The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 377 The General's Answer Is Too Simple

Seeing Ye Yulang nodding, General Wu believed his somewhat exaggerated assumption.Shaking his head slightly, it seemed that there was some hatred in his words, "I really never thought that you would agree to such an exaggerated request from the Ninth Prince." From General Wu's point of view, agreeing to a fake marriage with Qiao Jiuxiu seems to be a A matter that wronged Ye Yulang very much, but for Qiao Jiuxiu he actually did it.Ye Yulang shrugged slightly, expressing that he didn't care much about this matter.

Qiao Jiuxiu also showed some embarrassment and embarrassment, but she didn't know the next question of General Wu, which made her not know how to deal with herself.General Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Well, I think you should really like Miss Jiu of the Qiao family, so you never thought about making this fake thing real?"

Ye Yulang's face turned pale. He had never thought of this before, but for some reason, hearing General Wu say this, he felt a faint twinge of distress in his heart.It was as if a sharp knife had cut a deep wound in his heart.Seeing Ye Yulang's expression like this, Qiao Jiuxiu also felt very uncomfortable, and pulled Ye Yulang's sleeve slightly to make Ye Yulang smile at her, "It's okay, I just wanted to protect Qiao Jiuxiu from the very beginning. Don't let her suffer any harm, as for who she belongs to, this is not the key to the problem, and she is far happier following Chu Dichen than following me."

Although there was a lot of reluctance in his heart, Ye Yulang still said this sentence to show that he had no intention of possessing Qiao Jiuxiu.However, his eyes slightly turned Ling Ran, "How did you know that I like Jiumei?"

General Wu shrugged slightly, with a playful expression on his face, "This is a very simple and easy to see thing. As you know, we neutrals are nothing but fools, you know, in In the world of grass on the wall, it is very important to observe words and expressions, and when you look at Miss Qiao Jiajiu, there are too many strong feelings in your eyes, so it is not difficult to find out. Of course, the way she looks at you is also very unusual , but that look is more apology than liking."

Qiao Jiuxiu bit her lip, he could indeed see very clearly.I didn't want to get entangled with this issue any more, so I changed the subject and stopped making any cover-ups, and said straightforwardly, "Okay, General Wu, I want to know, are you going to join us? Or continue How about maintaining your neutrality? Or maybe, are you planning to be an enemy?"

General Wu looked at Qiao Jiuxiu playfully, with a casual smile on his face, "If I say I am an enemy, what will Miss Qiao think? What are the benefits of being friends?" He The sharpness in his eyes made Qiao Jiuxiu see that he was not simple, and the danger in his words also faintly made Qiao Jiuxiu feel uneasy.It was almost after being dull for a long time that Ye Yulang who was at the side spoke.

"If you are a friend, you will naturally welcome him with open arms. But if you are an enemy, you can only die by my sword. As for the neutral faction, General Wu is also a smart person. You should know that there is no eternal neutrality in this world. Sooner or later you We all need to make a choice, since we must face a choice, why not make a choice earlier?"

Qiao Jiuxiu also had a faint smile on her face, as if she had approved what Ye Yulang said just now.General Wu nodded slightly, and seemed to agree with this sentence.But he looked at Ye Yulang, "Can I ask, why did you choose the Ninth Prince? Is it just because of Miss Qiao's family?"

Ye Yulang frowned slightly. He didn't intend to intervene in the disputes in the court, and he wanted to be like those scumbags, keeping a wait-and-see attitude, not supporting anyone or favoring anyone, just doing his own thing well.But he didn't expect Qiao Jiuxiu to choose Chu Dichen, he had no choice but to follow Qiao Jiuxiu's choice.He had a simple thought at the time, if he could not help Qiao Jiuxiu, he would be destroyed with her, that would be great.

But this cannot be said to General Wu. If you tell him that the original motive for joining Chu Dichen's camp was only because of a woman, then General Wu will definitely make fun of him, and General Wu will think that it is impossible to ally with such a person. I can't get any benefit at all, so I will abandon myself.Although he said that he didn't mind being an enemy with General Wu when he stated his position just now, but it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

But General Wu is so cunning, and Ye Yulang doesn't know how to speak to convince General Wu that he is not in the same boat as Chu Dichen because of Qiao Jiuxiu.Although Ye Yulang didn't open his mouth, General Wu already understood three points, and the smile on his face was even worse. All of this was exactly the same as what he had inferred in his heart. With a faint smile on his face, it took a long time before he opened his mouth. Said, "If so, I understand."

Qiao Jiuxiu looked at General Wu uneasily. Both she and Ye Yulang didn't like the feeling of being seen through, and the expression on her face became more and more awkward. After a while, Ye Yulang opened his mouth. Not wanting to make unnecessary explanations and justifications, he simply expressed the most sincere thoughts in his heart, "Okay, let me tell you the truth. It's because of Jiumei."

Qiao Jiuxiu shuddered, although she knew Ye Yulang would say that, but when those words came from his mouth, her heart was still the same, she was full of emotion, touched that a person would give so much for herself.But he was also worried that Ye Yulang would also be implicated when Chu Dichen failed, and it must be very dangerous for him to contact the Third Prince as an undercover agent.She bit her lips even tighter. If this day really came to pass, she really didn't know how to repay what she owed Ye Yulang.

She wanted to repay what she owed to Ye Yulang one by one, but Ye Yulang didn't like Qiao Jiuxiu to care about him. He just habitually handed over everything he had to Qiao Jiuxiu, as long as she could be happy. Nothing else is required.Qiao Jiuxiu was very sad because she knew that Ye Yulang had such intentions.General Wu looked at Ye Yulang, then at Qiao Jiuxiu, and suddenly nodded.

Qiao Jiuxiu was a little surprised, what did he mean by nodding at this juncture?However, I found that Ye Yulang also had the same expression. It was probably after a slight pause that General Wu said, "What are you still doing? Can you tell me the plan?" General Wu's words surprised Qiao Jiuxiu and Ye Yulang even more.

This General Wu must have been a bit too straightforward, before they even spoke to persuade him, he actually agreed, and he was very straightforward, as if he had already thought about it before they came to him.Qiao Jiuxiu bit her lip, and after thinking about it, General Wu said, "It's been a long time since the two factions have been fighting each other. You must know that this situation will not continue forever. As one ebbs and another grows, There will always be an explosion one day, and the current situation is roughly evenly matched, so I, like everyone else, maintain a spectator attitude, and at the same time make up my mind that when someone comes to persuade me, I will join him in the camp."

Hearing this, Qiao Jiuxiu already knew that General Wu really planned to be in the same camp with them, so she let out a slightly teasing tone, "But what if the person who came was from the third prince? Did you just follow him?" ? This is a bit too casual."

"Perhaps." General Wu shook his head lightly, without arguing for himself, "If Chu Dimo ​​really came looking for me, I would follow him. So you should be thankful that you arrived first, and Chu Dimo ​​seems to be I don’t want my help until now, so I can’t stand in front of him and say that I want to be in the same camp as him, it’s a bit too emboldened.”

Qiao Jiuxiu couldn't help chuckling, she didn't expect General Wu's thoughts to be so simple.But the simpler the idea, the deeper the truth inside.On the surface, General Wu made a seemingly random choice, but he had actually thought through the answer several times in his mind.Voluntary surrender will arouse suspicion on the one hand, and will not be reused much on the other. That's why he thought that with this method, the volunteers will be hooked and choose the most suitable alliance for himself.

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded. Someone who can think of such a way is indeed admirable and terrifying, but fortunately, he is now in the same camp. Otherwise, it would be difficult to be wary of someone like General Wu.However, General Wu smiled slightly, and said, "Of course, my choice is somewhat selfish. Miss Qiao Jiajiu has a very good relationship with Wuxiu. She has suffered a lot of grievances with me, and I also You have to do something for her."

Qiao Jiuxiu looked at General Wu with some surprises. Sure enough, people can change. His current appearance is very different from the rumored one who is very strict with his wife at home. Is there really such a time? Is the thing, or everything, nothing but fiction?Qiao Jiuxiu really didn't know.But now is not the time to talk about it, knowing that General Wu has chosen them, Qiao Jiuxiu and Ye Yulang are also very happy, and tell General Wu about their original plan.General Wu nodded in agreement.

Because Ye Yulang is still a member of the Third Prince on the surface, General Wu didn't look too happy and sent them away coldly. Outsiders seemed to think that General Wu and Ye Yulang should have quarreled, but they didn't Know that they have tentatively reached an agreement.
