Chapter 301： ceded the city

Chapter 301 Ceded the city

When Si Zhong went to pick up Yu Wenlie from outside the city, he always felt uneasy. He knew that the Queen Mother was eager to take power, but he couldn't understand her behavior more and more.

Not to mention raising a group of chaotic parties to build momentum, it also involved Dongyuan Kingdom.

In the early years, he had dealt with people from Dongyuan Kingdom, and he had a very bad impression of them. They were all sinister, cunning, and calculating people.

So, Si Zhong didn't really believe that the people of Dongyuan Kingdom would reach a mutually beneficial agreement with the queen mother, and even less believed that the Yuwen family would send a county head to marry him.

But now it's out of control. At the critical moment, the arrow is on the string and has to be fired.

Si Zhong was driving the horse, looking at the group of Yuwen family members not far away, with a solemn expression on his face, he had a bad premonition in his heart, but he was helpless, let alone retreat.

Yu Wenlie watched a group of people approaching, fixed his eyes on the outstanding Si Zhong, and raised his voice.

"I think this is Mr. Si. I heard that Mr. Si has accomplished a lot at such a young age. Today, seeing him is really extraordinary."

Si Zhong was almost immune to such compliments, and didn't react much, only saluted respectfully.

"General Yuwen."

Seeing that he didn't like this, Yu Wenlie pulled the girl beside him forward and introduced him to Si Zhong.

"This is the little girl Yu Wenyue."

Yu Wenyue was originally wearing a veil, but when she walked up to Si Zhong, she took off the veil, revealing a stunning face with a soft and pleasant voice.

"Master Si."

Whoever heard that voice would feel their whole bones crumble.

Yu Wenyue's appearance is completely different from Li Qingyan's, which belongs to the rich and gaudy style, especially those big round eyes, which seem to be able to see people into their hearts.

But Si Zhong is not an ordinary person, his eyes skipped over Yu Wenyue's face, and then turned back to Yu Wenlie.

"General, let's go."

After Yu Wenyue saw Si Zhong's reaction, the smile on the corner of her mouth slowly disappeared. She had never seen anyone who ignored her so much.

But she didn't let herself lose her composure. After putting on the veil, she still maintained a calm posture.

Si Zhong brought Yuwen and his daughter to his mansion, planning to send them to the palace at night. After he left, his face suddenly became gloomy.

He sent someone to watch the two of them, then turned and entered the palace.

Si Zhong met the Queen Mother, the first thing he said was.

"Empress Dowager, I feel that the people of Dongyuan Kingdom are unreliable."

The queen mother was drinking tea, but she didn't react at all. After a while, she raised her eyelids, glanced at Si Chong and said.

"How to say?"

Si Zhong met Yu Wenlie for the first time and didn't know them well. Of course he couldn't provide evidence for a while. He spoke firmly and gave the most unconvincing answer.

"Intuitively, when I went to pick up Yu Wenlie today, I can see at a glance that he is ambitious, and he is definitely not someone who is willing to embrace others. He agreed to send troops, perhaps for other purposes, please be aware of the empress dowager."

Hearing what he said, the Queen Mother didn't seem surprised at all.

She put down the teacup and said leisurely.

"Of course the Ai family knows about his ambitions. The Ai family has already promised him that Liangzhou will be given to him when the matter is fulfilled."

Si Zhong never expected that the Queen Mother would actually cede the city, so he frowned unconsciously, and knelt down on the ground with a "plop".

"Grandma, Queen Mother, absolutely not, this is tantamount to luring wolves into the house. How can such a person be satisfied with only one city, and once there will be a second time, and Liangzhou is the key to my Dazou border..."

Si Zhong hadn't finished speaking when he was interrupted sharply by the Queen Mother.

"enough!"
