I live in Beihai Jun Nanhai [Rebirth]

Shui Jing thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Do you think they want to make a fuss?"

Xie Wuyi nodded.

"It's possible," Shui Jing said, "but it might not be that big."

Xie Wuyi was a little puzzled, and waited for his detailed explanation.

Shui Jing explained: "For one thing, if this is a tactic to make a fool of yourself, it would be too superficial and too ostentatious. Not only will it not make you relax your vigilance, but it will also make you more vigilant as it is now. It is not worth the gain to scare the snake like this. "

"Secondly, all countries have spies in each other's country. All countries are well aware of this. Once Daluan raises troops, will the army march in the direction of the southwest or the south? Can your spies still be unable to tell the difference? There is no way to hide his whereabouts, so what's the use of him making a fuss?"

The reason why Xie Wuyi made this speculation was because he stood in the position of Yu State and had to consider any possible threats, but if he looked at it from the standpoint of Da Luan like Shui Jing, he would immediately find that this This kind of "striking from the east to the west" doesn't mean much to Daluan.

Thinking about this, Xie Wuyi nodded and said, "The scout report will be delivered to Beijing in a few days, let's see how the father arranges it."

Shui Jing put one hand on the table, touched the table with his fingertips, and said: "If I were your father, I would never try to figure out what Daluan meant. I will stand still and guard the northern border for now, and wait for Daluan to move." After the soldiers, act according to the intelligence report. If they come to the south, you should be ready to meet the enemy. If they go to the southwest, order the northern defenders to move westward slowly, and keep them in the south of the Daluan army. The sudden change of direction to the south can be dealt with at any time. Finally, if Daluan really attacked Qi State, the defenders would be placed at the junction of the Three Kingdoms in the northwest corner of Yu State, so that even if Daluan suddenly changes, it will not It’s too late to mobilize troops.”

Xie Wuyi stared at the water mirror for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Should I bring the letter of the repair book that Master said to Father along with the report?"

Shui Jing shook his head and smiled: "You underestimate your father too. I can think of it, but can't he think of it? Even if he can't think of it, there is still someone in the palace who can definitely think of it."

Xie Wuyi was stunned for a moment, and then understood immediately.

National Division.

If the father is indecisive, he will definitely ask the national teacher what he means, and the national teacher is as wise as the master, so how can he not think of a countermeasure.

Shui Jing picked up the chopsticks, put a dumpling into his bowl, and said with a smile, "So you can just eat your New Year's meal with peace of mind. It's useless to think too much."

……

One month later, the lord sent an order to the northern border, and the strategy used was exactly as Shui Jing said that day, ordering the army to stand by in the northern border, and once Daluan mobilized troops, he would move according to the direction of his advance.

In the first ten days of March, when the spy report came again, Daluan sent a large-scale army to the southwest as stated in the war letter, mobilizing a total of 15 soldiers and horses.

This number is not surprising, and it is comparable to the troops that Yu Guo can mobilize under his command. When he heard this number, Xie Wuyi was slightly relieved.

However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Yudu sent another order to the northern border. This time, it was no longer for the purpose of mobilizing troops to deploy defenses, but for Xie Wuyi alone.

The ruler of the country fell ill and was bedridden, so he summoned the prince to return to Beijing to supervise the country as soon as possible.

After receiving this order, Xie Wuyi frowned for a long time.

Sick and bedridden?

Why exactly at this time?

Seeing that the Anyuguan army was about to set off westward, he was not allowed to follow the army westward because of this order, but had to go south and return to Yudu.

Xie Wuyi didn't want to doubt his father, but because of this coincidence, he had to doubt.

He knew that when the troops were garrisoned in the north, his father did not agree to his coming to Anyuguan. Although he suddenly let go later for some reason, Xie Wuyi could feel that he was a little reluctant in agreeing.

Xie Wuyi even felt that maybe his father had already regretted it when he just left Beijing, and it was only because of the inconvenience that the order was changed day and night, so he was allowed to stay in the northern border for half a year.

Although the decree sent this time did not set a time limit for returning to Beijing, the word "as soon as possible" was used, and the meaning of urging was evident between the lines.

Xie Wuyi was tossed and turned overnight.

The next day coincided with the time for sword practice, he rode out of the customs before dawn, went to the open space halfway up the mountain where he used to practice sword, and sat on the ground.

When Shui Jing came, he could tell at a glance that his complexion was not good, his eyes were faintly blue, obviously he had not slept well last night.

"What's the matter?" Shui Jing walked up to him and asked, "Did you go out to rob houses last night?"

Xie Wuyi was not in the mood for joking at the moment, he shook his head, and said in a low voice, "Father is sick, so he called me back to Beijing to supervise the country."

Shui Jing was a little surprised, he really didn't expect such a sudden outburst, and asked: "Then are you worried about your father's illness, or do you not want to return to Beijing?"

Xie Wuyi looked up at him, but said nothing.

Shui Jing was startled, then turned around, nodded and smiled and said, "You suspect that your father is not sick at all, right?"

Xie Wuyi looked back and nodded helplessly.

"It's easy," Shui Jing sat down beside him, and said indifferently, "I'll help you go back and have a look, so you know?"

Xie Wuyi suddenly turned his head to look at him, his eyes brightened for a moment, but soon dimmed again, and he frowned slightly.

For some reason, every time Shui Jing looked at Xie Wuyi, she could always understand his thoughts from the subtle changes in his eyes.

It was the same at this moment. Seeing Xie Wuyi's expression, he could figure out what Wuyi was thinking almost instantly, and joked, "What? You don't think it's good for me to listen to your father's wall?"

Xie Wuyi really thought so. He knew that if Shui Jing really went to the palace to inquire, he would either go to the house to uncover the tiles or sneak into the bedroom at night. As a son of man, it would be rude to let others listen to his father's wall.

Shui Jing knew that she guessed his concerns correctly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Tsk, think about it in another way, if I insist on exploring your father's palace, can you stop me?"

The solution is endlessly silent.

There was no need to think about it, he couldn't stop it.

"I can't stop it, right?" Shui Jing raised her eyebrows and smiled, "So now I've decided on this palace, the only thing you need to choose is to get the result after I finish the search, do you want to hear the result or not? listen?"

Xie Wuyi opened his mouth, hesitated to speak.

Shui Jing looked at his tangled appearance, and suddenly felt teasing in his heart, and nodded his head pretending to be clear: "Since you are so embarrassed, it seems that you don't want to know, well, after I find out, I will let you know." Just let it rot in your stomach."

"I……"

Xie Wuyi was a little unsteady, but he still couldn't speak because of the awkwardness in his heart.

"You what?" Shui Jing still asked knowingly.

Seeing Xie Wuyi's rare indecisive and slightly anxious look, he inexplicably felt a little itchy in his heart, just wanting to force him to speak out himself, so he said again: "Hey, let me ask you one last time, you have to think clearly, you must, or not?"

Xie Wuyi tried to say it a few times, but he swallowed it back abruptly. Shui Jing smiled secretly in his heart, and continued to fan the flames: "So difficult? That's still..."

"Yes." Xie Wuyi interrupted, closing his eyes.

After finishing speaking, he pursed his lips and gritted his teeth, as if he was a little annoyed at himself for being so disappointing.

Shui Jing immediately felt at ease.

He didn't know where his weird pleasure came from, he only knew that every time he saw a crack in Xie Wuyi's usual calm and old man, revealing a slightly green and awkward youth, he felt physically and mentally comfortable.

For a young man, the curiosity for the truth is still strong in his heart, even if he usually hides this trace of youthful nature very deeply.

"Okay," Shui Jing pulled Xie Wuyi to stand up together, "Today's sword practice is postponed, you go back and get a good sleep."

Xie Wuyi immediately said, "I'm not sleepy."

"Don't be stubborn," Shui Jing pointed to his eyes, "Go back and look in the mirror to see how many bloodshot eyes there are and how many bruises there are before you come to argue with me."

Xie Wuyi was immediately at a loss for words.

Shui Jing patted his back and said, "Okay, let's go, I'll go back to Beijing now."

Xie Wuyi seemed to want to say something more, but in the end he did not say any more, pursed his lips and nodded.

……

As Xie Wuyi thought, the way Shui Jing used to inquire about news was never the "righteous way". After arriving in Yudu, he entered the palace and went straight to the king's bedroom.

Anyway, Shui Jing has long been familiar with such things as uncovering roof tiles, turning over window beams, and so on. To him, it is no different from stretching.

But what he didn't expect was that when he was approaching the king's bedroom, he saw a person walking out of the palace from a distance.

release wine.

Such a coincidence?

Shui Jing raised her eyebrows, and as soon as she thought about it, she simply didn't go any further, but stayed behind Shi Jiu, and followed him in the opposite direction.

When Shijiu was about to walk across the imperial garden to go back to his dormitory, when he reached under the Wangming Pagoda, Shui Jing stopped hiding and jumped behind him.

He didn't deliberately move lightly, Shi Jiu naturally heard the sound of him landing, he paused, and then turned around.

Seeing Shui Jing, Shi Jiu was startled for a moment, then pretended to be fussy and said, "Oh, you are a rare visitor."

Shui Jing thought his words were nonsense, raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it rare? Isn't it rare? How many times have I been here this year?"

"No and no," Shi Jiu shook his head slowly, and said meaningfully, "His Highness is not in Beijing, but you are here, isn't it strange?"

Shui Jing laughed and said: "What you said, is it possible that I always look for him every time I come? Are there not many people looking for you?"

Shi Jiu tilted his head, with a half-smile: "You are really forgetful, think about it for yourself, why did you come to me earlier?"

Hearing Shijiu's question, Shui Jing really rolled his eyes and thought about it, but after thinking about it, he found no words to refute.

He came to Yu Palace a few times before, once he brought Hai Dongqing from Daluan to ask Shi Jiu where Xie Wuyi was, and once he brought a bone sword from Qiongguo to ask Shi Jiu what Xie Wuyi's name was Another time, Shi Jiu was asked to persuade the king to release Jie Wuqian and go to the north.

Tsk, it's really all about Xie Wuyi.

Shui Jing blinked blankly.

Shi Jiu jokingly said, "You remember it all the time?"

Shui Jing coughed dryly, turned his face to look aside embarrassingly, after thinking of this, he was inexplicably embarrassed, because he suddenly found that he came this time because of Jie Wuyi.

Shi Jiu had already expected that this time it might be related to the prince again, seeing Shui Jing's reaction, he became more certain, raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's just say it, why are you here for him again this time?"

Shui Jing was not that thin-skinned person either, since Shi Jiu had already guessed it, he had nothing to hide, so he quickly changed back to a nonchalant look, and asked: "Is your lord's illness a real illness or a fake illness?" ?”

Shi Jiu said: "He wants to know?"

Shui Jing naturally knew who this "he" was referring to, and she didn't intend to hide it, so she nodded frankly: "Yeah."

Shi Jiu was silent for a moment, and said: "Don't you think your trip is ridiculous, and this question is even more meaningless?"

"Why is it meaningless?" Shui Jing asked.

Shi Jiu said: "What about the real illness, what about the fake illness? Even if it is fake, can he still resist the order and not return?"

Shui Jing was startled, then said disapprovingly, "He just wanted to know the truth, what's wrong with that?"

Shi Jiu shook his head and smiled bitterly, as if he couldn't understand Shui Jing's thoughts, squinting his eyes and said: "I really don't understand, you can see everything in this world at a glance, why are you so dull when you return to him?"

Shui Jing was baffled by the accusation, and said, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Shi Jiu said: "What's the use of him knowing the truth? Do you want him to resist the decree and not return and die in battle earlier, or do you want him to be forced to return to Beijing, and he will always be worried about his father's actions from now on? "

The meaning revealed by Shi Jiu's words couldn't be more obvious - the fact that the king is seriously ill is indeed false.

But now that the truth has been obtained, Shui Jing is a little dazed by Shi Jiu's question.

Shi Jiu didn't seem to intend to wait for an answer, and said calmly, "If nothing else, I'll go back."

Shui Jing nodded, watched Shi Jiu turn and leave, and stood there for a long time before leaving Yu Palace absent-mindedly.
