Chapter Seventy-One
Zhong Shuyu froze when he turned around and saw the person coming, this woman was really the one he had dealt with - Yeli Baohua.
How did she recognize herself?
When he rescued Bei Chuan, he just painted a portrait of her, and later he could be said to have retreated with his whole body, and he did not have a head-to-head confrontation with Xirong, so why did this woman look like an old acquaintance with herself?
Seeing Zhong Zhuyu's face stiff, Qin Bairui hurriedly stepped forward to block Zhong Zhuyu behind him, with a vigilant expression: "Who are you?" ”
Yeli Baohua had a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, looked Qin Bairui up and down, turned his head slightly towards Zhong Zhuyu and said, "This is your man?" If you want me to say that the Dayu man is still not as handsome as our Xirong man, Sister Gai Ming'er will send you a few. ”
This is simply an insult to the entire Dayu man!
Qin Bairui's heart was furious, but he knew that these Xirong people dared to walk on the streets of Lin'an so arrogantly, they must have some identity, so he held back his fist and choked: "Don't bother with you, she has enough for me alone!" ”
Zhong Zhiyu listened to the black lines on his head, twisted the soft flesh on his waist to warn him not to talk nonsense, and raised a polite and detached smile on his face: "I don't know if this lady is ......?" ”
"Don't pretend, you disappeared with Princess Beiyi, do you think I won't investigate you?"
Yeli Baohua casually flicked the ash on his shoulder, and made a "please" gesture towards Zhong Shuyu, thinking that he had something to say.
Zhong Zhiyu saw that the surrounding area noticed that the number of people here had increased, so he followed her like a stream, and asked, "I don't know what Mrs. Yeli has investigated?" ”
"Naturally, there are no more of these in your Zhong family's life." Yeli Baohua tugged at his neckline again, as if he felt that Da Yu's clothes were uncomfortable: "I didn't expect that you have been a proton in Beiyi for so many years, and you have a good relationship with Princess Beiyi." ”
Zhong Zhiyu's heart sank slightly, and he avoided answering, but continued to ask, "Where did you investigate from?" ”
Yeli Baohua was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "I thought you were a smart person, how could you ask such a question." If I tell you where to investigate, won't I expose my people? ”
Zhong Yuyu also laughed: "So it's my Zhong family's army that has a traitorous spy?" ”
"Not really." Yeli Baohua gave her a meaningful look: "Your Zhong Jiajun is indeed a hard bone, whether it is coercion or torture, you will not say anything." ”
As soon as he said this, Zhong Zhuyu and Qin Bairui's faces sank, Zhong Zhuyu paused, and squeezed out word by word from between his teeth: "You arrested Zhong Jiajun?" Is it Huang Yuhe's army? ”
Yeli Baohua Shi Ran sat down on a wonton stall and asked for another bowl of wontons before replying: "After all, on the Baili Ancient Road, without the people of Beiyi, only your Zhong family army in Dayu will threaten us." ”
"Impossible." Qin Bairui retorted to her: "If something happens over there, it is impossible for us not to receive the news." ”
At this time, Ye Li Baohua glanced at him more, but that's all, she mainly wanted to talk to Zhong Shuyu: "Okay, lie to you." We just secretly caught a single interrogation, and everyone else is fine, after all, we have just finished fighting with Beiyi, but we don't have the strength to fight with you Dayu again. ”
"You're done?"
Qin Bairui and Zhong Zhuyu glanced at each other, obviously neither side received this news.
"Yes, after the princess was sent back to Beiyi by you, they Beiyi would fight us with their lives, and both sides suffered heavy losses." After speaking, Yeli Baohua sighed as if unintentionally: "You are not the county lord now, there is some news you don't know, I came to your Dayu to negotiate peace with Beiyi." ”
"What does it matter to me and Chongqing when you two countries talk about peace?"
"Of course, I can't trust the other party, so I can only find a third country to witness it." Yeli Baohua hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled amorously: "Sister, don't be afraid, we are not antagonistic now." ”
Zhong Shuyu: ...... Do you think I'm a fool.
The boss brought a bowl of wontons, the boiling water vapor came up, and fifteen wontons floated in the white broth, and sprinkled with green onions, coriander and shrimp skin, and the appetite of the people watching was moving.
Yeli Baohua picked up a spoon and scooped up a wonton, and put it to his mouth to blow cold: "It's still your Dayu's wontons are authentic, and our wontons in Xirong always feel that they don't have this taste." ”
Zhong Zhiyu ignored her.
Qin Bairui ignored her either.
Yeli Baohua smiled indifferently: "I have long wanted to see my sister, but it was only after I arrived in Dayu that I learned that you have been deprived of the status of the county lord." ”
"If you want me to say, you Dayu really look down on people, and there is a rule that women can't be officials, otherwise with my sister's talent, she will definitely rise to the top."
Zhong Zhiyu's heart moved, and he seemed to understand a little bit what Yeli Baohua was doing when he came to him.
"He Emperor Zhao is not rare to you, I am rare, if my sister is willing to take refuge in our Xirong, I will definitely give you generous treatment."
Qin Bairui sneered: "After talking for a long time, it turned out to be a digger at the foot of the wall." ”
Zhong Zhiyu also declined lightly: "Thank you Mrs. Yeli, but I just rescued the princess by luck, and I have no talent." ”
Yeli Baohua swallowed another wonton, put down the spoon and said with some hatred: "Who told you about rescuing the princess, I mean the painter!" ”
Zhong Zhuyu was stunned for a moment, remembering the painting he made for her, it turned out that she was so satisfied?
"I won't force you, I'm going to stay in Lin'an for a while anyway, you can think about it." Yeli Baohua waved his sleeves, with a hint of urgency, and seemed to be confident of Zhong Zhiyu's final answer.
Qin Bairui frowned and was about to refuse for Zhong Zhuyu, but he felt Zhong Zhuyu pull his sleeve, so he reluctantly swallowed back the words that rushed to his throat, and glared at her incredulously: Do you really have to think about it?
Zhong Xiyu also replied with his eyes: Of course not, let's go back and say.
So as soon as Qin Bairui returned to the Zhong Mansion, he shouted: "Zhong Zhuyu, what do you think, do you still have to consider this kind of thing?" ”
Zhong Zhuyu personally poured a cup of cold white water for Qin Bairui: "Of course not, I just think this matter is very strange, and I want to go back and investigate again, when they fought with us in Xirong, they fought directly for several years, this time they invaded the grassland, and they had to negotiate peace after only a few months, is it too rash?" ”
Qin Bairui nodded again and again when he heard this, and asked, "So what does this have to do with you not directly refusing?" ”
"I'm thinking about taking advantage of these days to see what bad ideas they have, and my vague attitude may be useful."
Qin Bairui continued to nod his head again and again, as if he was convinced, and then asked, "Even if they have a bad idea, what does it have to do with you?" ”
Zhong Shuyu was choked by his question, and his heart was a little depressed.
He's right, he's just a grass farmer now, and it's not his turn to worry about this kind of thing at all.
But she was not reconciled.
So he found a sentence from his few book bags, and hesitated: "Protection... Those who protect the world, the cheapness and responsibility of the husband? ”
Qin Bairui plucked his ears: "I don't understand." ”
