"Sister, the king is training a new army this time, but he wants to attack Chu?"

Gou Jian asked suspiciously.

Queen Ji Qi shook her head, glanced at Gou Jian meaningfully, and said slowly: "Shallow, this matter is confidential, and there are very few people who know the purpose of the king's military training. ”

"It is estimated that Sun Wu, Wu Zixu and Fan Li know, I don't know, and I won't inquire. Sister also has to advise you, what the king doesn't want others to know, it's best to ask less. ”

"Yes. The younger brother remembered. ”

was warned by Ji Ko, and Gou Jian hurriedly corrected his feelings.

Although Ji Ko prefers his younger brother Goujian, he is not without a bottom line to help him.

As Qingji's pillow person, Queen Ji Qi understands Qingji's character.

So what to do and what not to do, Ji Ko knows it.

She knew that Qingji had always been guarding against Gou Jian, but she felt that Gou Jian was a talent and wanted to use it.

Therefore, Queen Ji Qi spared no effort to recommend Gou Jian in front of Qingji and say good things for Gou Jian.

It is undeniable that Queen Ji Qi's approach is selfish, but it can also dispel some doubts about Qingji.

"Shallow, go inside with Sister A. Sister makes tea for you by herself, this honeysuckle tea can be described as the king's favorite! ”

Queen Ji Qi Yanran smiled and said, "You can drink the honeysuckle tea brewed by Sister A, you are blessed." ”

"Little brother, this is staining the light."

Gou Jian said with a smile like a spring wind.

I can drink the tea I love to drink!

Gou Jian secretly pondered.

From beginning to end, he was using his own sister Ji Ko.

However, Gou Jian did not feel any guilt.

Because Ji Ko is his sister, she used to be the princess of Yue Kingdom!

No wonder others say that the water spilled by the married daughter is difficult to collect!

Now, Ji Ko has only one identity, that is, the queen of Wu and the wife of Wu Wang Qingji!

Ji Ko should no longer think of the hatred of the Yue country.

Thinking of this, Gou Jian couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart.

Thinking of his father Yunchang's dying words, he did not forget the hatred of destroying the country and killing his father, but can Gou Jian really do it?

Even if Ji Ko can trust him unreservedly, what about Qingji?

Qingji has been secretly guarding against hooks like thieves.

Moreover, Queen Ji Qi is completely ignorant of Gou Jian's ambitions, if she knows that Gou Jian has not forgotten the hatred of the past, and has been thinking about killing Qingji, subverting the country of Wu, and restoring the country of Yue, can she still help Gou Jian like this?

No way!

Ji Ko loves Qingji deeply, and also regards Wu as his own country, and it is absolutely impossible for Gou Jian to approve of this.

is afraid that Gou Jian will say what he thinks in his heart, Ji Ko may strike first and poison Gou Jian first......

"The king has arrived—"

Just when Ji Ko and Gou Jian were drinking tea and catching up on the old days, after dealing with the celebration of daily government affairs, they entered the Jiaofang Hall step by step.

"Chen Goujian see the king! The king is omnipotent! ”

Gou Jian hurriedly stood up, knelt down towards Qingji, who was walking towards him, and then kowtowed.

"Gou Jian, don't be polite, hurry up."

"Thank you, King!"

In front of Qingji, Gou Jian has always been cautious and very humble.

In fact, as a courtier, there is no need for Gou Jian to kneel and kowtow to Qingji, so he pays homage, but Gou Jian is his own practice, and Qingji is not good to force.

Qingji immediately sat next to Queen Ji Qi.

"The king, the concubine made your favorite honeysuckle tea on weekdays, please taste it."

Ji Ko picked up the teapot and poured it on top of the teacup.

Wu Guo's habit of drinking tea actually started with Wu Wang Qingji.

In the past, whether it was the south or the Central Plains, the nobles were not popular to drink tea.

However, since the reputation of Daqing Ji's love of tea was launched, people all over the world rushed to follow suit, causing a trend of tea drinking.

"Well, it tastes good. Queen, the tea you brew is delicious, and it is very much to the appetite of the widow! ”

Qingji is full of praise.

Immediately, Qingji saw Gou Jian, who was still standing on the side, owing half of his body, low eyebrows, and said, "Gou Jian, sit." Today, you and I don't have to have many courtesies from kings and ministers, just talk about old things. ”

"Thank you, King!"

Gou Jian sat down in a regular manner, and his eyes did not dare to look directly at Qingji.

Queen Ji Qi, who was on the side, couldn't help but sigh secretly when she saw Gou Jian so humble and cowering in front of Qingji.

Qingji always scares Gou Jian like this, how can he not let the latter live a short life?

You must know that people who are too cautious and scheming generally do not live long!

After drinking a cup of tea, Qingji set his eyes on Gou Jian's body, and said with a smile: "Gou Jian, how do you feel about following the army to conquer Lingnan this time?" ”

"The king, the minister thinks that the six counties of Lingnan are located in a remote area, but the Yue people in the land are unruly and unruly, and they do not obey the king, and my southern expedition army has many casualties in the process of conquering the barbarians......"

These words said by Gou Jian are not nutritious, they are all scene words, and Qing Ji doesn't like to hear them.

So, Qingji seemed to say casually: "Gou Jian, you can return to Jinling this time and be promoted to the general of the Tiger Ben, and you should also thank the queen." ”

"It was the queen who spoke many times by the widow's side and recommended to the widow, and the widow promoted you exceptionally. Otherwise, with your qualifications, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do it. ”

As soon as the words fell, Qingji kept watching Gou Jian, but unfortunately Gou Jian kept hunching over, as if he had rickets, and said to himself: "The minister can have today, it is all the kindness of the king, and the love of the queen!" ”

"Gou Jian, Wu Zixu has served as the imperial historian, and the three dukes and nine kings of my Wu State still lack a captain. Do you have the ideal candidate in mind? ”

Qingji is still further testing Goujian.

This made the queen Ji Qi on the side very uncomfortable.

After all, I was caught between my husband and brother!

Gou Jian didn't think much about it, and immediately replied: "King, the minister doesn't dare to be specialized." There are many famous generals in my Wu country, and there are not a few people who can live in the guard. ”

"The widow wants you to be the captain of the guard, are you willing?"

"Don't dare!"

Gou Jian suddenly said: "The king, the minister is young, his qualifications are still shallow, and his military exploits are not enough for generals such as Meng Ben, Gongsun Xiong, Xu Menchao, and Zhanru, and they are not competent. ”

"Ambition is not about being old or young. Gou Jian, the widow is optimistic about you. ”

Qingji glanced at Gou Jian thoughtfully, and then said with a smile: "The widow heard that you are very brave in the army, and you must take the lead in every battle, even fierce generals like Gongsun Xiong and Xu Menchao are ashamed of themselves. ”

"Exactly. The widow is busy with state affairs on weekdays, neglecting to practice martial arts, and today he has nothing to do, how about practicing you and the widow's martial arts? ”

"This ......"

Gou Jian couldn't help but hesitate for a while.

Qingji stood up by himself, stretched his muscles, and said, "The widow will take the first step and wait for you outside." ”

"No."

For Qingji's order, Gou Jian did not dare to have any disobedience.
