Chapter 142: Deceiving Uncle Sheng (40)
–
The next day, Su Huang appeared in Sheng Qianmo’s military camp for the first time.
He went to the firing range to pass time, where Li Qi came and told him, “Lord Su Huang, His Highness asked you to go and find him.”
Su Huang put down his bow and arrow and passed it to Li Qi. Sheng Qianmo had just arrived at the camp and sat down to take a sip of tea.
Su Huang saw this and smiled. “I didn’t expect Prince Qianmo to arrive late.”
Sheng Qianmo knew Su Huang wouldn’t have come to the camp but for something important. He ordered someone to serve the other man tea and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Su Huang sat down and began sipping the tea with leisure. He smiled faintly and said, “This is not an urgent matter, but I still think it is necessary to remind you.”
Sheng Qianmo stared at him with dim eyes.
Su Huang took another sip and continued, “Old Marquis Ji received news from his people in the Nan Chao Kingdom. A spy from there has sneaked in from the northern wall. You should know that all their spies are clever.”
Everyone knew Su Huang’s tragedy, so it took an instant for Sheng Qianmo to understand what he meant. He said lightly, “She is a person from the Qing.”
Su Huang shrugged his brows. “I doubt the little girl in your family is involved. I just want to remind you that a spy has been mixed in, and you have a large army in your hands. It is always good to be careful.”
“I know that.”
Su Huang lazily stretched his back again, apparently from waking up too early, which had made him sleepy again. He yawned and remembered something before moving his smiling lips. “I heard before that the royal family and nobles in the Qing Dynasty are all great, but I didn’t expect a little princess to have so many talents. Can play the guqin and can read. Ah, her archery is also good…
“Qianmo, no matter what you think, as a brother, I hope you will still check her history carefully. Don’t fall over and regret when the time comes.”
Su Huang had said everything he’d come to say. After finishing his tea, he got up and decided to leave.
“She is not Zi Jing, and I am not you,” Sheng Qianmo said lightly. He understood why Su Huang had told him all this.
Perhaps because it had been a long time since he’d heard the name “Zi Jing” from someone’s mouth, but Su Huang’s footsteps paused in place. It took a long time before he gently raised his eyebrows and turned back to look straight at the other man and said, “Sheng Qianmo, you have to admit that you are attached to this little girl. And this is not a good thing. You know very well that before long there will be war in southern Xinjiang. If southern Xinjiang cannot keep up, our kingdom will open half of the gate to Nan Chao Kingdom. I don’t want you to repeat what happened five years ago.”
T/N: Meas will engage in war to Nan Chao Kingdom
Losing the city five years ago had made Su Huang never return to the battlefield. Sheng Qianmo had been in the battlefield for so many years. He knew well what was important.
“I won’t sink in. You don’t have to worry.”
He was still capable of separating with a little girl.
Su Huang looked at him for a while. The corners of his mouth slowly hooked up. “This is the best thing.”
He had also underestimated Sheng Qianmo. After all, the other man had remained calm and considerate throughout the situation. The most important thing was that they were not young now, different from when they were frivolous.
