Chapter 533

Bai Zhi's eyes lit up, yes, why didn't she expect that they also heard about King Xiao in the teahouse before, and maybe they could also hear about the frontier battlefield in the teahouse.

The three hurried to the teahouse. The weather was cold, and the business in the teahouse was getting better and better, and the seats were almost full.

The guy had to arrange them on a large table and share the table with the other two.

The two were men in their early 40s, and they looked very friendly. Seeing that their faces were blushing from the cold, the man didn't come to serve tea, so he hurriedly gave them two bowls of his hot tea.

Bai Zhi repeatedly thanked her. At this time, the gentleman on the stage was talking about anecdotes, and no one was talking about the war on the border. She was a little disappointed, but she was not reconciled, so she chatted with the two men at the same table.

"Are the two uncles locals?" Their clothes were different from those in Qingyuan Town, and their accents were also somewhat different.

The man with a mustache said: "We are from Kyoto. We come here to deliver goods and leave tomorrow. To be honest, this place is much colder than Kyoto, and I can't sleep at night when it is cold."

Bai Zhi smiled and nodded: "Don't say that you come from Kyoto and feel cold, even our locals feel cold, so don't all go to the teahouse to warm up."

There are many people in the teahouse, the ventilation windows are sealed with quilts, and there is a small stove for warming tea on each table, the temperature is naturally much warmer than the outside.

The man smiled and said, "Who said no!"

Bai Zhi asked again: "Aren't you afraid that you have come so far from Kyoto?"

The man laughed: "What are we two big men afraid of?"

"There's a war going on in the northwest, and it's not too far from the border. I heard that many merchants are reluctant to come here to deliver goods, for fear that in the event of war, money and goods will be empty."

The man in the sapphire blue jacket took over the conversation and said, "It seems that you don't know yet."

Bai Zhi hurriedly asked: "What do you know?"

The two men looked at each other and smiled, and then said: "The King of Jin is back, our Chu God of War, the Lord of War, is back, and now he has regained control of the army in the northwest, even defeating the enemy army in the west night, and the good news is sent to the palace as soon as possible. People in Kyoto have already spread the word."

She grabbed the hem of the clothes tightly, and the little heart in her chest was beating wildly, "So you have won the battle? Has the war in the northwest stopped?"

The man immediately waved his hand: "Although we have won several victories in succession, the war has not stopped. Xiye violated my heart and will not die, and we continue to send reinforcements to support us. This battle, and some are fighting."

Su'e asked anxiously, "Then, how long will the fight take?"

The man looked at Su'e a little strangely. This woman's expression was so abnormal, as if the war had a lot to do with her. As a common person, it's enough to live a good life, so what are you doing? Still a womanizer.

Although he was puzzled, he still told the truth: "No one knows how long it will take to fight. I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Jin and the army of Xiye Kingdom had been entangled for two years, and the Xiye Kingdom that he had just forced was completely defeated, but who knows, It didn't stop for a few years, and it was attacked again, trying to seize the great mountains and rivers of our Great Chu Kingdom, which is rich and fertile."

Bai Zhi held Su'e's hand under the table, motioning her to calm down, not to let anyone see anything wrong.

Su'e took a deep breath, suppressed the panic and anxiety in her heart, and pretended to be calm to drink the tea on the table, but her pale face and slightly trembling hands all betrayed her heart.
