Chapter 124: Conditions, His Selfishness

The night is deep, and the city of Dading in December is extremely cold and freezing, and the cold wind is howling. At this time, the huge He Mansion was silent, only a few lanterns under the porch, swaying alone in the wind, emitting a flickering and dim yellow light.

The courtyard of Hefu was basically dark, and both the owner and the subordinates had returned to their beds to rest. Except for the room next to the east cloister, which was still lit.

That was where He Liancheng's study was located.

Shen Qianmo stood quietly in front of a large desk, looking at He Liancheng who was sitting behind the desk calmly. It's just that the eyes of the man in front of him are too sharp and too arrogant, which makes Shen Qianmo slightly resistant, and frowns unconsciously.

He Liancheng raised his eyes without any scruples and looked at the woman in front of him with an indifferent face and calm eyes, but he recalled what she had just said in his mind.

She said that she was willing to stay in Hefu as a hostage, as long as he could ensure her living environment and personal safety, everything else could be arranged by him.

The bright and sharp eyes looked at her unscrupulously, but He Liancheng was slightly stunned in his heart.

In his mind, it seemed that such soft words should not come out of this woman's mouth.

What the hell is she doing?

His thin lips opened lightly, and he said coldly: "As a hostage, do you think you have the right to take the initiative to make conditions?" ”

Overnight, he asked the jailer to report that he had something important to see him. He thought that something terrible had happened, but it turned out that he had come to negotiate terms with him.

Shen Qianmo still had a flat look, and said in a calm tone: "Whether there is this right or not, of course, depends on General He's opinion." But the right to control my life is in my own hands. ”

He Liancheng imprisoned her, obviously wanting to use her to threaten Meng Yuanheng, but he was not in a hurry to reveal his news in his hands to Meng Yuanheng, presumably waiting for a better time. So for him, he still has some use value for the time being.

And this is the bargaining chip she negotiated with him. She wants to try her best to fight for a better living environment for herself and protect the little life in her womb.

Hearing Shen Qianmo's indifferent words, He Liancheng's face turned slightly blue, and for some reason there was a little anger in his heart for no reason.

This woman is now threatening him with her own life? Not long after she escaped death, did she despise her life so much?

"State your reasons." He Liancheng would never believe that Shen Qianmo proposed such conditions to him because he was greedy for enjoyment and afraid of hardship.

She wasn't such a woman at all.

Shen Qianmo's face did not change and said very seriously: "Presumably, General He also knows that I am seriously injured and my body is weak, so I am really not suitable for staying in the cold and damp place of the dungeon for a long time. At that time, if he was seriously ill and bedridden, wouldn't it cause a lot of trouble to General He. ”

Of course, she couldn't let He Liancheng know that she was pregnant, if he knew that he was pregnant with Meng Yuanheng's child in his womb, with the depth of his hatred for Meng Yuanheng, I was afraid that this child would not survive.

"Hehe......" He Liancheng chuckled lightly when he heard this, which softened his handsome face, which had always been indifferent, but this smile only stayed on the surface and did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

The laughter was clear but fleeting, his flamboyant eyes swept straight towards Shen Qianmo, and said with some playfulness: "In this way, General Ben would like to thank Princess Xuan for her thoughtfulness." ”

He really admired this woman more and more, and he was able to say such a high-sounding reason so seriously, such a serious tone and a calm look, almost made him really think that she was really thinking about him.

Shen Qianmo didn't pay attention to He Liancheng's cynicism, just smiled at him gently, and said calmly: "General He thinks too much, for General He, I am just a chess piece that still has some use value for the time being, how can a chess piece have the heart to be considerate of the person who holds the chess?" At most, he can only hold the mentality of preferring to be broken rather than whole, and seek more chances to survive. ”

As if he was hurt by Shen Qianmo's words, He Liancheng's face changed, he stood up and strode in front of Shen Qianmo. Due to the height difference, he had to lean down slightly, staring at the woman in front of him with a pair of sharp eyes, faintly annoyed and angry.

She said she didn't mean to think about him at all. Isn't that normal, they're already hostile, it's strange that she cares about him. But why, after recognizing this fact, did he feel heavy breathing in his heart as if he had been blocked by a stone?

He Liancheng's height is almost the same as Meng Yuanheng's, and his perennial battlefield has made his figure a little more robust and rigid than Meng Yuanheng, who has lived in the palace for seven years, and this sudden approach made Shen Qianmo's heart tremble unconsciously.

She reluctantly settled her mind, raised her eyes to look at him, and saw the anger hidden in his eyes, although she didn't understand why he was suddenly angry, but Shen Qianmo knew that He Liancheng would not want her life.

After Meng Yuanheng's treason, now probably everyone in the world knows how affectionate and meaningful King Xuan is to his princess. So as long as He Liancheng still has the heart to deal with Meng Yuanheng, he will make good use of himself.

Sure enough, He Liancheng stared at her for a long time with complicated eyes, and then said in a deep voice: "Come on, lock her up in the east wing, and take strict care of her, and there must be no mistakes." ”

He would never admit that when Shen Qianmo proposed to him just now that he would stay in the He Mansion with peace of mind, and everything was at his command, there was a faint joy in his heart.

This is a guest room located in the east of He Liancheng's hospital, which is rarely inhabited by people, so the environment is quite quiet, and it is even Shen Qianmo's heart. The only fly in the ointment is that this room is too close to He Liancheng's study, and you can see each other from a distance through the window.

Probably to make it easier to spy on yourself. Shen Qianmo could only think so.

However, this He Liancheng kept his promise, and lived in the east wing for three days, except for the fact that he could often see his sight from a distance through the window, everything else was very clean, and the food delivered was not bad, and even Lou Xinyue's door-to-door fault was blocked by him.

Of course, he also asked her for the antidote to the Seven-Day Soul Breaking Pill.

Seeing Shen Qianmo casually pick up a small porcelain bottle from the table and hand it to him steadily, the corners of He Liancheng's mouth twitched almost invisibly, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Are you sure this is really the antidote?" ”

Shen Qianmo nodded, her expression was always indifferent. "General He is so hospitable, of course I have to repay the favor. Rest assured, this is Bailixiao's own hand, and there will be no fake. Miss Lou has a special meaning to General He, I naturally won't let her have an accident, but I just hope that the general can persuade her a few words when it is convenient for her to let her keep her duty, otherwise it will not be as simple as the Seven Days Soul Breaking Pill. ”

She has lived in Hefu for the past few days, and she also has a general understanding of Lou Xinyue's current identity. It turned out that she had a chance to become the righteous daughter of the patriarch of the largest tribe in Beidi, the patriarch had five sons under his knees, but there was only one daughter like Lou Xinyue. Therefore, although Lou Xinyue is a righteous daughter, she is also very loved by the patriarch, and even intends to marry her to He Liancheng.

He Liancheng took the porcelain vase from her hand and inadvertently touched the back of her smooth hand, and the slippery touch made him feel a wave in his heart. Forcibly suppressed the long-lost temptation feeling, his eyes were complicated, and he looked at her deeply for a long time before he snorted lightly and turned to leave.

Hmph, he didn't want to explain to her at all, in fact, he had no feelings for Lou Xinyue at all.

Shen Qianmo didn't bother to pay attention to his somewhat abnormal look, and went to bed rest by herself.

She also understands medicine and knows that she is now at risk of threatened miscarriage and must stay in bed more. And under He Liancheng's nose, the crescent moon in the building can't make any big waves, so what she has to do now is to recuperate in peace. No matter how difficult the situation is and how unwell she is, she has to do her best to save the fetus in her womb.

And Baili smiled, it seems that he is going to be wronged to stay alone in the dungeon for a while.

That night, He Liancheng stood in front of the window of the study with his hands in his hands, looking at the shadow reflected by the candlelight on the window of the east wing opposite. The cold wind poured in through the open window without obstruction, blowing his clothes fluttering and his black hair flying.

He was long and jade, his thin lips pursed, and his deep eyes narrowed slightly, shining with an inexplicable light in the dusk of the night.

At this moment, he had to admit that arranging Shen Qianmo in the East Wing was actually to satisfy his selfishness.

She should be sitting in front of the window reading a book now. As a hostage, this woman is simply a little abnormal, she stays at home every day, except for eating, sleeping, and at most just sitting in front of the window and reading a book.

He noticed that the woman seemed to like to read and write and draw on paper. He had secretly looked through what she had written, only to find that he could not read it. The words are crooked, like strange symbols, which seem to be strung together, but they are self-contained.

This woman seems to have a lot of secrets, and her thoughts are always unexpected.

He looked sideways at the small porcelain vase on the table, and suddenly felt that it was also a fun thing to act with this woman. This antidote, let's give Lou Xinyue a few days later.
