Chapter 404: What kind of people does he have available?
He Tian finally recovered, his nose was red and looked a little funny. Coupled with the hard work in recent days, he looked...really a little miserable.
"Senior Brother..." He Tian was about to burst into tears. His life was really miserable recently. He couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep well.
Chu Chenfeng rarely showed him a relatively gentle expression, "Are you back?"
Seeing that he was exhausted, she said, "Go wash up and change your clothes first, then come over for dinner. I'll have someone prepare something you like."
He Tian snorted twice, "You have a conscience."
Ye Feng looked at his impetuous back, shook his head and smiled, "Xiaotian has suffered a lot recently. He escorted me to the border, went to pick up Qi'er, and within two days of coming back, you arranged for him to go out to get information. He looks much thinner."
Ye Mingqi spoke at the right time, "Dad, don't go to Erbao's place. Your son will have a chance to talk to him."
Ye Feng frowned, "I want to know now."
Ye Mingqi was helpless. His father became more childish as he got older. "You'll scare the child if you go like this."
Ye Feng glared, "Am I that scary?"
"I didn't mean you looked scary."
Xuanming watched the father and son argue, and for the first time, he intervened, "Let me talk to Erbao first. After all, I am quite familiar with him."
Ye Mingqi slapped his forehead and said, "Indeed, Doctor Xuan might be more suitable than us."
Ye Feng didn't like them beating around the bush, but he also knew that this was more appropriate. "Okay, then I'll trouble Doctor Xuan."
He Tian quickly packed up and came to Chu Chenfeng's tent, where the delicious meal was already prepared.
Chu Chenfeng was already sitting at the head of the table and had poured wine for He Tian. There were only two of his fellow disciples in the tent.
He Tian laughed so hard that his teeth showed, "Brother really understands me. We have wine and meat."
Seeing that he had changed his clothes and everything but hadn't shaved yet, Chu Chenfeng frowned, "You've already cleaned up, but you didn't even shave."
"Oh, I'm hungry."
Seeing him wolfing down his food, she said, "Eat slowly."
He Tian took another sip of wine and said incoherently, "I can't slow down. Do you know how long it has been since I had a decent meal?"
Chu Chenfeng was not in a hurry and poured him some wine.
He Tian ate heartily and quickly cleared everything on the table. Then he touched his stomach with satisfaction, looking very satisfied.
"Oh, it feels so good to be full and satisfied." Then he leaned back in his chair lazily.
Chu Chenfeng knocked on the table and gave him a look.
He Tian raised his eyebrows and pretended to be stupid, "What?"
Chu Chenfeng didn't say anything either, just looked at him steadily.
He Tian felt his entire body crawling when he was stared at. He pouted and took something out of his arms and put it on the table, muttering, "This is so boring. Senior Brother, you don't have any sense of humor. Sister-in-law Xiaojiu will dislike you."
Chu Chenfeng didn't even glance at him and directly opened the package. Inside was a long brocade box. When he opened it, he saw a stamped truce agreement inside, promising to live in peace with Daqing within ten years.
Chu Chenfeng sneered, "You have made a very careful calculation."
"Who said it wasn't true? The little Emperor Simon is so young and has been suppressed by Duanmu Qing. I thought he was useless, but I didn't expect it. Haha. And the Queen Mother, it's not the rumored relationship between the Queen Mother and Duanmu Qing... hehehe."
He Tian smiled in a lewd manner, and the look in his eyes... seemed a little shifty in Chu Chenfeng's opinion.
"How many people born in the royal family are really simple? As for the Queen Mother, if she has a bit of brains, she will know who she should really rely on."
He Tian clicked his tongue twice, feeling that this royal family was really chaotic.
"But Simon has been defeated by you all these years. How can he be qualified to sign a truce agreement? He should write a letter of surrender. If it weren't for your instructions, I wouldn't have helped Emperor Simon bring this thing here. You don't know how cowardly the little emperor is. No matter what he does, someone is watching him. However, he is not completely useless, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to meet with me to discuss and make this deal."
"In war, the people always suffer. I never want to fight. A truce, no matter how many years, is worth it in my opinion. And in the current situation, Emperor Simon has seen that I will not stop him. After all, Northern Qi is now... also eyeing us covetously."
He Tian frowned, "Are we still afraid of Bei Qi? Damn it, I'll kill that sick guy and see if he can still cause any trouble. I never thought that the coward known to all countries would be so vicious."
Chu Chenfeng glanced at him and said, "I am not afraid of Northern Qi for my reckless behavior. It's just that in my current position, I have to consider the people more than myself."
He Tian curled his lips. Tired, really tired. This regent king, not everyone can be one.
"Brother, how long will you continue to be the regent?"
He Tian was unhappy. Although the position of the regent was second only to the emperor and everyone envied him, it was too restrictive. Unlike him, he could do whatever he wanted in the martial arts world. If anyone dared to bully him, he would just fight back. If he was so unlucky that he couldn't fight back, then... he could go back and practice martial arts, or find his senior brothers and master. He could always get his revenge.
Unlike his senior brother, who has to think twice before doing anything, if it were him, he would be exhausted.
Chu Chenfeng was stunned, his eyes became a little unfocused, as if thinking, "Xiaojie has to grow up and be able to stand on his own."
"That will take a long time."
He Tian felt a little disappointed and felt sorry for his senior brother.
Chu Chenfeng glanced at him, coughed lightly and continued to ask, "What else does he want?"
"Who? Oh, Emperor Simon," He Tian stretched lazily and put on a cold smile, "I only have one request, which is to let Duanmu Qing and his son die here and never have the chance to return to Simon."
Chu Chenfeng didn't seem surprised at all. "Haha, after being suppressed for so many years, they must want to get rid of them as soon as possible. What about the army?"
"I don't know about that. The emperor didn't tell me the details. He just said he would make arrangements."
Chu Chenfeng was a little surprised. "What kind of useful people does he have?"
Chu Chenfeng's fingers tapped the table unconsciously, making a crisp sound.
He Tian knew that his senior brother was thinking, so he didn't bother him. He picked up the jug of wine and smelled it. Seeing that Chu Chenfeng didn't pay attention to him, he took the jug and started drinking.
Ah! Drinking is more enjoyable when you drink in big gulps. He looked at the small wine glass with disdain. That kind of thing is not suitable for him at all.
