Chapter 285: Everyone does their own thing
Yu Wenjue put down the cup in his hand and smiled slightly.
"It's up to me whether I want to get angry or not. There's nothing wrong with it. I just don't know whether this is a question that the girl wants to ask or the Marquis Jingning wants to ask?"
Gongsun Xu Xiao Qianyi glanced sideways and frowned.
How His Highness returned to the Great Zhou Dynasty is very clear to him. If it were placed on an ordinary person, it would be a thorn in the heart.
But Your Highness, he couldn't see through it.
But this was the attitude when they first met. Even the proud son and beloved daughter of the Jingning Marquis Mansion should never be so arrogant.
Although Gongsun Xu was not angry at the same little girl, he was still somewhat dissatisfied in his heart.
Is it possible that the Jingning Hou Mansion has other plans?
Thinking of this, Gongsun Xu, who had wanted to speak out to protect the Lord, held his tongue and waited for Xiao Qianyi's answer.
How could Xiao Jingnan not understand the meaning of this question.
Immediately leaned down and bowed deeply: "My sister-in-law suddenly offended His Highness, it is really——"
Have Xiao Jingnan ever been so humble?
Xiao Qianyi stood up suddenly and grabbed his arm: "I was the one who offended His Highness. It has nothing to do with my brother, and it has nothing to do with the Jingning Hou Mansion. One person is responsible for his actions, and His Highness must punish him. Just punish me."
She puffed out her chest, and although her face was reluctant, her tone was obviously lowered.
In fact, Yuan had no intention of looking for trouble, but he only saw his mocking and sarcastic compliments.
Xiao Qianyi thought for a while, and then said: "In the battle formation, we are not tired of deceit. The way to use military force is to plan. I personally think that it is not important how the two countries win the war. Since ancient times, The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit. Those who say victory without force are always the words of the loser."
Xiao Jingnan turned his head, with a look of anger on his gentle face, "Xiao Qianyi, you. It’s so rude.”
Seeing this, Gongsun Xu finally understood that Zuo was just a little girl’s self-righteousness.
Xiao Jingnan glanced at Xiao Qianyi, feeling helpless and said: "Your Highness, my sister-in-law is just——"
"Not for the title," Yu Wenjue tilted his head to look at the window, without any expression on his face: "Just to live."
This...
Everyone was surprised and stunned. Looking at people with clear water and cold water.
I didn’t expect that he would give an answer, let alone that he would give such a statement that he was greedy for life and afraid of death.
Gongsun Xu felt very uncomfortable after hearing this. He opened his mouth to explain, but he didn't know how to explain.
Some doubts were doomed from the moment His Highness woke up.
He can explain one thing today, but will he be able to explain it one by one in the future?
But after a moment of silence, Yu Wenjue picked up a chess piece again, lowered his eyes and played with it, not caring at all.
In my eyes, there are only chess pieces and no people.
Gongsun Xu shook his head secretly. After all, he was worrying too much.
Xiao Jingnan looked at Xiao Qianyi resentfully, and Xiao Qianyi stood stiffly.
Obviously this answer was even more humiliating than what she just said, but she couldn't feel any pleasure at all, and was instead very frustrated.
It's like throwing a stone with all your strength, hoping to hit the opponent's head and bleed him, but what he didn't expect was that instead of being furious, he sank into the sea without being disturbed by the waves.
The more indifferent he is, the more bitter and mean he makes her.
Xiao Qianyi didn’t remember much about what they said after that. She only remembered that Yu Wenjue never looked at her again.
After sitting for a short time, Xiao Jingnan took Xiao Qianyi and left.
Gongsun Xu glanced at the door. When he came, he got the news that the wife of Marquis Anding of Qi State was missing. What was even more surprising was that Marquis Anding of Qi had already reconciled with his wife.
The above emperor's intention is that His Highness Prince Qi should choose a marriage. No matter what aspect he considers, Jingning Hou Mansion should be the first choice. Before coming, he thought so too, but now...
Gongsun Xu looked at the empty door and frowned slightly. "Lord Gongsun, what else can I do?"
A cold voice sounded.
Gongsun Xu was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and said seriously: "I wonder if the imperial doctor's order has informed His Highness that the emperor's time is running out?"
"Yes." Yu Wenjue raised his eyebrows slightly.
Gongsun Xu said: "Your Highness should know that in order to capture Qi as soon as possible, the emperor had no choice but to appoint Yu Wenke as the commander-in-chief of the Chinese and foreign military forces and to command the twenty-fourth army of the imperial army. Now, once the emperor - —"
He paused: "Yu Wenke will no longer have any scruples. He is so anxious to order His Highness to return to Zhou because he wants to support you to compete with him. But Yu Wenke has cultivated a lot of power over the years. There are many members of the gang, and now they have a lot of troops, and they just lack a chance to make a name for themselves.”
Yu Wenjue remained silent, how could he not know?
It’s not that there are no other candidates in the Zhou royal family, but they have been in Luoan for a long time and the relationship is complicated. There is no guarantee that he will not become the second Yu Wenke. In the end, Yu Wenjuan (chéng)’s throne is still not guaranteed.
You can choose him to be different. He has just arrived, has no foundation, and everything is completely in their hands. Even with the support of the Jingning Marquis Mansion, he will be really powerful in the future, but his life experience will always be at his mercy. A weakness.
Today they can say that he is Yu Wenjue, and in the future they can also say that he is a craftsman sent by Qi State.
Yu Wenjue raised his eyebrows: "What you can think of is a marriage with the Marquis of Jingning?"
Although there was almost a meager amount of Xiao's blood flowing in his body, Marquis Jingning would never nod his head and agree to be used by him just because of this. The Xiao family had a long-standing feud with them.
Having him here only makes the name of this grudge more real.
Everyone has his own plans.
Yuwen Jue Yun Danfeng chuckled.
The reason why Xiao Jingnan, the brother and sister, traveled so far away is just to prepare for emergencies and to decide on their names in advance...
Yu Wenjue could guess that Gongsun Xu was not surprised at all.
Gongsun Xu pondered for a moment and said: "The emperor is not just trying to win over the Marquis of Jingning. His Highness is now alone and has no backing force-"
"Master Gongsun, there is no need to elaborate. I have made a decision on this matter."
Yu Wenjue stopped looking at him and only focused on holding the chess pieces on the board.
Gongsun Xu had no choice but to bow and bow.
Yu Wenjue turned his face slightly, and Yu Chiyuan withdrew from the door and stood guard.
There was no one else in the hall and it was very quiet.
Luoan is not like Jinye. There are no cicadas chirping, and there is only dead silence in the too hot air.
After Yu Wenjue finished mentioning his son, he caught a glimpse of the secret letter on the desk.
Take out a thin piece of paper from the envelope.
On the front is a copybook, the handwriting is casual and casual, as if it was written casually in leisure time:
‘Long-term lovesickness, never forget each other, always be blessed and happy. ’
The content on the back is not long, just a few sentences.
The signature is still a kapok flower.
Yu Wenjue sat quietly for a while, opened the drawer and put away the secret letter.

After leaving the Mingguang Hall, Xiao Jingnan walked silently. Xiao Qianyi glanced at her a few times, but he didn't notice it. He just frowned and didn't know what he was thinking.
Xiao Qianyi knew that she was acting out of temper today. She took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "Brother, are you angry with me?"
Xiao Jingnan turned to look at her. So cautiously, she smiled helplessly: "If you were not the legitimate daughter of Marquis Jingning, my father and brother would love to keep you by their side -"
Xiao Qianyi paused at her feet and couldn't help but raise her voice: "So this Did you come to Luoan this time to get me engaged with that Qi traitor?”
There will be another update later~
