283. Exploit and be exploited
Nangong Mo really took people out of the army that afternoon, but no one knew where he went. She is not a soldier in the army, and the generals in the army naturally can't care about her whereabouts. Even if someone like Chen Yu and others were curious, Wei Junmo said that there was something to deal with, and no one asked more. They all know the abilities and martial arts of the Lord of Star City, and if they are accompanied by a master, what danger can there be?
Zhu Chuyu sat in the tent and was a little distracted, and he didn't even notice that Xiao Qianwei came in. Xiao Qianwei frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "What are you thinking?" Zhu Chuyu came back to his senses, smiled reluctantly and shook his head: "It's nothing, why did the husband come back so early?" "It's not yet noon, what is Xiao Qianwei doing when he is not in the army and going back to his account at this time?
Xiao Qianwei said in a deep voice: "Shao Zhong can't hold on, and there is nothing to do if he doesn't come back?" ”
Hearing this, Zhu Chuyu's expression was also a little more dignified and solemn. frowned and said: "Now my father can't be a director, and the affairs of the military are entrusted to Wei Gongzi." It stands to reason that the husband and the eldest brother and the third brother should help from the side, why are they more leisurely than usual? "Because of the lessons of the previous two years, although he was in the army for a few days, Zhu Chuyu did not dare to rashly ask about the affairs of the army, so he only knew that the military affairs were now taken care of by Wei Gongzi.
In fact, with Zhu Chuyu's intelligence, it is not that he doesn't know what to do, a daughter-in-law who makes King Yan and Princess Yan like. It's a pity that her identity and her ambition don't allow her to do so. If she married not Xiao Qianwei but Xiao Qianchi, maybe it would be easier. But since she is married to Xiao Qianwei, she still wants to go further and higher, so she can only fight for it, because good things did not fall into her arms from the sky. Therefore, even if she knew that she would anger King Yan and the princess, she still had to do it. It's just that I slowly explored and understood the bottom line of King Yan and Princess Yan.
Xiao Qianwei's face was also slightly gloomy, and after King Yan was a little better a few days ago, he called the three brothers to the bed and reprimanded them fiercely. He also ordered them to take care of their own soldiers and horses and fight wars in the future, and not to meddle in the affairs of the army. Even the most troublesome of the generals who supported him were severely punished. Xiao Qianwei's face was also very unsightly, fortunately, his father reprimanded them together with the three brothers, otherwise, I am afraid that he would not be able to raise his face even more. In this way, the affairs in the army naturally have nothing to do with them, and the military positions of the three of them in the army are not high, and naturally there are not many affairs, so they are really idle every day except for fighting.
It's not that there is nothing else to do after being idle, Xiao Qianjiong is either pestering Chen Yu to ask for advice on the art of war or pestering the masters around Nangong Mo to ask for martial arts. Xiao Qianchi always held a bunch of folds of previous dossiers and ran to Wei Junmo to ask for opinions or his own incomprehension. Every time I can come out satisfied, my life is enough. It's just that Xiao Qianwei is not so happy, he doesn't have the same dedication and pursuit of martial arts as Xiao Qianjiong, nor does he have Xiao Qianchi's incomprehension and indecisive things. What's more, he felt that his relationship with Wei Junmo was a little awkward, so why was he embarrassed to move forward? So, for a while, he became the most confused of the three brothers.
Just looking at Xiao Qianwei's face, Zhu Chuyu also knew that he was not very happy. After thinking about it, he said softly: "If there is something about the husband, would you like to talk to the concubine?" Although the concubine is not as smart as the county lord of Xingcheng, or can she also decompose one or two for her husband? Xiao Qianwei's expression eased slightly, sighed lightly, and reached out to cover Zhu Chuyu's hand, "You are very good." ”
Zhu Chuyu lowered his eyes, and his smile was a little more shy and joyful, "Since I have been married to my husband for a period of time, I naturally have to think about my husband." ”
After listening to Xiao Qianwei's events these days, Zhu Chuyu had to sigh helplessly. Seeing her like this, Xiao Qianwei frowned and said, "But what's wrong?" Zhu Chuyu shook his head and said, "Since the husband knows that his father trusts Wei Gongzi very much, why do he still have trouble with him?" ”
Xiao Qianwei frowned, also a little annoyed, "I don't want to make trouble with them." "It's just that this cousin will always spoil his things from time to time, and in the end, he can't fight against each other. For example, in the fight between him and his eldest brother, no matter which of them had never thought of winning over or suppressing his cousin from the beginning, didn't his cousin intervene himself? And... Thinking of his father's love for his cousin, Xiao Qianwei couldn't help but admit that he felt a little uncomfortable. In the eyes of his father, his son is not only inferior to his cousin, but also inferior to his cousin-in-law, right?
Zhu Chuyu thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Don't blame the husband, the concubine may be able to see more clearly if she is farther away." Wei Gongzi... I don't think it means anything to you. It's just that the battle between you and the prince has really affected the morale of the army. The reason why Wei Gongzi came out to warn you should be this reason. After all, now is the most critical time of the war, and the siege of Yingchuan that day, if there is no Wei Gongzi, who happens to have hundreds of thousands of troops in Chenzhou, I am afraid... The western front of the Youzhou Army will really be completely defeated, and after a long time, my father's side is afraid that it will be difficult to support it alone. ”
was so clearly pointed out by his wife that he made a mistake, Xiao Qianwei's face was a little sad, but he didn't have a seizure. After pondering for a long time, he nodded and said, "You are right, it was indeed me who was too much with my eldest brother before." ”
Zhu Chuyu nodded and said with a smile: "Actually, the husband doesn't have to worry about Wei Gongzi at all. As Wei Gongzi, he will definitely not favor anyone in this kind of matter. As long as the father is in one day, no position is the best position for Wei Gongzi. Even if my father is in the future... Wei Gongzi has hundreds of thousands of troops and is in a high position, as long as he supports the people chosen by his father, he can be invincible, and no one dares to shake him lightly. ”
Xiao Qianwei took a deep breath, nodded and said, "I know, I was too anxious before." I'll be mindful of repairing the relationship with my cousin and sister-in-law. ”
Zhu Chuyu also breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and smiled: "That's good, in fact, I only figured it out in the past two years." Maybe it's far away, but you can really see it more clearly. The most important thing for the husband now is not the military power or the military heart, but to work hard to make his father happy. As for everything else, it's all given to the husband by the father, isn't it? ”
"You're right." Xiao Qianwei nodded, looked at Zhu Chuyu and said softly: "If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for." ”
Zhu Chuyu smiled lightly, "Being able to marry her husband is a blessing for three lives as a concubine." ”
Seeing Xiao Qianwei go out, the smile on Zhu Chuyu's lips gradually faded, and he sighed faintly.
"County Lord." The girl Zhu'er walked in with a plate of snacks, "The county lord didn't have much food in the morning, let's have some snacks." "This dim sum is naturally not as delicate as in King Yan's mansion, but it is good to be able to eat a snack in the army. Zhu Chuyu nodded, picked up a piece of dim sum and took a bite of it delicately, while asking, "Do you know, where did the county lord of Xingcheng go?" ”
Zhu'er shook her head and sighed: "I follow the orders of the county lord, the people and slaves waiting around the county lord of Wei Gongzi and the county lord of Xingcheng dare not approach. As for the people on the side, most of them didn't know anything. The slave was afraid that the action would be too big to arouse suspicion, and she did not dare to be too blatant. ”
Zhu Chuyu sighed, "I don't blame you, in a place like this in the army, we have no one to use." ”
"That's... County Lord, what should we do if we can't find out? The one... Over there..."Zhu'er has followed Zhu Chuyu for many years, and she can be regarded as a henchman among her henchmen, so she naturally knows a lot of things. This time in the army, they didn't want to provoke the county lord of Xingcheng and Wei Gongzi at all, but they didn't want to find something but something to find them. The people of the Water Pavilion couldn't find out the whereabouts of the county lord of Star City, so they hit them with their ideas.
"Gong Yuchen!" Reaching out and touching Hua Tian on his cheek, Zhu Chuyu secretly gritted his teeth. For that man, she hated and feared at the same time. I wish he would die well, but I was afraid that I would never see him again in this life.
After lowering his eyes and thinking for a moment, Zhu Chuyu said lightly: "Reveal the news to Gong Xiaodie, just say... I don't know what the Lord of Star City is doing, so it's a little more vague. She was angry with Wei Gongzi just now, and she would definitely not be able to help but retaliate back. ”
Zhu'er hesitated a little and said, "That palace concubine seems to be... That person, let's use her, won't..."
Zhu Chuyu snorted lightly, gritted his teeth and said, "I can't find out, what else can I do if I don't use Gong Xiaodie?" Could he still kill me! He is not the only one who has a handle in his hand, forcing the county lord to ......" Zhu Chuyu swallowed back hatefully when he saw the words behind. Zhu'er saw that she was very angry, and hurriedly comforted: "Miss, don't be angry. The slave and maid will go back and arrange it. ”
Zhu Chuyu picked up the tea in front of him and slowly squinted, forcing the resentment in his heart back. He closed his eyes and said, "I'm not angry, I want to see who we have the last laugh!" Big deal, let's die together! ”
Zhu'er was startled, "Miss, I can't say that." At the same time, he was secretly puzzled in his heart, the young lady has always acted in moderation, why did she grit her teeth so much when she mentioned it, the grudge against the county lord of Star City was nothing compared to this resentment and anger.
How did she know that in Zhu Chuyu's heart, Nangong Mo used to be her opponent, and later she was just a woman who made her feel envious and jealous. The many conflicts are actually just a matter of position and interests, as well as a little jealousy and injustice. But Gong Yuchen is definitely beyond the existence of the disaster star in Zhu Chuyu's heart. Since she met Gong Yuchen, she has not encountered a good thing, and now she has to be controlled by others. This made Zhu Chuyu, who had always felt that he was extremely smart and liked to master a qiē, feel very uncomfortable, but he was afraid of the power and means of Gong Yuchen and had to endure it.
Not to mention the depression in Zhu Chuyu's heart and his resentment towards Gong Yuchen, in the tent on the other side, Gong Xiaodie's mood was not good. Compared with Zhu Chuyu and the county lord of Yongcheng, who each only brought a personal girl to the army, Zhu Chuyu had a girl by his side. It's just that there is a baby boy to take care of, but no one said anything.
Gong Xiaodie waved her hand a little excitedly, let Xiao Qianshuo hug her down, and sat on the side and tore her handkerchief sullenly. The ordinary-looking girl standing beside her had long been accustomed to her appearance, and she was not surprised, but asked lightly, "Miss, what's the matter?" ”
Gong Xiaodie couldn't help but pat the table, "Didn't you hear what Wei Gongzi said about me yesterday?" ”
The girl was speechless, she really didn't hear it. Because yesterday she didn't follow Wei Gongzi into the tent at all. She is a person from the Water Pavilion, and she is also a person from the Water Pavilion who is not good at martial arts, she ran to Wei Gongzi and the Lord of Star City to show her eyes, who knows if she will be noticed and suspected of being suspicious? But remembering that Gong Xiaodie came back with red eyes yesterday, I guessed that she must have been angry.
"Miss is angry, didn't the master say it, let's not provoke Wei Gongzi and the county lord of Xingcheng. The young lady now has the blood of His Royal Highness King Yan, and has the favor of His Royal Highness King Yan. The three sons of Yanwangfu can't see that they can make a weapon, and the future will be fine. The girl whispered.
Gong Xiaodie snorted lightly, gritted her teeth and said, "Do I have to endure it like this?" Since the prince is good to me, why doesn't he want to drive away Wei Junmo and Nangong Mo for me? These two people are just too much of an eyesore. The girl couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth, looking at Gong Xiaodie's eyes strangely and speechless. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that His Royal Highness King Yan values and trusts Wei Gongzi, and even the three princes can't compare, how can they drive away Wei Gongzi and the Star City County Lord for you? Who do you think you are?
For more than three years, the girl has complained about her own pavilion master's vision countless times in her heart. In addition to being the sister of the pavilion master, what qualifications does Gong Xiaodie have to perform this kind of task. It's much smarter than her to send a female servant from the Water Pavilion, right? There is no need to send yourself to follow and fill in for her everywhere. If she hadn't been there in the past two years, Gong Xiaodie wouldn't have known how many times she had been killed by those women in the backyard of King Yan's mansion. Don't think that a woman without children and pampering is not lethal. As for looks... Her face wasn't real anyway. She silently decided in her heart, if she didn't mention it the next time she went back to meet the pavilion master, could she find someone to replace Gong Xiaodie? Anyway, the bloodline of King Yan born to Gong Xiaodie, which the pavilion master wants, has already been born, isn't it?
"Miss, now is not the time to ask for trouble. When His Royal Highness King Yan achieves great things, you will be a royal concubine. What can't be done then? Knowing Gong Xiaodie's temper, the girl at least persuaded softly.
Gong Xiaodie bit the corner of her lip and didn't speak for a long time. But when the people behind her thought she was about to give up, she suddenly asked: "I heard that Nangong Mo left the army yesterday and didn't return all night?" ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "That's true." ”
Gong Xiaodie said: "As a woman, she doesn't return to the camp at night. I don't even know where I went. Since the prince loves Wei Gongzi so much, he must not be happy with such an unruly nephew and daughter-in-law, right? ”
"This..."The girl hesitated a little, she was also a little suspicious of the whereabouts of the county lord of Star City, but she did not receive an order from the cabinet to find out about the matter. Whether the pavilion lord didn't care about this at all or didn't want them to get involved in this matter, since he didn't give the order, it had nothing to do with them what the star city county lord did.
"Perhaps, something, right?" The girl said, "The county lord of Xingcheng is not a general in the army, so it has nothing to do with us. Why should the young lady bother with her? ”
Gong Xiaodie snorted lightly: "It's not a general in the army, maybe it's a spy?" Don't forget that the current head of the imperial court is the father of the county lord of Star City. ”
Seeing her walking out, the girl hurriedly asked, "Miss, where are you going?" ”
Gong Xiaodie looked back and smiled, "I'll go talk to the prince." ”
The woman behind her was so angry that she stomped her feet: Ancestor, have you forgotten that you are the real spy.
Gong Xiaodie really forgot, even if she remembered, she wouldn't care. She was persecuted by Gong Yuchen, and she didn't do anything to be sorry for King Yan. The prince is so good to her, they also have a son. Even if the prince knew about it in the end, he wouldn't blame her.
When I walked into the battle of King Yan, I saw Lord Yongcheng sitting on the edge of the bed feeding King Yan medicine. Not far away, Wei Junmo sat on the side with an indifferent expression and said something. While drinking medicine, King Yan also said a few words from time to time. Seeing her come in, Wen Sheng asked, "Why are you here?" What about Shuo'er? ”
Gong Xiaodie smiled: "Shuo'er is asleep, I'll come to see the prince." The prince looks much better today. ”
As he spoke, he stepped forward to take the medicine bowl from the hand of the county lord of Yongcheng. Lord Yongcheng glanced at her, and without saying anything, he directly handed her the medicine bowl and stood up. Gong Xiaodie took over from the county lord of Yongcheng, gently and meticulously fed the medicine to King Yan, and glanced at Wei Junmo, "Gongzi Wei is also here." ”
Wei Junmo was silent, just glanced at her lightly, as if he hadn't heard her words, and continued to talk about the affairs of the army.
Gong Xiaodie is angry, no matter what, she is a beautiful woman. And no matter what kind of woman she is, the most unbearable thing is to be ignored.
"Wei Gongzi, why don't you ignore me? But what did I say wrong? "Gong Xiaodie said quietly.
King Yan raised his eyebrows, looked at the two of them and didn't say anything, very little on the sidelines. He was more curious about how his nephew's indifferent personality had a grudge against Gong Xiaodie.
Wei Gongzi said indifferently: "The palace concubine is my uncle's person, and it is better to avoid the suspicion of melon fields and plums." ”
"Poof! cough cough ......" His Royal Highness King Yan couldn't help coughing, and the wound was faintly painful, and he couldn't help glaring at Wei Gongzi fiercely. What is a melon field plum? Bastard thing! If you say that, you still say it in front of him. Isn't this clear that Gong Xiaodie is not worried about hooking up with him in the room?
"You... You..."Gong Xiaodie obviously didn't expect Wei Junmo to say such a thing, and suddenly turned red with anger. Only the county lord of Yongcheng was in a good mood, standing on the side, his lips couldn't help but curl, and he secretly gave Wei Junmo a thumbs up. Big cousin is amazing!
Gong Xiaodie gritted her teeth, remembering the purpose of her coming here, she finally didn't lose her temper. Instead, he turned his anger into a smile, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen the Lord of Star City today." ”
King Yan raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "That's right, where did Flawless go?" "In the past, Nangong Mo would come over every day to help him diagnose his pulse, but today at this time, there is no one to be seen.
The county lord of Yongcheng was a little displeased, "Concubine Gong, you know that your cousin-in-law has something to do, and now you are knowingly asking in front of your father, what do you mean?" ”
Gong Xiaodie blinked innocently, "What, I knew that the county lord went out yesterday, but... I don't know if she didn't come back last night. ”
King Yan was quite interested, "Flawless has something to do, where did you go?" Yundu? ”
Wei Junmo shook his head and didn't speak, and King Yan frowned and said, "Where did you go?" ”
Gong Xiaodie pursed her lips and smiled: "It shouldn't be that Gongzi Wei quarreled with the county lord, even Gongzi Wei doesn't know where the county lord went, right?" This is not good, as a wife, how can the county lord not return all night. It's also a joke to say it. ”
Wei Junmo glanced at her coldly and said, "Where Flawless goes, it has nothing to do with the side concubine." ”
Gong Xiaodie couldn't help but lean back, and said with some grievances: "I'm also worried about the safety of the county lord." Now that there are wars everywhere, what if something happens to the county lord? ”
King Yan raised his hand with a little headache and rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Okay, Jun'er, where did Flawless go?" ”
Wei Junmo frowned, and said with some displeasure: "Flawless has something to do and will go out for a few days, and I will come back soon." ”
King Yan glared at her and said, "This king is asking you, what is he going to do!" It's all my own people here, what can't I say? Even if you do quarrel, this king will not laugh at you. Wei Junmo was silent for a while, and then said lightly: "Flawless go and help me pick up someone." ”
"Huh? Who? King Yan was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised.
Wei Junmo squinted his eyes and said: "A very important person who is related to the success or failure of this battle, I should have gone in person, but I can't leave now, so I can only go flawlessly." ”
"Since it's so important..."King Yan muttered, "How many people did Wufang bring with him, do you want to send someone to answer it?" ”
Wei Junmo shook his head, "No need, there are too many people, but it will make people suspicious." Cangming Mountain is not far away, and Flawless will definitely come back in three or five days. ”
King Yan raised his eyebrows, "Oh, that's good." This king is a little curious, what kind of person can be related to the success or failure of this battle. ”
"When the time comes, my uncle will naturally know." Wei Junmo said indifferently.
When Gong Xiaodie and Lord Yongcheng went out, there was a moment of silence in the big tent. After a while, King Yan asked, "Do you think... Will Gong Yuchen be fooled this time? ”
Wei Junmo was slightly hooked, and said indifferently: "If he is still not fooled this time, I think Uncle you don't have to think about finding out Gong Yuchen first." You're not going to catch him. Moreover, if you can't kill your uncle this time, he shouldn't be able to kill you in a short time. After all, it's a waste not to use such a good card as Gong Xiaodie. ”
King Yan squinted, stared at Wei Junmo and said, "Do you know how the cards under him will be played?" ”
Wei Gongzi said casually: "Little cousin looks very good. In fact... Maybe Gong Yuchen won't be an obstacle to your uncle, but maybe it will be your help. ”
King Yan frowned, "You said before that Gong Yuchen has a relationship with the Northern Yuan people. "As long as he thought of colluding with the Northern Yuan people, King Yan felt that he especially wanted to kill Gong Yuchen, and it was not equal for a moment. He didn't need such help at all, and if he thought about it further... It's disgusting!
"This king doesn't care what method you use! Immediately, get Gong Yuchen out for me immediately! Kill! His Royal Highness King Yan said viciously.
Wei Gongzi shrugged disappreciably, "I guess Gong Yuchen thinks the same way." ”
