Chapter 61: The Price
The door of the hall was closed, and he couldn't see the situation in the hall, Xiao Mo stuck in front of the door and listened, only to hear Ling Hao's voice from inside. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Your Majesty may wish to think about it, and the minister will retire."
The door suddenly opened, Ling Hao appeared in front of him, Xiao Mo was startled, stood up straight and looked up at him.
Every time I see it, it's like this, and my face is like frost that doesn't change for thousands of years.
The distance was too close to raise his hand, Xiao Mo took two steps back before saluting: "See the prince." ”
"Hmm."
Ling Hao answered lightly, looked at Xiao Mo, and moved away.
Xiao Mo looked back at the upright figure who was leaving, and at first he thought that he had heard it wrong, when would King Jing take care of people.
"What are you looking at?"
Hearing Ling Tianxu's slightly angry voice, Xiao Mo turned his head and looked at Ling Tianxu, who had a gloomy face in the hall.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Mo walked into the hall and asked, "King Jing has agreed to withdraw his troops, are you still not happy?" ”
Ling Tianxu sneered: "Happy, how happy, Ling Hao is going to negotiate conditions with me!" ”
"Condition, what condition?"
"I want him to withdraw his army, and he wants to ......" Ling Tianxu paused, looking out of the hall, his face becoming more and more gloomy.
"What does he want?"
"He wants you."
"Me?" Xiao Mo was shocked.
"He will take you as an apprentice, and let you follow him." The anger in Ling Tianxu's words did not abate.
"Take me as an apprentice, what can King Jing teach me?" Xiao Mo hooked the corners of his lips.
The last time King Jing's Mansion recruited guests, those children of the scholar clan were all squeezed out, and now King Jing spent such a big price just to accept Xiao Mo as an apprentice, and he was afraid that he would be flattered by others, but Xiao Mo was worried.
Most of the high-ranking and powerful people who accept disciples or apprentices are to expand the power of the court, and she is a woman, she can neither fight on the battlefield, nor can she enter the court as an official, and even being a guard by Ling Tianxu's side is precarious, what is the use of accepting her as an apprentice?
"Don't say it, he doesn't think about it!" Ling Tianxu said angrily.
Although Ling Tianxu was unmoved, Xiao Mo had been pondering for a few days......
Whether King Jing's transaction is worth it or not is King Jing's business, and Xiao Mo is thinking about what she should do, Ling Tianxu's decisive refusal is not a rational move, she has to think about it carefully.
If she promised King Jing, Yan Guo would withdraw its troops, and Xunzhou Mansion would be saved.
If she promised King Jing, she would leave Ling Tianxu, and over time, everything would fade away, and when she left Yan Kingdom, he would not be sad.
If she agrees to King Jing, those rumors of broken sleeves will be self-defeating.
If she agreed to King Jing, she might be able to let Ling Tianxu know herself and her enemy.
Thinking about it, it seems that Xiao Mo can't afford to hesitate......
The news spread quickly, and without waiting for Xiao Mo to reply, Jiang Li took advantage of Ling Tianxu's absence to find Xiao Mo in private.
As soon as Jiang Li saw Xiao Mo, he arched his hand and said, "Lord Xiao, it was the old man who offended him last time, and I hope that Lord Xiao will forgive the old man a lot." ”
Xiao Mo was in a fog: "Lord Jiang, this is ......"
Jiang Li looked distressed: "The old man and Lord Xiao are both loyal to Your Majesty, and they really shouldn't be in the same room." ”
Xiao Mo smiled and said: "Lord Jiang is serious, as long as Lord Jiang is dedicated to His Majesty, Xiao Mo will not regard Lord Jiang as an enemy." ”
"Compared with Lord Xiao, the old man is ashamed, the old man will say it bluntly if he has something to say, King Jing's withdrawal must be clear to Lord Xiao, I don't know what Lord Xiao is going to do?"
Sure enough, for the sake of withdrawing the army, Xiao Mo asked, "What does Lord Jiang want Xiao Mo to do?" ”
"Lord Xiao is a smart person, he must know what the old man thinks."
Jiang Li wanted her to go to King Jing's Mansion as an eyeliner last time, but now not only does she have another opportunity, but she can also let King Jing withdraw his troops, in Jiang Li's opinion, the opportunity cannot be missed.
"Lord Jiang understands what Xiao Mo means, it's just that His Majesty is there......"
Xiao Mo agreed to King Jing for her, and Ling Tianxu said that there would be no harm in it, but it could be replaced by Ling Tianxu, and letting Xiao Mo leave was the key point, he was afraid that he would not hesitate to give up all his interests, but also keep her.
Jiang Li hurriedly said: "The old man doesn't believe those rumors, but the old man can see that Your Majesty and Lord Xiao are like brothers, as long as Lord Xiao insists, Your Majesty will agree." ”
In the past few days, no matter whether Jiang Li or King Wen tried to persuade each other, Ling Tianxu couldn't listen to a word.
Can't wait any longer, if it goes on like this, the rumors will only get more and more ugly, if it is rumored that His Majesty will not only favor the male pet, but even abandon the people in order to keep the male pet by his side, it will be very unfavorable to Ling Tianxu.
Xiao Mo sat alone in the room for a long time, and she could no longer hesitate in this matter.
"Xiao Mo." Outside the door was Ling Tianxu's voice.
It's just right, if there is something to say, it's time to say it.
Xiao Mo got up and walked over, opened the door, looked at Ling Tianxu standing in front of the door, and asked softly, "Have you thought about it?" ”
Ling Tianxu nodded and walked into the side hall: "I think very clearly, this matter can only be done to break Ling Hao's wishful thinking." ”
He wouldn't agree in the end, Xiao Mo muttered in his heart, since this was the case, he didn't want to listen to his strategy, and said bluntly: "I think about it, just according to what King Jing said, I will worship him as a teacher, and he will withdraw the army." ”
"No way!"
"I am a native of Qi State, sooner or later I will go back to Qi State, I will not stay here for a long time, I will go to King Jing's side, maybe I can help His Majesty recover the imperial power faster, and then I will be able to return to Qi State."
Ling Tianxu frowned deeply: "Why do you want to go back to Qi Country, isn't it good to stay in Yan Country?" ”
"Is this reason enough to avenge the Qu family?"
Ling Tianxu immediately said: "Stay in Yan Kingdom, the revenge of the Qu family, I will help you avenge it." ”
The hatred of the family, how can you fake the hands of others, Xiao Mo hooked the corners of his lips: "I am a native of Qi State, what are you doing in Yan Kingdom, you help me avenge me, do you want me to be a guard for you for a lifetime, and a woman dressing as a man for a lifetime?" ”
"No, you can restore your daughter's body now, stay in the palace, stay by my side, this is also the countermeasure I want to tell you."
"Let me be a palace maid for you? It's better to be a guard. Xiao Mo said lightly.
"Besides the palace maid, there is something else to stay."
"The women in the palace, except for the three thousand palace maids, are seventy-two concubines, do you want me to be your seventy-third concubine?" Xiao Mo raised his lips and sneered.
"How's the Queen?"
Xiao Mo turned his eyes to look at Ling Tianxu, who looked serious, and was slightly stunned, and his slightly chilling smile did not decrease: "Isn't the queen also one of the seventy-three concubines?" It's just the one who stands tall, and what difference does it make. ”
"How can they compare ...... you?"
"That's it! No kidding. Xiao Mo said lightly.
"No matter what, I won't promise Ling Hao."
Xiao Mo glanced at Ling Tianxu: "I can't help you not agree, King Jing wants to accept me as an apprentice, not you." ”
"I know you're for me, but I don't care about the war anymore, Ling Hao can fight as much as he wants, I just want you."
Xiao Mo looked directly into his eyes, his expression was solemn, and said: "You are the monarch of Yan Kingdom, how can you ignore your people for the sake of these children, Ling Tianxu, since you know that I am for you, you should be a good emperor, and don't let down all the people who have high hopes for you." ”
"Do you have to go?"
"I have to go!"
