After seeing Xia Hui's appearance clearly, Zhou Tai's pupils couldn't help shrinking, and his face was suddenly full of surprise and incomprehension, as if he was worried that he had seen it wrong, Zhou Tai looked at Xia Hui again, and when he was sure that he was not wrong, the expression on Zhou Tai's face also changed from surprise to deep thought.

Xia Hui originally knew Zhou Tai, and he had heard the guards report that Zhou Tai had asked to see her, and he was worried that Zhou Tai would come and recognize her, so he deliberately knocked over the cups and bowls and then kowtowed to admit his mistake and hurt his forehead.

After a few days of contact, Xia Hui also probably figured out Liu Chan's temperament, she knew that Liu Chan treated his subordinates leniently on weekdays, and if he was injured, Liu Chan would definitely not blame herself, and would let herself go back to treat her injuries.

It's just that Liu Chan seems to have treated his subordinates a little too well, and he didn't let her go back to treat her injuries, but left her here and gave her medicine. In this way, several maids in this room, she alone seems to stand out from the crowd and attract attention.

Originally, Xia Hui wanted to avoid Zhoutai, but now it has the taste of stealing chickens and rice. If she knew that she didn't deliberately break the cups and bowls, even if Zhou Tai arrived, she hid behind the maid, maybe Zhou Tai wouldn't be able to find out.

Now seeing Dezhoutai's expression, Xia Hui also knew that he couldn't hide, and Zhoutai had already recognized her. glanced at Liu Chan, who was washing his face, and the idea of assassinating Liu Chan now rose in his heart, but as soon as this thought rose, he was quickly suppressed by Xia Hui.

During this time, Liu Chan was wary of her, because she had to be searched when she went in and out on weekdays, and Xia Hui couldn't do anything if she wanted to hide a weapon on her body. Seeing that his identity was about to be exposed, even if Xia Hui wanted to assassinate Liu Chan at this moment to be the last one, he was powerless.

And Liu Chansheng is tall and mighty, leading troops to fight all the year round, and must have martial arts, she has also heard people say that Liu Chan is a top master, Xia Hui has no blade in his hand, and it is impossible to assassinate Liu Chan and succeed.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if the rumors about Liu Chan's martial arts are false, with Liu Chan's tall figure, even if she has the equipment on her body, she still has to take down Liu Chan.

What's more, there is Zhou Tai on the side, this thief has just been entrusted with a heavy task by Liu Chan, and is about to show his strength and establish a career, if she does it, then Zhou Tai will definitely not sit idly by, and when the Han army hears the news, waiting for her can only be a dead end.

Xia Hui is a very smart person, and in a moment she thought clearly about the path she could take, so she chose to wait and see what happened. She understood that if she did something to Liu Chan, it would definitely be a dead end, and if she didn't do it, even if Liu Chan knew her true identity, there was still room for maneuver.

"Your Majesty......" pondered for a while, and a sneer appeared at the corner of Zhou Tai's mouth, he likes fame and fortune, and he can betray the officials of Nanyang in order to be on top, and now he sees Xia Hui lurking beside Liu Chan, it is very likely that he is waiting for an opportunity to assassinate Liu Chan, how can he give up this opportunity to invite merit?

"What?" Liu Chan washed his face, wiped his palms, and turned his head to look at Xiang Zhoutai.

Zhou Tai arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen suddenly thought of an important matter to report, and he could only say it to His Majesty alone. Please also ask Your Majesty to retreat left and right, or let Wei Chen talk closely. ”

Zhou Tai is very shrewd, and he doesn't dare to directly break Xia Hui's identity, if Liu Chan knows that Xia Hui's identity is to be used, or does he fall in love with Xia Hui? If this is the case, he broke it in front of him, but touched Liu Chan's brow, and the original meritorious service became a crime.

Liu Chan smiled and said, "Then you come and tell me!" ”

When Zhou Tai heard this, he walked to Liu Chan's side and wanted to talk to Liu Chan in detail.

Seeing this, Xia Hui stood up from his seat, looked at Zhou Tai with disdain and said, "Zhou Tai, I don't need you to say it, I'll say it myself!" ”

Zhou Tai snorted coldly when he heard this, and without waiting for Xiahou Hui to speak, he pointed at Xia Hui domineeringly and said to Liu Chan: "Hmph! Your Majesty, this daughter is the daughter of Xiahou Shang, Sima Yi's daughter-in-law Xiahou Hui, she is disguised as a subordinate and lurks beside His Majesty, she must be waiting for an opportunity to assassinate, and please let Your Majesty know! ”

"Xiahou Hui?" Liu Chan frowned when he heard this, and then he remembered that there was indeed such a figure in history, Xiahou Hui was the daughter of Xiahou Shang, one of Cao Wei's eight biaos, who was very knowledgeable and generous, and was the wife of Sima Yi's eldest son, Sima Shi, whenever Sima Shi had any ideas, Xiahou Hui always gave advice to him.

At that time, Cao Pi was dead, and the Wei State was ruled by Cao Rui, at that time, the Sima family was high and powerful, and the father and son were all eloquent, and there was a faint ambition exposed, Xiahou Hui knew that the father and son of the Sima family were not pure ministers, and Sima Yi also felt a little hindered by Xiahou Hui, the daughter of the Cao Wei clan.

Because Xiahou Hui's father Xiahou Shang had already died of illness when he married Sima Shi, Sima Shi had no scruples and poisoned his wife Xiahou Hui, who had been with him for several years.

It's just that Liu Chan can't figure it out is that Xiahou Hui was born in 211 and died in 234, and Sima Sheng had five daughters in history, even if he gave birth to one a year, Xiahou Hui should have married Sima Shi at least in 229.

And now it's 231 years, Xiahou Hui should have married Sima Shi a long time ago, why did he appear here? Listening to what Zhou Tai said, Xiahou Hui and Sima Shi are indeed in that kind of relationship.

Liu Chan groaned, "Oh? You say this is Xiahou Shang's daughter? Xiahou Shang is also considered to be the Cao Wei clan, why is his daughter in Wancheng Taishou Mansion? ”

Zhou Tai explained: "In the early years, Xiahou Shang was a general in Nanyang, his wife was Cao Zhen's sister, and his wife and daughter were also in Nanyang...... Cao Cao, Cao Pi favored Xin, although he was majestic, but he also had a lot of enemies, and his brother Cao Zhen was in Guanzhong, so it was difficult to take care of each other.

Xiahou Hui's mother was worried that she would be bullied when she returned to Luoyang, and in the early years, Sima Yi and Xiahou Shang had set up a baby kiss, and after Xiahou Shang Cao Ren died, it was Sima Yi's turn to sit in Nanyang, so Xiahou Hui's mother took her to live in Nanyang, and there was just a response between the in-laws. ”

"Oh?" Liu Chan groaned: "Then Sima Yi has already left Nanyang, since Xiahou Hui and Sima Shi have a marriage contract, at such an age, they should have already been married." ”

"When Sima Yi left Nanyang, Xiahou Hui's mother was seriously ill and could not travel far, and died not long after, and then Sima Yi urged Xiahou Hui and Sima Shi to marry many times, but Xiahou Hui has been reluctant to marry Sima Shi in the name of filial piety, which makes Weichen a little puzzled."

Zhou Tai glanced at Xiahou Hui as he spoke, and he couldn't understand it in his heart, he didn't know why she wanted to stay in Nanyang to suffer if she didn't let go of the huge Sima family, and now she is twenty years old, in this era, she has not married at the age of twenty, but it is a very rare thing.

In the past two years, Sima Yi has not sent anyone to mention to Xiahou Hui about marrying Sima Shi, but I am afraid that he no longer plans to have this daughter-in-law.

Zhou Tai couldn't figure it out and didn't want to, so he arched his hand and continued: "But Your Majesty, this woman has always lived next door to the Taishou Mansion, and when Weichen was a general under Sima Yi, she had seen her a few times. Now that she is pretending to be a subordinate to stay in the Taishou Mansion, she must be planning to be unfavorable to His Majesty and plotting against him, and she also asks His Majesty to investigate. ”

"Your Majesty, the Minnu is indeed the daughter of Xiahou Shang Xiahou Hui is good, but there is also a reason for concealing her identity, please forgive me!" At this time, Xiahou Hui knelt on the ground, and the mournful voice reached Liu Chan's ears.

Liu Chan smiled and said, "Oh? Then tell me, why did you pretend to be a servant and approach me? ”

Xiahou Hui glanced at Zhou Tai, and the poignant and moving voice sounded again: "It's not a secret, the folk girl has lived in Nanyang with her mother for several years, because the folk girl has a marriage contract with Sima Yi's son Sima Shi, so she has a close relationship with the Sima family.

But after getting along for a long time, the folk girl found that Sima Yi was not a pure minister, and the knowledge he taught Sima Shi was mostly a scheming, a royal family, and a way to win people's hearts. His Majesty's current reuse of this state Tai is Sima Yi's confidant cultivated when he was in Nanyang, and Hu Zhen also exchanged letters during his tenure in Nanyang. ”

"Bastard, what nonsense are you talking about?" When Zhou Tai heard this, he was immediately furious.

Xiahou Hui naturally didn't have the slightest affection for this Zhoutai who ruined his plan, and said with a sneer: "If people don't know, unless you don't do it, you are a person of filial piety, dare to swear by your father and say that there is no collusion with Sima Yi?" ”

If it is an ordinary person, he will swear an oath, but Zhou Tai is a contradiction, he is a person of filial piety, let him swear by his own Lao Tzu, he really can't do it.

Zhou Tai could only kneel down to Liu Chan and express his loyalty: "Your Majesty, Weichen has had correspondence with Sima Yi over the years, but it is just to reminisce about old feelings, and there is never any other meaning. What's more, now that Wechen is a Hanchen, His Majesty is so kind to Wechen, Wechen will never do anything to be sorry for the Han. Please also ask Your Majesty not to listen to this witch's nonsense. ”

"Get up!" Liu Chan waved his hand, looked at Xiahou Hui and said, "You go on!" ”

Xiahou Hui glanced at Zhou Tai and continued: "After the folk girl learned about Sima Yi's character, she was estranged from the Sima family.

Sima Yi urged the folk girl to marry her son several times, but the folk girl only excused herself in the name of filial piety, so as not to be affected by the Sima family in the future. ”

Liu Chan listened to Xiahou Hui's words, and nodded secretly in his heart, he had the wisdom to know people, and he could see that this Xiahou Hui was not lying, and he couldn't help but admire Xiahou Hui a little in his heart, what kind of character Sima Yi is, she is a female streamer who can see Sima Yi's personality, which is really good.

As for why Xiahou Hui failed to see the true face of the Sima family in history, it is mainly related to time.

In history, Xiahou Shang died in 226, Xiahou Hui should have married Sima Shi before and after Xiahou Shang died of illness, because Xiahou Shang was in Nanyang and Sima Yi was in Beijing, the two sides did not have much contact, and Xiahou Hui failed to see the true face of the Sima family and married into the wolf's den.

And now in this time and space, because of Liu Chan, Xiahou Shang was captured by Liu Chansheng in 220 years, Xiahou Hui and the Sima family were in Nanyang later, and the two sides had deep contact, and Xiahou Hui saw the ambition of the Sima family before marrying into the Sima family, and withdrew in time.

Liu Chan continued to ask: "Then tell me, why did you appear in the Taishou Mansion?" Still pretending to be a subordinate? ”

Xiahou Hui replied unhurriedly: "Sima Yi has a good relationship with Hu Qian, and before leaving, he once told Hu Zhen to take care of the people's daughter, and after a few years, the people's daughter and Hu Taishou are also called uncles and nephews.

A few days ago, His Majesty led troops into the city, and Hu Taishou brought me into the mansion and wanted to send the people away, but His Majesty used soldiers like a god, and Hu Taishou had not had time to send the people away, and His Majesty had led the troops into the house. The folk girl was worried that the leakage of her identity would lead to murder, so she pretended to be a member of the house, and His Majesty knew about the rest of the matter. ”

"Oh? Is that really the case? Liu Chan had a playful smile on his face.

Xiahou Hui lowered his head and said: "What the people said is true, and I ask Your Majesty to see it, if Your Majesty doesn't believe it, it doesn't hurt to kill the people's daughter, but the people have a request, and I ask Your Majesty to agree." ”

"Tell me about it!"

Xiahou Huitou raised his head, looked at Liu Chan with a look of hope, and said: "Before my mother died, she left her last words, hoping that I could find my father's grave and bury them together. When I die, I ask Your Majesty to bury our family of three together. ”

Xiahou Hui originally wanted to assassinate Liu Chan to avenge her father, but now she knows that she has no chance, Liu Chan knows her identity, even if she doesn't kill her, I'm afraid she will end up under house arrest.

Therefore, Xiahou Hui can only take a step back, wanting to complete her mother's last wish by dying, Xiahou Hui lost his father when he was young, his mother was sick, and he didn't take enough care of Xiahou Hui, and he couldn't enjoy family affection before his death, and it was not bad for the family to be buried together after death.

After saying that, Xiahou Hui picked up the broken bowl on the ground and scraped it towards his throat.

"What are you doing!" Seeing this, Liu Chan moved his body, and instantly arrived in front of Xiahou Hui, and grabbed Xiahou Hui's arm when the bowl was about to touch the snow-white neck.

Xiahou Hui's wrist hurt, the bowl fell to the ground, looking at the father-killing enemy in front of him, he didn't know why he wanted to stop himself.

Liu Chan let go of Xiahou Hui's arm, sighed and said: "Over the years of marching and fighting, I don't know how many people have died because of my family, although your request is insignificant, but after you die, I will kill one more." ”

"Kill one more?" When Xiahou Hui heard this, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he immediately showed a look of surprise: "You mean that my father is not dead?" ”

Liu Chan smiled and said, "He is alive and well in Chang'an, who told you that he is dead?" ”

"Is my dad still alive? Daddy, she's still alive? Xiahou Hui burst into tears of joy for a while.

Immediately, Xiahou Hui wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said to Liu Chan: "Your Majesty, the people haven't seen their father since they were children, and I ask Your Majesty to let the people see my father." ”

Liu Chan smiled and said: "A gentleman has the beauty of an adult, and it is not difficult for you to meet your father, but you have to promise me one condition." ”
