Chapter 863: Zhongtian Lobbying
Hearing that the county lord of her family had a different opinion on what she thought was extremely dangerous, the doubts on the face of the short and fat palace maid were even more depressed, "Even if we can convince the prince, we can't meet each other, how can we convince them!"
Qu Shu looked out the window at the night, "Don't worry, the path to a successful meeting will be found by those who are more eager to find out! β
"The deal between the prince and the Xinli Khan is not going to trap the county lord!"
"Anyway, it's something that will make him more cost-effective. Speaking of this, the solemnity on Qu Shu's face was replaced by a smile again, "Your worries are not unreasonable." If we can reach a consensus with the crown prince, it is also a consensus that we do not connect the previous and the next, and we will always be unable to get rid of the reality that you pit me, and I pit you. However, you see, in the heavens and on the earth, except for the prince who can be found, no one else is willing to come to trap us. They can only be our best candidates, and we can use them to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages. I know it's going to be hard, but I'm going to be more careful. It's going to get it done. β
After Qu Shu finished speaking, they could sit and wait for the prince to come to the door, and then lowered their heads to think about her new name! was a little skeptical of her lord's statement. Even in the midst of the confinement, the prince who is still powerful and powerful, what is there to discuss with them? This seems to be a good thing sent to the door, but how can it make her feel a little restless. When the night was completely soaked in the palace, and the short and fat palace maid felt that it was a good time for the prince to enter the palace, Qu Shu let her sleep well.
She pointed to Qu Shu, "Today is the kind of dark moon and high wind night that the orthodoxy says." β
Qu Shu slowly closed the scroll in his hand, "Don't worry, they will take the right path and come in the light when tomorrow dawns." β
"During the day, there are many palace guards, do the prince's people really dare to break in rashly?"
In this world, there is no impermeable wall, so how can there be a loophole that cannot be drilled?
The short and fat palace maid lay down in her clothes for the night, and the next day she suddenly woke up from her dream, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that the sky had already brightened, and nothing had happened last night. I thought to myself, everything, sure enough, was said by my own county lord! Last night was even quieter than usual. She put on her clothes and walked to the door of the courtyard to see that the morning breeze blowing in waves made her shiver several times in succession. The night watchman was still confused. Without waiting for the night watchman to open the door, she took the initiative to step forward and lock the door.
The sound alarmed the night watchman, and he opened his eyes in a daze, unable to believe what he saw, and hurried forward to help.
The short and fat palace maid was happy to help them, but she looked at them carefully, and did not say why, but repeatedly instructed them to look at the door carefully. In the middle of the day, the steward of the East Palace stepped on the warm autumn day, and slipped over silently, saying that he was asking for peace to the county lord.
When leading the steward of the East Palace into the house, the short and fat palace maid took a look at the sky, today's sun, it was extraordinarily warm, and the time that the county lord said that they would come to visit was also very good. The county lord ordered someone to pour tea, and the steward took a sip fiercely, and immediately said straight to the point, "The reason why the old slave came to see the county lord at the risk of indiscriminately breaking into the palace ban is because he understands that at this time, both His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the county lord of our family are all having the same worries. And the county lord doesn't mind the same as His Royal Highness of our family, and he takes the lives of some people in order to achieve his own goals, not to mention, those people are still the accomplices of the county lord's pain today. It was meant to be killed. β
"What shall I say when I hear the words of the stewards? The reason why the steward said this, maybe it was because he had a hangover and didn't wake up?" Qu Shu raised his smiling eyes, and a bright and clear luster overflowed from them.
"Actually, the old slave didn't plan to wake up the county lord who was pretending to be asleep, but the county lord can't fail, and he must be cruel, it's a fact. Even if the old slave bypasses many bends before he starts to say such things, the final landing point will return to the essence of the matter. That's the hatred of the county lord. The steward lowered his gaze.
"It's as if people other than you are looking at me with the opposite point of view. Qu Shu stretched out his fingers and gently touched the edge of the tea cup, slowly drawing circles one after another.
"This doesn't just mean that because of hatred, the county lord has less and less time to tell the truth. But even if the county lord can deceive those people, he can't deceive his own heart! one day he will not want to deceive his own heart, and those cruel methods will be shown to those who make you hate!" The steward raised his head slightly and lowered it again.
"If I was convinced so quickly, what would the steward really want to say!" Qu Shu's beautiful smile rippled on his lips.
"I thought that the old slave would be surprised when he came to the county lord, but it seems that the county lord did not react like that, which means that the county lord should have known most of the content of what the old slave was going to say. The steward said slowly. Qu Shu smiled silently, and secretly admired the prince's unique vision in his heart. What he thought was simply guessed by him.
The steward continued, "Actually, the arrival of Xinli Khan was originally an invitation from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of my family. But the real reason that can be said to move him is because of the existence of the county lord. β
"Have I already done a beauty plan for you before I agree to join you? And the method will always be so easy to catch. Qu Shu's gentle gaze didn't know when, it had merged into the sharpness of the blockbuster. That's the look she hasn't looked at in the outside world for more than ten years. Although still glamorous. However, the sudden sharpness of the pupils was like a powerful grip, which made the steward's mind that had been thinking about her thoughts break like a loud sound.
"That's exactly what the county lord said. If the county lord has clearly seen that this is a ploy, then the future of the entire empire is hidden inside. These were the words that the prince had given him. He kept in mind that he was going to say it at the end. Fortunately, he had been prepared for it, otherwise the glance he had just been looking at by the county lord would have confused all his thoughts. Only now did he really believe that the prince's statement that Qu Shu would be the best candidate! Because from this moment on, he could no longer directly believe that she was just a naΓ―ve little girl.
"You know? The last sentence is the most moving. In fact, in the past fifteen years, I have never bred a heart called greed, and just now, I have not been able to control the heart that harbors greed, and it has grown roots in an instant. Just because, it contains the strategy of the empire, no matter what, people can't help but salivate. Let me guess what the real content of the prince's plan that contains the empire is! It is because of my existence that Xinli Khan pleaded with the emperor to lift the ban on His Highness. Qu Shu's eyebrows were raised, and he looked at the steward who was more hesitant than her.
