Chapter 160: Mutual Temptation
readx;
What kept Zhou Xingyun calm, why was it greed instead of reason? Because Zhou Xingyun knew very well in his heart that Isabel intended to lead him into a riot, and once he was messy, not only would he not be able to earn a little cheap from the beauty, but he would also be subject to others everywhere in the future. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Isabelle's martial arts are better than him, and Zhou Xingyun's fate as a beast is naturally to die before he can get more benefits.
But then again, Isabelle's analysis is correct, the queen mother has not held the enthronement ceremony for a long time, first, our preparations are not ready, and second, I am afraid that the emperor's sixteenth son will jump off the wall in a hurry.
The little woman also heard that Lord Zhou was a messenger sent by the Heavenly Palace, with the ability to go to heaven and earth, and had taken the Sixteen Emperors to travel to fairyland, so he became his henchman. ”
"Could it be Miss Isabelle, do you want me to introduce you to the Sixteenth Emperor?" Zhou Xingyun's mind calmed down in an instant, because he was keenly aware that Isabel had been testing intentionally or unintentionally since just now, as if he wanted to identify which side he was on from his words, whether he was helping the sixteenth prince to rebel or assisting His Royal Highness the crown prince to ascend the throne.
"Don't misunderstand, my lord, the little girl has no such intention, whether she can meet the sixteenth emperor or not, it doesn't matter to me. Meet Master Zhou tonight, as I said before, I want to be a close friend with you. If the adults can trust the little girl, what will you need help with in the future...... We and other Xuanbing Palace people will be obligated to serve you. It's not the current prince, it's not the sixteenth emperor, it's just for you. ”
"Sister Xuannu has a heart, and if the younger brother is in trouble in the future, she will definitely ask your faction for help. Zhou Xingyun said with a perfunctory smile, Isabelle's speech was so good, he almost believed it, no one is afraid to say the verbal promise, the important thing is whether it can be fulfilled.
Now Zhou Xingyun is cunning and cunning, and he doesn't believe Isabelle's one-sided words when he is killed, unless the beauty promises to him and has a substantive relationship with him, otherwise all verbal promises are nonsense, and only interests are the key.
"Since Lord Zhou doesn't treat me as an outsider, then Isabel is not welcome. There is a little girl who wants to understand, my lord, you are the confidant of the Sixteenth Emperor, but you are the grandson-in-law of Xu Taifu, as far as I know, Xu Taifu is an old minister who helps His Royal Highness the Prince, and the Sixteenth Emperor can be regarded as a great enemy of life and death. Dare to ask you, what is your intention......"
"As far as you can see, what should I do?" Zhou Xingyun threw the question back to Isabelle.
What is the meaning of 'not treating me as an outsider', on what point does Sister Xuannu judge that he does not treat her as an outsider? Except for his paws are a little impolite, and he can't help but press on the hand of the beautiful jade, he is very outsider in all other aspects!
Zhou Xingyun has not yet figured out Issabell's hole cards, and he will never foolishly tell the girl his position in the court, in case the girl is the secret chess of the sixteenth son of the emperor to test his hypocrisy, it will not be the end.
Since the adult asked, the little woman dared to figure it out, and the prince of the Holy Dynasty is known as a generation of benevolent monarchs, and all the people are counting on him to ascend the throne and benevolent government. However, the sixteen emperors were ambitious, colluded with the courtiers, and eyed the emperor's dragon chair, so that the queen mother did not dare to hold the enthronement ceremony, for fear of forcing the sixteen emperors to seek to usurp the throne. ”
Isabel suddenly paused and looked at Zhou Xingyun, as if to confirm to him whether what she said was correct.
"Sister Xuannu, please continue. Zhou Xingyun raised his hand and motioned for the girl to analyze it.
"Today's crown prince is indecisive and the benevolence of women has prompted the sixteen emperors to take advantage of the opportunity to form a party and run private power to the government and the opposition. However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's ascension to the throne as emperor is the will of the emperor, which is justified and desirable in the hearts of all the people. In addition, His Royal Highness's own mother, the Empress Dowager is sitting in Kyoto, so that the two sides are not evenly matched, and no one is sure of winning, so that the Sixteen Emperors do not dare to act rashly, thus creating the current stalemate. ”
It's just that, according to the little woman's shallow view, the seemingly calm competition in the court will soon set off a storm in the city and enter the next stage. Because the big man who is enough to lead to the balance of power between the two sides has been silent, fighting for his career with unbelievable means and promotion steps. Master Zhou, do you think the Minnu analysis is correct?"
"Ah, Sister Xuannu, are you analyzing? I thought you were praising me. I'm so embarrassed by what the big guy said. Zhou Xingyun pretended to be crazy and stupid, although Isabel analyzed a lot at length, but she did not talk about the point, that is, Zhou Xingyun's position, is he helping the Sixteenth Emperor or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Isabel didn't mention it at all.
"The little woman admires Master Zhou very much, and is willing to put her heart into her heart, hoping to help you and help you in your career. It's a pity that Fang Xin is timid and desolate, and Zhou Gongzi always treats me as an outsider. Isabel withdrew her hand, returned to her original seat, no longer let Zhou Xingyun eat her tofu, and hinted at the perverted boy with her actions without tearing her face, she was very dissatisfied with his answer, and she didn't want to pretend to be crazy and stupid.
"Alas, with all due respect, my own people don't have the final say, and action is the key. Miss Isabel is a wise man, and must have understood what I meant. As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and petty officials have little power, and if they are not careful, they will be killed. Besides, the girl's admiration for the little brother really flattered me, but you and I hate to see each other late, we have known each other for less than a day, and many emotional problems still need to be cultivated slowly, unless ......"
Zhou Xingyun got up boldly, walked to Isabel and sat down, his right hand recklessly hooked on the shoulders of the beauty, and slowly stretched out to the beauty that she couldn't grasp with one hand......
"Lord Zhou, there are some things that are not in a hurry, between admiration and love, as you just said, you need to slowly cultivate and transform. Isabel smiled gently and elegantly, but a touch of murderous intent flashed in her eyes, and Zhou Xingyun saw that it was good, and the dog's paw quickly stopped enterprising.
"Miss Isabelle, do you know why I'm so wary? It's not that the bait you throw is bad, it's that the conditions you offer are too generous for me to imagine. The sky will not fall for nothing, the Xuanbing Palace is willing to serve me, and he should always want to reciprocate, and you set up a banquet to invite me, and you didn't get to the point from beginning to end, how dare I treat you as my own? Of course, I am saying this to you now, not for anything else, precisely because I care, cherish, and want to have an in-depth exchange with Miss Isapelle. ”
Zhou Xingyun seemed to say from the bottom of his heart, and said to Isabel sincerely: "Maybe the girl's admiration for me is just a means of negotiation, but the younger brother's love for you is as sincere as it is fake. If Miss Isabel looks down on me and thinks that I am a man of talent who can help you achieve your wishes, you may wish to reconsider the form in which we want to establish a relationship. If we are really a family, whether you want to be the leader of the martial arts alliance or the hegemon, I will spare no effort to support you. Finally, I am impressed by the beauty of Miss Isabelle, and tell you one thing, the information you want to find out, and my position in the court, depends on your needs. ”
Zhou Xingyun either didn't say it, and as soon as he did, he said a lot of words that made people reverie infinitely, which contained a lot of intelligence information, so that Isabel needed time to sort it out.
First of all, Zhou Xingyun released goodwill to Isabelle, he did have the intention to establish a relationship with the beautiful woman, but the two sides were in contact for the first time, and they did not know each other deeply, and many places needed time to run in and consider. Zhou Xingyun didn't know what Isabel wanted at all, so it was impossible for him to unilaterally accept the other party's verbal promise and sell his information to the other party.
Secondly, Zhou Xingyun hinted to Isabel that there are many ways to cooperate with him, and the beauty should think carefully and make a decision according to her own needs. If it was just a small favor, the two would meet tonight, and they would be familiar with each other, and Zhou Xingyun would be obligated to help her.
It is true that Isabel took so much pains to sacrifice her beauty to accompany him for fun, and it was obvious that she had a big deal to entrust Zhou Xingyun, so Zhou Xingyun was very caring, telling the beauty that she had multiple choices, and saying that he was very attentive to her, as long as Isabel was willing to marry him, whether she wanted to be the leader of the martial arts alliance or a prince, as a family, he would support her unconditionally.
In the end, Zhou Xingyun made it clear to the girl that his current position is that he can attack and retreat, whether Isabel needs him to rebel or he needs him to help the prince ascend the throne, he can meet her needs, it depends on whether she can meet him.
"It's not too early, I should go back, otherwise Haolin Shao's room will find out that the supervisor is missing, and I won't be able to deal with it. Zhou Xingyun took advantage of Isabelle's stunned thoughts, and the salty pig hand on the girl's shoulder, which was natural and regarded death as home, swept it away and retracted.
If it were normal times, Isabel would get up quickly to send off guests when Zhou Xingyun's claws fell, so as not to let the pervert succeed. But she was thinking about what Zhou Xingyun said just now, and when she noticed something unusual, she couldn't avoid it......
At the beginning, Isabel reflexively raised her hand, wanting to grab the thief's hand that slashed through the heart, and threw Zhou Xingyun out of the tent fiercely. It's just that the moment she made a move, a command was immediately issued in her mind, which made the girl suppress the anger in her heart and signaled her not to fall out with Zhou Xingyun at this time.
As a result, it became the result that Zhou Xingyun wanted to see the most, Isabelle's cheeks, which were whiter than snow, showed a rare hint of redness, and he accepted his obscene behavior disapprovingly.
"Lord Zhou is far-sighted, the little woman is very admirable, if there is time another day, the adult must appreciate his face and continue the banquet with me. ”
"There will always be a squeeze of time, as long as Miss Isabel thinks carefully and has the heart to ask the officials to meet, even if it is a Hongmen banquet, I will go to righteousness generously. Farewell!"
Zhou Xingyun hugged his fists, quickly turned around and exited the tent, it was really hard to deal with Isabelle, he had been testing and speculating about each other's intentions, but after talking about it for so long, he still didn't know what the purpose of the beauty was.
However, the fact that Isabel took the initiative to show favor to him, openly supporting him, without telling him what she was trying to do, only showed that what the beautiful woman was trying to do was very important and should not be known to outsiders.
Now Zhou Xingyun is only a little confused, where is his use value in Isabelle's heart, and is he qualified to know her goal......
