When Zhang Qingjiu walked towards Wei Tunan's camp with brisk steps, the man who was busy suddenly paused in his movements and turned around to look at the visitor with a wary face.
Zhang Qingjiu stretched out his hand to open the curtain, as if he didn't notice the "rejection" written on the other person's face, and raised the corner of his mouth, "Honghong, what are you busy with?"
Wei Tunan rolled his eyes, "Can't you tell?"
The little girl has been living a very lively life these past few days, spending time with Chu Lan day and night. Although the plan she came up with in the end allowed them to reconcile as before, it was originally going to take at least three to five days.
Being cracked by that kid so easily, Wei Tunan, who came back to his senses, still felt some indescribable feelings in his heart.
It's like... being calculated.
"Oh, let's pack things up." Zhang Qingjiu touched his nose and smiled so happily.
Wei Tunan turned around and crossed his arms, raising his eyebrows: "Aren't you ready to go back?"
"Honghong, you may not be able to come back for the time being." Zhang Qingjiu picked up the tea set that Wei Tunan had packed, picked out one to play with, turned around and sat down aside.
"What do you mean?" Wei Tunan raised an eyebrow, "Aren't you going back to get married? What are you thinking about?"
"What's wrong? Honghong, let's see what you say." Zhang Qingjiu waved his hand with a smile, "Of course I want to go back and get married."
"Then what you just said..." Wei Tunan thought about it for a moment, and his eyes widened for a moment, "You mean you won't take me back?"
Although he was thinking so in his heart, Zhang Qingjiu felt a little embarrassed to be exposed in such a frank manner. Looking at Wei Tunan's angry eyes, he turned his head and looked away, "No.
I won’t take you…”
"Isn't this clear enough?" Wei Tunan almost laughed angrily, "Did I understand it wrong?"
"That's right, but it's not that I won't take you with me." Zhang Qingjiu thought for a while, turned his head, and said sincerely: "It's because you promised me that you won't go back with us."
"When did I promise you?" Wei Tunan took a deep breath. He couldn't be angry. If he was so angry, there would be no one to replace him.
"Last time, Chu Lan and I reconciled, and you said you would do something for me." Zhang Qingjiu blinked, "Has Honghong forgotten?"
Wei Tunan was startled for a moment, the corner of his mouth twitched, and the finger pointing at Zhang Qingjiu began to tremble, "But I didn't promise not to go back."
"It's not that I won't go back, it's just that I won't go back with us." Zhang Qingjiu sighed and explained "quite patiently" with an expression like that of a child who couldn't listen to the reasoning of his elders.
Wei Tunan became even more furious, "Why is this?"
Fortunately, he was still thinking about what kind of wedding gifts to prepare for them.
"Because I want to ask you to kill someone for me after we leave." Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
Wei Tunan was stunned at first, but soon his face became serious, "Who?"
"Murong Chunlai." Zhang Qingjiu said word by word.
"Isn't he already dead?" Wei Tunan frowned. From such a high place, he only saved Chu Lan. Murong Chunlai fell with his own eyes.
That night when Mu Qing said he saw Murong Chunlai's figure, he wanted to laugh. If Chu Lan hadn't been in a panic, how could he have been fooled?
"Not dead." Zhang Qingjiu breathed out softly.
"Are you sure?" Wei Tunan also suppressed the disdain on his face.
"His fate... is very strange." Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes, "I have deduced him before. If he wanted to die, he should have died long ago."
"Weird?" Wei Tunan was startled, "Is he the same?"
"I don't know." Zhang Qingjiu shook his head, "So Honghong, I can only ask you for this matter."
"You know how to look for me at this time. Why don't you think of me for other good things?" Wei Tunan snorted softly, took the cup back in her hand, and wiped it carefully.
"Why isn't this a good thing?" Upon hearing what Wei Tunan said, Zhang Qingjiu's heart suddenly dropped.
"You think of me when you commit murder and arson. Can this be considered a good thing?" Wei Tunan gently poked Zhang Qingjiu's head, "People say that you are stupid after being pregnant for three years. You are not stupid. Do you think my uncle and I don't have enough brains?
Yet?"
"That's what Honghong said." Zhang Qingjiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he could only continue to coax: "Look at you being named the God of War of the Great Hui. You definitely don't want to see the Great Hui continue to fight. You haven't relaxed your muscles and bones for a long time, why not
Let’s practice with him.”
Wei Tunan finally understood it now, "What do you mean? Do you mean to let me assassinate him?"
Zhang Qingjiu: "Yeah."
Wei Tunan refused without hesitation, "I won't go."
He is a majestic God of War, upright and upright, but this stinky girl actually asked him to do such a villainous act?
Zhang Qingjiu had expected Wei Tunan's rejection, otherwise he wouldn't have made so much preparation just now.
"You promised me."
"Honghong can't break his promise."
"Honghong, a gentleman's words are hard to catch up with."
…
Wei Tunan: "..."
Zhang Qingjiu was neither angry nor slow, and Wei Tunan's face grew darker as he listened.
Finally, Wei Tunan couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Give me a reason why I have to assassinate him."
"Waging a war wastes people and money, and the people are in dire straits, and their lives are in ruins." Zhang Qingjiu replied immediately.
Wei Tunan grinded his molars, "That's what war is like. In a battle to protect our country, it's either you or me. How do you expect this to be so peaceful?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qingjiu fell silent for a moment.
Yes, it was precisely because of this that she didn't want Chu Lan to continue fighting.
The conversation between that group of people in the inn that day is still vivid in my mind.
Under war, it is hard for people to be prosperous and hard for people to die.
She didn't want to hear these words again, let alone those people saying that Chu Lan was heartless.
That's why she told Huo Wu that she was going back to get married when she said that Murong Chunlai was still alive and wanted to continue the expedition.
As long as we can bring them all back, this war will naturally not be fought for a while.
But Murong Chunlai had to get rid of him.
Otherwise, this battle will always start again one day.
She was thinking about Chu Lan, and she should also think about what Chu Lan thought.
But in order to avoid complications, she must not use Chu Lan's people, otherwise he will definitely know that she knows about this matter.
Therefore, letting Honghong kill Murong Chunlai is the best choice.
Firstly, Honghong was very capable, and secondly, Murong Chun definitely didn't know him well either, so he would be the easiest to succeed.
Wei Tunan didn't expect that when he said this, his little girl would suddenly become silent, and for a moment he felt a little mixed.
It's not that he really doesn't want to do this, it's just that this little girl hasn't told him the truth until now.
But if she doesn't say it, doesn't she know that in the final analysis, isn't this matter just for Chu Lan and to fulfill Chu Lan's righteousness?
"Have you already planned this matter?"
"How could it be? I can't deduce it now, and I don't know that Murong Chunlai is not dead yet."
Zhang Qingjiu spread his hands and looked innocent.
Wei Tunan gave her a meaningful look, stepped forward and patted her shoulder, put the cup back into her hand, and finally sighed, "Go back and say hello to your mother first, and tell her that I
came back."
"Honghong?" Zhang Qingjiu's heart skipped a beat and he raised his eyes happily.
"Of the eight hundred tricks, six hundred were given to Chu Lan." Wei Tunan rolled his eyes at her, his tone was a little angry, and finally he couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, go back and prepare for the marriage in peace, then...
...Uncle will definitely come back to get you married."
