Chapter 60: A Painful Pain
Xu Yourong said it as a matter of course, and this is still a rare euphemism for her, otherwise as far as she can see, Nie Suhyun will not leave Nie Suli one step, it will simply become Nie Suli's little tail, no matter where Nie Suli goes, Nie Suhyun will follow suit, and no matter at any time or place, Nie Suhyun will follow Nie Suli closely, until Xu Yourong has been very jealous of Nie Suli for a period of time.
ββ¦β¦ I was young. β
And in the end, in the face of Xu Yourong, a witness with ironclad evidence, Nie Suhyun held back such a sentence for a long time.
"Ah, yes, you were young."
Nie Suhyun's temperament is very cold, and it is difficult to see his awkward little expression at this time, and Xu Yourong is one of the few people who can see him with such an expression. So at this time, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Nie Liu, you really don't plan to tell me, what do you want to talk about with Cousin Xuan today?" β
But to make Nie Suhyun embarrassed, there must be a degree, otherwise it will be very troublesome to provoke this iceberg. And Xu Yourong, who knows Nie Suhyun so well, knows this very well, so he changed the topic in a timely manner.
From the beginning, Xu Yourong asked Nie Suhyun what he was doing, and when Nie Suhyun said that he had something to discuss with Qi Xuan, Xu Yourong didn't ask him what it was except for guessing that it wouldn't be a big deal, and he didn't plan to tell her. But to say that Xu Yourong is not curious about this matter, it is impossible.
ββ¦β¦β
But Xu Yourong asked directly, but he silenced Nie Suhun's direct question.
"What, it's something you can't tell me?"
And Xu Yourong was not annoyed by Nie Suhyun's silence. continued to laugh and said.
"It's something that is inconvenient to talk to others." But Xu Yourong's question this time, Nie Suhyun answered. But this answer seemed to her as good as his silence.
"Then you should be able to talk to me." But I want to make her back down. It can only be said that compared to Xu Yourong's understanding of Nie Suhyun, Nie Suhyun's understanding of Xu Yourong is much worse.
"Why?" And Nie Suhyun also looked at Xu Yourong, and asked with a slight raised eyebrow.
"Aren't you talking nonsense, Nie Liu, I'm no one else for you, I'm the one who knows you best." Xu Yourong swore and said, but Nie Suhyun was stunned when he heard this. Then he was speechless.
But Xu Yourong didn't give Nie Suhyun a chance to breathe, and said one after another: "So Nie Liu, it's better for you to tell me yourself." Otherwise, I can do it from my cousin or someone else, and I'll figure out everything about you anyway. β
These words are not Xu Yourong's alarmist words, for Nie Suhyun, she has perseverance that is incomprehensible to ordinary people, and extremely keen exploration ability. And as long as it's everything related to Nie Suhyun. Xu Yourong has always been able to figure it out. Leave no mistakes.
Therefore, after Xu Yourong finished speaking, Nie Suhyun really thought about it for a while, and then said to her: "I came to find Qi Shizi in the hope that he could persuade my eldest brother not to return to Liaodong." β
The Qi family of the Beiding Wangfu and the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion are not two families who have a good relationship, and at most they are just like others. On the surface, they maintain a friendly appearance with each other. Therefore, the people of these two families naturally do not have much friendship with each other. And brothers like Qi Xuan and Nie Suli and Nie Suhyun should have been like this, but the intention was unexpected, Qi Xuan and Nie Suli were very deed, although the two had not known each other for a long time, Nie Suli went to join the army and went to the front, but the friendship between the two did not stop there, but became more and more precious with each other's various experiences over the years.
And because of the unexpected friendship between Qi Xuan and Nie Suli, after Nie Suli left, Qi Xuan naturally paid attention to Nie Suxun openly and secretly, and also took care of him. Just like when Nie Suhyun wanted to worship Mr. Yi'an, if Qi Xuan hadn't secretly recommended Nie Suhyun in front of his mentor, it is estimated that his worship of Mr. Yi'an as his teacher would not have been so smooth.
But Qi Xuan's help to Nie Suhyun, with his personality, of course, will not let Nie Suhyun know, so in the past few years, although these two are both protΓ©gΓ©s of Mr. Yi'an, but they are not very familiar with each other, until recently, Nie Suli returned to Beijing and told Nie Suhyun about Qi Xuan's many times of helping Nie Suhyun over the years, Nie Suhyun thanked Qi Xuan, and then became familiar with Qi Xuan.
And because of this, after many things that were not very beneficial to the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion had happened recently, Nie Suhyun weighed it for a long time, and finally decided to come to ask Qi Xuan for help and help him persuade Nie Suli, hoping to dispel Nie Suli's plan to return to the battlefield and stay in the imperial capital for the time being.
"The battlefield is dangerous, the horse leather shroud, it's normal for you to hope that Brother Su Li won't return to Liaodong, but what's so inconvenient to say to me?"
But after Nie Suhyun told Xu Yourong about what he was going to discuss with Qi Xuan, Xu Yourong asked Nie Suhyun puzzled.
Yes, life and death on the frontier front line are just a matter of moments, Nie Suhyun doesn't want Nie Suli to return to Liaodong, this is the most normal thing, what's inconvenient to tell others? Xu Yourong looked at Nie Suhyun directly, and suddenly grinded his teeth, "Nie Liu, you don't just ignore me, so you prevaricated me just now." β
Xu Yourong sharpened her little teeth, but after Nie Suhyun just looked at her and frowned, Xu Yourong suddenly smiled again, "Okay, you mean that you didn't think about prevaricating me, right?" Then you don't want Brother Su Li to go back to Liaodong as a normal thing, is there anything hidden. β
"Hmm." Nie Suhyun looked away from Xu Yourong's smile that was fast and quicker, looked at the flowers and plants in the distance and said, "Since the hunting meeting, the Holy Lord has promoted me to the rank of Lieutenant of the Praetorian Guard, and I will stand beside the Holy Lord. β
The Praetorian Guard is the direct guard of each generation of emperors, and only the emperor can be mobilized, and the responsibility of the Praetorian Guard, of course, is to be responsible for the safety of the emperor and only the safety of the emperor, so the status of the Praetorian Guard is special, and it can be regarded as a close minister of the Son of Heaven. And the transfer and supply of officers above the rank of captain of each generation of the Praetorian Guard is also a place for everyone to fight.
But such a sought-after position within the Praetorian Guard. Nie Suhyun relied on the title of the main winner of a hunting conference, and he easily got it, and this was at the beginning. It makes many people jealous.
"yes, that's a good job."
And among those who are so jealous that their eyes are red, there will definitely be no Xu Yourong. Xu Yourong will only hope that Nie Suhyun will get better and better, and if he can go all the way to the top, it will be even better.
"Good errand? It's a good errand, at least it can make me suspicious and resentful of my own family in the Holy World. You can notify them as soon as possible. Nie Suhyun laughed self-deprecatingly.
Emperor Zhou Hui was dissatisfied with Nie Suli's suspicion!
"Is it still because of Brother Su Li's defeat last time?" Xu Yourong asked worriedly.
"Hmm." Nie Suhyun replied: "My eldest brother has fought on the front line over the years, and has made countless iron-blooded feats, but he was defeated once. The saint can be so dissatisfied with my eldest brother that he actually slanders my eldest brother, suspecting that he may be bribed by the enemy, otherwise I will be such a famous young god of war. How could this defeat be so ugly? Scold...... Ridiculous! β
The two armies faced each other on the battlefield. Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, don't say that sages and the like dare not say that they go to Haikou, they have never lost in their lives, let alone us ordinary people. But Emperor Zhou Hui actually vetoed all his military exploits based on Nie Suli's failure, which is really chilling, and it is no wonder that Nie Suyun mocked him like this.
"Nie Liu." But after Xu Yourong finished speaking, he didn't feel as angry as usual. Instead, he asked calmly: "No matter how much the Holy Lord promotes and trusts you now, the Holy Lord is suspicious and dissatisfied with these things about Brother Su Li." The Holy One shouldn't be so direct in front of you, so where did you know about this news? β
Xu Yourong's question, Nie Suhyun didn't expect it, so that after he was stunned for a while, he said honestly in her eyes that didn't hide her question: "It was Chief Manager Meng who brought me up." β¦β¦ Then, after learning that the Holy One had this idea, when several reports and briefings about the war came up, I carefully observed the Holy One for a long time, and I also found that as long as there was a bulletin with the name of my eldest brother, there would be a faint anger in the Holy Lord's expression. β
"So that's the case, then it's no wonder, but have you told Brother Su Li all this?" Xu Yourong suddenly realized.
"I told you." But Nie Suhyun still didn't reply very happily.
"You told Brother Su Li, but Brother Su Li still wants to go back to Liaodong, he is not afraid of the suspicion of the saint, because he feels that he has a clear conscience. That's why you thought about coming to Cousin Xuan, hoping that he could help you persuade Brother Su Li? Xu Yourong said.
"Hmm."
Nie Suhyun finally looked at Xu Yourong at this time, and he also felt that since he had told her everything from beginning to end, could she let him go. Because although this matter is not urgent, it is better to settle the dust as soon as possible, after all, his eldest brother doesn't think that Emperor Zhou Hui's suspicion is a big deal, but this is what Nie Suli thought wrong, for the courtiers, the emperor's suspicion is a more terrifying thing, so Nie Suhyun is still very worried at this time.
However, this time Nie Suhyun still expected Xu Yourong wrong, because after listening to him finish talking about everything, Xu Yourong still had no intention of letting him go, and he was still very determined to block in front of him without the slightest, looking down and thinking about something.
"Miss Xu." But Nie Suhyun couldn't help shouting at Xu Yourong.
"Ahh Xu Yourong replied casually, as if he was still thinking about something.
"Miss Xu, can you let me leave now?" But Xu Yourong was concentrating on thinking, but Nie Suhyun's patience was almost exhausted by her, so at this time, Nie Suhyun looked at Xu Yourong, and some cold light irritability flashed in her peach blossom eyes.
"How is it possible to let you go? Don't make a noise yet, let me think again. Nie Suhyun was already a little impatient, but Xu Yourong, who was thinking attentively, even revealed her sincerity by saying perfunctory words: Yes, she won't let him go. But she was indeed thinking about some serious things, although it was also mixed with the selfishness of wanting to stay with Nie Suhyun for a while.
"Nie Liu," but everything must be treated with Nie Suhyun, so in the afterglow of Xu Yourong's nymphomaniac, when she saw that his eyes were getting colder and colder, she said obediently: "Do you know the Huanchuan Zhai family?" β
Huan Chuan Zhai's family ...... "Of course I know. β
The head of the nine sides won the position of the chief soldier of Liaodong, and now it is in the hands of the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion. However, the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion originally took over the position of the chief soldier from the hands of Emperor Zhou Hui, which was stained with the blood stains of the children of the Huanchuan Zhai family for generations, so it should be said that Nie Suhyun did not know the Huanchuan Zhai family. It's a joke.
"Why did you suddenly mention the Huanchuan Zhai family?" Therefore, Nie Suhyun looked at Xu Yourong's eyes, and the chill that was so cold just now that it was chilling was completely dispersed, and on the contrary, he immediately asked Xu Yourong with a straight face.
But looking at Xu Yourong, who made Nie Suhyun immediately put away his anger because of his sentence "Do you know the Huanchuan Zhai family", he secretly laughed in his heart for a while and said: "Since you know the Huanchuan Zhai family, then you should also know the eldest son of the Zhai family's generation." Zhai Yu Zhai eldest son, right? β
"Yes." Nie Suhyun answered even faster this time.
Nie Suhyun knew Zhai Yu, and he not only knew all the deeds of Zhai Yu. He also understands it very well. Because Zhai Yu is the only one who is the same age as his eldest brother Nie Suli, but he is the first person to dominate on the battlefield earlier than Nie Suli; is also more worthy of the title of young god of war than his eldest brother Nie Suli. And Zhai Yu is also not just an empty name for Nie Suhyun. What's more. In the eyes of Nie Suhyun, who admires Nie Suli so much, he can dominate Nie Suli in everything in military affairs, and Nie Suli is also a figure who admires him very much, and Nie Suhyun of course can't avoid admiring him very much.
But admiration is admiration, for Zhai Yu, Nie Suhyun has never been able to see his side, not to mention almost all the sons and daughters of the Zhai family in Huanchuan back then. They have all returned to their ancestral lands; Just said that their Nie family took over the position of the Liaodong General Army, and Nie Suhyun felt that he was sorry for the Zhai family. He's a little embarrassed.
And it was such a complicated mood, until the last night of the hunting conference, when Nie Suhyun, the main winner of the hunting conference, saw the dark horse Zhai Yu who was killed halfway in that riding and archery exhibition competition for the first time, everything had not broken out. After all, at that time, Nie Suhyun was in a confused mood about Emperor Zhou Hui's reward of "being able to promise any wish". Secondly, when Zhai Yu and the second prince Xie Yan fought in the end, Nie Suhyun was on the high platform.
Therefore, when Nie Suhyun realized that this Zhai Yu was Bi Zhai Yu, it had already been a long time after the hunting conference.
But of course, if Nie Suhyun must see Zhai Yu, then when Zhai Yu is temporarily living in Xu's Mansion, Nie Suhyun will visit, although I don't know if Zhai Yu will see him, but at least Nie Suhyun still knows where he is. But the fact is that even later, Nie Suhyun found out about Zhai Yu's affairs in the Xu Mansion, Nie Suhyun never married and visited.
And the reason for this is easy to understand, first of all, for Zhai Yu, Nie Suhyun was extremely embarrassed because the Nie family took over the position of the Liaodong General Army, which had been guarded by the Zhai family for generations. Although this was Emperor Zhou Hui's idea at the beginning, it was impossible for the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion to disobey. But no matter who it is, as long as they understand the relationship between the Zhai family and the border of Liaodong, they will feel shameless about this result no matter what the reason.
This is a major reason why Nie Suhyun can't go directly to Xu Mansion to meet Zhai Yu; So in addition to this reason, is there any other reason why Nie Suhyun can't go to the Xu Mansion to visit Zhai Yu?
Of course there is, Xu Yourong!
In fact, sometimes, people don't know much about Xu Yourong and Nie Suhyun, after all, if the two of them have been involved over the years, it is only because of Xu Yourong's persistence, not knowing how to give up and being hot with his own shaved head, that they have developed into today's situation. At least in the relationship between these two people, it is more reasonable for Nie Suhyun to have the upper hand, and Xu Yourong has to respond to whatever he says.
What's weird is that the truth is just the opposite, among the two of them, Nie Suhyun is actually the character who is almost eaten by Xu Yourong all the time, no matter how she challenges his bottom line, anyway, in the end, everything will turn out according to her will. Just like today, although Nie Suhyun's peach blossom eyes bloomed after seeing Xu Youshan, in the end, it was Xu Yourong who could enjoy this unparalleled elegance, but it was only Xu Yourong.
Therefore, in the eyes of people who really know these two people, the fact that Nie Suhyun is the one who was chased by Xu Yourong and ran around without the power to fight back is clearly visible. Therefore, as long as there is a place where Xu Yourong is, no matter who Nie Suhyun sees in his heart, or how much he wants to do something, he will give up very decisively for the sake of having Xu Yourong there.
"Actually, judging from this phenomenon, Yourong, maybe you are the one with the most weight in Nie Liu's heart."
And it is also because of the strange way that Xu Yourong and Nie Suhyun get along, Xu Mingcheng once made fun of Xu Yourong like this, but this sentence sounds so moving, no matter who listens to it, they will only laugh and pass, including Xu Yourong himself.
Because they all know and see it clearly, Nie Suhyun doesn't like Xu Yourong, and he doesn't like him to express it so directly, and it's a little too hurtful to be direct.
However, even so, Xu Yourong was still able to laugh at it, and then continued to chase Nie Suhyun and fled. And I really don't know if Xu Yourong is venting her anger by this, who made Nie Suhyun sad like that.
It's just that most of this is Xu Youshan's own speculation, and they didn't dare to ask Xu Yourong for the right opinion, otherwise it would not be Nie Suhyun who might be vented their anger, but some three people who need to be killed......
"But Miss Xu, why did you mention Zhai Gongzi?"
But no matter why Xu Yourong and Nie Suhyun get along like this, and no matter what others talk about, anyway, these two people have long regarded this as a normal thing, so even if Xu Yourong feels a little bit like leading his nose at this time, Nie Suhyun still can't help but follow her words, after all, she will never fail to catch his vital point.
"Because it's necessary." At this time, Xu Yourong didn't sell it anymore, and said directly: "Brother Su Li has been on the battlefield for many years, and he gets along with his comrades who can trust him with life and death, and he doesn't need to play tricks and other shady behaviors at all, so if you want Brother Su Li to know how dangerous the suspicion of the saint is, it is very difficult." But what if there are bloody and close facts about the Huanchuan Zhai family and the eldest son of Zhai in front of Su Li's brother? β
ββ¦β¦β
Bloody and close facts? Yes, is there any bloody fact that is closer to them and more cruel than the fact that the Zhai family was forced back to their ancestral land Huanchuan by Emperor Zhou Huidi? Therefore, before Xu Yourong's words landed, Nie Suhyun understood what she meant.
"Nie Liu, what kind of expression do you have?"
But to understand clearly, this matter has something to do with the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion, and their Nie family is also related to that matter-"No, Miss Xu, you are right, my eldest brother has been fighting on the front line for many years, and he has long been away from the troubled waters of the imperial capital, and it is really difficult for him to understand these dark sides in the imperial capital. And the method you said may be the best, after all, when the saint asked my father to take over the Liaodong general army, my eldest brother also tried his best to dissuade my father, hoping that my father would not join the matter of the saint persecuting the Zhai family as a hero. β¦β¦ But at that time, the situation was complicated, and my father also had many considerations of his own, but if I used this matter to explain to my eldest brother how dangerous the suspicion and dissatisfaction of the saint was, it should be the most direct and effective. β
This is indeed the most direct and effective, tearing all the wounds such as unwillingness and resentment in the past are bloody and painful, so that people can hurt again, how can it not be the most direct and effective.
"Nie Liu." But looking at Nie Suyun at this time, how could Xu Yourong, who knew him best, not understand what he thought of, "Don't forget, the most important thing now is how to keep Brother Su Li behind, so as not to let the saint's dissatisfaction with Brother Su Li deepen." Otherwise, if Brother Su Li really returned to Liaodong, then the saint would be suspicious, and I was afraid that as long as someone with a heart provoked him a little, then the saint would be able to buckle a big hat for Brother Su Li. β
"You're right." And Nie Suhyun's loss didn't last long, and he was completely broken up by Xu Yourong's words, "Then I'll say goodbye, and I'll go back and talk to my eldest brother now." β¦β¦ Thank you very much for Miss Xu's slap today. β
Nie Suhyun was sincerely grateful to Xu Yourong, but Xu Yourong just puffed up his face and didn't speak.
And Nie Suhyun, who looked at Xu Yourong, had doubts in his eyes.
"Nie Suhyun."
"......" (To be continued......)
