Jiang Lu's cronies only felt a great sense of oppression. Although Chen Jinjun in front of him had a beautiful face, it was like a bottomless abyss that he did not dare to look into.
He had only seen this feeling in a few marshals and generals of the Republic of China.
Huo Tingyu looked at Chen Jinjun's back and felt that her aura was stronger than ever he had seen before.
It turns out that she actually hid it so deeply?
But for some reason, Huo Tingyu felt that Chen Jinjun's methods were much more than that.
After all, when she was a teenager, she was able to face local snakes in various places and do business on her own.
Huo Tingyu was the first to not believe that Chen Jinjun was just a noble daughter as she appeared on the surface.
Huo Tingyu looked out at the blue sky through the open door.
She clearly looks like an eagle.
Chen Jinjun turned his back to Huo Tingyu, so naturally he didn't know that Huo Tingyu missed her so much.
Now the only thing in her mind is to get rid of the crony of Jiang Lu from Chaiyang in front of her.
The three names on that note were enough for Chen Jinjun to start taking this matter seriously.
She already had a complete guess in her mind, but she didn't dare to confirm it.
However, Jiang Lu's cronies didn't think that Chen Jinjun's marriage proposal had anything to do with him, and Chen Jinjun's aura was so terrifying that he didn't dare to look directly at her.
He could only look past Chen Jinjun and look at Huo Tingyu who was sitting in a high position: "Shuai Huo thinks this matter..."
"No." Huo Tingyu interrupted him without waiting for him to finish his words.
The messenger from Chaiyang, who was also a close confidant of Jiang Lu, choked at Huo Tingyu's words and was speechless for a long time.
Chen Jinjun raised his eyebrows, looking as if he was expecting Huo Tingyu's reaction.
His own financial resources and Huo Tingyu's military strength are enough to make Yongzhou king in the northwest, and the grand theater has not yet been built, not to mention... he is happy with himself.
But the visitor only talked about it and didn't really verify the fact that Huo Tingyu was interested in Chen Jinjun, so he didn't know what to say for a while.
Chen Jinjun raised his chin: "You still want to come back?"
Of course he refused. Although his commander-in-chief had regrets, the young commander-in-chief Jiang Yue repeatedly told him that he must try his best to let Chen Jinjun remarry.
At first he didn't understand why, but when he saw Chen Jinjun's face, he understood that this face could indeed make people fall in love with him.
Seeing him looking at Chen Jinjun, Huo Tingyu's face darkened.
shallow.
He snorted in his heart, these people always judge people by their appearance, but Chen Jinjun is far more attractive than her face, otherwise how could he possibly recognize her?
Chen Jinjun has met all kinds of people over the years, so he naturally knows the thoughts of Jiang Lu's cronies.
It's just a pity that this man is a messenger, so he can't go too far, so he can only have others invite him out.
But he still remembered Marshal Jiang Yue's instructions and hurriedly tried to make amends for himself: "It doesn't matter. It's normal for the matchmaking to fail once. There will be another time."
After saying that, he left in a hurry without waiting for his servants to take him out.
Chen Jinjun looked at his back as he walked out and frowned.
From this point of view... Jiang Lu and Jiang Yue from Chaiyang would definitely not let him go easily, but it was not clear what kind of deal Zhou Zhaoyuan made with them, and he actually used such a damaging method.
Huo Tingyu looked at Chen Jinjun's back: "Why are you willing to come back?"
Chen Jinjun heard the strangeness in his words, and did not look back. He stood straight on the spot: "The enemies have already come to the door. If I just sit back and ignore it, I will be the only one who dies."
Huo Tingyu couldn't understand who the enemy she was talking about, so he frowned and asked her, "Who is the enemy of the Dong family? I haven't heard that Jiang Lu of Chaiyang City had any enmity with the Dong family in the past?"
"It's not Jiang Lu," Chen Jinjun finally looked back at Huo Tingyu, "it's the enemies from the capital who are chasing him."
Huo Tingyu saw in her eyes a murderous intention that was so strong that it could not be dispelled.
He had also heard about this matter, and immediately asked: "Zhou family?"
Chen Jinjun was a little surprised that Huo Tingyu knew about the Zhou family, but thinking about it carefully, it was impossible that Huo Tingyu had not investigated him, and it seemed reasonable to know some people who had connections with the Chen family.
She nodded: "Yes, it's the Zhou family. If nothing else happens, the Zhou family should have arrived in the northwest by now. The specific location is Chaiyang City."
"Jiang Lu has been at odds with me over the years. Every time something happens in the northwest, it always involves Yongzhou."
To be honest, Huo Tingyu has been suppressing the idea of starting a war with Chaiyang all these years, just because although his Yongzhou army is strong, the logistics of food and grass is a major shortcoming.
Chen Jinjun saw Huo Tingyu's hesitation: "The commander is afraid of war?"
"Of course." Huo Tingyu answered quickly, almost being the first interpreter.
"War is the fastest way to destroy a region, whether it is its economy or its people's hearts."
Chen Jinjun nodded: "But this time, I am the Zhou family's target, so the Jiang family's target is you, the commander-in-chief."
"They want to use the marriage proposal to arouse my anger. If you nod, I'm afraid I won't go to the Jiang family, but directly to the Zhou family." Chen Jinjun rolled his eyes and had already confused Zhou Zhaoyuan and Zhou Zhaoyuan.
Jiang Lu guessed most of the plot.
Huo Tingyu nodded, and he also thought of this: "I won't nod."
"ah?"
Chen Jinjun was a little confused by his meaningless words.
When Huo Tingyu saw Chen Jinjun's reaction, he knew that Chen Jinjun had not thought of that, so he could only explain himself: "I mean, I won't let my employer marry her."
The love in his eyes was so obvious that Chen Jinjun couldn't help but avoid Huo Tingyu's eyes.
"I signed a treaty with the Marshal. He has so many soldiers that my Chen family has to pay to support them. Moreover, the theater has not yet been built. It would be ridiculous for the Marshal to drive me away at this time."
Chen Jinjun hurriedly explained Huo Tingyu's words with other things, as if this would make Huo Tingyu give up.
Huo Tingyu naturally knew that Chen Jinjun was looking for reasons to avoid the relationship between the two.
Speaking of which, the two of them are more like partners moving forward hand in hand.
At least, that's how it looks in Chen Jinjun's eyes.
Chen Jinjun straightened his expression and looked at Huo Tingyu: "Commander, what do you think we should do about this matter?"
Huo Tingyu thought thoughtfully: "If it is really what we think, then the Jiang family will definitely not give up and they will come back again."
"If we come again, it will definitely be one of the Jiang family and his son." Chen Jinjun held his chin in his hand.
Huo Tingyu nodded, "You are right. Based on my understanding of the two of them, there will be two people coming, not just one."
There was a hint of solemnity on Chen Jinjun's face: "If Chai Yang takes advantage of this incident and wants to go to war with Yongzhou..."
"Then let's fight," Huo Tingyu said calmly, "There have been so many years of enmity. If you really deliberately seek trouble, then I will be happy to resolve the grievances here directly."
"Although the Zhou family has declined over the years, the property left by our ancestors is enough for them to make a comeback. Commander, you and I have to be on guard." Chen Jinjun looked at Huo Tingyu, his narrowed eyes flashing with calculation.
