Chapter 2164 Pray

   I received news about Xie Zhao from the servant next to me.

  He silently read the content on the paper in his hand, rubbed his fingers lightly, and slowly shook the paper into pieces with his internal force.

  It shows that Xie Zhao has been locked up in a secret room by Hu Hua recently and has been subjected to inhuman torture. The reason is that Xie Zhao failed to contact Chu Heng and even humiliated him in front of Chu Heng.

  The person Hu Hua used to threaten Xie Zhao was his own sister.

It’s just that his own sister, when Xie Zhao was ten years old, got separated from him on the grassland. Xie Zhao was rescued by a passing caravan, and after being brought back to Dachu, she was sold as a slave by mistake. .

   Later, because of his good force, he was sent to Hu Hua's mansion, and has since become a knife in Hu Hua's hand.

  So...the one who can control Xie Zhao is his sister...Xie Lin.

  Chu Heng thought of something, took out a pen and ink from the carriage, wrote a letter, quickly sent it to the dark guard, and arranged for someone to send it away.

  Here, he hesitated, and stopped the carriage outside the pastry shop.

   Went in and bought some candied haws, ready to go back and change the taste for Ah Yu.

   After waiting for a while, I saw Xie Zhao coming in.

  Perhaps because Xie Zhao has been ordered by Hu Hua to get close to Chu Heng, and he often meets Chu Heng in the pastry shop. When the timing is right, the two always meet at various "coincidental" times.

   It's just that the two of them basically never greeted each other in the past.

  But today was an exception, Xie Zhao suddenly walked towards Chu Heng.

   "Lord Chu." Xie Zhao had more wounds on his face than before. When he reached out to stop Chu Heng, he accidentally exposed his wrist, and a few welt marks were faintly visible.

  Chu Heng's eyes darkened, and he asked, "What's the matter? What's the matter?"

   "I heard that the cavalry battalion can be selected in the military camp." Xie Zhao pursed his lips and gritted his teeth.

   "Well, there is such a thing." Chu Heng said with a chuckle: "Master Xie is interested?"

  He deliberately used such a grown-up title, which seemed a bit ironic given the corresponding identities of the two.

  But Xie Zhao didn't have any shame on his face, only numbness remained, as if he was deaf to his words, but fell into his own emotions: "Well, I'm interested."

   "If you are interested, you can participate in the assessment. As long as you win the first place in the competition, you can enter the cavalry battalion." Chu Heng looked at the sky with a businesslike look, and a flash of unhappiness flashed in his eyes, and he raised his foot to leave.

   Xie Zhao was stunned for a moment, and hurried to catch up: "Master Chu, I...I think you recommended me to participate, but I am not qualified to participate."

  He looked at Chu Heng prayingly, with forbearance in his eyes.

  Chu Heng heard this, and said with a smile: "Why are you not qualified? Besides, even if you are not qualified, you should go to Mr. Hu for help. I am an outsider, how can I help you?"

  When he spoke, he not only watched Xie Zhao's expression change, but also noticed the man not far away from the corner of his eye. He seemed to be busy with his own affairs, but he was actually a man with eyeliner.

"I... I have a problem with my household registration, and I was disqualified from registration, but I am really not afraid of death or difficulties. I want to go to the battlefield." Xie Zhao clenched his teeth, trembling slightly: "And... and Mr. Hu You won't be happy for me to leave, I know Master Chu you love talents, that's why I came here to recommend myself."

"Oh? Really?" Chu Heng didn't smile, but replied meaningfully, "Then you submit the evidence of your identity to me, and come here tomorrow afternoon, whether you can pass it depends on your own ability gone."
