Yu Shaocheng: “…”
He really didn't care at all whether the king and Xiao Rong were arguing or not.
While Yu Shaocheng was eavesdropping, Yu Shaoxie was blaming himself from behind: "When I saw Rong'er like that, I knew his old illness had recurred, but I never expected it to be so serious. No wonder Mr. Gao and the others were so careful with Rong'er. I - ah, I am really incompetent."
Yu Shaocheng's ears twitched, and he turned his head in confusion and asked, "Brother is not Xiao Rong's person, so what does his competence have to do with him?"
Yu Shaoxie: "...Who told you to listen to me? Listen inside!"
Yu Shaocheng turned his head back silently.
Jian Qiao looked at Yu Shaocheng's worrying appearance and couldn't help but think of his own worrying Zhang Biezhi.
But he shouldn't say that anymore, because Zhang Biezhi performed very well this time. He successfully escorted Xiao Rong and others, and kept his mouth shut. He didn't say anything he shouldn't have said during the three days in the military camp. When Xiao Rong asked him to go back, everyone thought Zhang Biezhi would make a scene, but he didn't. He said to Xiao Rong, "Take care of yourself, sir," and then he left with Gao Xunzhi in a depressed mood. ... The child has grown up, and finally this day has come, but Jian Qiao feels weird.
This kind of thing can only be told to his wife in a letter, so he still collected his emotions here, and only whispered to Yu Shaoxie: "Mr. Yu, don't blame yourself too much. How can we know what Mr. Xiao doesn't want to say? This time it's all thanks to the Buddha, otherwise we would have to wait until we return to Chenliu to learn about it."
Upon hearing this, Yu Shaoxie pursed his lips.
Such a big mess happened just after arriving at the military camp. Yu Shaoxie always felt that the matter was not that simple. Maybe the Buddhist did it on purpose.
Never mind, this isn’t the most important thing right now anyway. Yu Shaoxie patted Yu Shaocheng on the shoulder and asked him in a low voice: “What are they talking about inside? Are they still arguing?”
Yu Shaocheng: "Stop arguing. Xiao Rong is talking to the king about rectifying the military. Some generals and soldiers are lax and undisciplined, eavesdropping on the king's tent. It would be bad if other generals and soldiers follow suit."
Yu Shaoxie: “…………”
Yu Shaocheng pricked up his ears and listened again, then announced again: "Xiao Rong suggested beating with military sticks. If you find it once, you will be beaten with twenty sticks."
Jian Qiao: “…………”
They left in disgrace, and inside the king's tent, Xiao Rong asked Qu Yunmie, "Have they left?"
Qu Yunmie nodded: "Let's go."...
Yu Shaocheng's hearing was indeed good, but Qu Yunmie was still better. Qu Yunmie could hear whether there was anyone outside even when he was lying on the bed, but most of the time he didn't care and wouldn't say it out loud.
In comparison, Xiao Rong's hearing was very ordinary. If Qu Yunmie hadn't reminded him, he would have had no idea that someone was eavesdropping outside.
Xiao Rong: "This was all started by Prime Minister Gao. We can no longer indulge them like this."
Qu Yunmie narrowed his eyes, looking as if he was recalling something: "Didn't you eavesdrop on him once? In the palace."
Xiao Rong: “…………”
You still remember something that happened so long ago!
After a moment of silence, he said, "I have realized my mistake. I will not make it again, and others should not make it again either."
Qu Yunmie laughed: "It doesn't matter, you can eavesdrop on what I'm saying at will. I have nothing to hide from you."
Xiao Rong: "...That won't work either. Rules are rules."
Qu Yunmie looked at him and thought to himself, I've never seen you follow other rules.
But the atmosphere finally became warmer, and he didn't want to ruin it, so when he opened his mouth, he changed the sentence: "After vomiting blood, you rushed here immediately, right?"
Xiao Rong's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he said: "But you also know that I often vomit blood, but this does not prevent me from doing other things. My physique is different from others. It's just spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, and it also has the effect of detoxification."
After saying that, he smiled at Qu Yunmie, but Qu Yunmie looked at him solemnly without saying a word.
Xiao Rong's heart was moved, and he said, "I know my own health, Your Majesty, don't worry about it."
Qu Yunmie sneered but still said nothing.
Xiao Rong: “…”
After a moment of silence, he changed the subject and asked, "Does Your Majesty still remember your last words?"
Qu Yunmie turned his head. He couldn’t understand why Xiao Rong mentioned this, so he could only nod.
Qu Yunmie was a little afraid that Xiao Rong was going to settle accounts with him later, but Xiao Rong didn't mean that. He just had a question to ask Qu Yunmie: "Among the four generals, General Yuan is the one the king trusts the most. I want to know why the king didn't hand over the Zhenbei Army to him, but instead gave it to General Jian."
Qu Yunmie was stunned. Thinking back to the situation at that time, Qu Yunmie actually didn't have time to think carefully. Everything was arranged subconsciously. However, thinking carefully, it was not difficult to guess why he did this: "Although I trust Yuan Baifu, he is not as obedient to you as Jian Qiao. I did not hand over the Zhenbei Army to Jian Qiao, but to you."
Xiao Rong looked at him quietly.
Although he said "I'll listen to you", in that scene, he was actually listening to Qu Yunmie, because he listened to Qu Yunmie first and then to Xiao Rong. It seems that Qu Yunmie himself knew that at the critical moment, his childhood friend was not someone he could trust.
I just don’t know if Yuan Baifu knows about this.
