General, please be a loyal minister!

When Han Zhao and Liu Ji were still arguing in the room, Su Xin passed Liu Ji's door with a jug of wine, and saw Geng Yi who was standing there like a door god. He rolled his eyes and greeted him with a smile:

"Vice General Geng, the third son who is in charge of guarding tonight must not have had a good time drinking. I brought back a jug of good wine from the banquet, why don't you find a place to continue drinking?"

Geng Yi shook his head: "Sorry, I can't go away."

Su Xin walked up, flipped his hands and took out two cups from his sleeves, and handed them to Geng Yi: "It's fine right here."

Geng Yi refused again: "I really have something to do, so it's not convenient to have a drink with Mr. Su."

Su Xin deliberately interpreted it as an excuse for Geng Yi to reject him: "The third son and Mr. are their business, we don't need to be so tense. Or do you think I, Su Xin?"

Geng Yi hastily explained: "Nothing!"

In the end, Geng Yi couldn't agree with Su Xin, so he had to drink two glasses with Liu Ji in front of Liu Ji's gate.

Su Xin came here with the purpose of setting Geng Yi's words, and of course he didn't allow to stop after three or two glasses. Under his clever tongue and sophistry, after a while, he poured half a jug of wine for Geng Yi.

After drinking for three rounds, Su Xin started to talk tentatively: "Oh, the third son just traded Weicheng for the covenant, it's too unkind, it must be on purpose."

Geng Yi was not happy when he heard this sentence, and some of his superiors were dissatisfied: "You people, you only see the third son making things difficult for the second son, saying that he is mean. But you don't want to think about how the second son treated the third son back then."

Su Xin rolled his eyes: "I heard that the second son treated the third son badly in the early years, but isn't that all in the past?"

Geng Yi pulled his face and sneered: "It's over? This person is used to being generous to others."

Su Xin hurriedly refills Geng Yi's wine and coaxes him: "Don't be angry, don't be angry. I don't know the reason. Only when you tell me carefully, I will know who is right."

Geng Yi's face brightened a bit: "I won't talk about trivial entanglements. Let's just say that three years ago, when the battle line moved northward, Liu Jin, who was in charge of relocating his family members, deliberately left the third son behind and left him in the old house in Yicheng. Isn't that counted as revenge?"

Yicheng was the base chosen by Liu Ci when his power was still weak. Later, his territory became larger, and the closure of the remote Yicheng brought a lot of inconvenience to the management of the territory, so Liu Ci moved the base to today's Nandu.

The economic, political, and military centers were all transferred during this migration. Nandu prospered rapidly, while Yicheng experienced rapid depression.

At this time, there is no difference between being thrown in Yicheng and being abandoned.

Su Xin wondered: "Does King Zhongshan not care?"

Geng Yi replied sarcastically: "Do you think he has taken care of Liu Jin now? What's more, at that time the boss was being ignored because he disobeyed the king."

Liu Ci raising his son is the same as raising Gu, watching them fight coldly, as long as it doesn't endanger the community, he won't intervene at all.

Gongliang Yin Mingming is Liu Ji's husband. Didn't he help Liu Ji when he was down and down?What role does he play in Liu Ji's ups and downs?

Su Xin tentatively asked: "I heard that the third son's husband, Gong Liang Yin, is highly relied on by the king. Doesn't Mr. Gong Liang also help the third son?"

Geng Yi sneered, as if laughing at Su Xin's innocence: "Gong Liangyin is the king's spokesperson. At that time, the king despised the young master, so it's only strange that he would take care of it."

Liu Ci is cold-blooded and ruthless in nature, but a ruler must consider the stability of people's hearts.

So he would leave some hurtful things to others, and Gong Liangyin was the one who helped him do most of these things.

Geng Yi drank the wine in his hand, and then complained: "Everyone is pushing the high and stepping down. During that time, the boss was not much more decent than a beggar. If the boss didn't get on the line of the Ye family and was reactivated, he would have It will be abandoned in Yicheng."

"However, the boss who returned to Nandu through Master Ye's recommendation was assigned to Liu Jin. How could Liu Jin, who had an old grudge with the boss, give the boss a chance to rise at this time?"

"Sending the boss to the most dangerous place, withholding supplies, taking credit, and deliberately distributing old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers to the boss when recruiting troops, these are all routine operations. He spared no effort to suppress the boss, for fear that the boss will one day succeed. Then Why did no one say that Liu Jin treated his brother harshly?"

Su Xin was surprised: "The second son has done such a thing?"

Hearing the suspicion in Su Xin's tone, Geng Yi simply cited an example: "The year before last when Liu Fei was conquered, the boss was ordered to lead troops to fight against the Yangzhou army. In the cold winter months, our 5000 troops were only allocated [-] shi of food. And Liu Jin's army Horses eat human food, and they would rather let the food go moldy than distribute it to the boss.”

"If the boss hadn't put down his face and begged the Murong family, we would have starved to death."

Su Xin asked: "Murong, a wealthy businessman from the south of the Yangtze River?"

Geng Yi nodded: "Yes!" He didn't know how Liu Ji persuaded the Murong family, but there was also a "Mrs. Murong" who followed Liangcao.

Su Xin sighed: "The third son is still in such a situation."

Geng Yi patted Su Xin on the shoulder: "If you know it, don't say those things again. Also! Boss asked, don't say what I said."

The strong Liu Ji doesn't want the people below to tell others about his miserable past, but Geng Yi doesn't want others to talk about Liu Ji like that. It's obvious that Liu Jin was unkind first, so why did Liu Ji lecture him?

Outsiders say that Liu Ji is proud of his talents, has no dust in his eyes, and is arrogant, but Liu Ji's soldiers all know that his general is the best for them.

Just like himself, he was originally a homeless refugee with nothing, but it is because of Liu Ji that he has such a bright life today.

When he reunited with "Brother Ji", Liu Ji himself ate his last meal, but he was willing to give him half a bowl of rice and teach him the art of war and martial arts... making him a decent person too.

Without Liu Ji, he is still a homeless "Geng Sangou".

Su Xin sighed: "The matter of Weicheng is a battle between the third son and the second son, but it will be difficult for me and my husband to explain when we go back."

Geng Yi said bluntly: "You might as well follow the boss, the boss will be rewarded for his merits, as long as he has talent, he will be able to succeed soon!"

Su Xin laughed dryly: "You really know how to joke, how can the lord change at will? What's more, the third son, who is always on the go, won't reuse it, right?"

Geng Yi is silent: Compared with your loyalty, the boss may be more greedy for your husband's body.

While the two were chatting, there was a sudden strange noise in the room, and Geng Yi hurriedly got up and came to the door: "Boss! What happened?"

Liu Ji's angry voice came from inside: "Get lost!"

Geng Yi didn't ask any more questions, and went back to the corridor to sit down in silence.

Su Xin smiled awkwardly: "The third son seems to have a bad temper." He added a glass of wine to Geng Yi.

Geng Yi frowned and drank the wine in the glass: "He is not usually so emotional."

Geng Yi didn't know what the reason was, he was a little worried about Liu Ji.

Su Xin noticed the noise just now, it didn't sound like it would be made when he was alone: ​​"Is there someone in the third son's room?"

Geng Yi hesitated for a moment, and replied truthfully: "Mr. Gu is still here."

Su Xin: "Oh."

Now it was Geng Yi's turn to be puzzled.

What?Just one?The teacher is not worried inside?

Geng Yi: "Aren't you worried about Mr. Gu?"

Su Xin asked, "What are you worried about?" It's normal for the master and apprentice to have something to say, so there is nothing to worry about.

Although the movement just now sounds a little intense, but Han Zhao's martial arts are so good, he shouldn't be at a disadvantage in Liu Ji's hands.

Seeing Su Xin like this, Geng Yi guessed that he was completely unaware of "Liu Ji plotting against Gu Chongming".

He remembered what Liu Ji said to him a few days ago, "I recognize Gu Chongming", and he became even more worried. He picked up the flagon that Su Xin had put aside and filled himself another glass.

After they drank a few more glasses, the door of Liu Ji's room opened suddenly, and Han Zhao came out from inside. His clothes were a bit messy, wrinkled from the fight just now.

Han Zhao noticed Geng Yi's indescribable gaze cast on him, and asked suspiciously, "What are you looking at?"

Geng Yi shook his head again and again: "No!"

Then he looked at the door again: the boss probably didn't do anything in such a short time.

Han Zhao ignored Geng Yi and turned his head to walk towards his room.

Su Xin greeted Geng Yi, put down the jug and chased after him.

From the signing of the covenant to the return to Jingzhou, it is considered safe and sound.

The news that Weicheng was ceded has been sent back, which angered Liu Jin as expected.

He didn't think Weicheng was so important, he just felt that Liu Ji was slapping him in the face on purpose.

As soon as Han Zhao returned to Nandu, he was reprimanded by Liu Jin, pointing his nose: "Are you going there to eat? Liu Ji cuts off my city and you let him cut it?"

Su Xin hurriedly stood up and spoke to Han Zhao: "Second Young Master, Weicheng is our vote for Second Young Master, and we don't want it to be sent out. Mister has tried his best to dissuade it, but the decision rests with the King."

"It's abominable for Liu Ji to lose the face of the second son, but now Jingzhou is attacking the puppet dynasty in full swing. It is really a small loss for a city to influence the alliance and cause disputes to make the king unhappy. As long as you can continue to control the command of the eastern army and horses Quan, there will be more than one city by then?"

Han Zhao also said at the right time: "Second son, calm down, it's just Weicheng. The alliance is successful and the war starts smoothly. I can help the second son achieve greater military exploits."

The anger in Liu Jin's heart dissipated a lot after this exhortation. He glanced at the teachers and students who were singing together, and said coldly: "I hope so."

Liu Jin heard some rumors that Gu Chongming had a "very close relationship" with Liu Ji when he was in Bingzhou.

These words made him suspicious of Gu Chongming, but he still needed this famous military official, and he didn't intend to create a quarrel with him at this time, so he suppressed the suspicion in his heart and did not pursue it.

But if he was allowed to find evidence, he would not spare Gu Chongming lightly.

After sending Liu Jin away, Su Xin sat down.

Although Liu Jin was annoying, he was easy to deal with, but it was that Liu Ji, Su Xin couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

Said he didn’t recognize Mr., at first he was eccentric, said he recognized Mr., but he acted like a stranger during this period, and Mr.——Thinking of this, Su Xin secretly glanced at Han Zhao next to him : It looks like "it's none of your business".

Tsk, you really deserve to be a master and apprentice, who can bear it?

Su Xin is a bad-hearted person, and when he saw Han Zhao's indifferent look, he wanted to tease him, so he pretended to be careless and sighed: "The third young master has made meritorious service this time, which is enough to make up for his mistakes last time, but I don't know what King Zhongshan will do this time Where to send him."

Han Zhao replied calmly, "He doesn't need to worry."

Su Xin raised her eyebrows: Don't worry, don't look preoccupied.Really, stubborn.
