At this time, Wei Yao and Wang Zebang had quietly retreated out. She and he were the only ones left in the bamboo room that was filled with the smell of bitter herbs, but the door was wide open, so it was not considered a claustrophobic private room.
"Shou, you said in an understatement that you wanted to destroy the country of Ye, but you didn't know that this matter concerns millions of people. Do they have any grudge against you? Do I have any grudge against you?" Zheng Quchi asked him calmly. , even with a smile on his face.
Her soft yet prickly words did not move Yuan Xingzhou's expression at all. Who had ever received mercy for his own suffering? Since no one treats him kindly, why should he show mercy to others?
"The general's wife is righteous and cares about the people of Ye country, even if she knows she can't protect her?" He raised his neck and leaned on her tiredly, his dark and quiet eyes falling on her.
"Before everything starts, people can always tell the strength and weakness based on some experience and speculation, but does the result have to be determined based on the strength beforehand? If this is the case, then no one in the world will say that he can conquer the sky, nor will he. There is a saying that everything depends on people and God decides to make it happen. If you don’t give it a try, who knows the result.”
Zheng Quchi is always tough-talking now, and the situation is stronger than others. She can't bear to hear that Yuan Xingzhou is like an Internet tycoon, so he has to find excuses to stand his ground.
To put it more bluntly, she just had sex with him. If he said one thing, her instinct would be to backhand him two times.
Unexpectedly, her "just and awe-inspiring" appearance gave Yuan Xingzhou a strange and itchy feeling in his twisted mind.
His Adam's apple rolled, and his calm tone could not conceal the undercurrent: "You are really good, why not... you become my princess."
His words were so shocking that Zheng Quchi was stunned on the spot.
She thought to herself that he was indeed someone who wanted to destroy the country, and he couldn't even reason with common sense... She now felt that he was sick, maybe he was really sick.
She didn't understand his brain circuit, but she thought that they would have to get along day and night for a long journey in the future. In order to keep up with his brain circuit, she tried hard to understand it.
"Why do you suddenly want me to be your Crown Princess?"
She is definitely not belittling herself. With her Xiaojiabiyu appearance, she does not look like the type that can make others fall in love at first sight.
"I just feel that a bad person like me deserves a good person like you so that I can survive."
He spoke so seriously, as if he was confessing his true feelings to her, but Zheng Quchi felt goosebumps all over his body.
He said "good" to her a few times, and she regretted that she had been too loyal to Yu Wensheng and Ye Guo, which attracted the covetousness of these perverts.
He is not good, his roots are rotten, and his life has no meaning anymore. She has become the spice in his boring world. She can give him some sweetness, some spiciness, some salt, and some bitterness to make him happy. Live a good and enjoyable life?
It was a good idea from his point of view. Did he ask her if she agreed?
Although she intends to establish a good relationship with him as a superior and subordinate, she is not eager enough to sacrifice herself.
She changed her expression and told him: "Actually, I'm not good at all. Once you get to know me, you'll know that I'm greedy for life and afraid of death, and I also love money. I'm short and like to talk nonsense."
"It's not a shortcoming." After hearing this, he didn't have much reaction. Instead, he found it cute. He wanted to laugh, but was suppressed by the deep sorrow in his heart: "Murder and arson, rob homes and homes, collaborate with the enemy and treason. There are countless such people in this world who are treacherous and treacherous, so what does this mean to you?"
Zheng Quchi: "..."
When she pulled it out according to his standards, she felt as pure as a piece of paper. It was no wonder that he looked down upon her minor flaws.
Zheng Quchi didn't know Yuan Xingzhou well, so she sometimes couldn't tell which of his words were true and which of them were made out of spite to make fun of her, but she still had to make her position clear to him.
She is not a scumbag, and she cannot play like Neptune. Whether he is serious or casual, she has no interest in accompanying him.
"Your Highness, I am a stubborn person. Don't joke with me. I am a married woman and I am not worthy of you at all."
"What if you're not joking?" His thin lips were dry and peeling, and when he pressed them a little, they revealed a blood red color that was about to tear apart. She looked down on him and looked on coldly, but he wanted to make her lose her temper because of his words. Calm down: "I want you. The more you refuse, the more I want you."
Zheng Quchi narrowed his eyes and looked into his dull and hollow eyes, knowing that he was confronting her now.
Also, if a dignified heir to a country wants a woman, even if he just teases her unintentionally at first, but is repeatedly rejected by her, he will suddenly become so self-respectful that he must force her to do so.
She smiled: "What I just said was actually just to be polite. In fact, I am arrogant and look down on ordinary people. If you want me to remarry, no matter what, it cannot be lower than the title of the wife of a general's general in a country. Unless you ask me to be Queen Shangye, otherwise I will keep guarding you forever."
Compared with the general's wife, from a worldly perspective, the prince's concubine is naturally more fragrant, but if you compare Yuan Xingzhou with Yu Wensheng, no matter how blind you are, you will choose Yu Wensheng, even if everyone else Scared to death of him.
Because to a certain extent, he is equivalent to the existence of the Dark Emperor and the Earth Emperor of the Ye Kingdom.
He, Yuan Xingzhou, wanted her to remarry, and that was fine, but what was the point of asking her to remarry? If she had the ability, he could ask her to marry better.
Her main thing is to make him overcome difficulties.
When Yuan Xingzhou came back this time, didn't he just want the Ye country to be destroyed?
If Ye Guo didn't have it, her request would be an impossible goal.
She asked Wei Yao and the others to find out that King Ye and the late queen had always been at odds with each other. After the late queen passed away due to illness and the eldest son also disappeared for a long time, King Ye reacted indifferently to this matter. It can even be said to be indifferent.
Until a few years ago, his body completely collapsed, and after finally giving birth to a young prince, who was still a sick child, his attitude took a turn for the worse.
In recent years, King Ye began to increase his manpower and was obsessed with finding the eldest son. He must have felt that the younger prince was too weak and sick to take on the affairs of the state, and he would not be able to hold on for long. Someone would have to find someone to take care of the mess in Ye State. Only then did he think of his eldest son.
If the eldest prince returns this time, he may not wait until King Ye lasts for a few more years before passing the throne to him. The premise is that the younger prince and his step-queen don't cause trouble.
She didn't know that Yuan Xingzhou had to wait for such a long time.
If he takes revenge on the Immortal Kingdom, then as long as King Ye lives, he will always be the eldest son, and he will still not be able to meet the demands she made.
After she made the request, she saw that Yuan Xingzhou seemed to be thinking about it seriously, and then he said, seemingly truthfully: "...it's not impossible."
Hey, hey, nothing is okay?
Should he let her become Queen Ye, or should he give up and let her continue to be a widow to Yu Wensheng?
Could he be planning some dangerous idea?
Zheng Quchi was too lazy to explore his thoughts, let alone continue this topic with him. She remembered something: "You must be mentally prepared. We will escort you to Shengjing to see King Ye soon. I advise You'd better stop acting rashly and causing trouble."
Hearing this, he didn't feel much resistance. He seemed to be mentally prepared for being caught again this time.
"I won't run away anymore. After being away for so long, it's time to go back and face everything in the past."
He closed his eyes slightly, and the soft and soft light hit his pale snow cheeks, making him feel as harmless and peaceful as a docile lamb at this moment.
He gave people completely different emotions when he opened his eyes and closed them.
"It's best if you think so."
He was still injured. He had just woken up and said so many words to her at once. Now his thin skin showed a faint dark blue color. He must have been mentally exhausted.
Zheng Quchi did not disturb his rest, and when he was about to leave, he heard Yuan Xingzhou ask: "Zheng Quchi, you saved me once, if you encounter the same situation again, will you save me a second time?"
Will you save him a second time?
To be honest, when she called Yu Wensheng to stop, it was not purely to save people. Although she had a kind heart, she did not have such kindness that she would save anyone regardless of good or bad.
Assassins like them who specialize in killing people are not the targets of her kindness.
However, the situation was special at that time, so I saved him as much as I could, and I couldn’t say I wouldn’t regret it later.
But again...no.
She thought so in her heart, but she said without conscience: "Of course I will."
One moment and another, he was an assassin at the beginning, but now he is the eldest son of Ye Kingdom. As long as she is not stupid, she knows how to speak wisely to protect herself.
Of course, she always just looked silly.
In fact, she is very good.
After hearing this, Yuan Xingzhou was indeed very satisfied, and the consequences of his satisfaction were——
"You treat me...very well." He was really moved. When he opened his eyes, he was reflected in the warm light outside the window, like a touch of golden light and jade, shining brightly.
Zheng Quchi suddenly had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, his next sentence immediately petrified her.
"My prince will carefully consider your request. If I become king in the future, you must be the Queen of Ye Kingdom."
——
Zheng Quchi walked out in a daze. Wang Zebang and Wei Yao were standing and waiting in the fence yard. Seeing that she didn't look right, they immediately stepped forward and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
Zheng Quchi raised his head: "He wants to rebel."
Wang Zebang and Wei Yao looked incredulous: "...rebellion? Are you saying that the eldest prince wants to rebel?"
Zheng Quchi didn't care whether they believed it or not. She was thinking: "Yes, our trip is undoubtedly to send back an enemy to King Ye. Looking at him like that, I can imagine..."
King Ye had done such inhuman things to the two of them. Now he came back, not to be a loving father and a filial son, but to take revenge on the first born son.
It’s hard to say what comes next. Everyone understands it. The question is, does this matter have any impact on them?
Why did she suddenly feel... Ever since the incident with the road bandits, they seemed to have fallen into a huge whirlpool that they could not escape from. When they realized it, the more they crawled towards the edge to escape, the more they were attracted by an invisible force. Pulling deeper.
The point is, it's as if she feels this way alone, and Wang Zebang and Wei Yao are still out of the situation.
"Madam, the matter between the king and the crown prince is complicated. It involves the former queen and her mother's family. We cannot interfere."
Who wants to interfere?
She wished she could close her eyes and see nothing.
But no, she realized as soon as she left the house that the Prince of Renmin University was interested in her. He was obviously interested in her ex-husband's inheritance.
By marrying her, doesn't it mean that she will inherit the inheritance left to her by her ex-husband?
Of course, this was his idea. As long as she was strong-willed and never gave in, it was expected that he, a powerless prince who had returned from the country, would not be able to defeat her, a powerful general's wife with a heavy army at her disposal.
It's just...she hesitated.
"No, that's not what I mean. What I mean is...this King Ye will definitely end up either having a stalemate or falling out with us. There can't be a third, better outcome. And can he be one of ours?" Trump card?"
Also, thinking further, King Ye’s current body is simply unable to lead the country of Ye to take off, and can the young and powerful Yuan Xingzhou be a new hope for the rise of the country of Ye?
Madam's words shocked both of them, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be reasonable, but, "Madam... didn't you just say that His Highness was going to rebel?"
Zheng Quchi immediately asked, "Why did he rebel?"
As soon as the words came out, she realized that she was speaking too loudly. She glanced into the room and waved, indicating that they should leave the medicine house first and talk again when they were farther away.
When they arrived at a place where they could talk with peace of mind, Zheng Quchi said to them: "Why do you think His Highness the Crown Prince rebelled? It must be that King Ye did something to make him not even want to be the Crown Prince. He followed a group The guard with the sword quietly fled the palace. Because of hatred and frustration, he wanted revenge and wanted to destroy King Ye's country to vent his hatred."
They saw that the lady spoke eloquently and impassionedly as if she had experienced it herself.
Wei Yao nodded and agreed with her conclusion: "Madam, do you think it's appropriate to let a person like this, who is filled with only hatred, replace King Ye as the supreme power in Ye country?"
This was one of the reasons why Zheng Quchi was hesitant.
"He does have a lot of problems with him. He is vengeful and has a melancholic temperament. They are full of negative emotions. And after he has taken revenge, he usually has no desire to live."
She could feel that he was not too persistent in his will to live. After all, he only lived for one thing - revenge: "I think that when the time comes, we will set a new life goal for him and guide him. There is still the possibility of manipulation.”
Wang Zebang understood what she meant: "Madam, are you planning to side with the eldest prince?"
"You definitely can't stand on King Ye's side, but staying neutral is a bit passive. If you don't plan for some things in advance, you will only be caught off guard when the crisis is really approaching." Her thoughts were very simple, and she didn't want to think about the original situation. He stood at attention and was beaten.
