Han Xiang

Chapter 384 The Bystander, Miss Seiji

"How did Xiao Jun know?"

Long Xiang was surprised at this time, and said in his heart that this secret has been hidden in my heart, and Hefei only knows about it, so why does it seem to be on the hot search?
Qiao Wan smiled sweetly and said, "Husband has forgotten sister Xiahou?"

"You mean Mr. Yide is really smart"

Long Xiang patted his forehead violently. He believed that Zhang Fei would never discuss military affairs with Xia Houjuan because of Zhang Fei's rough but delicate personality. The only explanation was that the second lady was quick-witted.

"Hee hee, if I were a man, I would advise my husband."

Seeing Qiao Wan's playful posture, Long Xiang pinched her face lightly, and jokingly said: "If the second young lady is a man, I think I will let you and the third brother move bricks, but can't we make suggestions now? Need to separate men and women?"

Qiao Wan was surprised and asked back: "If your husband doesn't dislike the opinion of a concubine as a woman, why don't you tell me about your troubles. Ordinary people have heard that one person is wise and the other is good. Maybe I can share my worries? This matter has something to do with Liu Xuande. relation?"

Long Xiang frowned and nodded: "My husband thinks that Liu Shijun can help the Han family, so he secretly recognized him as the master early on, but he still pretended not to be familiar with him on the surface;
But today I was drinking and chatting with Chen Yuanlong, maybe I couldn’t help but say something, and he noticed the secret in my heart, I am worried that if this matter gets out, it will not be good for Hefei or Liu Shijun.”

"Chen Yuanlong?" Qiao Wan looked suspicious: "Isn't my husband planning to ask him to give my third brother a letter? This shows that your relationship should be good, and he will betray his friend and spread the word?"

"Sell out a friend?"

Long Xiang shook his head and smiled wryly: "For a big family like the Chen family in Xuzhou, their family interests are above all else, not to mention friends whose friendship is as thin as paper, even the interests of the country can be damaged. Moreover, this matter is just a guess for the husband. If Chen Yuanlong I didn’t know at first, and I didn’t tell myself.”

"The big clan is acting so ruthlessly?"

After hearing this, Qiao Wan frowned and pondered, and said to herself, if what her husband said is true, why does her mother yearn for the rich family so wholeheartedly?

Qiao Wan's life experience is not enough. She doesn't know that the Chen family's persistent thinking is actually the best solution for ordinary people. Although the aristocratic family acts for the benefit first, sometimes it will do things that violate morality, but the children of the rich family can be the best. Live a peaceful life.

This is like ordinary people in the future, who not only have to work hard for their lives, but also worry about their children's school district housing and cram schools, fearing that their children will lose at the starting line;
And the offspring of those rich and powerful chaebols are born in a completely different life track. They don't need to take 985 and 211 when they are young, and they don't need to take 996 and 007 when they are adults;

Even if these children are ignorant, they can live a life without worrying about food and clothing. With a little effort, they can stand on the shoulders of their parents and become the wavers of the times.

Although the end point is death, the classes are different, and the starting point of life is very different.

Chen didn't give Long Xiang much good looks before, but he still didn't show disgust in his heart, because he felt that Chen was making the choice of ordinary people.

Seeing Qiao Wan frowned in thought, Long Xiang sighed, and asked back: "It's not that the big clan is ruthless, it's the family interests that make them ruthless. If I really help Liu Shijun help the Han family and make the Long family the leader of the big clan with power over the government, At that time, the emperor asked me to hand over my rights and only give a few acres of Susukida for the Long family to live on. Are you willing to be the mistress of the Long family?"

"This..." Qiao Wan paused, and tentatively replied: "Since he is a hero of the country, shouldn't the emperor be like this?"

"Hahaha."

Long Xiang knocked on the table and shook his head with a smile: "It's just an analogy for my husband, but there are also ready-made examples. Cao Cao welcomed the emperor into Xudu and let him escape from Li Jue's control. Is this a great contribution to the community? But why did the emperor Do you want to draw up a blood edict, ordering the princes of the world to punish Cao Cao? This is politics, but it is also human nature."

People can speak freely before they get it, and they will protect their rights and wealth after they really have it.

Qiao Wan has not yet become the mistress of the big clan at this time, so although she understands the truth, she still has the mentality of a little girl.

"Since power is so dangerous, why don't we climb so high? It's fine like Hefei is now."

"Sometimes people can't help themselves. When Yuan Shu wanted to usurp the throne and proclaim himself emperor, didn't everyone, including his uncle, support it? It is said that everyone betrayed the big man, but they had to submit to reality. Cough cough. Let's talk about Chen Yuanlong;
No matter Liu Shijun, Lu Bu or Cao Cao, whoever is in charge of the Chen family in Xuzhou will support him. With Chen Yuanlong's wisdom, he can't tell the good from the bad? "

Seeing Long Xiang's pessimistic words, Qiao Wan said softly after thinking about it:
"Don't worry, my husband. If this incident really happens, you just need to think about a countermeasure. Anyway, there is no evidence, so you can't admit it? If Chen Yuanlong also has this intention, aren't we multiple external allies?"

"It's said that bystanders are clear. Listening to Xiaojun's words today made me suddenly enlightened." Long Xiang held Qiao Wan's hand very excitedly.

Qiao Wan smiled mischievously: "Hey, I just said that I can share my husband's worries? Do you believe me now?"

"I believe it, I believe it, the general will ask the second lady for instructions more in the future."

"It seems that the night is getting late, husband, go back to the front yard to rest."

"Second Miss is always bold, so you don't intend to keep me?"

"Oh, isn't this inconvenient? Mother will come later."

Long Xiang was pushed out of the middle hall of the main room by Qiao Wan, but went to the front yard humming a little tune happily. The troubles that had plagued him all afternoon were resolved by twisting his fingers, and he felt that he would be able to sleep well tonight.

In the next few days, Long Xiang went to the post house to find Chen Deng to drink a few times, taking advantage of the matter of Qiao Ni's writing, and found that Chen Deng seemed to have no bad intentions.

After the farewell feast, Long Xiang called Lu Su, Mi Heng, Feng Zhong, Xu Ding and other civil and military officials from Xincheng to accompany them. They formed a circle in front of the main hall of Xiaowei's Mansion and tasted the pork roasted by Huwei.

Chen Deng tasted it like an electric shock, and his sense of taste unlocked a new delicacy at that moment. He sighed that roast pork is so delicious?
Compared with mutton, which is more woody and more savory, roast pork has only a pure meaty aroma.

Chen Deng is a person who likes to eat and can eat. After eating a piece, he thought of the ingredients, so he cupped his hands and said to Xu Chu: "General Xu, can you give me a bunch of unroasted raw meat?"

"Raw meat?"

Xu Chu looked at Long Xiang in surprise. He knew that Chen Deng was seriously ill from eating raw fish, so now he doesn't eat raw fish and eats raw pork instead?You have such a unique taste?
Long Xiang caught Xu Chu's eyes and replied without hesitation: "According to Yuan Long's request, if you spoil your stomach, you can ask Mr. Hua to recuperate."

"Oh"

Xu Chu was afraid that Chen Deng would not have enough to eat, so he grabbed a handful and handed it over.

"One string is enough, one string is enough."

Chen Deng was completely unaware that others had misunderstood him. He picked up a skewer of meat and put it under his nose to sniff. There was only a slight salty smell but no smell of pork, so he asked curiously, "How is this pork processed? It doesn't have any fishy smell?"

"Treatment?" Xu Chu shook his head and said, "It's just washing with water, and then rubbing some salt on it."

Long Xiang understood now, and explained to Chen Deng with a smile: "All the pigs in Hefei are like this. If Yuan Long wants to learn, I can teach you."

"Please let me know."

Chen Deng can't eat raw fish now, so he is very happy to have barbecue instead.
