"You may not believe it, but I was still very panicked when I received this letter." Qi Dan pushed the letter handed to him by the third brother along the table in front of He Nan. He was not He was lying. The moment he opened the letter, he suddenly felt that He Nan had fallen into the hands of the third brother.
"It seems that you are under a lot of mental pressure during this period!" He Nan showed a slightly mocking look. He knew that Qi Dan was always very calm. This misjudgment was undoubtedly due to the pressure Qi Jun gave him. It was too much, or he lacked confidence now. "It's easy to have random thoughts at critical moments. Is this a problem you brought from your mother's womb? Or is this your way of relieving stress?"
Qi Dan rarely refuted He Nan's words. It seemed that the difficulties he faced could not be solved by attacking each other personally: "I just... don't know which way is the most appropriate solution."
"So you can hesitate too..." He Nan sneered and said, "I thought you were very determined from the beginning!"
Qi Dan was still not angry, but he was still a little dissatisfied, and then asked: "Isn't it normal to hesitate on this kind of thing? Where do so many hard-hearted people come from in this world? After all, we are brothers..."
"Huh..." He Nan let out a long breath, relaxed his limbs and drooped naturally, resting his head on the back of the chair with his neck as the axis: "Well, let me ask you a question."
"How do you think your eldest brother and your second brother... will treat these 'brothers'?"
Jing He Nan asked, and the images of the eldest brother and the second brother emerged in Qi Dan's mind. After thinking for a while, Qi Dan's body became less tense: "If it's the eldest brother, as long as we don't have any conflicts, We should be in peace, but if the second brother... I'm afraid he will try different ways to find trouble with us every day, especially the eldest brother and the third brother."
Although neither He Nan nor Qi Dan mentioned the specific situation, they knew that they were talking about some very scary things, risking the disapproval of the world.
"Isn't that right?" Qi Dan realized that He Nan's expression meant, "So that's what you think, but it's a pity that it's completely wrong."
"Of course not. You seem to know too little about your brothers."
"Then what is right?" Qi Dan asked shamelessly. He would not ask He Nan angrily, "Do you, my brother, know more than me?" and such nonsense. He has no doubts about employing people and has no expectations for He Nan's character, but he has no hesitation about He Nan's ability. Since the other party said so, there must be a reason for him. Even if he is wrong, he might as well listen to it - just People who can tolerate their own opinions cannot be tolerated by the world.
"Since you asked the question sincerely, I will tell you with great mercy - the fact is exactly the opposite of what you imagined." He Nan jumped up from the back of the chair, like a slingshot being released: "I am definitely not as good as you I know a few of your brothers better, but I have definitely met as many people as you - you can regard the conclusion I will tell you next as a combination of talent and knowledge."
"You are right about one thing, Qi Ji... Our Crown Prince is a very humble and kind person - but that doesn't stop there. As a prince, he should be humble, kind, gentle, courteous and frugal."
Speaking of this, He Nan suddenly made a digression: "By the way, let me tell you - actually when I first met you, I originally thought you were the most qualified one... But now it seems that I am tooyoungtoosimple. Yes." He Nan thought for a long time but couldn't figure out how to express his feelings, so he used a newly learned foreign sentence as a substitute.
"So what do you want to express? Is this all his disguise?" Qi Dan didn't understand He Nan's meaning, but he understood the two foreign sentences - after connecting the third brother with the foreign chamber of commerce, Qi Dan Shan has also studied it privately, and maybe he will be able to use it one day.
"No, whether he is a humble gentleman or a cold-hearted person, that is the real him. The reason for this difference is just because he is in a different position - in other words, he is much more mature than you. I was prepared and aware very early on to inherit that position.”
"As for your second brother, what you said is absolutely right - if it were him, he would indeed find trouble with you from time to time, but that's it. He wouldn't be able to do anything more extreme. "
"Don't you think the second brother is as prepared or aware as you say?" Qi Dan asked.
"Yes... until now, no one with that level of consciousness can catch up with your elder brother." He Nan said decisively, and then felt a little sad: "Actually, I have always been quite complacent and thought that Master trusted me the most. I should be his disciple, after all, he left such a big thing in my hands, but after thinking about it carefully, I realized that what he taught me was completely different from what he taught me, my senior brother..."
"What's different?" Qi Dan narrowed his eyes like a fox.
"What I learned was about 'doing things' after all, while what he learned was about 'managing people'." He Nan's tone was somewhat bitter. "There are many, many people who do things beautifully, and even if they don't, they can be trained in batches after batches. However, not everyone is qualified to learn the method of controlling people convincingly."
Hearing He Nan's true feelings, Qi Dan couldn't help but reveal a wry smile. He Nan's last wry smile at the Jiang family dinner was completely consistent with his expression at this moment. He finally understood why He Nan chose to stand beside him. under the banner, even if only temporarily.
Prince Qi Ji is not only a nightmare for His Highness the Fifth Prince, but also for He Nan. Qi Dan has always felt like he was being pushed away by this little lunatic. He originally thought this was Li Mastiff Chun's foresight. , but only at this moment did he realize that He Nan's original intention was more intense.
So when he himself felt weak and even retreated, this "outsider" gritted his teeth and forced himself to move forward with him.

"Sir... it's because my subordinates are incompetent. They didn't see the opponent's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and actually used a large force to attract our attention..." Luo Xingzhou, who only led three or five people to escape hastily, arrived immediately. He pleads guilty in front of Jun - not to mention that he suffered a defeat, several musketeers, snipers, and even masters like Suhara Ga were included in it, and the crime should be death.
But Qi Jun still didn't get angry. He chewed slowly and ate up all the food in front of him, and then said: "You can't be entirely blamed for this. After all, even I didn't expect them to play such a trick... But You have lost so many soldiers and generals, even if you don't give it to me, you still have to give everyone an explanation."
Qi Jun is not a person who likes to get angry, especially on things like this, but this does not mean that he can treat the defeat as if it did not happen.
"This subordinate is willing to die..." Luo Xingzhou said with a heartbeat.
However, Qi Jun did not let him finish, and interrupted rudely: "Hey... there is no need to die. Now that the enemy is facing us, Andre can no longer be saved. If you die again, you will lose more." , there is no benefit other than venting your emotions - even if you want to die, you have to win this battle for me before you die."
"I'll give you a chance to atone for your sins - next, what do you think we should do?" Qi Jun wiped his mouth with silk, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Dozens of killers were sent, but only one-tenth came back... Was Luo Xingzhou's escape due to his great ability, or was it due to some other reason? Qi Jun certainly didn't want Luo Xingzhou to be released after being instigated to rebel, so he wanted to test his current position based on the suggestions given by Luo Xingzhou.
"Now that we have lost the opportunity, the people of Shanhe Prefecture will definitely not give up. The villain is incompetent and only wants to come up with two strategies that are not brilliant - either you, my lord, withdraw from Linning County and cut off the threat of Shanhe Prefecture. If I get your clues, either... we will be the first to stabilize Lord Huangfu's position, hold this power of the world in our hands, and then cooperate with our army... to fight them to the death."
