Chapter 58: Make it clear
After all, the emperor is far away, and even if they want to declare, they seem to have no way to declare, right?
After all, there is no one who can sanction this Du Jiangling.
Xu Xi thought that they had offended this Du Shanju today, judging from Du Jiangling's style of conniving at his daughter Du Shanju like this, this Du Jiangling must be a person who protects his shortcomings, but I don't know, will this Du Jiangling come to the door?
"You asked Qianling before to know what we came here for, but now, do you still want to know?" Pei Huai looked at Xu Xi just sitting there drinking tea, and really didn't say a word anymore, and couldn't help but ask again.
When Xu Xi heard Pei Huai say this, he just nodded absentmindedly and responded: "Well, you said." ”
"In fact, the purpose of our visit is also very simple, before the Jinghu Palace investigated the news, saying that someone here colluded with the Tartars in the north, and wanted to steal the defense map of the frontier city and hand it over to the Tartars over there, if there is a war here one day, and the other party has such a defense map, in the future, it will be a matter of time before the border city is lost.
Frontier City is an extremely important city for us, and it is also the most powerful place in defense, once it is broken, the consequences will be unimaginable, and when the time comes, the entire country may be quickly attacked, so the defense map of this frontier city is very important, and it must not be known by others. Pei Huai said.
In fact, these Jinghu Palaces walked around the territory of these countries, not only to establish their own power, but also to find out information and achieve the purpose of monitoring some behaviors of various countries and their own countries.
Therefore, when the Jinghu Palace detective heard such a news, Pei Huai came in person.
"Oh." Xu Xi nodded, indicating that he understood.
"This defense map was designed by the seat himself." Pei Huai said again.
"That's good, if this defense map leaks out at that time, wouldn't it be okay to design another one?" Xu Xi said.
"Where is it so easy to design a defense map? And these soldiers are needed to drill, train, change defenses, all of which take a lot of time to do, if it is suddenly attacked, this side has not been designed, or has not been properly arranged, what should it do? Pei Huai said.
"The frontier city will surely be destroyed." Xu Xi said.
"That's right, Frontier City will definitely be destroyed, in that case, where will there be time to make countermeasures?" Pei Huai nodded and said.
Hearing Pei Huai say these words, Xu Xi couldn't help but nodded, and didn't say anything more, this kind of thing is generally a military matter, she is just a person who walks the rivers and lakes, these things don't need to know, just know a little about the purpose of their trip.
For the rest, if you don't know, you don't know. Xu Xi thought so, but Pei Huai saw that Xu Xi was not interested in this at all, and couldn't help but say, "You don't seem to be interested in this." ”
"This is a major military matter, I'm a little girl, don't go in and participate, besides, I walked the rivers and lakes, and this time I came out just to follow the palace master of Jinghu Palace, but I didn't follow any national teacher to come out to investigate some major national affairs, so this matter really has nothing to do with me, in this case, why should I be interested in these things?" Xu Xi looked at Pei Huai and said.
also knows that he is the current national teacher, if he doesn't know, he naturally just thinks that he is the palace master of Jinghu Palace, where can he think of any major national affairs?
Pei Huai heard Xu Xi say this, looked at her for a while, and then didn't talk about this topic anymore, just asked: "Then you don't ask, who am I more suspicious of now?" ”
"Du Jiangling?" Xu Xi asked.
"I believe that Du Jiangling is not such a person, although this person is not my confidant, but since he will be the person recommended by the Taibao of the dynasty, there will definitely be no mistake, although he connived at his daughter to act like this, but this is just a small matter, after all, so far, no one has made trouble, so this matter is a bit of immorality at most, even if the people above know, it is just a slight punishment.
However, the person who is suspicious in this seat is also related to this Du Jiangling, after all, if it were not for the confidant who had something to do with Du Jiangling, he would definitely not be able to get the defense map of this Xinjiang city, so the object of this suspicion was the most trusted person around Du Jiangling, a person named Wan Jiajie. Pei Huai said.
"Oh." Xu Xi nodded and said.
"What were you thinking about? It seems like I felt a little absent-minded before. After Pei Huai and Xu Xi finished talking about these things, they suddenly changed the topic and jumped to this, in this regard, Xu Xi couldn't help but be a little unable to keep up with the rhythm of his thoughts.
How did you jump so fast? Isn't this just talking about the purpose of this visit, why did you jump to her side all of a sudden?
"Oh, I actually didn't think about anything, I was just thinking, judging from the style and temperament of this Du Shanju's father who connived at his daughter to act like this, this Du Jiangling must be a person who protects his shortcomings. So today, we met her daughter Du Shanju on this street, and beat her, just thinking, will Du Jiangling, who is protecting her short, send someone to come to the door to ask for an explanation? Xu Xi said.
"I didn't want anything to say if I was molested, so why did he come to the door?" Pei Huai said.
"So what, you are a beautiful man who has no arms and legs, no hair or less meat, but Du Shanju was really kicked out by Qianling, this Du Shanju must have fallen miserably enough, so in this way, why can't he come to the door to ask for an explanation?" Xu Xi said.
"If that's really the case, then it's good to let Qianling fight out together." Pei Huai said domineeringly.
"Your current identity is not the national teacher of the current dynasty, if you do this, how can you investigate this matter?" Xu Xi asked.
"Madame, are you worried about being a husband?" Pei Huai raised his eyebrows and asked.
Xu Xi rolled his eyes, worried about him? How is this possible? It's just that I just thought about it, and besides, who is his wife?
It was okay to pretend to be a newlywed couple in order to hide people's ears before, but now the whole study is just the two of them, I really don't know why this Pei Huai would pop up such a sentence.
"Master Guoshi, please respect yourself." Xu Xi said.
"Since this seat is no longer the master of the national teacher, but the owner of this mansion, Master Helian, you are my wife again, so what's wrong with calling you Mrs. in this seat? You'll have to get used to it, and you'll have to save yourself from revealing the stuffing when the time comes. Pei Huai said.
I have to say that this reason is really excellent. It made Xu Xi a little speechless for a while.
"But for the two of us now, it's better not to say this, after all, we have nothing to do with each other in the first place, and if you are like this, it will really make outsiders misunderstand." Xu Xi said.
In fact, they are even a little worse than confidants and friends, at most they are just ordinary friends, and it is better to keep a little distance.
lest she be too close, but let her not understand the relationship between them.
Xu Xi wants to maintain a certain relationship with Pei Huai, but Pei Huai doesn't seem to think like this.
In short, what kind of attitude Xu Xi has, this may only be clear to Pei Huai himself.
Perhaps, sometimes, Pei Huai himself doesn't understand it a little.
For Xu Xi, he is actually a little more special.
"Who do you think we're going to misunderstand? A thousand tombs? Pei Huai looked at Xu Xi and asked.
Hearing what Pei Huai said, Xu Xi suddenly couldn't help but fall silent, and she didn't quite understand why Pei Huai would mind what he said that night so much.
Could it be that what he said that night was purely coaxing Tang Qianling?
Actually, for Xu Xi, what she said that night was normal, the liking she said was originally out of her sister's liking for her younger brother, but why did this come to Pei Huai as if it had become an insurmountable hurdle?
Did he care about her liking for what Tang Qianling said, or did he care that she didn't answer the question he asked that night?
Like it or not, anyway, Xu Xi hasn't thought about it now, and probably won't think like this in the future.
If you can really no longer be lonely in this life, you can find someone to spend your life with, then Xu Xi also hopes that this kind of relationship can go with the flow, instead of wishful thinking, or she doesn't like it, but she wants people to force people to say that she likes each other, at least now, she hasn't liked this national teacher.
Although no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, for Pei Huai, she just wants to stay away.
But this national teacher is always convulsive occasionally, and always likes to get too close to her, she doesn't understand, she's just a maid.
And maybe for them, it's still a suspicious maid.
She still didn't believe that Pei Huai hadn't asked people to investigate her before, and on the way to Shuocheng, didn't she still test her several times? Why have you let down your guard now?
Xu Xi doesn't think it's because he is too cute, or too beautiful to make the other party let down his guard.
If that's the case, then it's not Xu Xi, but the fox spirit.
In short, she definitely doesn't have such a ability to make people let down their guard and open up to her.
Therefore, for Pei Huai's question, in fact, Xu Xi didn't really want to answer, she was afraid that anyone would misunderstand, not just Tang Qianling, even if it was a stranger, she didn't want the other party to think that her relationship with Pei Huai was very close.
Probably just a matter of her personal principles, and none of this has anything to do with it.
