Chapter 45: Agreements
During the banquet, Zuo Jingning had been wondering if she knew where the book was, she looked at Lin Moran, and then at Xu Qingyou's brows, and suddenly thought that maybe she could help Xu Qingyou and make this negotiation smoother.
She took the opportunity to let the kitchen add vegetables leave the table during the banquet, and instructed Ah You beside her to tell Xu Qingyou to stay and wait for her after the meal was over, she had a few words to instruct.
Xu Qingyou was thinking about how to solve the current predicament at this time, and it was difficult to hide his sadness when he saw Jing Ning, and after a while, he was going to enter the palace to negotiate with the envoys of Qi led by Xue Shao, why did the king choose him? At first, I wanted to be a little clever and be able to hear something during this banquet, but these two generals from different camps were secretly competing with each other throughout the meal, so how could they have any chance to hear something, and now Jing Ning suddenly called him for no reason, which delayed his time a little, and he was a little anxious.
"How?" Seeing that Xu Qingyou was not sunny, Jing Ning asked slowly.
"Hey, I made a mistake, I didn't expect these two people to be so embarrassed." At this time, Xu Qingyou had no need to hide it, and his words revealed disappointment.
"Okay, look at you like this, it's still the son of the Xu family who doesn't care when the sky falls, I called you here to tell you, I may know where the book is, maybe this is an opportunity, you take advantage of it, although it is not only General Xue Shao who negotiated, but the general said that he was the one who made the decision, and it was half of the success to take him."
"Zuo Jingning, are you sure, why do you know where this book is?" Xu Qingyou couldn't believe that such a dead end was so easy to see?
"It's too late now, and I don't really understand why the book is in that person's hands, maybe it's a coincidence?" Although she said this, she was very sure in her heart, everything was just like what the general said to herself, all this was not a simple coincidence, it must be arranged for some purpose, as if the initiator had intentionally or unintentionally dragged her to the center of the incident, in this case, it was better to get out and see what was in the center of the whirlpool.
"That's great, Jing Ning as long as you can finish the book and leave the rest to me, really." Xu Qingyou's gratitude is beyond words, everything came too suddenly, how to express his gratitude? was so excited, he didn't know how to express it for a while, he rubbed Jing Ning's head with a smile on his face, Jing Ning looked at Xu Qingyou with disgust, taking advantage of his height as if he was touching a child.
Lin Moran had already seen that the two of them were hiding something about themselves, and deliberately slowed down before going out, just when he saw the scene at the end of the conversation between the two, he pondered for a while and retreated.
"Isn't that your wife, isn't it?" Xue Shao did not enter the palace first as Lin Moran imagined, but asked the attendants around him to wait for him in the same place, while he watched from behind why Lin Moran dumped him.
"Are you thinking too much?" Lin Moran didn't give him a chance to watch the play, and poked back.
"Some things, grasp it tightly, some people, it's the same, there are some regrettable examples around here, big nephew, long memory." Xue Shao put on the appearance of a junior advised by his elders, and patted Lin Moran's shoulder seriously.
Lin Moran squinted his eyes and skimmed Xue Shao's hand on his shoulder, sneered, and replied, "You find my aunt first, and then come to me to talk about seniority." ”
Xue Shao put down his hand stupidly and walked forward with him, "Seriously, you really didn't want to give Xiao'er, ah no, Lin Sa deliberately hid the book to take revenge on me, right?" After so many years, Zeng Jiang's habits have not changed, Xiao'er is Lin Sa's name in his memory, and he already knows Lin Sa's identity but still can't change his original title, some habits are unforgettable, and it is difficult to change easily.
"Why do you want a book so much, is it really that important?"
"Have you ever lost an important person, if you have lost it, you will know that any clues related to her are the only meaning of your life."
