The three of us were discussing, when we heard a message from the boy at the door, saying that Zhao Ying and Shi Mo wanted to see me.

"I'll go over first, and we'll talk about it later." I got up and went to the back of the screen to tidy up my clothes, and when I came out, Beru was already gone, but Zhao Wuxian was still standing outside the tent.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Father Qing should already know that you are the adopted daughter of the Wu family, if he asks, you just need to answer, you ran away because you didn't want to be Gongzili's concubine, don't mention all the things you have with Wu Feng."

"Don't worry, even if you lend me ten guts, I don't dare to talk nonsense in front of the prime minister."

When I walked outside Zhao Ying's tent, I happened to see Shi Mo coming from the opposite side, I stopped and saluted him, he took out a small piece of bamboo from his sleeve and handed it to me.

I flipped through the bamboo slices and saw that there was only one word "water" written on them.

"Master? It's ......"

"Think about it!" After Shi Mo finished speaking, he took the boy into the tent, and I hurriedly followed.

Zhao Ying was discussing with several close ministers at this time, and when he saw Shi Mo coming in, he stood up and welcomed him to the table on the left and sat down: "Taishi came just in time, the day when the husband returned to Wu can no longer be delayed, what is Taishi's good plan?" ”

"Do you have a solution?" Shi Mo looked around the tent and asked.

"I thought that Wu would send someone to pass on the military report again, and as long as we didn't do it at that time, after the husband learned that Gusu had fallen, he would pull out the camp and return to Wu." A man in blue with a long beard stood up and replied.

"No, no, this is the eighth, if the husband finds out where the first seven went, it will inevitably be suspicious of us. When the time comes, the face will be torn, and the 400,000 army will have to fight in Huangchi first! The black-faced man shook his head.

"Of course, it is best to let the husband ask himself to return to Wu without knowing the fall of Gusu, but my talent is limited, so I can only consult Taishi." The long-bearded man looked at Shi Mo Gong and said.

"The old man didn't come up with any good countermeasures, but the little apprentice has a good plan to dedicate to the prime minister."

As soon as Shi Mo's voice fell, all the people in the big tent, including Zhao Ying, turned their eyes to me.

I was shocked, and said secretly, where do I have any good plans to offer, Shi Mo is not trying to harm me, right?

"Taishi, your disciple's eyes are very good, isn't it the childish one who was just collected in the previous month?" A bearded man in leather armor looked at me with slanted eyes and said with a smile.

The other advisors in the tent also smiled contemptuously.

"Zidian, if you have any good plans, just say it." Zhao Ying looked at me and said.

I was speechless for a while, looking at the smiling faces of everyone, my mind was empty, I couldn't even think of a good idea, and I couldn't even think of a word of shirk.

"Just outside the tent, what you said to the teacher, just say it to Yuqing. Don't be afraid, it's not in the way if you say something wrong. Shi Mo looked around the tent, and everyone consciously put away their smiles.

Off-the-books? Bamboo chips!

With a thought, I walked to the tent, knelt down and said, "Zi Di's dedication is a water plan." ”

"What is a water meter?" Zhao Ying asked.

"The Yellow Pond is the ancient water, and there is a kind of spirit fish named Win in the water, this fish has two wings with silver scales, and now it is a big water. Tomorrow, when the Duke of Wu and the kings of Jin and Lu are boating on the lake, if a boatman comes in to offer this thing, and the Dazai Boyao of the Wu State happens to know the 'winning fish', then the Duke of Wu will not let his hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers be trapped in the Yellow Pond and suffer from the flood. ”

"Where are we going to find this 'winning fish'?" The black-faced man asked.

"Huangchi already produces silver-scaled fish, so we only need to take silver threads and sew bird fins on the skin. Besides, the dead fish smells fishy, and if it is a little rotten, there will be no traces of threads. ”

"'Winning Fish' is something that is unheard of, so how can Wu Guo Dazai Bo Yao know?" Someone asked again.

"This is easy, Bo Ya is greedy for money and good at work, so leave this matter to Dou Ming!" Zhao Ying's words interrupted the bearded man's words.

"No!" The man in blue with the long beard stood up and answered.

Three days later, while I was sifting through the freshly picked herbs in my tent, Beru brought a group of servants into my tent with large and small eating utensils.

"Xiao'er, come and eat, my father has specially rewarded you." After Beru instructed the servants to put down their things, he let them all retreat out of the tent, and he approached me and whispered, "The husband has bid farewell to the king yesterday, and today he will return to Wu." Xiao'er, since you had a countermeasure that day, why did you hide it from me and Hongyun'er? ”

I opened a clay pot the size of a palm, took a dagger and forked a piece of roasted meat and put it in my mouth: "Well, it's delicious, you eat it, what kind of meat is this?" I forked a small piece of meat and handed it to Berru.

"It's grilled venison." As soon as Beru bit into his mouth, he knew, "Son, you haven't answered my question yet!" ”

"That's Master's plan, not mine." I told Bolu everything about Shi Mo handing me bamboo chips outside Zhao Ying's tent.

"It seems that Taishi likes you quite a lot, and specially gave you a chance to show your face in front of everyone. But if it were me, even if Taishi wrote a hundred words of 'water', I wouldn't be able to think of what kind of winged fish to deceive my husband. ”

"Wu is bordered by the sea and has a lot of water, and countless people die due to floods and tides every summer, so the reverence for water is far better than that of the Central Plains, so it is best to use the flood as an excuse." After I finished speaking, I stood up, folded the other larger food boxes, and said to Beru, "I'll send these things to Master, you wait here for me, and I'll be back right away!" ”

Bolu waved his hand and smiled: "Go ahead, Taishi finally didn't accept your apprentice in vain." ”

I brought my things to Smo's tent, but I learned that he wasn't in the tent at the time, so I put my things down and left. On the way, he met Zhao Wuxian, who had returned from walking his horse, and pulled him into his tent.

"I can't eat so much by myself, so if you like it, you can move back."

"Xiao'er is really eccentric, why only let Hongyun'er move back, and I won't have a share?" Beru raised an eyebrow and feigned anger.

"You only took a bite and knew it was venison, and it seems that you don't eat less on weekdays. As far as you are concerned, this venison is not precious enough, and how can I give something that is not precious to the son of the world that I admire in my heart! I looked at him and laughed.

Seeing the two of us smiling happily, Bo Lu lay on the ground with his hands on his pillow, and sighed lightly: "Xiao'er, your prophecy about the Huangchi Huimeng at the Taishi Mansion that day has come true. 'You say, when the weak water meets the fire, it will be burned out', the fire that has accumulated for ten years really burned the Gusutai that his husband had painstakingly built, and burned his dream of hegemony. You said, 'Jin is gold, gold gives birth to water, so Jin saves Wu', but the fish with wings really gave birth to unseen and untouchable water, which led the husband to return to Wu and left the last breath for Wu Guo. After Beru finished speaking, he sat up, stared at me and asked, "Could it be that you are really the son of God sent from heaven?" ”

I sank my face and looked at Beru with extremely serious eyes, and I was embarrassed: "Shizi, I didn't want to tell you, but since you have seen through ......"

Boru leaned forward and said in surprise: "I really guessed it?" ”

I looked at him, put another piece of meat in my mouth, chewed for a while, and grinned: "The son of the world is wise, this is really venison!" After saying that, I laughed with Wuxian holding my stomach.

Bru's face turned white for a while, and he muttered a few complaints, and while I wasn't paying attention, he snatched the food jar from my hand and ran away.

Not long after Wu's army left, the Jin army and the Lu army also set out for China. This Huangchi alliance can be described as a complete victory for the Jin State, no gain or loss for the Lu State, and a great disaster for the Wu State. When Fucha saw the devastated Gusu City, it was time for him to wake up from his dream of being the overlord.

"What are you thinking?" Shirtless asked me.

"I'm wondering if my husband will kill Shi Yiguang in a fit of anger?"

"He lost to Gou Jian, lost to himself, and had nothing to do with women."

"You are wise, you didn't say that you are a disaster to the country, and you are like a fool."

"If you have to say one of the ruined husbands and defeated the soldiers this time, it is not Shi Yiguang."

"Who's that?"

"There will always be, who knows?"

……

We returned to Xinjiang from Huangchi, and as soon as we arrived in the mansion, we heard that one of Bolu's concubines had given birth to a son for him, and Zhao Ying was happy and immediately rewarded the concubine with thirty gold, and ten more silks.

"This is the first child in the world!" Everyone was surrounding Beru and the child at the moment, and Wuxian and I stood by and watched with a smile, sharing the joy of Berlu's first fatherhood.

"This kid looks like him!" I looked at the chubby little face in Bru's arms and said excitedly to the shirtless.

Wuxian smiled faintly: "It's a pity that the status of the child's mother is too low, if he gives birth to a son-in-law in the future, the child will be pitiful." ”

"You also suffered a lot when you were a child, didn't you?"

"Are you sympathizing with me?" Wuxian glanced down at me and smiled, "I'm much more pitiful than this child, his biological mother is the daughter of a doctor's family, but my biological mother is a prisoner of war as a slave." If it weren't for my brother's care, my father probably wouldn't have remembered that there was such a son as me. ”

He smiled calmly, but I felt more and more pitiful for him. In fact, Zhao Wuxian has outstanding ability, if he is born in Zhao Bolu's position, he will definitely do something in the future. It's a pity that he comes from a humble background, even if he is appreciated by Zhao Ying now, the people of the Zhao family still only regard him as an ordinary swordsman, just like Xun Ji who is sullen at the moment, she has never looked at her little brother-in-law.

"Come, come, come, this is Uncle Wuxi, this is Aunt Ashi." Beru walked towards us with a baby carved in pink and jade, "You two, do you have a gift for my eldest son?" ”

"Of course, there is!" Wuxian took out a small lacquer box from his bosom and handed it to the concubine beside Boru, then bowed his head and said softly to the baby: "Uncle is not as generous as your father, only a pearl obtained on the coast of the East China Sea in the early years will be given to you to wear on the crown in the future." ”

The round-faced concubine opened the lacquer box with a smile, and everyone gasped when they saw it.

This is a pearl the size of a bird's egg, Hongyun'er, what should I do if you give this gift......
