The small table next to Shi Yiguang was originally for Ban'er who moved over and lived with him, but it was naturally occupied by Xiong Chao.
Ban'er, who was still standing in the room, looked at Xiong Chao, who was sitting behind his desk unconsciously, with a dark face, and wanted to reprimand with his mouth open.
"You go out and get your own, and let the Jing people pick it up in the house." Shi Yiguang looked at Ban'er and said with a comforting tone.
Ban'er flattened his mouth, turned his head and glanced at Xiong Chao, then turned around and walked towards the outside of the house, put on his foot clothes, took a broom, and walked towards the yard.
The Jingren carried a wooden basin with water in it, and a handkerchief was placed on the edge of the basin.
He walked to the door of the house, first knelt down and straightened the shoes that Xiong Chao threw out, and then walked into the house, knelt down and lowered his body to wipe the place where Xiong Chao had just walked.
"Who are you?" The voice from outside the courtyard came halfway, and with the boredom that had not yet dissipated, the tone became more and more unpleasant.
Talking to people I've seen is also angry.
Xiong Chao, who was sitting in the room, heard the voice, and his whole body straightened up a little: "Hurry up, sit down, sit down, my father is here!" โ
Then he hurriedly said to Jing Ren, who had already wiped the almost: "Put the basin in the corner, come and sit next to me!" โ
Shi Yiguang turned his head to look at the panicked Xiong Chao, pursed his lips and turned his head, and slowly put down his bent legs.
"Below is Xiong Shen from Ling Yin's Mansion, who came to meet Mr. Bingwen." Ling Yin Zixi's voice sounded outside, with full respect.
Hearing this, Xiong Chao was stunned, pulling his neck and tilting his head to look out of the house.
Is this his father? The voice is his father, but the tone is ...... Xiong Chao tilted his head and looked at Shi Yiguang, who was already sitting down next to him, looking at the scroll with an indifferent face.
"Do you have anything to do with Mr.?" Ban'er stood in the courtyard with a broom, and didn't open the door, but only looked at the people outside the courtyard with impatience and asked.
As soon as he heard this tone, the people outside the courtyard had not yet spoken, and Xiong Chao in the house raised his eyebrows. He glared at the door of the house, turned his head to look at Shi Yiguang on the side, and lowered his voice and scolded: "Hey! What kind of slave are you?! To my father to speak so impulsively! โ
Is this impatience to live?
A slave can rush like that.
Shi Yiguang glanced at Xiong Chao, then turned his head and lowered his head to look at the scroll in front of him.
Xiong Chao was stunned for a moment, and then his voice became more urgent, he wanted to say that when his father came to him, his attitude should be better, and he asked him to go back if he couldn't tell.
Before Xiong Chao's words could speak, Zixi's still respectful voice came from outside the courtyard.
"Come down and ask sir, and hope for a good word."
As soon as this voice came out, Xiong Chao was stunned. When did his father have such a good temper? Such a good temper for a slave.
The sound of footsteps gradually rose, and after a while, Bingwen's head appeared at the door of the house, he was still holding a broom in his hand, looked at Shi Yiguang in the house, and said, "There is a guy named Xiong Shen who is looking for you." โ
Xiong Chao listened to Ban'er's words, the corners of his mouth twitched, wanting to reprimand, and thinking that his father was still outside the courtyard, he raised his eyes and glared at Ban'er viciously.
Ban'er looked at Shi Yiguang and didn't look at Xiong Chao, so he didn't notice Xiong Chao glaring at him.
"Please come in." Shi Yiguang said to the half-man standing at the door of the house.
As he spoke, he shifted his body and sat a little more upright.
Half answered, walked into the courtyard, and welcomed the people outside the courtyard.
Zixi took Fengcun, walked to the door of the house, took off his clothes, and walked into the house, his eyes first fell on Xiong Chao beside Shi Yiguang, and his eyes froze.
When Xiong Chao saw Zixi, he stood up and bowed to Zixi who walked in.
"Father." Xiong Chao bowed to Zixi and saluted dignifiedly.
Zixi didn't reply, he only stood still in the room, hugged Shi Yiguang with both hands, and made a more dignified salute than the bear dynasty.
"Mr. Bingwen."
Xiong Chao, who was standing on the side, looked at it, and his eyes almost fell off.
Shi Yiguang stood up, sat down and saluted Zixi, and then stretched out his finger and pointed to the futon on the opposite side of the table: "My lord, please sit." โ
Zixi sat down in accordance with Shi Yiguang's movements, and then raised his hand to press Xiong Chao, who was still standing next to him, saluting him.
Xiong Chao signaled, and also sat down with Zi Xixun.
"I came to the door rashly, and I hope that Mr. will understand." Zi Xixun sat down and first made a polite look at Shi Yiguang.
Shi Yiguang took the tea tripod on the table, poured a cup of tea, handed it to Zixi, and then replied: "I don't know what the adults have to teach each other when they come here?" โ
Zixi took the tea cup handed by Shi Yiguang, first took a sip with his wide sleeves covered, and then put it down.
"My lord, in the spring, the Duke of Qi Jing and the Wei Ling Guild crossed the Yellow River and attacked the Jin Kingdom." Zixi sat opposite Shi Yiguang and spoke, with a seriousness that Shi Yiguang rarely saw.
Shi Yiguang pursed his lips, sat opposite Zixi, and didn't answer when he finished speaking.
Zixi thought that Mr. Bingwen on the other side would ask a question or two, but he didn't want him to listen to his words, so he just sat in his position, looked at himself calmly, and waited for him to continue.
If it weren't for the anticipation of the world's affairs, who would have such an indifferent and calm attitude.
Thinking of this, Zixi's attitude became more and more respectful: "A few years ago, I listened to my husband's words and persuaded the king to break his promise and not borrow the promised soldier. I wanted to come to the Jin Kingdom because I thought of Qi Wei's strategy, so I came to borrow troops from me, Chu. Speaking of which, it is thanks to Mr.'s guidance that the Chu State was able to avoid this disruption. Speaking of this, Zixi paused, looked at Shi Yiguang, and bowed his hand again.
Jin Chu has always been the opponent. However, in the past two years, they have suffered heavy losses, and the state of Chu was almost wiped out by the state of Wu in a war. No one dared to fight in the Jin Kingdom, but the three families of Han, Zhao, and Wei in China had civil strife, and their power was getting bigger and bigger, suppressing the Duke of Jin. The two countries have their own damages, and the two sides have also shown an attitude of wanting to stop and make friends. Therefore, Jin Qing Zhao Ying came to envoy Chu State, and the King of Chu agreed to their request.
Shi Yiguang raised his hand, looked at the table for a while, and said calmly and indifferently: "Your Excellency doesn't have to be like this. โ
Zixi followed Shi Yiguang's false support, knelt up, looked at her, and shook his head: "If it weren't for Mr., Chu State would be in a difficult predicament now." โ
The Three Kingdoms of Qi Wei and Jin are great powers, especially Qi and Jin. And the two countries of Qi and Wei will be in the land of weeping, in the territory of the Lu country. The two countries will meet in the city of Lu with a large army, and no one will believe that Lu is not involved.
If the State of Chu is involved in the State of Jin, it will be on the opposite side of Qi Luwei.
Shi Yiguang looked at Zixi who was talking in front of him, thought about it, but still didn't answer, only raised his hand, picked up the tea tripod holding tea on the side, and poured a full cup for Zixi.
"The sky is changeable, the time is chaotic, King Zhao is a virtuous monarch, and the adults and the doctors of the Chu State are also virtuous people, I was entrusted to the adults by Mr. Sun, but before Mr. left, he also asked me to take care of the adults more." Shi Yiguang said, put down the tea ding, and looked at Zixi sitting in front of him.
She paused and said slowly, "You don't have to be too humble. โ
