Chapter 18 Agreed
"Yes, little maid understands. Childe, the little maid has decided, Childe please feel free to do what you want to do, the little maid will stay here, until the son is called, and the little maid can go at any time. Li Xinzhu said.
"Okay, then this second thing is so agreed. Sheng Shen said very dryly.
"Wait a minute, little maid, little maid has one more thing to say. Li Xinzhu's voice suddenly sounded again, listening to the voice, it seemed to be full of courage.
"You say. Sheng Gray's voice was soft.
Li Xinzhu suddenly turned around, kowtowed heavily at Sheng Shen, and said: "Childe, the little maid knows that you were forced to make today's agreement because of the promise of the day, but the son doesn't have to suffer this grievance, the son only needs to promise the little maid, and if there is a chance in the future, it will be the greatest blessing for the little maid to help the little maid rescue her parents and settle down." The little maid is not important, today the little maid is willing to stay here, and accept all the punishments as a spy of the Northern Yan Kingdom, and ask the son to take back the agreement. ”
Qiu Shu's face changed slightly, is this soul pattern contract really so domineering, it can make the contractee die to such an extent?
"Okay, you don't have to say it, I remember reading a sentence once, a gentleman is a promise, there is a thousand gold prices, there are ten thousand pounds. Naturally, I will do my best to do what I promised you, and the reason why I have agreed to these promises today is not just because you are alone. On the way back to Beijing, Qiushu took care of me, and in Laiyang City, Senior Lu also had a life-saving grace for me, these things, as long as they don't violate the principles in my heart, even if I suffer some grievances, what's the big deal. Arise, and stay here as my messenger. ”
Sheng Shen's tone was very resolute, and there was no room for turning around.
"Yes, Childe. Li Xinzhu bowed two more times, and this time stood up directly, walked behind Sheng Gray, and remained still.
"Qiushu, the third thing, you can say. Sheng Shen said.
Qiu Shu was taken aback, just now, her feeling for Sheng Shen had risen to a new level again.
Although her perception has risen, it is undeniable that Sheng Gray's words are another surprise for her.
Sheng Gray's words just now seemed to be just casually said, but in fact, it not only made Li Xinzhu more loyal, but also skillfully appeased her side, he seemed to point out lightly that he was a person who valued promise and righteousness, but in fact, he was also telling her that he would definitely do the agreement between them, and he also attached great importance to the friendship and relationship between the two parties along the way, which was invisibly, in fact, it greatly alleviated the tension between the two parties just now.
If this is deliberately done by Sheng Gray, it will be fine, but if this is Sheng Gray's actions and words that go with his heart, then this just shows that he is not only such a person, but also that when he grows up in the future, even if he can't become his own subordinate, he will be an excellent ally.
Allies?
Looking at the gray that although he was sitting on a chair, he didn't feel as big as a chair, and Qiu Shu suddenly felt a strange feeling constantly hit his heart.
"As for this third thing, this palace hasn't thought about it yet, so I'll let you know after this palace thinks about it. Although there were some twists and turns, seeing that the agreement on the previous two things had basically been decided, Qiu Shu was actually slightly relieved in his heart and said.
"No need, just let me help you say it, this third thing, do you want me to promise you to enter that palace and for that concubine after eight years?"
Sheng Gray's tone was like ice, so he had no scruples, as if he was stabbing straight to the point, and completely exposed the matter.
Lu Zhifang's expression moved slightly, and Qiu Shu couldn't hide her shock, she didn't expect that Sheng Gray's way of doing things was so direct and straightforward.
She was not the slightest surprise that Sheng Shen knew the third thing, after all, she said it herself that day, and what really shocked her was that Sheng Shen said it so unabashedly.
Is this what he is going to do, to refuse mercilessly?
I'm afraid that in this matter, there is no negotiation, and it is completely out of his control.
"Yes, how, no, what?" Qiu Shu looked at Sheng Shen's eyes without hesitation, and said word by word.
Lu Zhifang's eyelids suddenly lifted, and he glanced at the roof as if he didn't have anything, and then his face was as usual.
"If not, then tell the third thing, cover it up, it's too unpleasant. If so, I'll give you the answer in eight years' time. Sheng Shen said.
Qiu Shu was stunned, and even Lu Zhifang was moved.
Qiu Shu felt that today's performance of Sheng Shen was really unexpected everywhere, making her a little overwhelmed, for her, who has always been faintly called the next generation of "phoenix chicks", this feeling is too strange, including her future husband, Cao Yanbing, the fourth prince of the Great Wu Heavenly Dynasty, and no one has ever given her this feeling.
This feeling is extremely uncomfortable, like a fish in the throat, unable to swallow or spit out, which can make people suffocate their faces and be helpless.
With the conversation with Sheng Gray, Qiu Shu gradually realized that the attitude towards Sheng Gray was actually the one in the palace who had already expressed it through Lu Zhifang, which made Qiu Shu even more uncomfortable.
Take this last thing, what is it called, "I'll give you the answer in eight years"?
Shouldn't it be said by her own that something like this has great initiative, isn't she the only one who is qualified to say so, but Sheng Shen said it in front of her, and his tone was extremely firm, which couldn't help but make Qiu Shu a little suspicious, is this her Third Princess Mansion or Sheng Gray's territory?
Looking at Qiushu, whose eyes were slightly out of focus, Lu Zhifang shook his head slightly, and a trace of pity couldn't help but appear in his eyes, Xiaoshu was still young after all, and today he was still at an absolute disadvantage in the face of this seemingly ignorant young man in front of him, but in fact, his words were in order.
Although he saw this, Lu Zhifang was not ready to intervene, and he was not ready to say a word, a person's growth must experience a lot of setbacks, if he can't even rely on himself to pass such a small level in front of him, then how can the "Phoenix Chick" dispute in the future be passed, how can Qiushu pass, even if it is passed with the help of all parties, how can it lead the entire Qiushui Kingdom to another glory in the future?
Qiu Shu was only stunned for a moment, and then said: "This third thing, Bengong has already said it just now, Bengong hasn't thought about it yet, maybe it's what you just said, or maybe not, we'll know when the time comes." ”
"Hmph, when the time comes, when will you not say it for a hundred years, and you will drag me for a hundred years?" Sheng Gray's words were emotionless, like a cold stone opening his mouth.
"Naturally not, just ten years, ten years later, you will be seventeen or eighteen years old, and at that time, if this palace has not told you this third thing, then this third thing will be invalid. Qiu Shu said slowly.
"Ten years?"
"That's right, that is to say, even after eight years of Snow Deer Academy, it will be two years at most, and at that time, this palace will never do anything that is difficult for a strong man, and it is up to you to decide whether to stay or not. ”
When he said this, Qiu Shu's eyes lit up, as if it was not her who was hit by a series of accidents just now.
Lu Zhifang showed a slight smile, this is the Qiu Shu he knew, how could a little setback before make her lose confidence, but she was here, she had made it clear that she wanted to compete for the position of "phoenix chick", how could she be so fragile.
"No, eight years from now, it will be the birthday of your queen of heaven, and this date will only be set on the day after eight years, and if there is one more day, I will not admit it. Sheng Shen said suddenly.
"You ......"
Qiu Shu's face turned white to red, and then from red to white, and a bad breath blocked his heart, but he couldn't spit it out.
She originally agreed to Sheng Gray's request nine times out of ten, so that even if Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven didn't need Sheng Shen after eight years, she could still help him for two years, these two years were the two years when she was confident that she had just become a "phoenix chick", and with Sheng Gray's promise, it was naturally better than nothing.
But I didn't expect that Sheng Ash was bitten so hard, when did this dirt bun be so good at bargaining?
However, the most important thing is that if she retreats this step, then if there are similar negotiations with Sheng Ash in the future, will Sheng Shen always occupy the initiative, and she will have to retreat step by step.
No, this must not be left to happen.
At least, Sheng Shen is by no means an existence that can make her keep backing down.
Thinking of this, Qiu Shu was about to open her mouth to refuse and insist on her proposal, but her face suddenly changed, she paused for a moment, then took a long breath and said, "Okay, just according to what you say." ”
"Very well, in this way, then these three things will be determined by this, and if there is nothing else, I will rest first. Tomorrow morning, I will leave here, and if there is anything, let Li Xinzhu contact me. By the way, the bone identification ceremony, since you have decided on this matter, then the time will naturally be set by me, just put it in half a year, the day when you set off for Snow Deer Academy, this half a year, if there is nothing particularly important, don't bother me, I'm very busy. ”
Sheng Shen said, without waiting for Qiushu to reply, he stood up, saluted Lu Zhifang, and said: "Senior Lu, thank you again for saving your life, if you have a place to find me in the future, please let Li Xinzhu inform me." ”
Lu Zhifang returned the salute, smiled and nodded, his eyes unabashedly revealing full of appreciation.
Sheng Shen then bowed to Qiu Shu as well, but without saying anything, he turned around and entered the back hall.
