Chapter 576: Can't afford to lose



Huo Qijing also went to the military training the next day.

Then he watched him defeat Qing Wei Liao and Zhao Kuangyin.

But he went to see it only to get a more accurate understanding of Chu Ningyuan's strength for future use, not to give Qing Wei and the others targeted training afterwards.

Because to him, Chu Ningyuan was a friend rather than an enemy, so there was no need for him to teach his apprentices how to deal with him just to save face.

So he looked at it as usual and gave the reward as usual, and on the surface, the matter was over.

Without Donkey Zhang Heng, the entire garrison became much quieter, although only temporarily.

That group of people still belonged to one circle, and only Zhao Kuangyin could speak a few words to them. If he could really say he was integrated into the group, he was still a long way off.

The original wedding date was February 19th, and as it was approaching, Emperor Ming Yan secretly sent someone to ask her if she had enough fun... She said directly: "No!"

Huo Qijing did not express any opinion.

He also attended court every day and knew that now was not a good time to reveal the truth.

...

...

And now, they can be together day and night, the only thing missing is physical intimacy... He can wait!

So when the wedding date approached and then passed quietly, there was a turmoil in the court.

I heard that Prince Chun was promoted to Minister of the Chancellery.

I heard that Jin Heqiao's people were repeatedly brought down and he himself was demoted again and again. Now he has become a fourth-rank official. However, Guang Chengbo was praised by the emperor and became Jin Heqiao's immediate superior.

Yan Shiyue just listened to what Jiahe said every now and then. It sounded like the rectification had been almost completed?

Yan Shiyue took advantage of the situation and went to the imperial study. When he came back, he was stopped by Qu Sinian.

He bowed to her and said bluntly, "Lin Fujian and I worked together to suppress the Jin Hejiao forces."

Meow meow meow?

Did he recognize her?

No, he probably didn't recognize her. He must have guessed it from "Wu Qi" = "my wife", and then confirmed it after he found out that she dared to enter the imperial study.

So Yan Shiyue said very calmly: "What do you mean?"

Qu Sinian glanced at her and continued quickly, "First, for my family's revenge, I have believed the thief to be my father for more than ten years, and now I am finally awakening from my dream... Second, for Your Highness, I have lived in this world for twenty years and only now know the word upright. Qu Sinian is willing to follow Your Highness for the rest of his life, and never have second thoughts."

She narrowed her eyes.

She could continue pretending.

But for such, how should I put it, such sincere words, she was unwilling to pretend.

So Yan Shiyue said leisurely: "Are you in such a hurry?"

"Yes." Qu Sinian said: "Sinian has been waiting for a long time. I don't know when I will see Your Highness again, so I am sorry for being so presumptuous..."

She said, "Why do you think I would accept it?"

He said, "Your Highness is not a person who likes trouble. If Your Highness did not want to accept me, you would not have made things difficult for me from the beginning." He quietly raised his eyes to look at her: "The reason you made things difficult for me is because you wanted to use me."

"Okay," she patted his shoulder, "Let's talk about it later! I have one last question..."

He answered directly: "Si Nian knows your Highness's eyes."

Damn! This is an insult to her acting skills!

She immediately withdrew her hand: "I don't want it! I don't want someone like you who can't even talk!" She strode away.

Qu Sinian looked at her back with a slight smile on his face.

Someone patted him on the shoulder from behind: "Si Nian, do you know this person?"

"I don't know him," Qu Sinian turned around calmly, "From the looks of his clothes, he looks like the Duke's personal guard, so I asked about his whereabouts."

"Oh?" the man asked, "What did he say?"

Qu Sinian smiled slightly: "He said that he was willing to convey my concern to His Highness because I look pretty."

As he spoke, he brushed away the man's hand and went straight back into the Samantabhadra Hall.

After Yan Shiyue returned, as soon as he entered the guard post, he found that Zhang Heng had returned.

He is indeed as strong as an ox. How could he be healed in such a short time with one hundred military sticks?

Yan Shiyue went over and asked him leisurely, "Zhang Heng, you're back? Is your injury healed?"

Zhang Heng glared at her angrily. Yan Shiyue scratched her ears and said, "By the way, what was our bet the last time we fought?"

Zhang Heng stood up angrily: "You! Don't go too far!"

"Eh?" Yan Shiyue said slowly, "How did I go too far? Why are you so angry? Isn't this the bet you agreed to? Do you want to default on it? Do you think you can't afford to lose?"

She sat down next to him and said, "Come on, grandson, call me and let me hear you."

Someone nearby advised: "Wu Qi, forgive others when you can."

Yan Shiyue glanced at him. This man was one of Chu Ningyuan's best friends, named Guo Hao.

Yan Shiyue said, "I don't understand what you're saying. I remember the last time Zhang Heng beat up a fellow soldier, he forced him to call him grandpa several times. From the beating to the calling, he never asked the other person's opinion. How come it's not the same for him? Don't do to others what you don't want done to you!"

Guo Hao advised: "Brother, why do you have to be so excessive? I have already beaten you with a hundred military sticks. What else do you want?"

Yan Shiyue sneered: "I still don't understand what you said. Whether it is Zhang Sijie's demotion or Zhang Heng's beating with a military stick, it is based on military law, not personal grudges. According to what you said, what Zhang Heng and his son did on a daily basis, this beating is wrong?"

Guo Hao had no answer to this.

Yan Shiyue continued, "So, let's put it this way. If he's wrong, he has to be punished. If he loses, he has to call me grandpa. Of course..." She crossed her arms and looked at him, "You can call me grandpa if you want. I'm a very easy person to talk to."

Zhang Heng said angrily: "Enough! I think you want to die!"

Guo Hao also said: "Wu Qi! You are too arrogant!"

"Look, you're angry again," Yan Shiyue sneered, "I think your anger is weird. You can just gang up on others and bully them. If they resist, they're totally wrong. You can just hold them down and call them grandpa. But I made the bet myself, and I'm just here to settle it. Do you think I'm bullying? Do you think I'm arrogant? Are you selectively ignoring that I've been bullied for two months before I fought back?"

Guo Hao was speechless for a moment.

Yan Shiyue added, "To put it bluntly, I think you are just spoiled. If you want to change other generals, just because of your tricks..." She pointed her finger at the heads of these people one by one, "Zhang Heng is not the only one who was punished. Is it because our general is too upright and doesn't even bother to suppress us for personal gain, that you resorted to this trick? It's obvious that you are relying on him not to care?"

Chu Ningyuan was originally standing a little far away, but he slowly walked closer with his brows deeply furrowed.

She looked at him and continued, "But why don't you think about what the Yulin Army is? They are in charge of guarding the imperial city and they can follow the emperor's orders as easily as their own arms!"

She tapped Chu Ningyuan's chest from a distance: "Is this the place where you, fathers, sons and brothers, are united and exclusive? Is this the place where you gather together and treat yourselves like a dish and bully the officials appointed by the emperor? Is this the place where you bully your fellow soldiers in the name of training?! You are not alert after being warned, are you really planning to make a big fuss and wait for our general to take action?"

She chuckled and said, "We only have one life, so everyone be careful and cautious!" She turned around and left.

Zhang Heng was furious and said, "This hunchback is going too far! I'm going to kill him!"

"That's enough!" Chu Ningyuan shouted, "You haven't been beaten enough by the military stick yet, have you?"

Zhang Heng was furious: "Let's fight, but he always uses the general to bully others... Bah! I just despise such a useless person!"
