Wu Jiu Yi raised his eyebrows: “At that moment, he will be asked to prepare a dinner party, and I will take care of him personally. At that time, I will show a little bit of ignorance, and I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it any more. Let’s do it.”
Jiang Suizhou thought for a moment after hearing the words, and said, “It’s a good idea.”
He saw Huo Wu Jiu stand up, walked around behind him, and put his arms around him, “Just stay in the palace, Wait for my news.”
Jiang Suizhou raised his head and looked at him when he heard the words: “You won’t let me go?”
Huo Wu Jiu frowned and said without thinking, “Of course you can’t go, what if he targets you? What to do?”
Jiang Suizhou shook his head, “But if I don’t go, he will be suspicious of you.”
Huo Wu Jiu’s voice sank.
“Whatever he suspects,” he said. “As far as I’m concerned, when I move him, it’s just for my pleasure. How can I let you risk yourself? Don’t make a fool of yourself.”
Jiang Suizhou couldn’t help but argue: “Now in Nanjing, what danger can there be?”
Huo Wu Jiu didn’t listen to him: “Then you can’t take risks. You just stay in the palace, even if he wants to know who you are, I don’t have the ability to reach the sky.”
Jiang Suizhou looked up at him and couldn’t help sighing in his heart.
He has to complicate simple things in order to protect himself, Huo Wu Jiu really can’t change that.
He took a two-point smile, looked serious, and looked at Huo Wu Jiu.
“How did I tell you before?” he said. “I don’t need you to protect me like this and cause trouble.”
Huo Wu Jiu’s attitude did not soften at all: “That’s not good, this time is different.”
Jiang Suizhou asked, “What’s different?”
Huo Wu Jiu said, “Huo Yuyan is very insidious, who knows what he will do.”
“But since stepping into Nanjing, he and his subordinates have all fallen under your surveillance, right?” Jiang Suizhou said. “What’s more, you and I both understand the current garrison situation in Lin’an. What he wants to do is simply difficult to ascend to the sky.”
Huo Wu Jiu made a mistake and stopped talking.
Jiang Suizhou knew that if he didn’t speak so much, he was justified but still cheating.
He stretched out his hand and took Huo Wu Jiu’s hand.
“If I’m not mistaken, he will follow these ministers, and he will definitely try to divide you.” He said. “Those ministers, ranging from official positions to small daily meals and daily living, are all places where you can do your work. You only know that these people are loyal to you, but you should also know that the human heart is the most fickle thing. Yangguan, Yecheng haven’t been to Yecheng a few times, can you be sure that you can grasp the thoughts of each courtier?”
Although Huo Wu Jiu had a cold face and a cold heart at this time, Jiang Suizhou’s hand was invulnerable. Covering the back of his hand, he still couldn’t help turning his hand over and clasped Jiang Suizhou’s hand into his palm.
“…not really,” he admitted.
The delicate thoughts of you and me among the civil servants are indeed a headache for him when he touches them.
“So you need mine.” Jiang Suizhou said. “I know them better than you.”
Huo Wu Jiu pursed his lips and stopped talking.
Then he heard Jiang Suizhou ask in a warm voice, “Would you like me to go with you at night?”
Huo Wu Jiu struggled for a while, and finally retorted: “…Then in what capacity are you attending? Now no one in the city does not know me and Huo Yuyan will definitely make things difficult for you regarding your relationship.”
Jiang Suizhou laughed in a low voice, pulled Huo Wu Jiu’s hand up, and put it on his face.
Huo Wu Jiu lowered his eyebrows and saw Jiang Suizhou sitting on the dragon chair looking up at him, a fox-like smile on his overly delicate face, making the soft red mole at the corner of his eye become vivid stand up.
“What’s so difficult about that?” Jiang Suizhou said. “Just think I’m a little white face that confuses your mind, and makes General Huo lose his mind and rely on me for everything, then if he sees your face, he will have to endure everything.”
Huo Wu Jiu lowered his eyes and looked at it. He clearly knew that he was deliberately pretending, but his Adam’s apple couldn’t help rolling up and down.
… She really is a fairy who can hook people’s souls away.
He swallowed his throat, and after a while, his teeth tightened, leaned down, pressed Jiang Suizhou on the dragon chair, and kissed it fiercely.
“You even take my life and forget it.”
Huo Wu Jiu gritted his teeth between the kisses.
——As
the current Chief Situ of Nanjing, Qi Min went out of the palace to meet Huo Yuyan, which really shows Huo Wu Jiu’s attention.
Everyone knew that Master Qi was going out of the city to meet Huo Yuyan today. Who is Mr. Qi? Counting now, seeing the person who is going to be a veteran of the four dynasties, even if Pang Shao is alive, he will be respected by half, but now, at the age of 70, being able to go out to the palace to meet Huo Yuyan is really a brotherhood between General Huo and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. .
But in Huo Yuyan’s eyes, this is not the case.
Hearing the news that Master Qi had been waiting outside the city, Huo Yuyan’s expression turned a little ugly. He responded calmly, lowered the curtain, and said nothing after that.
Jimin? No matter how famous he is, in Huo Wu Jiu’s eyes, it is nothing rare.
Huo Wu Jiu didn’t like civil servants, especially Qi Min, a sour Confucian who was full of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, and righteousness, who had betrayed his old master. If Huo Wu Jiu really valued him and had no quarrel with him, then why didn’t any of his generals come to greet him?
In Huo Wu Jiu’s eyes, any ten thousand households are more important than Qi Min.
For a while, Huo Yuyan couldn’t guess what Huo Wu Jiu was thinking.
Did he let Qi Min out of the city because of Li Sheng and he had a quarrel with him, or was he already suspicious, so he used Qi Min as a perfunctory? In other words, Huo Wu Jiu has no other intentions, just because of Qi Min’s reputation, in order to let the world see his attention to himself and his loyalty to the Northern Liang court, so as to give himself momentum and face?
Qi Min was so special that Huo Yuyan lost his mind for a while.
He thought for a while with a calm face. His body is useless at all, and it is even more inappropriate to think about it so much. The carriage went all the way, and when they arrived outside the city gate of Lin’an, Huo Yuyan was already exhausted physically and mentally, and was completely exhausted.
Looking at the towering city gate that was getting closer, he coughed a few times, endured the discomfort all over his body, held up a normal appearance, and sat upright in the carriage.
The carriage stopped, and the sound of the mountain outside rang.
“The ministers are instructed to welcome His Royal Highness!”
Then, a soldier opened the curtain for Huo Yuyan.
The eunuch came forward and helped Huo Yuyan out of the car. As soon as he supported Huo Yuyan’s arm, he felt the weakness of his body and couldn’t help but look at Huo Yuyan worriedly.
But seeing his expression as usual, there was actually a kind of gentle smile on his face.
The eunuch quickly retracted his gaze.
Huo Yuyan stood still in front of the carriage, let go of the eunuch’s hand, walked to Qi Min, and helped the trembling old minister.
“Master Qi is waiting here.” Huo Yuyan said gently.
However, seeing Qi Min’s indifferent expression, no enthusiasm, and only a businesslike appearance, he took a half step back and bowed: “I respectfully welcome His Royal Highness. Let’s catch the wind and wash the dust.”
Huo Yuyan looked as usual, but his eyes stopped on Qi Min’s face.
His appearance… Is it because he is an old minister of Nan Jing, or because of Huo Wu Jiu’s advice?
Huo Yuyan couldn’t bear Huo Wu Jiu’s attitude.
He swayed, and was quickly supported by the little eunuch who dared to come forward in a hurry. He smiled lightly, and when he turned back, he gestured with his eyes to the captain of the imperial guard who was following behind him, then turned his head and said with a warm smile, “I’m really tired. Then I will work hard, Sir Qi, and lead the way. ”
Qi Min responded with a cold face, turned around and left.
Lou Yue next to him saw all of this in his eyes.
He knew that Qi Min must be like Jiang Suizhou’s arrangement. Now Huo Yuyan rushed to Nanjing in person, just because he couldn’t understand Huo Wu Jiu’s attitude, he wanted to come and see it in person. Jiang Suizhou guessed it, so he asked the people around him to use some tricks, just to make Huo Yuyan undecided and become more uneasy.
People only make the most irrational choices when they are caught in a puzzle and indecisive.
Thinking of this, Lou Yue went up to meet him and said with a smile, “His Royal Highness doesn’t have to take it to heart. That old man Qi Min has a bad temper that no one likes to take care of. Your Highness must not bother with him.”
Huo Yuyan wanted to guess Huo Wu Jiu’s mind through these people, but he was a careful and thoughtful person. When people like him speculate about others, they are most likely to be confused by some details.
Then, they have to go their separate ways and make Huo Yuyan lose his head.
Sure enough, when Huo Yuyan heard this, he smiled and said warmly, “What’s the point of this? Master Qi is highly respected, and some temperaments are deserved, but I appreciate his true temperament.”
Lou Yue heard the words and said with a loud laugh “Your Highness is kind, the last commander is relieved! Your Highness, please get on the carriage.”
Huo Yuyan responded with a smile, and turned around to get into the carriage.
His current smile was already strong, but when he arrived in the palace, the smile on his face could no longer be sustained.
In the splendid banquet hall, all the civil and military officials were already seated, just waiting for him.
The top position was empty, presumably it was reserved for him.
However, the person sitting next to him was not Huo Wu Jiu.
It was a man dressed in the uniform of King Qin of Nanjing. He was extremely young, and he was born extremely beautiful, even so delicate that it was almost bewitching.
Under the lights, he gave him a faint smile, that smile was calm and meaningful, like a victor demonstrating against him.
The author has something to say: Huo Yuyan: … I seem to smell the breath of the same kind.
Jiang Suizhou: ;D Are you also a white lotus? Hello, your brother has been fascinated by me as King Zhou You, what are you here for?
Huo Yuyan: … a step late, damn it.
