402 Bet on life and death
Emperor Chu's expression gradually worsened, and Xue Rou chuckled lightly when she heard this. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Of course not, Your Majesty is the son of Southern Chu, how dare I threaten, I just want to tell Your Majesty that I had no intention of being an enemy of Southern Chu, so Emperor Chu doesn't have to put anything that can't be found on my head, which is too undignified."
Emperor Chu was furious when he heard this, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "Xue Rou, you are so bold!" He calmly looked at Xue Rou who was standing alone and said, "Do you think you are Ning Ziqing, and there is a Ning family firm behind you, so I really can't help you?!" ”
Xue Rou restrained her smile when she heard this, and looked up at Emperor Chu.
"Of course not, Xue Rou never underestimated Emperor Chu, I am in the Chu Emperor Palace at this time, surrounded by forbidden troops, if His Majesty the Emperor Chu wants my life, it is just a matter of one sentence, although the Ning family firm has wealth, no amount of money can be exchanged for a dead person, Xue Rou is a person who cherishes his life, but if I am asked to admit that I have not done anything because of his life, Xue Rou is unwilling."
Emperor Chu looked at Xue Rou with a calm face, seeing that her back was straight, although her face was a little pale, but her eyes were looking at him directly without flinching, her eyes were deep, and her eyebrows were full of undisguised arrogance and sharpness, and that indomitable momentum made him can't help but praise in his heart, such a demeanor, such a bearing, not to mention a royal child, how many people in this world can compare? If Xue Rou was born as a man, there would definitely be her in this world, and looking at Xue Rou's appearance at this time, Emperor Chu felt inexplicably familiar, and those sharp and secluded eyes were like ...... Sima Wencheng back then!
Emperor Chu's face eased a little, although the anger in his eyes was there, he had no murderous aura, Xue Rou's expression remained unchanged when she saw this, but she was relieved in her heart, she knew that at least she had passed the first level.
The two of them just talked a few words, it seemed simple, and even in the confrontation, she still had the upper hand, but Xue Rou knew very well in her heart that Emperor Chu might not have no temptation under his anger, if she had a little hesitation just now, or a little bit of weakness in her words, let Emperor Chu believe that she was the mastermind behind the Hundred Flowers Festival, and let him feel that she came to Southern Chu to covet the inheritance of the throne, and Emperor Chu would definitely not hesitate to leave her in the palace.
Xue Rou raised her head slightly, and the previously injured place on her body cracked apart again because of the tightness of the muscles, the blood there stained her clothes, and the light purple palace dress was dyed with a faint blood, but she looked at Emperor Chu without changing her face and said: "I know what His Majesty Emperor Chu meant by calling me here today, and I also know what Emperor Chu is worried about, but I just want to say that whether it is Xue Rou or Ning's firm, they have no intention of making enemies with Southern Chu, or even ...... I can promise Your Majesty that at some point, I, as well as the Ning Clan's firm, can help Nan Chu. ”
Emperor Chu's expression trembled when he heard this, he didn't expect Xue Rou to make this kind of promise, you must know that the reason why the Ning family firm can transcend things is because they do not belong to any country, and the Ning family is also independent of other countries, once Xue Rou's words come out today, the world knows that the Ning family belongs to Southern Chu, and the transcendent status of the Ning family will naturally disappear, and even, people from all countries will be jealous and even suspicious of the Ning family, and for Southern Chu, if you can get the Ning family, it is a great benefit.
Emperor Chu leaned forward slightly, his eyes were firmly fixed on Xue Rou's eyes, and he said word by word: "How do you prove that what you said today is not casual?" ”
Xue Rou said lightly: "I'm tired of the days of wandering around, and I am willing to settle down in the Chu State, hoping to be blessed by the Chu Emperor." ”
Emperor Chu's eyes were dark, and he looked at Xue Rou's expression, while Xue Rou pursed her lips lightly and her face did not fluctuate.
The atmosphere in the imperial study fell silent for a while, and the two looked at each other, and their hearts were turbulent.
Emperor Chu looked at the woman in front of him, his eyes filled with murderous intent and hesitation. This woman is too smart, smart makes him feel dangerous, he summoned Xue Rou into the palace today, it is true that he has the intention of making the Ning family obedient, but his verbal persecution is completely different from Xue Rou's own words to stay. If Xue Rou refused to give in from beginning to end, and in the end he forced her to stay, he might feel that under the fame was nothing more than that, such an arrogant and unsleek person, he would not even hesitate to take her for his own use.
But Xue Rou is completely the opposite, she is hard when she is hard, and she would rather bend when she is hard, but at the critical moment, she knows how to take a step back and protect herself, and even make herself invincible in a word, and even force him to become the one who makes the choice from the winner, this kind of mentality, if she is left in Nanchu, I am afraid that one day she will hurt herself!
But the Ning family ......
Emperor Chu squinted slightly, what he said was calm, but in the face of the monstrous wealth of the Ning family, how many people in this world could really not be moved?
Although Southern Chu is rich, second only to the Great Zhou among the countries, but Southern Chu is only rich in silk tea, porcelain and utensils, but it is far inferior to Beirong in ironware, war horses, and minerals, and is even inferior to the Great Zhou.
On the contrary, if he really killed Xue Rou today, although in addition to doubts, but the Ning family firm is all over the world, if they fight back desperately and defect to Beirong, Beirong is already strong in the army, and only because of money and food restrictions can not wave the army to the south, if the Ning family business house does its best to help, Da Zhou, Nanchu, who can compete with the Beirong iron cavalry division?
Emperor Chu looked at Xue Rou's eyes with uncertain light, sometimes murderous intent, sometimes angry, and Xue Rou also clenched her fists tightly under her sleeves, she knew that today was life or death, all in the thought of Emperor Chu. She knew that Emperor Chu suspected her purpose of coming to Chu State, and she knew that Emperor Chu wanted to kill her, she was gambling, betting that even if Emperor Chu was selfish and stubborn, he also had the vision of being an emperor, and even more betting that Emperor Chu was now ruthless and even looked mediocre, but he still had the ambition and ** to unify the Three Kingdoms in his bones!
Once he is ambitious, he naturally knows how to weigh the gains and losses of killing her and keeping her, as long as he is a smart person, he will know how to keep her, and even subdue her, which is far more than killing her!
Xue Rou stood in place expressionlessly, but her heart mentioned that she hadn't put her life under the choice of others for a long, long time.
But sooner or later, this level will have to be passed!
Half an hour later, when Xue Rou thought that he had made a mistake, Emperor Chu suddenly burst out laughing.
"Okay, Xue Rou, since you have this wish, I have no reason to refuse, from today on, I will crown you as the lord of Rong'an, seeing that the royal family does not need to bow down, the same prince, all the merchants of the Ning family in the territory of Chu are blessed by the Chu royal family, what do you think?"
