Chapter Seventy-Seven: Cooperation, She Just Don't Do What Those People Want
When the princess was about to fall asleep, suddenly, when she heard a slight noise, she immediately got up, quickly put on the clothes that were placed aside, picked up the sword placed at the head of the bed, and walked outside vigilantly.
The room was empty, as if what she had just heard was an illusion, Princess Nanban frowned suspiciously, and after searching the room to make sure that there was no one, she walked to the bed again.
Just as Princess Nanban had just turned around, a voice sounded behind her: "Princess, the moonlight is just right tonight, why don't you accompany you to enjoy the moon?"
The Nanban princess's body stiffened, and she immediately drew her sword, turned around, and stabbed her sword straight at the place where the sound came from.
"Hehe," the man's chuckle came, "the princess's temperament is really irritable, she doesn't even look at the next glance and shoots at the next, if the reaction is a little slower, then this little life in the next is not guaranteed?" ”
After the expected sword stabbed into the air, the Nanban princess continued to stab at the man without saying a word.
The man easily dodged the sharp arrows of the Nanban princess, and said with a smile: "Princess, I came here to find the princess to cooperate this time, and I am so full of sincerity, how can the princess turn a blind eye?" Princess, you're so sad. ”
However, after a few rounds, the Nanban princess felt that this man's strength was far above her, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her moves gradually became messy, but the man seemed to not see it, and still walked leisurely avoiding the sword stabbed by the Nanban princess at will, and never fought back once.
"Hmph, sincerity, your sincerity is to cower with a mask, and don't dare to show your true face? You keep saying that you are here to cooperate with this princess, but what you do is not even the most basic sincerity, even so, why does this princess believe in you, why should she choose to cooperate with you? Seeing that she was not the opponent of the other party at all, and the other party seemed to be playing with her intentionally or unintentionally, Princess Nanban couldn't help but be angry.
"Just by virtue of being able to help the princess get what she wants, let the king marry you willingly." The man chuckled.
The Nanban princess waved her sword for a moment, the tip of the sword pointed directly at the man, and said coldly: "What do you mean by what you just said?"
"Literally, doesn't the princess understand?" The man lowered his eyes and looked at the Nanban princess pointing to his sword, and said lightly.
Princess Nanban didn't mind the man's confrontation, but asked unrelentingly: "What good way do you have?"
The man raised his hand and gently rubbed the sword in the hand of the Nanban princess, his eyes were full of exclamation: "Good sword!" But is the princess sure she wants to talk to her with this attitude? ”
Princess Nanban took the sword back into the scabbard, anyway, in front of this man, it didn't matter much if she had this sword in her hand or not, the difference in strength between the two was too great.
The man saw that the Nanban princess neatly withdrew the sword, "It seems that the princess believes that she is under it?" ”
The Nanban princess walked to the side and sat down, raised her hand to pour herself a cup of tea, and said without raising her head: "No, is there that sword, this princess is not your opponent, in this case, why should this princess make such a move?"
"Hahaha, the princess is really a temperament, if it is put on ordinary people, I am afraid it will not be said as directly and clearly as the princess." The man laughed.
"Heh, you don't have to praise this princess, you know how strong this princess is, this princess just told the truth, even if this princess doesn't admit it herself, isn't your perception of this princess in your heart inconsistent with what this princess just said?"
The man smiled but did not say a word, and his eyes were exceptionally bright at night, as if stars had fallen under his eyes.
Princess Nanban turned her face away, forced herself not to stare into the man's eyes, and said coldly: "After talking for so long, is Your Excellency still unwilling to show your true face?"
"I experienced a fire when I was a child, and my face was burned in that fire, how can I show my eyes and stain the princess's eyes?" The man's cold voice sounded, as if he was saying something innocuous about it.
"In that case, why would Princess Ben cooperate with someone who is a complete stranger? It's not early, and there are important things waiting for this princess to do tomorrow, so I won't send you to your Excellency. Princess Nanban said unceremoniously. Although she really wanted to marry Gu Li, although the conditions that the man said were very tempting, but she was not a fool, there was no free lunch in the world, who that man was, what he wanted, she didn't know anything, how could she rashly cooperate with a person who didn't know anything at all?
"The princess doesn't have to be anxious, wait until she finishes talking before making a decision." The man spoke unhurriedly.
Princess Nanban knew that she couldn't use forceful means to drive the man away, so she had to let the man continue.
"I have an enmity with the Liwang of the current Eastern Qin, and I can't wait to eat his flesh and drink his blood, but I know that I am not the opponent of the Liwang, so I specially came to the princess to cooperate with you."
"If you dare to hurt this princess's senior brother in the slightest, this princess will fight you to the end even if she fights for her life." Before the man could finish speaking, the Nanban princess said sharply.
As if he hadn't heard the threat of the Nanban princess, the man continued calmly: "If it had been in the past, I might have really tried everything to make the king pay a terrible price. But now, I don't think so, where is the physical torture more painful than the mental torture, and the more he cares about something, the more I want to destroy it. I'm going to let him watch everything he cares about be ruined little by little in front of me, that feeling, it must be very comfortable, right? Hahahaha, doesn't he care about his princess the most, then I just ruined her and made him regret it for the rest of his life. ”
Princess Nanban's brows furrowed involuntarily, she had never heard of a senior brother who had such a deep hatred with whom, who was this man?
Seeing that Princess Nanban's brows furrowed, the man said softly: "The princess doesn't have to worry, I won't do anything to the Liwang, doesn't the princess want to marry the Liwang, if the Liwang is gone, won't the princess have a legitimate reason to marry the Liwang?"
"That's Princess Ben's own business, Princess Ben will handle it, and she doesn't need to interfere as an outsider." This man is clearly going to be bad for her brother, and she can't put him in danger.
"But princess, as far as I know, if you still can't get the king to willingly agree to marry you this time, your father will arrange a marriage for you, right? This is your last chance, do you really want to give up? If you think about what she did to you for her princess before leaving the king, are you really sure that the king will marry you? By the way, I also heard that your father is already urging you to go back, you said, because you impulsively disregarded the interests of the Nanban, resulting in the loss of three points of Nanban's interests in this trade with the Eastern Qin, you said that your good imperial brothers know what to do when they go back? What will your father do to appease the anger of his courtiers? Oh, by the way, I also heard that your good royal brothers have already selected a lot of good people for you, and your father is quite satisfied, just wait for you to go back and make the final decision, princess, there is not much time left for you, do you really have to find a way to get the heart of the king here? ”
With each word the man spoke, the Nanban Princess's fist-clenched hand tightened a point, and by the end, her nails were deeply embedded in her palm. Princess Nanban kept her voice calm, stared at the man deadly, slowly spoke, and said word by word: "You, who are you?" He is obviously not from Nanban, why does he know so much about Nanban, there are many things she still doesn't know. Sure enough, her good royal brothers all wish that she would have an accident and get married quickly, but she just didn't want to do what those people wanted.
"Okay, this princess agrees to cooperate with you." Don't you want to see the jokes of this princess, this princess just doesn't show it to you, this princess wants all of you to know that there is nothing that this princess wants to get, what she wants to do, and who she wants cannot be realized. It was, it is, and it will be!
Gu Li, she is married!
"Hahaha, it's refreshing enough, and I like to work with people like princesses." The man laughed.
"Well, what do you want from this princess? Money, power, or status?" Princess Nanban didn't want to waste any more thoughts about going around in circles with this man, so she mentioned it directly and concisely.
"What the princess said is all in the way." The man smiled and refused.
"And what do you want?" Princess Nanban said coldly. Throughout the ages, no one in this world can escape the temptation of money, power, and status, unless the man in front of him has greater ambitions.
"The princess doesn't have to look at her with this kind of look, the princess can rest assured, she won't make any unreasonable demands, and what she wants is just one person from beginning to end."
"Who?"
"Leave the princess!" The man was unequivocal.
"Why, you are also the same as Princess Ben's senior brother, you like the woman Mu Qianxia? I really don't understand you men, Mu Qianxia, this woman is nothing but good-looking, why do you want to get her favor one by one. Senior brother is like this, and so are you, going around and talking to this princess for so long, aren't you afraid that this princess will hurt her? ”
The man didn't feel unnatural at all after his mind was exposed, but just asked with a smile: "Does the princess agree or not to this condition?"
"Princess Ben promises you."
"I'll thank the princess first."
The two discussed together for a long time, until the light gradually cleared, and the man left the Nanban princess's house.
After the man left, the smile on Princess Nanban's face disappeared in an instant, although she didn't know who this man was, and she knew that even if she tried her best to investigate, she wouldn't find the slightest clue about this man, but she believed that as long as she could stand by her brother's side smoothly and openly in the future, she would not let anyone hurt her brother in the slightest, and everyone who wanted to hurt her brother would have to die!
