He looked at Jian Qiao in disbelief: "Say it again?!"
Jian Qiao was sweating profusely. "Except for Mr. Gao, the king doesn't like his staff to accompany the army, so Mr. Gao should stay in Yanmen County..."
Xiao Rong: “…………”
"If I don't follow the king, who can I offer my strategies to?! Besides, if I don't follow the king, who will advise him if he does something wrong?!"
Most importantly, he is going to commit suicide again, who can stop him? !
Jian Qiao stared at him blankly. He had something in his mind that he dared to think but not to say.
Is it useful for you to persuade him?
You are not as effective as the guards in front of the king!
Jian Qiao racked his brains and could only reluctantly comfort Xiao Rong: "When you make new contributions and impress the king, the king may be less prejudiced and let you get what you want."
Xiao Rong: "Prejudice." Jian Qiao: "!"
Xiao Rong narrowed his eyes: "What kind of prejudice is that?"
Jian Qiao: Ah, this, this, this.
Xiao Rong took a step forward and said with a smile: "Does the king really have a prejudice against me?"
Just at this moment, the guard came to call Jian Qiao. Jian Qiao was immediately relieved. He ran out while saying, "Sir, please wait a moment. I'll be back soon! You guys hurry up and bring the good wine and food to the sir!"
Xiao Rong: “…………”
After gnashing his teeth, Xiao Rong decided to fill his stomach first, as he was really hungry.
The food here is much better than that in the inn. Jian Qiao's wife even had someone send two jars of wine over. Xiao Rong didn't want to drink it at first, but when he asked and found out that the wine was called General's Wine, his eyes immediately widened.
General's Brew is quite famous, and it is the first recorded high-proof liquor in history. It is said that the weather was too cold at that time, so Qu Yunmie's father invented this liquor in order to warm up the soldiers.
Xiao Rong wasn't sure whether this was the case or not, but he wanted to try it anyway.
Although this wine claims to be high in proof, the wine in ancient times was just that, and there was no distillation technology, so no matter how high the proof could be, how high could it be?
Madam Jian Qiao was really thoughtful. She sent wine and beautiful women, but Xiao Rong waved her hand and asked them to leave.
Not as good looking as me. ...One cup after another.
What Xiao Rong would never admit was that this was his first time drinking.
He used to be a good boy and he had to control his body shape, so he never touched this. But after coming here, he felt too miserable and didn’t want to drink it. If it weren’t for the fame of General Brew, he wouldn’t have thought of it.
But when I really drink it down my throat, it feels pretty good. No wonder some people are addicted to alcohol.
Xiao Rong didn't notice at all that his face was already red, and when he poured himself a glass of wine, he was a little misaligned. He frowned, lowered his head, and was trying hard to align the mouth of the jar with the rim of the cup when suddenly, the door outside was pushed open.
There was a bang, not the sound of the door opening, but the sound of a jar falling to the ground.
Xiao Rong stared blankly at the spilled wine. After a long while, he finally said, "It's spilled."
These two words sounded light and sad, and Qu Yunmie, who was standing by the door, looked at this so-called charlatan with suspicion.
Isn't that a bit young? Did he go to the wrong door?
After doubting himself for only a second, Qu Yunmie became determined that he had not walked into the wrong door, and it was this charlatan who deliberately confused him.
Closing the door, Qu Yunmie decided to meet him.
Because of her rosy complexion, he did not notice that Xiao Rong was in poor health, but he could still tell at a glance because of her beautiful appearance.
Qu Yunmie glanced casually, then glanced again, and then glanced again.
Just along these few steps, his eyes scanned back and forth like a scanner.
Qu Yunmie: “…”
I have never heard of a charlatan with such appearance. Humph, he must be a charlatan and a spy.
He walked up to Xiao Rong and just said one word: "This——"
Xiao Rong suddenly opened his eyes wide, and reflexively jumped to the side. "You scared me. When did you come in?!"
Qu Yunmie: “…………”
Xiao Rong frowned: "I have never seen you before, who are you?"
