Chapter 723 War
Nian Su said softly: "If Miss Cui goes to Jinyang Palace tomorrow, I'm afraid Miss Qin still won't want to come out to see the girl. It's better to make plans in a few days."
Cui Yan thought Nian Su could come up with ideas, but Nian Su's words poured cold water on her.
At that moment, her face turned cold: "I asked you to come up with ideas instead of saying these useless words."
"My servant is incompetent." Nian Su replied in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.
Does Cui Yan really think she is her slave? She is disdainful of Cui Yan in her heart, but she doesn't show it on her face.
Cui Yan frowned slightly when she saw Nian Su's indifferent appearance, "The Queen Mother said that you could do things, so I kept you by my side. If you are useless, why should I keep you?"
"That's what the girl said. If the girl feels that the slave can't help the girl, just change someone else." Nian Su responded calmly.
"You?!" Cui Yan didn't expect that Nian Su would dare to talk to her like this, and her face turned red.
Nian Su said sternly: "Girl, please calm down. I am not looking down on the girl just now, but I am afraid that I have missed the girl's important event. Why don't you ask the Queen Mother for Sister Nian Yun? Sister Nian Yun has always been in the Queen Mother's favor. For the girl's future, I will
Maybe you will be willing to lend Sister Nianyun to the girl."
Only then did Cui Yan realize that he had wrongly blamed Nian Su.
"How can I ask for the Queen Mother's aunt's maid? That's all, I didn't mean to blame you just now. You just need to serve me well." Cui Yan immediately changed his mind.
Nian Su bowed her head in response, a sarcastic coldness flashed in her eyes. Just now she had retreated in order to advance, and Cui Yan easily changed her mind.
Compared to Qin Zhao, Cui Yan is still a little too young.
Judging from the two encounters with Qin Zhao, Cui Yan was obviously at a disadvantage and was manipulated by Qin Zhao.
Wu Xiurong, on the other hand, usually went to greet Qin Zhao on time, but was absent today. He thought he knew Cui Yan had gone to Jinyang Palace, so he didn't show up today. This was a deliberate avoidance.
Wu Xiurong is truly smart and knows the principles of what should be done and what should be done, but Cui Yan thinks that he is the queen's destiny. He does not realize that he is nothing now, and he still thinks that he is right.
In Jinyang Palace, Baoping confirmed that Cui Yan was gone, and then went inside to report the matter to Qin Zhao.
After hearing this, Qin Zhao smiled and said, "I will wait until noon to leave, but I am still a little patient."
"If Miss Cui comes back tomorrow, do you want to see her?" Baoping asked curiously.
"If nothing unexpected happens, Cui Yan probably won't come tomorrow?" Qin Zhao thought thoughtfully.
After all, with the strategist Nian Su here, Cui Yan wouldn't come back to hit the wall tomorrow. At least he would have to wait for a few days before fighting again.
Wu Xirou didn't show up today. She guessed that Cui Yan would be in trouble when she came to Jinyang Palace, so she didn't come to join in the fun.
The truly smart person is Wu Xirou. She doesn't join in the fun, knows how to advance and retreat, and the most important thing is to judge the situation. If she were a man, she would almost fall in love with Wu Xirou like this.
As Qin Zhao expected, Cui Yan did not show up the next day, but Wu Xirou came.
Qin Zhao was not surprised at all by this result. Wu Xirou is a very smart person. As long as such a person gives her a chance, she will definitely seize it.
That night, Baoyu received important news and told Qin Zhao immediately.
"The Da Yuezhi intends to attack Da Qi?" Qin Zhao frowned upon hearing this.
"I don't know if this news is true," Baoyu said.
Qin Zhao counted the days, and it was still some time before Seth was sent back to the Yueshi Kingdom. If Seth wanted to avenge his broken leg, he might provoke a war between the two countries.
The problem is that in the previous life, Seth started the war when he became the king of the Yueshi. In this life, Seth did not become the king. How could he suddenly provoke a dispute between the two countries?
"Continue to pay attention to this matter." Qin Zhao pondered for a moment and then said: "If you have first-hand news, tell me immediately."
Baoyu responded quickly.
Qin Zhao didn't sleep well that night. When Baoyu was on duty at night, he heard some noise coming from the bed and regretted that he shouldn't have mentioned that matter more.
Even if the Da Yueshi wanted to attack Da Qi, telling the girl this would not solve the problem.
What's more, with the emperor on the battlefield, what kind of trouble can Dayuezhi cause?
Qin Zhao did not sleep well. As soon as she fell asleep, she would dream about Xiao Ce's death in the previous life.
She was not present when Xiao Ce died. She only knew that there was a mole in the army, and someone drugged Xiao Ce so that he could not exert force on the battlefield and eventually died on the battlefield.
That year, Xiao Ce had just turned thirty...
Qin Zhao got up early that day and was absent-minded while having breakfast. Baoyu blamed himself when he saw this: "It's all my fault that the slave's talkativeness affected the girl's mood."
If she hadn't mentioned it last night, the girl wouldn't have been able to sleep all night, and now she didn't even eat much for breakfast, which was not helpful for miscarriage.
When Qin Zhao saw Baoyu blaming himself, he cheered up and said, "You are not wrong. Don't blame yourself. I just have some things that I can't figure out."
In the previous life, Xiao Ce did not go on a military expedition until he was thirty years old and died in battle. But in this life, Xiao Ce was only twenty years old. It was impossible that he would go on a personal expedition this year. She thought there might be something wrong with the plot.
She couldn't taste the food and really had no appetite, so she said to Baoyu: "Go and inquire about the situation again today. Remember to tell me if there is any progress."
"Yes, girl." Although Baoyu agreed, he was thinking that he shouldn't tell the girl even if there was a situation.
When Wu Xirou came to greet Qin Zhao, she found that Qin Zhao looked a little haggard, as if he had not had a good rest at night.
"Sister, didn't you sleep well last night?" She looked at Qin Zhao carefully and saw the black and blue under Qin Zhao's eyes, which made her even more sure of her suspicion.
In her opinion, Qin Zhao is the person who will never wrong her the least, and he cares least about the opinions of the outside world. He is usually big-hearted and has nothing to worry about. Things that can make Qin Zhao sleepless must not be trivial.
"Yes, I have nightmares every time I close my eyes. I haven't experienced this state of insomnia for a long time." Qin Zhaoqiang cheered up and said.
"Is sister worried? If sister doesn't mind, maybe you can tell me." Wu Xirou's voice was soft.
Qin Zhao sighed lightly: "I heard that the Dayue clan wanted to attack Daqi, but I don't know if this is true."
Wu Xirou was stunned for a moment, then said: "Sister, are you worried about this matter?"
"I can't say I'm upset, I just don't understand how the Yuezhi Kingdom got the confidence to attack Daqi." Qin Zhao thought to himself that if Xiao Ce hadn't fallen into the trap of a traitor in his previous life, Xiao Ce would not have died unjustly.
Even so, the Da Qi army later repelled the Da Yuezhi invasion.
"I have also heard about this matter. It turns out that my sister is worried about this matter. Speaking of which, my brother is General Guangwei who is guarding Shazhou. My brother is brave and good at fighting. I believe he can guard Shazhou well." Wu Xirou said softly.
Qin Zhao was a little surprised when he heard this: "Your brother is the general guarding Shazhou?"
Yes, she knew that there was indeed a general named Wu among the generals in Shazhou in her previous life. Later, when Xiao Ce died in battle, it was that general Wu who led all the soldiers to repel Da Yuezhi's attack in one fell swoop.
It's just that she had never met Wu Xirou in her previous life, so naturally she couldn't connect the general named Wu with Wu Xirou.
