Jiang Huailu kept exclaiming. Xie Qingxuan saw the excitement and didn't mind it. She stretched out her hand towards Jiang Huailu: "I won, come on, come on, bring me the bet."
Jiang Huailu reluctantly took off the jade ring on his thumb and put it in Xie Qingxuan's hand.
Xie Ren walked over stupidly and asked, "What are you betting on?"
Xie Qingxuan put away the jade ring, turned around and said to Xie Ren with a smile: "I bet our brother Ren can bring people out."
"That's natural. You don't even know who I am." Xie Ren said proudly.
Xie Qingxuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "When big brother comes later, you just answer this." It has nothing to do with her anyway.
Xie Ren finally came to his senses and shouted: "Xie Qingxuan, you betrayed me again! People have already seen through me, and I was about to send him over. You are two-faced!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Qingxuan and Jiang Huailv turned to look at Qiao Yin, their movements were uniform and in perfect agreement.
Anyone else would have felt embarrassed to be stared at like this, or chatted away as if no one was around, but Qiao Yin wouldn't.
She is a person who has been laughed at by the whole city for almost four years, and she has developed a thick skin.
She waved and said hello in a fashionable manner, "Hi~"
Then he pointed at the jade finger in Xie Qingxuan's hand and said with a smile: "Do I get half of this gambling money?"
Xie Qingxuan's eyes lit up, this little sister-in-law is very interesting!
Xie Qingxuan stepped forward, took Qiao Yin's arm, and asked, "Did you recognize Xie Ren? How did you recognize him?"
Her voice was sweet and her smile was charming, making Qiao Yin want to reach out and pinch her little face.
"Can I say that when he opens his mouth, I know he is not?"
"Haha, you are worthy of being the woman who makes the iron tree blossom. She is extraordinary and extraordinary."
Xie Qingxuan laughed loudly and stretched out her hand towards Jiang Huailu.
"Quick, quick, bring it."
Jiang Huailu pulled off the jade pendant from his waist again and threw it to Xie Qingxuan. He turned and scolded Xie Ren: "Thank you, Xie Ren, Xie Ren, you caused my prince to bleed, you have to pay for it, prince!"
Xie Ren shouted in protest: "What does it have to do with me?"
Xie Qingxuan handed the jade pendant to Qiao Yin, "I made two bets with the prince. I bet on whether Xie Ren can bring you out, and on whether you can see through his true face. The winner is yours."
Qiao Yin did not refuse, took the jade pendant, and blessed Jiang Huailu, "Then I will thank His Highness the Crown Prince for the reward first."
"It should be considered as a meeting gift for you."
Jiang Huailu was very easy to talk to and didn't put himself on the prince's arrogance. It was true that birds of a feather flock together.
The people around Xie Yuan are just as easy to get along with as he is.
Seeing that they were all chatting, Xie Ren beside him became anxious and pulled Qiao Yin to leave.
He drove the carriage quickly, and it was still too late to send the people to the general's mansion.
"Let's go, Miss Qiao, I'll take you to see my elder brother."
Qiao Yin brushed his hand away, opened her eyes and said innocently: "Why are we leaving? I won't leave."
Xie Ren was dumbfounded: ...
"You're not looking for my elder brother anymore?"
Qiao Yin didn't want to leave. She was worried that she couldn't find anyone to ask about Xie Yuan's past. How could she miss such a good opportunity.
"Didn't Sister Qingxuan say that General Xie will come over later?"
Xie Qingxuan looked at Xie Ren's stiff expression and laughed out loud, "Look at his face, it's obvious that he is scared. Xie Ren, you must be scared."
"Am I afraid? What am I afraid of? He also pretended to be me."
Xie Ren frowned and said harshly, but his hands quickly took off the indigo robe outside.
Qiao Yin was very surprised, "Xie Yuan pretended to be you?"
Xie Ren immediately puffed up his chest like a big rooster, "No, five years ago, Xie Yu'an pretended to be me and joined the army."
Qiao Yin was surprised again: "Pretend to be you and join the army? Didn't you say that he was caught by lot to join the army?"
Seeing that Qiao Yin was very interested, Xie Qingxuan pulled her to sit down on the stone bench in the pavilion and said slowly:
"Those are all rumors from outside. My eldest brother is the eldest son of the family and was designated as the heir of the family at the age of fifteen. He shoulders important responsibilities. The elders of the family have strict requirements on him and never allow him to participate in any dangerous affairs. Xi Jinping Wu is also for self-defense, how could he be allowed to join the army?"
Jiang Huailu continued: "Five years ago, the Western Rong invaded Lintai County in the Western Frontier and burned, killed and looted in the Western Frontier, causing the people in the Western Frontier to live in dire straits. The generals in the DPRK were stationed in the northern and southern borders and were unable to provide support. Seeing that the DPRK was in danger, Ah Yu couldn’t sit still..."
Xie Ren took over the topic enthusiastically: "I was the one who was covering that time. My eldest brother asked me to pretend that he was squatting at home. Ouch, I almost suffocated to death that time. I had to read and write articles, and read so many account books. I had to follow the stewards of the tribe to hold conferences and small meetings. There were so many things to do, and I was really exhausted. As a result, I was exposed within two days. Several old ladies in the tribe were so angry that their beards were twisted. Just thinking about it. It’s funny, hahahahahaha——”
"But fortunately, my elder brother was not in danger. He came back safely a year later and made great achievements. Otherwise..." Tsk tsk, Xie Ren didn't dare to think about it.
Qiao Yin listened carefully. So Xie Yuan was still so rebellious? She thought he was naturally so stable.
Speaking of which, they seem to be quite destined.
She was in Lintai County when she first came here, and the gangsters who captured her took advantage of the war to rob her.
"What is the name of the army that General Xie surrendered to? The Xuanjia Army?"
"Yes, it's the Xuanjia Army. Four years ago, Ah Yu led the Xuanjia Army directly into the hinterland of Xirong and took back Lintai County."
It really is?
It was the Xuanjia Army that wiped out the bandits in the first place.
If the system hadn't asked her to rush to the capital to attack Lu Jinzhi, she might have known Xie Yuan four years ago.
"I'm coming."
Xie Ren suddenly shouted in a panic, jumping up and down to find a hiding place, but the pavilion only had such a small area, and there was nothing blocking it. The scene inside could be clearly seen from the outside at a glance.
Qiao Yin looked up and saw Xie Yu'an, dressed in white, walking towards the pavilion with no expression on his face and looking straight at the pavilion on the way they had just come. He was so far away that he could feel his evil aura.
Xie Qingxuan encouraged: "If you don't want to be caught by big brother, you can only jump into the water and swim to the other side."
Jiang Huailu didn't know what his motives were, so he said, "I'll cover you, jump quickly."
After hearing this, Xie Ren really raised his feet and was about to jump into the lake, but Qiao Yin quickly stopped him.
"There's no need to be so panicked, right?"
Not to mention how wide and deep the lake is, how cold it is in late autumn.
"Isn't it okay if I go and lure him away?"
Qiao Yin's words were no less than what a death row prisoner would say when he was about to be guillotined, and suddenly someone ran out and shouted, "Leave someone under the knife——"
Xie Ren clasped his fists at her, almost crying with gratitude.
"Sister-in-law! My brother will be completely dependent on you from now on."
