The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 373 How to Help Smooth things over

Qiao Jiuxiu's face became paler, knowing that Chu Dichen could not be involved in this matter, otherwise all the hard work these days would collapse in an instant, and even leaving with Qinghe would be meaningless.Then she would really be a sinner.He bit his lips even tighter, and there was some blood faintly.However, I still don't know how to speak.She was looking for a sufficient reason to deal with General Wen's questioning, and to convince him that this matter really had nothing to do with Chu Dichen.

However, General Wen is a veteran of the rivers and lakes, and it is really not an easy task to deceive him.Qiao Jiuxiu frowned slightly, and after a long time, she opened her mouth softly, with some smiles, but in that smile, there were more trembling and guilt.But his appearance was as calm as water, but it made General Wen show a slight appreciation.Few people can behave so calmly in front of themselves, and it's still a woman.

However, Qiao Jiuxiu is one thing in his heart, but if Qiao Jiuxiu is really a member of the Ninth Prince, then he has no choice but to be an enemy.What he said just now is serious, since he has followed the Ninth Prince, there is no turning back.As generals, what they value most is loyalty. If they don't even have such loyalty, they will only be cast aside by the people around them.This is not what he expected to get.

After fighting on the battlefield for many years, he also wanted a good reputation.

Qiao Jiuxiu spoke slowly, there was no trace of tension in her voice, only trembling unconsciously and showing the panic in her heart, "General Wen was joking, how can I be a member of the Ninth Prince? But what did he do to me, no matter how shameless I am, I won't have to look back." She chuckled lightly, trying to explain the matter to Chu Dichen with such a simple sentence.If she said something bad about Chu Dichen at this time, it would definitely have a very good effect, but she didn't want to pour such dirty water on Chu Dichen.

Moreover, she had no way to slander him from her own mouth.In her heart, Chu Dichen had always been perfect.When General Wen heard this, not only did he not show a relaxed expression, but his eyes sharpened, clearly guessing how much of what Qiao Jiuxiu said was true.Qiao Jiuxiu knew that her reason just now was indeed a little weak, bit her lips lightly, and said again, "I really have nothing to do with the Ninth Prince, if General Ye doesn't believe it, then this matter can only be forgotten .”

General Wen nodded lightly, and a faint smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth. He knew that Qiao Jiuxiu's backbone was absolutely impossible to help Chu Dichen after suffering such a big grievance.And these days, he is clear about everything between the two of them.So I also know that even if Qiao Jiuxiu wants to turn back, there is no way to turn back.But if this matter is not arranged by Chu Dichen, then who is it?
General Wen thought of Ye Yulang quite normally, and now that Qiao Jiuxiu was Ye Yulang's wife, he had to make plans for him.But the third prince had just told him that Ye Yulang was one of his own, and he had no reason to do such a thing to divide the power of the third prince.As a result, the danger in his eyes deepened, and his voice became deeper and deeper, "Then I'd like to ask Madam Ye to explain clearly, who exactly meant this?"

Qiao Jiuxiu bit her lip, knowing that if she said at this time that all of this was just his own idea, such nonsense, not to mention that General Wen would not believe it, even if she was herself, she would not believe it.He could only bite the bullet and say, "General Wen thinks, whose idea should this matter be?"

"Ye Yulang." Although it was just a guess, General Wen said it with certainty, as if he had already confirmed the answer.Qiao Jiuxiu was slightly relieved when he heard that he no longer doubted Chu Dichen, but how could he make him feel that Ye Yulang was not in danger?Qiao Jiuxiu pondered, this is also a tricky question.Both Ye Yulang and Chu Dichen were unwilling to let her have contact with General Wen before, for this reason, they were afraid that she would not be able to persuade her, and would cause a lot of trouble for herself.

But she also knows that she can't mess up now.Wei Wei had already thought of a good plan in her heart, and after some hesitation, she said, "General Wen, this matter is indeed related to Yulang, but he didn't ask me to say it."

"En?" General Wen was very happy, and things turned out as he predicted. Knowing that Qiao Jiuxiu had hidden a sentence, he followed her words and asked, "Oh? But I have already heard from the third prince that General Ye is one of his own. If he was one of his own, why did he want me to leave the Third Prince? Although I don't have much ability, but in the current situation, with my strength, the possibility of success will be much greater."

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, the expression on his face became more and more embarrassed, but this time the expression was somewhat unnatural, but General Wen was still immersed in the question just now, so he didn't notice the abnormality on Qiao Jiuxiu's face.She continued to say, "It's true. It's just my momentary confusion."

"I would like to hear the details." Seeing that Qiao Jiuxiu didn't speak, General Wen was eager to know why Qiao Jiuxiu blamed himself for this matter.Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, her voice was very slow, she was clearly thinking while she spoke, "I think if the Third Prince's event has been accomplished, it is natural to reward him for his merits. At that time, both the husband and the general will be highly promoted. There can only be one person who holds the military power. General Wen has been with the prince for more than ten years, and the credit is self-evident. I thought that if I want my husband to be in power, I can only get rid of the general, so I came to persuade you to leave The camp of the third prince. Since you have seen through this matter, I have nothing to say."

General Wen showed a slightly dazed expression on his face, he definitely never expected to hear such words from Qiao Jiuxiu's mouth.Before Qiao Jiuxiu opened his mouth, he also thought about why Ye Yulang would attack him, but he couldn't think of a reasonable explanation.But for some reason, after hearing what Qiao Jiuxiu said, he only felt that this matter might be possible.And the possibility is very high.There was a faint cold sweat on his forehead. It turned out that Ye Yulang planned to get rid of himself and replace him.

Why didn't he see before that Ye Yulang had such ambitions?But a tiger father has no dogs. After all, Ye Yulang is the son of General Ye. He has an inexplicable liking for military power since he was a child. It is very reasonable to do such a thing.Wei Wei let out a sigh of relief, knowing that this matter is not easy to resolve, but Qiao Jiuxiu said, "Of course, getting rid of you is just my personal idea. You have made a lot of achievements, but your husband has not accomplished an inch. So for his future, That's all I can do."

Qiao Jiuxiu's words made General Wen sigh. It turned out that this matter was only Qiao Jiuxiu's intention. I have seen that, in order to get General Ye to take the position, Mrs. Ye did everything she could. If the old man hadn't been determined, I'm afraid you would have persuaded her. But don't worry, this world is always dominated by young people, and this old man is old. Now, even if you really control the military power, won't you have to give it up in the end? Don't be too impatient about everything."

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, showing a very educated look, so she asked the general and continued, "Besides, the foundation of the third prince is still unstable. If I quit at this time, I don't know what the end of his battle with the emperor is. It will be up to whoever wins. Mrs. Ye should know that if the third prince fails, let alone whether General Ye can succeed in the future, even his life will be lost."

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, knowing that General Wen had already believed her words, she was naturally happy to be educated by General Wen now, so that he would not lead the matter to Chu Dichen, nor would he doubt Ye Yulang's loyalty to the Third Prince.In this way, she will not destroy the whole big plan, which is a blessing in misfortune.A big stone in my heart fell to the ground, so General Tong Wen said.

"Yes, yes, I was really wrong about this matter. After all, it is a woman's opinion, and there are many things that I have not considered. The general taught me the lesson, Jiumei knew it was wrong." She looked at it with grievances. General Wen glanced at him, "I just want to ask General one thing, don't talk to Yulang about our conversation, I'm afraid he will get angry with me if he finds out, and even divorce me. Come here, the general knows the hardships, so please give me a way to survive."

General Wen nodded, very simply.What Qiao Jiuxiu did was simply asking to pave the way for Ye Yulang's future career, without any other intentions.If he told Ye Yulang about this, he would definitely be angry, and there was no need to think about it, and because of Qiao Shanxiu's matter, he had always owed Qiao's family something, so this time it could be considered as paying them back.But he still reminded, "Mrs. Ye, you and I are smart people. If we know this kind of thing, it won't happen again, right?"

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded quickly, thankfully this matter was resolved, in fact, she had too much uneasiness in her heart before, for fear that something might go wrong in this matter, and General Wen would see something, but now it seems that she is nervous .Things went well according to her idea.It's just a reminder that next time, when you do things by yourself, you have to be more careful.So he got up slowly, saying that it was getting late and he had to leave.

General Wen didn't try to keep her, and asked Mrs. Wen to send Qiao Jiuxiu out. Mrs. Wen sent Qiao Jiuxiu to the door, and told her a few more words.She really wanted to be friends with Qiao Jiuxiu.So remind her that women really don't want to interfere with the affairs of the DPRK.Qiao Jiuxiu smiled wryly, of course she knew this truth, but she had no way of turning back.
