Chi Wan tried several times without success, so she simply gave up the struggle and obediently leaned into his arms.

Xie Yutang's heart was incredibly soft, one hand stroked Chi Wan's hair, and said gently, "What's wrong today, what's going on?" ”

When she saw Ji Wan just now, the expression on her face didn't seem to be fake. Xie Yutang couldn't help frowning, worried that Chi Wan was being bullied.

After being reminded by him, Chi Wan remembered the purpose of her coming, she raised her head from Xie Yutang's arms, and said worriedly, "Qin Haihao came to the princess's mansion today." ”

Xie Yutang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "What is he doing in the princess's mansion again?" "It is said that women know women best, but so do men. He had felt that Qin Haihao's eyes were wrong when he looked at Chi Wan before, but now when he heard this, his first worry was not that Chi Xia was discovered, but that Chi Wan would have too much contact with him.

"He told me that he was here to visit Chi Xia, but I always felt that it was not that simple."

Xie Yutang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he analyzed, "Qin Haihao and Chi Xia don't have any intersection, looking at what Qin Haihao usually does, he shouldn't like Chi Xia, so there is no reason to take the initiative to find Chi Xia." ”

"It's the same as I thought, but he's here, and I suspect that he might know that Chi Xia was locked up by us, and he wants to come to find out the truth."

"Heh, in what position? It's just a matter of self-control. Xie Yutang let out a chuckle, his words extremely disdainful.

Qin Haihao naturally doesn't have a position, but if this person is more serious, things will become very tricky.

Chi Wan sighed softly, and the sadness between her eyebrows became even stronger, "I see that he is already suspicious today, next time he comes over, I may not be able to stop him, if he knows about Chi Xia's affairs, I am afraid it will affect our plans." ”

Chi Xia will take revenge, he imprisoned her today, and when she goes out, she will definitely find a way to take revenge and come back, in short, it is still quite troublesome.

"Don't be afraid, it'll be fine, even if he finds out, he won't necessarily be able to expose us." Xie Yutang patted Chi Wan's hand comfortingly.

Seeing that the other party still looked worried, he thought for a while and said, "There is another way to solve the problem quickly." ”

Hearing this, Chi Wan's eyes lit up suddenly, and she stared at Xie Yutang tightly, "What's the solution?" ”

Chi Wan's face changed so quickly that Xie Yutang couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and he gently touched her hair, "We can speed up, and when the monarch decides to help us, we don't have to look at those people's faces anymore." ”

Chi Wan thought about it, it was really true, but this matter was not achieved overnight, and it was not easy to get the monarch to agree to send troops to attack Dongxuan.

The first thing to do is to gain the trust of the king.

"What are you going to do?"

Xie Yutang analyzed with her one by one, "Recently, many ministers in the court want to befriend me, this is the monarch testing me, I must not get too close to them for the time being, so as not to arouse the monarch's suspicion." ”

"That's right." Chi Wan bowed slightly, expressing her agreement.

Xie Yutang smiled slightly, his eyebrows were full of confidence, and his expression was flying, "If I guessed correctly, the monarch is also paying attention to my movements now." ”

"What do you mean?" Hearing this, Chi Wan couldn't help frowning, and there was a vague guess in her heart.

Xie Yutang was succinct, "There is no one available in the court, and the monarch is also very anxious. ”

In just one sentence, Chi Wan instantly understood, that's right, Shanglin Country has a scarcity of talents, and the appearance of Xie Yutang is also a very surprising thing for the monarch, this world has always been a treasure that is easy to obtain, and talents are rare. That's why Xie Yutang is so sure.

However, they calculated it, but they didn't calculate that Qin Haihao was already suspicious of them.

Since he found out that there was a problem with the identities of the two, he looked down on Xie Yutang even more, but wherever Xie Yutang appeared, he would definitely find fault.

At a court meeting, there was a small rebellion in the south, and the monarch asked Xie Yutang to lead the troops to quell the rebellion, and Qin Haihao immediately stood up against it, "Kill chickens with a knife? Besides, Vice General Xie has just returned from the front line, is it too tiring to go to quell the rebellion at this time? ”

When the monarch heard this, he also felt that there was some reason, so he changed a general.

After going down, Xie Yutang chatted with several ministers while walking, Qin Haihao deliberately came over and said with a smile, "What is Vice General Xie talking about?" ”

These days, as long as the monarch wants to entrust him with important tasks, Qin Haihao can find various reasons to cut off his beard. Forget it once or twice, if there are too many times, Xie Yutang naturally found out Qin Haihao's hostility towards him, although he didn't understand the reason, he didn't want to make a big deal with the other party. After all, this was a critical period for their plans, and if something went wrong, everything he had done would be in vain.

It's just that he doesn't want to worry about Qin Haihao, which doesn't mean that Qin Haihao is willing to let him go.

Hearing the other party's voice, Xie Yutang frowned quietly, "Let's talk casually." ”

"Qin Mou is in front of His Majesty today, and he said that he won't let you go to quell the rebellion, at this time, Vice General Xie may be hating me, right?" Qin Haihao took the initiative to mention what happened in the court just now, and his words were full of intriguing.

Xie Yutang shrugged his shoulders noncommittally, "No, Qin Gongzi thinks too much." After speaking, he was about to leave, but Qin Haihao seemed to be unable to understand his face, and followed behind Xie Yutang step by step, like a shadow, very annoying.

Xie Yutang had to stop and looked at the other party helplessly, "What else is wrong with Gongzi Qin?" ”

Qin Haihao rubbed his chin, looked at the other two ministers beside him, and smiled gently, "It's okay, I just heard that Vice President Xie is going to invite adults to dinner, I don't know if I can go and have a meal?" ”

Before, Xie Yutang heard Chi Wan say that Qin Haihao was very annoying about rubbing rice, and after really experiencing it, he found out that this was annoying, and he couldn't wait for someone to cut him with a sword.

The smile on his face remained unchanged, but his voice was obviously a little lighter, "Qin Gongzi can come if he wants to, can I still stop you?" ”

Qin Haihao pretended not to understand the meaning of his words, and followed cheekily.

As a result, this meal, no matter what they talked about, Qin Haihao had to interrupt, Xie Yutang's patience was exhausted, and he didn't pay much attention to Qin Haihao, but Qin Haihao didn't care at all.

The meal was suffocating, and after the banquet was over, Qin Haihao touched his stomach and walked away satisfied, leaving Xie Yutang alone, looking at his distant figure, his eyes became darker and darker.

After he went back, he told Chi Wan about it, and Chi Wan was also angry.

"Why is this man like this, why does he have to get along with us?"

Xie Yutang's eyes flashed thoughtfully, "He should have some suspicions." ”

Ji Wan bit her lip, only to feel that the uneasiness in her heart was getting more and more serious. At such a critical time, there can be no mistakes. Qin Haihao is very famous in Shanglin Kingdom, and even the monarch has praised him. If their plans were revealed through his mouth, they would be suspicious even if the king did not believe it at once.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, sooner or later they will grow into towering trees, and when the time comes, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"I guess he hasn't said it yet, probably because there's no evidence yet." Xie Yutang calmly speculated.

Chi Wan's face was solemn and he bowed slightly, "Although he doesn't know our purpose, he definitely wants to muddy the water, so that he can fish in troubled water." No matter what we do, it's only going to get harder. ”

"I'm afraid, he's already sent someone to keep an eye on us in the dark, as long as we make a move, he can immediately detect it."

The two looked at each other, and at the same time saw worry in each other's eyes.

While the two of them were worried, on the other side, Qin Haihao was also sitting opposite Sancai, half of Qin Haihao's face was hidden in the dark, and his expression was quite cold, which was very different from the usual image of being as warm as jade.

Sancai poured himself a cup of tea, took a big sip with satisfaction, and when he put down the teacup, he caught a glimpse of Qin Haihao's ugly face, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "It's not that I said you, what's going on?" As soon as I came here, I had a straight face. ”

Qin Haihao let out a long sigh, "That ugly monster is a big scourge, I'm thinking about how to deal with him." ”

Hearing this, Sancai sneered, "People didn't do anything, and they helped Lin Guo win a battle, what are you going to do with him?" ”

Qin Haihao glanced at him resentfully, and said depressedly, "You person, your political sense is too dull, he has a plan, naturally he has to make some achievements first, otherwise, what will he do to gain His Majesty's trust." ”

"I'm different from you, you people conspire every day, calculate and calculate, and you don't get tired of lying. Besides, even if he has a purpose, how much wind and waves can he afford to set off in Shanglin Country single-handedly? I think you're just too worried. Sancai leaned lazily on the back of the chair, and his words were full of disgust for Qin Haihao.

These words could not relax Qin Haihao's tense nerves. He pursed his lips and said nothing.

"Okay, come on, come on, play a few games with me, I haven't played chess for a long time." Sancai couldn't see his friend's appearance, and pulled someone to the cubicle.

With Sancai's interruption, Qin Haihao slightly soothed his brows, but his suspicion of Xie Yutang did not dissipate for a long time, and he seemed to have decided that Xie Yutang had a problem.

After a period of time, Qin Haihao's hostility towards Xie Yutang became more and more obvious, and even in the court, he directly confronted Xie Yutang. They also saw that Qin Haihao and Xie Yutang did not deal with each other.

Some people who couldn't get used to Xie Yutang's background came together with Qin Haihao. There are also some ministers who feel that Qin Haihao can't tolerate people and is ashamed of his reputation as a gentleman, in short, everyone has their own careful thoughts.
