The man known as Lao Wang still seems to be puzzled: "The inheritance of the title of the former marquis of Shajiang town has never been as particular as the heir. In Shajiang City, no one knows that Hou Ye is amorous by nature, and he doesn't know how many women have been outside, and how many kinds have been left. I heard that there are many young and promising officials in the court now, who are the illegitimate children of the Hou Ye, and this arrangement is to beat the two princes. Hou Ye arranged like this, maybe he really meant to straighten these illegitimate children?"

The others seemed to have heard something funny, and they laughed out loud: "Lao Wang, you are really confused, if the Hou Ye really wants to pass on the throne to the illegitimate son, how can he hide his identity? Even if there are really many Hou Ye's illegitimate children in the court, and they have no backing, what can they do to fight with the two sons?"

Everyone nodded, and the discussion became more intense, so the old king only smiled: "Then as you said, the eldest prince is really likely to inherit the unification." ”

The rest of the people began to push their glasses and change their glasses, getting more and more drunk, while Lao Wang just drank silently on the sidelines, occasionally smiling and responding to the others. Suo Pingzhang stood up suddenly, put the wine glass on the table, walked to their table, put a silver tael on the table, and beckoned to the shopkeeper: "The wine on this table is counted on my head." ”

As he spoke, he patted the old king on the shoulder, ignoring the inexplicability on his face, and said with a smile: "With mediocre people, it is not enough." ”

"Huh?" Several people around them who were full of drunkenness raised their heads as if they were awake from a dream, their eyes were drunk, but Suo Pingzhang had already walked out with a smile.

Suo Pingzhang's table was full of empty wine jugs, but he didn't see him drunk. Although his face was flushed, his steps were steady, and the wind was blowing under his feet, but his feet were extremely fast, all the way to the south of the city.

The south of the city is the most prosperous area of Shajiang City, and there are bustling crowds all the way, Suo Pingzhang doesn't seem to like crowded crowds, so he tries to avoid the most crowded and lively streets, and makes a few detours before returning to his mansion.

As soon as he entered, he motioned for the guards to close the door. He took a few more steps inside before he looked back at the eaves and said with a smile: "The girl followed me all the way, and she didn't show up?"

There was silence in the mansion for a moment, and several subordinates looked at each other, only to see Liu Qingxue suddenly flash out from behind the eaves on the west side.

"So you've already discovered me. ”

"The girl seems to be very leisurely and elegant, she has been following Suo for the past few days, but what have you found?"

Liu Qingxue sat on the eaves with her sword in her arms, thought for a moment, and then said seriously: "You have a good amount of wine." ”

Suo Pingzhang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "The girl is really good at laughing, but this is the truth!" He seemed to hear some funny joke, and he couldn't stand up with a straight laugh.

Liu Qingxue ignored him and asked, "Since you have already discovered me, why don't you just plan me, but expose me and lure me out?"

"Hehe......" Suo Pingzhang's laughter gradually stopped, and he still said to Liu Qingxue with a smile: "Suo Mou is for the good of the girl." Where Suo is going next, I am afraid it will be a little difficult for the girl not to be noticed. So I deliberately went back here first and told the girl. ”

"Where are you going?"

"Qingshuiju, the residence of the lady of the mayor of Shajiang City. Suo Pingzhang said with a smile: "It is said that the eldest lady grew up with the Plain Wolf since she was a child, so in the garden where she lived, she specially raised a Plain Wolf, but the chain was added to the body, so as not to hurt people with ferocity. ”

"Living with the Desert Wolf?" Liu Qingxue frowned slightly.

"The Steppenwolf has an outstanding sense of smell, and the girl must know it. Although the girl does not apply rouge, she has her own body fragrance, and if she wants to hide from the nose of the Steppenwolf, I am afraid that the girl will not be able to do it. ”

"Can you see even if I don't apply rouge?"

Suo Pingzhang said with a smile: "The girl has outstanding appearance and outstanding temperament, and it is inevitable that Suo Mou will look at it twice." His gaze revolved around Liu Qingxue presumptuously.

Liu Qingxue's expression was as cold as ice, her disgusted eyes flashed, and she turned slightly sideways to avoid Suo Pingzhang's gaze, but she was secretly shocked in her heart. Counting Liu Qingxue and Suo Pingzhang have only met a few times, most of them are in a hurry, only in the past few days she has secretly followed for a little longer, but Suo Pingzhang has observed so carefully, and even noticed the so-called "body fragrance", it is difficult to say when he noticed him, but let himself follow all the way without demolition. She had been drooping her eyelids, but at this time she suddenly raised her head with a sharp gaze: "General Suo is not simple, you are so kind, for my good, or don't you want them to find out about this game of chess you are secretly playing?"

Suo Pingzhang retracted his glancing gaze, the light in his eyes flickered, and he bowed slightly: "The girl is so smart, can't you understand?"

Liu Qingxue stopped talking, stood up and patted the dust on her skirt, cast an unpredictable gaze at Suo Pingzhang one last time, and then jumped behind the eaves and disappeared from Suo Pingzhang's sight.

"Go and get my uniform. Suo Pingzhang stretched his waist and walked towards the room, while commanding a nearby subordinate.

The subordinate looked at the eaves where Liu Qingxue had disappeared, followed behind Suo Pingzhang with some hesitation, and asked with an embarrassed face: "General, this ......?"

Suo Pingzhang waved his hand and said lightly: "She won't follow, you just have to go." ”

......

Suo Pingzhang was dressed in official uniform, stood in front of the door of Qingshui Residence, smiled and nodded to one of the attendants who came out to report, and then walked in slowly. Wu Qingwei seemed to have been waiting for a long time, sitting in the main seat of Qingshui Residence, looking at Suo Pingzhang who walked in the door with a gloomy face. Di Hui was dressed in regular clothes, sitting on the seat next to Wu Qingwei, his robe reaching the ground, and he frowned slightly.

Suo Pingzhang smiled and saluted: "Weichen has seen the eldest lady and the second son. ”

"I thought you wouldn't dare come. Wu Qingwei sneered.

"Where is the eldest lady, since the eldest lady has summoned her, how dare Weichen shirk it?"

"You deliberately revealed to me the matter of the Desert Wolf Camp's Eastern Expedition, but you secretly asked the Hou Ye to delegate this matter to Di Yunhao's kid, what is your intention?"

Suo Pingzhang smiled: "This is all for the sake of the eldest lady." ”

Wu Qingwei said in a weird manner: "For my sake? That's really embarrassing for General Suo, but before Di Yunhao set out on the expedition, he specially asked you to go along, you will never say that he is talking nonsense casually, you have nothing to do with him, right?"

"The eldest lady's eyes are like torches, she should have noticed it, Wei Chen, who was indeed the eldest prince before. Suo Pingzhang replied calmly.

Di Hui stood up with a "pout", his burly figure stood in front of Suo Pingzhang, like a hill, and glared angrily: "Since you are his person, why are you running here to act like you? Do you really think I dare not touch you?"

"Sit down!" Wu Qingwei shouted, and Di Hui glared at Suo Pingzhang again before sitting down next to Wu Qingwei again. Wu Qingwei frowned and asked, "What do you mean by 'before'?"

Suo Pingzhang replied: "Naturally, it is said that the eldest prince has lost power over the years, and he is not the opponent of the second son and the eldest lady, and the micro-minister is willing to return to the eldest lady and the second son." ”

"Then why did you give the credit of the Eastern Crusade to Di Yunhao?"

"Weichen thought that this Eastern Crusade was just to help Yunzhou and sweep away the enemies in the east, not to mention that Hou Ye knew the courage of the Desert Wolf Battalion, even if he returned triumphantly, Hou Ye would not pay too much attention to it. On the contrary, during the Eastern Crusade, if something went wrong, the eldest prince would lose more than he gained. ”

Wu Qingwei raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you want to ...... on the way to the Eastern Crusade?"

Suo Pingzhang smiled: "Along the way, there is the desert wolf camp close to the eldest lady on the left, and the Yunzhou Yunhai Iron Cavalry on the right. However, if the people in Yunzhou do it, it's fine, if it's the Desert Wolf Camp, it will inevitably leave people with a handle and make trouble for the eldest lady, and it is not cost-effective to do it. ”

Wu Qingwei thought quickly in her mind, and then snorted: "You are thoughtful." ”

Therefore, what Weichen considered was to take this opportunity to separate the eldest prince. The eastern border is a long way, and it is still a long time to come and go. During these days, it just so happened that the second prince was also in the city of Shajiang, so why not make good use of it and eradicate the power of the eldest prince? When he comes back, even if he has such a small military feat, it will only be a lonely hand. ”

Wu Qingwei frowned as if she was thinking, and then she suddenly thought of something: "No, Di Yunhao wanted to take you to the east that day but got the approval of Lord Hou, so if you really went east with him that day, wouldn't your arrangement be in vain?"

Suo Pingzhang smiled slightly: "That's naturally because, Weichen knows that Hou Ye will not let Weichen go with him." ”

Wu Qingwei's phoenix eyes widened, and she said in disbelief: "The incident of the abandoned temple that day was also designed by you?

She suddenly felt that Suo Pingzhang was more dangerous than he looked on the surface, looked at Suo Pingzhang, and said word by word: "What role do you play in these things?"

Suo Pingzhang smiled and didn't answer, as if he felt that this was all he said, but said with a smile: "What happens next, presumably Mrs. Chang knows, Weichen doesn't talk much, if there is anything useful to Weichen in the future, I hope that Mrs. Chang and the second son will ignore the past suspicions and let Weichen help them." ”

"What do you want from us?" Di Hui asked with a frown.

"What Wei Chen asked for, I mentioned it to the eldest lady before. ”

Di Hui looked at Wu Qingwei and wanted to ask, but Wu Qingwei didn't give him a chance to ask, waved his hand and said, "Got it, you can step back first." ”

Suo Pingzhang retreated as he said, and Di Hui asked, "Mother, what does he want to do?"

Wu Qingwei shook her head and said, "For some reason, I always feel that this person is very dangerous, and his words are not credible. However, before knocking down Di Yunhao, he was a helper. ”

She looked at Suo Pingzhang's back, and her eyes gradually sharpened.
