Although Lin Mo had not followed Su Shi for a long time, he knew that Gongzi was a master who was not afraid of heaven and earth, whether it was before or now.

So he never expected to see a look of fear on Childe's face.

After experiencing battlefield battles and facing life and death dilemmas, Lin Mo can be sure that Gongzi is really scared.

He could even see Childe's shadow trembling slightly in the moonlight.

Although Lin Mo didn't know what Gongzi was afraid of, the thing that could make Gongzi feel scared must not be a trivial matter, so he couldn't help but feel nervous, and even his breathing became extremely slow.

I don't know how long it has passed, Su Shi took a deep breath, looked up at Lin Mo, and said slowly: "Can you get in touch with the people outside the General's Mansion?" ”

"Yes." Lin Mo immediately replied affirmatively: "Zhang Ao is worried about the son, so there have been scouts outside the General's Mansion all the time. ”

"You immediately send a message to the people outside, and ask Zhang Ao to tell Princess Pingle that she will find a way to meet with me in the past two days no matter what."

"Yes." Lin Mo replied, "I'll do it immediately."

The next day, although Su Shi got up early, he was in a state of malaise, and even after exercising, his face was no longer as rosy as before, and even a little pale.

And he didn't seem to have much appetite, he just ate a few bites of breakfast in a hurry, and then sat in the pavilion in a daze.

Everyone in the General's Mansion seemed to be aware of Childe's abnormality, so everyone was very careful, and the atmosphere in the General's Mansion suddenly became tense.

Just after Shen Shi, Su Shi sat on the stone bench, his hands stroking his forehead, and his thumb kept rubbing his temples.

At this time, Lin Mo suddenly ran over in a hurry, came to Su Shi's side, and called softly, "Childe." ”

Su Shi looked up at him blankly, Lin Mo showed a hint of joy on his face, and said, "The scout outside the mansion just now replied with news, and the princess is already on her way to the general's mansion." ”

Su Shi perked up: "Really? ”

Seeing Lin Mo nodding affirmatively, Su Shi was happy at first, but then he was in a daze, because there were many things he hadn't thought of how to say to Zhou Jin, but now the situation was critical, and it had reached the point where he had to say it.

Zhou Jin also knew that Su Shi was looking for her at this time, and something extremely important must have happened, so after getting the news, he immediately entered the palace to ask for an order, and then came to the general's mansion non-stop.

When she just walked into the General's Mansion and suddenly looked at Su, her heart suddenly beat so fast, but when she saw Su Shi's face clearly, her mood also became nervous.

Su Shi's face was not only a little haggard, but also extremely dignified, and even with a hint of fear.

"What happened?" Zhou Jin stood in place and asked hurriedly.

Su Shi shook his head slightly: "Then let's talk about the study." ”

When the two came to the study, Su Shi looked at Lin Mo, and Lin Mo immediately said, "Please rest assured." ”

As soon as he entered the study, Zhou Jin couldn't wait to ask, "You are in such a hurry to find me, is something happening?" ”

Su Shi motioned for her to sit down first, but at this time, Zhou Jin was so anxious, how could she sit down. Su Shi had no choice but to follow her, then thought about it and said, "Presumably Master Kong has already told you about our speculation." ”

Zhou Jin nodded: "As soon as Master Kong left the General's Mansion, he came to the Qianqiu Quality Depot and told us in detail about the process of his meeting with you. Speaking of this, her mood seemed to be much more relaxed, but her face showed displeasure: "I can't imagine that my father and emperor will even hide it from us." ”

"The fewer people who know the strategy, the better, if we know His Majesty's strategy in advance, our performance will not be so natural, and once it falls into the eyes of those who have a heart, the other party may not take the bait."

Zhou Jin suddenly whispered: "Do you think my father's plan will succeed?" ”

Su Shi's fingers suddenly tapped lightly on the desk, and he was silent for a long time before he sighed: "What I'm worried about now is not whether Your Majesty's plan is effective, but why Your Majesty is in a hurry to use this plan." ”

Zhou Jin looked at Su Shi inexplicably, because his words were indeed very incomprehensible.

Su Shi explained: "The reason why Your Majesty wants to hand over the Qianqiu Firm to you is because you know that it has a greater role in your hands, and now it has shown its power. ”

Zhou Jin suddenly blushed and said in a low voice: "If it weren't for Miss Qin Nan and Sister Xiaolan, I really don't know what to do." ”

Su Shi turned a deaf ear to her words, and continued to mutter: "Your Majesty wants to deal with Pei Hyun, Qianqiu Merchant is the sharpest knife, Your Majesty should let this knife exert its maximum power before attacking Pei Hyun, then it will get twice the result with half the effort." But now that the knife has just come out of its sheath, His Majesty is in a hurry to make a move, and it seems that he is in a hurry. ”

Zhou Jin couldn't help but nod when he heard this: "When my father mentioned Pei Hyun in front of the two royal brothers that night, I already sensed that something was wrong, but at that time I thought that my father was angry, so I didn't think much about it. ”

"Regarding Pei Xun, what is the attitude of King Qi and King Zhao now?"

Zhou Jin sighed: "They are all tracking down Pei Xun's origin now, but the results are not great, so far, all they know is the information provided to them by Gonggong Hu." However, they seem to be only suspicious of the letter, after all, everything Pei Hyun has no real evidence, and it is difficult to win people's trust based on his words. ”

Su Shi said slowly: "Whether the King of Qi and the King of Zhao believe it, or doubt it, Your Majesty's words will leave a thorn in their hearts. And over time, the thorn gets bigger and bigger. Therefore, His Majesty chose to make Pei Hyun public, the purpose is to let the other party do it as soon as possible. ”

Zhou Jin was puzzled: "Is there a problem with this?" ”

Su Shi suddenly became a little hesitant, he thought for a long time before sighing: "There is no problem in doing this, I actually wanted to force the other party to make a move as soon as possible, because as long as the other party's plan is disrupted, there will be mistakes and omissions in the plan." ”

The more Zhou Jin listened, the more confused he became: "Then why did my father do this, you seem to be worried?" ”

"As I said, my concern is not the plan itself, but why Your Majesty is so eager."

Zhou Jin still couldn't understand what he meant, and looked at him blankly.

Su Shi sighed: "Wu An, the old housekeeper of the General's Mansion, is sixty-eight years old this year, and I drank wine with him all night last night, because he will be ready to go back to the countryside to retire in a few months." ”

Zhou Jin looked at Su Shi in amazement, because she couldn't figure out what Steward Wu had to do with what they were talking about.

Su Shi didn't look at her, and continued: "Steward Wu knows his body well and knows that his time is short, so he bought a few rooms in his hometown as early as last year, ready to spend the few days left with peace of mind. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Jin's face suddenly changed greatly, and a frightened look appeared on her pretty face.
