After the Disabled God of War Beca My Concubine Chapter 23.2

"So, you always go out for fun every month, and you always go out on the street to buy paper and pens, but I never let you report it?"

Xu Du smiled and nodded: "Your Lordship is indeed wise."

Jiang Suizhou quietly read the account book, while Xu Du waited on the side without rushing him. After a long ti, Jiang Suizhou put down the account book. He took out the money he had prepared and gave it to Xu Du according to the amount in the account book.

This was to tell Xu Du through his actions that he trusted him.

Xu Du smiled and reached his hand out, taking the silver bills.

"You have done extrely well," Jiang Suizhou comnded. "There are still many places where you can be used in the future."

Xu Du smiled lightly. "Master, just give the order."

After a mont, Jiang Suizhou looked up at him: "But, have you ever thought about the future?"

Xu Du did not say a word and tilted his head, indicating him to continue.

Jiang Suizhou spoke unhurriedly.

“Rise and fall is a natural law,” he began, “If a dynasty’s days are numbered, and another rising sun gradually ascends, how can you obtain the fa and fortune you want?"

When Xu Du heard this, he did not say anything for a long ti.

After a spell, he laughed, clear and crisp.

"Everyone is convinced that the division of the two dynasties into the north and the south of the river is a foregone conclusion and will last for hundreds of years —— Under these circumstances, even if Northern Liang still has Huo Wujiu, it will not change. Why do you think that the Southern Jing’s days are numbered?"

Jiang Suizhou asked, "Why was Huo Wujiu captured?"

Xu Du replied, "He faced the enemy alone, and his reinforcents were cut off."

Jiang Suizhou continued, "Then, what about the Southern Jing's court now?"

Xu Du faltered and then laughed, "Master is saying that Huo's defeat is because his horse tripped, and Jing's defeat is because its foundation is rotten?"

Jiang Suizhou’s silence was his tacit approval.

Xu Du was rendered speechless for a while. Then he stood up and gave a deep salute to Jiang Suizhou. “In this dire straits, I originally didn't have much hope, but I’d like to wait and see. Every step is a last resort,” he said. “But now, it is my good fortune to have t a wise master. I'm sure my Lord already has plans for what the future holds. I will follow your orders and be your right arm."

Jiang Suizhou paused and was montarily tongue-tied. Xu Du had spoken to him and was willing to believe in him, which was naturally good. But the hat that Xu Du put on him was too high, which made him vacillate for a while.

What about the future? What were his plans?

He just knew that in the near future, they would be wiped out by Huo Wujiu in one go.

Silence reigned in Anyin Hall.

Dinner ti had passed, but their Master had not returned.

ng Qianshan was so anxious that he paced around, and at every turn, he sneaked a glance at Huo Wujiu.

ng Qianshan saw Huo Wujiu sitting at the table quietly reading a book. He didn’t know if it was his illusion, but he felt that even after half an hour, Madam Huo still hadn't turned a page of the book in his hand.

ng Qianshan sent soone to ask.

A few monts later, a young servant sprinted back all the way into the main house and ran to ng Qianshan, panting.

“Eunuch Qianshan, His Highness has gone to Madam Xu's room," he reported, "A maid in Madam Xu's courtyard just ca to report, saying that His Highness hadn't left instructions in advance. As soon as he returned to the house, he headed straight there."

Aigoo! How can this be!

This servant reported in the room while Madam Huo was sitting nearby, hearing everything clearly. Now, even if ng Qianshan wanted to contrive a lie to coax Madam Huo, it was impossible.

ng Qianshan waved his hand quickly and drove the servant out.

When the servant retreated, ng Qianshan mustered up a flattering smile on his face. He went to Huo Wujiu's side and told the maid beside him: "Why are you so thoughtless? The dishes are all cool, so why don't you go heat them up..." He swallowed the rest of the words in his belly.

Madam Huo, who was sitting there, put down his book without looking up. He picked up his chopsticks and used them to take food from the cold dishes.

He ate the al alone.

ng Qianshan felt an indescribable feeling for a mont.

...It wasn’t just the roomful of servants who were waiting for His Highness’s return for the al. Madam Huo, who usually ignored His Highness, was actually also waiting to eat with him.

Moreover, Madam Huo was obviously...totally unhappy at the mont.

If so, ng Qianshan knew that only the mischief maker could undo his mischief. Madam Huo's spirit was a little low at the mont, and this was sothing that servants like them couldn’t handle. They could only wait for His Highness’s return from the dinner, and then personally coax this ancestor.

With this in mind, ng Qianshan warily served Huo Wujiu until he finished his al. He, however, never imagined that after dinner, His Highness still didn’t return.

Until a long ti later...a maid from Madam Xu's place arrived.

"Eunuch Qianshan, His Highness will rest at Madam Xu's place today,” said the maid.
