The monk who is going to cross me is bent

Before coming here, Xiao Chi could probably guess what would happen to him. This is not a pleasant job, and if it was any other Mu Beixi's counselor, the treatment in Zhuang Yan's army would be unbelievable. Much better than yourself.

With new and old grudges added together, these people are afraid that they will give him some suffering, but he can even face his own death calmly, his mood is no longer what it used to be, and he is just a little embarrassed, so what is there to be afraid of?

Here he is.

...then it was put aside.

Xiaochi has a majestic bearing and luxurious clothes. Even though he received this cold reception, he still remains calm and doesn't show any irritation at being slighted. different.

This is his original appearance, he can finally straighten his back, wear his pride, return to his own appearance, and return to the people he used to be familiar with.

He didn't know if Zhuang Yan would see him, he was afraid that Zhuang Yan hated him, hated him so much that he didn't want to see him again.

But that was the end of the matter... what else did he have to fear losing?

If he could see the person he missed the most before letting go of Huang Quan, he thought he could leave with a smile.

If he could speak a few more words with Zhuang Yan, he would have earned it.

So he laughed, and the panic in his heart gradually subsided.

Looking up at the sky, Xiaochi decided to give Zhuang Yan two hours.If he doesn't come, go find him yourself.

Zhuang Yan can wait.

... But he was running out of time and couldn't afford to wait anymore.

An hour and a half later, he was invited to move to the military tent.

Inside the tent, there were three or four chairs on the left and right sides, and a high chair in the center of the front, so you could tell whose seat it was at a glance.

The generals in Zhuang Yan's army and important ministers participating in politics rushed over after hearing the news and participated in the negotiation together.The generals sat in twos and threes, and they were all familiar faces.These people have followed Zhuang Yan for nearly ten years, and they have all met his "Mrs. Zhuang", so most of them know the love and hatred between him and Zhuang Yan.

Everyone sat down, but he had no seat, so he stood in the middle.

The chair directly in front was still empty.

Xiaochi tidied up his long sleeves calmly, letting all kinds of eyes look at him.

A quick-talking general couldn't help it first, and said "Bah", "Monster, you still have the face!"

"Why didn't you dare to come?" Xiaochi reacted very quickly, and retorted, "Business is business, private affairs are private, and there is no personal relationship between you and me, why should you be so righteous?"

Everyone was shocked by him for a moment, and the contrast between the current him and his past impressions was too great. After the shock, everyone scolded this person for being shameless. They only regretted that they didn't have a pair of piercing eyes. Identify the true face of the demon!Then he warned Zhuang Yan to stay away from him.

"You are humble by nature, and you are not satisfied with being favored by the young master, but you turned your head and colluded with outsiders, slaughtered the old master, and usurped our land! Now that I see you, you still don't feel ashamed, and you are making unreasonable words here?"

Xiaochi's face darkened, "Listen to me clearly, my surname is Yuchi, and I am originally from the royal family of Luo'e. With my status, I am more than enough to match a Zhuang Yan! Besides, to say that I am lowly is to insult my family blood, don't blame me for treating you You're welcome, let's go out and compete!"

Everyone had already seen his strength two years ago, and if they made a gesture, they would either be seriously injured or die. Naturally, no one dared to make a gesture with him, so they dared not fight.

"Secondly, Zhuang Yan broke with his father a long time ago, but now he comes to ask him to be filial. What is your intention? Is that beast his father or your father?"

After some questions about father's remarks, their understanding of Xiaochi was refreshed again, and Xiaochi looked proud and said: "I killed that beast to avenge my parents, sister, friend, and family country. What did I do wrong? You guys If I have a family, don’t I have one? Are the Luo people not human?”

"As for saying that I caused General Zhuang Yan to surrender..." After a series of questioning, Xiaochi sneered, "You guys look down on Zhuang Yan too much, and now three-quarters of Zhuanghou's foundation in Jiangbei before his death is still firmly established. It's firmly in his hands. Even if I don't do anything, when Zhuanghou himself dies of old age, all the old Zhuanghou in Jiangbei will really surrender to Zhuang Yan immediately? Wouldn't Mu Beixi take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters?"

"I will not bear your ridicule for me. With all due respect, everyone here has no right to criticize me." Xiaochi's expression returned to indifference, as if he didn't bother to look at anyone for a second time. The hands are retracted into the sleeves.

This unreasonable argument caught everyone by surprise, and the truce proposal was lost for a while before it even started, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Finally, someone became angry from embarrassment, "You serve others with sex, and you are not satisfied with seducing the young master, but you turned around and hooked up with that Mu Beixi..."

"enough!"

When the shout came from outside the tent, everyone silenced, even Xiaochi's movements stopped for a moment.

"The generals and adults are as vulgar and rude as the shrews in the market. Is this the demeanor and etiquette of our army? If such hospitality is spread, how many people in the world will laugh at it."

Footsteps sounded, and Zhuang Yan walked in from behind him.

Xiaochi's heart was beating like a drum, and his temples were also throbbing.He stared straight at the only empty chair in front of him, but didn't look back.

When Zhuang Yan walked past him, he didn't know if Zhuang Yan glanced at him, or if he was just like him, his eyes were fixed on the position in front of him, and he walked past him without squinting.

There was a gust of wind when Zhuang Yan was walking, he didn't see Zhuang Yan at the first time, but he smelled traces of Zhuang Yan.

It was a slight smell of sweat, very light, but it smelled good, and it was still the familiar smell in his memory. During the many nights when he slept in the same bed, it floated faintly at the end of his nose, allowing him to sink into the deep breath with peace of mind. sleep.

And when he raised his head in a daze and looked at the person sitting on the chair in the middle, he felt a sense of distance as if it had been a world away.

Zhuang Yan even smiled, "Give me a seat."

His smile was different, this was the first thought that rushed into Koike's mind.He didn't smile like this before, his lips were curled up, but his eyes were so cold, without a trace of warmth, it was so cold that it made people panic.

Zhuang Yan became even more unfathomable. He used to be familiar with every expression of Zhuang Yan, looking into his eyes, even without Zhuang Yan saying it, he could know what he wanted and what he would do.

To this day, even he can't figure out the person he is most familiar with.

When Xiaochi heard the sound of the chair falling behind him, he put away his fleeting gaffe, and showed a gorgeous smile that was almost flamboyant, "So, thank you Xiao Zhuanghou."

Two years have passed, and Xiaochi is still in his prime. He was already beautiful, but now that he has shown his sharpness, he no longer needs to hide his talent and temperament.Not to mention that Zhuang Yan had never seen such a wanton smile, even the people present were attracted by him and couldn't look away for a long time.

But Zhuang Yan was probably the only one who was not moved by beauty, he asked indifferently, "Master Yuchi, what is the purpose of this trip?"

"...for the truce." Xiaochi's expression was calm, and no one noticed that he had just paused because of Zhuang Yan's address, "Young Master has been stationed in the city for two years and there was nothing wrong the day before yesterday, so I settled a bill for you..."

He talked eloquently, quoted scriptures in a clear and orderly manner, was very contagious, and reacted quickly and made accurate judgments. Even the counselors who didn't like him nodded secretly.

He is indeed capable, no wonder he is still able to occupy the position of an important minister at a young age - this is due to the lessons he learned when he was a prince, the extensive reading that he had been immersed in when he was with Zhuang Yan a few years ago, and the excellence in the south. The experience of political achievements together became what he is now.

It's just that Zhuang Yan, what did he go through alone to become what he is now?

The truce talks became very smooth after Zhuang Yan personally participated. The conditions proposed by Xiaochi on behalf of Mu Beixi were very reasonable, taking into account the real interests of both parties, and did not hide traps.

Today's Zhuang Yan was particularly taciturn. He heard Xiaochi's sincerity, and after seeing that there were proper solutions in several important directions, he didn't make things difficult on purpose. I can only shut up obediently.

Two hours passed, and the participants in the tent had already discussed all the important items. This kind of crispness is really rare in meetings of the same level in decades.

After all the important matters had been decided, Zhuang Yan stood up and left.

Seeing that Zhuang Yan didn't want to be in the same room with Xiaochi, and his behavior just now was very calm and rational, all of Zhuang Yan's team were relieved, secretly thinking that the little lord had learned a lot from a fall, and finally passed the beauty test .

Xiaochi watched Zhuang Yan walk out without hesitation, and when he passed by him, he finally couldn't help it.

He called out: "Zhuang Yan."

Zhuang Yan stopped in his tracks, all the eyes in the room looked over, and their ears pricked up.

"Let me show you something." Xiaochi took out a jade pendant from his arms, and put it away after flashing in front of Zhuang Yan's eyes.

Sure enough, Zhuang Yan saw it clearly, and showed a little disbelieving expression.

That was the jade pendant he had given to Xiaochi, a precious relic of his mother's good wife. He thought it had been broken by Xiaochi, but he didn't expect that it was still intact after a quick look at it just now?

Xiaochi smiled maliciously and slyly. He licked his lower lip, and his smile became more reckless, like a poisonous flower blooming wantonly, "When I came, there was a slope over there, and the height was very good , I threw a lot of stones on it, and I think the sound of the stones falling down is very pleasant."

Zhuang Yan finally looked at him, "...what do you want to do?"

Xiaochi said leisurely: "I just decided, I'm going to throw something else."

Zhuang Yan frowned, "What do you want? I am willing to redeem with a lot of money..."

He saw Xiaochi's expression clearly, and suddenly changed his words: "...Don't make trouble! Is this a joke?"

Xiaochi proved his determination with his actions, he didn't even care about the truce proposal, which was about seventy or eighty percent old, and ran away without even getting serious about it.

Zhuang Yan: "..."

Xiaochi was already walking very fast, and it was about his mother's belongings. Zhuang Yan didn't have time to think about it, and if he thought about it, he would run away, so he had to chase him out immediately.

So he and Xiao Chi disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in the blink of an eye.

A gust of wind blew away, and the curtains of the military tents were blown open.

Zhuang Yan's team: "..."
