"This ....." Chu Liuyan glanced at Xie Cui'e, intending to ask her meaning. Xie Cui'e shook her head vigorously.

Chu Liuyan understood and said: "Marshal, I think it's better to let Miss Xie stay in the army, first, I can be a companion with the marshal's wife and Biyi's sister, and second, let her live alone in the countryside, I can't always rest assured." Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Chu Liuyan was full of enthusiasm, so he had to agree.

Early in the morning of the second day, Chu Liuyan had just gotten up, and Xie Cui'e came to visit. Her legs were always lame, and when Chu Liuyan saw it, he felt a little sorry in his heart. Xie Cui'e swept away her hostility towards Chu Liuyan in the past, and said earnestly to Chu Liuyan: "Miss Chu, in the past, I listened to Liu Yiyi's swagger and misunderstood you, so please don't take it to heart and don't worry about me." ”

Chu Liuyan recalled what happened in Qingtian, Zhejiang, and only felt like a dream. She smiled: "There is no need to mention the past. Miss Xie, you saved me before, and then I saved you once, so let's take it as a tie. No matter what happened before, as long as you get along well in the future. ”

"Hmm." Xie Cui'e combed the hair in front of her forehead, and said a little shyly: "Miss Chu, in fact, I came to you today to ask for your help over something." ”

Chu Liuyan nodded and said, "Miss Xie, if you have anything, just say it." As long as I Chu Liuyan can help, I will definitely live up to your trust. ”

Xie Cui'e's face was slightly crimson, she fiddled with the pigtails on the sides of her cheeks, and said, "Miss Chu, we don't have to be polite in the future, you call me Cui'e, I'll call you Liuyan." Actually, I came to you, and I didn't have anything to do, I just wanted to ask if you were very familiar with General Xu Daxu? ”

When Chu Liuyan saw Xie Cui'e's expression, he already understood it slightly in his heart, but he ...... She finally nodded and said, "Yes." I know Brother Xu very well, and he treats me as if he is my own sister. ”

"That's great! I don't know if it's fate, I remember when I saved you, you told me that your name was Xu Da. Now that I see the real Xu Da, I feel ...... I felt that the first time I saw him, I liked him in my heart. Smoke, do you think this is providential? I was thinking, can you help me stay with General Xu? ”

Chu Liuyan is very smart, how could she not understand Xu Da's thoughts? It's just that Liu Yiyi's matter hit her too hard, and second, it was indeed her disguised as a man who deceived Xie Cui'e's feelings. Therefore, she hesitated for a long time, and finally smiled reluctantly: "I'll try to ...... as much as I can"

Xie Cui'e's face was as delicate as a blooming lotus, and she had never been so happy since she was lame. She took Chu Liuyan's hand and said, "Liuyan, if I can marry Xu Da as his wife one day, I will definitely thank you for this affection, we will always be the best sisters." It's just that my legs are like this, I don't know if General Xu will ....."

"No, it won't!" Before Xie Cui'e's words were finished, Chu Liuyan had already said: "Brother Xu is definitely not that kind of person!" ”

Xie Cui'e was relieved, and said a little shyly: "Since this is the case, I am relieved." Flowing smoke, I'll leave this matter to you. ”

Finally sent Xie Cui'e away, Chu Liuyan sat down in front of the bed, quietly sorting out his thoughts. At this time, someone knocked on the door, and Chu Liuyan thought that Xie Cui'e had gone and returned, so he opened the door and said, "Cui'e, why are you back again?" ”

"Did Xie Cui'e just come here?" The person who came looked at Chu Liuyan with a smile in his eyes.

Chu Liuyan looked up and saw that it was Zhu Yuanzhang. She smiled and nodded, and invited the marshal in.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat down, seemingly inadvertently, and seemed to say intentionally: "Liuyan girl, what happened to your trip to Zhejiang, Yuchun has already told me in 1510. This is all because Ben Shuai is not good, and he sent you to invite Liu Bowen, so that so many things have happened. ”

Chu Liuyan poured tea, brought it to Zhu Yuanzhang, and said, "How can the marshal be blamed for this matter?" Now that it's all in the past, there's no need to rehash it. ”

"Hmm. It's just that I see that Xie Cui'e treats you like this, and you can repay your grievances with virtue, it's always not easy. By the way, what did Xie Cui'e do when she came to you early in the morning, did she embarrass you again? She's only saved you once, you've saved her many times. I can't take care of her for the rest of my life. Zhu Yuanzhang persuaded Chu Liuyan.

Chu Liuyan smiled and said, "No." She's here to apologize to me, and ......"

"What else? You can't even hide it from your big brother Zhu, right? Since Zhu Yuanzhang commanded the army and became a marshal, Chu Liuyan felt that the distance between the two was getting farther and farther away, and it was almost a pure relationship between the marshal and his subordinates. And Zhu Yuanzhang's personality is also very different from when he was called Zhu Chongba before. In the past, he was just a thug who laughed and scolded, cheated and drank and robbed everywhere, but now, he has become a thoughtful, resolute, and discerning generalissimo.

Chu Liuyan has always felt that he is becoming more and more estranged from Zhu Yuanzhang. However, Zhu Yuanzhang's sentence of "Brother Zhu" reminded Chu Liuyan of a lot of previous things. She didn't hide it from Zhu Yuanzhang, and told Zhu Yuanzhang what Xie Cui'e begged for: "Cui'e asked me to help her and help her be with Brother Xu." ”

"Xie Cui'e likes Tiande?" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said loudly: "Since ancient times, beauties have been matched with heroes, so good, very good!" Although Xie Cui'e is disabled, she is as beautiful as a flower, and after she is an official eunuch, she is from a famous family, no matter what, she can be regarded as worthy of heavenly virtue! In this way, it can really be regarded as a splendid fate! ”

"Marshal, do you also think that Brother Xu and Miss Xie are good together?" Chu Liuyan asked a little unconfidently.

"Hmm!" Zhu Yuanzhang replied without hesitation: "Heroes since ancient times, are you sad to be a beauty?" People always have to start a family. This Miss Xie, if she can become Tiande's virtuous helper, then in the future, Tiande and you and I will fight the world, and you and I will be able to have no worries! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said this, not without selfishness. In his heart, he originally had affection for Chu Liuyan, and every time he saw Xu Da and Chu Liuyan together, he always felt that it was not a taste in his heart. Now, hearing Chu Liuyan say this, he naturally agrees with Chu Liuyan helping Xu Da and Xie Cui'e, so that Xu Da has Xie Cui'e, and the distance between him and Chu Liuyan is closer.

And Chu Liuyan, she didn't expect Zhu Yuanzhang to think the same way, she naturally couldn't know Zhu Yuanzhang's selfishness, and when she heard Zhu Yuanzhang say this, she silently responded.

At noon, Xu Da came to Chu Liuyan under the pretext of excuse. He also knew what happened in Zhejiang. He also understood that when he encountered such a thing, Chu Liuyan was naturally depressed in his heart, so he deliberately wanted to persuade Chu Liuyan. Unexpectedly, Chu Liuyan avoided him for some reason.

In the next few days, Chu Liuyan avoided Xu Da under the pretext of avoiding him, and Xu Da couldn't help but be a little puzzled. On the contrary, Xie Cui'e often came to Xu Da when he had nothing to do, which made Xu Da a little at a loss. On this day, Chu Liuyan practiced riding and shooting on the school field, and Xu Da happened to be there, even if he wanted to avoid it, he couldn't avoid it.
