There was a huge space in the carriage, and the two of them sat in silence facing each other.
Liu Qi raised his head and saw Xin Xianying holding a book and flipping through it. He had no intention of speaking and could only say: "You dance very well."
"Thank you." Xin Xianying raised her head slightly and said calmly.
"Uh." Liu Qi was a little embarrassed by Xin Xianying's attitude. Xin Xianying didn't clean up his face in front of others. She ignored him at this time, presumably to retaliate for his actions in the hall just now. Although Liu Qi thought highly of the girl's behavior,
He is blind, but he also knows that the woman in front of him is not a light-hearted person, and may be more difficult to deal with than the eccentric Xiao Qiao.
After such a woman marries home, she will either manage the backyard in an orderly manner, or she will make the backyard indifferent. However, from the fact that she did not confront her in front of outsiders just now, it can be seen that this woman is not careless.
The overall picture of women.
"When did you know about our engagement?" Liu Qi looked at the extremely quiet woman in front of him and asked.
Xin Xianying said directly without raising her head: "You will know it when you are sensible."
"What do you think of this marriage?" Liu Qi asked.
The girl opposite finally looked away from the bamboo slip in her hand and raised her head. She looked at Liu Qi, and there was no emotion in her voice: "How dare you have any opinions on the orders of your parents and the words of a matchmaker."
"This... there must be an idea, whether you are willing or unwilling, or whether you are willing." Liu Qi knew that the girl in front of him was trying to evade, otherwise the girl's intelligence would not know the intention of Liu Qi's words.
"If the eldest son doesn't want to, you can just tell your uncle directly. You shouldn't ask me." The girl said calmly.
"You." Liu Qi pointed at the girl and was speechless. He sighed helplessly and stopped talking.
Seeing a girl like Liu Qi, the corner of her mouth curled up, and a smile flashed across her eyes. Then she regained her composure and lowered her head again to look at the book in front of her.
Seeing the girl so calm, Liu Qi felt a little depressed. This was the first time Liu Qi had encountered such a difficult woman to deal with. The girls around him, whether it was Wan'er or Da Qiao, were all gentle-tempered, without even the slightest temper, even if they were a little petty.
Qiao has a slightly tough personality, but he won't be as confrontational with him as the woman in front of him.
"Xianying, did you hear about the situation in the north when you were in the north?" Thinking of what he saw from the cloth a few days ago, Liu Qi couldn't help but ask.
"A war will break out within ten days." Xin Xianying glanced at Liu Qi in surprise and said.
Liu Qi didn't expect Xin Xianying to answer and was a little surprised, but after hearing her answer, his face changed and he asked anxiously: "Are you serious?"
"Since you don't believe it, why are you still asking me?" Xin Xianying put down the bamboo slips in her hand and looked at Liu Qi with a frown.
Liu Qi was indeed angry at Xin Xianying's words. But thinking of what he said, Liu Qi still took a deep breath and said: "What did Xianying say? I'm just a little confused. How can Xianying know the situation in the north since he is in Jingzhou?"
Jingzhou and Jizhou are so far apart that even a fast horse would take more than ten days. It has been more than ten days since Xin Xianying and Xin Pi arrived in Jingzhou together. How did she know the situation in the north?
Seeing that Liu Qi was not angry, Xin Xianying's smile became thicker under the face mask. Mansi stretched out his jade hands to straighten the hair beside his ears. Seeing that the anger in Liu Qi's eyes could not be concealed, he said: "Before, every few days in Jizhou
We will send people to inquire about the alliance with uncle every time, but we haven’t seen anyone coming in the past few days. This shows that Jizhou is ready and does not want to rely on uncle’s power anymore. Moreover, when we left, Yuan Benchu
He had already planned to attack Cao Cao, but Tian Feng and others held him back on the grounds that the soldiers were not ready for food and grass. At this time, I am afraid that Yuan Benchu can't wait any longer."
Although he was a little surprised that the girl called Yuan Shao his name, Liu Qi could no longer care about it. The girl in front of him thoroughly analyzed the situation in Jizhou. Historically, it was Yuan Shao who was eager to unify the north and rashly sent troops to attack Cao Cao, which ultimately led to his defeat.
"Who do you think will start the war first, Yuan Benchu or Cao Mengde?" Liu Qi looked at the girl in front of him and asked.
"Of course it's Yuan Benchu." Xin Xianying replied without thinking.
"Then why can't it be Cao Mengde?" Liu Qi looked at Xin Xianying with a slightly different look. The intelligence of the person in front of him was not something that ordinary women could possess.
"Compared to Yuan Benchu, Cao Mengde's power is too weak. Naturally, he will not attack with an egg against a stone. The longer it takes, the better it is for him." Xin Xianying seemed to have forgotten Liu Qi's actions in the main hall and answered all Liu Qi's questions.
"Since there will be a fight sooner or later, why didn't Cao Mengde suddenly attack and catch Yuan Shao off guard?" Liu Qi already knew that what Liu Biao said was true, and the talent of the girl in front of him might be even better than that of his father Xin Pi.
Xin Xianying shook his head and said: "Although it is advantageous for Cao Cao to coerce the emperor to control the princes, he is weak at this time. If Yuan Benchu is the first to attack Cao Cao, it will be treason. Cao Mengde will naturally get twice the result with half the effort in the name of the emperor, but if Cao Cao takes the initiative to attack Yuan Shao, the effect will be less.
It's just a big difference. Cao Mengde has many capable people who would not agree to his doing this."
Xin Xianying seemed to have a good understanding of the current situation as he talked. Even Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu's thoughts were clearly understood.
"Then who do you think will win this battle?" Liu Qi looked at Xin Xianying and asked, if he can even answer this question, then his talent will probably not be much lower than that of Xu Shu.
Xin Xianying didn't seem to realize Liu Qi's temptation and said: "Although Yuan Benchu has a huge power, whether it is the number of troops, sophisticated weapons, or good generals, he is much stronger than Cao Mengde. It seems that he has a greater chance of winning. Although Cao Mengde is not weak,
, but compared with Yuan Benchu, there is still a big difference. His only advantage is that he can take the emperor's name to fight against rebellion. Another point is that he wants to take advantage of Yuan Benchu's character weakness, being suspicious and jealous. If Cao Mengde can use this to provoke Yuan Benchu's subordinates,
With the relationship, he can seize the opportunity to defeat Yuan Benzhu, but it will not be easy."
"Not to mention that Cao Cao also has this problem, or that it is a common problem among all the princes in the world. None of Yuan Benchu's subordinates are easy to deal with. It is not so easy for Cao Mengde to provoke him. The most important thing is that Cao Mengde has
There have been frequent wars in several states in recent years, and there is not much tax revenue and food at all. If I were Yuan Benchu, I would be able to drag Cao Mengde to death just by dragging him on."
"As for who will win, it's hard to say. After all, no one can predict the rapid changes on the battlefield. There are many examples of the weak defeating the strong and relying on the strong to bully the weak." Xin Xianying sighed at the end.
"Huh?" Xin Xianying saw that Liu Qi didn't speak after saying that. She couldn't help but look up at Liu Qi. She saw Liu Qi looking at her in disbelief and her eyes kept turning on her. She couldn't help but feel angry and annoyed. She said this.
He didn't even listen to a word.
"Hahaha..." At this moment, Liu Qi suddenly burst into laughter, looked at Xin Xianying who looked embarrassed and said: "Okay, okay, Wolong has Yueying, who has both talent and virtue, and makes others envious. I have Xianying."
, but it doesn’t lose anything, so good, good, good.”
Liu Qi said a few good words, and even Gan Ning and others outside the carriage heard Liu Qi's voice. Gan Ning and Ma Zhong both looked at the carriage, wondering what ability the woman in the car had that could make Liu Qi
So happy.
"What did you say?" Xin Xianying exclaimed, looking at Liu Qi who looked crazy. Liu Qi's reaction shocked him. She didn't even hear clearly what Liu Qi said.
"I said my wife is a female Zhuge." Liu Qi stopped laughing and looked in front of him, and finally said every word like a young girl Xin Xianying.
"You...who is your wife!"
Either Liu Qi's change was too fast, or he was shocked by Liu Qi's words. The girl's face, which had always been calm under the scarf, showed a panicked expression for the first time. The girl stared at Liu Qi and said.
"I said yes, you are!" Liu Qi leaned forward so that his face was almost close to the girl's hijab, looking at the panicked expression under the girl's hijab and said in a deep voice.
The girl looked at Liu Qi's face with panic in her eyes. She could even see the hair on Liu Qi's face and feel the hot breath Liu Qi breathed out: "You...what are you going to do? I'm not your wife!"
"That's it now!"
Liu Qi suddenly reached out and grabbed the girl's slender arm and pulled hard. Amidst the girl's exclamation, he pulled the girl into his arms. The fragrance filled his arms. Without waiting for the girl's reaction, Liu Qi lowered his head and kissed the girl's red lips through the scarf.
.
"Ugh!"
After being sneak-attacked by Liu Qi, the girl was stunned for a moment, and then struggled with her hands and feet to get out of Liu Qi's arms. At the same time, she shook her head desperately in the hope of getting rid of the red lips kissed by Liu Qi.
Liu Qi allowed her to escape, holding the girl's waist with one hand, and hugged the girl's shoulders along the girl's pink back with the other hand, pressing the girl into his arms, and at the same time bent down to let the girl in his arms move behind her.
Lift your head.
"This..." The voice in the carriage could not be hidden from Gan Ning and Ma Zhong. Both of them looked at the carriage in surprise. They did not expect Liu Qi to be so anxious.
"No, we can't let the eldest son go on like this, it will only make him more and more addicted to it." Ma Zhong thought it was a sign that Liu Qi was addicted to women again.
"Wait a minute, you have been following my lord for so long and you still don't understand me. If my lord is like this, then wouldn't the two ladies, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, have already become my lord's women? The woman in the car can be even older than him.
Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Xiao Qiao can't do it." Gan Ning grabbed Ma Zhong and whispered.
"My lord must have a reason for doing this. Now go ahead and let my lord deal with himself." Gan Ning pulled Ma Zhong aside and said.
"Everyone steps back ten steps and no one is allowed to get close to the carriage." Before Ma Zhong could react, Gan Ning ordered. After saying that, he stepped forward and pulled the driver out of the carriage. He personally pulled the carriage to a remote place.
Stop, and the Jin Yiwei will guard the surroundings to prevent anyone from approaching.
