The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 458

[Chapter 458 What happened?]

After Zhao Yan finished speaking, she turned around and left here.

Fang Xiu sat there, confused, and didn’t even realize what happened.

Didn’t you just say that you are afraid of the dark when you go back alone?

“Your Highness Princess”

At this time, a familiar voice came from outside.

When Fang Xiu raised his eyes, Wu Yi had already walked in front of him.

Just like the last time I saw him, his steps were a little sloppy.

“I owe you three thousand taels of silver!”

Wu Yi walked up to Fang Xiu, slapped the banknote in his hand on the table, and said loudly: “Including the two thousand taels last time, the debt between us is two thousand taels. Cleared!”

When Fang Xiu saw this scene, a look of surprise appeared on his face. He reached out to take the banknotes, calculated them, and found that they were really three thousand taels.

In just over half a month, Wu Yi actually made five thousand taels of silver without stealing, robbing or coercing.

At this moment, even Fang Xiu, who was very familiar with Wu Yi, couldn’t help but admire him.

He raised his head, looked at Wu Yi, and asked: “Do you still earn money by working as a tutor in a wealthy family?”

When Wu Yi heard this, he didn’t know what he thought of, his face turned a little red, and he raised his head and said: “Anyway, I didn’t steal or rob. , and there was no coercion or inducement.

What about what you promised

me

?

Because of something, he was asked to pay back the five thousand taels.

Wu Yi saw that his expression didn’t seem to be fake, and there was a look of sadness and indignation on his face.

He went all out, worked hard, and earned five thousand taels of silver in half a month, just for that matter, but he didn’t expect that the guy in front of him would forget about it!

“Don’t look at me like that. I just forgot and didn’t say I won’t promise you. What’s going on?”

Fang Xiu said helplessly as he looked at the dusty Wu Yi.

After Wu Yi sat down, he looked at Fang Xiu and said seriously: “Of course it’s about going to the battlefield. You promised me that as long as I pay back the five thousand taels of silver I owe you within a month, you will be under His Majesty’s authority. Give me a nice word there.”

He obviously put in a lot of effort to achieve his goal of going to the battlefield.

The fair face that originally looked like a noble son has now been infected by the wind and frost, turning it a little dark, and his hands also have a lot of calluses.

Not to mention anything else, his mental state is also much worse than before.

Fang Xiu really wanted to say something: I just promised to help you put in a good word to His Majesty, but I didn’t guarantee that you would be able to go to the battlefield.

However, seeing his miserable state, I didn’t have the heart to hit him again.

“The imperial court is about to go to war with the Qiyan tribe,”

Fang Xiu thought for a while and said leisurely.

Wu Yi was drinking tea. When he heard this, his hand holding the tea cup stopped in mid-air, and the expression on his face froze instantly.

Then, in a very short period of time, his expression changed several times, first surprised, then happy, then angry, then worried, and finally resentful.

Although he knew that Fang Xiu couldn’t joke with him about this kind of thing, he was still a little unsure in his heart.

He looked at Fang Xiu in front of him and asked, “Really?”

Fang Xiu nodded and said, “Really, if there are no accidents, the decree will arrive at the Qinjun Mansion in the next two days.”

Wu Yi got the affirmation. The answer was, he took a deep breath, looked at Fang Xiu in front of him with resentment, and asked: “Have you known it for a long time?”

Fang Xiu shook his head and said: “It’s just what happened in the past two days, the Mu family rebelled, Your Majesty. Of course, it is impossible to turn a blind eye.

There was still room for maneuver with the Qiyan Department, but this time it is completely gone. “

Wu Yi

was a little shocked when he heard the news.

Seeing his shocked expression, Fang Xiu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn’t know what to say.

During this period of time, he would discuss any important matters in Nuan Pavilion with several pavilion elders, or else just sit in and watch.

So much so that he had the misconception that the affairs of Southwest China and the Qiyan Department were already known to everyone.

At this moment, seeing Wu Yi’s reaction, he realized that what he had come into contact with was things that ordinary people could not come into contact with.

The information he learned was already the latest and most accurate news in the entire Chu State.

“Is there anything else I don’t know?”

Wu Yi was shocked by these two big news. After being stunned for a while, he seemed to understand something, and he seemed a lot lost.

During this time, he had been thinking that he could catch up with Fang Xiu.

Looking at it now, it seemed so ridiculous. Fang

Xiu shook his head and said, “These two things have kept the court busy for a while.”

He said this easily, but Wu Yi understood it in his heart.

Not only will it be busy for a while, but if something goes wrong, whether the imperial court will still exist in the future will be a question.

Wu Yi poured himself a sip of tea and said, “So, His Majesty will definitely send me to the four northern states without you?”

In any case, Wu Yi is a pro-military captain.

The imperial court wanted to send troops south to quell the rebellion of the Mu family, but also to go north to raid the Qiyan tribe. No matter what, they had to use all the power they could.

The Sixteenth Guards of the pro-army army, which is second only to the Nine Divisions and now should be said to be the Eight Divisions’ most important troops, naturally cannot be idle in the capital.

The capital needs soldiers and horses to garrison, but it does not need as many as sixteen guards.

“Not necessarily.”

Fang Xiu shook his head and said, “Maybe he will go to the southwest.”

Wu Yi heard this, nodded in agreement, and said casually: “It’s the same, as long as you can go to the battlefield, the southwest and It’s the same in the four northern states.”

The sky gradually darkened, and the bright moonlight shone in the courtyard.

Fang Xiu looked at Wu Yi in front of him, with a smile on his face, and said: “I, the general of the Shenji Camp, may not have the chance to leave the capital like you.” When

Wu Yi heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at him .

After seeing the look in his eyes, he was slightly startled, and a huge amount of heroic feelings suddenly arose in his heart, and he said: “What’s the big deal? When you get to the four northern states, I will help you achieve your share of the military merits.” !”

Upon seeing this, Fang Xiu showed a faint smile and said, “It’s settled.”

“By the way, I just saw Her Royal Highness coming out of your place.”

At this time, Wu Yi seemed to think of something. He looked at Fang Xiu with suspicious eyes.

When Fang Xiu saw the look in his eyes, his original smile disappeared immediately, and he said with a serious face: “There are some problems with the location of the princess’s mansion. Her Highness came to me for help.”

Wu Yi shook his head, Said: “You guys have known each other since I didn’t know she was the princess.

Moreover, at that time, I heard that your majesty intended to grant a marriage. I said you don’t really think about it.”

At this point, he His eyes became more suspicious and he began to look Fang Xiu up and down.
