Han Yu not only wanted Liu Xiu to know the importance of Su Wenyue and not to act rashly or do anything bad to Su Wenyue, which would cause an irreparable rift between them, but he was also expressing himself and letting Liu Xiu know that he was a man without any ambitions.
Han Yu was never a short-sighted person. He would not lose the ability to think because of this little bit of kindness to Liu Xiu and Liu Xiu's superficial trust. Even if Liu Xiu showed on the surface that he trusted him, it was hard to say what he was thinking in his heart. Even if emotion overcame reason out of gratitude for a while, once a long time passed, he would inevitably not think too much about it in the future, especially after Liu Xiu's transformation this time. It was a good thing to shed his previous kindness, but it was also a double-edged sword for their ministers. They had to use it well to avoid hurting themselves, so they should be more careful in their actions.
"Hey, since you said that, I can't do anything about you. Just be careful. Sometimes, if you show too much, it will hurt your sister-in-law and attract the attention of others. In short, don't be too much in public." Liu Xiu knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he gave up and temporarily gave up his bad thoughts about Su Wenyue. His original intention of wanting to touch Su Wenyue was not to let Han Yu have any weaknesses. If Han Yu turned against him because of this, it would be bad. It would go against his original intention and would be meaningless. Besides, Liu Xiu didn't really trust Han Yu that much. He was still a little wary and defensive. Sometimes it was a good thing for him to have Han Yu's weaknesses. People with weaknesses can be used with confidence.
"Thank you for the reminder, my lord. I will pay attention to it." Han Yu also appreciated Liu Xiu's kindness. As for whether to keep a low profile, Han Yu no longer cared. After this incident, the news had already spread widely outside. I'm afraid that those who are more informed know that he values his wife. There is no point in hiding it. It is better to say it openly and appear frank.
The topic was not pleasant to talk about, so Han Yu and Liu Xiu buried their heads and ate their dry food. Not long after, Han Yu finished eating his dry food and took out a handkerchief from his bosom to wipe his mouth.
Liu Xiu was just taking a casual glance, but was stunned when he saw the handkerchief in Han Yu's hand. He stared at the pattern on the handkerchief in a daze. It looked familiar, but before he could see it clearly, Han Yu put it away. He wanted to take the handkerchief to take a look, but he couldn't find a suitable reason.
Liu Xiu's heart suddenly became excited. The pattern on the handkerchief looked like the one left by the woman who saved her. Although the pattern was slightly different, the needlework and the general style were similar. Although so much time had passed, his feelings for that woman had not diminished. Even at such a busy time, he did not give up. He kept sending people to inquire about it, but to no avail. Now he finally made a discovery, and it was related to Han Yu.
Liu Xiu wanted to ask directly, but seeing how much Han Yu treasured the handkerchief, he folded it carefully and put it in his arms after using it, which was obviously a favorite thing. Liu Xiu knew more and more about Han Yu. If the handkerchief was given by a woman, it couldn't be another woman, it should be Han Yu's wife. Could it be that the woman was...
Liu Xiu didn't dare to show it too obviously in front of Han Yu, he just frowned slightly, not willing to believe your guess, he has always kept that woman in his heart, although it was because of the life-saving grace, deep in his heart there are some thoughts that he is unwilling to admit, he feels that he can't accept such a result. And that woman doesn't seem to be the same kind of person as Han Yu's wife, who dared to save people at that time, and a strange man he had never met, in addition to courage, she must also be a bit rebellious and erratic, which is really not the same as the character of his wife described by Han Yu.
Even though Liu Xiu had always told Han Yu not to indulge in love affairs, and he could do that for his wife and the women around him, he could not let go of this woman. Even though they had only met once, he felt like he fell in love at first sight and loved her forever.
In fact, Su Wenyue just didn't want Liu Xiu to die an unnatural death and change some of the trajectories of his previous life, so she rashly rescued him. Liu Xiu didn't understand the reason, and he imagined a different situation on his own. He only knew that there was such a kind-hearted woman who saved him regardless of the danger to her life, without asking the reason and without considering the consequences. Moreover, she was a beautiful woman who made people unforgettable once they saw her. The combined effect was very different.
"Xiu Qi, you are not such a sissy. You received this handkerchief so carefully. Could it be a gift from someone you care about? Let me guess. This must have been embroidered for you by your wife. Can you lend it to me so that I can see and admire the exquisite craftsmanship of your sister-in-law?" Liu Xiu couldn't help but said, but with the previous words as a prelude, it didn't seem strange, but the request was a bit abrupt.
Han Yu didn't say yes or no, but just smiled, tacitly agreeing. When he heard Liu Xiu's somewhat inappropriate request, he thought Liu Xiu just made a slip of the tongue, frowned slightly and let go without thinking much. Han Yu knew that Su Wenyue had saved Liu Xiu, but he didn't think about it. The main reason was Liu Xiu's attitude towards women. Liu Xiu was not the kind of person who would care about women, let alone a married man.
Since Han Yu thought that Liu Xiu had just spoken out of turn, he did not mention it again, and it was even more impossible for him to really show the handkerchief to Liu Xiu. Even if he intended to make Su Wenyue have a good impression in front of Liu Xiu, he would never show any of his wife's belongings to other men, let alone show it to other men after it passed through his hands. Han Yu admitted that he was a stingy man in this regard, but this was the thought of all normal men, as long as they loved their wives.
Liu Xiu's eyes changed when he saw Han Yu's reaction. No matter what he thought, he quickly apologized and said, "Xiu Qi, please don't blame me. I was quick to speak and I deserve a beating! How could you show the private things your wife gave you to a stinky man like me? It's all because of those stinky boys in the barracks. They don't talk about serious things all day long, but love to talk about these nonsense. They have led me astray!"
Liu Xiu's reason was reasonable. Han Yu had actually had similar experiences, so he had no doubts. Although he still felt that something was wrong, he couldn't figure out why. He also knew that the brothers in the military camp were bored on weekdays and without women around them, they liked to talk dirty to relieve boredom and have fun.
"Uncle Wen, what are you talking about? I don't care. Let's stop talking about this and eat quickly and get on with our journey. The pursuers may catch up with us soon."
Liu Xiu nodded, knowing that this was not the time for him to think about those things. Besides, he just glanced at it casually and couldn't be completely sure. He could only wait and see later, and see if he could come to a conclusion.
