Disdainful, and just about to say something, the official of the pavilion who had just delivered the letter appeared at the door again and shouted, "Mr. Shao." ”

Shao Sansheng received the letter and put it in his sleeve, walked quickly to the door, and after talking with the messenger, he hurried back to report: "The eldest prince, the envoy of the Patriotic State in Qijing, Chen Kanghe, asks to see him." ”

Shao Pingbo was silent for a moment, as if he was a little surprised, and finally nodded, "Please." ”

He also wanted to see what the envoy wanted to do.

Shao Sansheng returned to meet him outside the gate and communicated with the guards.

After a while, an elegant man in a famous brocade dress came outside the gate, and several followers were stopped by the guards of the three major factions.

The person who was stopped insisted on following in, but the person who stopped insisted on not letting in.

The man in Chinese clothes turned around, and when he saw that this place was so cautious and protective, he became more and more aware of it, smiled slightly, waved his hand at the person he brought, signaling that he didn't need to follow, and the dispute at the door calmed down.

Shao Pingbo went to the courtyard and greeted him, "Master Kang, look up for a long time." ”

"Oops!" Kang He walked quickly, looked up and down, and said, "Young Master Shao, he is really a talent!"

"Kangda people praise falsely, there is an invitation inside!" Shao Pingbo turned sideways to give way, stretched out his hand to invite, and led the guests to the hall to sit down.

Shao San Province served tea, and it was inevitable that the guests would be polite.

After a few polite words, under Shao Pingbo's advice, Kang He had no intention of going around, and made his intentions clear, "Xianggong learned that Shao Gongzi was in trouble in Weidu, and sent this envoy to relieve Shao Gongzi's siege. ”

Shao Pingbo smiled, "What's my trouble?" I wondered in my heart, was Wei Guo well-informed, or had the matter already spread?

Kang He didn't know the specific situation here, Xuan Wei didn't know much, how much could he know? But he deceived the other party with words, "Shao Gongzi just left Beizhou with his front foot, and Niu Youdao rushed to Beizhou from the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate with his back foot, and pounced. Now that Niu Youdao has left Beizhou and rushed to Qijing by birds, it is menacing, isn't this trouble?"

He didn't know that Niu Youdao was on the way to Qijing, purely to scare Shao Pingbo.

However, it did hit Shao Pingbo's weakness, and the only thing that can make him jealous at present is Niu Youdao, and when he heard that Niu Youdao had rushed to Qijing, his heart sank.

Because with his understanding of Niu Youdao, it is indeed possible for Niu Youdao to chase and kill him, and it is indeed possible to take advantage of the situation when he is weakest.

I didn't expect Niu Youdao to have a flying mount as a foot force, he has basically lost the access to outside news, not to mention Niu Youdao, and he doesn't even know what the situation in Beizhou is now.

"Why did Prime Minister Wei break the siege for me?" asked Shao Pingbo.

Kang He's spirits perked up, it seemed that Xianggong's judgment was correct, and he immediately said: "Xianggong greatly appreciates Gongzi's talents, and the land of Beizhou is not enough to display Gongzi's talents, and Xianggong is willing to provide Gongzi with a greater place to display his talents." If the prince goes, the father-in-law promises that he will be treated as a countryman!"

Shao Pingbo sighed, and then asked: "Then how can we break the siege? Could it be that Niu Youdao can still listen to Wei Xiang, or that Wei Xiang wants to help me kill him?"

Kanghe: "There is no need for the son to worry about this, the prince has his own way to relieve the son's worries." ”

Shao Pingbo pondered for a while, and slowly bowed his head and said: "Okay! As long as Wei Xiang can solve my worries, I am willing to work for Wei Xiang!"

Kang and secretly rejoiced, he didn't expect the other party to agree so happily.

At this moment, a voice came from outside: "The Princess of England has arrived!"

Shao Pingbo got up when he heard the sound, Kang He also stood up, and took two steps forward to admonish, "This matter must not be leaked, lest someone make things difficult, I will arrange it for Gongzi, and Gongzi will wait for my news." When the princess came to see her brother, I didn't bother and took my leave. ”

"Waiting for the good news of Lord Kang. Shao Pingbo gave it away.

Outside the courtyard gate, the carriage stopped, and Shao Liu'er, who was ringing and clanging, got out of the carriage and entered luxuriously and gracefully, and no one was stopped by the guards at the door.

is not only the princess of the prince of Qi State, but also the younger sister of Shao Pingbo, and the guards here naturally no one dares to stop them.

When I walked to the yard, I just happened to bump into Kanghe, who was leaving.

Shao Liu'er couldn't help but look at it twice, and Kang He also bowed his hand, and then left quickly.

"I've seen the princess. Shao Pingbo, who also came, also bowed his hand, Shao Liuer's current identity is here after all, everyone talks about his identity in front of everyone, and only sees the relationship between brother and sister in private.

"Brother!" Shao Liu'er smiled.

The brother and sister entered the hall, and under Shao Liu'er's wave of his hand, an attendant maid put down a box on the table, and then all the irrelevant people withdrew.

The hall was slightly quiet, and the sound of Shao Sanxing pouring tea and pouring water was clear.

"But what does the prince command?" Shao Pingbo broke his calm, with a slight expectation in his heart.

"Yes!" Shao Liu'er bowed her head and pointed to the box on the case, "This is a little bit of the prince's heart, let me send it." ”

Shao Pingbo: "Do you have any other instructions?"

Shao Liu'er said calmly: "That person has always been a duty, and he can't do things that use power for personal gain, you are my brother and his brother-in-law, and it is really inconvenient for the prince to hire his brother, he is afraid of gossip, and he doesn't know how to open his mouth to his brother, so he has to let me convey it." ”

Shao Pingbo stared at her coldly for a while, and suddenly said, "I want to see the prince." ”

Shao Liu'er: "There's no need for that, why make it difficult for the prince." ”

Shao Sanxing, who was standing next to him, had a complicated expression, looking at the two brothers and sisters, the young lady had changed, and when she saw the eldest prince, she was no longer afraid and afraid.

Shao Pingbo: "Is it because the prince refuses to see me, or do you not want the prince to see me?"

Shao Liu'er: "Brother, let me ask you, tell me honestly, did you ignore your father's life and death, took your father to lure the enemy, abandoned your father and ran away?"

Shao Pingbo was slightly angry: "That's not called ignoring my father's life or death, that's taking care of the overall situation, my father holds the power of Beizhou's soldiers and horses, no matter who intervenes in Beizhou, he won't watch Beizhou's chaos, and naturally he won't embarrass his father." ”

Shao Liu'er: "What about Niu Youdao? Does he need to take care of the overall situation of Beizhou? He is afraid that he wants the Shao family to control the chaos in Beizhou, right? Are you not afraid that he will kill his father?"

Shao Pingbo was silent for a moment, and then argued with reason: "That's impossible, Dachan Mountain won't let him mess around, and if Beizhou is in chaos, Dachan Mountain will have no way to retreat." ”

"I don't understand this, it's already happened, and I'm still too careful to worry about it. Shao Liu'er got up and wandered in the hall, "The prince wanted to protect you at first, and he specially wrote a letter to Niu Youdao for this purpose, but after Niu Youdao replied to the letter, the prince immediately changed his attitude. The prince specially showed me the letter to test my heart......"

She said the contents of the letter, her memory is quite good, and she read it once, not to say a word, but also to repeat it about the same.

Shao Pingbo's chest rose and fell rapidly, his face turned red, but he did not doubt that there was a fake, this is like Niu Youdao's means, the nursery rhyme of the king of Beizhou made him see Niu Youdao's sharp ability to spread rumors, and today he is considered to be taught again, and the letter is full of heart-wrenching words!

As soon as he heard it, he knew that even if Haozhen had the heart, he wouldn't dare to use him anymore.

A letter cut him off and made him angry enough!

Shao Sanxing, who was on the side, looked at him with great concern, worried that his old illness would recur.

Because I know that it's okay to face others, but as soon as there is a way for a pair of bulls, this son is easy to get angry and attack.

It's just that this arrogant eldest son has few opponents, but he has been repeatedly defeated in the hands of Niu Youdao, and that arrogance is a little difficult to face this shame.

What relieved him was that the eldest prince seemed to be tense this time.

Shao Liu'er walked up to Shao Pingbo, "Brother, our own family naturally helps our family, as long as there is a suitable opportunity, I will definitely intercede for you on the prince's side." But I really didn't expect that the prince secretly had a connection with Niu Youdao, and I don't know what the relationship between them is, but I understand one thing, there is Niu Youdao who is a hindrance, and it is difficult for me to speak. ”

Shao Pingbo closed his eyes tightly, and finally took a deep breath and stood up, staring at his sister for a while, and suddenly smiled, "Do you want to borrow my hand to get rid of Niu Youdao, or do you want the two of us to fight and lose?"

Shao Liu'er blinked, "Brother, you misunderstood, I'm doing this for your good, otherwise he will always bite your words, how can you live in peace?"

"You don't have to worry about this, I will naturally get rid of him when I have the chance, you can live your own life in the future. Okay, I know your intentions and the meaning of the prince, so you can go back. ”

When Shao Liu'er said goodbye and walked to the door, Shao Pingbo suddenly said something again, "Liu'er, whether you believe it or not, I still have to tell you, I never thought of hurting you, and I have always remembered my mother's dying entrustment." ”

"Since I was a child, I tried my best to keep those messy things away from you, and I didn't want you to see those disgusting things, I wanted you to live a simple and happy life, and you didn't know what happened during the period. Now that I think about it, maybe I made a mistake and caused us to have a different understanding of people and things. ”

"In your opinion, it is I who is doing evil to separate you from that pedantic scholar and let you marry here. But in my opinion, in this troubled world, is it more important for a woman to fall in love or live well? Look at the white bones on the roadside, how many people have died without a place to be buried, and how many people have endured humiliation and stolen their lives, and have no food to eat! You and I, and many others, are not qualified to fall in love in this troubled era, and many of your ideas are too naïve, is it not good to make you a princess of England? How many women dream of things!

"Do you think I really have no way to go except to go to Haozhen? If you really think like this, then you can't help but underestimate your eldest brother, to put it mildly, the current Haozhen doesn't have enough power to make my heart move and have to take refuge. I'm just worried about the loss of Beizhou, I'm worried that you will lose the influence of that piece because of my loss, and I'm worried that you will be bullied if you don't have the power of your mother's family to rely on here, so I came here. ”

"Liu'er, all I've done is really just hope that you can live well. In this world, I can hurt anyone, but not you. ”

Shao Liu'er, who was standing at the door, listened with her back to her, and the corners of her mouth showed a touch of sarcasm, at this time, are you still trying to impress me with such words?

The skirt swayed, and she didn't look back, and she just walked away.

Shao Pingbo, who was standing in the hall and watching, slowly closed his eyes, his face was decayed and miserable, and he stood like a rotten tree.
