Xia Nan had to go to the downtown area every day to wait, and after several days, he didn't see that person again, so he slowly let go.

Five days later, when Yang Yu returned from Mangshan, he first went to visit Qufu in the east of the city as previously agreed.

Qu Mansion is located on Zhanghua Street, which is inhabited by some high-ranking families and princesses. The sheep tongue came to the door of Qu Mansion, looked at the dark wooden door in front of him, and the blue bricks and gray tiles on the side of the door, so that an entourage stepped forward to report his name. When the porter heard that it was someone who had made an appointment with his son-in-law, he hurriedly opened the door and let him in.

was taken to a quiet courtyard, and when the sheep tongue entered the door, he saw Qu Wu wearing a brocade robe, standing tall and jade, standing under an old pear tree with his back to him, holding a book in his right hand and reading it, indescribably chic and casual.

"Late nephew to meet Qu Bo!" Sheep Tongue stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

Although the Qu family and the sheep tongue family are large families in different vassal states, they have had contacts for generations. Moreover, Qu Wu and Sheep's Tongue Father had traveled and studied together, cherished each other, and formed a deep friendship. Therefore, at present, the two families are dealing with each other in the manner of world relations.

"No need to be polite! How has your father been in health in recent years?

Qu Wu turned around, invited Sheep Tongue to sit with him at the stone table under the old pear tree, and asked with concern about the current situation of his old friend.

"Father is fine, but I often miss you, uncle. A few days ago, when my little nephew was preparing to travel, my father instructed me to visit Qu Bo on his behalf if I passed by Yingdu. It's the little nephew who bothered you with a shy face today. "The sheep tongue is very thoughtful.

Qu Wu looked at the handsome young man in front of him, and couldn't help but feel full of feelings. My old friend's son is so old, but he has not yet married, he does not have his own separate mansion, and he is crammed into this house with his eldest brother and parents. People are more angry than people!

"I think your father is now full of children and grandchildren, where is he like me, or is he alone!" Qu Wu shook his head and sighed, and poured two cups of pear blossom white, one for the sheep tongue, and one for himself.

The sheep tongue didn't know what to say for a while.

The Qu Bo in front of him has been famous since he was a teenager, and the Qu family has set him a fiancée with a comparable door. It's a pity that the girl was too good-looking, and she was robbed by Chu Mugong, the king of Xianchu. Because of this hatred of taking his wife, he is full of talent, but he can't be reused.

It wasn't until the death of Chu Mugong two years ago and the succession of King Chu Zhuang that Qu Wu began to emerge in the court. Just looking at the appearance of King Chuzhuang, it may not really be reused for him. It's a shame that a good talent is wasted like this!

Originally, after Chu Mugong's affair passed, many people were willing to introduce him to a partner! It's a pity that he didn't accept any of them, and rejected them all. So he's still alone.

Fortunately, Qu Wu's loss was only revealed for a moment. He quickly adjusted his mind and began to talk to the sheep's tongue.

Two people who have the world in mind and want to do something about their careers can only discuss major national affairs together.

"What do you think of Chen Guo along the way?" Qu Wu asked softly as he poured another glass of wine and sipped it slowly.

"No, I can't. Yang Tongue also took a sip of wine, shook his head and said, "King Chen and Prince Chen are unconscious, and they are no different from the rumors, and they are not worth looking forward to." ”

"Oh, then you don't have any thoughts about Chen Guo?" Qu Wu asked. The Yangyu family has been running the two countries of Jin and Xun. Xun Guo has no queen, and seeing that the royal family is unsustainable, it is obvious how to plan for their future.

The Jin royal family also relies heavily on the sheep tongue family, and the sheep tongue family is not a self-contained family, and they must seek the world for the Jin royal family. The State of Chen borders the State of Jin, and now that the monarch of the State of Chen is deaf, it is a good time for them to make meritorious contributions!

When he heard that the Sheep Tongue had been captured in Chen Guo, Qu Wu felt that the Sheep Tongue family was afraid that he was going to do something to Chen Guo. However, as one of the most outstanding descendants of the Sheep Tongue family, he did not go to the Jin Kingdom after that incident, nor did he wait for an opportunity in the Chen Kingdom, which made Qu Wu a little incomprehensible.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the King of Chu was unwilling to reuse it for him and guarded against him many times, he would have helped Chu Guo take Chen Guo into his hands a long time ago. The sheep tongue family doesn't have the problem of zài itself, why didn't they do it?

Hearing this, Yang Yu took a big sip of wine depressedly, and said regretfully: "The little nephew was originally planned, but unfortunately when he arrived in Zhulin, after meeting the mother and son of the Xia family, everything changed. ”

"The mother and son of the Xia family, Uncle Xia Yu is long gone, although Xia Ji has Jiang Taibu's prophecy, but she is old, her reputation is not good, and her son is young, how can it affect your decision?" asked Qu Wu. He hadn't seen Xia Ji's mother and son at this time, and he only judged it by general common sense.

"The mother and son of the Xia family are by no means as simple as they seem. Mrs. Xia is a woman, and she actually saw my sheep's tongue family's plan clearly. The first time we met, I was poked by her. Xia Nan, the son of the Xia family, is a young talent, although he is not on the same path as us, but he will not be in the pool in the future. Achievements are not necessarily inferior to ours. ”

Smart people communicate with smart people, and if they can't be honest enough, it will be difficult to get along. This matter does not involve any important state secrets, and there is no reservation when it is talked about on the tongue of a sheep.

"You have been exposed, but what have you been coerced by her?" Qu Wu's face couldn't help but harden when he heard this.

It is not surprising that Yang Yudi's evaluation of Xia Nan is not surprising, but is Mrs. Xia so powerful? Generally speaking, if this kind of thing is exposed, it will definitely cost a lot to stabilize the other party. The reason why the sheep tongue didn't make a move this time is because of what coercion he was subjected to.

"No, Mrs. Xia didn't blackmail me into anything. She just made one request to me, that is, she couldn't be an official in the Jin Kingdom. I had to say yes, but I didn't understand it. I just think that Mrs. Xia's move is not to hurt me or anything, as if she is just trying to avoid something. Otherwise, I will secretly advise the Jin Kingdom in the body of cloth, and I will not violate my promise to her!"

The sheep tongue took another sip of pear blossom white, and his face flushed.

"Speaking of which, the biggest gain I gained from going to Xia Country this time was not that I got to King Chen, nor did I collect any valuable information about Chen Kingdom, but that I got to know them. Xia Nan and I are now close friends. Mrs. Xia is also my respected elder. ”

"I'd love to get to know them. Qu Wu said.

"They have come to Yingdu now and have made an appointment with me to meet tomorrow. If Qu Bo is really interested, he might as well see it. The little nephew thinks that you should not regret it. Sheep Tongue strongly recommended Qu Wu.

"Well, since you have been so praised, it must be worth seeing. "The level of the sheep's tongue, Qu Wu knows. To be praised by him like this, Qu Wu couldn't help but have some interest. There will be nothing to do tomorrow, and Qu Wu decides to meet them for a while.

The sun is shining, the grass grows and the warbler flies. Xia Ji wore a light purple dress, dressed as a woman from an ordinary rich family, inserted the hosta she just bought yesterday, put on the curtain of bean paste green, and went out with Xia Nan.

The house where the sheep tongue lives on Xinghua Street is on a corner. Walking to the door, as soon as Natsuhime turned around, he collided with another person behind him. Natsuhime's curtain is knocked off. She quickly grabbed the corner of the curtain and hooked it behind her ear again.

When Fu'er saw that someone had bumped into his wife, he was furious and was about to go crazy, when he saw the person's chic and handsome face, his anger suddenly disappeared, and he only said weakly: "Childe, you bumped into my wife." ”

"Madame"? How could it be "Madame"? Qu Wu was struck by lightning.

Qu Wu accidentally bumped into the beauty, although the other party was dressed as ordinary, but those eyes were crystal clear, as bright as stars, and immediately grabbed his gaze, making his heart flutter.

The moment the curtain slipped down, although the other party reacted quickly and pulled up, only revealing the snow-like skin on his neck, Qu Wu had already seen his face with sharp eyes.

Isn't this the woman he dreamed of countless times in his dreams? Qu Wu immediately wanted to identify himself with the other party, ask him which woman the other party was, and marry her home.

Since he was a child, he often had all kinds of strange dreams, and he had the same girl in his dreams. At the beginning, he couldn't see the other party's face clearly, and only thought that the other party was the girl he was married. After that girl was snatched away by the King of Xianchu, he was really sad for a while.

But he still had those dreams a lot, and he could see the girl's face clearly. That girl wasn't the one he was betrothed to beh. When he realized this, he was not sad. Later, his parents, relatives and friends introduced him to other girls, and some of them were very good, but he refused in the name of having his ex-fiancée in his heart.

What he wants to marry is just this girl in his dreams!

After those relatives and friends introduced him to a lot of useless things, they let it go, and gradually stopped helping him match. He also felt a lot quieter, but he was also secretly looking for the beauty in his heart.

The moment he saw the beautiful woman in front of him just now, Qu Wu's heart was ecstatic. God finally opened his eyes and gave him happiness. He instantly made up countless brain holes, and was thinking about how to talk to the beautiful woman, but the maid next to her called her "madam"!

She's married! How did she get married! Qu Wu felt that the world in front of him suddenly turned gray, and he was not angry at all.

It's just a breath of breath. Xia Nan, who was walking in front, noticed that the atmosphere behind him was not quite right, and when he looked back, he saw the person he was looking for a few days ago.

"Father!" Xia Nan reflexively shouted. It's just that after shouting it, he felt that it was inappropriate. However, they shouted and could not take it back.

He jumped to Xia Ji's side in three or two steps and said, "Mother, look, this is the person I told you. He was exactly like my father. ”

Xia Ji recognized Qu Wu at a glance when she saw Qu Wu just now. Just seeing his expression change, he didn't speak. Now that he saw that his son was excited and stupid again, he corrected him and said, "This is Qu Wu, the doctor of the Chu State, don't talk nonsense!"

Then he gently waved Qu Wu and said, "I'm sorry, let Mr. see you smile." ”

When Qu Wu was discouraged, he suddenly saw a handsome young man running over in front of him and calling him "father", and before he could finish accepting this psychological impact, he heard the beautiful woman in front of him introducing his identity. It turns out that she knows me! Xia Ji's voice was like a warbler crying in the hollow valley, touching the heartstrings, making his heart, which was almost dead just now, slowly come back to life.
