Alessio rubbed his forehead and sighed.
Misstep.
Why was he talking to the male insect in the same tone as he usually negotiated with the hostile female insect when he had nothing to do? Now it's good, this guy is a little short on strength, and I don't know how he can coax him before this little ancestor is willing to put away his tears and talk to him properly.
Alessio really has nothing to do with Tang wine.
Male insects have always been precious, and they are considered superior. It is not that Alessio has never come into contact with higher-level male insects, but they almost always behave arrogant and noble. How can anyone be like Tang Jiu, who will show weakness at any time and cry at any time? Did it just fall off?
The usually cold-blooded military female had a bitter look on her face, really at a loss.
And because I really have no experience in coaxing male insects, I can only say those few words of apology in a dry, back-and-forth manner: "...I really know that I was wrong, can you forgive me?"
Tang Jiu was not happy.
"You are not sincere at all!" The little male worm put on a kitten face and muttered: "I am sincerely talking to you, but what about you? You are not sincere at all, you just talk nonsense. You bully, you were just trying to scare me!"
Alessio: Dare not speak.jpg
What else could he say?
All the mistakes were his fault. It was he who underestimated the little ancestor. Who would have expected that the little male insect is usually so arrogant and arrogant that he can confidently command the insects. He is also very good at this method of coquettishness and showing weakness, Ale Theo was really unconvinced.
No matter what, it's a good thing that the other party is still willing to pay attention to him at this time.
At least this means that Tang Jiu's attitude has relaxed, he has no intention of cheating, and he still intends to negotiate with him seriously.
Alessio felt a little calmer and had some confidence in his heart.
The older military female stretched out her hand and touched the little male's head very gently, like some kind of secret test, or like the clumsy comfort of some large carnivore. When she noticed that the other party had no rejection reaction, Ah Lecio then stroked him from the top of his hair to the back of his neck like a cat, and finally patted him gently on the back.
"Don't be afraid."
The military female looked down at him and smiled softly. Her expression was clearly the same as before, but it had an inexplicable aura that made the insect heart palpitate, as if the female insect sitting here was no longer Alessio. , but the Klein who stood at the pinnacle of imperial power and made all enemies fearful and awe-inspiring.
"I'm still sitting here fine."
"I promise you, as long as I am here, things will not get to that point, and your female father and your brother will be fine too."
It must be said that at this time, Alessio's unreasonable strength actually gave Tang Jiu an indescribable confidence.
The little male insect looked eagerly: "Really?"
"certainly."
Alessio laughed, but his tone was very casual: "As long as I don't die, it will not be Tariq's turn to take charge of this military department, and Howard's claws will not be able to reach into my territory. Everything you fear will only happen." It’s a nightmare that will never happen.”
Tang Jiu thought about it and felt it made sense.
After getting the protection he wanted, the little male stopped crying.
Not only did Tang Jiu stop crying - he almost performed a face change for Alessio. Almost at the same moment that Alessio's comforting words came to an end, the little male worm skillfully put away his will. The expression of whether to cry or not was replaced by a cold and reserved face of a standard aristocratic male insect.
Alessio:…
Very good, this is very Tang wine.
The older military female shook her head helplessly. Seeing that Tang Jiu's mood had returned to stability, he brought back the original topic and said softly: "Okay, now can you tell me what you want to do?"
Tang Jiu said nothing.
The little male lowered his head, seeming to be thinking about a very important decision. There was even an expression of struggle on his face, which made Alessio's curiosity burst out. Could it be that the little liar was really going to bleed this time? Are you going to spend a lot of money to buy him?
Then he heard the little male insect say sonorously and forcefully: "Let's get married!"
Before Alessio could react, the little male sat up straight again and said solemnly: "As long as we get married, Fleming can legitimately join the Reformists in the name of marriage. You can also write it in your will in advance. Write my name on it, so that when you die, all your property will be mine, and your military headquarters can be inherited by Fleming."
"When the time comes, even if Tarik and Howard join forces, they will not be able to shake Fleming's position."
After he finished speaking, he felt quite proud, as if he thought he had come up with a great decision. He raised his chin and looked at the military female for praise.
Alessio:?
He raised his eyebrows and stared at the male insect in front of him with unclear meaning.
The latter tilted his head and looked back confidently.
Alessio was silent.
He was really silent.
Whenever he thought Tang Jiu was outrageous enough, the other party would always do something even more outrageous, telling him that he was wrong and that Tang Jiu could really be even more outrageous.
how to say.
It’s not that Alessio doesn’t know that out of the ten highly privileged families in the empire, ten of them are waiting for him to die. Then they will pounce on him like wild beasts, eat his corpse, and compete for all the rights, status, and status he has left. Network resources.
But fantasy is fantasy, and no insect dares to put such an idea out in the open.
Seeing that Alessio's death was approaching, even the military's sworn enemies, the House of Representatives, had honestly put away the idea of confronting the military, for fear that the imperial marshal would be in a bad mood and casually follow him. Choose a lucky family from the House of Representatives to be buried with you.
And what about Tang wine?
Not only did he dare to think, he also dared to ask, but he didn't even tell Alessio explicitly: You are going to die anyway, so why not give me all your "inheritance".
Listen.
Is this something a normal insect can say?
Alessio twitched the corner of his mouth and asked sincerely: "It's very good, so what benefits can I get from it?"
The little male blinked innocently and said tentatively: "So while you are still alive, you will still have a young and beautiful male like me by your side?"
Alessio commented: "Sounds like some kind of hospice service."
"Right!" The little male insect was quite proud: "In this way, do you feel that the last days of your insect life are not so difficult?"
"how about you?"
Alessio said quietly: "When I die, you can take my money and marry the next female queen, right?"
Tang Jiu poked the cakes on the plate with his fork and muttered: "Well, then I'm only eighteen years old. I'm so young, you can't let me stay a widow for you for the rest of my life, right?" As he spoke, he also He puffed up his chest and looked confident.
Alessio almost laughed at him.
I bet he is just a pure tool bug, right?
Anger arises from the heart, and evil arises from the courage.
Alessio smiled, but no matter how you looked at it, there was a hint of evil in it. Tang Jiu instinctively had a bad premonition. He stood up and was about to run away, but he was grabbed by the military female's big hand and easily put into her arms. She was pressed into her arms and pinched her face with her hands.
Poor Tang Jiu was trapped in the arms of the military female, and her fair and delicate face was rubbed and touched, but she couldn't struggle. She could only raise her head helplessly and glare at the other party angrily.
Well.
It actually feels pretty good...
The touch on his hand was so good that Alessio squeezed it and couldn't help but become a little distracted. Tang Jiu seized this opportunity and struggled out quickly. He shrank to the opposite side like lightning, hugging himself distressedly while looking at him warily. Looking at him.
Alessio had no intention of continuing.
Originally, he only intended to make trouble with the other party and teach the little male insect who knew the world a little lesson. But when he saw the obvious red marks on Tang Jiu's cheeks, he paused for a moment and couldn't help but reflect: Was the force he just struck really that strong?
I couldn't help but ask more: "Does it hurt?"
Of course it doesn't hurt.
Alessio's hand was very gentle, but Tang Jiu himself has a constitution that leaves marks easily, so the cheek he pinched looked a little pitiful - but in this case, Tang Jiu would not explain it to the other party, so he would have to let Alessio Lexio should feel guilty for a while!
I was thinking this in my heart, but my face was full of holes: "Promise me I won't be in pain!"
Alessio:…
He took a deep breath and said calmly: "Tang wine."
Being called by his first name for the first time, the little male insect was surprised and took two steps back nervously, and said warily: "You, what do you want to do? I'm warning you, you will attack His Excellency the Holy Land without permission. It's illegal to do anything! It's okay before, but if you come here again, I'll... I'll..."
The momentum that had been barely built up was once again broken by the male insect.
Alessio didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He sighed resignedly and stopped making excuses. He said bluntly: "Don't you think your deal is outrageous? If you do this, you and Tariq and others will stare at me and wait. What difference does it make if you divide my worm?"
Tang Jiu muttered: "Why is there no difference? The difference is huge!"
The military female smiled: "Well, it's quite big. He wants to share me with Howard. Do you want a worm to swallow me whole? Can't you tell, you have a pretty big appetite?"
"You're still nodding?!"
Alessio raised his eyebrows and made a gesture of coming to pinch him again. The little male was so frightened that he hurriedly ducked back. While dodging, he yelled angrily: "Only my female can touch me! You!" Does this insect have any sense of proportion?"
I hate females who have no sense of boundaries!
Alessio really had nothing to do with him.
You were talking to him about business and he interrupted you. This little rose with thorns is like a stone stuck in the middle of a river. Conventional speech and negotiation skills are like an endless river. It will always get stuck in front of him before it can move on.
All the good momentum has been lost, so how can we talk about it?
Alessio was really helpless: "Baby, look at your overlord clause. Is this acceptable to a normal insect?"
"Why is this abnormal?"
When he said this, Tang Jiu was not happy either. The little male worm stretched his fingers and counted them one by one: "Look, when you were alive, we were the most solid allies. Fleming would give the green light to a series of decisions made by the military. You can definitely do it during this period." , do everything you want to do.”
"If I fell in love with you, you wouldn't die."
"As a reformer, Fleming is still Klein's best friend. We will own everything together and share the highest throne of the empire."
"And if you die—"
Having said this, Tang Jiu paused almost imperceptibly, then he raised his head, his blue eyes seriously looking at the military female in front of him: "Fleming will also accept your assets and inherit your last wish. Lead the reformers in the military to continue along the path you opened."
Inherit his last wish, continue along the path he opened...?
The military female's heart was slightly frightened like stagnant water.
Alessio didn't speak, but he had a thoughtful expression on his face, seriously assessing the feasibility of the deal in his mind.
Tang Jiu's promise seemed ethereal and lacked restraint, but Alessio also understood Fleming.
Unlike upstart families like the Howards, the Flemings can be regarded as one of the oldest highly privileged families in the empire. They can continue their glory from generation to generation, relying not only on the blessings of their ancestors, but also on each generation. The owner’s keen judgment on the situation.
As long as the family's glory can be continued, it makes no difference to such a great noble whether he is a conservative or a reformer.
in turn.
If Fleming really wanted to annex, take over, and gather all the forces left behind after his death, they would represent the Reformers in their words and deeds, no matter whether Fleming was willing or not, even if they were just pretending. Confront conservatives. Only in this way can they truly win the military female's heart and become the de facto new masters of the military department.
Thinking about it this way, this deal doesn't seem to be too bad?
Alessio thought.
With a new master insect like Fleming who is insidious and cunning, when he dies due to a mental riot, the life of the idiots in the military department will not be too sad. Everything he has worked so hard to manage can be preserved and continued, and we can still watch To the way those decadent and conservative old guys are so angry...
As for himself.
The military female's eyes moved up slightly, and finally landed on the little male opposite, who was holding his chin and staring eagerly at him.
Before I die, I won't be bored if I have such a big, noisy baby by my side.
Thinking of this, Alessio already made a decision in his mind.
Of course, decisions are decisions, and Alessio, who is as scheming as he is, does not have the habit of showing emotion or anger.
He folded his arms and said with a half-smile: "You have nothing to lose. No matter whether I live or die, I have to share all Klein with you. As for you, no matter whether I live or die, you can get it." Everything about Klein is a guaranteed profit, right?"
Tang Jiu swallowed and took a step back carefully, but he was very unconvinced: "Then if you can survive, I will also share everything about Fleming with you... Aren't you going to die? So what can I do?"
Alessio held his chin as if thinking.
The little male looked at his expression carefully and made sure that the military female would not suddenly attack his face, nor did she show any signs of getting angry. He suddenly felt confident and bold again:
"Don't hesitate, it's a win-win situation for us."
"Promise quickly, promise quickly! Promise quickly!"
"A beautiful and cute male like me will never find a store after passing through this village!"
Alessio wanted to sigh again.
A good negotiation, why did it end up like this?
Thinking like this, Alessio obviously didn't notice the slightly curved corners of his mouth. He lowered his eyes and looked at Tang Jiu, who was already lying on the table, resting his chin on the back of his hands, looking at him from bottom to top, like a cat squatting on the table.
He exhaled.
"alright, you win."
The little male insect blinked: "Do you agree?"
Alessio looked at him: "Yes, I agreed."
Great!
The young male let out a small cheer to celebrate his first successful negotiation. He happily took a bite of the golden pastry. The soft and sweet taste accompanied by the juice filled every corner of his tongue, making him squint with satisfaction. Eyes aroused.
After finishing his favorite dessert, he wiped the corners of his mouth again, and then said seriously: "The deal is established, okay, now you can propose to me!"
Alessio slowly typed out:?
As if seeing the military female's confusion, Tang Jiu said matter-of-factly: "A deal is a deal, and an engagement is an engagement. These are two different things. If you want to get engaged to me, you must propose to me first, right? How can you get engaged directly without proposing? Does that make sense?"
Alessio held his forehead: "...You really didn't suffer at all."
Tang Jiu raised his chin: "Of course!" and urged him: "Hurry up, hurry up! I haven't been proposed to by a female insect yet!" Expectation was written on his face.
Having said that, of course Alessio would not refuse this final scene.
"I see……"
Facing the little male's expectant gaze, he smiled helplessly. After thinking quietly for a moment, he slowly stood up from his seat and solemnly knelt down on one knee in front of the male.
What does marriage mean to the advanced Zerg species?
Alessio, who had long been prepared to die, had never considered this issue. However, at this moment, recalling the conversation Tang Jiu had just had with him in his mind, and looking at the clear and pure eyes of the male insect, he had never had such experience. The Imperial Marshal suddenly understood the answer without any teacher.
It's shared.
Share the glory of the past, share all the interests of the present, and all the risks of the future, and become each other's most intimate and absolutely trustworthy comrades in this world. Even if one party dies, they will continue to move towards the common and established goal.
Alessio smiled lightly.
Then he raised his head, stared at the male insect in front of him, and spoke slowly:
"I, Alessio Klein, swear by the medal on my shoulder that from now on, my wealth will be shared with you, my glory will be with you, we will share risks and joys, and my status will be It is your glory, my rights are your weapons, by my side, you can always take it for granted and be confident."
"Are you willing to be my hero, my strongest ally, and go on with me?"
