Chapter 927: The guest becomes the host???
It was almost midnight when Xu Suisui's convoy arrived at the rebel camp.
"Young Master."
At this time, Wei Changtian was discussing matters with Su Qi in the main tent. Zhang San came in and whispered something in his ear. He responded casually, "Let her in."
"yes!"
Zhang San bowed and left the military tent, and soon walked in with Xu Suisui.
Only then did Su Qi realize who the visitor was, and he stood up subconsciously.
Of course he recognized Xu Suisui.
Although he had never met her, as the new empress, he must have seen her portrait.
Even though she was a woman, and even though Xinfeng was just a small country, Su Qi did not dare to be negligent at all at this moment.
This is the stigma of "the emperor is superior and the ministers are inferior" that is almost rooted in the hearts of every official in feudal society, even when facing the emperor of another country.
Therefore, even though Su Qi's appearance at this moment could not be considered humble, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was respectful.
However, Wei Changtian showed an indifferent expression. He just glanced at Xu Suisui, then turned to look at Su Qi and continued:
"Master Su, I hope you can complete what I just said as soon as possible."
"In addition, I also need you to take the time to draft a letter of accusation, which should basically talk about the evil deeds committed by Jing Guoqing, so as to justify our uprising."
"It doesn't matter if the content is true or not, as long as it makes sense."
"Three days, draft it within three days, and after I've reviewed it, I'll let people know about it in the capital."
Leaving Xu Suisui aside, Wei Changtian spoke to Su Qi calmly, as if there were still only the two of them in the tent.
Xu Suisui was not embarrassed at all. She just stood quietly in the corner of the tent with her head slightly lowered. She did not look like an empress but rather like a maid.
“.”
Looking at Xu Suisui who was waiting with his hands down, and then at Wei Changtian, Su Qi couldn't help feeling surprised.
He was not unaware of the relationship between Wei Changtian and Xu Suisui, but he never imagined that the gap between their identities was so great.
No matter what, he is the ruler of a country after all. "Yes, sir, I will draft the letter of proclamation right away."
Su Qi retracted his gaze and looked at Wei Changtian with a different look than before.
He continued Wei Changtian's words and responded, and the latter nodded, and finally said: "Okay, then you can go first, my lord. I still have something to discuss with the new empress."
"Yes, I'll take my leave."
“.”
He bent down, turned around and walked towards the curtain.
When Su Qi walked to Xu Suisui, he obviously hesitated for a moment, but in the end he bowed to Xu Suisui, then lifted the curtain and walked out of the main tent.
At this point, only Wei Changtian and Xu Suisui were left in the tent.
After taking a look at Xu Suisui, who looked a little nervous and didn't say a word, Wei Changtian was silent for a moment before asking in a deep voice:
"Xu Quan should have told you a lot."
"Now do you know why I called you here?"
“.”
It was a dark night. The camps of 300,000-strong troops stretched out on the west side of the river. It was pitch black and dead silent except for a few fires crackling in the wind.
"I"
Looking up at Wei Changtian, Xu Suisui pinched her fingers nervously and whispered tentatively:
"Is it because of Guan Kong's matter?"
“.”
Fuck! I knew you were responsible for this!
Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone instantly became a little colder.
"You do have some self-awareness."
"Xu Suisui, do you still remember what you promised me when you were in Fengyuan?"
"I chose to believe you at that time."
"Haha, so this is what you did?"
"I really didn't expect you to dare to come. Aren't you afraid of me?"
“Wait, wait!”
Unexpectedly, facing Wei Changtian's sarcasm, Xu Suisui's expression suddenly changed from reserved to excited.
Her face flushed slightly, and she bit her lip and interrupted, "I didn't lie to you!"
"Do you think I was the one who leaked the information about the Son of Heaven to Guan Kong?!"
"Isn't it?"
Wei Changtian sneered: "If it wasn't you, how could you have guessed that Guan Kong had the information about the Son of Heaven?"
"Or is there a character called Guan Kong in the book you have read?"
"Then why didn't you tell me in advance?"
“Oh, I see.”
"You want to wait for me to be killed by Guan Kong so that you can reap the benefits!"
"W-why do you think of me like that!"
Xu Suisui widened his eyes in disbelief, as if he couldn't expect Wei Changtian to say such a thing.
Her chest rose and fell violently, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she stared at Wei Changtian with an extremely aggrieved and angry look, choking with sobs as she spoke word by word:
"Wei Changtian!"
"If I really wanted you to die, I wouldn't have gone to find Qin Zhengqiu in Shuzhou! I wouldn't have sent anyone out to protect you when you broke through to the second level!"
"If I really wanted you to die, you would have died long ago!"
"You can kill Xiao Feng! But I can't kill you!"
"How can you say such a thing!"
“.”
From the beginning of the conversation until now, the two had only said a dozen sentences in total, but the atmosphere in the tent had become extremely intense.
It can be heard that Xu Suisui is really aggrieved, and the last few sentences are almost to the extent of venting.
You know, she has never been so confrontational with Wei Changtian before, so she must be really hurt.
Actually, this is not difficult to understand.
After all, what Xu Suisui said was right. If she really wanted Wei Changtian to die, she didn't even need to plan anything herself. She could do it by slightly changing the plot at certain special moments.
Of course, just like Wei Changtian’s previous attempts to kill Xiao Feng, due to the unpredictable nature of nature, Wei Changtian might not necessarily die.
But the possibility exists after all.
No matter how much Xu Suisui was a puzzler or a hindrance, at least he had never done such a thing, and he had helped Wei Changtian resolve several life-and-death crises, both openly and secretly.
I have been protecting you all the time, and not only did you not appreciate it, but now you say that I want to harm you. No one would feel good about being wronged like this, let alone Xu Suisui who has always regarded Wei Changtian as the closest person to her in this world.
"Wei Changtian, I came all the way here just because you asked me to come to Daqian."
"But you have to know that I am not your maid."
After the excitement, Xu Suisui's eyes became redder, but his tone gradually became colder.
"On the way here, I was wondering if you had any problems and what I could do to help you."
"I didn't expect you to tell me this."
"Don't forget, you promised me back in Fengyuan that you would believe me no matter what."
"You disappoint me so much"
Finally, after taking a deep look at Wei Changtian, Xu Suisui took a few steps back, then turned around and ran out of the main tent, covering his mouth.
It was obvious that she was trying hard not to cry, but Wei Changtian still heard her uncontrollable crying the moment she turned around.
The night wind blew, and the curtains rose and fell, but Wei Changtian did not chase after them.
He just stood there in surprise, never expecting things to turn out like this.
no!
It was obviously her who leaked the secret! Why does it seem like I was the one who did something wrong? ? ? (End of this chapter)
