The two sat opposite each other. Nan Yanxi took a sip from the wine glass and asked first, "Can Liu'er know martial arts?"
"I know a little bit, my father made some before!"
Tang Liu'er nodded: "It's just that at that time, Liu'er didn't know the importance of martial arts. He only wanted to have fun, so he was not proficient in it."
"Oh..." Nan Yanxi nodded: "Is Liu'er interested in finding a position in my army?"
"There are quite a few female soldiers and generals in our army. After Liu'er is gone, we can still get some exercise."
"Or... you can go to Nanhai. Now we are engaged in industrial revolution in Nanhai, and we need manpower everywhere."
"Liu'er can flex his muscles and realize his ambitions, how about that?"
"Huh?" Tang Liu'er on the side blinked and stared at Nan Yanxi suspiciously for a moment.
Then he tentatively said: "Your Highness...but what's the matter? Please just tell me!"
Seeing her say this, Nan Yanxi could only scratch her head in embarrassment: "Hey... okay..."
"Actually... I came here before Brother Xu Yan this time. I have something to ask Liu Er alone."
After a pause, Nan Yanxi looked up at her and said seriously: "Before, I promised Brother Xu Yan that I would let you meet each other after we conquer Nan Zhao."
"But... I see what brother Xu Yan means. It seems that he has no intention of going to court. He just wants to live in seclusion in the mountains with the girl."
"I wonder what you think, girl...?"
Hearing this, Tang Liuer was silent for a while and said slowly: "Actually... I really wanted to do this."
"Living in seclusion among the mountains and forests, chopping wood to feed the horses and carrying water to water the gardens, it's really a fairy-like life."
When Nan Yanxi on the side heard these words, her heart suddenly sank.
Just as he was about to say something else, Tang Liuer continued: "But...how will we live?"
A hint of fear and pain flashed through her beautiful eyes like almond kernels: "You know..."
"When I was first sold to Chunxiang House, I thought I would rather die than surrender. In order to force me, my mother sent thugs to keep an eye on me all day long."
"No matter how you beat or scold me, I'm not afraid...but the taste of hunger is so terrifying!"
"I don't want to endure hunger anymore. That feeling is really, really painful!"
Tang Liuer's eyes sparkled with crystal tears, as if she was recalling that unbearable past.
"I want to live in seclusion with him in the countryside, but I also know that he is like a child, doing whatever he wants and never thinking about the future."
"Even if I can bear it, how will my children bear it in the future?"
Nan Yanxi on the side nodded slowly: "I understand this!"
"Dreams are beautiful, but reality is cruel!"
"Two people are happy together, but firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea are also very important!"
"That's why I came to see Miss Liu'er... to see if I could persuade Xu Yan to change his mind."
"I am also interested in his ability. If he continues to serve in our army, I will not treat you two badly."
After saying that, Nan Yanxi thought for a while, calculated and said, "Would this work?"
"I think Miss Liu'er likes this place very much. I can build a manor for you so that you can live here for a long time."
"On Qinglian Mountain, I will rebuild an ordnance manufacturing bureau, with Brother Xu Yan as the manager."
"In this way, the two of you can get along day and night, which can be regarded as realizing Brother Xu's dream of taking you to live in seclusion in the countryside!"
As soon as these words came out, Tang Liuer was overjoyed and stood up directly, bowing gracefully to Nan Yanxi.
"I, thank you so much, Your Highness! Your Highness is truly a benevolent and righteous king!"
"You're welcome...hahaha..."
Both of them were overjoyed and toasted one after another.
After three drinks and five dishes, Nan Yanxi laughed and waved her hand: "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Liu'er for giving me such a talent."
"Girl and brother Xu Yan, one is talented and the other is beautiful. They are a match made in heaven."
"Is it..."
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Tang Liuer's eyes seemed to dim.
Naturally, such a reaction could not escape the eyes of Nan Yanxi. Seeing her acting like this, she couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Girl...do you still have something on your mind?"
Tang Liuer chuckled lightly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp: "Actually... when it comes to the relationship between the two of us, I rely more on Brother Xu Yan."
"Huh? Why is this?" Nan Yanxi was suddenly confused.
Tang Liuer sighed and slowly explained: "At that time, I was tortured in Chunxiang Tower, helpless, hesitant, and humiliated!"
"It was Brother Xu Yan's care and companionship that allowed me to survive those days."
"So, as long as I am with Brother Xu, I feel at ease and happy!"
"But I know that this is not love!"
Tang Liuer paused and smiled to himself: "Your Highness, do you think I am ruthless?"
"But, this is what I really want in my heart!"
"What I like is a hero like my father who is upright and can protect me behind him."
"Brother Xu is more stable, introverted, elegant and polite, but less domineering and courageous."
After hearing what Tang Liu'er said, Nan Yanxi nodded affirmatively.
She was right. Xu Yan's personality was more elegant. He was not pushy and would not do anything out of the ordinary.
For example, the last time I shot someone in Chunxiang House, I was just forced to do it.
Most of the time, he is still a submissive person.
For example, if Nan Yanxi had been in Xu Yan's position, Tang Liuer would have been redeemed by him long ago.
After all, Xu Yan at that time was a popular member of the Seven Princes faction.
As long as you bow your head to them and don't ask too much without opening your mouth, the Seventh Prince will get it done right away.
She's just an official prostitute, and it's not something that others can wave their hands to.
But Xu Yan, who went to work honestly and disciplinedly, was not moved at all by the olive branch extended by the Seventh Prince and others.
Perhaps because of his dull personality, he didn't think of this.
But for his sweetheart, he was tortured and suffered in the brothel every day.
That Yumu's brain didn't even know how to turn around, and he didn't rack his brains all day long, thinking about how to rescue people.
He was actually able to study firearms in the Ordnance Bureau without any worries.
For your sweetheart, it’s okay to just take the time to spend time with your sweetheart every evening!
Nan Yanxi really understood Tang Liuer's words quite well.
Sighing, he stood up and poured a glass of wine for Tang Liuer: "Hey...how do you say this!"
"That's how it is with people like Brother Xu. You can't deny his love for you, but such an honest person really can't do anything outstanding."
"But...this kind of person is down-to-earth."
Saying that, Nan Yanxi pointed at herself: "You are like me, you are careful, but I admit that I am a lustful playboy."
"A girl like me would be troubled if she met a woman like me everywhere!"
Maybe it was because of a rush of words, maybe because of drinking, maybe it was an unintentional complaint.
After Nan Yanxi finished speaking, Tang Liuer subconsciously said: "I'm not as good as you!"
As soon as the words came out of their mouth, both of them were stunned, and Tang Liuer's beautiful face instantly turned into a red apple.
She was extremely embarrassed and quickly covered it up: "Oh...haha...you're just kidding!"
"Your Highness... Your Highness, please don't blame me, Liu'er will punish you with a drink!"
After saying that, he quickly reached for the wine bottle, but in a panic, he was already drunk.
The wine bottle accidentally fell to the ground.
There was a "pop" sound and it fell to pieces.
The wine instantly scattered all over the floor and splashed onto the hem of Nan Yanxi's clothes.
"Yes...I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
Tang Liu'er hurriedly knelt down to wipe Nan Yanxi's face and apologized profusely.
"It doesn't matter...girl, please don't scratch your hand..."
Nan Yanxi saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to help him.
The moment the two hands touched each other, both of them quickly pulled away as if they were electrocuted.
The two subconsciously raised their heads and realized that their postures at this time were a bit indecent.
The tip of the nose is opposite to the tip of the nose, with a distance of less than two fingers.
Lip and Lip are also close at hand.
Tang Liuer's fragrant orchid-like scent, tinged with the smell of wine, hit Nan Yanxi's face.
Her pretty face instantly became extremely charming, and her eyes showed extreme panic.
However, surprisingly, Tang Liuer did not escape.
Her beautiful eyes stared straight at Nan Yanxi, Tan's mouth opened slightly, and Rulan's breath gradually became rapid.
The panic in his eyes gradually became blurry.
Why doesn’t Nan Yanxi, a veteran in flowers, understand?
Such an expression clearly told him that this flower is for you to pick.
