Xi Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
They are the most important people in his life and he is willing to give everything for them.
I can't hesitate anymore, I have to make a decision. Xi Yu said in his heart.
In the end, I decided to go to Kushan with them.
In the evening, Xi Yu walked out of the room and came to Ouyang Linlin's room.
It just so happened that Ouyang Linlin was there too.
When they saw Xi Yu's expression, they understood his decision in their hearts.
"I'm willing to go to Kushan with you." Xi Yu asked.
The two women looked at each other and nodded.
The two women were very happy and clapped their hands quickly.
Xi Yu decided to explain this to them and then follow them.
He sent someone to call Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang and others.
In a room, Xi Yu sat in the first place, with Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun sitting on both sides of him respectively.
Xi Yu had a serious expression and looked at them with a firm look.
Xi Yu cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, I have an important thing to announce today. I decided to go to Kushan with Ouyang Linlin and may be away for a while."
Zhou Yu frowned slightly and asked, "Prime Minister, are you going to Kushan? Why are you going there?"
Xi Yu smiled slightly and replied: "I have some important things to deal with when I go there this time. As for the specific reason, it is not convenient to disclose it now."
A trace of doubt flashed in Zhuge Liang's eyes, but he did not continue to ask, but said, "Prime Minister, how should the affairs here be handled after you leave?"
Xi Yu nodded and said, "I have considered it, and everything here will be left to you. Zhou Yu, you are responsible for military affairs; Zhuge Liang, you are responsible for internal affairs and diplomacy; Zhao Yun, you are responsible for protecting everyone's safety. I believe you will be competent for your respective jobs."
Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun looked at each other, and then said in unison: "Don't worry, Prime Minister, we will definitely not let your expectations down."
Xi Yu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, I'll be relieved if you are here. I will handle the Kushan affairs as soon as possible and then come back to reunite with you."
After the meeting, Xi Yu stood up and prepared to leave the conference room.
"Teacher, take care of yourself."
After saying that, Xi Yu left without looking back.
The next morning, the sun shone through the window on Xi Yu's face. He slowly opened his eyes and sat up.
He was named Tuoba Yu, Ouyang Linlin and Xiaohong.
He got up gently, put on his clothes, and walked out of the room.
After a while, Tuoba Yu, Ouyang Linlin and Xiaohong also came over.
Xi Yu looked at them and said with a smile: "Are you ready? We are going to set off."
Tuoba Yu, Ouyang Linlin and Xiaohong nodded, their faces were full of expectations.
Xi Yu took them to the stable and took out a few horses.
Xi Yu turned over the horse, then stretched out his hand, and pulled Tuoba Yu, Ouyang Linlin and Xiaohong onto the horse.
"Set out!" With Xi Yu's order, several horses galloped and galloped towards the Kushan Kingdom.
While riding a horse, Xi Yu said to Tuoba Yu, Ouyang Linlin and Xiaohong: "We will live a hard life next, and I hope you must be prepared."
Tuoba Yu, Ouyang Linlin and Xiaohong nodded, and there was no fear on their faces.
Xi Yu looked at them and felt moved.
That night, Xi Yu stepped into the inn gate.
He found that the inn shopkeeper was looking at the newspaper in his hand attentively, with a satisfied smile on his face.
Xi Yu stood quietly aside and quietly observed the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper sometimes smiled knowingly and nodded frequently, obviously appreciating the content in the newspaper.
Xi Yu was secretly happy in his heart. He knew very well that this newspaper was founded by Su Yu, and it was now the second issue, and it was really exciting.
However, he decided to hide his identity.
After a while, the shopkeeper put down the newspaper, stretched his body, and then looked up at Xi Yu.
He asked with curiosity in his eyes, "This guest official, are you here to stay in the hotel?"
Xi Yu smiled slightly and replied, "Yes, I passed by here and wanted to rest for one night in your store."
The shopkeeper said enthusiastically: "Okay, OK, please come in. Our room here is clean and tidy, and the price is fair."
Xi Yu nodded and followed the shopkeeper into the store.
During the conversation, Xi Yu always maintained politeness and modesty.
He thought to himself: "Su Yu is so talented when this second issue of newspaper can be so popular."
The inn shopkeeper smiled and asked Xi Yu and his group: "Several guests, do you want to eat something?"
Xi Yu nodded and responded: "Well, please help me feed the horse," his tone was calm and natural.
The shopkeeper quickly agreed: "Okay, no problem! Don't worry, please be careful, you must take good care of the horse."
Then, the shopkeeper enthusiastically introduced several signature dishes.
Xi Yu turned his head and looked at the three women beside him, and said with a smile: "You guys order."
Tuoba Yu smiled and said, "Then let's have braised pork ribs, I love this one the most."
Ouyang Linlin said, "I want to eat steamed fish."
Xiaohong said timidly: "I want to eat sweet and sour tenderloin...is it OK?"
Xi Yu looked at them gently, nodded and said, "Of course, you can, just like it."
The shopkeeper wrote down the dishes and said with a smile: "Customer wait a moment, and I will serve you later."
After a while, the dishes were served one after another.
Xi Yu picked up a piece of rib and put it in his mouth. After chewing it for a few times, he suddenly frowned and looked a little strange.
However, the three women ate with relish and kept praising the deliciousness of the dishes.
Xi Yu put down his chopsticks and quickly said to them: "Don't eat it first."
The three women looked at Xi Yu with confusion.
Tuoba Yu asked in confusion: "Why? This dish is quite delicious."
Ouyang Linlin also echoed: "Yes, husband, what's wrong?"
Xiaohong looked at Xi Yu with some nervousness. She noticed that Xi Yu looked ugly and asked softly: "Prime Minister, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Xi Yu shook his head and said in a deep voice: "The taste of this dish is a little wrong, I'm worried that the ingredients are not fresh."
A look of worry appeared on his face.
After hearing this, Tuoba Yu and Ouyang Linlin stopped chopsticks and their faces became a little solemn.
When Tuoba Yu heard Xi Yu's words, he blinked, smiled confidently, and said, "I think this dish is quite fresh, there is no problem."
Xi Yu glared at her suddenly, with a hint of majesty in his eyes.
Tuoba Yu's face turned pale immediately, and he quickly lowered his head and did not dare to speak again.
Xi Yu looked around and found that the shopkeeper and the waiter were not there, so he whispered to Xiaohong: "Xiaohong, take some money to buy something, remember not to let others see it."
Xiaohong nodded, a trace of firmness flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "Okay, Prime Minister, I understand."
She took the currency and hurried towards the door, her pace seemed a little hurried.
After Xiaohong left, Ouyang Linlin came to Xi Yu and asked in a low voice: "Husband, what's going on? This food looks so good."
Xi Yu frowned and said with a serious expression: "Although this meal tastes good, I have something else mixed in it."
After hearing this, Ouyang Linlin's face turned pale instantly, her eyes were full of shock. She cried out in disbelief: "What? Is it mixed with something? What should I do if I do this?"
Xi Yu quickly reached out to signal her to whisper, comforting her, "Don't panic, wait until Xiaohong comes back."
After a while, Xiaohong came back in a hurry.
Xi Yu whispered: "Dispose what we ordered. After a while, the shopkeeper will know that we have eaten. Then he will take the things he bought into the room and we will eat them ourselves."
After hearing this, the three women quickly took action and treated the food on the table with a slightly panic look.
Just as they finished processing, the shopkeeper happened to come in.
The shopkeeper's face was filled with a smile and asked, "Several guests, is this food particularly delicious?"
Xi Yu immediately responded: "Yes, it's so delicious! We've never had such a delicious meal." A satisfied expression appeared on his face.
After hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled proudly and said, "That's good, don't worry, guests, no matter how much food you have in a hundred miles, no one's house will be better than mine."
The dry food Xiaohong bought was easy to carry, and they had all been quietly placed in their cuffs.
The shopkeeper said to them with a smile: "Customers, I'll open a room for you."
Xi Yu nodded, then turned to the three women and said, "Tonight I will be in the same room as Tuoba Yu. By tomorrow, let Ouyang Linlin and me live. Tuoba Yu, you and Xiaohong live together."
The shopkeeper also returned to the room and sat on the chair.
His woman came up and asked curiously: "I heard of how many foreign guests came today?"
The shopkeeper nodded and replied, "Yes. The few dishes they ordered were basically eaten up."
A smug smile immediately appeared on the woman's face, and an excitement flashed in her eyes. She said softly: "If I hadn't come up with this method, how could our business here be so good?"
The shopkeeper looked at the woman and laughed. His face was full of gratitude and said softly: "Madam, thank you so much."
The woman said coquettishly: "Since that's the case, the shopkeeper, you should thank me very well."
The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and her face was filled with a smug look.
After hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled, hugged her tightly, and said softly: "I will serve my wife well tonight." There was a hint of ambiguity in his eyes.
The woman said "hate" and pretended to be struggling on the surface, but a blush appeared on her face, but she was actually very happy inside.
After entering the room, Tuoba Yu approached Xi Yu with an eager look on his face, frowned slightly, and asked carefully: "Can you tell me what happened?"
"Finish the meal first, and then talk."
And in Ouyang Linlin's room, Xiaohong muttered in confusion: "The food tonight is so delicious, the Prime Minister insists on dealing with it."
Ouyang Linlin frowned slightly and said softly: "The Prime Minister has said that something has been put in it. He must have his own reason for doing this. Don't complain anymore." Her tone was firm, and a trace of reason was revealed in her eyes.
Xi Yu finally put down the dishes and touched his stomach with satisfaction.
Tuoba Yu frowned and muttered: "I don't like it very much when I eat it. I always feel that the food tonight is delicious, but I don't buy it."
Seeing this, Xi Yu smiled and comforted, "Don't be picky, these foods are actually similar. Just fill your stomach outside, don't ask too much."
Tuoba Yu was still not willing to accept it and pouted, saying, "But I just think the food tonight is more delicious."
"Okay, don't worry about this, maybe we'll have something more delicious tomorrow."
Finally finished the meal, Xi Yu's face became serious. He lowered his voice and said to Tuoba Yu: "Although the food here smells delicious, it has a big problem. If I guess correctly, there are already poppy inside."
When Tuoba Yu heard this, her face showed a look of shock. She opened her eyes wide and asked curiously: "Poppy? What is that?"
Xi Yu's brows frowned slightly, and a trace of recollection flashed in his eyes. He remembered the opium from his previous life.
That thing is very confusing and easy to be addictive.
Tuoba Yu looked at Xi Yu intently, his face full of curiosity and concern, and asked softly: "What exactly is poppy like?"
Xi Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm his tone.
"This flower looks beautiful, but full of temptation. Its appearance is extremely deceptive and makes people fall into it without realizing it."
Xi Yu said angrily: "This is a bad-hearted store. In order to make his business popular, he actually put this kind of thing on to attract customers. Over time, it will definitely be bad for customers' health!"
When Tuoba Yu heard this, his face showed a look of surprise and anger, and he became angry.
"It's so hateful! How can you treat customers like this!"
Xi Yu raised his hand and gently knocked on Ouyang Linlin's door.
After Xiaohong opened the door, Xi Yu leaned his head into it and asked softly: "Have you two finished eating?"
Ouyang Linlin and Xiaohong nodded in response.
Xi Yu frowned and told them again in a serious tone.
After hearing Xi Yu's words, Ouyang Linlin frowned and looked angry. She widened her eyes and said angrily: "This is too much! How can you do such a thing!"
Xiaohong was also filled with righteous indignation. She frowned and echoed: "That's right, the store is so hateful!"
Ouyang Linlin looked at Xi Yu with a serious face and asked, "Husband, are you planning to stay and solve this problem clearly before leaving?"
Xi Yu nodded, frowned slightly and said, "That's true, but this may delay our trip."
There was a hint of worry in his tone.
Ouyang Linlin smiled slightly and said lightly: "It doesn't matter. This matter should be solved and more people cannot endure hardships. When we come to seek Buddha, shouldn't we maintain a kind heart?"
After hearing this, Xi Yu showed an admiring smile on his face.
"Ouyang Linlin, you are so understanding."
His eyes were full of admiration.
Ouyang Linlin tilted her head and asked Xi Yu with confusion: "Husband, how did you find out?"
Xi Yu scratched his head and said with a look of dismay: "I haven't figured it out yet."
Ouyang Linlin's eyes suddenly lit up and she said excitedly: "We should write a letter to let Song Shuwen be with us! What if we feel a little uncomfortable along the way, we can still be treated by Song Shuwen."
Xi Yu suddenly realized, slapped his head suddenly, and said loudly, "Oh, your idea is really good. I didn't even expect it to be so thoughtful."
Afterwards, Xi Yu returned to the room.
Xi Yu's eyes became a little hot. He looked at Tuoba Yu, his lips raised slightly, and said with a smirk: "Tonight... can we do something passionate?"
As he said that, an ambiguous look appeared on his face, and his eyes were full of expectations.
Tuoba Yu's face turned red suddenly. She lowered her head shyly and said softly: "You, you just know what you think about..."
But there was also a trace of undetectable feelings flashing in her eyes.
Xi Yu smiled.
The next morning, Xi Yu got up early and wrote a letter to Song Shuwen, asking the secret guard to find someone else to send it.
Xi Yu approached Xiaohong.
"Xiaohong, you'd better go out to buy those things quietly. Don't let the shopkeeper and the waiter discover it."
Xiaohong blinked and nodded solemnly.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, I understand, I will be careful."
After saying that, he walked out the door carefully.
Xi Yu stood there, staring at Xiaohong's departure back with a complex expression of worry and expectation on his face.
Ouyang Linlin frowned, looked at Xi Yu with an anxious face, and asked anxiously, "Husband, how do you want to investigate?"
Xi Yu also looked worried, scratched his head constantly, and said distressedly: "Oh, I still have no clue."
Ouyang Linlin bit her lip, suddenly her eyes lit up, and she suggested: "If it really doesn't work, why don't you tell me your identity."
When Xi Yu heard this, he waved his hand quickly and responded with a serious expression: "This is not a good idea. What we need most now is evidence, not by relying on our identity to suppress others."
Firmness and thought were revealed in his eyes.
Tuoba Yu frowned and said impatiently: "Oh, why bother with this! Anyway, I know martial arts, so I go directly to question the shopkeeper. If I don't work, I will torture him. Let's see if he says he will not say anything!" As she said that, she waved her fist, her face full of indifferent expressions.
Xi Yu shook his head quickly, with a serious expression and said seriously: "No, this is not the best strategy. We can't act so recklessly, so we should collect some evidence first."
Tuoba Yu looked angry, frowned tightly, and gritted her teeth and said, "I'm so annoying, I feel so frustrated!"
Ouyang Linlin hurriedly walked forward, patted Tuoba Yu on the shoulder, and said gently, "Don't do this, my husband is right." Her eyes were comforted, "Let's better wait."
