Chapter 217: A Token of Betrothed
Little Princess Xiangxiang felt that in front of this little-known girl of the same age as her, her prestige was simply a failure.
Finally, she stared at Gu Zhirong hatefully and said, "You really want to do this?"
Gu Zhirong said lightly: "This prosperous river, there are more than 100 boats coming and going, and now for your sister and brother, too many people have died, and even the river water is dyed red, no matter how big this river is, I am afraid that it will not be able to carry so much resentment, and this resentful spirit is only afraid that it will wander on this river night and night, and ask the two of you to pay for your lives." I don't want them to die in vain, I don't want them to die blindly, for the sake of their innocent lives, you should always give them an account, right?"
The little princess Xiangxiang looked at Gu Zhirong in surprise.
In the eyes of this little princess of Ye Qin, the life and death of these civilians are not worth mentioning at all. When she was a child, her father taught him that the people were like ants, and they were humble. Now, she heard that someone was asking for justice for these pariahs, which was really unexpected.
However, for the sake of the untouchables who died on this river, she was asked not to invade the Jokhang for ten years, and she felt that this transaction was extremely unfair: are the lives of those untouchables really that valuable?
Gu Zhirong saw that her eyes were still arrogant, so he decided to pour cold water on her: "Okay, take a step back, are you really sure that Ye Qin will defeat me Dazhao?"
"Of course. The little princess Xiangxiang said proudly, "You Dazhao, you are just strong outside, and you will be defeated with one blow, where can you compare to my Ye Qin ......"
Before she finished speaking, Gu Zhirong intercepted her words: "Then." What do you think of the battle of water bandits in Jiangzhou?"
Jiangzhou bombarded the "water bandits", just a few dozen merchant ships. Tens of thousands of water bandits were beaten to pieces, Gu Zhirong didn't believe that this little princess of Yeqin hadn't heard of it.
The little princess Xiangxiang was speechless for a while. She came for a purpose, how could anything that happened in the Jokhang be hidden from her ears?
It's just that the Jiangzhou incident is too mysterious, how can such a fantastical thing happen?
So she sneered, "You don't have to scare me with that thing. I've been scared since I was a kid. The Jiangzhou incident, I think it's too exaggerated, how can there be such a brave fleet in the world. And it's an ordinary merchant ship, but it's not a warship, isn't it a joke?"
After saying that, she really thought it was funny. Laugh non-stop.
Next. After Gu Zhirong said a word quietly, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Gu Zhirong said: "That thing is true, those ordinary merchant ships are under the jurisdiction of Jiangnan Caoyun, and I am the person of Jiangnan Caoyun." ”
The little princess Xiangxiang was stunned for a long time, and couldn't help but say: "You are the person from Jiangnan Caoyun, and you are in charge of those merchant ships? So, you know." Rumor has it that the merchant ships were loaded with powerful guns and that no one could stop them. Is this true?"
Gu Zhirong didn't hide it, and nodded: "It's true, and those cannons were designed and installed by me." ”
The little princess Xiangxiang looked at Gu Zhirong in amazement, although there was nothing scary about the little girl of her age in front of her, she was still frightened and took a step back.
"You designed it?" she said with disbelief.
Gu Zhirong said lightly: "If the little princess Xiangxiang doesn't believe it, I can draw a drawing for the little princess to see." If you compare it and see that it doesn't match, won't it be clear?"
Hearing Gu Zhirong say this, the little princess Xiangxiang no longer had any reason not to believe it.
Gu Zhirong continued the topic: "If Little Princess Xiangxiang is confident that she can destroy my fleet equipped with artillery, she might as well attack Dazhao now." I can tell you very clearly that we will equip all armies with this weapon and use it to welcome you at any time. ”
The little princess Xiangxiang glared at Gu Zhirong for a long time, and suddenly deflated. She had to admit that if what Gu Zhirong said was true, then with the current Ye Qin, there was really no way to develop a way to crack this kind of extremely powerful artillery.
She also knew that if she rushed to send troops without researching a way to crack it, she would definitely suffer heavy casualties, and she couldn't afford such consequences.
Looking back, thinking about the conditions offered by Gu Zhirong, it doesn't seem to be too harsh, it's just that you can't invade Dazhao for ten years. If he was caught by the gang outside, he might have to force himself to sell Ye Qin. It doesn't matter if he dies, but his brother definitely can't have an accident.
She finally gritted her teeth and reluctantly agreed: "Okay, I promise you." ”
Gu Zhirong didn't stop there, but stretched out his hand to the little princess Xiangxiang: "Bring it!"
"What?" the little princess Xiangxiang was inexplicable.
"By faith. Gu Zhirong glanced at the little princess Xiangxiang strangely, "You don't think that I really believe that your empty words are unfounded, right?"
Little Princess Xiangxiang glared at Gu Zhirong angrily, she felt that she was really unlucky today, and she actually met someone who was even more cunning than her.
She endured her anger and said sullenly, "Then what do you want to rely on?"
"The Prince's Chapter. Gu Zhirong said quickly.
The little princess Xiangxiang's eyes couldn't help but widen again, and the little prince immediately protested: "If you don't want my seal, I won't give it to you." ”
Gu Zhirong ignored the little prince's protests, and only looked at the little princess Xiangxiang with his eyes.
The little princess Xiangxiang shouted, "Take it out!"
The little prince seemed to have never seen his sister so fierce to himself, after all, he was a child, and immediately burst into tears, as if he wanted to cry, but he tried his best to endure it, and took out the seal with a flat mouth.
Little Princess Xiangxiang glanced at the seal, and then handed it to Gu Zhirong's hand: "This seal is kept by you, and I will send someone to pick it up after ten years." Don't worry, gentleman Yinuo, I swear in the name of Ye Qin, if I break the oath, I will let Ye Qin's national fortunes decay and the people's livelihood will be ruined!"
Taking an oath in the name of a country is the most poisonous oath, Gu Zhirong nodded and said, "Okay, I wrote down what you said today, and I will wait for you to take it in ten years." After saying that, carefully put away the seal.
Now that the deal was completed, Gu Zhirong also abided by what he had just said and took them to the escape boat.
Along the way, the three of them walked briskly in silence. Gu Zhirong grew up at the mouth of the Yangtze River in his previous life, and was very familiar with the structure of the ship, and after a while, he found the old man in the bilge.
She walked up to the old man and said, "Uncle, I'll bring you two people, and you can take them all away." ”
The old man seemed to have been waiting there for a long time: "There are exactly two more places in this boat, you two can get on board." ”
The little princess Xiangxiang took her younger brother Yiyan to board the boat. Gu Zhirong said to her: "Don't worry, it's safe to leave here, and someone will escort you to the capital soon." In this way, you will be able to find your mission. ”
Little Princess Xiangxiang glared at Gu Zhirong hatefully: "We will meet again." ”
Gu Zhirong smiled indifferently: "Okay, I'll wait." ”
She turned to leave, but the little princess Xiangxiang suddenly stopped her: "The Qionghua hairpin in your hair is so beautiful." The girl is from Yuedi, right, the girl must have a sweetheart, right? ”
Gu Zhirong was stunned for a moment, the engagement token? (to be continued......)
