Chapter 154: How can they be a good match? Don't talk nonsense
General Shen did not wake up until the evening of the next day. After listening to Deputy General Xue and Xue Zhong about his poisoning, he became very accommodating. When the military doctor came, he explained some things. General Shen wrote them down one by one and then he was as good as ever.
He did not think that he was dying, nor did he take the poisoning lightly. On the contrary, he had experienced the toxicity of Gulan many years ago, but he was over fifty years old and had seen everything. The Hu people wanted to threaten him with the antidote.
At first, let them withdraw their troops and give them the antidote for a month. Then let them pretend to be defeated and give them the antidote for another month. It’s so much effort. It’s better to let them take effect of the poison directly in the third month. This way, at least it will be worthy of the soldiers on the border, the people of Da Qi, and the country.
Deputy General Xue sighed repeatedly: "Brother, you are too careless. How could you let them succeed?"
"Isn't it the same whether you die early or late? I have done a lot in my life and made great contributions. Old Xue, you know I don't want my reputation to be ruined by my foolish old age. You should remember what the last person who was hit by Gulan did."
Deputy General Xue also remembered that he was young at that time and almost hated that man to death. How many soldiers were sacrificed in order for him to save his own life!
"But, but!"
"No buts. Let's go and meet my son and the crown prince. I heard that they have made great contributions and killed the Hu general together. I must write a letter to the emperor to reassure him."
How could Deputy General Xue not know that this was finding joy in misery? Although a city had been recaptured, Gulan had already been planted. He vaguely realized that if he wanted to truly defeat the Hu people, it would be impossible in a short period of time.
"It's not a big deal..." Our current situation is not worthy of seeking praise.
"How is it not a big deal? I told the emperor about our last victory, and he asked about the prince. He seemed to blame him for not going to the battlefield. This time the prince is really going to fight the enemy, and I think the emperor is happy to hear such news."
The two men walked to the prince's tent, and the soldiers at the door were stopped just as they were about to speak.
Xue Zhong at the back waved his hand, motioning him to go eat, and followed the two generals in front of him in.
The two were originally talking and laughing, but they fell silent once they entered.
"What's wrong?" Xue Zhong didn't understand. He squeezed forward and found that Gu Changfeng and Shen Mingjue were sleeping obediently on the same bed. There was a basin of water and a towel next to Shen Mingjue. It seemed that they slept together after washing their faces.
If these two people were not still wearing clothes, Xue Zhong would not know how to explain it.
Although General Shen was broad-minded, he also remembered how his eldest son felt when he said that he liked men.
Could it be that the younger son is also gay?
Lieutenant General Xue naturally knew that there would be gay men in the military camp, but the prince and the major general were both wearing good clothes, and there was nothing particularly strange about them, so they shouldn't be that kind of relationship, right?
"Look how well-matched these two children are! Hahahaha..."
Deputy General Xue laughed awkwardly twice and patted Xue Zhong on the back.
Xue Zhong was pushed forward and said, "The prince and my brother have a really good relationship. They even sleep together."
But General Shen still had a stern face.
"How are they a good match? How can two men be a good match?" he shouted with a gloomy face.
Deputy General Xue immediately thought of a phrase: "They train together and fight together on the battlefield. How can they not be a good match?"
Perhaps because he emphasized the word "brother", General Shen's expression improved a little, "Don't talk nonsense."
"Since they haven't woken up yet, let them wake up and see me." General Shen felt chest tightness when he got angry. He didn't stay any longer and turned and left.
Xue Zhong considerately covered them with a blanket and was then called away by his father.
"Are the Crown Prince and the Major General really in that kind of relationship?" Lieutenant General Xue was still skeptical.
Xue Zhong naturally knew what to say and what not to say. The only thing here was that the prince was of noble status, so he could not talk too much about it: "No, the prince has no interest in my brother."
"No intention? That's Juer..." Deputy General Xue widened his eyes and stamped his feet twice, "How foolish! His brother's matter is just before his eyes, and his father is poisoned. I think his elder brother is just muddling along. How can he sleep with the prince!"
Xue Zhong: "No, father, my brother has no intention of getting entangled with the prince. Even though he admires the prince, he also knows that there is no possibility for the two of them to be together, so..."
Deputy General Xue sighed, "That's good. I was saying that he was really so confused. Don't tell anyone else about this... Does the prince know what Juer is thinking?"
Xue Zhong knew that if he told a lie, he would have to use countless lies to cover it up, so he quickly tried to cover it up: "I don't know about this, but father, this is General Shen's family affair after all, we should not get involved. I think General Shen seems to be extremely disgusted with two men being together."
"Yes, when Mingyuan's incident came out... I really didn't expect him to be so cruel! If he didn't find the antidote, he would be a man with not much time left. If his last words were to ask Juer not to get entangled with the prince, Juer would surely suffer for the rest of his life. It is too painful to ask for something in your whole life but not get it."
Xue Zhong felt that this dull topic was too depressing, so he found a new topic: "Dad, haven't you never been married? How do you know so much?"
"You kid!" Deputy General Xue laughed, "Although I have never been in love, I have seen other people's love and advised many people. How can I not understand! It is because I understand that I don't harm others..."
Xue Zhong suddenly smiled and said, "This is what you mean, military advisors don't go to the battlefield, right?"
Deputy General Xue was stunned for a moment, "Really! How did you come up with such an appropriate word in your little head? Hahahaha, the military advisor won't go to the battlefield, what a good military advisor who won't go to the battlefield! Hahahaha..."
