Chapter 077: First Trust
"Jiang Yao?"
Chaoxi asked lightly, with two points of deep thought in his eyes.
Shang Jue sat opposite her, and nodded when he heard the words, "The eldest prince of the Qi Kingdom, it is estimated that he will be officially crowned as the prince when he goes back this time, and then Song Jieyu will marry him, and there is no doubt that he will be the future monarch of the Qi Kingdom." ”
Raising his eyebrows day and night, "I heard that this person has an excellent reputation and is very loved by the people of Qi State." ”
Shang Jue smiled, "So what?"
Saying that, he glanced at Chaoxi, "Qi and Shu are far apart, not to mention that Jiang Yao is not as easy to get along with as he seems on the surface, you better not fight his idea, not to mention that Qi is relying on the royal family, and we are not in the same way." ”
Chao Xi glanced at Shang Jue indifferently, "Isn't it better to get along with His Highness than His Highness?"
Shang Jue narrowed his eyes, "Jiang Yao is not as useful as you imagined." ”
Chaoxi snorted, "How does Your Highness know?"
Shang Jue turned his gaze and didn't look at the day, but his smile was a little light, "It's good to believe what you say, the Qi State is backed by the royal family, but it also has its own ambitions, even if it is a critical moment for the Song Kingdom, it will not be soft, let alone your Shu Kingdom." ”
Chaoxi continued to stare at Shang Jue, "What about His Highness?"
Shang Jue smiled lightly, "Lone promised you that he would do it, what are you still suspicious of?"
Chaoxi also squinted, "His Royal Highness said that the royal family will make moves after the New Year, but there is no clue yet." ”
Shang Jue smiled, "The royal family has already started to move, but you haven't paid attention." ”
Chaoxi was a little curious, Shang Jue said, "This time, the number of beauties and slaves is more than any previous time, the next step is to increase taxes, and then in the future, it must be to take back the fiefdom, the big marquis may be able to support it, but the small marquis must be difficult, while the royal family is still not suspicious, now is the best opportunity to win over these small marquis." ”
Chao Xi looked at Shang Jue fixedly, "Your Highness has already defended the country, so there is no other goal?"
Shang Jue smiled, "Why have you forgotten yourself, Shu is a great marquis." ”
Chaoxi smiled for a moment, got up and walked to the edge of the small bookshelf, and said while rummaging through the bookbooks on the shelf, "Your Highness has long said that Shu is the weakest of the Great Marquis Kingdom, how can you be satisfied with Your Highness's thoughts?"
Shang Jue looked at Chaoxi's back and was silent for a moment, "The Shu Kingdom has become stronger." ”
Chaoxi sneered, "Where did Your Highness's confidence come from?"
"Nature is from you. ”
Shang Jue answered fluently, stood up and walked behind her, and with a sweep of his eyes, he saw the book "Tao Strategy" in her hand, put the book down day and night, and took another essay, and then said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Your Highness." ”
Shang Jue smiled slightly, "Lone never looks away." ”
He turned around and looked at Shang Jue fixedly, Shang Jue's figure was clearly reflected in the dark iris, no one in this world would know her so well, and no one would ever believe in her so much!
The weird feeling of being in control is back!
It's not a bad experience to be believed......
Shang Jue couldn't help but smile when he saw that he looked at him for a long time, "What do you want to ask?"
With a certain look, he walked straight around him to the window and sat down in front of the couch, opened the book in his hand, "You won't say it if you ask." ”
Shang Jue was noncommittal, and was about to say something more, Shen'er's figure suddenly flashed at the door, and when he saw it, he immediately put down the book in his hand and walked out, Shang Jue stood in place and did not follow, only saw Shen'er whisper something to Chaoxi and retreated, Chaoxi stood in place for a moment before turning around and coming in, his face was slightly gloomy.
Shang Jue raised his eyebrows, "What happened?"
The corners of Chaoxi's lips were extremely tight, as if he didn't intend to say it.
Shang Jue took two steps forward and stood in front of her, brushed her shoulders and said, "Say it." ”
Raising his eyes to look at him day and night, his eyes were deep and gloomy.
Shang Jue also fixed his eyes on her, and his thin lips opened lightly for a moment, "Gu wants to know." ”
His voice was extremely soft, and the heat of lotus incense fell on her forehead, so close that every qiē on his face was clear, and that bottomless gaze could drown her in it, and if she continued to look like this, she would be swept into the invisible whirlpool, and he took a deep breath and asked him, "Someone wants Song Xieyi's life." ”
didn't explain the cause and effect, just said it dryly.
But this sentence alone was enough for Shang Jue's eyes to light up, he looked at Chaoxi with a smile, and shook his head firmly.
"If you have to, keep her. ”
Chaoxi raised her eyebrows, "What are you doing with her?"
Shang Jue smiled happily, a trace of cunning light flashed in his eyes, and his handsome face was instantly vivid because of that brilliance, as if a god from above him had stepped down from above the nine folds, he said, "We don't need to waste energy on irrelevant people, Song Jieyi is a trouble, but it is not our own trouble, why should we solve the trouble for others?"
Chaoxi frowned instantly, "What else do you know?"
Shang Jue sighed, his tone innocent, "It's nothing more than some secrets of the Song royal family." ”
Chaoxi pursed her lips and turned away, "But Song Xie Yi didn't speak well before the mansion gate that day, and you also said that I should stay away from her, in that case, why don't you take advantage of the situation to cut her off here?"
Shang Jue stepped forward, raised his hand and landed on her shoulder, and pinched it gently, "She will die, but not now." ”
Chaoxi's back stiffened, but Shang Jue's hand was taken away, he walked to the couch first to pour tea, and continued, "Lonely is just built on you, and how you do it in the end depends on yourself, of course, you can leave her alone." ”
Chaoxi's brows were furrowed extremely tightly, and he looked at Shang Jue's silhouette and didn't speak for a while.
Xu is the first night Jiang Yao is too tired, and no one came to ask for a banquet when night fell, so Shang Jue and Chaoxi were naturally happy and quiet, just stayed in the snow courtyard and didn't go anywhere, day and night under Shang Jue's urging to apply his eyes, Shang Jue read the writing room or received some letters and newspapers on the side, thinking that he would be able to spend the night peacefully, but he didn't want the Wei Shi brothers and sisters to visit in the evening.
Wei Guo and Yan Guo have a close relationship, and it is natural to move around from time to time.
Shang Jue still ordered Yun Zhe to invite people to the side hall and asked Chaoxi, "Do you want to go with Lone?"
Chaoxi shook his head, "They must have something important to do when they are looking for His Highness, so I won't bother." ”
Shang Jue looked at her gaze and had some clear insight, as if he understood that she didn't want to go at all and not something else, he nodded, "Although Gu won't hide it from you, it's okay if you don't want to go here to rest." ”
said and added, "If you go alone, you will return, you are waiting for you here." ”
Chaoxi nodded, only to think that what he said was a little weird.
When Shang Jue walked out of the inner room, the soft color on his face faded, and when he went out to the side hall, he immediately saw Wei Shi and Wei Yuan standing in the room, and immediately saluted when he saw him coming, Wei Shi glanced behind him, "Your Highness, where is the princess?"
Shang Jue smiled and shook his head, "She's rested." ”
Shang Jue sat down on the main seat and glanced at the two of them, "What is the matter with coming to find Lone?"
Wei Shi glanced at Wei Yuan and opened his mouth first, "Your Highness, do you know that the Grand Prince of Qi has arrived today?"
Shang Jue nodded, and Wei Shi said with some hesitation, "My brother and I also heard that Sister Song Xie Yu came to see you early this morning? They must not have come just to thank you, I don't know what Song Guo plans to do this time?"
Shang Jue smiled, "Song Guo wanted to marry Yan Guo, and Gu agreed." ”
Wei Shi and Wei Yuan glanced at each other, Wei Shi's expression was a little complicated, and Shang Jue was faint, as if he hadn't seen anything.
Wei Yuan pondered for a moment, "I don't know what kind of marriage method His Highness is?"
Shang Jue glanced at Wei Yuan appreciatively, and then asked, "If you were lonely, what would you do?"
Wei Yuan pondered for a while, and then said cautiously, "Song and Qi are close, Song Jieyu is already a sure future queen, this time and Yan Guo must not have much sincerity, if Song Nu came to Yan Guo, but in the Yan Palace, it is better to let Yan Nu marry into Song Guo, of course, this is under the premise that Yan Guo does not intend to focus on fighting for Song Guo, if Yan Guo values Song Guo, he will be treated as a harem." ”
Shang Jue's expression remained faint when he listened, and the Wei Shi brothers and sisters only felt that they had no bottom in their hearts.
After Wei Yuan finished speaking, Shang Jue looked at him and smiled, "Wei Yuan, you are really right......
Wei Yuan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still puzzled when he looked at Shang Jue's gaze.
Shang Jue didn't say whether he valued the Song Kingdom or not, not to mention that the Yan Kingdom had no princess......
"The Yan Kingdom selects the daughter of the clan to marry into the Song Kingdom. ”
Shang Jue settled down at a glance, and Wei Yuan and Wei Shi both took a reassuring pill.
Shang Jue looked at the two of them, "I know what you are worried about, Wei Guo and Yan Guo have been good for a hundred years, and they will not change when they come to Gu here, but Wei Gong is getting older and older, and even Gu is very worried about the frequent turmoil in Wei Yuan, the only way is to let Wei Yuan do his best to set the position of the prince to avoid more disputes, and the country is stable, so that Gu Fang can rest assured." ”
Wei Yuan and Wei Shi listened to this, it was not as simple as eating a reassuring pill, Wei Gong indulged in pleasure, the harem was three thousand, and there were countless children under his knees, although Wei Guo was small, but the disputes of the royal family did not have to be less elsewhere, the two of them were not descendants, if it were not for Shang Jue's help, the possibility of Wei Yuan becoming the prince was almost zero, but Shang Jue never said the same, today he has these words, it is undoubtedly necessary to personally push Wei Yuan to the throne, Wei Yuan and Wei Shi are grateful!
Wei Shi's eyes were slightly red, and he choked up for a while, "Your Highness......"
Shang Jue's face was pale, "Not only Wei Yuan has to be decided, but Wei Shi also has to be decided, Wei Yuan is weak and weak, and he will not be stable after becoming the son of the world, if your own sister can be in a high position in other countries, Wei Guo will be more jealous in China." ”
Wei Shi's eyes lit up, her cheeks flushed, she was a woman, didn't it mean to be in a high position in another country......
Shang Jue's mind is exquisite, he can naturally understand Wei Shi's exposed thoughts at the moment, but he just said without moving, "The third prince of Wu Guo is coming the day after tomorrow, this person is young and heroic, and he is a strong competitor for the prince of Wu Guo." ”
The blood on Wei Shi's face faded in an instant, and Shang Jue looked at it impartially, where was there still a hint of compassion in a pair of warm and smiling eyes, "Wei Shi, I want you to become the third prince of Wu Guo's wife, you can't fail." ”
Wei Shi's face was as white as a ghost, her eyes were still red, there was disbelief and despair and pain in her eyes, but all her feelings became insignificant after looking at Shang Jue without any feelings, the pink fist in her sleeve slowly clenched, Wei Shi suddenly lowered her eyes, and said in a dumb voice after a while, "Okay, Wei Shi will not disappoint His Highness." ”
Sending away the Wei Shi brothers and sisters, Shang Jue returned to the inner room with a calm face, and he subconsciously looked at the low couch by the window.
Shang Jue frowned, where did the people go?!
