At night, Qingyu City was brightly lit and a sumptuous military dinner was being held. There were noisy crowds everywhere. After so much hardship, it was finally wiped out all the Hu army south of Lanjiang. It was a celebration. The soldiers drank happily and were drunk tonight.

Qian Xiaoxing was surrounded by all the soldiers and toasted him. He couldn't help but drink a lot. After drinking, he had to hide. The alcohol in his stomach rushed and he staggered to the distance and vomited.

Vomiting was painful. Qian Xiaoxing cleared the things in his stomach, held his hands against the wall and gasped. He handed a handkerchief on one hand. Qian Xiaoxing took it and wiped his mouth dry. After feeling a little more comfortable, he felt a fragrance in his handkerchief. When he turned around, he immediately said in surprise: "Why are you?"

The person in front of her was Sima Chuchu. Seeing her smile, she said, "Don't drink too much wine, hurt your body, go there and rest."

After saying that, Sima Chuchu helped Qian Xiaoxing to sit down on the stairs beside the city wall, turned around and left. Qian Xiaoxing was wondering, but after a while Sima Chuchu came back, took a big bowl in his hand, handed it to Qian Xiaoxing and said, "This is sober tea, my secret recipe, it won't be uncomfortable after drinking it."

Qian Xiaoxing looked at Sima Chuchu, and saw that he looked expectant and thought to himself if she would do anything, so he hesitated and didn't take it. Sima Chuchu picked up the bowl and took a big sip, and said, "Now you can drink it with confidence."

Qian Xiaoxing then took the big bowl and took a sip. He felt a little sour and refreshing. It was really comfortable to drink it at this time. He couldn't help but drink it all, wiped his mouth and said, "It's delicious, it's not boiled in water?"

"It was boiled with medicinal materials and water." Sima Chuchu replied in confusion.

Qian Xiaoxing asked even more puzzledly: "Can it be so cold when boiled in water?"

Sima Chuchu smiled and replied, "I have cooked it long ago, and then soaked it in the well water to make it so cool."

"You knew I would get drunk for a long time," Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but shake his head. The woman was so smart and had a very delicate heart. After drinking sobering tea, she was indeed not dizzy and felt much more comfortable. She said to Sima Chuchu: "You sit down too."

Sima Chuchu hesitated for a moment and sat next to Qian Xiaoxing. Qian Xiaoxing asked, "Do you still blame me for what happened that night?"

"That night? What's going on?" Sima Chuchu pretended not to know.

Qian Xiaoxing smiled and said, "It's good that you forgot. You sent me sober tea for no reason. There must be something wrong. Tell me, what are you asking for?"

"I will never forget the incident that night for the rest of my life, I just don't want to say it again," Sima Chuchu pouted and said, "Do I have to ask for something if I give you sober tea?"

Qian Xiaoxing looked at Sima Chuchu seriously and said, "No, didn't you all fight me before? Now you are all attentive?"

"Okay, you must think this way, I can't do anything about it. Then let me tell you, if the Si army attacked Hu Guoshandu, would you go to save my father?" Sima Chuchu asked.

"Sima Yiqing, this damn old man..." Qian Xiaoxing remembered that he was Sima Chuchu's relative, and changed his words and said, "Oh, he wanted to kill me again and again, and killed Yingying's father. Do you think I will go and save me?"

Sima Chuchu suddenly fell down and said, "My father devoted his wholehearted efforts to Hu State. He has been a hero for generations. Who could have expected such an end? Therefore, many things are not what you see on the surface. You may have saved my father and will not be as bad as you think."

Qian Xiaoxing became curious and asked, "Then tell me, what's the benefit of saving your father?"

"I don't know this now, but I can tell you a story, maybe you can understand it." Sima Chuchu replied.

The night wind blew, bringing the noisy voices in the distance. Qian Xiaoxing looked at the starlight in the sky, and was idle anyway, and said, "Okay, then I'll listen to your story."

Sima Chuchu turned sideways and said to Qian Xiaoxing: "Once upon a time, two gods, one old and one young, came to the earth to play. One day, they stayed at a rich man's house. The family was not friendly to them and refused to let them spend the night in the comfortable guest bedroom. They just found a corner for them in the cold basement. When they made the bed, the older gods found a hole in the wall and repaired it. The young angel asked why, and the old angel replied: 'Some things are not as they look.'"

Qian Xiaoxing listened carefully, knowing that he had not finished talking here, and asked, "What's next?"

Sima Chuchu continued: "The next night, the two went to a very poor farmhouse to stay. The owner and his wife were very enthusiastic about them, and took out the little food to entertain the guests, and then gave up their beds to the two gods. The next morning, the two gods found the farmer and his wife crying, and their only source of life - a cow died. The young god was very angry. He asked the old god why this happened: the first family had everything, the old god also helped them repair the wall holes, and the second god was still enthusiastic about the guests despite being so poor, but the old god did not stop the death of the cow."

"Yes, why?" Qian Xiaoxing asked in confusion.

"Some things are not like it looks," Sima Chuchu said, standing up and said, "The old god explained to the little god, 'When we spent the night in the basement, I saw the wall full of gold nuggets. Because the master was confused by greed and was unwilling to share his wealth, I filled the wall hole. Last night, the God of Death came to summon the farmer's wife, and I let the cow replace her. So some things are not like it looks.'"

"So that's how it is..." Qian Xiaoxing also thought deeply after hearing this. This story was a bit savory.

Sima Chuchu took the opportunity and said, "I just want to say, maybe my father is the old god. What he did to you, Si State should not be as simple as it seems. For example, if my father did not send someone to assassinate you, then King Si would not die. Then have you seized the seven cities north of Lanjiang now?"

"This seems to make some sense." Qian Xiaoxing also calculated that perhaps King Si is not dead, but he is still just guarding the Cangkong Pass. At least what Sima Yiqing did here has a promoting effect.

Sima Chuchu's eyes shining under the starlight, she looked at Qian Xiaoxing and said, "Then do you think you can save it?"

"I haven't attacked Hu Guoshandu yet, and I haven't even had a single word of the horoscope. Let's talk about it, let's talk about it." Qian Xiaoxing said with a haha.

Seeing that Sima Chuchu had been talking for a long time, Qian Xiaoxing refused to agree and continued to persuade: "The Zheng brothers are my father's former subordinates. They rebelled against Hu in order to save my father. If you don't go to save them, they will have no motivation to fight."

"It's too early to talk now. Even if I say to save me, who knows whether your father is still alive when Si Jun arrives in Shandu? Some things are not as simple as you think." Qian Xiaoxing replied.

Sima Chuchu pouted and said, "I don't care, you have to agree to me first!"

"You just want to buy me with a bowl of sobering tea. Isn't it too simple? Whether you can save your father depends on your future performance. If you can make military achievements, I can consider it." Qian Xiaoxing said in a difficult situation.

Sima Chuchu thought about it and said seriously: "Okay, that's a matter of determination, I will definitely make military achievements for you!"

A gust of wind blew, Qian Xiaoxing hugged his body and said, "Oh, why did I suddenly feel so cold? Chuchu, please hug me."

Sima Chuchu felt that the weather would not be very cold. Seeing Qian Xiaoxing's bad eyes, she understood and cursed: "You are a big hooligan. Ignore you, I'll leave!"
