------------------------------------------------------------
Xiao Heng heard that Yinxiang was really coming, he was overjoyed, and suddenly felt that his charm was really extraordinary, and was about to go over to open the door, and then he felt that his clothes were a little messy, and he was busy tidying up, and then put on the most charming smile, walked to the door, pulled the latch, opened the door, and saw a subordinate standing in front of the door, next to him, a slender and handsome girl was lowering her head, holding a hat in her hand, looking extremely nervous and shy.
Xiao Heng made a look, and the subordinate would retreat, Xiao Heng showed excitement at this time, and said softly: "Yinxiang, you make me happy too much, you ...... Are you really here? Since I came back, I have been thinking about you, and I have been waiting for you, and if you don't come, I would rather be drunk, so that I don't have to suffer from longing. ”
Yinxiang saw the empty wine jug on the table, a trace of gratitude crossed her eyes, she lowered her head, her face was crimson, and said softly: "Slave maid...... The slave didn't want to come, but ......! But he didn't go on.
Xiao Heng had already closed the door, then grabbed Yinxiang's hand and said softly: "I know, I know." Yinxiang, you can come here, I'm ...... I'm so happy! ”
"Childe, don't do this." Yinxiang hurriedly broke free of Xiao Heng's hand and said nervously: "I ran out of thin air, and I have to go back...... If someone else knows that the slave and maid ran out in the middle of the night, the lady ...... Madame will definitely punish the slave and maid ......! ”
"Come, sit down and talk." Xiao Heng enthusiastically brought Yinxiang to the table and sat down, and said softly: "Yinxiang, in front of me, don't call yourself a slave, you call me Brother Xiao, I'll teach you Yinxiang, what do you say?" ”
Yinxiang didn't dare to look up, but nodded shyly.
"Are you hungry?" Xiao Heng said gently: "I'll go get some food, by the way, will you drink?" How many drinks shall I have with you? ”
"No...... No! Yinxiang finally raised her head slightly and looked at Xiao Heng, "Childe, you don't have to be like this, I'm ...... I'm just coming to see you, right away...... I'm going back soon. ”
Xiao Heng smiled gently, "Yinxiang, they have all fallen asleep, I guarantee that you have already returned to the house before they wake up." ”
"Yinxiang knows the eldest brother who is the janitor, and he only comes out to see a relative." Yinxiang said in a low voice: "Originally, I wanted to come over earlier, but ...... The lord and his wife talked for a long time tonight, and they didn't rest until late, so ......! ”
"Chu Du went to bed very late?" Xiao Heng's expression was calm, and he said softly: "Could it be that he is also talking about lovesickness with his wife?" When Chu Du went out on the expedition for a long time, he must have missed his wife very much. ”
"No...... No......! Yinxiang hurriedly waved her hand, wanting to say something, but stopped talking, lowered her head, and said, "I...... I don't know anything......! ”
This was a little strange, Xiao Heng suddenly felt that there was a big problem in it, and he was not in a hurry to ask, but said softly: "Yinxiang, I met with Chu Du today, if there is no problem, you can return to Beishan soon, you wait for me here, I will send someone to propose marriage soon." ”
Yinxiang's face was red, and she hesitated for a moment before she asked in a low voice, "Childe, are you...... Are you doing things well here? ”
Xiao Heng sighed and said, "Everything that should be said has been said, but Chu Du doesn't know how to ...... his mind!" ”
"Actually...... In fact, the lord admires you very much......! Yinxiang hesitated, "The lord and the lady talked about you, and they also said ......!" "I really didn't go on.
Xiao Heng was very anxious in his heart, but his face was impassive, and he smiled: "You have been serving Chu Du and his wife for dinner?" ”
"There aren't many people in the house." Yinxiang explained, "Every day, I and my two sisters serve ...... dinner! ”
"I see." Xiao Heng's heart was full of joy, but he couldn't imagine that Yinxiang was serving by Chu Huan's side, he knew that many times, some important things were leaked out of the dining table, and when he wanted to come to Chu Huan to eat, he also liked to talk to his wife about some official business, this Yinxiang was waiting by the side, and he must know a lot of things, "Chu Du is actually a broad-minded person, and I admire him very much." ”
Yinxiang said softly: "The master said that you are brave, and you ...... And he has sharp teeth and outstanding talents, and he also said ......! "I thought about it for a moment, and I didn't know if I should say it.
Xiao Heng showed a gentle smile that many women were addicted to, and his voice was even more gentle: "Yinxiang, there are only you and me here, what we say here, go out, don't mention it to anyone, just treat it as our whisper, okay?" He knew that Yinxiang was the slave of the Governor's Mansion after all, and it was very taboo to reveal the whereabouts of his master, so he had to open Yinxiang's concerns and let her rest assured.
Yinxiang said "um", saw Xiao Heng's tender face, and finally said: "The master said that there may not be a few of Governor Xiao's subordinates who can catch up with the son." He said that this time he came to Shuoquan, and few people in Beishan had the courage to do so, but Gongzi dared to come over alone, yes...... He is a young talent who can do great things. ”
When Xiao Heng heard this, his heart was happy, although Xiao Huanzhang sent him to Shuoquan for this trip, he didn't dare to disobey, but in addition to being apprehensive, he also felt in his heart that he was quite a lonely hero.
At this time, he learned from Yinxiang's mouth that Chu Huan greatly appreciated him, and he was even more high-spirited, only thinking that Chu Huan's eyesight was not bad, but he put on a modest attitude and smiled: "Chu Du is too famous." Yinxiang, I don't care what Chu Du thinks, as long as you think I'm good, then I'll be satisfied. ”
Yinxiang was very shy and lowered her head, but Xiao Heng poured a cup of tea for Yinxiang, and then asked, "Did Chu Du praise me for one night?" ”
"No, it's not ......!" Yinxiang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The master said that many officials persuaded him to attack Beishan ......!" As soon as the words came out, he seemed to feel that he couldn't say this, and hurriedly covered the cherry mouth with his little hand.
What Xiao Heng wanted to know most at this time was what was the attitude of Chu Huan and his group of officials after he left the Governor's Mansion, but he knew that after he left the Governor's Mansion, Chu Huan would definitely discuss with his subordinates again whether to attack Beishan.
"Attack the North Mountain?" Xiao Heng deliberately frowned, "Yinxiang, why did Chu Du do this?" ”
Yinxiang knew that she had lost her mouth, so she could only sigh faintly, and said: "Childe, the lord said to Madame that those officials thought that Beishan took advantage of the danger of people and almost hit Beishan...... Also make Governor Xiao uncomfortable......! ”
Xiao Heng hurriedly asked, "What does Chu Du mean?" ”
"The master said it, he knows that he can't lose a big one because of a small one, he said that Zhu Lingyue is the real enemy, and he should join forces with Governor Xiao to deal with Zhu Lingyue." Yinxiang seemed to be thinking about something, and spoke very slowly: "However, those officials said that Governor Xiao did not really ally ally with Xiguan, so he had to fight...... The lord hadn't made up his mind yet, but he told his wife that he had made a ...... with the officials who couldn't do it! ”
"Discuss?" Xiao Heng asked, "Yinxiang, what does Chu Du mean?" ”
"Childe, did you tell the master that Beishan prepared some light gifts for Xiguan?"
Xiao Heng nodded and said, "This is indeed the case." ”
Yinxiang then said: "Actually...... In fact, the old man said that this batch of so-called Bo Li will determine whether Xiguan is ...... alliance with Beishan! ”
"Oh?" Xiao Hengxin mentioned his throat and eyes, "What does this have to do with Bo Li?" ”
"The master said that these gifts represent the sincerity of Beishan." Yinxiang's round eyes flashed, "The master said, you said that it was a thin gift, but this so-called thin gift should not be too light." ”
Xiao Heng said with a smile: "The word Bo Li is just a scene, of course the gift is not light." ”
Yinxiang nodded slightly: "That's right, the master said the same thing, he said that Bo Li was just a scene, but ...... If Beishan really just used some thin gifts to fool people, even if he wanted to form an alliance with Beishan, those officials under him would not agree. ”
"In this way, Chu Du's side already has a bottom in his heart." Xiao Heng touched his chin, thoughtfully, and asked softly, "Yinxiang, did Chu Du say the specific number?" ”
"I didn't say it at dinner." Yinxiang shook his head and said, "He only said his attitude towards Beishan, it depends on the sincerity of Governor Xiao." If the modest gifts provided are rich enough, the lord is ready to use these gifts to deal with Zhu Lingyue, and no longer embarrass Beishan, he said that his biggest enemy is Zhu Lingyue of Tianshan, not Xiao Huanzhang of Beishan...... Hmm, Childe, I'm sorry, I ......! ”
"It's okay!" Xiao Heng waved his hand and smiled: "You continue." ”
"As long as Beishan's gifts are abundant, he can explain to his officials that Governor Xiao is sincerely allied with Xiguan and will turn enemies into friends in the future." Yinxiang said softly: "It's just that if the gift that Beishan took out is to fool people, it proves that Beishan is just taking something to please Xiguan casually, and there is no sincerity, even if the lord doesn't want to fight, the officials under him don't agree, and when the time comes, they still have to use troops against Beishan...... Looking at Xiao Heng's face, he said softly: "Madam said, it's better not to fight, the master said that sometimes if you don't fight, even if he is the governor, he can't be the master, if everyone wants to fight, he stops everyone, everyone will have opinions about him, and people's hearts are easy to disperse......!" ”
Xiao Heng was moved: "Yinxiang, you can say this to me, it shows that you and I have a good relationship, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down." ”
"Childe, I'm ......!" Yinxiang lowered her head again.
Xiao Heng sighed: "I am determined to marry you, but ...... If once Beishan and Xiguan fight, I ...... Even if I send someone to propose marriage, how can Chu Du win? With a long sigh, he said with a distressed face: "If we know Chu Du's requirements for gifts, we have the bottom on our side, this war can be avoided, and you and I will be able to have lovers and eventually become dependents...... He shook his head with a wry smile, looking preoccupied.
Under the lights, although Yinxiang did not have a stunning appearance, she was delicate and delicate, but she was also very beautiful, she saw that Xiao Heng's face was not good-looking, she also frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked softly: "Childe, are you ...... Do you think there's anything I can do to help you? Or...... Why don't I go talk to my wife and let her persuade her not to beat you ......!" As soon as the words came out, he immediately shook his head and said: "Well, this can't be done, the lord never listens to the lady in major military and political affairs, even if the lady persuades, the lord is unmoved, and ...... And I'm just a slave, and I can't tell Madame about these things, otherwise Madame will definitely punish ......!" ”
