Chapter 437: The Last Breakfast
Xue Shen shrank his shoulders, resigned, and even claimed that "my father taught me".
Xue Zhao said: "What are you doing to me about this?" ”
"......" Xue Shen gritted his teeth, hesitated for a moment before he relented, and bowed his head to Xue Jinyi and apologized: "Princess Chu, it was the lower officials who were reckless, please don't be surprised, your teachings, the lower officials should keep them in mind and follow them." ”
"That's good." Xue Jinyi smiled and nodded, as for whether Xue Shen really learned a lesson, now is not the time to care. She turned to Xue Zhao and said, "Father, Ah Xuan and her daughter are here to accompany you to breakfast." ”
"Hmm." Xue Zhao nodded.
The three of them entered the main tent together, Xue Shen didn't want to go in, but when he heard his father's call in the tent, he had to go in.
Breakfast was already set on the table, and the family of three was happy and warm, which made him feel like a superfluous existence.
As soon as Xue Jinyi came, his father didn't take him seriously......
Xue Shen pouted, eating sullenly, but his ears were alertly propped up, listening to the whispered conversation between the three of them.
"This time to Mingwei, I called some strong martial arts people to secretly protect you, to prevent someone from fishing in troubled waters and endangering the life of the virtuous son-in-law."
"Thank you, father-in-law."
"No thanks, I hope that my son-in-law can return safely. In addition...... Xue Zhao took out a piece of paper from his arms and pushed it in front of Ai Yun, "This is the map of a secret passage outside Mingwei, as well as the door lock key, you take it with you, and when you have to, use it to save your life." ”
Ai Yun picked up the piece of paper, and there was a small key in it, he looked at it, and put it in his arms.
Xue Zhao looked at Xue Shen and said coldly: "You must not leak the matter of the secret path. ”
Xue Shen recovered from the surprise that there was a secret passage outside Mingwei, and answered honestly: "Father rest assured, son understands." ”
Xue Zhao continued to talk to Ai Yun, "Actually, you don't have to think too much, just let it be." If the peace talks do not go well, our Great Zhou soldiers will never allow those barbarians to attack. ”
Xue Shen was secretly unfair, why did his father suddenly be so tolerant and kind to the King of Chu?
Is it dying to the end, and finally I can't bear it anymore and let go of my usual posture?
Xue Shen is not very comfortable, he is still his own son, why hasn't his father ever been kind to him?
His gaze glanced at Ai Yun's chest intentionally or unintentionally, he had been on the frontier with his father for many years, and he had never heard of any secret ways, this His Royal Highness the King of Chu was really lucky to get so many treats and benefits.
The more I thought about it, the more unfair it became, and the cake in my hand looked more and more unpleasant, and Xue Shen took a bite viciously.
"Father, I wonder if there are anyone here who can change their faces?" Xue Jinyi spoke worriedly at this time.
Xue Zhao was puzzled, "What does Jinyi mean by this?" ”
"My daughter is really worried about Ah Xuan's safety...... Xue Jinyi looked at An Yun, her willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes showed slow concern and worry, "So, my daughter is thinking about whether she can let others look like Ah Xuan and negotiate peace on his behalf?" If there is any accident, at least Ah Xuan is safe. ”
Xue Shen listened, spit out the bread in his mouth, and accused: "What's the difference between you and escaping from the battle?" People have indicated that they want the prince to negotiate peace, if their identities are revealed and they annoy the barbarians, who will bear this sin? ”
Xue Zhao sighed.
Xue Shen was proud of his righteous words.
"Jinyi's worries are also normal."
“……”
Xue Shen looked at his father in disbelief.
Xue Zhao didn't look at him, "What if the people of Suo Guoren detain His Royal Highness the King of Chu and threaten Da Zhou?" Those people are insidious and vicious, haven't you realized it until now, Xue Shen? ”
"......" Xue Shen seemed to think of something, his shoulders trembled slightly while a trace of fear slipped through his eyes, "Isn't my son just worried that we are not rushing to give Suo Guo a legitimate reason to beat us?" ”
Xue Zhao waved his hand, "It's useless to say this, if there is a skilled player who is easy to disguise, I would have found a way to disguise myself into some face-stricken, let our own spies infiltrate their team, and turn defeat into victory." ”
The Great Zhou Dynasty was defeated and retreated, not only because the Suo State was strong this time, and the generals led the troops well, but also because the spies revealed the secrets of the defense of the perimeter and arranged the troops. After realizing these problems, he thought of various ways to deal with them, and tried his best to dig up the spies, but with little effect.
It is difficult to find out who has a problem, and it is easy for the generals to be suspicious of the people around them, causing more serious infighting and irreparable situations.
Because of such containment, how can it not make people anxious.
Otherwise, as the Wei Guo Gong of the Great Zhou, how could he tolerate such an arrogant demand for peace by Suo Guo?
Xue Shen lowered his eyes, picked up the cake and continued to eat, completely unaware that three lines of sight quickly passed over his face.
Xue Jinyi sighed and said, "Ah Xuan, then you must be more careful......
"Ah Jin, don't worry, just wait for me to come back here." Ai Yun took her hand and said softly.
Xue Shen glanced at them and sneered secretly.
I'm afraid that the one who will come back will not be a coffin.
The breakfast was hastily over, and the four of them came out of the main tent, Xue Shen looked at the father who was whispering to the king of Chu, and after scanning the circle or so, he nodded to Inspector Di.
Inspector Di stepped forward and respectfully bowed his hand to him.
Pu Yang's eyes swept over with a big grin, and seeing that Xue Shen seemed to be giving some order to Inspector Di, Inspector Di greeted a group of soldiers with a serious face and walked away.
He thought for a moment and gestured to his men.
Immediately someone followed Inspector Di.
It was almost time to set off, and although everyone seemed to be full of energy and confidence, a gloomy atmosphere permeated the team.
Xue Jinyi stroked Ai Yun's clothes, her eyes full of reluctance and worry.
Reluctance is acted, and the worry is real.
Why can't I see "Ai Yun" appear now, after Ah Xuan comes back, in order not to worry her, she will definitely appear in her sight.
Why, hasn't come back yet?
Xue Jinyi lowered her eyes, took a deep breath, and said to Ai Yun with a trembling voice: "Go early and come back early." ”
"Okay." Ai Yun took her hand and stared affectionately.
In the eyes of others, their husband and wife are really in love.
"Alright, let's go." Xue Zhao said in a loud voice.
Before the words fell, a man and a horse galloped over, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Duke Weiguo, Suo Guo asks to postpone the peace negotiation!" ”
When everyone heard this, they were all surprised.
Xue Zhao looked at the man beside him.
The real Puyang Xuan has returned?
Xue Jinyi raised her eyes and glanced at Xue Zhao calmly.
Xue Zhao was slightly shocked, and asked eagerly: "What's the matter, why don't you hurry up?!" ”
