Chapter 677 Let go of that military advisor
Lu Yizhou took advantage of the situation and made some arrangements to help Su Boqian find out the spies lurking in the Su Mansion. He then followed the clues and interrogated the mastermind behind the scenes.
The mastermind behind the scenes was none other than Zhang Min, who was far away in Dongxiang.
This hero in troubled times also gathered many wise counselors and generals around him. He realized early on that South Vietnam was a huge threat and began to make secret plans early on.
Instigating hostility between South Vietnam and Huizhou is just one of the strategies.
After Su Boqian knew the truth, although he was very angry, he calmed down according to Lu Yizhou's advice and pretended to be unaware of it.
At the same time, he secretly revealed Zhang Wen's conspiracy to Zhao Mao in Huizhou.
In Lu Yizhou's words, since Zhang Wen can do the first day, he can also do the fifteenth, and give him a taste of his own medicine.
The result was just as Lu Yizhou had expected. When Zhao Mao of Huizhou learned the truth, he became furious and turned against Dongxiang.
Zhang Wen not only failed to gain anything but also created an enemy for herself.
However, because of his brilliant planning of this matter, Lu Yizhou's status in the Su Mansion in Nanyue rose rapidly.
Even the generals who initially thought he was young and unconvinced would now bow their heads and respectfully address him as "Mr. Lu" when they meet him.
The current situation is still unclear. South Vietnam insists on not making enemies with its neighbors, and there is no war anywhere. Su Boqian follows Lu Yizhou's advice and continues to recruit talents from all over the world to accumulate his own power.
He became increasingly dependent on Lu Yizhou and wished he could eat and sleep with him.
Shi Li often couldn't bear to see Lu Yizhou all day long.
She was used to it. When she had nothing to do, she would change into men's clothes and go out for a stroll. Her life was not much different from before.
One day, he went out alone again and happened to meet Madam Su's sedan chair on the street.
Old Madam Su had been living in her hometown before. This time she missed her two sons, so she brought people here.
Su Zhongyao waited outside the city early, received the old lady's sedan chair, and went into the city with her, but he didn't expect to meet Shi Li on the street first.
"This is Mr. Lu's sister. She is so beautiful."
Old Madam Su had heard of Shi Li from the letters sent back by her eldest son. She got out of the sedan chair and took her hand to look at her. After she finished speaking, she glanced at her youngest son who was standing beside her.
As she expected, Su Zhongyao turned his head to the other side awkwardly.
Old Madam Su was also a figure when she was young. Seeing this, she smiled at Shi Li even more kindly.
"Miss Shi, if you don't mind, you can come and talk to an old woman like me at any time."
Shi Li smiled awkwardly and nodded helplessly.
It’s not that she was unwilling to talk to Old Madam Su, but the smile on Old Madam Su’s face was too much like that of a neighbor aunt she used to know.
The neighbor aunt is a very nice person and she just likes to act as a matchmaker for people.
No matter whether it was neighbors or other acquaintances, they would try to introduce people to potential partners whenever they got the chance, which at one point frightened all the single neighbors.
Shi Li felt a little chilly when she thought of this. Seeing that Old Madam Su was still holding on to her, she had no choice but to say, "I'll go to your house tomorrow to talk to you!"
Then he waited for Madam Su to let go and immediately left the scene as quickly as possible.
Old Madam Su was not in a hurry to return to the sedan chair. She looked at Shi Li's back with a smile.
When she was out of sight, he looked at his youngest son and said meaningfully, "Bo Qian already has two children. You are not young anymore. It's time for you to find a marriage."
Su Zhongyao was brave on the battlefield, but he still felt embarrassed when he heard his mother say this.
After hesitating for a while, he whispered, "I'll leave everything to my mother."
This is what consent means.
Madam Su nodded with a smile.
It was rare that her two sons were clear-headed. The girls they liked all met his tastes, and they did not have any unpleasantness over the issue of marriage.
[Anchor, Madam Su seems to have taken a liking to you~]
[You don’t want you to be your daughter-in-law, do you? ? ? ]
[Su Zhongyao is actually not bad, the anchor can consider him. And I remember that Su Zhongyao lived a long life, unlike someone~]
Of course, the commentators were sensitive to what Mrs. Su meant, and they all started to make fun of her.
Seeing the comments about "longevity", Shi Li's eyelids twitched slightly, and then she frowned.
"Don't talk nonsense about longevity or short life!"
At this moment, she was not thinking of Su Zhongyao, but another person who did not live long in historical records.
