But why did Xu Qingzhu lie to her?

Obviously, he was poisoned by fire and needed the nine-petal snow lotus Xu Qingzhu himself, why did he cover up the news of the nine-petal snow lotus?

For a while, Yan Ruo had a thousand doubts in her heart, but she didn't show any emotion on her face.

And after Xu Huai'an made sure that Yan Ruo had seen the contents of the box, he put the box away and put it away again.

Probably because he was afraid that Yan Ruo would grab it directly, then the last chip in his hand would be gone.

"Ming people don't say secret words, since Your Highness knows that I need a nine-petal snow lotus, and you invite me to the restaurant to meet, then Your Highness might as well directly talk about your conditions. I wonder what news His Highness wants to present this time? ”

"I just need General Su to do two things for me." Xu Huaiqing's eyes fell on Yan Ruo's voice, and he said in a serious tone, "First of all, please ask General Su not to marry my third emperor brother." The second thing is to ask General Su to help me win the throne. If General Su agrees to these two things, I will offer the nine-petal snow lotus with both hands! ”

Hearing these two conditions, the doubts in Yan Ruo's heart suddenly disappeared.

She was still thinking about what Xu Huai'an said, Xu Qingzhu would lie to her that Xu Huai'an's news that he had a nine-petal snow lotus in his hand was fake, but now she knows.

According to the temperament of her little five, none of the two conditions proposed by Xu Huai'an were acceptable to him.

In order to confirm his guess, Yan Ruo couldn't help but ask Xu Huai'an, "The conditions you put forward with the third prince last time were also these two?" ”

Xu Huai'an shook his head and said honestly: "Last time, I didn't know that the mother emperor would give you a marriage, so I only mentioned the second condition. ”

Yan Ruo frowned slightly, "Then why did you add another condition this time." You don't want me to marry him? Are you afraid that I will be on his side because of this, and become a stumbling block for you to take the throne? ”

"No, I don't want you to marry because I like you."

Yan Ruo was stunned, she never thought that Xu Huai'an would like her, let alone that he would speak so calmly.

After Xu Huai'an said this, his eyes were still on Yan Ruo and never left, as if he wanted to see what her response was.

"Your Highness, don't be joking, you are now Miss Wen's husband, and if such words are spread, I am afraid that it will affect your reputation. Please be cautious, Your Highness. ”

When he saw Yan Ruo say this, when he looked away from his cold gaze, Xu Huaian only felt as if his heart had been stabbed by something.

He still remembered that the woman in front of him had looked at Xu Qingzhu's gaze full of softness and light, but she was only alienated and wary in the face of herself......

Xu Qingzhu felt uncomfortable, so he understood what Yan Ruo meant.

- She doesn't like herself.

And he was also limited by the name "Wen Mengqiu Fujun".

"Regardless of these, this palace just wants to ask, is General Su willing to agree to the conditions just now?" Xu Huai'an bent his fingers and looked at Yan Ruo seriously, "Please ask General Su to understand this matter before answering." After all, the fire poison is domineering, and if you think that the person who is suffering from fire poison is attacked by toxins every day, this life must be bad. If the toxins in his body had been removed earlier, he would have suffered less. ”

He was forcing Yan Ruo.

is also testing Yan Ruo's sincerity to Xu Qingzhu.

At the moment, he hoped that Yan Ruo would agree to this condition. If she chooses to help him win the throne, she will be tied to the same boat as him. Even if Yan Ruo didn't like him, it made Xu Huaian feel closer to her.

But in the same way, Xu Huaian didn't want Yan Ruo to agree to this condition. If she agreed, it must be because she wanted the nine-petal snow lotus and wanted to remove the fire poison for Xu Qingzhu. If she doesn't agree, it will be tantamount to choosing to watch Xu Qingzhu die, does that prove that she doesn't like Xu Qingzhu so much?

The two contradictory emotions were intertwined in Xu Huai'an's heart, so that although he looked calm and calm, in fact, there was a thin sweat overflowing in his palms.

And Yan Ruo's answer ......

"Although Su Mou wants this nine-petal snow lotus very much, the conditions proposed by His Highness are too harsh." Under Xu Huai'an's nervous gaze, Yan Ruo said his decision slowly, "Please forgive Su for not being able to agree, and he is also unwilling to agree." ”
