Chapter 60: Alliances
"Weak and selfish and incapable of self-preservation, such a burden, what do you like about her?" , Xie Hengxu sat at the table, his slender fingers holding the silver hairpin and stirring the lamp, and his tone was light and low.
The sound of water behind the one-person-high screen was dripping, the red plums painted on the screen were soaked by Qing Lingling's water droplets, and the red underwear that was randomly placed on the screen slipped from the inside, attracting him to look sideways.
"She's beautiful, and she's ambitious."
Xie Hengxu got up and paced behind the screen, his slender index finger gently sketching along the blurred shadow on the screen, and the smile on his lips flowed freely.
"Such an ambitious but incapable person, if you follow her every time to achieve your wishes, you will develop a wolf that cannot be fed, and one day if you don't feed it again, you will bite the master."
Tillian walked around the screen and looked at him sideways, "Beauty is a woman's weapon, an ambitious and beautiful woman, as long as she gets help, she can rise to the top, of course, the lack of ability is the best, you can help her up, you can also let her fall." ”
took the handkerchief hanging on the screen, Xie Hengxu stepped forward and gently wiped the end of her dripping hair, "You want to send her to the palace?" ”
Noncommittal, Di Lian smiled, "Although Na Ji is different from Jiang Dilian's elegance, she is a stunning beauty, and there is always a lack of a rare interpretation flower by the emperor's side. ”
Shaking her head helplessly, Xie Hengxu picked her up and put her on the bed, the two sat opposite each other, and whispered in a clear voice, "She is Li Qi's woman now, if she enters the palace, she will meet one day, and if Xiahou An knows about it, he will definitely guess that I sent Na Ji into the palace to distract him." ”
"Now that he is the emperor, he should naturally be the emperor's thinking, and the Li family is the henchman he wants to support, if he knows that the woman Li Qi slept with has become his favorite concubine, if you are the emperor, you may endure it?" , the phoenix's eyes were bright and clear, and Tilian said with a smile, "If I were Li Qi, even if I saw Na Ji in the palace, I would only pretend not to know, and I could avoid trouble, so why burn myself?" ”
"There's always a point to what you're saying." , Xie Hengxu laughed clearly.
His eyebrows raised, his fingers running through his long half-dried hair, Tilian looked at him and said, "Is Li Qi still staring at you now?" ”
"This person can be compared with Feng Xie, he is above the training, but he has some ability, I don't think it is worse than those deputy generals in the army, Xiahou An can also be regarded as a discerning person." , slender fingertips lightly hooked her with a wisp of green silk, and Xie Hengxu's voice was low.
When Di Lian heard this, she hooked her lips disapprovingly, "Speaking of Feng Xie, I don't think this Li Qi can compare with him." Has Chu Xi ever sent a letter? ”
Nodding slightly, Xie Hengxu said, "Shortly after you left Beijing, the eldest brother received a letter, as if mentioning that Miss Chu had set up a family affair, and the eldest brother would go to Jinjiang in person on the other day. ”
"He must have a grudge against us, according to my intentions, he should have been kept under his nose, and he is far away in Jinjiang and cannot be controlled, which is really difficult to reassure." Tillian frowned slightly.
After Emperor An ascended the throne, he wanted to exterminate the Feng family, and if Feng Xie died like this, it would become a knot in Xie Hengxu's heart.
That day, when she witnessed the relatives of the three Feng families who were escorted out of Beijing by the window on the third floor of 'Dinershuan', Xie Hengxu asked her, 'Do you have something to do?' and Tilian knew that Feng Xie must be saved.
According to her thoughts, if the grass is not eradicated, there will be troubles, even if Feng Xie survives, he will not be able to fight back, but Xie Hengxu insisted on sending him out of Beijing, as if he was quite confident that Feng Xie was a gentleman who personally gambled and lost.
I'm afraid that Xie Hengxu is the only one who hopes that Feng Xie will not only live, but also live well.
"The eighteen counties of Jinjiang are the Chu family's sphere of influence, Feng Xie is now a shrimp in the sea, there is Chu Xi staring at him, he can't make big waves, don't worry too much." , gently hugged Tillian's shoulder, Xie Hengxu smiled and comforted.
Seeing his inattentive face, Di Lian felt helpless, this person always thought that he knew him very well because Feng Xie had been with him side by side, in fact, Feng Xie was much deeper than Xie Hengxu's city mansion, otherwise he would not have been so clever at the beginning to think of the ruthless trick of the troubled water, if she hadn't been one step faster, I am afraid that it would not be Xia Hou'an who is sitting in the position today.
Dealing with Feng Xie's affairs, it's better for her to think slowly.
The next day, Naki visited the 'Lingyun Pavilion' again, and although she had said that to Tillian yesterday, she still couldn't fully trust Tillian to help her reach the peak of wealth, after all, in Naki's opinion, she was just an alien dancer.
When the maid entered the door, she came out and invited Naki into the house, and when she entered, she saw Tillian leaning on a soft couch, and an old doctor in a green shirt with gray hair was checking her pulse by the couch.
Tillian raised her eyes to look at her, her chin slightly raised to indicate the position at the other end of the couch and smiled, "Sit down." ”
Naki smiled and nodded, paced to the edge of the couch and sat down, her eyes fell on the old doctor, only to see that his eyebrows were expressionless, and his body was thin and sitting precariously, but there was a bit of a fairy wind and bones.
Tilian glanced at Luo Jia, who was pretending to be pretending, with her free left hand, she picked up the cherries on the small table and put them in her mouth, and said leisurely, "Doctor Luo, my body is better?" “
Luo Jia's eyebrows frowned slightly, stroked the goatee on his chin in a similar manner, withdrew his hand and said solemnly, "The girl's body cold needs to be slowly recuperated, and General Xie will have to wait a little longer if he wants to be happy." ”
Choked on the cherry pit in her throat, Tilian coughed violently, and her light blue Danfeng eyes stared straight at Luo Jia, looking at his unsmiling expression, she couldn't help but feel depressed.
Seeing her suddenly choked, Naki looked surprised, and quickly got up to pat her on the back, "How can you still choke on cherry pits." ”
Smoothed down the peach pit in her throat, picked up the teacup on the small table and poured it, Tillian smiled and motioned for Naki to take a seat, while quietly slanting Luo Jia's eyes, and said with a smile, "Then there will be Dr. Lauro." ”
Hearing this, there was a bit of gritted teeth, Luo Jia's lowered eyes flashed a hint of laughter, his thin lips trembled slightly, and he got up and bowed, "The old man will adjust the prescription, the girl is so self-reliant, and the old man will leave." ”
"Doctor Luo walks slowly," Watching him turn away neatly, Tillian clenched her fingertips and looked back at Naki, "This old man doesn't care about people, but he speaks amazingly every time, and he has no taboos when he speaks, but he makes you laugh at me." ”
Naki smiled gently, "Xu is really good at medicine, and people with great abilities have some quirks." However, with him taking care of you, it seems that after a while, you will be able to rely on your mother and son. ”
Is a mother more expensive than a child? Tillian smiled, she still needs a mother and a child? Now that there is still a year left in the filial piety period of his grandfather, how could Xie Hengxu dare to touch her before the two got married, his son is not ready to be reincarnated.
In his heart, he slandered, and said in his mouth, "I still need to rely on the child to tie him?" ”
Listening to her casual and dismissive tone, Na Ji felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she relied on General Xie to be obedient to her in every way, so she would say such a thing. Speaking of which, General Xie is also a son of a high-ranking family and can lead troops to fight and make meritorious contributions, I heard that his identity is much higher than Li Qi, but he is such an unattainable man, but he is so affectionate.
Thinking of this, Naki sighed in her heart, "Your life is so good. ”
"My life is good, but luck has always been better." , Tillian sipped tea lightly, smiling gently, "Your life is not bad, at least you meet me, and your luck can be regarded as good." ”
Saying this, Naji couldn't help frowning, and looked at the side of Tillian's delicate painting of the bewitching ye, "I thought about it all night yesterday, you and I are in the same situation, what can you help me?" ”
Zhu lips hooked slightly, and Tillian said softly, "My situation and yours are completely different. ”
"What's the difference?" , Na Ji frowned and pursed her lips, in her opinion, Lingji is the same as her, a foreign race disdainful of the people in the Guannai, a lowly song and dance girl, even if she is attached to a powerful clan, she can only be a concubine for the rest of her life.
In fact, what Lingji said to her yesterday, she both expected and couldn't believe it, and the dignity of the unsurpassed was like a fantasy for these lowly alien singers.
Looking at her with a side smile, Di Lian said in a low voice, "When you leave Li Qi and enter the capital, you will naturally know where the difference is." ”
Looking at the woman in front of her who was smiling like a flower and looking like a charm, Na Ji held the handkerchief in her hand tightly and looked at her without blinking, "I won't do anything that I'm not sure of, you always have to take something to make me believe that without Li Qi, I can really enter the capital to meet the emperor, otherwise, I won't give up what I hold now." As long as she saw the emperor, she was confident that she could win his favor and jump to the top of wealth.
If she had been moved by Tillian's words, Tillian would not have chosen Naki.
"You don't believe my words, you should always believe Xie Hengxu's words, what if he wants to send you to Beijing, or even the palace?"
Naki's face changed drastically, "You told him about these things?" ”
"You don't have to panic, I won't hurt you, I said, I need us to help each other, as long as you agree, it will be used by him, and he can naturally guarantee that you can see the emperor." Seeing that her face was pale and hesitant, Di Lian sighed lightly, "You know, Li Qi will not help you, you can only choose us." ”
Naki took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "Who are you, you must not be Kabuhime!" For such a big thing, General Xie would actually listen to her, she was able to influence General Xie, this kind of cognition is already amazing for Na Ji.
"I'm really not a song and dance girl, as for who I am, when you enter the palace, see you next time, you will naturally know." , Gently put down the teacup in her hand, Tillian chuckled softly and said, "As long as you think about it, do you want to cooperate?" ”
Na Ji's phoenix eyes were slightly misty, "One day, what do you want me to help you?" ”
"Don't worry, you won't lose your life, as long as you can still help me wholeheartedly, after the deed is done, you can still enjoy the glory of being a human being."
", I promise you."
