Regarding Chen Xueying's proposal, Lu Zhao did not agree, but just shook his head and said: "I didn't even solve the civil strife, and just wanted to kill the Crown Prince of Dayan. This is also thankless. But you, the eldest brother, came here with great power, so you have to treat him well." he."
"What's the plan?" Chen Xueying asked him.
The man raised his fingers at her with a slight smile on his face.
She moved forward, but her ear was flicked. She immediately reached out and scratched it.
A few days later, negotiations between the two countries resumed, but of course the talks were not smooth.
Chen Bairui felt that the prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty had lost his memory, and other princes were fighting for the throne of the prince. The country was in turmoil, and it was impossible to fight a war at this time, so he wanted to take the opportunity to bite off a piece of meat to make Dayan worry about internal and external troubles.
On the Northern Qi side, here comes the second prince.
Lu Qingfeng had finally snatched the job from the old man, so he naturally wanted to perform well. If he came to negotiate, not only did he not benefit Bei Qi, but he even allowed Da Yan to leave in a grand manner, then he would be in vain.
In order to demonstrate his ability and make Lu Wuji think more highly of him, so that he can become a favorable asset for him to become the prince in the future, the conditions he proposed were more stringent than before.
When both parties put their conditions on the table for negotiation, each side thought the other was crazy. How could they have the nerve to make such a request?
The two sides fought vigorously, but after several days, there was no improvement, and they were obviously not prepared to give in easily.
But in private, the people serving around him defeated Ku Shui, and they were obviously a little overwhelmed.
They are for peace talks, and it's not enough to just talk about conditions that the other party doesn't agree with. It's just talking nonsense to each other, and it's useless.
Chen Xueying paid close attention to their negotiations and was extremely happy when she heard the news.
"Lu Qingfeng is really bad. This is the territory of Beiqi. Why should he be polite to Chen Bairui, a foreigner? If he is not satisfied, he will just take action. Chen Bairui's arrogant attitude still does not recognize his identity, thinking that this is a big country. Yan's Wangjing? Let him have his temper."
Chen Xueying clicked her tongue twice and couldn't help but judge: "This is just a bastard!"
Lu Zhao was amused by her words and couldn't help but said: "It's true that there is a lot of chaos in the family. On weekdays, when we fight against brothers, one of them can stand up to the other two. But when it comes to others, he becomes timid."
The couple got together and muttered a few words.
After Chen Xueying said something bad about Lu Qingfeng, she suddenly felt refreshed, and then she asked again: "You brothers often get together. Although we often fight, you must know him well. Why did he act like this? He provoked me before. Even when you are there, you don’t look like a weak person who can be bullied.”
"He has been mentally disturbed by the old man. I have been the prince all these years, and the old man has always been dissatisfied. He sees it in his eyes and remembers it in his heart, so he finally takes the opportunity to show off. He must be using me as a negative example. ."
"If it were me, if Chen Bairui dared to be so ignorant, I would have struck him with a knife. Since he doesn't know the rules, I would teach him some rules. But if the second child wants to do the opposite, he will follow the routine of civilized dialogue. Son."
Lu Zhao made some guesses. This was not a groundless speculation. The brothers all lived in the shadow of Lu Wuji, which had an impact on their respective personalities.
Lu Zhao was indifferent, and at the same time
He is also stubborn and always maintains his wolf nature.
Since Lu Qingfeng was a child, he was not only tortured by his father, but also lost to his brother in every battle, so he thought more about it.
Once you think too much, it is easy to act cautiously and cautiously.
"Civilized dialogue, Chen Bairui is one of those people who will start a mill if given some color. If Lu Qingfeng doesn't beat him up, the peace talks will not be able to advance at all. But what I'm curious about is, does the old pervert really like the prince who has this kind of civilized dialogue?" She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and asked in a low voice.
Lu Zhao thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"The reason why you call him an old pervert is because he behaves strangely and illogically."
"You have been working for him for so many years, but you still can't figure out his thoughts?" she asked again.
The man sneered: "It is not difficult to guess his thoughts, otherwise all the palace servants serving him would have been killed long ago. But after becoming his son, even if he guessed his thoughts, he would not follow his own rules. He will do what he wants to do, and will even deliberately do the opposite of what he wants to do in order to torture us, even if it is something he hates. The main character is that as long as we are unhappy, he will feel comfortable."
When Chen Xueying heard these words, she couldn't help but curl her lips and roll her eyes several times.
What a disgusting old pervert.
Lu Zhao saw her frowning and looking like she was about to vomit. She was obviously disgusted, so he couldn't help but pat her back, soothing her gently.
"Don't mention him, tell me something that makes you happy. The time is almost here, the show is about to begin."
He leaned into her ear and told her his plan, which immediately aroused Chen Xueying's interest.
At night, Chen Xueying had already undressed her hair and was about to take a rest when suddenly there was a dog barking outside, and several guards were outside to investigate the situation.
Suddenly the window was opened and a person rushed in quickly.
The palace servants waiting around opened their mouths to shout, but the man immediately said: "Don't shout, he is one of our own."
Everyone looked over and saw Cen Ruhai standing in front of them.
Chen Xueying narrowed her eyes and looked him up and down. Cen Ruhai was wearing a black night suit. He didn't look like a good person, he clearly looked like a thief.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. The prince has sent a small minister here for urgent matters. There are people outside to investigate, so it is not convenient for me to slap you."
When Cen Ruhai saw her gaze focused on his face, he already guessed what she was thinking and immediately took the initiative to report the situation.
Just at this time, a guard asked through the window: "Princess, a thief just passed by, and my subordinates are trying their best to hunt him down. Did he disturb you?"
"Wei Zeng, you guys should look elsewhere, I'm going to rest." She raised her voice slightly and sent the people away.
When he heard the footsteps outside fading away, Cen Ruhai breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as the people left, he immediately knelt down and said urgently: "Princess, please rescue the Crown Prince quickly. The peace talks between the Crown Prince and the second prince of Northern Qi have not gone smoothly a few days ago, but he has bribed the palace servants around Lu Qingfeng. , I talked it through to the second prince, saying that there would be a turn for the better, but who knew that after meeting, before we even got down to business, the second prince suddenly turned against him, and a group of assassins jumped out and came directly towards the prince."
"The guards tried their best to protect them and succeeded in breaking through. However, the Northern Qi thieves shouted to catch the thieves and said that Dayan was out.
He went back on his word and bribed the assassin to seriously injure Lu Qingfeng. Now that Liaocheng is under martial law, his subordinates stayed outside the city to provide support and could not contact His Highness the Crown Prince at all. As he was really desperate, he thought of asking the princess for help. "
Cen Ruhai's tone was urgent, almost breathless, and it was obvious that the situation was critical.
Chen Xueying's attitude was not hurried. After listening, she just raised her eyebrows.
After a while, she spoke slowly: "Do you have ten sentences?"
"What?" Cen Ruhai didn't know what she meant.
"The two paragraphs you just said should be completed in ten sentences, but they need to be slapped ten times." Chen Xueying explained patiently.
Cen Ruhai was immediately anxious. How long had it been? Her Royal Highness was still thinking about slapping her. He wanted to rush forward and shake her awake.
"Princess, if you can save His Highness the Crown Prince, your subordinates will kneel here and slap you as many times as you want. Even if you slap him alive, I will be willing to do so."
When Chen Xueying heard his curse-like words, she couldn't help but sneer and said in a disdainful tone: "Your life is nothing, I don't care about it. As for the eldest brother, he is the crown prince of Dayan, the future true dragon emperor, Dragon Qi Jia Shen, for this crisis, it will definitely be turned into good fortune, and there is no need for me to intervene, so you don’t have to worry."
When hearing such an outrageous answer, Cen Ruhai's brows furrowed in complete disbelief.
"Princess, are you really willing to die without saving me?"
"What do you mean by not rescuing someone in the face of death? Liaocheng was sealed off. Even Chen Bairui, as the crown prince of Dayan, can't do anything. I'm just a princess of Dayan. What can I do? Tell me, how can I save him?" She asked coldly.
"But you are the Crown Princess of Northern Qi. If you want to lift the seal, you must have a way."
"Huh? Have you remembered that I am the Crown Princess of Northern Qi? It's a pity that the Crown Prince of Northern Qi has lost his memory. He might be killed by some of his resentful brothers soon. What else can I, a widow, do? , you are harming me!" Chen Xueying remained unmoved.
Seeing Cen Ruhai open his mouth, obviously wanting to say something else, Chen Xueying rolled her eyes.
"Don't say any more, or I will ask people to come in and arrest you. In this special period, if I don't care about slapping you, you should be grateful, but you can't push yourself too far." She said directly. Interrupted, not letting him speak.
Cen Ruhai glanced at her solemnly, turned around and jumped out through the window. Soon he heard the sound of pursuit outside, which obviously alerted the guards.
When the room returned to quiet, the bed curtain was lifted up, and Lu Zhao leaned on the bedside, looking at her leisurely.
Chen Xueying waved her hand and asked everyone in the palace to retreat.
"It's not the behavior of a gentleman to hide here and eavesdrop." She said solemnly.
"Your private meeting with the ministers of Dayan was not the fault of the Crown Princess. You are here to supervise." He said confidently.
Chen Xueying rolled her eyes directly, "What are you going to do with Chen Bairui? Kill him?"
Lu Zhao shook his head: "If you don't kill, if Chen Bairui dies, even if Dayan is a coward, he is afraid that he will declare war. If the prince of a country is killed, even if Dayan values civility over military affairs, he will still have to make a statement. Then the two sides will fight. , we really fall into internal and external troubles, which is not a situation I want.”
"Before I ascend the throne, Northern Qi cannot fall into a state of war."
When he said the last sentence, he looked at her seriously, his eyes full of determination.
Obviously, he has directly exposed his ambition.
Chen Xueying raised the corners of her lips and smiled gently at him: "Waiting for good news."
Lu Qingfeng stayed in Liaocheng for diagnosis and treatment, and all the doctors in the city were invited.
This news was rushed to the Northern Qi Palace. When Lu Wuji saw it, he was so angry that he tore up the urgent letter.
"Idiot, idiot, negotiating with a sick cat, you can make yourself unconscious, but you don't know the whereabouts of Prince Dayan at all. Where did this coward come from? Is this my seed? Could it be that I hugged him by mistake?" !
