Xiao Feng received the good news and summoned Yin Shaohan and Chai Yu to the Jing Kite Pavilion.

"Qi Zhan sent a letter of thanks, mentioning our 5,000 soldiers in Nisang, and saying that they would all return soon."

Chai Yu frowned on the side and said, "Dad, Qi Zhan doesn't want to let them come back." ”

Xiao Feng nodded and said: "Yes, I have always only had strong generals, no weak soldiers, a thousand halberds in a battle, Qi Zhan naturally saw that I have a good way of training troops, how can a strong general be willing to let go when he sees a strong soldier." However, his letter revealed that he wanted to keep my soldiers, which shows that this Qizhan has a lot of ambition. ”

"Qi Zhan's ambition is indeed not small, he can sit on the leader of the fensang, and he can subdue the hearts of the people above and below the fensang, it can be seen that this person is extremely difficult to deal with, brave and strategic. But" Yin Shaohan paced a few steps, and suddenly laughed, "Dad, don't worry, those 5,000 soldiers were personally selected by me, all of them have been in the Wulu for many years, and they have established a family, and they are soldiers who are loyal to the Wulu. Because I knew that Qi Zhan had this intention, I told them before they set off that if Qi Zhan wanted them to stay in Fennisang, they would stay in Fennisang, as the eyes and ears of the Wulu in Fennisang, for future use, and as for their family members in Wusang, I also promised them that I would treat them very well" The last sentence was Yin Shaohan's reassurance to the 5,000 soldiers who went to Fennisang, and it was also a warning, if the 5,000 soldiers switched to Fennisang, then their families would pay the price for their betrayal!

"Big brother is really clever, Chai Yu admires, admires!" Chai Yu bowed to Yin Shaohan, his mouth full of praise. When Xiao Feng heard this, he was a little surprised, he didn't expect that "Xiao Mengling" would be able to anticipate the opportunity and prepare these early, so he sighed: "My son is a hundred times better than me, and my father can rest assured that he will hand over the luxury to you." ”

Yin Shaohan's eyes flashed, and a smile flashed across the corners of his mouth, while Chai Yu saw it in his eyes and remained silent.

Leaving the Chief's Mansion and returning to Zhiyu Garden, Chai Yu suddenly put away his former gentleness and humility, and his expression became gloomy and unpredictable. Not long after returning to the room, Chai Yu heard the sound of Xiao Zhiling approaching, Xiao Zhiling went to the Temple of Eternal Life today to pray for incense, just before the cold wind blocked the road, blowing away the hair on her forehead, as soon as she pushed the door, Chai Yu suddenly hugged her into her arms, Chai Yu smiled, saw her hair messy, so she hurriedly reached out to smooth it, Xiao Zhiling's long hair was coiled, her face was crimson, she slowly took off her velvet jacket, revealing an emerald green Luo gauze skirt inside, and the cuffs of the skirt were embellished with colored petals. Since marrying Chai Yu, her face has been much less aggressive and more soft and warm, which was unthinkable to Xiao Zhiling in the past.

She saw Chai Yu looking at her with a smile, so she turned to take Chai Yu's hand and asked, "Husband Jun came back from Jing Kite Pavilion, but what's the big deal?" ”

Chai Yu told Xiao Zhiling everything about today's situation in the palace, and after Xiao Zhiling heard it, she really looked nervous, and said, "Dad really wants to hand over the luxury to Xiao Mengling." What are your husband's plans? ”

Chai Yu told Xiao Zhiling everything about today's situation in the palace, and after Xiao Zhiling heard it, she really looked nervous, and said, "Dad really wants to hand over the luxury to Xiao Mengling." What are your husband's plans? ”

Chai Yu smiled calmly and said gently: "I just want to be able to live with you in Wulu, as for anything else, I don't want anything." ”

"Husband, I know that you don't want to fight in your heart. If it were the past, I wouldn't have to remind you of this, but my brother Xiao Mengling is already different from before, and your lack of fighting and seeking may not only leave us with nothing, but also put our lives at risk! ”

After hearing this, Chai Yu was shocked, grabbed Xiao Zhiling's hand, and wondered: "Why did the eldest brother let us lose our lives?" ”

Xiao Zhiling sighed, walked to the back room, and said helplessly: "Husband, you haven't been here for a long time, so you don't know anything. My elder brother Xiao Mengling used to just have fun, and he was lazy and weak, so he didn't care about the affairs of the clan at all. So Daddy must have consulted with me about something, and it has been the case for so many years. But since two months ago, when my brother came back, he seemed to be a different person, he was very resourceful and courageous, everything was different from before, and his father's expression gradually changed when he looked at him, and now you can see that his father wanted to give him his luxury. ”

"If it's really like what Zhi Ling said, then even if it is handed over to the eldest brother, we can be at ease, what is Zhi Ling worried about?"

"Husband, your mind is pure, of course you can't think of it. So how can Xiao Mengling let us be at ease? What he has shown in the past two months is to compete with me, for so many years, I have participated in the affairs of the clan, and my father treats me as a son, even if I have no merit, I have hard work, why can he replace me as soon as he comes? Xiao Zhiling said, her voice became a little excited, she saw Chai Yu show a trace of surprise, hurriedly regained her calm, and said: "Of course, even if my brother replaces me, I have nothing to say, but I have been involved in the affairs of the clan for a long time, and I have been fighting against him for a long time in the past, and now he is not giving in everywhere, with his current city government and thoughts, I am afraid that on the day when he really grasps the power of Wu Luxury, he will not let us go!" Husband, you understand my hard work! ”

"Zhiling, you mean, you want me to fight him?" Chai Yu lowered his head and was silent for a while, and then said, "You're still unwilling, aren't you?" ”

Xiao Zhiling looked at Chai Yu for a long time and nodded.

"Zhiling, I can't fight him, but I will at least keep the two of us comfortable for the rest of our lives, otherwise, we can leave the Central Plains and go to the north."

"No! If you want me to get out of here and be a bad man, I won't agree to anything. Husband, your intelligence is not inferior to Xiao Mengling, why don't you dare to give it a try? ”

"But he is the eldest son of the Chief's Mansion, and this extravagant power will fall on him sooner or later, unless there is no such person as him, we can be logical" Without him, it is to make him disappear, that is, after Chai Yu finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Zhiling and looked at him straightly, motionless, and suddenly understood what Xiao Zhiling meant, Chai Yu couldn't believe that Xiao Zhiling really had that idea, so he asked tentatively with difficulty: "You originally wanted to"

Xiao Zhiling immediately reached out to cover Chai Yu's mouth, and only replied with the word "right".

Chai Yu's whole body suddenly relaxed, he never knew that his wife was thinking like this, he sat down in a daze, and was still immersed in the moment when Xiao Zhiling opened his mouth and said "yes".

Xiao Zhiling put both hands on Chai Yu's shoulders, knelt behind him, and whispered: "Husband, it's not that I'm unkind, but I can't watch the extravagant power fall, if you and I are together, and Husband tries his best to help me, then it can be regarded as repaying Zhiling's wish." ”

"Zhiling." After a long time, Chai Yu finally spoke, "Actually, you like me to be your husband, is it because of that man named Luo Chen?" ”

Xiao Zhiling made a "bang" in her heart, and her body behind Chai Yu froze for a moment, her throat seemed to be choked by something, and she didn't know how to answer.

"Zhiling, sometimes you look at me like my father sometimes looks at me, you are not looking at me, but at another person, my father's satisfaction with me, his affirmation of me, I understand in my heart that a large part of the reason is just because I look like him, that Luo Shaoxia. But what I fear most is your joy and love for me, and a large part of the reason is because of him." )
