Chapter 45: Negotiation or Assassination?

As mentioned last time, the negotiators sent by Soochow were the singers who assassinated Liu Hou at the beginning.

Liu Hou reunited with Zhou Xue, who pretended to be a singer, and was pleasantly surprised. I am happy that this Zhou Xue is gorgeous, he often misses her, and now he can see her again as he wishes, he is naturally overjoyed. Surprised, another messenger, Lu Mao, said that this Zhou Xue was intended to be given to him by Buqiu to serve as a pillow, and to put it bluntly, it was given to him as a concubine.

Liu Hou knows that this matter is not so simple, Bu Qi will not be so boring and give a beautiful woman to play with for no reason, although under the guise of wanting to withdraw from the army, Liu Hou will never believe that Bu Qiu will be naïve enough to think that a woman can change her own retirement, so there is definitely a conspiracy.

At this time, Lu Mao asked Liu Hou again if he was still satisfied with this beauty and when he would withdraw from the army, Liu Hou pretended not to hear his request to withdraw from the army, and laughed:

"Yes, yes, it's beautiful, I love it." As he spoke, he walked up to Zhou Xue, gently pinched her smooth chin with the index finger and thumb of his right hand, raised her head, and looked at him.

There was a slippery feeling at the entrance, and there was a faint fragrance from the end of the nose, at that moment, Liu Hou's heart swayed, and he could hardly hold himself.

He has a very strong desire to embrace the beauty in front of him, just like when he saw a favorite toy when he was a child, he wanted to buy it, and now he also wants to have this girl, even if he knows that she is a thorny rose.

"You say she's here to serve me on a pillow? But I don't think it's like it, you see her reluctant. Liu Hou still stared greedily at the girl's flower-like face, and said to Lu Mao.

"How could it be, it was her blessing to be able to serve the prince, how could she not want to. She's just indifferent by nature, she's like this to anyone, and the prince doesn't have to take it to heart. Come, Miss Zhou, smile and show the prince. Lu Mao said.

Zhou Xue listened to Lu Mao's words, not only did she not laugh, but she also pinned her head again and broke free of Liu Hou's fingers.

"Look, look, I don't want to come to serve me, but to do my good." Liu Hou said casually.

Who knows, as soon as he said this, Lu Mao and Zhou Xue both became nervous, Lu Mao's expression changed Liu Hou didn't see it, but Zhou Xue, he kept staring.

He saw that when Zhou Xue said that it was not good for him, the expression on her face froze for a moment, and her hands clenched, but soon she relaxed and pretended to be casual again.

"There will be, there will, whoever eats the bear's heart and leopard gall dares to disadvantage your Royal Highness the Crown Prince. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is eloquent and heroic, in fact, Zhou Xue has admired him for a long time. She didn't know how happy she was to stay with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Lu Mao slapped the horse in a cold sweat.

"Oh? Are you sure? Liu Hou asked playfully.

"Of course it's true."

"Hehe, if she really admires me, why doesn't she say it to me herself, but wants you to be a big man?"

"This, this, His Royal Highness the Prince, you also know that it is normal for the girl's family to be a little shy. This kind of embarrassing words, how can she, a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, say it. Lu Mao explained with great difficulty.

"Oh, that makes sense. Still, I want to hear her say it herself, so I believe it. You also know that Soochow and my Han have been fighting for many years, maybe Sun Quan can't beat us, and he will come up with some conspiracy to harm me, and it may not be necessary to send a female assassin to assassinate me. ”

"This is absolutely nothing, our lord is also a hero in the world, how could he do such a dirty thing." Lu Mao swore authentically.

"Well, if she really admires me, then swear in front of me, as long as you swear that you will love me for the rest of your life, and only love me, always be good to me, never betray me, and never do anything sorry for me, then I believe that you really came to serve the pillow and not to assassinate me." Liu Hou showed an obscene look again.

Lu Mao and Zhou Xue broke out in a cold sweat when they heard this, could it be that this prince really saw through that he was here to assassinate? How could he have said such a thing.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, I have sent all the people, is this something fake? It must have been given to the prince to serve on the pillow, you look at her delicate appearance, she has no power to restrain the chicken, how can she be an assassin.

Besides, His Royal Highness the Prince, the oath you just said is also very embarrassing, how can she be a girl's family, please ask the prince to know it. Although he suspected that Liu Hou had seen through their conspiracy, Lu Mao was still lucky, hoping to pass this hurdle by lip service.

"It's not that I don't believe you, but you have to say what you think, if you don't say it, how will people know what you think in your heart. Look at her, she didn't say a word when she came here, she just snorted coldly a few times, how do I know if there is something dissatisfied in her heart. ”

"Believe it or not, who is going to swear to you!" Zhou Xue finally said the first sentence when she came here.

"Look, look, what kind of attitude is this."

"Miss Zhou, please treat the prince better." Lu Mao said to Zhou Xuedao.

"You have to think clearly, if you are willing to swear what you just said, oh yes, you must swear by the honor of your father Zhou Yu, I will promise to let Bu Qiu live. If you don't want to, go back, and I'll start the siege early tomorrow morning, and I promise that I will break the city within a day, and when the time comes, I'll be skinned and deboned. ”

Liu Hou only said that he would have a way to live, and did not say anything about quitting Lingnan, in fact, he had reserved a way back for himself, but obviously Lu Mao and Zhou Xue didn't hear it.

"You ......" Zhou Xue was obviously very angry, and she was very angry at Liu Hou's shameless behavior of threatening herself with this.

"Miss Zhou, you promised His Royal Highness the Prince, you really admired the Prince, didn't you say that it was your honor to serve the Prince? In that case, it's okay to swear. Lu Mao said as she gave Zhou Xue a sharp look, obviously meaning to let her put the overall situation first and agree to the shameless request of this rogue prince.

Liu Hou felt that it was very boring to tease them like this, the acting skills of these two people were really poor, especially this chick named Zhou Xue, looking at her cold and frosty appearance, no one should enter, where is there a feeling of admiring people and liking people, she is about to become Li Mochou.

In this way, Lu Mao still continues to admire one bite at a time, and serve the pillow one by one, is it really a fool to be a person?

It stands to reason that Soochow is also full of talents, those old foxes are more shrewd than the other, and each is higher than the other, and it is not a problem to send an actor-level character out at will, how can you send these two chicks out this time?

In fact, Liu Hou is not clear about the current situation of Buqi, Dongwu is indeed full of talents, but that is in the Dongwu court. Now in this remote Lingnan, how many available talents are there under Buqi's subordinates.

Even if it is Liu Hou, the prince of a country always feels that there are not enough people and no one is available, let alone a thorn history, and there is no way to find a candidate who can take on this big task among his staff.

This time, Miss Zhou happened to have something to stay in Jiaozhou, and Bu Qi knew that this Miss Zhou had been taught by a stranger since she was a child, and she was strong in martial arts, especially good at stealth and assassination.

And this Lu Mao is Lu Xun's younger brother, he has been famous since he was a child, and he also boasts of his quick thinking and unparalleled eloquence.

However, what people didn't expect was that he usually loves to learn and is smart and clever, but he is still far less talented than his brother Lu Xun.

Just when Liu Hou felt a little excited, he saw Zhou Xue's face flushed, stomped his feet, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I swear ......"

"I swear by the honor of your father." Liu Hou interrupted her.

"Okay, I swear by my father's honor, I Zhou Xue only love you in this life and this life, and I will never betray."

"Good!" Liu Hou happily stroked his palms and applauded. He himself didn't attach much importance to oaths, but he knew that the ancients took oaths very seriously, especially this kind of thing of swearing to his father, which was even more terrible.

What's more, Zhou Yu is not an ordinary person, his status in Dongwu is very high, as her daughter, it is difficult to imagine daring to do something to destroy her father's reputation. Therefore, Liu Hou feels that Zhou Xue's oath has a certain probability of being true.

Of course, in view of his own attitude towards oaths, he did not dare to fully believe in the oaths of others.

"That's what you said personally, you have to do it well, not to mention, this is also related to the reputation of the governor of Zhou. The Governor of Zhou is a man I admire, and I don't want anyone to ruin his reputation. Liu Houdao.

Just now, he showed disdain for the people of Dongwu, and now he admires Zhou Yu, but it can be seen that Liu Hou is good at changing his face, and he is worthy of the name of the prince of Shu.

"Humph!" Zhou Xue replied to him with one word again.

"Okay, okay, since Buqi gave you to me, then you will be my concubine in the future." As he spoke, Liu Hou had already walked up to Zhou Xue again and stroked her hair with his hand. The faint fragrance once again made his heart ripple.

"Since you are a concubine, you have to fulfill the obligations of a concubine." When he said this, his hand had already slid over Zhou Xue's soft hair and caressed her tender face.

The slippery feeling came from his hand again, just like holding a brick in his hand that had just been put into the pot, and there was still warm tofu, which made Liu Hou feel like he couldn't put it down.

But Zhou Xue's body suddenly became stiff, and her face was red to the root of her ears. When Liu Hou's hand continued to slide down to her neck, her hairs stood on end.

"Are you ready to be a concubine? Are you ready to serve the pillow? Also, do you know how to serve a pillow mat? Liu Hou continued to ask, his hand continued to slide, to his shoulder, over his back, and continued to slide towards his waist.

Zhou Xue was speechless about Liu Hou's question, she was now confronted by the strange feeling in her heart, and she didn't care about answering Liu Hou's words at all.

Liu Hou felt as if his hands were slipping over silk, and he could feel a smooth touch through his clothes, without touching a trace of fat, and the feeling was indescribable.

Zhou Xue seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, his whole body trembled, and he felt the scorching temperature on Liu Hou's hand, which seemed to have magical power, making her heart flow with an unprecedented feeling of shame.

In the end, Liu Hou's strange hand landed on Zhou Xue's waist, and here, he touched something that was hard, long, and just thick enough to hold with one hand.

"Why don't I teach you how to do it, like this......" As he spoke, Liu Hou quietly avoided this thing, carefully poked his hand into Zhou Xue's clothes, quietly moved to his waist, grabbed this thing violently, and pulled it out.

Sticking your hand through a girl's shirt was definitely hooliganism in its time.

Although, Liu Hou kept talking and pinching Zhou Xue, and finally said that he wanted to teach her how to do it. But Zhou Xue could stand this, only to see her push Liu Hou away with both hands, and then covered her hands on the placket of her clothes, panting heavily.
