Chapter 80: Reveal the stuffing
Although this place has moved out of the palace, it is still a place where only the nobles of Chu State would stay. As soon as he heard someone's voice, Xiang Liang listened attentively, and Fusu naturally heard it clearly when he was beside him.
"Miss, it's true that Zhou Wei brought us to Kuaiji and then left us alone. He asked us to be with those soldiers, so don't suffocate us to death." Fusu knew it was Qing Ming as soon as he heard this.
Miss Yu didn't think as much as Qing Ming did. She said: "This time Zhou Chang Shi Lai also has important matters to attend to. He can't help but accompany us around without completing uncle's arrangements. And you and I didn't tell him that.
.....”
Before she finished speaking, Qing Ming interrupted: "Miss, it's true that you are still speaking for him at this time, and you don't even know that we, a woman, have lost our way in this strange place.
I'm going back to the inn." She was crying a little bit as she spoke.
"Don't worry, we will definitely send people to look for him when he disappears after he goes back. Kuaiji County is not big, so he will naturally find us." Miss Yu comforted her maid.
"But I don't know how long he will drink. Why do I feel that it is a bit cold today." Qing Ming said fearfully.
Fusu felt a little funny listening to their conversation, but he couldn't walk out now, otherwise the fact that they were girls would be exposed. But Xiang Liang obviously had no intention of giving Fusu a chance to explain.
After getting lost and being acquainted with Fusu, he hurriedly said: "You two girls, Mr. Zhou Wei is here, you don't have to worry."
As soon as he heard him say hello, Fusu wanted to run away. At the same time, a scream of "Ah" came from the two women. But they also knew that their words had been heard, so they had to follow the sound and walked over.
When he saw Fusu and Xiang Liang standing together, Fusu's face was also full of embarrassment.
"Okay, since you have friends here, I'll take my leave." Xiang Liang said to Fu Su, "I hope Mr. Zhou can consider my proposal." He turned around and left.
Fusu watched the guy who had revealed the secret leave without hesitation, and really wanted to drag him back and give him a good beating, but he could only think about it in his mind.
Miss Yu glanced at Fusu and said, "When did Mr. Zhou come here? What did you hear?"
"I...I just walked out of the palace, um...I almost heard your conversation." Fusu said awkwardly.
"Ah? Then you know the identity of me and the lady?" Qing Ming, who was outspoken, asked loudly.
"Qing Ming!" Miss Yu glanced at her girl angrily and said anxiously, "Can't you keep your voice down?"
"Ah? Oh!" Qing Ming also knew that his voice was too loud, so he stuck out his tongue and nodded.
Fusu smiled bitterly and said: "Let's go back to Guanyi first and then talk about it." As he said that, he took the lead and headed towards Guanyi. The two women looked at each other and followed behind him. None of the three of them spoke during the whole journey.
The atmosphere was a little strange. Originally, the three of them were still deceiving themselves and saying that they were all men. Now that the identities of two of them as women were exposed, they didn't know what to say.
After returning to the post in silence, Fusu cupped his hands and said, "You two... girls, please rest early. You are tired today." After saying this, he ran away.
Qing Ming, who was still a little embarrassed at first, saw Fusu's embarrassed expression and burst out laughing: "I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to be so scared after knowing that we are women."
Miss Yu felt a little ridiculous when she thought about it, and the uneasy mood on her face improved a lot, but then she thought that if he knew her identity, how to return to Jiujiang would become a problem, and the smile on her face lost again.
After Fu Su returned to the room, he felt that this was a coincidence. He had always wanted to hide the secret that he knew the identity of the two women, but Xiang Liang revealed it. It seemed that the relationship between him and the two women would definitely be different.
, thinking of this, Fusu felt a little uncomfortable unconsciously.
That night, neither Fusu nor Miss Yu slept well.
Early the next morning, when Fu Su got up and opened the door, he saw Qing Ming standing in front of his room. Fu Su said funnyly: "Why are you standing outside my room so early in the morning? Do you want to scare people?"
"I...my lady wants to see you for something, but since you are still sleeping, I can't disturb you, so I have to wait for you outside. Since you are already up, let's go to our room." After that.
Words lead the way.
Fusu followed her to her room with some strangeness and said, "Is it convenient for me to go in?"
"What's the inconvenience?" Qing Ming looked at him strangely, stretched out his hand to push open the door and said: "Come in."
Fu Su entered the room and saw Miss Yu standing in front of the bed still wearing the same man's clothes. When she saw him coming in, her face turned red and she said to Qing Ming: "Go out and watch, don't let anyone hear what I'm doing."
Young Master’s Conversation.”
After Qing Ming went out, she said to Fusu: "Master Zhou, please have a seat." She pointed to the seat.
Fusu sat down politely and said, "Miss Yu, why did you ask people to wait in front of my door so early?"
"You should call me Young Master now. After all, I have to go back to Jiujiang with you." Miss Yu quickly corrected his title.
Fusu smiled and said: "Okay, since you said so, I will obey your orders, but I don't know why Mr. Yu asked me to come?"
"That's why." Miss Yu swallowed her saliva and said, "I don't want everyone to know that I am a woman, so I hope Mr. Zhou can help me keep this secret."
"Well, you really can't let too many people know that you are a woman. This will not be good for our behavior, so I will agree to you." Fusu thought for a moment and agreed to Miss Yu's request, then smiled and said:
"I don't know what Mr. Yu's name is yet. Can you tell me?"
Miss Yu was relieved when she heard that he promised that she would keep this secret, but she felt a little strange when he asked her name. The other party had never asked her name before, so why did she come as soon as she knew that she was a woman?
She asked. But she still told her honestly: "My name is Yu Ziyan."
Fusu was also influenced by later generations and believed that asking a woman's name in ancient times was the work of a disciple. But in fact, it was after the Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism became popular. This was not emphasized in the Qin Dynasty. I don't know today.
What happened? Instead, he had the courage to ask. After hearing the other party's answer, Fusu immediately verified it with the history in his mind. Unfortunately, he had no idea what the name of Yu Ji was in history, so it was all in vain.
."Is there anything else you would like to give me, Mr. Yu?"
"No, by the way, when are we going back to Jiujiang?" Now that her identity was exposed, Yu Ziyan no longer had the idea of taking a good tour and just wanted to go back as soon as possible.
"Although King Chu's celebration party has ended, we still have to go to General Xiang's house to congratulate him, and we will have to wait for a few days." Fusu thought for a moment and said.
The two chatted for a few more words, and then Fusu got up and went back to his room. Because Yu Ziyan's identity was exposed, the two of them could no longer chat as before.
Just as the Chu State was rejoicing that Xiang Yu could take over Donghai County in one fell swoop, Qin State's attack on Chu State had already begun. After all, it was Hu Hai who defeated Zhao Gao this time. Not only did Qin State not send Zhang Han out,
Instead, Zhao Changke and Bai Ban were asked to lead tens of thousands of troops to attack the Chu State. Hu Hai obviously did not want the two to conquer the Chu State too quickly, so he ordered Zhang Han to bring tens of thousands to guard Hangu Pass.
The elite soldiers returned to Hangu Pass. The 100,000 troops led by Zhao and Bai were just the people who originally conquered Fusu and Zhao. It can be said that their combat effectiveness was not very strong.
But when they thought about it, the Chu State could still be easily defeated, so they didn't have much objection to Hu Hai's arrangement. Only Zhao Gao was very angry because the officials responsible for the army's logistics and food supplies this time were not from Zhao Gao's line.
Instead, it was a royal child named Ziying who had never performed well in the court. But this time, several of Zhao Gao's chess moves were cleverly cracked by Hu Hai, so he could not object for a while and had to take it.
for this loss.
The middle-aged scribe in the palace thanked Hu Hai and said, "Thank you very much to the emperor for giving Ziying this opportunity to contribute to our great Qin. Ziying will definitely live up to the emperor's trust." He was Ziying, the son of Qin Shihuang's brother Cheng Qiao.
.He has always been by Hu Hai's side, advising him on how to deal with Zhao Gao.
"I hope you won't disappoint me." Hu Hai looked at him with a smile and said, "After a large number of Chu's troops are reduced, the two lackeys of Zhao Gao will die."
"Of course, I shall act in accordance with the emperor's instructions." Ziying also had a smile on his face, as if Zhao Changke and Bai Ban had become playthings in their hands, capable of destroying them with a single backhand.
The army advanced. Zhao Changke and Bai Ban were in the same car. Looking at the well-equipped Qin soldiers, Bai Ban sighed. Zhao Changke smiled and said, "Why are you worried, general?"
"General Zhao, don't you think there is something wrong with our expedition this time? Why did the emperor transfer the elite soldiers back to Hangu and let the royal family take charge of the food and grass? I'm afraid this battle will not go well." Bai Ban frowned.
"General Bai is too worried. With my brother Zhao Gao taking care of you in the court, it is not easy for you and me to make meritorious deeds. Moreover, the army in Chu is not as sophisticated as my Qin army. We don't need Hangu's troops."
Elite soldiers can still destroy them." Unlike the day shift, he was full of confidence.
"I hope it will be as you said." Bai Ban missed the time when he and Zhang Han sent troops together.
A banquet was being held at Xiang Liang's Mansion in the Chu land. Almost all the officials of Chu State were invited, and Fusu was naturally among them. Just when everyone was enjoying themselves, a man with a long history of work broke in and said, "General Xiang, don't you?"
