Huaiyu is slightly cool

"You said you didn't want to start a war, but you gave everyone the illusion of being actively preparing for it."

When the eldest princess said this, her eyes were quietly observing Zhou Huai's expression. She didn't believe that Zhou Huai had no rebellious intentions as she said.Although she had rebelled in her previous life, that was the country of her Wu family.If Zhou Huai rebelled, Jiangshan would change his surname, so she had to guard against it.

"I really don't want a war, but there are a lot of people pushing it."

The eldest princess stared coldly.Add to the flames?Then the next step is to add a yellow robe?

After Zhou Huai, who was nestled in the small temple room and was unwilling to go out, saw that the eldest princess remained silent, she even waved the document in her hand, deliberately annoyed her: "For example, this Mo Ziqi is one of them. See if he sent an invitation for credit." The letterhead is really beautiful and full of flowers, do you want to take a look?"

That's gorgeous rhetoric!The eldest princess was a little speechless.And she didn't need to look at those things to know that the euphemistic and tortuous diplomatic words that were embellished were just a bunch of nonsense without mistakes to Zhou Huai.Although it is decent and pleasant to listen to, it is just a perfunctory response to those long-winded speeches.

For example, the official statement of the war between the Northwest and the Qiang State is: Qiang State sent people to assassinate Zhou Huai, the saint of Jing State.In a word: the generals in the Northwest said to the actions of the Qiang State, "Which is tolerable and which is not tolerable".

And the diplomatic letter that Zhaoguo sent troops to help was even more aboveboard and upright.With a friendly face, he told everyone that Zhao Kingdom and Jing Kingdom had peacefully established diplomatic relations for a long time, and they had already formed an unbreakable alliance of utter sincerity.But now that allies are being bullied, it is not only to express 'condemnation', but also to help.To put it simply: the people of Zhaoguo, who value love and righteousness, will never stand idly by when their brotherly country is bullied.

I don't know, but I really thought the relationship between Jingguo and Zhaoguo was so sincere and pure.But Zhou Huai didn't care about these, just glanced at it casually, took out his private seal and stamped it on.If it weren't for the fact that there is an extra 'Zhou Huai' appearing in the eyes of the world, for fear that 'interested people' would take the opportunity to make trouble if they found out, the letter paper from Zhao Kingdom would not have been sent to Zhou Huai.

Therefore, although everyone knows exactly why the war is fought, in terms of diplomatic and public relations, each insists on his own words and claims justice, and then quotes scriptures and classics, begins to fight with words, and puts on a wonderful drama after another.

Seeing that the eldest princess was silent, Zhou Huai still didn't give up: "It's very exciting, don't you really want to watch it?"

It is said that it is a letter of invitation for credit, so there is nothing else to read.The eldest princess snorted softly, and turned her head proudly.

Zhou Huai no longer forced the eldest princess to come to her side to accompany her to read the beautiful but empty articles on it, but read down the stack of letters on the table in the room by himself.

The charcoal fire was burning in the room, and the Eldest Princess, who was in better condition, felt a little bored, went to open the window and looked at it for a while, before saying: "Your people are fighting again."

"What about me? I'm alone now, and I'm still being chased for my life."

The eldest princess directly dismantled the stage: "If you are so comfortable, it is called running for your life. What are Zhou Hao and Liao Qiwei called?"

Zhou Huai blinked, and pretended to be innocent and said shameless words: "I am really innocent. Don't look at me now that I have food, drink, clothes, and a car. But I am now Alone outside, I don’t know how many people come down and want to kill me, and if my whereabouts are leaked, I don’t know if I can get back with my life.”

"Away alone?" The eldest princess pointed at Zhou Huai and said unceremoniously: "You can push it cleanly! Then you dare to swear, without your hidden guards around here, you can't secretly contact those rebellious officials and thieves in Wuliang City? "

"Since you say so, then I can only admit it. Even if I lead troops and horses to conquer the country now, what can you do to me?"

"You have become the uncrowned king of the Northwest, why are you still not satisfied, and you are willing to give up only if you want to stir up chaos in the world?"

"When will the world be peaceful?"

"Since that's the case, then why bother to pretend and ask me to marry you?! It's not easy to be so sticky. It's better to imprison me directly, and then attack the capital with an army, so that I can become king and hegemony. I admire your sincerity!"

The eldest princess, who was trapped in this ancient temple in the mountain for nearly five days, lost control of her emotions.

"Is that considered true temperament?" Zhou Huai wondered: "I thought that a bad person like me with integrity and a bottom line had true temperament and no pretensions. After all, when I was in the world in my previous life, it was because I was particular about it that I didn't become a petty thief. , but became a famous big bandit."

When Zhou Huai said this, he was still a little complacent, and his voice couldn't help but become louder: "In this life, if you have no integrity and no bottom line, do you think your chastity can be kept until now?" After Zhou Huai finished speaking, his eyes were still on the eldest princess. I swept it back and forth.

"Huh?!" The eldest princess was taken aback for a moment, and when she realized it, she shouted angrily, "What am I talking to you shameless bastard, it's a waste of effort."

After the eldest princess finished speaking, she flicked her sleeves and went out.Zhou Huai hurriedly got up, picked up a hooded green calyx plum embroidered cloak, and followed.

"Where are you going in such a hurry when you are not fully recovered?" Zhou Huai asked while putting on a cloak for her.

"Annoyed." After the eldest princess answered, she went straight to the main hall where the five Buddhas were enshrined.He kowtowed three times respectfully, took the stick again, and shook out a stick.

Zhou Huai stood by and watched her every move quietly, until the eldest princess handed her the stick, and then she was stunned.

"Do you want to be together?" The eldest princess has recovered her usual calmness when there are outsiders.

Zhou Huai smiled, without a lottery holder, he stood on the spot and took out a lottery from it, but he didn't read the content of the lottery, so he accompanied the eldest princess to put the lottery aside, closed his eyes and knocked on the wooden fish The old monk asked for a solution.

The old monk with a wrinkled face like a candelabra stretched out his hand and took the two sticks tremblingly. He tried his best to look closely for a while, then looked up at the two of them carefully back and forth, but he didn't speak for a long time.

The eldest princess looked at the old monk quietly, but did not urge him.Zhou Huai was not interested in drawing lots and divination, so he said directly: "Pretending to be a ghost! When I came here, I saw that there were a few plum trees in bloom under the porch. I'll pick the plum trees for you, and wait for you outside by the way."

After Zhou Huai finished speaking, he went out without waiting for the eldest princess to speak.

She was wearing deerskin boots, and she was stepping on ankle-deep snow. The warm winter sun shone from her body and gradually disappeared, so she didn't hear the conversation in the hall.

"What does the benefactor ask for?"

"future."

The old monk spoke slowly with a calm expression: "The lottery drawn by the benefactor is the top lottery, and everything can be done as one wishes, and the future will be priceless."

Joy flashed in the eldest princess's eyes, but she asked again: "Where's the other one?"

"I don't know what that little benefactor is asking for?"

"She... the future, no, let's ask about the marriage."

The old monk nodded, looked at the eldest princess's expression, then lowered his eyes and said: "If you ask for it, you won't get it. Good or bad luck is uncertain. It's just a lottery."

The eldest princess' eyes were fixed, and after pondering for a while, she asked again: "I haven't asked for the master's name yet."

"Xuan Jin." After saying these two words, the old monk continued to sit on the futon and knocked on the wooden fish without opening his mouth again.

The eldest princess wanted to ask more questions, but there was another sound of weapons clashing in the distance outside the hall.The eldest princess was taken aback, and her mind immediately turned to Zhou Huai who had just left.

"What's the matter?" The eldest princess looked at the scarlet blood on the ground that was still emitting heat and a fishy smell. It was shockingly red on the messy snow, but there was no corpse.Then he looked at Zhou Huai who was holding the Hidden Sword and was in a state of embarrassment and had an ugly expression on his face.After finding that she hadn't received it, she immediately asked.

"It's all like this, why do you ask knowingly?"

"What do you mean?" The eldest princess frowned and asked Zhou Huai displeasedly.

Zhou Huai stared straight at the eldest princess expressionlessly, and said coldly: "You are so restless, is it because the news has not been spread? However, Xiao Yu has already been arrested, and your contact with the south is considered broken. .Liao Qiwei and Zhou Hao can't protect themselves, so only Wu Mingtai and the Zhou family are left. So, who do you choose to cooperate with now? Or are they both?"

The surprised expression flashed across the face of the eldest princess, and then she looked back at Zhou Huai with a calm expression, and said cruelly while slowly approaching her: "Do you know that there is a saying: The more you know, the more you die?" faster."

"Want to kill me?"

The eldest princess was silent, but she refused in her eyes.

"I don't want to procrastinate any longer, so I will ask you one last time, will you marry me?" Zhou Huai looked at the eldest princess with heavy eyes, and asked seriously again.

The eldest princess felt Zhou Huai's indistinct killing intent, and her heart skipped a beat. She looked at Zhou Huai in surprise, and after a while, she clenched her fists and asked, "After agreeing, you will borrow [-] soldiers and horses." Give me?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I agree."
