Chapter Eighty-Eight: Straight to the Point
Liu Ye didn't plan to go around in circles with the Bright Moon Holy Maiden, after Mo Wentian and Tu Qitang left, there were only two of them left in the house, there was no need to beat around the bush, just open the skylight and say something.
The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon looked at the Han princess in front of her without saying a word, this woman was only twenty years old, she came to the Western Regions from the Han Dynasty thousands of miles away, and married Wusun Kunmo Jun Sumi, who was a cut older than her. I heard that Jun Su Mi had never been to her place, and she was not worthy of the name.
In fact, this is nothing, whether the military beard does not favor her will not affect her status at all, she is also the princess of the Han Dynasty, and she will always leave her a little dignity if she doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha. But this princess is obviously unwilling to live an ordinary life, even if she doesn't have her husband's support, she can still call the wind and rain with her mother's backer.
In the case of Chigu Castle, Wusun lost three generations of old ministers Ubuji, and the Xiongnu lost their wealthy horse dealer Wei Lu. Ubuji and Wei Lu are such shrewd fellows, they are both well-known figures in the local area, and they are actually planted in the hands of this woman. Not to mention that Jun Sumi felt aggrieved, others also sounded incredible.
Then there is Dawan, the king was assassinated at the birthday banquet, and such a major event did not set off a storm in the country, and did not let those princely ministers who were waiting for the opportunity to rebel seize the opportunity, but ended quietly. Except for supporting the king's heir to ascend to the throne in the shortest possible time, there is really no rumor of civil unrest.
Then there was Qiuzi, the Xiling Sect had been deployed in Qiuci for many years before she held the Qiuci royal family in the palm of her hand, but as soon as she came, she cleaned up the king and established her prestige in Qiuci.
Even if Princess Dahan has a think tank by her side, she can't erase her merits, she must be a smart and skillful woman in ice and snow, and everything can't ignore her existence. Otherwise, despising her will be even more ugly than the stupid and dull King of Guizi.
Not only that, but she also captured Tu Qitang's heart, which is really not to be underestimated! A woman who is married to a princess can actually subdue Prince Anxi, the leader of the Xiling Sect, who has a promising future, who would dare to underestimate her! Of course, whether she can get her wish is a later story, although Tu Qitang is obsessed with her, but men, they are all new, as long as he gets tired of it, he will naturally alienate her.
The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon is a smart person, she will not do those thankless things, rather than trying to break them up and arouse Tu Qitang's disgust and hatred, it is better to ignore them, and when his novelty passes, the enthusiasm will drop, and it will be a matter of time before the two separate.
Isn't that the case with feelings, and external obstacles often only deepen their ties and bring about counterproductive effects. Tu Qitang is her son, and she believes that he will not be as dead as a poisonous scorpion, after all, his parents are not infatuated people.
Thinking of this, the Bright Moon Holy Maiden was a little relieved, originally she didn't have any opinion on this princess, even if she disrupted the Southern Holy Maiden's plan, there was a way to make her comply. However, it is too undeserved for her to have a relationship with Tu Qitang, this beam can be regarded as a knot, if she can get together and disperse, she will not be held accountable, if she is entangled, she can't sit idly by.
Liu Ye waited for a long time, but he didn't see her speak, so he had to wait patiently.
The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon smiled slightly, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were charming, so beautiful that her heart was excited, although she had a son as big as Tu Qitang, she was still so perfect, I don't know if she was more charming when she was young.
"People in the world often say that women are too smart to ......" The Holy Maiden of Mingyue paused, and then said, "I think it's better for women to be smarter, it's better to rely on heaven and earth than on yourself, do you say?" ”
Liu Ye nodded: "What the Holy Maiden said is that women should not consider themselves weak. ”
"Yes, the difference between strength and weakness does not mean the difference between men and women, it seems that you and I can talk about it together. Well, the princess will get straight to the point, and I will have something to say. If you give up the bet, I will compensate twice, how about it? ”
"I want to hear about it."
"The princess's trip to the Western Regions this time is nothing more than to establish her authority and strengthen the influence of the Han Dynasty in the Western Regions. I think the princess made a bet with King Qiuzi just to give him some eyes. Whether he fulfills it or not, your goal has been achieved, and if you want to further realize your ambitions, I am afraid you are also powerless. In this case, you might as well accept it when you see it and leave yourself a way out. The princess is so smart, this should be able to figure it out, right? The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon asked tentatively.
"So, what does the Holy Maiden mean by double compensation?" Liu Ye is like an experienced businessman, wanting to get the most advantageous chips from the other party.
"If the princess is willing to accept the suggestion, she will naturally not suffer, I will assist you to become the mother of the Wusun country, I think, this kind of compensation is more than double!" The Holy Maiden of Mingyue expected that Liu Ye would accept it, and then said, "No matter how long the princess travels, she will eventually return to Wusun, where is your in-law's house, where you should go." You have done so much to consolidate your position as the right lady, why bother to abandon your roots! With me to help you, you can rest assured that Xu Qige and those stubborn old guys are no longer an obstacle to you! ”
"Okay, I accept." Liu Ye understands the truth that if she sees a good thing, she will accept it, and the Holy Maiden of Mingyue is willing to negotiate conditions with her, which is better than killing her without saying a word, "However, can I ask a question?" ”
The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon likes people who obey her, and the two negotiated smoothly, and they were in a good mood, so they nodded happily.
"The Xiling Sect believes in the gods, and the Holy Maiden, you are the messenger of the gods, how can you be interested in asking about worldly things?" Liu Ye asked very politely, and did not say to her face that she colluded with the rest royal family to covet other countries.
The left hand of the Bright Moon Saintess rested on the coffee table, and her slender fingers flicked the table regularly, as if she was thinking about how to answer. In fact, she can also choose not to answer, Liu Ye needs her help, and she has not the courage to offend her yet.
"I am a layman, how can I get out of the world. I don't want to ascend to heaven in the next life, but I want to have no regrets in this life. The Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon sighed softly, lowered her eyes, and refused to speak again.
Liu Ye didn't know what she meant by this, "No regrets in this life"? Could it be that everything she did was to keep herself from regrets? However, what did she do was not all good, even murder and arson, what was her reason for doing so?
But what she said also makes sense, there are many people who live in the present, but they don't know how to grasp it well, and they waste their time and want to get something for nothing. It's just that who knows what will happen in the future, and cherishing the present is the wisest thing to do.
Mo Wentian led Tu Qitang to another thatched hut, where there were several tables piled with large and small bottles and cans. Mo Wentian seemed to have the intention of imparting what he had learned all his life, and enthusiastically introduced him to various poisons and antidote methods.
Helplessly, Tu Qitang's ears went in and out of that ear, and when Mo Wentian finished speaking, he didn't have any impression. He just wanted to know what the Holy Maiden of the Bright Moon had said to Liu Ye, whether she had threatened her to leave him, and if she dared to say such things, he would never tolerate it.
Mo Wentian was very conscientious, and gave a general introduction to his proud works, and casually pointed to one of the bottles and asked: "What are the symptoms of small flower thorn beans, wolf venom, and vitex mixed together with poison?" ”
Tu Qitang said casually: "Don't just look at the flowers, don't forget that there are wolves in the flowers, be careful." ”
Mo Wentian was confused when he heard this, shook his head and said: "No, I didn't say that, I asked you how to use poison, what symptoms you have, what are you talking about?" ”
Tu Qitang glanced at him irritably, turned his head and walked out: "No, I have to go over and see, what did they say, they haven't come out for so long." ”
Mo Wentian smiled helplessly: "You didn't listen to anything, you just thought about what they were saying, and you couldn't even listen to my precious poison prescriptions." ”
"Don't worry, wait a little longer." Mo Wentian stretched out his hand to grab him, dragged him back into the house, and kindly reminded, "When Mingyue talks to people, she doesn't like to be disturbed, some of them talk to each other, what are you worried about, what are you afraid of the most, you don't even have a chance to talk!" ”
Tu Qitang smiled self-deprecatingly and wryly: "Who said it wasn't, maybe I haven't seen her for too long and forgotten her habits." ”
Mo Wentian's eyes showed a hint of sadness: "It seems that there are many misunderstandings between you, you should sit down and talk about it." ”
"There's nothing to talk about, you should know better than I know what kind of person she is. Honestly, if I didn't pass those tests to become the leader, would she recognize me as a son? I know you don't mind if she hurts you, but I do, so you don't have to persuade me anymore. ”
"That's not the case, the tiger doesn't eat children, how can you think that she wants to kill you. She wants you to become a talent, so she naturally has stricter requirements, concealing the fact that you are mother and son, and she doesn't want you to leave a way out for yourself. You see, now that you're the leader, you can see that she's doing the right thing. ”
"However, I am not uncommon to be the leader of this sect." Tu Qitang said indifferently.
"Okay, I know you need time to sort out the relationship between your mother and son, you are already an adult, and you should have your own opinions." Mo Wentian patted him on the shoulder earnestly and comforted, "Blood is thicker than water, no matter when, she is your mother." ”
Tu Qitang didn't want to continue the topic, and instead asked: "What is so good about her, is it worth your effort, don't you really blame her at all?" You never regretted meeting her in the first place? ”
"Do happy things with a lover, don't ask if it's a disaster or fate." Mo Wentian said leisurely, without a trace of complaint.
"Do happy things with a lover, don't ask if it's a catastrophe or ......fate," Tu Qitang repeated his sentence, it turns out that the poisonous scorpion also has such a romantic and affectionate side, no wonder he can always love a woman.
Tu Qitang wanted to say something, but suddenly heard a slight footstep in the distance, walking and stopping, very weird. Mo Wentian glanced at him, pointed to the broken window behind him, and the two tiptoed over the window and went around to the front of the courtyard, only to see the two figures in the forest who seemed to be familiar with each other. Take a closer look, isn't it Chang Hui and "Kuster"!
Tu Qitang suddenly became angry, and the old and cunning guy of the medicine gourd actually sent someone to follow him. It's a shame that they can find here, and they have some skills. However, taking this opportunity to verify the identity of "Kuster", no matter what his path is, he will definitely not be able to escape the eyes of the Bright Moon Saintess.
But Chang Hui is Liu Ye's person, if even he suffers, Liu Ye will definitely try his best to protect him, and when the time comes, won't it be even more troublesome!
"Where did the little ghost come from, I don't know what I can do!" Mo Wentian was about to show up and catch them, but was grabbed by Tu Qitang, "I'll take care of this kind of trivial matter, I don't need you to make a move." ”
