I still remember that the second miss of the Xiao family is a woman who does not go out of the door, she is cowardly and timid by nature, and even people dare not take a second look, she often followed behind Xiao Wanyan back then, always crying and crying, Xiao Wanyan also reprimanded her more than once for this, and now it is a great wonder to see her in the General's Mansion.

Chu Huairan didn't have a good impression of Xiao Wanqingsheng, although she was the sister of his own wife, but he always felt that it was not pleasing to the eye, he pinched Wei Chiyan's careful thoughts, and looked at him with a strange look: "I always thought that you didn't like the noble lady in the capital, and you should like the county lord of Anping like that when you fight and kill outside all the year round." ”

Yu Chiyan was nervous: "I can't be blessed with the lord of Anping, it's better to leave it to King Qing, Brother Huairan, I'm afraid it's not a mistake, it seems that you didn't like Miss Guimen in the past, not me, I'm strange, Xiao Wanyan is not the most beautiful among many Miss Guimen, why do you fall in love with her." ”

Chu Huairan couldn't hold his face when Wei Chiyan said, but he couldn't hear others say that Xiao Wanyan was not good, and continued to defend: "You must be mistaken, think about how many people like Wanyan can you find among the many ladies of your family who are knowledgeable and understanding?" ”

"Knowledgeable? Empathetic? Wei Chiyan twitched the corners of his mouth, made up for Xiao Wanyan's previous thoughts, trembled all over, and patted Chu Huairan's shoulder: "Listen to my advice, close to Zhu Zhi's Red Army is touching the dark, don't learn everything from your wife in the future, this kind of boastful words come out of your mouth, weird, very weird." ”

Chu Huairan unconsciously tasted the taste, and pondered: "Is it weird? I don't think so. ”

Chu Huairan had been thoroughly impregnated, Yu Chiyan knew his temperament, shook his head helplessly, patted him on the shoulder, and muttered: "People who are not charming are self-obsessed, and there is Xi Shi in the eyes of lovers." ”

For so many years, Chu Huairan had never been so sad about that woman, but his dedication to Xiao Wanyan, Wei Chiyan saw it in his eyes, he knew that this man who could not care about anything in the past also had someone who put his life first, and he couldn't help but worry: "Brother Huairan, with Mrs., in the future, you will be in danger." ”

Chu Huairan understood what he meant, paused, and said firmly: "I will never put her in danger, and I will not be in danger." ”

The same thing happened here in Xiao Wanyan, and Yu Chiyan sighed: "An An in the forest, how long have you not been to see it?" ”

Chu Huairan stiffened, An An was a rabbit he rescued in the forest when he was young, he had compassion just by looking at it, he named the rabbit An An, healed its injuries, and carefully maintained it for two years, but until the catastrophe came, he was ruthless in order to practice, not to let himself be soft-hearted, not to let himself have weakness, and killed An An who was like a relative.

Yu Chiyan still remembers that day, that day, Qingming, drenched in light rain, Chu Huairan stood in the heavy rain and looked at the small mound where An An was buried, his eyes were full of calm, looking at Chu Huairan who had been standing in the rain for a long time, he was puzzled: "Since you are so reluctant, why do you want to kill him?" ”

Chu Huairan looked indifferent: "I will bury Bai Moqing's past, mercy, and weakness here, and from now on, there will be no Bai Moqing in the world, only the ruthless and ruthless Chu Huairan." ”

Ten years, Chu Huairan spent ten years to regain the position of prime minister, but now he can't remember the former An An, but he is deeply trapped in Xiao Wanyan today.

Wei Chiyan didn't understand, he didn't understand what changed Chu Huairan's obsession: "Why her?" ”

Yes, why her, Chu Huairan's mind flashed the moments when she and Xiao Wanyan got along, and murmured, "Why her?" Xu because she was the first person to try to save me. ”

Wei Chiyan was silent: "As long as you are well, the rest is up to you." ”

Accompany Chu Huairan to witness life and death, the family is always ruined and the death of Wei Chiyan is always the only one, he is Chu Huairan like a close relative, he has witnessed Chu Huairan from young to strong, from affectionate to ruthless, but he never asks more, because he believes, a "letter" word has been insisted on for many years, and he has never regretted it.

Wei Chiyan looked at the sky that was still bright outside, and said, "It's still early today, and the second lady of the Xiao family is also here, why don't you stay with me for a while and have dinner with us." ”

Chu Huairan got up and refused: "Madame is still waiting for me to go back for dinner, you and the second lady of the Xiao family can eat by yourself." ”

Seeing that Chu Huairan didn't plan to stay longer for a moment, Yu Chiyan smacked his lips: "Hey, man." ”

Wei Chiyan sent Chu Huairan away, walked to the path in front of the garden, and met Xiao Wanqing being brought in.

Today, Xiao Wanqing's outfit is very eye-catching, wearing a blue dress, outlining her beautiful figure, and the hem of the skirt is embroidered with orchids, which is slightly light and calm.

She dyed a light makeup today, although it was light but very delicate, her already beautiful face was even more moving, and her smart eyes were like clear water, which made people unable to take their eyes off.

Today's dress couldn't help but surprise Yu Chiyan, as if something hit his heart, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

Seeing this, Xiao Wanqing bowed to Wei Chiyan Yingying, and there was a little cowardice in her eyes when she smiled: "I've seen the prime minister, I've seen the general." ”

Yu Chiyan helped her weakly, and said in a warm voice: "Miss Wanqing doesn't have to do these false courtesies. ”

Chu Huairan, who looked oblivious to him, rolled his eyes, he didn't want to disturb the two of them, so he said: "Since Miss Wanqing has something to do with the general, then I will go back first." ”

Yu Chiyan nodded: "If the prime minister walks slowly, I won't send it." ”

Chu Huairan glanced at him and said in his heart: "When you see a woman, you can't walk, and you dare to send it?" ”

He smiled on his face and bowed slightly, walked towards the door, passed by Xiao Wanyan's side, a light breeze blew, a familiar fragrance filled his nose, Chu Huairan twisted his brows, and glanced at Xiao Wanyan without saying a word, only paused, raised his feet and left.

Today, Hui Feng and Chang, Yu Chiyan faintly smelled a few wisps of flowers, and he took Xiao Wanqing to the pavilion, drinking tea, and playing chess to pass the time.

Seeing that Bai Zi was settled, dark and had no way out, Yu Chiyan shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Miss Wanqing's chess skills are superb, I can't take the stage as a monk halfway, so Miss Wanqing laughs." ”

Xiao Wanqing took a sip of tea and moistened her mouth, and said softly: "What did the general say, you are not only strong in martial arts, but also good at chess, and you are proficient in everything, so how should we live if we have no talent." ”

Yu Chiyan was stupid, scratching the back of his head embarrassedly: "Miss Wanqing said that I was laughing, I am a reckless man, I dance with knives and guns on weekdays, and these literary and artistic things are more powerful than Miss Wanqing." ”

Now, there is a little less estrangement between the two when they meet, and Xiao Wanyan doesn't have much cowardice, she bent her eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly: "I admire those soldiers in the barracks very much on weekdays, they are all strong in martial arts, very powerful, when I was a child, although I stayed at home, in fact, what I wanted to go to the barracks the most, to see them shoot arrows and ride horses, and to see them fight kung fu." ”

This can be regarded as talking about Wei Chiyan's heart, he most wants to find a confidant who can ride a horse and shoot arrows with him and understand him, he is very happy in his heart, but he still cares about decency on his face, for fear of scaring Xiao Wanyan away, and said with a slight smile: "This is not easy to do, since Miss Wanqing likes it, then tomorrow, I will take you to the barracks for archery and horseback riding, okay?" ”

Xiao Wanqing looked at him in surprise, her eyes were full of light, and she said in a cowardly tone: "What the general said is true?" ”

Wei Chiyan nodded and said, "Then we can agree, I will send someone to pick you up early tomorrow morning." ”

The barracks is a good place, many soldiers are conscientiously guarding there, and the weapons there are the best in the whole Zhou, Xiao Wanyan has been coveting it for a long time, if these weapons help, then she has more hope of recovering the country.

But Chu Huairan never said to take her to see it, and Wei Chiyan's appearance of being difficult to deal with gave her a headache, and she couldn't face him with the previous teasing.

Seeing the clouds gathered together outside, a dazzling glow appeared on the horizon, and the red sunset spread all over the sky, Xiao Wanyan stood by the window and felt a lot more comfortable.

Qu Xiaoran, who went out, came back, he brought back a weapon map from the post house, Xiao Wanyan looked at the picture above and frowned: "Feng Ruyi wants to build weapons?" ”

Qu Xiaoran responded: "The people sent out came back and said that the things needed for this weapon are only available to Da Zhou, and they must have come to build this weapon this time, and I heard that people from Da Liang have frequently appeared in the palace recently, and the slave suspects that Da Liang has the intention of annexing Da Zhou." ”

Xiao Wanyan carefully glanced at the weapon map, and sneered: "With such a weapon, I also want to subvert the Great Zhou, Feng Ruyi is still so short-sighted, the mother emperor said when she was alive, in addition to relying on powerful war materials, there is also the heartfelt heart of the people of the Great Zhou, why did so many people who want to subvert the imperial power delay in making a move, because there are foolish and loyal old courtiers in the court, if they want to infiltrate the court and plot against the courtiers, I think she has the wrong idea, and even we can detect these small actions of hers, Do you think the emperor of the Great Zhou didn't know? ”

Qu Xiaoran hesitated: "Are you saying that all this is expected by the Great Zhou Emperor?" ”

Xiao Wanyan said indifferently: "I have seen the emperor of the Great Zhou twice, he is definitely not as mediocre as the outside world rumores, he is drunk and drunk, he is a person with great wisdom, if Feng Ruyi wants to be clever and use this means to annex, she will definitely die a miserable death." ”

The emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty has repeatedly targeted her, she feels that there must be a reason, but for the time being, she doesn't understand what is mixed with it, she can't figure it out, she always feels that Qi Jiuyue seems to be related to this matter, but because of Fu Minmin, she would rather exclude Qi Jiuyue, fortunately, Qi Jiuyue didn't do anything out of the ordinary, so she turned a blind eye.

But Xiao Wanyan has always been cautious, there are some things that are not absolutely certain, she will definitely not be involved, for the matter of the Great Zhou Emperor, she carefully told Qu Xiaoran and said: "We have to see the end of this scene from the beginning, the matter between me and Feng Ruyi is nothing more than Da Liang's own business, and we don't need to worry about it when we are involved in the Great Zhou." ”

Qu Xiaoran said respectfully: "The slave understands. ”
