Before Ouyang Linlin could put down the poker in her hand, she saw soldiers rushing to come.
She frowned slightly, and a trace of doubt surged in her heart.
The soldier said anxiously: "Several ladies, something happened! There is important news!"
Ouyang Linlin put down her poker and showed a look of surprise on her face.
She widened her eyes and asked anxiously: "What's the matter? Say it!"
The soldier took a deep breath and told the truth about the matter in detail.
Ouyang Linlin and several other ladies listened, and their expressions gradually became shocked, their mouths opened slightly, and their eyes were full of disbelief and surprise.
They looked at each other and could see the astonishment in each other's eyes.
The poker in Ouyang Linlin's hands was scattered all over the table.
She stared at the soldiers in a daze, her face full of panic and worry.
The soldier hurriedly said, "Madam, don't worry, listen to me. Although this happened, everything will be fine when the Prime Minister comes back."
Ouyang Linlin frowned and bit her lips, with deep anxiety in her eyes.
The other wives were filled with shock and fear.
They looked at each other and lost the mood to continue playing poker.
A lady said anxiously: "What should I do?"
She frowned, her eyes full of worry, and her hands were tightly clasped together.
The other lady stood aside with a blank look on her face, muttering to herself: "How could this happen..."
Seeing this, the soldier hurriedly comforted him: "Madam, don't worry too much, I believe the Prime Minister must have a way to solve it."
But the wife's face still had an unconcealable panic.
After the soldiers left, the air seemed to have stalled.
A soldier suddenly said in annoyance: "Oh, did we do something wrong just now? Isn't this causing trouble for the ladies?"
Several women looked at each other and fell into silence.
After a while, one of the wives broke the silence and said, "What should we do? We have to think of a way!"
The other lady also agreed anxiously: "Yes, you can't just wait like this!"
Ouyang Linlin bit her lip and thoughts were everywhere.
She thought to herself: It’s not that something happened to uncle, Xi Yu, there is no need to worry too much.
But isn’t I a little selfish when I think about it this way? After all, my uncle is also a member of the family. She felt a burst of guilt coming to her heart.
Other ladies were still talking.
Ouyang Linlin fell into deep self-blame.
After the soldiers left, the atmosphere became dull.
A soldier stomped his feet in annoyance and said, "Oh, it shouldn't be like this. Isn't this a mess for the wife?"
A few women look at me, and I look at you, but I don’t know what to do.
Sun Shangxiang frowned and said with a serious expression: "It's useless to say anything. I can only wait until Xi Yu comes back."
Ouyang Linlin bit her lip, her face full of worry, but nodded helplessly.
Other wives also expressed their agreement.
Gradually, everyone dispersed like deflated balls.
There was still an uneasy atmosphere in the air, as if you could still see their lost backs when they left.
Ouyang Linlin stood there, fell into deep thought, her eyes a little dull.
Xiaohong walked forward, gently pulled Ouyang Linlin's neck of clothes, and comforted him: "Miss, don't be sad."
Ouyang Linlin slowly raised her head, her eyes full of confusion and pain.
She asked softly, "Xiaohong, am I too selfish?"
Xiaohong frowned slightly, and a look of heartache appeared on her face.
She said seriously: "Miss, this is not selfish. The Prime Minister means a lot to you, and it is normal for you to be particularly sad. Now I heard that something happened to Mr. Xi Zhicai, and you are not very sad. This is normal."
After hearing Xiaohong's words, Ouyang Linlin sighed softly, but the sorrow on her face still did not dissipate.
The third brother hurried home, and the second brother immediately met him and asked anxiously: "What's going on? What's going on?"
The third brother gasped and told the story all the time.
Xi Zhicai shouted from the side: "It's better to let me go. I can go and plead with Xi Yu and spare you three!"
When the boss heard this, he opened his eyes wide open, raised his hand suddenly, and slapped Xi Zhicai hard. His face turned red in an instant, and he gritted his teeth and said viciously: "If you say this again, you will kill you!"
Xi Zhicai was beaten to the point of bleeding from the corner of his mouth, but he still stared at the boss unwillingly, his eyes full of resentment.
There was a tense atmosphere in the room. The second child frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Xi Yu hasn't come back for several days. Could it be that we still have to care about Xi Zhicai? It's so outrageous!"
The boss took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He looked at Xi Zhicai and said helplessly: "Anyway, Xi Yu won't ignore his brother, so just wait a few days."
The third brother looked at the second brother, then looked at Xi Zhicai, and then said to the eldest brother: "Second brother, look at Xi Zhicai, brother, please go outside with me."
The eldest and the third brother walked slowly outside.
The third brother frowned and said worriedly: "Brother, do you think Xi Yu will take action against us regardless of his elder brother's life and death?"
The boss gritted his teeth and said firmly: "Impossible! Xi Yu is not that kind of person!"
The third brother shook his head, his face full of doubts, and said, "Xi Yu is the prime minister. Since ancient times, people who do big things have been cruel."
After hearing the third one's words, the boss showed a hint of hesitation on his face. His eyes began to wander, as if he was thinking about something.
The third brother approached the boss and lowered his voice and said, "Brother, we must prepare!"
The boss frowned and said with a serious look on his face: "It's better to act according to the opportunity."
His eyes were a little free, as if he was still weighing something.
The third brother said anxiously: "Now you must prepare! You can't wait any longer!"
The boss raised his head and looked at the third brother. A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes and murmured: "How to prepare? What can we do?"
The third brother approached the boss, lowered his voice, and said nervously: "Brother, why not just leave us here. Let the second brother leave. Once Xi Yu really takes action, he can save his bloodline."
He frowned, his eyes full of worry and determination.
The boss nodded slightly, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
After a moment, he slowly said, "Okay, just do that." A trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
The third brother turned his head and looked into the room, shouting to the second brother, "Second brother, come out!"
The second child walked out of the house, looked at the third child and the eldest child with confusion, and asked, "What's wrong?"
His brows frowned, his eyes full of confusion.
The second brother came outside with a puzzled look on his face and looked at the eldest brother and the third brother.
The boss took a deep breath and slowly expressed the third brother's worries and plans with a serious expression.
After hearing this, the second brother frowned and a trace of determination flashed across his face.
He said excitedly: "What the third brother said makes sense, but if you want to stay, I will stay. How can I be a person who is greedy for life and fear of death?"
His eyes were firm and persistent, staring at the boss tightly, and his chest was fluctuating violently, as if expressing his determination.
The boss looked at the dick, and a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes. He opened his mouth, trying to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.
At this time, the third brother hurried out of the house and said, "Anyway, Xi Zhicai can't run out, so why don't I come out too."
The second brother widened his eyes and said, "Third brother, you'll leave."
The third brother was not willing to be outdone and raised his voice and said, "Why do I leave? If you want to leave, you will leave!"
The two of them argued one by one, the second brother's face was full of stubbornness, and the third brother seemed a little excited.
At this time, the boss raised his hand to stop their quarrel.
"Okay, don't argue anymore! No matter what the result is, the three of us brothers will live and die together!"
The second and third brother gradually calmed down after hearing the eldest brother's words.
Xi Yu rode his horse in front of the team and turned to Tuoba Yu and said, "Tuoba Yu, you can reach Youzhou in one day."
Tuoba Yu rode on the horse, looked into the distance, and said with emotion: "The Central Plains is so good, much better than the place in Xianbei."
Her eyes showed her yearning and love for the Central Plains, and a bright smile was overflowing on her face.
That night, Xi Yu and his group lived in an inn. The moonlight shone in the inn courtyard, covering everything with a layer of silver gauze.
What's particularly coincidental is that this store was actually opened by Xianbei people.
The boss Han Dacheng was busy. When he saw Tuoba Yu, a surprise suddenly burst out in his eyes.
Han Dacheng walked quickly to Tuoba Yu, his voice trembling with excitement. He asked, "You... are you a Xianbei?"
Tuoba Yu nodded slightly, looked at Han Dacheng in confusion, and asked, "I am, are you doing something?"
Han Dacheng was so excited that his hands were trembling. He said, "I feel very excited when I see the Xianbei people! My father came to the Central Plains to do business when he was a child, and later settled here. I have lived in the Central Plains since I was a child."
His face was full of emotion, and his eyes showed his deep attachment to his hometown.
Tuoba Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's your name?"
Han Dacheng bowed slightly and replied, "The little one is called Han Dacheng."
He had a sincere smile on his face and looked at Tuoba Yu with a sincere look.
Tuoba Yu asked again: "Since you have lived here since you were a child, do you have special feelings for the Xianbei?"
Han Dacheng's eyes became a little distant, and he sighed: "That's true. Although I grew up here, I still couldn't give up the feelings for the Xianbei in my bones."
His face showed deep longing and melancholy, as if he was recalling his distant hometown.
Han Dacheng turned his head and looked at Xi Yu and the other three, with a smile on his face and said generously: "Since you are friends of Xianbei, I will give you the money for today!"
Xi Yu waved his hand quickly and said, "How can this work? There is no need to avoid it."
Han Dacheng thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, then it's cheaper."
Xi Yu wanted to refuse, but Han Dacheng insisted: "Don't refuse, it's decided!"
After dinner, Han Dacheng walked to Tuoba Yu and said softly: "Girl, can you follow me to the yard and say a few words?"
Tuoba Yu followed Han Dacheng to the yard. The bright moonlight shone on the ground, covering the yard with a layer of silver gauze.
Tuoba Yu asked curiously: "What's the matter with me?"
Han Dacheng lowered his voice and said, "A few days ago, a few Xianbei people came to my store, and the leader was Tuoba Lu."
After hearing this, Tuoba Yu was shocked and showed an incredible expression on his face.
She thought, did your brother come to Zhongyuan to find me?
She immediately showed no idea of ​​knowing nothing, and then asked, "What's next?"
Han Dacheng said with a serious expression: "Girl, those people know that I am a Xianbei, so they tell me the truth. They said they wanted to let more Xianbei people enter the Central Plains. This time they came to talk to Xi Yu."
When Tuoba Yu heard this, his face was full of shock.
She asked in surprise: "What? Talking to Xi Yu?"
Han Dacheng looked at Tuoba Yu and continued, "I tell you this girl because you are also a Xianbei person."
Tuoba Yu frowned and fell into deep thought.
She remembered that her brother really wanted to let everyone enter the Central Plains, but no one would have thought that the person who was with her would be Xi Yu.
She looked at Han Dacheng with intriguing eyes.
"Girl, why are you looking at me with this kind of gaze?"
"Why did you tell me this? Is it just because I am a Xianbei?"
"Of course this is the reason."
But Tuoba Yu could not believe his words at all.
"I hope you can tell me the truth."
There was nothing we could do, Han Dacheng told the truth.
That day, Tuoba Lu also said that his sister was lost and now he didn't know where he was. He also asked if he had seen her.
Today, when he saw Tuoba Yu's appearance, he felt that the other party looked very similar to Tuoba Lu.
"So, I dare ask the girl, are you the leader's sister?"
"How could I be his sister? I'm just an ordinary person. If nothing happens, I'll leave first."
Tuoba Yu hurried back to Xi Yu.
Seeing her face look ugly, Xi Yu asked with concern: "Tuoba Yu, what's wrong with you? What's going on?"
Tuoba Yu pursed her lips, her eyes dodged, and said, "No... nothing is wrong."
A hint of panic flashed across her face.
Xi Yu stared at her for a while, and naturally understood in his heart that it must have something to do with Han Dacheng's words.
But seeing that she didn't want to say it, she couldn't ask.
Xi Yu and others were about to find Han Dacheng to open a few rooms when they saw Han Dacheng coming over with a steaming soup.
Han Dacheng smiled and said enthusiastically: "Dear guests, since I came here today, I will give you a dish."
Xi Yu waved his hand quickly and said: You are so polite, why are you so embarrassed?"
Han Dacheng laughed heartily and said, "What's the shame of this? This is what you should do."
Xi Yu looked at Han Dacheng and said with a smile: "Then please arrange a few rooms for us."
Han Dacheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will make arrangements."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Xi Yu looked at Han Dacheng's departure back, frowned slightly, and thought to himself: "I always feel that Han Dacheng's expression is a bit strange, as if there is something hidden from us."
A look of confusion appeared on his face.
Tuoba Yu kept lowering her head, looking a little lonely.
She thought about her brother's affairs in secret, and her thoughts were full of thoughts. Suddenly, she realized that she couldn't hate her brother again, but she still wanted to avenge Hailan.
Thinking of this, her eyes became a little confused and she seemed a little dazed.
Xi Yu noticed Tuoba Yu's strangeness and said gently: "Tuoba Yu, don't think so much, just eat first."
At this moment, Song Shuwen whispered: "No one should touch this soup."
His voice was very low, with a hint of alertness.
After saying that, he looked carefully at the bowl of soup, with a look of surprise on his face.
Immediately afterwards, he quickly took out the silver needle and tried the soup, but he saw that the silver needle quickly turned black.
Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu were both shocked when they saw this scene.
Xi Yu widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief, and said, "This...what is going on?"
Tuoba Yu also raised his head, his eyes full of fear, and he opened his mouth and couldn't speak for a long time.
Xi Yu frowned and said, "No wonder he saw Han Dacheng a little strange just now. This soup is actually poisonous!"
At this moment, Tuoba Yu suddenly slapped the table, widened his eyes, and shouted with anger: "Come here!"
The sound exploded in the room like thunder.
Soon, a waiter hurriedly walked in from outside and asked with a puzzled look: "Several guests, what are you doing?"
Tuoba Yu glared and gritted his teeth and said, "We want to see Han Dacheng! Immediately!"
Her eyes seemed to be about to spit out fire, full of anger and anxiety.
Seeing this, the waiter did not dare to neglect it, so he quickly jogged all the way to call Han Dacheng.
After a while, Han Dacheng walked in.
When he saw Tuoba Yu's angry look, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat and secretly screamed.
But he still tried to calm down and deliberately said in a daze: "Several guest officials, what's wrong? Why are you so angry?"
His eyes flashed a little, and he didn't dare to look directly at Tuoba Yu's gaze.
Tuoba Yu opened his eyes wide open and stared at Han Dacheng. Her face turned red and her chest was flushing violently. She said angrily: "Han Dacheng, don't pretend to be confused with me here! This soup is poisonous, what do you want to do?"
Han Dacheng lowered his head guiltily, avoiding Tuoba Yu's gaze, and his mouth twitched slightly, and he stammered: "This... how is this possible? I...I don't know what's going on."
Han Dacheng stood there, full of wonder, and thought to himself: How could they know that this soup is poisonous? It's really strange.
Xi Yu smiled coldly, then pointed at Song Shuwen and said, "Don't bother. Do you think we don't know your tricks? There are miracle doctors here. It is impossible to use such despicable means to deal with us!"
Song Shuwen stood aside, looking at Han Dacheng expressionlessly, holding the black silver needle in his hand.
Han Dacheng finally understood what was going on, but he still had to pretend to be confused.
