Chapter 332 Meeting Again
Thinking of this, Helian Hengxin did start to panic.
"Come here, summon King Ren." Although he could not rely on Helian Renxin, the military power was in his hands now, so he could only talk to him about this matter.
When he saw Helian Renxin, Helian Hengxin asked directly: "Prince Ren has been stationed at the border, saying that he wanted to make friends with the Marquis Dingguo of the Great Chu. What's going on now?"
Helian Hengxin's words stunned Helian Renxin.
Previously, he and the old Marquis Dingguo had indeed reached a consensus on peaceful coexistence, and the two sides did not interfere with each other.
But no one expected that after Song Zhangping returned to the capital of the Great Chu State, it was his son and grandson who came back.
Moreover, his son has become the new Marquis Dingguo.
He had met Song Qingqi before. Maybe he had less practical experience than his father, but in terms of military talent and ability to lead troops, he was even better than his father.
What's worse, the son he brought with him was not a good person either.
Although he is a young man with a foolish look, he always does things in accordance with the rules. Although he is a law-abiding person, his behavior is sometimes really unexpected.
I just crossed the line during military training that time, but he brought people to warn me.
He even beat up a soldier who talked back.
For the sake of Marquis Dingguo, I didn't bother with him after all.
But later, Helian Renxin clearly felt that Song Qingqi, Marquis of Dingguo, and even his deputy general Shen Xiao, had become much more distant from him.
I didn't expect them to be so vigilant.
"Prince Ren! I am asking you a question." Seeing that Helian Renxin had not spoken for a long time, Helian Hengxin continued to interrogate him with a dark face.
King Ren just smiled awkwardly: "Your Majesty, although we have reached a consensus with the Marquis Dingguo, we are still opponents after all. I will keep a good distance from him."
Helian Hengxin was unwilling to listen to his nonsense and just waved his hand: "None of this matters anymore."
"In the next few days, all soldiers should be alert and not slack off at all. They should be ready for battle at any time."
This sentence made Helian Renxin look confused: "What does your majesty mean?"
Helian Hengxin couldn't help but glance at He Bakui, and then he spoke with a tone full of dissatisfaction: "The assassin we sent to assassinate the Emperor of Great Chu might have been discovered. I'm afraid the Great Chu will take some action."
Helian Renxin looked at the emperor, then looked at He Bakui beside him, and only muttered, "Confused."
Nowadays, all the countries in the world rely on the Great Chu State for survival, and are working hard to maintain good relations with the Great Chu State.
At this time, only Yuefeng State was still confronting the Great Chu State. Yuefeng State was not strong, and such actions would only cause more trouble.
Helian Hengxin knew it very well. Seeing the look in Ren Wang's eyes, he became angrier and angrier. He immediately said to He Bakui, "Prime Minister He, please rest at home from today. I will send someone to inform you if there is anything."
This means that He Bakui will be placed under house arrest.
Or to put it another way, it is to sideline He Bakui.
Marquis Dingguo had not yet received the news of the assassination of the Emperor of Great Chu. They were now busy receiving another group of people, the former Minister of Revenue Guo Ping.
According to the departure time, the group should have arrived in Jinhu County.
Song Qingqi naturally disliked Guo Ping. It couldn't be said that they had different political views, but Guo Ping used to be someone close to Prime Minister Cui.
Prime Minister Cui and Concubine De had found so many troublemakers for Qingya and Qingyan. As their elder brother, Song Qingqi naturally hated Prime Minister Cui, and even his disciple Guo Ping hated him.
After all, Guo Ping has done a lot of work for Prime Minister Cui.
But Guo Yueshao was different. Because of Guo Yu, Guo Yueshao had often appeared in the Song family's house since he was a child.
This girl is not as cunning as her father and is very innocent and adorable.
Although she rarely appears in public, Song Qingqi has met her because they are relatives.
Especially when he heard his wife say that Guo Yueshao might like this boy of his, Song Qingqi liked him even more.
Now, there is a mentality of a father-in-law looking at his daughter-in-law.
So when he learned that Guo Ping's family was coming to Jinhu County, although he felt regretful, he happily sent Song Zhuo to pick up the family.
"Father, it's almost time now. I will go to the Jinhu County Government Office and wait there." To Song Zhuo, it was just a routine matter.
Seeing his son like this, Song Qingqi sighed and said, "Wait, your father will go with you."
He turned around and gave Shen Xiao a few instructions before going out of the tent.
Ever since Song Zhuo gave the King Ren a "reminder" last time, Shen Xiao had indeed felt the King Ren's hospitality towards the Marquis and the Marquis's disdain for the King Ren.
Now the Marquis said that it was Xie Jueyue Fengguo's people who entered the western camp of Da Chu for a while.
Lord Hou is right, we must always be on guard.
After Song Qingqi and Song Zhuo left the camp, Song Zhuo began to mutter, "Guo Ping is just a demoted county official, why did my father come to pick him up in person?"
"Just go and take a look, son."
Seeing his son's hopeless state, Song Qingqi simply stopped talking and rode forward.
Guo Ping and his group drove a little slower, so Song Qingqi and his companions had to wait for half an hour.
So when he saw the two people standing outside the door from a distance, Guo Ping quickly got off his horse and walked over quickly.
However, Song Qingqi stepped forward and lifted him up, stopping him from saluting him.
"Master Guo, thank you for your hard work along the way."
Guo Ping, who had experienced many hardships along the way, almost cried when he saw Song Qingqi who was so kind to him.
At this time, Guo Yueshao and her daughter, who were in the carriage, also noticed the movement outside and looked out quietly.
Just one glance and Guo Yueshao's face turned red.
No matter how bold she was in front of her father and mother, or even in front of the Imperial Concubine, she dared to speak her mind, but when facing the real person, she still couldn't help but feel shy.
When seeing Song Zhuo again, Guo Yueshao felt as if he was in another world.
Song Zhuo's face, which was not very fair, was made a little rough by the wind and sand, but it looked more stable than before.
And the figure seemed to be thinner and taller than before, the attraction radiating from the inside out made it even more impossible to ignore.
After a while, the mother and daughter supported each other and left the carriage.
Guo Yueshao politely stepped forward and greeted the two people: "Greetings to the Marquis, and greetings to Mr. Song."
"Ms. Guo, please get up quickly. You don't have to be polite." Song Zhuo hurried forward to help her up.
Because he had met Guo Yueshao before, Song Zhuo felt a little more sympathy for her and even had some admiration for her.
I thought she was a delicate young lady, but when she arrived at the border, she was silent.
Seeing that his wooden son finally took action, Song Qingqi finally smiled with relief.
