Chapter 566: Guess why?



Chapter 566: Guess why?

The next day.

Early in the morning, Wei Zhaohai and Yu Qi arrived at the Tengu army camp.

The two came here not only to support Wei Changtian, but also brought a box of osmanthus cake and two letters.

One was written by Wei Xianzhi and the other was written by Qin Caizhen.

After a few polite words, Wei Changtian opened the letter and read it in front of the two of them.

Wei Xianzhi's letter was relatively normal. Its content was nothing more than reminders like the current situation in Daning was very good and that his son should be extra careful in Huailing.

However, Qin Caizhen's letter made Wei Changtian's expression a little complicated for a moment.

In the letter, Qin Caizhen mentioned Qin Zhengqiu.

The latter reappeared in Huailing City after disappearing for several months. Qin Caizhen, as a daughter, must be worried about her father's situation, so she asked Wei Changtian to have a good talk with Qin Zhengqiu if he had the chance, and then write to tell her.

Qin Caizhen didn't know that the two of them had actually talked about it a long time ago, and she didn't know that the results of the conversation were not optimistic.

In Wei Changtian's opinion, there is already an unbridgeable rift between him and Qin Zhengqiu, and it may even develop into a life-and-death situation in the future.

I don’t know what Qin Caizhen, who is caught in the middle, will feel at that time.

On one side is the son, on the other side is the father Alas, we can only hope that this situation will not happen.

“.”

"Grandpa, you and Lord Yu have come to Huailing. Will it affect the situation in the capital?"

After stacking the two letters and putting them away, Wei Changtian turned his head and looked at Wei Zhaohai: "Doesn't the Ning family still have a second-rank elder who is still alive? How is that person now?"

"Changtian, you don't have to worry about these things. Your father has already arranged them."

Wei Zhaohai took a sip of tea and answered casually: "Although there are still many people in the capital who are dissatisfied with Ning Wenjun, they are not powerful enough."

"That Ning family elder has also fled to an unknown place."

"But this matter is not a problem. It is enough to have Han Zhao in the capital."

“.”

Although Wei Zhaohai, with white hair and beard, is over 100 years old, he is in good spirits and his voice is still strong.

The last time Wei Changtian saw the ancestor of the Wei family was during the decisive battle between "Code Man" and Xiao Feng.

The latter was very arrogant at the time and basically didn't say a few words to Wei Changtian.

But now his attitude has changed a lot.

Not only did he answer every question, but his every word and action was also very kind.

Including Yu Qi, who didn't put on the airs of a second-grade master when talking to Wei Changtian.

It is not difficult to understand why the two are so "polite".

On the one hand, the strength Wei Changtian had previously demonstrated was no less than that of the two of them, not to mention that he also had a special magical power that could kill second-grade enemies.

On the other hand, the reason why the Wei family was able to rise from one of the three major families in Daning to the undisputed overlord of Daning today is obvious to all, as is the role played by Wei Changtian.

To put it bluntly.

For the current Wei family, the ancestor Wei Zhaohai can die, the head of the family Wei Xianzhi can die, but Wei Changtian must not die.

Looking at the extraordinary man in front of him, and recalling his previous dissolute and notorious grandson, Wei Zhaohai couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.

He had always known that there must be some reason behind Wei Changtian's transformation, but he had never asked before.

After all, Wei Zhaohai knew very well that "the secret of heaven cannot be revealed".

However, he didn't know whether he was too relaxed or he couldn't help being curious, he suddenly blurted out and asked:

"Changtian, if I remember correctly, you were only a seventh-rank official when you left Beijing."

"It's only been over a year, how come you've already reached the third rank?"

"But what kind of opportunity is this?"

“.”

What the hell?

Why are you asking this? Do you also want to be Qin Zhengqiu? Hearing this question, the smile on Wei Changtian's face froze.

He looked at Wei Zhaohai, whose face was full of "desire for knowledge", and after a pause he silently asked, "Grandpa, guess what's the reason?"

"???"

The three of them chatted until noon.

After lunch, Zhang San took Wei Zhaohai and Yu Qi to visit the famous Tengu Army.

Wei Changtian returned to the main account and told Chu Xianping what had happened.

Chu Xianping has been feeling guilty ever since Qin Zhengqiu suddenly showed up and stopped him from killing Ning Yongnian.

After all, he once promised that he would be able to stop Xu Suisui no matter what he did.

Strictly speaking, Chu Xianping did not do it.

However, Wei Changtian did not blame anyone. Instead, he became more convinced that "Shen Ran was the accomplice."

Xu Suisui must have planned the "execution robbery" long ago, so Shen Ran was able to tell Chu Xianping in advance.

But the matter of "Baoning Yongnian" was probably an order issued temporarily by Xu Suisui, so Shen Ran was unable to pass the news out in time. It was understandable as the incident happened suddenly.

[Brother Chu, Wei Zhaohai and Yu Qi have arrived at Huailing this morning. I will lead them to Lingbo Pavilion at noon tomorrow.]

[In recent days, the Daning army has been withdrawing from various places in Dafeng to Huailing City, and now the number has reached 200,000]

[What Xu Suisui wants to discuss this time may be related to other countries. I hope you can try your best to collect recent intelligence on Daqian and other neighboring countries.]

[Also inform Ning Yuke and Liang Zhen that Jiunan County can be temporarily surrounded but not attacked. Everything will be discussed after tomorrow.]

【.】

Wei Changtian told everything in one go, and Chu Xianping quickly sent back the news.

Both of them knew that the overall situation would be determined by the "three-party negotiations" tomorrow night, so they immediately discussed all possible situations carefully and made a complete plan.

Since Zhang San was not around, Wei Changtian's speed in delivering messages was very slow, and by the time he finished discussing everything, it was already night.

“Heh~”

He yawned, put away the mother and child jade, stood up and walked out of the tent.

Yang Liushi was sitting outside looking at the stars at this time. When she saw him coming out, she turned around and asked with a smile, "Sir, have you finished your business?"

"Well, it's done."

Wei Changtian stretched lazily and asked casually: "Where are my grandfather and Yu Qi?"

"They saw that the Master was busy so they didn't disturb him. After dinner they went back to their tents to rest."

Yang Liushi answered, standing up and brushing off the sand on her skirt: "Are you hungry, sir? Do you want to eat something?"

"I'm not hungry. Never mind, I'll just eat something."

Nodding, Wei Changtian turned around and went back into the tent.

Then, in less than an incense stick of time, the table was filled with various dishes.

Although it is not as good as the meals at home, it is luxurious enough in the military camp.

Wei Changtian had no awareness of "sharing weal and woe" with his soldiers. Not only did he not feel the slightest bit of guilt while eating these delicacies, he even complained about the chef's cooking skills from time to time.

Yang Liushi was helping to serve soup and pour wine, always with a smile on her face.

"What are you laughing at?"

Putting a piece of wild rabbit meat into his mouth, Wei Changtian asked in confusion: "What's so happy about it?"

"If you are happy, I am happy too."

"Do I look happy?"

"OK."

“Is that so.”

After touching his nose, Wei Changtian realized that he seemed to have relaxed a lot throughout the day.

But it shouldn't be.

I had just had an "unpleasant" conversation with Qin Zhengqiu yesterday, and I have to participate in an extremely important negotiation tomorrow, and I even plan to do something earth-shattering.

I should be nervous at this time, why do I feel relaxed instead? Forget it, I don't want to think about it.

It’s better to do something else while you are in a good mood now.

After all, there probably won’t be such a peaceful night for a long time in the future.

"Well, go and draw the curtains."

"Sir, this is in the military camp."

"Just keep your voice down for a while."

"But what can I do if I can't help it?"

"Then use illusion!"

“.”

A crescent moon hangs quietly in the southwest sky, the cold moonlight sprinkles on the earth, and stars are scattered in the sky.

Torches were blazing, and several teams of black-armored soldiers were patrolling back and forth in the military camp. In addition to the frequent footsteps, there were also whispers from time to time.

"Sergeant, why is Master Wei's tent shaking? I think it's been shaking for quite some time."

"Well, it's probably the wind."

"But there's no wind now."

"Why are you so talkative? Be careful on patrol!"

"oh"
