Chapter 21 Define Your Own Destiny
After waiting for a long time, the stream behind him finally came to the movement.
Xie Yao couldn't help but look back, and sure enough, Chu Zhao was standing on the shore with a body of water droplets.
When Xie Yao saw him go ashore, he hurriedly ran over, came to him, looked him left and right, and said with concern, "My lord, how are you?" ”
Chu Zhao glanced at her, stunned, quickly looked away, and said, "Put on your clothes first!" ”
Xie Yao looked down, but she didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but since Chu Zhao said it, she naturally put it on obediently.
After getting dressed, Xie Yao remembered what he had just done, and asked again, "My lord, have you just been injured?" Is it okay now? Why don't you go find a doctor to take a look? My lord?"
Chu Zhao sighed, faintly impatient, "Xie Yao! ”
"The little ones are here!"
"You shut your mouth for me."
“…… Be. ”
The two of them found a big rock to sit on, and blew the wind for a long day, basking in the sun.
Xie Yao sat silently not far from him.
She wanted to ask everything, but she didn't dare to ask anything, staring at her toes, she suddenly heard Chu Zhao say, "What's the matter?" ”
Xie Yao raised his head, his gaze fell on the back of his hand, and he saw that the originally intact skin had been scraped by something, a piece of skin and flesh bloomed, and the blood condensed and left scarlet marks.
Xie Yao covered it and said, "It's okay, it's a small injury." ”
She had just been thrown away by him in the stream and accidentally scraped against an uneven rock, and she didn't even feel the pain.
After a moment of silence, she asked, "My lord, are you okay?" ”
"Alright."
"You...... Did you get the trick? ”
“…… Be. ”
"Do you have any news, my lord? What should I do with the Birth Gang? ”
Chu Zhao said suspiciously, "What am I doing to inquire about the news?" ”
Xie Yao, "......"
Xie Yao's eyes widened, "My lord, didn't you go to Wangxian Tower to listen to the news?" ”
"Who told you I was there to find out?"
Chu Zhao got up, put on his half-dried robe, and said, "Let's go, pack up, it's time for us to leave." ”
Xie Yao saw that he was extremely fast, so he hurriedly followed, and said hurriedly, "My lord, then what are you going to do in Wangxian Tower?" You know it's a Hongmen feast, do you know how worried the little one was last night? ”
When he returned to the inn, Guo Yujue was waiting in the back of the courtyard, and when he saw that the two of them had returned overnight, they were messy, so he asked them to change their clothes first.
Xie Yao changed into clean clothes and took the lead to go out, it was almost noon, there were a few meals on the table, Xie Yao sat down, and said with a smile, "Old man, if I don't catch fast, it will be beautiful to eat and drink nonsense in this Cao Gang." ”
Guo Yujue said with a smile, "You girl, you have a lot of well gas mixed with your body, but my old man likes you as the only one." ”
"Busy all night, let's eat first, that kid is sick, he will wash it when he comes back, let's not wait for him."
Since it was Guo Yujue who spoke, Xie Yao was no longer polite, picked up the bowl, ate a few bites, and saw that there was no movement in the room, Xie Yao was curious, and mysteriously lowered his voice and asked, "Old man, do you know Wu Lu?" ”
"Naturally, Wu Lu is Chu Xiaozi's personal guard, and he grew up with him since he was a child."
"That's the case, the lord said that Wu Lu was injured and recuperated in Cangxian County, but as far as I know, no one in Cangxian County stayed to recuperate."
Guo Yujue's old god took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "Girl, then you might as well guess, if Wu Lu is not injured, what did he do?" ”
Xie Yao hesitated, but Chu Zhao was not there, she was a little nervous, endured it, but after all, she couldn't hold back, and said, "Old man, I've thought about it for a long time, if what you and the adults said is true, then Wu Lu is not injured at all?" Others are not in Cangxian either. ”
The old man smiled and didn't speak.
Xie Yao said again, "The adult said that he would leave today, not to have fun, no matter whether today's birthday gang can be retrieved or not, he is really going to leave for the capital today." ”
The old man smiled even more.
Xie Yao made up her mind, and was about to say more, when she heard a movement from the door in front of her, she looked up and saw that Chu Zhao had already finished dressing, changed into a dark red and black clothes, and was walking forward.
Just like the first time I saw him in the Cangxian Mansion that day, his expression was light, his eyebrows and eyes were seven points cold, three points handsome, and he was quite a little angry and self-righteous.
They all said that Chu Zhao looked like his mother, I don't know what kind of woman gave birth to such a person?
Chu Zhao sat down, raised his eyes to look at her, and said, "That's a good point, go on, I'll listen." ”
Encouraged by this, Xie Yao calmed down and said, "I have guessed countless times that the Birth Compendium was lost, why did the adults seem unhurried, now that I think about it, if the guess in my heart is true, then everything makes sense." ”
Chu Zhao picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up the vegetables, when he heard the words, he looked at her slightly.
Xu is the meaning of his gaze is too obvious, Xie Yao was stunned, saw him stop the chopsticks, quickly reacted, and then picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables for him.
In this way, Chu Zhao was stunned in his heart, and looked at her with a slight raised eyebrow.
Xie Yao sandwiched the food for him, and then said, "My lord, the Nanhai Dongjiao seal, and the sound in Liu Rulong's courtyard are all deliberate." ”
Chu Zhao smiled, "Yes." ”
"You go to the feast and say it's the right time, you're distracting them."
"That's right."
"Forgive the little courage to guess, the big guy should be on the way to the capital at this time, and the only one of us who is still staying in Yanzhou is the two of us."
He nodded.
Xie Yao took a deep breath, his eyes lit up like a starry flame, and asked, "The batch of Birth Compendiums that Liu Rulong intercepted is fake?"
Chu Zhao replied, "That's right. ”
Really!
Chu Zhao and the old gang leader looked at each other and smiled, touched the wine glasses, and drank them all.
Xie Yao asked, "What about the real Birth Gang?" Arrived in the capital? ”
"Calculate the time, it should be up."
In fact, starting from Fengyang, what he held in his hand was not a real Birth Gang, Chu Zhao knew how many people coveted this batch of Birth Gang, from the very beginning, he made arrangements, the prince only thought that such an important thing as the Birth Gang, how could he not personally escort it, but Chu Zhao handed it over to Wu Lu and secretly sent it back, and he swaggered through the market with a fake Birth Gang, which attracted everyone's attention.
abacus, he crackled from the beginning.
The Cao Gang's doubts are reasonable, why his personal guard Wu Lu does not walk with him, this is really to the point.
Of course, Chu Zhao couldn't tell him that Wu Lu was now escorting the real birthday gang back to the capital, one of the funniest things in the world, was to see that the opponent was self-righteous and wanted to calculate people, but he became a clown who jumped off the beam without knowing it.
If there is a miscalculation in this, it may be last night's medicine.
Chu Zhao stared at the wine glass, his memory was a little fragmented, and he only vaguely remembered who he seemed to be hugging, and when he came to his senses again, it was already the time to get up from the lake.
"Your Excellency?"
Xie Yao's hand shook in front of him, and when he saw Chu Zhao's eyes, he smiled and said, "That lord, we have been busy for a long time, and we haven't done useless work, right?" ”
"Do you think I'm idle? Bean curd. ”
He said naturally.
Xie Yao sandwiched a piece of tofu for him, and when he caught a glimpse of the old gang leader on the side looking at her thoughtfully and kindly, Xie Yao hurriedly smiled and said, "Old man, you can eat it too." ”
She diligently sandwiched a large amount of chopsticks and fish meat to Guo Yujue, and looked at him with a smile on her face.
