Soon Qin Zhi took Xie Jin and the others back to the Hu camp. He arranged them in a tent and said before leaving: “There are limited tents in the camp, so I have to inconvenience you two to make do with it.”

After saying this, Qin Zhi walked out of the tent with a happy face.

Zhao Shu looked at the only bed in the tent, then looked away as usual. Suddenly, Xie Jin stretched out his fingers and gently touched the back of her hand.

Zhao Shu looked at him in confusion, and saw him put his finger to his mouth as a gesture to keep quiet.

Zhao Shu stared at him without blinking. Xie Jin felt uncomfortable being stared at by her. He coughed lightly and motioned her to come closer to him.

Zhao Shu did as he was told. The fragrance of his daughter instantly filled his nose. His nose twitched slightly, his eyes dodged for two seconds, and then he pulled her over and dragged her in front of him, facing her.

Zhao Shu was startled and let out a slight cry of surprise, but before the sound could come out, a big hand covered her mouth.

Zhao Shu raised her head in shock, and when she came to her senses, she glared at Xie Jin a few times.

Seeing that she was furious, he let go of her hand awkwardly, then took her hand and wrote in her palm.

“Do not talk.”

Zhao Shu glared at him!

Xie Jin loosened his grip on her hand a little, but held it tightly again after just a moment.

He stuffed a pill into Zhao Shu’s mouth: “This is the antidote. After taking it, your strength will recover within a quarter of an hour.”

Zhao Shu blinked: “Where did you get this?”

“I brought it from Shangjing City.”

Zhao Shu blinked again: “Did you know from the beginning that Qin Zhi would do this?”

Xie Jin’s lips curled slightly: “I guessed a little.”

Zhao Shu stared at him straight in the eyes: “Did you guess what happened in the moat?”

This time, Xie Jin did not write on Zhao Shu’s palm, but imitated her previous action and blinked.

Zhao Shu pulled her hand out of his and gave him a thumbs up: “You’re awesome!”

Xie Jin’s face was as thick as the Great Wall; he just smiled and didn’t refute.

Zhao Shu looked at him steadily, suddenly smiled and hooked her finger at him.

Xie Jin knew that nothing good would happen if she asked him to come over at this time, but he still couldn’t help but walk towards her.

Xie Jin stopped one meter away from her. Zhao Shu smiled and shook her head, pointing to her feet, motioning him to come closer.

Xie Jin looked at the hibiscus-like smile on her face and approached her in a daze.

Beauty is like poison, once you are infected with it, there is no cure, especially the beauty in your heart!
Xie Jin walked towards her in a light-hearted manner. Zhao Shu’s smile became even more charming. She touched her red lips with her finger and hooked her finger at him again.

When Xie Jin saw her movements, he was stunned for a moment, and then his whole body went numb, his eyes staring at her tender and tempting red lips.

Zhao Shu chuckled silently, and touched her red lips again with a seductive look in her eyes.

In the past, Xie Jin would not even dare to think about these things, but now they have hit him on the head like a pie in the sky, leaving him completely confused.

Zhao Shu silently opened her red lips and said, “Don’t you want to?”

Xie Jin’s eyes tightened instantly, his body tensed, and his dark eyes gripped her tightly!

Zhao Shu squinted at him and was about to turn around and leave when a strong force pulled her back.

With a layer of warmth covering her lips, Zhao Shu looked at Xie Jin with a smile in her eyes. When he was about to go deeper, she clasped his shoulders with both hands, then exerted force, and with a “bang”, Xie Jin went from standing to lying on the ground.

Xie Jin stared at Zhao Shu above him in a daze. Zhao Shu slowly squatted down in front of him, placed her fingers lightly on his lips, and made a gesture to silence him, “Hush!”
Then he opened his lips silently: “Walls have ears!”

Xie Jin looked at her with a smile, but Zhao Shu hadn’t figured out the meaning of his smile yet, the man on the ground suddenly stretched out his arms, grabbed her arms and pulled her over!

Zhao Shu was caught off guard and fell on Xie Jin in an instant!

Zhao Shu panickedly placed her hands on Xie Jin’s chest, trying to get up from him.

But Xie Jin would never let her have her wish. He opened his arms and instantly held her in his arms.

The moment their chests touched, Zhao Shu’s heart skipped a beat and Xie Jin’s eyes were blank for a moment.

When both of them came to their senses, Zhao Shu continued to struggle to get up from his arms, while Xie Jin hugged her even tighter!
Zhao Shu kept twisting her body around him. Xie Jin’s eyes were full of understanding. He hugged her and leaned close to her ear, saying in a low voice, “You teased me, and now you want to run away?”

Zhao Shu’s cheeks flushed from the slight heat beside her ears. She struggled less vigorously and said in a muffled voice, “I didn’t.”

Xie Jin laughed hoarsely: “Little liar!”

If the warm dish just now was the appetizer, then the voice of “little liar” was the main course. When the voice reached her mind, half of her body was instantly numbed.

Zhao Shu struggled again, her face filled with shame and indignation!

Xie Jin froze instantly, tightly restraining her restless body, and said hoarsely: “If you move again, something bad will happen!”

At first Zhao Shu didn’t understand what he meant. After a while, she finally understood what he meant. She froze and dared not move at all!
Xie Jin noticed her stiffness, raised his hand to stroke her hair, and said with a low, hoarse smile: “Good girl.”

Zhao Shu buried her face in his shoulder, too embarrassed to utter a word.

This, this guy is a hooligan!
Xie Jin didn’t let her go. Zhao Shu prepared herself for a long time before she mustered up the courage to speak: “Can you let me go now?”

If she knew that teasing him would have such terrible consequences, she would never have teased him without knowing her place, even if she was beaten to death!

Xie Jin’s voice was still hoarse: “Wait a little longer.”

Zhao Shu was stunned. What are you waiting for?

Although Zhao Shu didn’t know what to wait for, she still didn’t dare to move and waited obediently.

After a moment, Xie Jin patted her back gently: “Get up.”

Zhao Shu and the others’ eyelids were almost drooping. After finally hearing this voice that was as if they had been pardoned, all their sleepiness disappeared in excitement, and they hurriedly propped themselves up and stood up.

“Hmm!” A dull pain came from below!

After Zhao Shu stood up, she didn’t dare to look at him at all. She suddenly turned her body to the side and turned her back to Xie Jin!

Xie Jin stood up while rubbing his chest, laughing softly as he did so: “You’re welcome.”

Zhao Shu’s face suddenly turned red. Who was being rude? Obviously, he was the one being rude!

Zhao Shu turned around indignantly, wanting to accuse him of slander, but when she turned around, she saw the handsome man frowning and rubbing his chest!

Zhao Shu was stunned. What, what happened?
Zhao Shu stared at the place where he was rubbing, and then she realized that it seemed, it seemed, that she had supported herself in the wrong place when she stood up just now.

When he understood, his face instantly turned red, and he murmured with evasive eyes: “So that’s what you meant.”

Xie Jin listened to everything she muttered, and looked at her with a smile: “What else do you think I said?”

Zhao Shu looked away: “No, nothing, but you deserve it. Who told you to do that just now?”

Xie Jin smiled and continued: “What happened just now?”

Zhao Shu raised her eyes and glared at him: “Nothing!”

Xie Jin smiled: “I thought you were going to say, I just did that to you”

Before he could finish his words, Zhao Shu interrupted him hastily: “There is only one bed here, what should we do tonight!?”

As soon as these words were spoken, the room instantly became quiet. Zhao Shu frowned in annoyance and wished she could bite off her tongue!

Xie Jin’s eyes moved from Zhao Shu to the bed behind her, and then he walked towards Zhao Shu.

Seeing him approaching her, Zhao Shu took a step back in panic and stared at him vigilantly: “What are you going to do!”

Xie Jin was startled, and when he reacted, he snorted, “What are you thinking about?” He raised his foot and continued walking. When he came to Zhao Shu, he snorted, then walked straight past her, came to the bed and picked up the pillow on the bed: “It’s enough to have this.”

Zhao Shu’s heart suddenly dropped, but there was also a hint of imperceptible loss.

Xie Jin put the pillow on the ground and looked up at her: “You look disappointed, are you regretting something?”

Xie Jin put the pillow away, stood up and walked towards her: “If you want, it’s not impossible.”

Zhao Shu’s face turned blue and red, and suddenly, she smiled at him, then walked towards him, stood in front of him, then grinned at him with a fake smile, and kicked him hard in the calf!
Xie Jin bared his teeth immediately, and Zhao Shu immediately said: “Xie Shizi, pay attention to your demeanor.”

Xie Jin looked at her with a half smile. Zhao Shu frowned when he looked at her: “What are you looking at?”

“In your heart, do I still have such a thing?” he said.

Xie Jin smiled with eyes curved: “So I am so good in your heart.”

Zhao Shu coldly poured water on him, extinguishing his fantasy: “You think too much!”

Xie Jin laughed in a way that made him want to be beaten: “I think as much as I want, as long as you are happy.”

“.”

As night fell, the candle that had just been blown out emitted faint smoke, and the tent was completely dark. The starlight dimly enveloped the tent.

Zhao Shu lay on the bed on her side. After a while, she turned over, opened her eyes and looked at the person on the ground.

The room was dark and no one could see each other in the darkness.

“Can’t sleep?” the person on the ground said in a low voice.

Zhao Shu shook her head, then realized that he couldn’t see her movements, so she said, “No.”

Xie Jin laughed for a moment, but did not expose her hypocrisy: “How about I come up to accompany you?”

Xie Jin thought that this idea of ​​his was great. Maybe if the two of them stayed close together, they would fall asleep faster.

Zhao Shu turned over again, lying straight on the bed, looking at the ceiling: “Cousin Jin, do you know what the biggest difference between humans and animals is?”

Xie Jin showed his qualities as a good student and asked without hesitation: “What is it?”

In the dark night, a woman’s voice rang out: “Know your shame and have a bottom line.”

Xie Jin chuckled: “I think I have a bottom line. Otherwise, do you think you can still talk to me properly at this moment?”

Zhao Shu choked: “Then I really have to thank cousin Jin.”

Xie Jin looked at her profile and said, “You’re welcome. I can still stick to this bottom line.”

No one spoke anymore, insects chirped everywhere, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.

Xie Jin imitated Zhao Shu and looked at the ceiling: “Shu’er?”

Zhao Shu: “.Hmm?”

Xie Jin’s tone was low and serious: “You really don’t need me to go up with you?”

Zhao Shu: “Shut up!” A pillow also fell down!
Zhao Shu turned over and pulled the quilt to her head!

After the person on the bed’s breathing gradually calmed down, Xie Jin calmly took the pillow thrown on him into his arms, and fell asleep holding the pillow that was used as a weapon.

The next morning, the tent was rudely opened from the outside!

Xie Jin opened his eyes instantly and looked towards the entrance of the tent with a cold expression.

The soldier who opened the tent was frightened by his look and stood there. Qin Zhi stepped out from behind him, looked at Xie Jin’s fierce gaze, and smiled disapprovingly: “Master Xie, do you really think this is your own home?”

Xie Jin turned his head and looked at Zhao Shu from head to toe. After seeing that she was dressed neatly, he turned his head to look at Qin Zhili: “The Second Prince’s personality now is completely different from yours back then.”

After saying this, he got up from the ground comfortably, and Zhao Shu also came to Xie Jin from the couch.

Xie Jin patted his robe and said to Qin Zhi, “Let’s go.” Qin Zhi’s face returned to normal, and he looked at Xie Jin with a fake smile: “Master Xie is indeed one of the best figures in Shangjing City. Since you know my intention, let’s go!”

Outside the tent was the Hu army ready to go. Qin Zhi was riding at the front of the army. He looked back at the two people being dragged behind by the horses and smiled.

He took great pains to capture Xie Jin and Zhao Shu not to keep them for the New Year, he wanted to send them to Qin Su while they were still fresh and hot!

The enemy is at the gate, and the two sides of soldiers are facing off!
Lin Shuo, the general defending the city, recognized Qin Zhi, who was at the forefront of Hu’s army. He was startled, but soon recovered and shouted from the city wall: “Traitor, you are not dead!”

Qin Zhi looked at his face full of fear and anger, and smiled happily: “General Lin, long time no see!”

After saying that, the soldiers around Qin Zhi retreated to both sides, and Xie Jin and Zhao Shu, who were hiding in the team, appeared in front of everyone.

Lin Shuo on the city wall’s eyes flickered slightly, and then he looked at Qin Zhi angrily and said: “Traitor, you…”

Qin Zhi interrupted him with a smile: “General Lin, don’t be angry. I am not protesting to you. I want to discuss a business with your kind-hearted Majesty.”

Lin Shuo was furious: “Traitor, you are worthy of bargaining with His Majesty!”

Qin Zhi’s face darkened. “General Lin, please be careful with your words. You should be thankful that I am still in the mood to bargain with you. Otherwise, Shangjing would no longer be the same as before!”

Lin Shuo held the city wall tightly with both hands, his fingertips turning white. He took a deep breath and said, “How dare you!”

Qin Zhi looked at Lin Shuo with a half-smile: “Looking at General Lin’s attitude, are you going to ask your Majesty to come out and talk to me?”

Lin Shuo said with full force: “Traitor, if you dare to hurt Xie Jin and Zhao Shu, I will grind you to dust!”

Qin Zhi turned his head and looked at Xie Jin: “Xie Shizi, have you ever offended Lin Shuo? Otherwise, why would he keep pushing you into the fire pit?”

Qin Zhi looked at him and clicked his tongue twice: “It seems that you, Master Xie, are not very popular.”

Xie Jin said nothing, but looked at Lin Shuo on the city wall with deep eyes.

Qin Zhi looked at him like this, and sighed with regret again: “But don’t be discouraged, Master Xie. It’s not up to him to decide whether Qin Su comes out or not!”

Qin Zhi smiled sinisterly and clapped his hands lightly, and the Hu soldiers came out of the team, escorting a man with a black hood on his head.

Qin Zhi looked at Lin Shuo and kindly advised: “General Lin, you have to think carefully before you speak.”

Lin Shuo looked at him with disdain: “Traitor, if you have any tricks, just use them. I…”

The soldier took off the black hood on the man’s head, and Lin Shuo’s words fell silent when he saw the man’s face clearly.

Qin Zhi put his sword against the man’s head and said, “General Lin, you should be familiar with this man.”

He has seen this face since he was born, and it is so familiar to him!
Lin Shuo was furious. He grabbed the city wall with both hands and leaned towards the outside of the city wall: “Traitor, if you dare to hurt my son’s hair, I will tear you into pieces!”

Qin Zhi: “That’s easy. As long as General Lin takes the trouble to invite Qin Su out, I promise that I will never hurt your son. On the contrary, I will give you two more lives. General Lin, this deal is a good deal for you no matter how you do it.”

Lin Shuo clenched his fists and said to the soldier beside him in a deep voice: “Go and invite His Majesty here!”

The soldier hesitated: “General, this…”

Lin Shuo shouted angrily, “Go now!”

The soldier was startled and quickly bowed and replied, “Yes!”

Qin Zhi smiled as he watched the scene on the city wall, then turned to Xie Jin and said, “Prince Xie, I wonder if a brave general like you is not as important as General Lin’s weak son.”

“You protected so many people, but in the end they were unwilling to protect you. The people in Beijing are really interesting!”

Xie Jin withdrew his gaze from the city wall and looked at Lin Xun without saying a word.

Qin Zhi smiled with an ambiguous meaning: “I think Master Xie also thinks what I said is very reasonable.”

Xie Jin withdrew his gaze from Lin Xun and glanced at Qin Zhi lightly.

The soldiers knelt in the hall, and the atmosphere inside was tense and silent.

Li Cheng was the first to break the silence: “Your Majesty, the traitor Qin Zhi is clearly trying to lure you out. Your Majesty cannot fall into his trap!”

Qin Su sat on the dragon chair without saying a word. After a moment, he looked at His Highness Xie Jingrong and asked, “What do you think, Duke?”

Xie Jingrong stepped forward and said respectfully, “Your Majesty, what Lord Li said is true. I hope Your Majesty will think twice.”

At this time, You Hong, who had been silent, spoke up hastily: “Your Majesty, General Xie Bu has protected our subjects for many years. How can we abandon him at this time? Wouldn’t this chill the hearts of the soldiers and the people of the world!”

Xie Jingrong turned around and looked at him slowly: “My son is honored to sacrifice for His Majesty and die for the people of this world.”

You Hong had not expected that he would not care about his own son’s life so much, and for a moment he looked a little embarrassed: “Even if we don’t save Military School Xie Bu, we must save the daughter of Marquis Xuanping and Lord Lin’s son!”

Zhao Yao looked at him and said, “Looking at Lord You’s appearance, someone who doesn’t know would think that my daughter is actually Lord You’s daughter.”

It was a very plain sentence, but it startled You Hong. He quickly put on a smile and said, “Your Majesty, you are joking. I am really worried about you, Your Majesty.”

Zhao Yao withdrew his gaze from his face: “Master You is thoughtful.”

You Hong smiled flatteringly: “No, no, these are what I should do.”

You Hong raised his head and looked at the monarch on the dragon throne: “Your Majesty, do you think we should save this man or not?” After what happened just now, he dared not show any emotion on his face, and could only tentatively ask the king on the dragon throne for his decision.

Qin Su looked at You Hong steadily. For some reason, You Hong always felt that this gaze was like a thorn in his back, making him uneasy, but he changed his mind and felt relieved.

Qin Su said softly: “I am the master of the world. If you just hide behind the court officials when encountering problems, I don’t want to sit in this position!”

These words shocked everyone!
You Hong was delighted in his heart, but he didn’t show it on his face. He knelt on his knees, leaned over the ground, and shouted, “Your Majesty, be merciful! Long live Your Majesty!”

Zhao Yao frowned slightly and was about to speak out to dissuade him again, but You Hong saw his move and interrupted him first: “My Lord, this is the decision of His Majesty. Are you questioning His Majesty?”

Zhao Yao’s expression was stern, he clasped his hands together and bowed, saying: “I dare not!”

Qin Zhi’s men followed the horse’s lead from time to time. After a while, he lazily looked up at Lin Shuo on the city wall and said, “Lord Lin, my patience is limited.”

No matter how angry Lin Shuo was, he reluctantly turned back to look at the stairs. Seeing that there was no movement there, he couldn’t help but frown.

Qin Zhi looked up and down at the expression on his face, withdrew his gaze with disdain, snorted, and looked at him with his body slightly tilted back. He spoke to the soldier with a mocking look in his eyes. He spoke in Hu language, and no one could understand what he was saying except the Hu soldiers present.

But judging from the way he spoke, it must not be something good.

Xie Jin glanced at Lin Xun inconspicuously. Normally, according to past circumstances, Lin Xun should have jumped up and cursed at Qin Zhi by now, but he was uncharacteristically silent and did not move at all. It could even be said that he was unusually quiet.

Xie Jin frowned and withdrew his gaze, and their eyes met Zhao Shu’s halfway.

Both of them saw the doubt in each other’s eyes.

But now was not the right time to talk, and the two quickly looked away after their eyes met.

Lin Shuo naturally saw the mockery in the eyes of the Hu soldiers. His face turned pale and he ordered the soldiers beside him in a deep voice to go into the palace to check the situation.

But just as he finished giving the order, there was a sound coming from the stairs behind him. It was You Hong’s flattering voice: “Your Majesty, be careful with the stairs.”

Lin Shuo was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around and walked towards the stairs.

When the edge of the bright yellow robe appeared at the corner, Lin Shuo knelt down and said, “Welcome, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!”

The bright yellow robe was getting closer and closer, and when it was right in front of him, Lin Shuo bowed his back more respectfully.

Qin Su looked at Lin Shuo who was kneeling on the ground gently and said, “My dear, please stand up.”

Lin Shuo kowtowed on the ground and said, “I am guilty, I dare not stand up.”

Qin Su raised his eyebrows slightly: “My dear, your words really confused me. What crime have you committed?”

Lin Shuo kowtowed again: “I deserve to die for putting Your Majesty in danger for my own selfish desires!”

Qin Su asked curiously: “What do you mean by your own selfish desires, my dear?”

Lin Shuo’s voice was sincere and guilty: “Now that things have come to this, I don’t want to make any more excuses. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me!”

Qin Su’s eyes turned cold, but his voice was as gentle as before: “Just say it when I tell you to.”

You Hong looked at the man kneeling on the ground with a slightly anxious expression. Before Lin Shuo could speak, he said hastily, “Lord Lin, please speak. His Majesty will understand your painstaking efforts. Besides, His Majesty is kind and I think he will not blame you!”

After You Hong finished speaking, he looked anxiously at Lin Shuo, completely unaware of the meaningful look cast at him from the side.

The air was silent for a long while, and finally, Lin Shuo spoke: “I deserve to die! My only son is in the hands of that traitor. If I were the one in the hands of that traitor, I would never become his bargaining chip. But facing my useless child, I really can’t bear it. He, he is my only child. If he goes to see our ancestors before me, then I really won’t have the face to see them again a hundred years later!”

When You Hong heard his words, he was almost sweating. After holding back for a long time, he couldn’t help but speak: “Master Lin, just tell the truth!”

Qin Su glanced at You Hong and raised his eyebrows curiously: “According to You Hong, is there another hidden story behind this matter?”

Lin Shuo knelt on the ground without saying anything. You Hong spoke again in a hurry: “Master Lin, please tell His Majesty everything!”

Qin Su looked at Lin Shuo leisurely, but his voice was deliberately lowered: “You deceived me like this, isn’t it a crime of deceiving the emperor?”

Lin Shuo finally responded again, and bowed his head to the ground: “I do have a selfish motive!”

Qin Su: “Oh, tell me about it.”

“That traitor not only has my unfilial son in his hands, but also Xie Bu, the military commander who has protected the border for many years, and Zhao Shu, the eldest daughter of Marquis Xuanping.”

“Now both of them are in the hands of the traitors. I cannot bear to watch Your Majesty lose a beloved general, nor can I bear to watch the people of the world lose a general who truly protects them and works for them!”

After saying this, Lin Shuo slammed his head heavily on the ground: “I deserve to die!”

Qin Su nodded seriously: “You really deserve to die.”

Hearing this, You Hong’s originally nervous expression suddenly turned into panic, and he lowered his head, not daring to breathe.

But the person who should be most afraid was kneeling with a normal expression, not making any excuses for himself, and even agreeing with His Majesty’s words: “I deserve to die, Your Majesty, please grant me death!”

Qin Su looked at him with dark eyes. When everyone’s anxiety gradually grew, he chuckled: “Why are you so nervous?”

Although You Hong was afraid, his old spirit of flattery came back to him, and he could not help but say the following flattering words: “Your Majesty is here, and we are all welcome to do our best to flatter you.”
It is like walking on thin ice with fear and trepidation. “

By the time he came to his senses, the words had already been spoken and it was too late to regret. He could only carefully raise his head to check the emperor’s expression. Seeing that he was not angry because of what he said, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It’s good that he is not angry. If he is angry, he might be the first one among this group of people to reunite with his ancestors!

Qin Su didn’t say anything else. His bright yellow robe brushed against the back of Lin Shuo’s hand and he said calmly, “Let’s go.”

The bright yellow robe disappeared from sight, and everyone followed it. You Hong looked at the monarch in front of him and deliberately fell at the back of the crowd.

After a moment, he came in front of Lin Shuo and whispered, “Master Lin? Master Lin?”

Lin Shuo stood up calmly and raised his hand to shake the edge of his robe.

Looking at his unhurried movements, You Hong spoke cautiously: “Lord Lin, what do you think His Majesty means?”

Lin said, glancing at him lightly, “How can you and I guess what is in your majesty’s mind?” After he finished speaking, he raised his foot and followed him.

“Then Lord Lin, what are you considering?” You Hong looked up in confusion, and saw that the person in front of him had walked to the side of His Majesty without him knowing when.

You Hong immediately swallowed the words on his lips, looked around, and hurriedly followed.
