    ?

    Unknowingly staying at Maoshi in Hanxiang Building, the building was full of lights, Chu Yao realized that it was getting late, bid farewell to Su Yan, and took Liu Shu back to the hotel.

    "I was outside the door just now, and the servant listened to the lady playing a startling song. Did the lady tell you the identity of Mr. Suyan?" Liu Shu wondered.  This song has a special tune, even if Liu Shu is not good at rhythm, it is hard to forget after listening to it once.  She has been with Chuyao for many years, and this is only the second time she has heard the sermon.

    Chuyao shook his head, looked at the setting sun, and sighed softly: "I thought the Song Mansion was completely burned down, but I didn't expect to see that amazing music score."

    Liu Shu was also quite surprised: "Mr. Suyan is Miss' bosom friend, and also got Miss's music scores. There is such a coincidence in the world."

    Chu Yao smiled slightly, and stopped in front of the restaurant: "Liu Shu, I suddenly want to drink."

    At this time, the restaurant was full of people, and it was the best time for business. The private rooms were full, so they had to sit down in a corner of the lobby.

    "I heard that King Ning of Yan State, Second Prince Duanhe of Meng State, and Prince An Ran of Li State have all arrived in the capital. Which country do you think will marry His Majesty?"

    As soon as Chuyao and the others sat down, they heard the other table discussing the biggest matter in the capital of Wenguo. The second son of Duan He, could it be Duan Hekang's brother?

    "I think King Ning is the most likely. In terms of popularity, status, and talent, the people from the other two countries are far apart."

    "Not necessarily, the second son Duanhe belongs to the crown prince of Mongolia. Maybe he is here to ask for a marriage for the crown prince. Although Mongolia was defeated by Yan State not long ago, its national strength is not equal, so I think the one selected by Queping is Mongolia.  The country is not necessarily."

    "According to you, Li Guo is the most hopeless?"

    "Although the capital city of Li was captured by the Mongolian country more than ten years ago, it is regarded as a subordinate country of the Mongolian country, but it has gradually been out of the control of the Mongolian country in the past few years. It is not impossible, but I heard that the son of An Ran is not in good health.  "

    When Chuyao was listening, the food and wine had already been served.

    In the current situation of the Four Kingdoms, this Princess Fengzheng obviously wants to disturb the spring water, but she does have to make a choice. Within the Four Kingdoms, according to the situation, no matter how you look at it, choosing Xiao Jing is the most beneficial for Wenguo  .

    Firstly, it can calm down Wen Guo¡¯s incident of Wu Ji¡¯s assassination of Emperor Huai some time ago; secondly, Yan State is powerful, so it can be a good choice for attachment; thirdly, in terms of talent and appearance, Xiao is not an ideal husband-in-law.

    "Miss, do you think Her Majesty the Empress of Wen Kingdom will choose King Ning?" Liu Shu asked in a low voice.  It's been a few days since I came to Wen Kingdom, but I haven't seen the Empress summon King Ning, and King Ning doesn't seem to have any intention of marrying her.

    Chuyao smiled and said nothing, she couldn't figure out Xiao Jing's thoughts, let alone a monarch who had never met, she was still a thoughtful and extremely intelligent woman.

    The current monarch of the Li Kingdom, An Qi, is the younger brother of the previous monarch, An Zhan. An Qi opened the city gate to welcome the enemy troops from the Mongolian Kingdom, which led to the rapid fall of the Li Kingdom.  Since then, although the Li country has not been truly annexed by the Mongolian country, various unequal treaties have been signed, requiring the Mongolian country to pay a harsh amount of tribute every year.  Such a harsh tribute made it difficult for Li Guo to develop an army.

    This may also be one of the reasons why Mongolia did not annex Li at that time. If it could not raise an army, it would naturally be unable to fight against them.  The city wall jumped down, and the king and the mother committed suicide one after another. This aroused the anger of the people of the Li country. If they reluctantly annexed it, it would hurt others and themselves.

    The son of An Ran in their mouth is the son of An Qi. It is reasonable to say that the son of the king of a country is the prince, but An Qi is very strange. His sons are all titles of princes, and they are not named princes, let alone princes.  However, An Qi was in his prime of life, so he probably didn't want to have a dispute for the emperor's heir early.

    With Li Guo's current situation, the chances of Emperor Feng choosing him are very slim.

    Chuyao took a sip of wine, and casually listened to the discussions of various people in the tavern about this recruitment.  Now in the capital of Wen Kingdom, there are many talented people from all over the world, so the tavern is naturally mixed with dragons and snakes, but it is only in such a place where dragons and snakes mix together that people can listen to the opinions of all parties.

    "Maybe I won't choose any of them. Think about it, no matter which country's nobles and royal descendants you choose, it will give them the possibility of losing the Wen Kingdom in a legitimate way."

    "It makes sense." Several people around agreed.

    Suddenly, several people approached the tavern, led by a man wearing a half mask.  In the capital of Wen Kingdom these days, there are not a few people with weird clothes, so everyone just looked sideways and continued to say what they said.

    Chu Yao was horrified, the exposed half of his face was clearly Duan Hekang!

    She immediately lowered her head and simply did not sit in the corner, as if she hadn't been noticed.

      Liu Shu obviously noticed it too, the hand holding the chopsticks trembled in surprise, and a chopstick rolled to the ground.  It was nothing in the noisy restaurant, but the man who had already stepped up to the second floor suddenly turned his head to look down.

    At that moment, Chuyao thought it was over, but he just took a look, then turned his head and continued walking.

    After his group entered the private room on the second floor, Chuyao breathed a sigh of relief, took the silver and put it on the table, and left in a hurry with Liu Shu.

    "Miss, that person in the tavern"

    "No, he's not Duan Hekang, he should be Duan Heye, Duan Hekang's younger brother." Chu Yao frowned, thinking of this possibility.

    If it was Duan Hekang, how could he not recognize her, and let her go so easily, he was forced to jump off the cliff by Xiao Jing at that time, and with his heart, he would definitely come back with revenge.

    Moreover, the man in the tavern looked at people differently from Duan Hekang. I was shocked just now, but it was really that exact face. Now that I think about it carefully, I feel that there are many differences.

    Not daring to stay outside any longer, hurried back to the hotel, just in time to meet Xiao Jing who hadn't seen him for three days.

    Chu Yao was taken aback for a moment, Xiao Jing was sitting in the front hall, as if he was waiting for her to come back.

    "I'm back." Xiao Jing said in an extremely natural tone, which gave Chuyao the illusion that there was no conflict between them in the garden that day.

    Seeing that the atmosphere between them was not right, Liu Shu retreated consciously.

    "I met Duan Heye."

    "I know."

    Although Xiao Jing did not restrict her actions, he secretly ordered someone to follow her. In fact, Chuyao knew this in his heart, but he didn't expect him to admit it so easily, which made her not know how to answer the words.

    "These few days, if it's not peaceful, try to go out as little as possible." Xiao Jing put down his teacup, looked up at her and said.

    After finishing speaking, I got up and wanted to leave.

    Seeing the back of him about to leave, Chuyao didn't know why, so he blurted out and asked: "What are your plans?" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
