Chapter 94: Conditions
After the piano case, Tao Wangqing stroked the piano and sat upright.
When he saw him come in, he hurriedly got up and wanted to salute.
Liu went and waved his hand, "Excuse me, what are you looking for this king?" ”
Tao Wangqing frowned slightly, and finally replied in a low voice: "Master, Qing'er really has a reluctant request. Qing'er ...... Mr. Zhang, how is his injury? Can Qing'er go to his house to find out? ”
"Oh, Zhang Tingwei?" Liu Qu slightly hooked the corners of his lips, "This king didn't know that Ah Tao also had a relationship with him?" Or is it that Right Fufeng has a good relationship with him, so you come to ask? ”
Tao Wangqing was stunned.
She promised Zhang Manqian to help, but the reason why she didn't directly say that she would spare Zhang Anshi was that she was afraid of arousing Liu Qu's suspicion and wondering why she knew about Zhang Anshi.
I don't want to, but I still make him suspicious.
Her identity, first of all, is the wife of the right Fufeng Ji Di who has not passed the door, and she naturally has a close relationship with the right Fufeng. Now Liu Qu actually suspected Ji Di of this matter...... Could it be that Liu Qu also discovered that this Zhang Anshi has a close relationship with Zhang Manqian, Ji Di and others, and suspects that he is a person from the Ji faction?
Zhang Manqian didn't tell her much, and didn't seem to want to get her involved. But just because Zhang Manqian is willing to beg her for Zhang Anshi's exit, the relationship between Zhang Anshi and Ji Di Zhang Manqian must not be simple. Although she admires Zhang Manqian and feels indebted, she will never do anything that harms Liu Qu's interests.
She gave a salute, "Taishi, Qing'er didn't ask for the right to help the wind, but because although Qing'er had only seen Zhang Anshi a few times, she felt that Master Zhang had a heroic temperament and an old-fashioned heart, which made Qing'er unconsciously think of Sister Gillian, and she just wanted to see him." If there is any inconvenience, please forget Qing'er's unreasonable request and let people take good care of Master Zhang. ”
Tao Wangqing's sentence "take good care" is very clever. She observed her words, and saw that Liu Qu's eyes dimmed slightly, and at the end, she said: "He is the king's courtier, as long as he is loyal to the king, the king will take care of it." Your words have been written down by this king, and you should not be sad about your sister's affairs, and this king will take care of you. ”
As he spoke, Liu went to help her up personally.
Tao Wangqing only felt the heat in his palm coming from his arm, and he couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Liu Qu left quickly.
Looking at Liu Qu's back, Tao Wangqing almost couldn't help but catch up, and asked him again: Why did you take me into the palace? Is it just because of Gillian?
But she couldn't ask.
She had an agreement with someone, and now that the time has not come, she can't do anything, she can't do it.
She slowly slid into her chair and clasped her hands tightly.
In any case, her heart is very firm, she can endure it, even if she endures it again and again, but she will definitely not let people eat her, no, never!
On the evening of the second day, on the outskirts of Chang'an, deep house.
In the room, Zhao Xing was in a hurry. What to do? What to do? Liu should be coming soon, right?
She told the strange stone that she agreed to Liu Qu's request.
There is no way, the defense of this mansion is too tight, and more than a dozen groups of guards outside the house have guarded the wall as impregnable, and the interior of the house is even more heavily arranged. For a whole day and a night, she had already observed her surroundings, not to mention strange rocks, she couldn't even beat the guards outside the door, let alone escape?
Therefore, I had to take a delay plan first, and when Liu came, it would be better to take one more step.
She smiled at the strange stone, "Stone, I'm bored, I want to go out and let off steam." ”
The strange stone pierced her intentions at a glance, and said: "Lord Zhang, this mansion is the property of the prince, located in a very remote place outside the city, and the picture is to stay away from the hustle and bustle and rest quietly." Don't say that there are a large number of guards from the master, even if there is not, it will take a whole day to walk back to your Tingwei Mansion with just a pair of feet. Besides, do you know the way? I advise you, don't try to 'break out of prison'. ”
"Hehe, hehe." When Zhao Xing heard this, she was completely dumbfounded.
The strange stone supported her and walked slowly around the courtyard.
Here seems to be chiseled and deep in the mountains, the surrounding peaks and peaks are stacked, the grass and trees are verdant, and a silver-glowing white waterfall is faintly visible not far away from the halfway up the mountain, and the water droplets burst out, splashing down in a pool of blue pools.
It's very pleasing to the eye.
In the near vicinity, there are all kinds of flowers and trees of unknown objects, which are bright and fragrant.
However, the more Zhao Xing looked at it, the more desperate he became, this place didn't seem to be populated for a few miles.
Then, she waited for half a night in anxiety, but as a result, Liu Qu still did not arrive.
Her wounds had not healed well, and she had never closed her eyes because she had been planning to escape for a day and night, and now she couldn't resist her sleepiness, and explained to the strange stone, "Your master has arrived, wake me up." Then he went back to the house and leaned back on the bed and fell asleep.
She tried her best to suppress her sleepiness, and only thought about how she was going to deal with Liu for a while. As a result, in a half-dream, half-awake, I felt as if my ankle was being held.
She was startled, suddenly sobered up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that it was a man in ink standing on the bed, with handsome eyebrows and eyes, and an indifferent expression, holding her feet with one hand and pressing her shoes with the other.
Seeing the man's face and what he was doing, she was even more surprised, her face was hot and shy. This person is a dignified master, how could he do such a thing?
For a while, his heart lost all the panic and apprehension he had before, and he only blurted out without a head or a brain, "You, you often do these things for your own women? ”
The man on this bed is undoubtedly Liu Qu.
"My woman?" Liu Qu looked at her lightly, but his voice was slightly low, "Of course not." ”
Zhao Xing was suffocated, and suddenly woke up, so remorseful that he only wanted to slap himself in a big mouth, dead Zhao Xing, what are you talking about?! It's really a pot that can't be opened!
She hurriedly shrunk her feet, "It's better not to bother the master, come by yourself, come by yourself." ”
"Don't move, do you really sleep like this? Not feeling uncomfortable? Liu Quzi is not easy to mess with, said in a deep voice, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes.
Zhao Xing was rational at this time, and he didn't dare to resist, for fear of angering him, so he had to stare at him fixedly.
Liu Qu quickly stripped off one of her shoes and slowly removed her socks.
When the warm, rough palm wrapped her two little soles, Zhao Xing's brain slammed, her blood boiled, she broke free, and retracted her feet into the brocade quilt.
"Tai, Taishi, the minister hasn't said whether he will agree to your request or not, what are you doing here......"
Liu went to look at her, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Oh, has this king done anything to you now?" This king is not a beast. He sneered slightly.
"Of course, of course, the beauties in the Taishi Palace are like clouds, what kind of woman has not been seen, and if you want a beast, you are also a minister." Zhao Xing immediately smiled and said flatteringly.
The corners of Liu Qu's mouth tensed, but he couldn't hold back in the end, and laughed.
Zhao Xing stabilized her heart a little, which was like a waterfall, and remembered the days five years ago, and unconsciously found that in fact, this Liu went to her ...... It's not bad either.
At that time, she wanted to eat wild meat, at first he only pretended to be deaf and dumb, and then after she went a few times, he walked for two or three hours every day, went to the deep forest to catch some rabbits and chickens, and came back, took care of them, and roasted them for her to eat; He was going to leave, but he stayed with her until the jade flute was made......
Now, if she begged him to let her go, maybe, perhaps, perhaps, could not turn around.
At this time, I saw Liu take a look at her, and sat down slowly at the head of the bed a little lazily, with an unfathomable look in his eyes, as if he was waiting to watch a good show and listen to what she had to say.
She gritted her teeth and said what she thought and said—
"Master, do you think this is good, you give me some time first, let me get to know you slowly, and then fall in love with you, so that we can ...... again After all, you also know that a twisted melon is not sweet, if ......"
"Come on," Zhao Xing was interrupted by him before he could finish his words, "This king has tasted too many melons that are not twisted in the palace, and now it is time to taste this twisted melon to change the taste." ”
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......" Zhao Xing choked, held her breath in her throat, and lowered her head and coughed violently.
"Well deserved."
The sarcastic words came from his ears, but he was caressed and patted by a hand behind his back.
Zhao Xing raised her head and stared at him, but she didn't know what to say, humiliated, aggrieved, angry, but she didn't dare to scold.
She gritted her teeth, her chest rose and fell slightly, and her eyes were red in such a hurry.
But he heard Liu on the side, and said softly: "That's it, I'll take a step back." It's okay if you want me to promise you, but you have to promise me one condition, plus the Bai Yinshuang case, you owe me a total of two conditions. Also, you said that you want to slowly understand and cultivate a relationship with me first. Then, my first condition is to cultivate a relationship with you, and you can't refuse; As for the second condition, I haven't thought about it now, so I'll tell you if I think about it. ”
Zhao Xing was stunned when she heard this, she was ready to break the net after she couldn't talk to Liu Xiang tonight, but she didn't expect him to agree so readily now.
She was overjoyed in her heart, she didn't think about it, and hurriedly nodded her head with joy, at least now she didn't want her to go to bed immediately, she felt that she had picked up a big bargain.
In fact, Zhao Xing knew that Liu Qu was used to retreating as advance, but now the authorities are fascinated and forget this.
Seeing that she promised happily, Liu Qu slowly wiped a smile from the end of his eyes.
The last time he made that request, it was for today's discussion. Just as a merchant sells goods, he deliberately raises the price he originally expected, and then lowers it slightly, and the buyer feels that he has won the bargain, so he happily closes the deal.
Of course, this trick may not be tried and tested repeatedly, but it is not bad to do it occasionally.
That's a good sign, isn't it? What he wants is what she is willing! Besides, he still has to find out the person and thing hiding behind her, and how to deal with her at that time is another matter.
As long as she doesn't betray him, then he will condemn her.
Zhao Xing's eyes lit up, "That means, if you are willing to let me go, I can go back to the Tingwei Mansion?" ”
"Well, it's just that you have to wait for the Imperial Doctor to confirm that your injuries are fine."
Zhao Xing's heart warmed, and she only felt that Liu Qu's voice had never been so good, and she said in her heart: Great, great! Her injuries will heal in another three or five days at most, and she finally doesn't have to be under house arrest!
She swallowed her saliva and looked at him solemnly: "Master Xie, Weichen obeys orders!" ”
As soon as he was kind to her, she was not polite.
Immediately, the quilt was pulled, his head was covered, and he went to sleep.
Closing her eyes, she felt that it was inappropriate, and still felt that there seemed to be a dark cloud above the head of the bed, she was surprised, lifted the quilt and got up, and saw that Liu Qu was still sitting at the head of the bed.
She suddenly felt bad, frowned and said, "Master, you...... Why aren't you leaving? Aren't you going to go to the early dynasty tomorrow? ”
Liu went to hook his lips and reached out to stroke her hair, "Don't worry, this is quite a long way from the palace, and this king is tired, so he will be settled here." ”
When Zhao Xing heard this, her heart tightened, and she broke out in a cold sweat, "Here? Where is it? ”
Liu raised his eyebrows and patted the bed under her.
Zhao Xing was shocked, his body trembled violently, he looked at him with wide eyes, and said angrily: "You, didn't you just promise me?" The gentleman and the gentleman are quick to say and whip the horse! ”
"Yes, this king promised you not to have fun with you first, but this king did not say that he would not sleep here. Besides, isn't sharing a bed also a way to strengthen relationships? Do you think, if it weren't for you, me, and **** staying together, how could you have today's feelings? ”
Zhao Xing was immediately dumbfounded.
She patted the bed board, glared at him angrily, and heard Liu go to look at her with a smile, and said, "By the way, Zhang Anshi, this king has thought of the second condition." ”
She said angrily: "If there is a fart, let it go." ”
"If this king proposes something to you, and you grant it, you cannot repent."
Zhao Xing glanced at him, "Don't do it." ”
"If you agree to me, I'll leave this bed." Liu went to hang his head next to her face, and his breath sprayed gently onto her face.
Zhao Xing's face was hot.
If he could sleep in a different bed, wouldn't it be better than sleeping in the same bed, even if he was still in this room? How do you sleep in the same bed? She will not be able to sleep.
Although she knew that this person was full of bad water and must not be at ease, she still bowed her head and said, "Good! ”
Liu Qu smiled with his eyebrows, "Very good." ”
How much can five years change a person? But Zhao Xing thought: This person is really different from five years ago.
Five years ago he was a cold, hard and arrogant stone, and five years later, he has worn away all the edges and corners and become gentle, but it is precisely this softness that is the most terrifying.
She retreated to the innermost part of the bed with the quilt in her arms, staring at the man vigilantly, but saw him pull the curtain, hold her in the bed, and gently clapped her hands.
She looked through the tulle, and the door was gently pushed open.
Hot Springs led two guards in, holding a neatly folded white cloth towel in his hand, and two guards carrying a large wooden barrel. Steam swirled above the barrel, and a white silk slanted over the edge.
The hot spring put down the bath towel and asked in a low voice, "Do you need to wait for the master to bathe?" ”
"You don't need to stand down. You don't have to guard it anymore, just send a few guards from outside the courtyard and stay outside to guard it. Liu Qu said lightly. These guards were all trained by Hot Springs himself, and they were all good martial artists, and they were his close-quarters guards.
"Yes." The guards bowed respectfully towards Liu, and the hot spring portable retreated with them.
At this time, Liu went to pull open the bed curtain and walked out.
And he kept his promise.
It's just that Zhao Xing doesn't feel good, he ...... Is this going to bathe?
It's been calculated!
She was angry, but she couldn't stretch it.
At that end, Liu Qu had already untied his clothes beside the bed.
Zhao Xing looked at his robe and breathed tightly, but saw that he was still smiling slightly and looking at her shamelessly, she clenched her fists, so angry that her lungs were about to explode, and said in her heart: Lao Tzu can't hide if he can't be provoked?
She shook the quilt demonstratively at him and covered her head again.
"Come out and wait for me to take a bath." A low voice fell on the quilt like a soul. (To be continued.) )
