Chapter 19: 019 Negotiations Fail
019 Negotiations failed
"Why hasn't anyone come yet?" I muttered quietly, and then I saw that there were no servants nearby, and I was more sure of my guess, if Yi Shu was really the royal family and nobles of the Shun Kingdom, then they would definitely not bring too many people with them this time, let alone hire people from here to be people!
Walking out of the living room, through the rockery, the ordinary corridor, the ordinary wing, the whole backyard was all around me, not to mention people, I didn't even see a ghost! Where have these people gone? I had no choice but to go back to the living room and continue to wait.
It was probably a long time, and the shopkeeper didn't know where it came from, "Childe has been waiting for a long time, our master is busy, let me convey that I ask you to come back another day, I'm sorry." ”
"Huh?" I put down the tea in my hand and smiled lightly, "Shopkeeper, it's okay, you can chat with me for a while." I've been waiting for so long, and I'm not afraid to wait a little longer. ”
He was stunned, but he didn't refuse, "I'm a mess old man, what does Childe have to talk to me?"
"Bad old man?" I smiled at him thiefly, and slowly approached, circling around him, "The shopkeeper doesn't look like an old bad old man, this sturdy body, and vigorous steps, at first glance, look like a young man who has practiced excellent light skills!" I reached out and immediately ripped off his fake beard.
I couldn't wait for him to be stunned, I blew off my beard and smiled proudly, "Bad old man, hehe, it's so funny, even your lame disguise technique also wants to sneak into the Mu Mansion and assassinate the empress?"
"Who the hell are you?" a sharp sword flew out of his sleeve and landed around my neck.
I glanced at it disdainfully, and pushed it away, "Don't come to this set, this son never eats this set, if I want to expose you, I can't come to find death!"
"Who the hell are you!" he exclaimed.
I was just about to speak, but Yi Shu walked in from the door and clapped his hands, "It's worthy of Qin Luo, not only is he a good painter, but he is also sharp-eyed!
He walked up to me and waved his hand, and the man put away his sword knowingly, "If Gongzi Qin didn't come to look for death, he must have something to ask me, right?" He picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, raised his phoenix eyes and looked at it, "Why is this tea cold?"
"I'm going to change. The man immediately left in a panic with his tea.
He looked at me again and smiled softly, "Don't be afraid, I won't do this to you." ”
I don't laugh at it, don't you show me how good you are?" "I don't say secret words, this time this woman Muta is going to marry someone else! It is my senior brother who grew up with my childhood sweetheart! So I must save him!"
"It's that simple?" he asked, looking at me suspiciously.
Of course I can't tell him the truth, if I let him know that Yuanzhu is also going to kill the empress, then he will definitely not save him!
"Why should I save him?"
"......I was a little anxious, yes, why did he save him?" but I looked down and smiled grimly, "Just to give you a good excuse to kill the Empress!"
"Oh?" he squinted, listening with interest, and motioned for me to continue.
"Marriage robbery! And then create the illusion of killing the empress by mistake!"
He actually burst out laughing, "Haha! Brother Qin's words are light, so there must be a woman who comes out to be the substitute for the dead lamb, right?"
Oh, how could I not have imagined that someone must come out to be the Lamb who died in place, and that person was myself.
He suddenly stopped laughing and stared at me deadly, "Brother Qin, what are you looking at me like this?"
"I know that even doing so would put you in danger, but what if my status was more special than yours, and I can assure you that if the assassination fails and I fall into the hands of the Empress, she will not focus on you, but only as my hired killers. ”
"What do you mean by that? It's more special than our identity? It seems that you not only know our purpose, but also know our movements!"
"It's not that I'm smart, I just happen to know. There are very few people with the surname Yi in the daughter country, and people like you who have status and money, and who can come and go freely in Wanxianglou, heh, I think you can know as long as you inquire a little. ”
"And then, that doesn't mean anything, it's not surprising that the daughter country is big. ”
"It's not surprising, but coincidentally, Shunguo, which is on par with the daughter country's military strength, the royal surname is Yi, and now the old emperor happens to be seriously ill, if anyone carries the head of the daughter country queen back at this time, I'm afraid who will be the successor, right?"
"So what? How could the prince of Shun take such a risk?"
He pressed and asked, I knew I had guessed correctly, but I just wanted to know how much I knew, so that if I knew more, maybe it would be of use to him.
I sneered, "Of course the prince from Shun will not take this risk, but what if it is from the concubine?" In order to prove that I am not nonsense, I took out a volume of genealogy from my cuff that I found only after rummaging through the cabinets, "It really took me a lot of energy to find this thing, Shun has always been inferior to men, and the old emperor may not be able to count the number of sons, but there is one good thing about Shun, that is, the Son of Heaven has always been the most capable, which is also an important reason why Shun is becoming stronger and stronger." ”
He turned out the genealogy, "Where did you get this thing?"
"You don't have to worry about this, anyway, will you help this favor or not?"
He raised his eyes, slowly got up, and handed me back the genealogy, "What you said is right, I am the prince of Shun Guoshu, and I do have some troops, but I can't help you with your favor, because, this time I went to Mu Mansion to attend the wedding, I didn't plan to assassinate the empress at all!
His last words completely stunned me. So what did he do in his daughter's country?
"Brother Qin, I don't think it's too early, so you should go back early. ”
At the moment when he turned around, I stopped him, "Stop, you are lying, it's not that you don't want to be the emperor, but the time is not ripe, you went to the Mu Mansion this time, just to get to the bottom of it! I want to know how many of the empress's entourage will be, and how deep the martial arts of the guards around you are!"
He paused, didn't turn around, and strode away.
I sighed in disappointment, and on the way back, I was even more disappointed. How on earth should I rescue Yuanzhu? It's better not to seal up my demon power, and just break into the Mu Mansion to rob people!
Pushing the door into the Taoist temple, a red and glamorous wedding card pierced my eyes, I picked it up and looked, "What? Why is the wedding advanced?"
