Chapter 45: Speaking
"Thank you!" Xiahou Yu smiled at Xiao Huan and walked back to the bluestone-paved path.
"King Langyu went back to his fiefdom?" She asked Xiao Huan.
Xiao Huan didn't know how to answer well.
Both are smart people. Why Xiahou Youfu appeared in Jiankang and why he went back, they were very clear to each other.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Go back." After all, he is the younger brother of the eldest princess. ”
And he is one of the only two remaining younger brothers.
Xiahou Yu thought of the events of his previous life, remembered Xiahou Youdao's death, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: Could it be that the last true son of heaven must be Xiahou blessed? Will Xiahou Youyi be a short-lived emperor because of her intervention?
Her mood suddenly became a little delicate.
Xiao Huan watched the emotions rolling in her eyes and didn't bother.
Since she had something to say to him, she would have to say it sooner or later, and he just had to wait in peace.
The two didn't say anything all the way and sat down in the gazebo in the back garden.
The weather was still a little cold in the early summer morning, and Du Hui had already ordered someone to put a soft cushion on the stone bench, place the refreshments, and wait under the flower tree with a few maids.
Xiahou Yu took a sip of tea, looked at Xiao Huan and said, "I don't know what the governor plans to do in the future?" ”
That's what it means to write off the past.
Inexplicably, Xiao Huan breathed a sigh of relief.
But then he was a little irritated by his emotions.
Xiahou Yu ruined his good deeds, but she was unable to clean up the mess, not only did she make Lu Yuan vigilant, staring at him, and making him stumble, but she also had an attitude that she wanted to stay out of the matter and had nothing to do with me, and played a good hand of cards into a bad card. What is there for him to be nervous about? What is there to forgive?
Xiao Huan's heart was quickly and hard as iron, and he smiled indifferently: "I was originally going to take General Lu by surprise, but now it seems that it will not work." Some things just have to be done slowly. Let's stay in Jiankang City for a few days. ”
When she asked him before, he answered the same thing.
To say it is to say it is to not say it.
It can be seen that Xiao Huan is still quite wary of her.
However, this is also normal.
If she didn't have Xiao Huan's embrace in her previous life, she would not have been so straightforward with Xiao Huan.
Xiahou Yu said: "I heard my uncle say in the past that when the governor followed Lord Yin to conquer Shu, he made many military exploits, I don't know if the governor is interested in telling me a thing or two?" ”
Xiao Huan was very surprised.
From the perspective of the imperial court, the war of Shu is a shame that the whole country has failed to do so, and even Yin Lin's children are reluctant to mention him.
Xiahou Yu is interested in this?
Xiao Huan stood up on guard and looked at Xiahou Yu intently.
He knew that as long as he restrained his emotions and looked at others coldly, there were few people who would not be uneasy, and if they were not at a loss, their eyes would flicker and they would not dare to look at him.
Xiahou Yu didn't care.
In her previous life, Xiao Huan looked at her with such eyes a lot, and she was still a little scared at first, but later found out that Xiao Huan was just looking at her with this kind of eyes, but there was never any specific harm. Gradually, she grew bold, and when others looked at her like this, she didn't feel anything at all.
This brought her mind back to her previous life.
In her previous life, she was very nervous every time she met Lu Yuan, others said that Lu Yuan was kind to their sister and brother, but she always felt that Lu Yuan's gaze at their sister and brother was not warm, Lu Yuan didn't like their sister and brother, even if she was arched to the throne, it was not because she thought they were good, but because her brother should inherit the throne according to the law, so there was less tossing about the court society.
But after being reborn, she no longer had the same timidity towards Lu Yuan as she had in her previous life.
She always thought that she had the experience of her previous life and saw the collapse of Lu Yuan, but now, another thought rose in her heart.
Maybe she was scared a lot by Xiao Huan and had already been trained by Xiao Huan......
Xiahou Yu pulled out of his memories in time, took another sip of tea, and then said slowly: "The imperial court has been living in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, coupled with the failure of the Shu attack, Emperor Wen of Northern Liang crossed Beiyu several times, and the imperial court did not repel the Northern Lianghu people in time, whether it was the ministers of the court or the squires and the common people, they were not very willing to go on the northern expedition of the imperial court, and the governor had thought about it carefully. ”
Xiao Huan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and looked at Xiahou Yu for the first time, with a solemn expression.
"I know!" He said, "So I didn't stop Lu Yuan's Northern Expedition. I'm not optimistic about Lu Huai. ”
Xiahou Yu also knew that Lu Huai was a straw bag, but he couldn't stand the death of the Beiliang Emperor in October this year, Gu Xia's daughter and the infant prince's grandson were killed, Gu Xia was angry and supported the fourth son of the Beiliang Emperor and the Beiliang prince to compete for the throne, but was beheaded by the Beiliang prince, and the Beiliang was in chaos.
In case Lu Huai seized this opportunity like Xiao Huan in his previous life, Lu Yuan's reputation would not only rise to a higher level, but the Lu family could also take this opportunity to grasp all the forces of the imperial court in their hands, and if they wanted to break through from Lu Yuan's hands, they might have to shed a layer of skin.
It wasn't what she wanted.
But such a thing as rebirth, even if she told Xiao Huan, Xiao Huan had to believe her.
Xiahou Yu had no choice but to remind Xiao Huan: "Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." I think the governor should not only keep an eye on the Lu family, but also send someone to Beiliang to inquire about the news over there. ”
Xiao Huan frowned and said, "Did the eldest princess hear any news?" ”
Just like their Xiao family, although they are no longer in the circle of the top magnates of the dynasty, they still have a closer relationship with the surviving families of the old Wu Si than with the imperial court, and they often communicate with each other.
is like Gu Xia, his mother is a girl from the old Wu family, and Xiao Huan's mother is surnamed Wu ......
Xiahou Yu was a little undecided, and Xiao Huan didn't understand what she meant.
Her family is the daughter of the old Wu family, and she is the only concubine, she didn't know about this at this time in her previous life. After she moved to the manor, she heard others say that the Xiao family's potters would burn porcelain, and only the Xiao family's potters had such skills. The porcelain fired by their family is more expensive than gold. She was very curious, once Xiao Xing came to pick her up to attend the Xiao family's wedding banquet, she asked casually, Xiao Xing thought she wanted to ask a few potters to help her burn porcelain, embarrassed to tell her that those potters were Wu's companions, and Wu was not a shrewd person at first glance, she was suspicious, and when she found out the origin of Wu, she vaguely understood something.
Xiao Huan didn't think she knew the origin of the Wu family, right?
The reason why she was able to find some clues in her previous life was that in addition to the fact that she was Xiao Huan's wife, Xiao Huan's power had reached the point where she didn't need to hide it.
But in this life, he is just a pavilion marquis who has not formed a climate.
The Lu family has gained a lot of benefits from the "Four Surnames Chaowu", and has always been taboo for others to talk about it.
This is also an important reason why Zheng Fen chose Xiao Huan to be her concubine - without special circumstances, Lu Yuan would not use Xiao Huan.
Xiao Huan won't kill people, right?
