The hall suddenly became quiet.

Not only us, but even those singers and musicians, as well as the attendants and guards serving on both sides, all looked at Tu Shuhan nervously.

This is definitely not his decision alone, and his decision is not only about one person. If you want to fight, it means killing thousands of troops. If you win, the people around you will ascend to heaven; if you lose, all the previous contributions will be destroyed.

He can't be cautious.

I almost even held my breath, looked at Tu Shuhan with wide eyes, and his expression seemed particularly solemn. A pair of introverted eyes stared at the bone-clearing knife in my hand, and the bright sword light flashed through his eyes.

This silence lasted for a long time, and the hall was so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard. In the end, even the sound of the wind outside seemed harsh.

After Liu Qinghan finished speaking, Tu Shuhan became silent.

We all looked at him nervously, but didn't say anything anymore. Now is the time for him to make a decision after measuring gains and losses, so it's best not to disturb him.

For a moment, the whole room was so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard.

After a long time, he had probably had a cup of tea, but he still didn't speak. This time it was not just us, but even the warriors behind him and around him could not sit still. Although these people did not speak, their eyes became obviously confused.

I couldn't help but say tentatively: "General?"

Tu Shuhan looked up and looked at me.

"I don't know the general--"

Before I could finish my words, Tu Shuhan suddenly laughed and raised his wine glass.

"I respect Mr. Liu and have a cup with Miss Yan."

His sudden remarks made us feel a little at a loss, but the master had already spoken, so we could only raise our glasses as if we were kind. Tu Shuhan laughed and drank it all. Liu Qinghan and I had a bad alcohol tolerance, so we could only drink as much as possible.

As soon as I put down the wine glass, I heard Liu Qinghan covering his mouth and coughing silently.

Tu Shuhan waved his hand again, and immediately another servant came in and delivered more sumptuous wine and dishes.

He smiled and said, "Today, I will be with you both without getting drunk!"

I hurriedly said, "General, the matter of sending troops-"

"Hey, today we just need to drink and have fun. Let's talk about the matter of sending troops!"

After saying that, he asked the maid to fill another glass of wine and said to both of us: "Do it!"

It was already said that, and he agreed or not. In just a moment, Liu Qinghan and I looked at each other and knew that today's situation was difficult to go further. We could only grit our teeth and raise our wine glass.

After drinking like this several times in a row, although I didn’t drink until I drank the glass like their men, the ones Tu Shuhan sent were all strong wine, which was enough to make me blush and look dazed.

Just as we blushed and the ears were hot, and Liu Qinghan was also covering his mouth with his handkerchief and coughing lightly, Tu Shuhan suddenly said: "This time, the Dongchaga team gathered an army of 200,000 and came in full force. I wonder who was the one they led?"

I thought about it and said, "I heard it was Humuhan."

"oh?"

"The general knows him too."

"Hmph," Tu Shuhan sneered: "This person is also a good guy."

I tentatively said, "Are the general confident about this person?"

Tu Shuhan looked at me, but did not answer the conversation, but just raised his glass and said, "I'll give you a glass to Miss Yan."

I could only raise my glass and take a sip with him.

Just as he put down his cup, Tu Shuhan wiped his beard and said, "The East Chaga Army has come to an army of 200,000 this time. How many troops are there in Xichuan?"

“…”

His question was a bit tricky, but he stopped me.

We asked him to send troops, and he asked us about our falsehood and reality. This is understandable, but how to answer the question. If you say too much, it will make people feel that the Shu army is incompetent and cannot resist the cavalry of the Eastern Chaga tribe; if you say too little, not only will he not believe it, but he will also reveal his shortcomings.

Moreover, Pei Yuanfeng did not have many soldiers in his hands.

Inviting people to send troops is just like asking God. After the invitation is finished, you have to consider the issue of sending God.

I thought about it and said, "Many, but if I want to win, I still need the best help from the general."

Regarding this ambiguous answer, Tu Shuhan curled his lips and did not break the casserole and asked to the end, but asked again: "Then, how many troops do you need me to help?"

“…”

I looked at Liu Qinghan.

He sat opposite me. When he heard this question, he also looked up and looked at me, but his face was faint.

After contacting my eyes for a moment, he lowered his head and avoided my eyes.

My heart couldn't help but sink.

Along the way, I only remember that he was Liu Qinghan, that he and I had no words before, but almost forgot his identity. But at this moment his indifference made me wake up suddenly.

He and I are from both camps.

To form an alliance with him and work together, it is natural in the deepest part of my consciousness, but for him, he is a tiger and wolf. He must be vigilant and plotting so that he will not be swallowed up.

For a moment, my throat was choked and I couldn't speak. Tu Shuhan said again: "Miss Yan?"

I came to my senses, looked at him, and said quietly: "This time, if the general can send 100,000 troops, he will definitely make unparalleled contributions to the emperor. High officials and generous titles are just around the corner."

"Hundreds of thousands?"

Hearing this number, Tu Shuhan frowned.

Then I calmed down: "This number should not be difficult for the general, right?"

He didn't say anything, but just took another big sip of wine. Looking at his eyebrows locked, I couldn't help feeling a little uneasy. I wanted to say something, but he used other words to change the topic.

After this banquet, I chewed wax.

Tu Shuhan was polite and even enthusiastic to us. He served us with such delicious food and drink, but he never understood whether to send troops. Liu Qinghan and I asked several times, but he was asked around and changed the topic.

Seeing that the moon was rising to the sky, I couldn't help but want to ask again. A soldier suddenly walked in from the side hall, walked to Tu Shuhan's side, and whispered. Tu Shuhan's thick black eyebrows immediately frowned and murmured: "They came too slowly!"

It seems that someone arrived.

Tu Shuhan waved his hand quietly: "Let them go to the meeting hall to wait."

After saying this, Tu Shuhan turned his head to look at us and smiled and said, "Two, I still have some important things to deal with, so I will not be with you tonight."

“…”

Liu Qinghan and I looked at each other and understood that he was going to discuss with others.

Although the conditions and benefits we put forward moved him, sending troops was not a trivial matter after all, and Tu Shuhan still needed to make careful considerations with his military staff.

It seems that this is the key to his decision!

Thinking of this, Liu Qinghan had already stood up and said with a smile: "Since the general has important matters, we won't disturb you."

"I hope that you two have fun tonight."

"It is natural that the general is so enthusiastic about hospitality."

"Hahahaha, OK. I have already prepared a guest room for you two. If it's too late today, you two will--"

"Leave the general's arrangement."

After being polite, I took the team of maids we had come over and took us down. Before leaving the hall, I looked back and Tu Shuhan hurriedly and went to the side hall without looking back.

|

We walked back along the corridor when we came. Since Tu Shuhan even arranged the two of us so close to bathing, I think the guest rooms should be close to each other.

I walked in front of me for a step or two, still recalling every sentence I said at the banquet just now, whether it was possible to convince Tu Shuhan again, or whether he had disclosed any information to us, and just as I was thinking, I heard a strange sound coming from behind me.

When he looked back, Liu Qinghan was frowning. When he saw me looking back at him, he immediately stretched out a hand to cover his neck.

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's okay."

I glanced at him again and said, "Is it a wine rash?"

Seeing that I said this, he stopped hiding it. He put down his hand covering his neck. With the moonlight, I immediately saw a large area of ​​rashes there. Some places were already scratched by him and were almost broken.

I sighed.

I knew in the past that he would have a rash after drinking. In addition, today - he must have caught a cold while bathing, and was poured with wine like Tu Shuhan, so the situation would naturally be worse.

He seemed very uncomfortable, shrank his neck and finally couldn't help but reach out to scratch again. I hurriedly opened his hand and said lightly: "Don't scratch it, it will be even more uncomfortable if it scratches. Let them give you some cooling medicine later."

"No need." He frowned: "It's better to have less than more things."

After saying that, he gently polished his neck with his collar, then looked at the front and said, "Let's go."

I was speechless and could only follow. After a while, I arrived outside the guest room prepared by Tu Shuhan. He entered the door first, nodded and said good night to me, and then closed the door. I watched the lights swaying inside, casting his shadow on the window, as if he was still grinding his neck uncomfortable, and the maid had already walked to the door next to him, pushed it open some, and said respectfully: "Dear guest, please rest."

I walked in, thought about it, and turned back, "Do you have some cool medicine here?"

"Some madam wants to use it?"

"Yeah, send me some."
