The Queen of War

The rolling heat wave hit people one after another. Everyone's face was like a pickled pig liver. Xia Yingchun liked to eat iced sour plum soup, but because she was pregnant, she couldn't eat cold things. She had to soak the tea in the newly drawn well water for a while to get its coolness. Even so, she still felt hot. She was already very plump. She was a little upset in the heat.

However, Zhong Wuyan is not afraid of heat. She has suffered too much since she was a child. It seems that nothing can frighten her, whether it is cold or hot. Although the memory before the age of seven is a blank in Zhong Wuyan's mind, she vaguely feels that her childhood is not happy. It must be a childhood full of holes. I remember GUI GuZi said that she was doomed to many disasters. How could she expect her to have a happy life?

She placed a banquet in Fengyu palace and invited Tian Ji and Sun Bin to sit with her and entertain Su Qin.

It was a hot summer, so Zhong Wuyan put the banquet in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. The water is surrounded here. The lotus flowers in the lake are just blooming. When the cool wind blows, the graceful lotus sways slightly, like a beautiful fairy dancing in the wind. The Lake Pavilion is not only beautiful, but also very cool.

"It's elder martial brother Su, Tian Ji. Here's to you!" Tian Ji has been reluctant to meet people since his defeat. Apart from visiting Zhong Wuyan occasionally, he basically doesn't contact others.

Seeing the famous Su Qin, he had mixed feelings. He was also a disciple of Guiguzi, but Su Qin ran between the seven countries with a three inch tongue. He finally had a chance to stand out, but he was beaten by a mere Wu Qi. Tian Ji has always admired Su Qin. He is the first proud disciple of Guiguzi and the idol in Tian Ji's heart. It was su Qin who let Tian Ji know that it was not necessarily force to defeat thousands of troops. The magic weapon that Su Qin relied on to win was something Tian Ji would never learn.

After hearing this, Su Qin smiled faintly and raised his cup with both hands: "I've heard a lot about younger martial brother. As soon as I saw him today, he really deserves his name!"

Although he was looking at Tian Ji, the remaining light from the corner of his eye glanced at Sun Bin, who was just eating for himself.

"This man is definitely not simple!" Su Qin thought secretly, "Tian Ji is naturally not a layman. Shifu will never accept people with mediocre qualifications as disciples. This Sun Bin is not simple. Although he made outstanding military achievements when he killed Yan, his glory was hidden under the light of Zhong Wuyan. If I guess correctly, he will have something in the future and be the best military division among the seven countries!"

Zhong Wuyan saw that Yu guangpiao in the corner of Su Qin's eye glanced at Sun Bin, and smiled gently.

"It's boring to have wine without music." she turned her face, smiled and said to the autumn moon, "why don't you sing a little song!"

After hearing this, Qiuyue said with a smile, "everyone has seen the world and must have heard a lot of good songs. Qiuyue is not good at singing. Just listen to your throat."

She looks very beautiful today. She has changed into a small broken flower jacket she used to wear in Taohua mountain. A silk flower is obliquely inserted on her head, which gives her a bit of a different charm. However, although she is dressed as a village girl, she doesn't look like a country girl. Since the autumn moon entered the palace, her skin has become white and beautiful.

"Ha ha!" Su Qin couldn't help laughing, "it's not bad that we are from Taohua mountain. This girl's mouth is more powerful than a lobbyist! If you are a girl, we big men will have to drink the West and north wind!"

Compared with Zhong Wuyan and Tian Ji, Qiuyue is really more talkative. Su Qin likes such talkative and smart people. Qiuyue is young and looks very cute, which makes him vaguely return to his green age and the season of rotten peach blossoms.

"Don't laugh at me!" Qiuyue laughed, but she wasn't shy. "If I were so powerful, my master would have accepted me as an apprentice. My master once said that I don't have a string in my brain. If you want to be smart, you can change the brain of the black donkey in the backyard for me."

Upon hearing this, even Sun Bin, who had been eating all the time, burst out laughing, and the food in his mouth sprayed all over the table.

The autumn moon cleared her throat and sang softly, "don't be sad at night in the red chamber. The incense lamp is half a tassel tent. When the waning moon goes out, the beauty and tears say. The lute is golden and green, and the yellow warbler on the string. Advise me to go home early. The green window is like a flower."

Her voice is very clear, like a yellow warbler out of the valley, beautiful and beautiful.

Zhong Wuyan's eyes fell on Su Qin's pale face. His eyes gradually became dignified, and the faint smile also froze on his face. His face became more and more ugly.

"OK!" Tian Ji didn't notice Su Qin's face and clapped, "I didn't expect that autumn moon has this skill! This voice is like a yellow warbler. Moreover, our autumn moon has really grown up. It looks like there is no similarity with the little girl with a runny nose on the peach blossom mountain!"

Among the men present, he is the only one who knows the autumn moon best, so he took the lead in clapping his hands. In fact, his heart is not happy, and the shadow of defeat against Lu has always enveloped him.

Sun Bin stopped eating, and his eyes fell on Su Qin's face.

Su Qin looked at the beautiful flower like face of the autumn moon and looked in a trance. However, this trance was just a moment, and he immediately recovered his calm.

"Zhong Wuyan, you're playing this again!" he thought bitterly, "you want to find my weakness! Since you know this poem, don't you know that my heart of Su Qin is dead? She's married and has nothing to do with me of Su Qin!"

However, his face did not show any anger, but showed a faint smile.

"The autumn moon sings really well!" Su Qin clapped softly and said with a smile, "we came out of Taohua mountain, but we are different. But I don't know what unique skill Mr. Sun has? Let's enjoy it?"

He was full of great interest in Sun Bin. Su Qin felt that there was a mysterious smell on Sun Bin. Although he was disabled, his pride could not be covered by anything.

"I don't know anything. I can only eat." Sun Bin said with a sneer, "in fact, this is a gathering of Taohua mountain disciples. I shouldn't have come. But the queen pity me for being alone, so she let me join in the fun. In fact, I'm a useless person. What can I do? I can only make up books casually."

The more modest he was, the greater Su Qin's interest in him.

Seeing that Su Qin wanted to deliberately change the topic, Zhong Wuyan smiled: "Mr. Sun, how is the autumn moon singing?"

"Yes, of course!" Sun Bin smiled. "The voice is very clear. I haven't heard such a beautiful song for a long time."

After hearing this, Qiuyue couldn't help laughing and said, "even Mr. Sun is teasing Qiuyue. In fact, this song is also new. I learned it by listening to an old maid in the cold palace sing occasionally."

After hearing this, Sun Bin frowned slightly, and his eyes fell on the wine glass in his hand: "good is good, but how does it sound like a small tune of the state of Yan?"

As he spoke, the remaining light from the corner of his eye glanced at Su Qin.

The purpose of Su Qin's envoy to Qi had already been spread outside the palace, and Sun Bin had no reason not to know. Sun Bin also contributed to the attack on the state of Yan. Where was he willing to give up easily?
