Chapter 155: Northern Chu Zhao Tuizhi

The person in front of me is Zhao Xun.

He was dressed in plain clothes, had narrow eyes that shone brightly, and a thin face. He did not look young.

He is still used to wearing cloth shoes.

The chill was clearly still quite biting, but to him, it was still indifferent.

Yun Zhuan did what she thought. She directly ordered Duhuo to bring him new clothes.

"What does this mean?" Zhao Xun frowned.

Yun Zhuan chuckled: "This is a sign of respect for you, sir."

Zhao Xun was a little surprised. He thought Yun Zhuan would say something good for his health, or try to please him, hoping that he would contribute to the great cause of this seemingly young man.

Bai Ye said, "This is His Highness Nan Yao."

"What?" Zhao Xun was a little surprised, which stood out particularly in the drizzle outside.

However, he was only surprised for a moment, then he withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "I have heard a lot about you."

Yun Zhuan just said, "I'm just worried that the weather outside is damp and cold, and I'm afraid that you might catch a cold."

"My name is Zhao Xun, and my courtesy name is Tuizhi." Zhao Xun had formally met the two men.

He was a wanderer who traveled around the world and always followed his own will. He happened to come across this sea of ​​literature and ink and saw Bai Ye's remarks.

This just made him feel that Bai Ye was a person worth making friends with.

So he recommended himself, but unexpectedly Bai Ye refused to make friends with him, saying that he had something very important to do, and they could only become friends if Zhao Xun was willing to join. The price was that from then on he would be constrained and no longer free.

Zhao Xun was unknown before and after his death, so naturally he didn't mind. He lived a mediocre life, whether in Northern Chu or in Yuan. He also wanted to have his own opportunities in life like other people, which could serve as a springboard for him to reach a satisfactory level.

He gave this opportunity to Bai Ye.

I originally thought that Bai Ye would mind that he was a Northern Chu citizen. After all, Northern Chu and Nanzhao have always been at odds with each other, so Bai Ye would not give him the slightest bit of good face.

But he found that when Bai Ye knew about this, his expression was very frank and calm.

Just like he treats others, he has the same warm and good expression.

Zhao Xun then felt that he seemed to have found the right person.

This led to the meeting with Yun Zhuan today. Bai Ye told him everything that had happened, but Bai Ye did not say how old the person he was loyal to was.

In Zhao Xun's impression, the person should be a man or woman with the aura of a superior, but the little girl in front of him, who was not even an adult yet, made his eyes widen.

This is the situation, no wonder we need to find a conspirator.

"What's your impression of me, sir?" Yun Zhuan served tea to the two of them, her eyes deep as she observed Zhao Xun's facial expression.

People who often hang out in the outside world and do not stay in the court for a long time will definitely have mistakes in their facial expressions.

She did not test Zhao Xun's knowledge first, but wanted to test his character first.

Although knowledge requires talent, it can be learned, but character cannot be changed.

Now that we have embarked on this path, we must take every step carefully.

Bai Ye believed that since he had brought people here, no matter what happened, Zhao Xun's stay or departure depended on Yun Zhuan himself.

He really wanted to see whether Yun Zhuan had really been able to use his talents during the days when he was away.

Zhao Xun said frankly: "I can't see through you."

Yun Zhuan smiled and said, "Sir, you are joking. I am very young, how can I not see through it?"

"You may be young, but that doesn't mean you don't have much experience." Zhao Xun said seriously, "I have been in the martial arts world for many years and have seen all kinds of people and things. You should know yourself better."

"I am not very talented, but I know a little bit about Qimen and can read faces. Miss, please don't mind."

Yun Zhuan then understood why Zhao Xun was not so surprised after seeing her. Her appearance reflects her heart. No matter how she pretended to be a young boy, she could not escape the eyes of a fortune teller.

Only then did she stop, because it turned out that the two of them were competing with each other just now.

The look on Yun Ju'an Cuo's face was not one of contempt or disdain, but rather a kind of inexplicable surprise.

She was the one who made the first impression and judged others by her own standards.

"Mr. Bai hasn't told me yet, where Mr. Zhao comes from?" Yun Zhuan played with the teacup in his hand, stroking his fingers gently on the cup.

Zhao Xun was very honest: "I am from Northern Chu, and I also know that the girl is from Nanzhao."

"In that case, can you put your country aside and assist me wholeheartedly?" Yun Ju'an asked.

Many people have a simple mindset, that is, their own country is the bottom line, and Yun Zhuan is no exception.

If one day Zhao Xun did something unacceptable to her because of a momentary thought, Yun Ju'an wouldn't mind having his blood on her hands.

Every war, struggle for power, and change of dynasty will result in bloodshed and death.

"I'm clean from front to back. Although I'm from Northern Chu, I'm also a free man, so no one can restrict me." Zhao Xun said softly, "But this is just a joke..."

Yun Zhuan raised his eyes and met Zhao Xun's deep eyes.

Zhao Xun continued, "If the lady is willing, I will follow her rules from now on and will not cross the line."

He paused, just enough to dry up the tea foam, and the movement of picking up the teacup was truly elegant, like a scholar.

Yun Zhuan's hands stopped moving. "How does Mr. Zhao's knowledge compare to Mr. Bai's?"

Zhao Xun glanced at Bai Ye, who said nothing, but looked at him from the perspective of his heart. Zhao Xun could only say, "We have never compared, but although I am not well-educated, I am more than capable of becoming a strategist."

It is true; it is rare to find someone who is content and at ease.

Yun Zhuan asked his last question: "Have you seen me?"

"The way the young lady placed a bet also surprised me. I have seen this before." Zhao Xun put down the teacup, and the steaming tea mist hung in the air. "But I didn't know that the young lady and Mr. Bai were together. It's just fate."

He lived in the mountains for a long time and seldom went down. When he traveled occasionally, he always did so according to his own wishes.

After a fortune-telling, it turned out that there was something else in his destiny that didn't happen last night.

So this is the official descent.

His master had long been sleeping in the back mountain, so he could come and go freely.

So we arrived at this sea of ​​literature and ink.

When I saw Bai Ye, I also saw the little girl in front of him throwing away gold coins.

So I met these two people.

He spent ten years of his life calculating that the rise of Nanzhao would happen within five years, and that in the future, it would be a prosperous era with a female ruler.
