Chapter 573: General Heaven and Earth 27
Shi Qing didn't expect Chu Qi to say this, took the time to react for a while, slowly curled his eyebrows and said, "Ah...... Good. β
The next day, Chu Qi wanted to take her out of the house for the first time.
Shi Qing thought that Chu Qi was going to take her to some good place, but she came to the first teahouse in person and asked Xiao Er to serve the snacks and tea according to the menu.
ββ¦β¦β
Shi Qing said truthfully: "General, if you order so much, we can't finish eating." β
Chu Qi lowered his eyes and tasted tea, refusing to look at her, and said slowly: "Then let Xiaoman take it back and distribute it to the people in the house." β
Even if Chu Qi had an expressionless face, it was extremely pleasing to the eye.
Shi Qing propped up his chin, stared at the person in front of him, and said slowly: "Okay." β
β¦
Shi Qing came to the first teahouse for more than ten consecutive days to check in.
Finally, one day, wait for the eyeliner of the Great Xia Guild to contact her.
Shi Qing made an excuse and broke Xiaoman.
The man was dressed in coarse cloth clothes, dressed very ordinary, and led the way in front, "Princess, please come here." β
Shi Qing followed him out from behind the teahouse and into an inn.
Open the door.
There were about a dozen people inside, and the person sitting in the center of the square table was an old man with a gray beard, with a carved wooden crutch on his shoulder, looking very prestigious.
According to the memory of the original owner, Shi Qing knew him.
This is the core patriarch in the Great Xia Guild - Elder Yuan Heng.
The previous hunting and assassination, as well as all the important decisions of the Great Xia Guild, were all made by Elder Yuan Heng.
The original owner is generally equivalent to a nominal leader and has no real power.
On some important occasions, it has to be used as a vase to help Elder Yuan Heng stabilize the hearts of these followers of the previous dynasty.
After discovering the original owner's compassion, Elder Yuan Heng severely reprimanded her, accusing her of forgetting the hatred of her family and country and being too cowardly.
Seeing Shi Qing standing here in a dignified manner, Elder Yuan Heng's face didn't look very happy, but the first Xingshi asked, "Why did the princess appear in the hunting ground that day?" β
Shi Qing did not shy away from replying: "The only remaining loyal soldiers in my Great Xia have gone, why can't I go as a princess of a country?" Behind them, what luck is there in Great Xia. β
This refers to Sang's words of scolding Huai, which made Elder Yuanheng so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick.
"Princessβ"
Elder Yuan Heng slammed the wooden crutch to the ground and coughed fiercely, "You are the princess of Great Xia!" It is our only hope for the restoration of the Great Xia, how can we take such an unauthorized risk! β
ββ¦β¦β
Shi Qing was silent.
Shi Qing didn't think that what Elder Yuan Heng did was wrong, after all, he was for the restoration of Great Xia, and Shi Qing was not interested in this now.
They have different positions.
"That's fine."
Elder Yuan Heng sighed and said in a deep voice: "I heard that the princess was blessed by misfortune, and she also gained Chu Qi's trust because of this, which is also a good thing. Chu Qi This person is the confidant general of the Great Zhou, if we can get rid of him, we will definitely be able to cut off the strength of the Great Zhou, and then we can take advantage of the chaos to rise up. β
Shi Qing started his spirits, and was about to hear how Elder Yuan Heng planned to assassinate Chu Qi, when he heard Elder Yuan Heng suddenly change the topic.
"This is a matter of long-term consideration. The most important thing at the moment is to rescue Shu Yang. β
Elder Yuan Heng looked at Shi Qing and said, "Shu Yang is no longer detained in the camp in the southern suburbs. The eyeliner who was guarding in front of Chu Qi's mansion reported that at night, he saw a person who looked very much like Shu Yang from a carriage into the mansion. β
"The general's palace is heavily guarded inside and outside, and it is impossible to find out whether the news is true."
