Chapter 353: Reconciliation as Before
Xie Yutang tentatively approached, and seeing that Chi Wan did not object, he became a little bolder, getting closer and closer, and finally stopped three steps away.
"Wanwan, tell me, okay?"
Chi Wan couldn't help but think of the days when she was hiding in Tibet again, knowing that it had nothing to do with Xie Yutang, but she still felt aggrieved in her heart. She glared at the other party viciously, "It's all over, there's nothing to say." ”
"I want to hear it, tell me, okay?" Xie Yutang coaxed and said.
Chi Wan couldn't resist it, so she had to tell the story again.
Xie Yutang was terrified, he couldn't imagine what would have happened if Chi Wan hadn't met the Nine Princes.
Seeing that he was so guilty, Chi Wan was not so angry, and waved her hand lightly, "It's all over, I'm not doing well now." ”
"It's my fault, it's all my fault." Xie Yutang repeated this sentence over and over again, his tone full of self-reproach.
Chi Wan coughed lightly, and the unhappiness completely dissipated, but there was another knot in her heart that had not been untied.
Without waiting for Chi Wan to ask, Xie Yutang took the initiative to speak, as if he had made up his mind, "Wanwan, whatever you want to know, I'll tell you." ”
After such an incident, Xie Yutang finally knew that as long as the two of them were good, everything else could be put back.
Ji Wan looked at him in surprise, unable to believe that Xie Yutang would say this.
"Really?" She raised her eyebrows suspiciously.
Xie Yutang said softly, "Naturally it's true, I used to think that it was too simple, I just thought it was the best to hide from you, but I didn't expect you to suffer so much because of this, I figured it out, if you want to know, I'll tell you." ”
After saying something, Chi Wan's heart was like eating honey.
Under the light, her fair face looked even brighter, looking at Chi Wan like this, Xie Yutang suddenly felt a little dazed, and he couldn't wait to give her his life.
Chi Wan also looked at Xie Yutang, her eyes touched the scar, her heart twitched involuntarily, and she said uncomfortably, "Your injury ......"
"It's fine." Xie Yutang waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's just a small mouth, it doesn't hurt anymore." ”
Chi Wan felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, for her own indifference or seriousness, she forcibly looked away and asked, "Are you involved in the affairs of Chengguo?" ”
This is what she wants to know and is most concerned about.
Xie Yutang didn't hesitate for a moment, "It's me." ”
But he soon added, "I don't want to betray the country, Chengguo has been eyeing my country's border for many years, and this battle, even if I am not involved, is inevitable." ”
Chi Wan believed what Xie Yutang said, but she still couldn't let go, "Why did Chengguo choose this time, these news should have been handed over by you." ”
There was civil strife in the imperial court, but there was no big movement, and Chengguo naturally didn't know about it, unless, someone told them. This person, without thinking about it, is naturally Xie Yutang.
Xie Yutang was silent for a moment and admitted.
Chi Wan was angry, "Do you know how many people at the border have become displaced because of this battle, how many children have lost their fathers, and how many old people have lost their sons, and this could have been avoided, and when the time is ripe, it will not be too late for us to fight Chengguo." ”
"This is my inconsiderate thinking, but Wanwan, if the time is ripe, maybe the king of Chu will be gone, at that time the emperor will sit firmly in the country, what is the use of fighting again?"
Chi Wan thought about it, too, there was no matter of becoming a country dragging the emperor, but I was afraid that now, they had already met in the underworld.
Despite knowing this, Ji Wan still couldn't let go. She is different from Xie Yutang and King Chu, they are excellent strategists who know when to seize the opportunity, and she is just one of many ordinary people, who only thinks about the country and the people, and doesn't want to think about other things.
From this point of view, she is actually not qualified to accuse Xie Yutang.
Xie Yutang saw the struggle in her heart, and did not continue to say anything, but quietly waited for her to ease herself.
As soon as Chi Wan closed her eyes, she thought of those refugees who had left her homeland, her mind was in a mess, and she said hoarsely, "I don't understand these things, and I can't evaluate them, I just want to ask you, if Chengguo wins, what will you do at that time?" ”
You must know that at that time, there was no one available in the imperial court, Chengguo was menacing, and there were new weapons that they didn't know, and she learned from the battle report from the ninth prince that the imperial court had suffered a lot of losses.
Xie Yutang said confidently, "I won't lose." ”
Three words, full of domineering, as if he is still the generalissimo who looks down on the world, not a rebellious minister who has been imprisoned for nearly half a year.
Chi Wan glanced at him, and her heart was sour, "How can you be so sure, things on the battlefield are changing rapidly, even if you are a victorious general, you can't fully grasp all the situations." ”
"Chengguo's new weapon is indeed something I didn't expect, but other aspects have been in the hands of me and the King of Chu for many years, even if the court is weak, as long as the soldiers are used, they can stop the pace of Chengguo's attack."
Xie Yutang paused for a moment, and then said, "What's more, the person who led the troops is from our side." ”
Chi Wan was shocked again, she only knew that Xie Yutang might be involved, but she didn't think that the commander this time would be Xie Yutang, and he, since he could replace the commander with his own person, what else could not be done.
At this moment, Chi Wan realized that the Xie Yutang she knew before was actually just the tip of the iceberg, and the real Xie Yutang's ability was far beyond her imagination.
"How did you get the manager out?" Chi Wan couldn't figure this out, you know, the emperor's city was very deep, and when he was still the prince before, he had a lot of doubts. As far as she knows, the coach this time is a rookie general, and he is promoted very quickly, and he has no background.
Xie Yutang slowly explained, "Wanwan, do you remember? When Chengguo handed over the war letter, because there was no one available in the court, the emperor recruited capable people from everyone? ”
Chi Wan didn't know this very well, but she had a vague impression, and when Xie Yutang mentioned it, she suddenly realized, "General Zuo was inserted by you, and he is the person of the King of Chu?" ”
Xie Yutang smiled slightly, "He's not the only one." ”
Chi Wan remembered the way back and heard the discussion of those people, because General Zuo had made a great contribution this time, the emperor rewarded him lavishly, and directly appointed General Zuo as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, which can be said to be very honorable. The most important thing is that the position of Jinyi Wei is very important and has a lot of power.
So, will those ministers who suddenly have accidents have something to do with General Zuo?
The more Chi Wan thought about it, the colder her back became, and she asked in a dry voice, "Among those rewarded generals, there are still many people who are also yours, Xie Yutang, you have already started to act, right?" ”
At this time, Xie Yutang didn't answer her immediately, but just pulled the topic to the previous question, "Before the war, the court was worried about internal and external troubles, and many ministers were in their positions, but they did not seek their own politics, because of the interests involved, the emperor did not clean it up for a long time. The king of Chu took this opportunity to solve the problem of Chengguo first. ”
Chi Wan blurted out, "So, the next thing is internal trouble?" ”
Xie Yutang nodded slightly, agreeing with her words.
Chi Wan asked again, "Then what are you going to do?" ”
"Wanwan, it's getting late, it's time for you to rest." Xie Yutang avoided answering.
He turned the topic too bluntly, and he didn't have any skills at all, Ji Wan was a little angry, and he told her everything just now, but now he avoided talking about it.
Xie Yutang said softly, "I promise that I will not do anything to harm this country." ”
"Then why can't you tell me?" Ji Wan bit her lip, unwilling to compromise like this.
"When it's over here, I'll tell you what you want to know."
In fact, sometimes, it's not a good thing to know too much, Xie Yutang thinks about Chi Wan, so he doesn't want to tell her, but Chi Wan is worried about Xie Yutang.
The atmosphere between the two, which had finally eased down, was stagnant again.
Chi Wan sulked for a while, and gradually figured it out, it was not easy for the two to meet, they all spent sulking, it was not worth it, and the next time they met, I don't know when it will be.
Thinking of this, Chi Wan softened her tone and said awkwardly, "You...... That, you promised me, to take care of yourself and not put yourself in danger. ”
She said seriously, Xie Yutang listened seriously, and repeatedly promised, "Don't worry, I won't hurt myself." ”
Chi Wan relieved a little at this time.
"You too, before I come out, don't run around, just stay by the side of the Nine Princes." Xie Yutang solemnly explained.
The capital is about to change, but he can't be by Chi Wan's side, and he is also very worried.
Chi Wan pretended to be relaxed and said, "What can I do, and no one will want my life all the time, besides, I am free outside after all, and when I see that the situation is wrong, I can still run away." ”
I'm afraid that sometimes I can't even run.
Xie Yutang didn't say what he was worried about, but just admonished, "Be obedient, be tactful, protect yourself, and you. Remember to wear the leather mask at all times, and don't take it off casually. ”
Everyone knows that Chi Wan is dead, she will suddenly appear, the emperor will definitely be suspicious, and if she is arrested at that time, she will definitely end up badly.
Chi Wan pretended to be impatient and pouted, "I know, I know, you're too wordy." ”
Xie Yutang hooked the corners of his mouth, he didn't care about Chi Wan's impatience, on the contrary, this kind of Chi Wan made him feel fresh. He was so afraid that when Ji Wan faced him, there was no expression on his face, that was his nightmare.
"Okay, then I'll go first, remember, don't leave the Nine Princes."
Chi Wan frowned unhappily, "Why don't you leave the Ninth Prince, how can you be so sure that he is a good person, in case he is the person next to the emperor?" Isn't it self-defeating? ”
