Chapter 13: The Beginning of Negotiations
It was just such a sentence that made Chu Jiangli suddenly numb all over his body, and he could almost shake off goosebumps on the ground.
Was Bai Yiwen's head squeezed by the door, or was he accidentally kicked by a donkey, or was he confused by her medicine? Such a polite, such gentle voice, is really the ...... That Bai Yiwen who can't wait to destroy her whole person?
With a frown at the corner of his mouth, Chu Jiangli had done a long psychological construction for himself, and then he calmed down. Regardless of whether he is sincere or fake, she will leave the army to block the water and cover the earth, and see who can cure whom.
Taking a deep breath, Chu Jiangli calmly stepped forward to open the door, his face was not dewy, so that people couldn't guess what she was thinking.
The first rule of the Chu family is not to be in a hurry and not to be alarmed.
"Miss Chu, please come with me." Seeing Chu Jiangli appear in front of him with a calm face, Bai Yiwen's heart was not as calm as her.
When he first came out, he was taken special care of by Zhang Xu, and he was as polite as he could be to Chu Jiangli, and as polite as he could. It is related to the future of his family's prince's life, but there can be no mistakes.
But since everyone is so calm, Bai Yiwen has nothing to say, so thousands of words come together, and they only turn into a sentence "Please come with me." ”
Although Chu Jiangli didn't have much expression on her face, her eyes didn't rest, but she had been paying close attention to Bai Yiwen's reaction. After seeing the complexity that flashed on his face, he had already guessed what Shen Junyu had invited her over for this time.
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, Chu Jiangli hooked a smile, nodded generously to Bai Yiwen, and said softly: "Okay." After speaking, he didn't wait for Bai Yiwen to lead the way, but walked forward by himself.
Seeing Chu Jiangli behaving like this, Bai Yiwen couldn't help but be stunned, but he reacted after a second and hurriedly chased after him. Only this time, he chose to walk behind Chu Jiangli and had no intention of leading the way.
This road Chu Jiangli had already walked three times, and he had already memorized the route, so it didn't take much time this time, and the two of them had already arrived in Shen Junyu's small courtyard.
It's just that when he saw a table of wine and food in the hall, Shen Junyu was sitting steadily at the top, and Zhang Xu was standing aside, Chu Jiangli immediately stopped and stood outside the door and refused to enter.
"Miss Chu, please come in." Bai Yiwen saw that Chu Jiangli stopped and was not moving forward, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, but he still urged loudly.
Chu Jiangli turned a deaf ear to his urging, but instead took three steps back, and retreated straight into the courtyard outside the corridor.
Hmph, if you want to give her a dismount, it depends on whether she agrees or not.
"Miss Chu? How do you ......" Seeing that Chu Jiang couldn't advance and retreat, Bai Yiwen really didn't understand, so he wanted to ask a few words, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Chu Jiangli again.
"Why don't you go in?" Chu Jiangli first finished asking Bai Yiwen's question, and then deliberately replied loudly: "I want to go in, but I don't know in what capacity." Are you a guest? Is it an alliance? Or is it ...... Other? ”
She's stupid, I don't understand what that means. If she goes in now, then she will really be a lot shorter than Shen Junyu, and she won't even be a guest. What is that called, that is to ask the subordinate to report to the master, she doesn't want to be so inexplicably inferior.
As soon as these words came out, Shen Junyu and Zhang Xu in the room understood that Chu Jiangli had already seen their purpose. So in order to ease the atmosphere, Zhang Xu immediately came out of the room and said to her kindly: "Miss Chu, please come in, the prince has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
Who knew that Chu Jiangli was still unmoving, still standing in place. However, she still took the time to say something to Zhang Xu, but this sentence was really choked on him: "Lord Zhang, can you represent your prince?" ”
Can he, of course he can't!
Zhang Xu knew completely now that if Shen Junyu didn't come to greet him, it would be a step closer to being able to step into the room. So, he could only glance at Shen Junyu and ask him to come out.
But Shen Junyu is the prince after all, and only others have ever greeted him, when has he ever greeted others. In this way, even if Zhang Xu was about to blink his eyes, he didn't have the idea to stand up.
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to reach an impasse again, Zhang Xu weighed it in his heart, and suddenly walked into the house again, went to Shen Junyu's side, and stretched out his hand to pull him up when he was not paying attention: "Lord Wang, Miss Chu is here." ”
"Bang!" With a bang, Shen Junyu's left hand hit the table, causing the cups and dishes on the table to make a sound. And his left hand was also in pain.
But before Shen Junyu could express any opinion on this matter, Chu Jiangli suddenly walked in and stood opposite Shen Junyu: "Seventh Prince, it's polite." ”
Well, she knew that it would be impossible to let Shen Junyu come out to greet her, and she didn't feel that she had such a big shelf. So what she was waiting for was the moment when Shen Junyu left the stool and stood up. As long as he stood up, at least she would be a guest.
As for whether he was pulled up by Zhang Xu or couldn't help jumping up in anger, it didn't matter.
Seeing that Chu Jiangli had already come in, Shen Junyu's original dissatisfaction could only be endured temporarily. No matter how dissatisfied he is, he has to protect his face first.
"Hehe, Miss Chu is polite, sit down." Stiffly pulled out a smile, what Shen Junyu said was very contrary to his will. He always felt that Chu Jiangli's appearance was used to challenge his patience, thinking that he was a dignified prince, when did he ever be so "nested".
"Thank you." Chu Jiangli was not polite at all, and sat down on a nearby stool. Then, without waiting for Shen Junyu to say something, he directly took the chopsticks, grabbed a piece of something and filled it into his mouth.
Well, if it's really the rice of the palace, it tastes really good.
Stunned to see Chu Jiangli's movements, the other three only felt tightness in their chests and shortness of breath. What is the origin of this Chu Jiangli, there is no etiquette that should be there, and there are behaviors that should not be everywhere, and it is really a master who is angry and does not pay for his life.
"That...... Miss Chu," Zhang Xu first helped Shen Junyu sit down, and then looked at Chu Jiangli. He originally wanted Chu Jiangli to stop eating first, but when he saw her stormy posture, he had no choice but to dispel his thoughts, and Ai Ai held back a sentence: "About the conditions you proposed......"
"There's no hurry." Before Zhang Xu finished speaking, Chu Jiangli raised his chopsticks first, and said with a nonchalant face: "After eating, it's too late to talk about this matter." And I don't mind if you think about it more carefully. ”
Chu Jiangli's nonchalant attitude completely made the other three people in the room speechless. From the beginning, she was the one who said that she was going to make a deal, and she was the one who had been there to fight for her own interests, but when it came to the end, she was all gone.
So, three suspicious and helpless eyes shot at her in unison, trying to see something from her behavior.
It's just that Chu Jiangli at this time didn't seem to realize how much impact what he just said had on others. She still eats and drinks happily, as if everything in the outside world has nothing to do with her.
But is the truth exactly the same as what she showed?
The answer, of course, is no.
The reason why Chu Jiangli did this was because she wanted to wear down the patience of the three of them, and by the way, let the three of them get angry again. And the advantage of this is that when a person is impatient and depressed, he cannot deal with the problem calmly. And at that time, she can fight for a little more benefit for herself.
It's just that looking at the current situation, it seems that the time has not yet come. So Chu Jiangli decided decisively and put a fire on their heads again: "Huh? Why don't you eat it? There are so many dishes, I can't eat them and waste them, but I will be punished by God. ”
"......" was silent for a while.
Originally, Shen Junyu saw that Chu was going to leave Zhenghuan, and he didn't seem to have any intention of negotiating, so he wanted to solve the problem of his five visceral temples first. But as soon as the chopsticks he stretched out grabbed a piece of meat, he heard Chu Jiangli say this, and he immediately lost his appetite. It's just that the chopsticks he stretched out are not withdrawn, nor are they stopped there.
Secretly observing Shen Junyu's reaction, Chu Jiangli couldn't help but feel happier when he knew that his goal had been achieved, and his eating speed went up to a new level. Get one, and ...... the rest
General Chu glanced at Zhang Xu's location without a trace, and when he saw his tangled expression, he also knew that it was almost there. Then, there is Bai Yiwen.
Taking the opportunity of picking up vegetables, Chu Jiangli twisted his body in one direction, and took the opportunity to observe Bai Yiwen's expression, but saw that he was standing on the side of the dining table, closing his eyes and recuperating, without even looking at her.
Hmph, Chu Jiangli pursed his lips depressedly, expressing dissatisfaction with Bai Yiwen's reaction. But it doesn't matter, in this negotiation, the two people who took the idea have now been made no longer calm by her, so they don't have to care about the paralyzed face standing next to her.
When everything was confirmed, Chu Jiangli accelerated his meal again, but after eating two bites of food, he suddenly stopped eating. Then, grab your own teacup and drink it down.
When she put down the teacup, the original temperament of being a little childish disappeared instantly, and was replaced by a calm and calm person, sitting there calmly and leisurely. It was as if from the very beginning, there was such a quiet person sitting there. And the one they saw before, just because of the dazzle.
"Seventh Prince, now, we can have a good talk."
