MTL - Lady Jiao-Chapter 21
Before Shu Ningyu arrived at the Su residence, the sedan chair was stopped by someone. She sat comfortably in the sedan chair, and the beautiful maid beside her peeled the grape skins for her. There are no normal grapes in this season, the grapes are specially grown in the shed. Shu Ningyu was extremely leisurely, and she was a little displeased when she was suddenly interrupted.
An attendant who often waited in front of Su Zhou said: "Your Highness, the young master has something to do today and cannot accompany you to the barracks. I will take you to General Yin's residence."
Shu Ningyu wrapped her arms around the waist of the maid beside her, raised her eyebrows indifferently: "What's the matter, General Su?"
The attendant said: "There is a visitor, some kind of envoy from the Java Kingdom, chattering, the young master is too annoying, and I will send him away later."
Shu Ningyu is not interested in these anymore. She just nodded, and said to the people around her, "Turn around and go."
…
In the Su residence, as soon as Su Zhou entered the hall, he noticed the unfriendly eyes of the visitors.
Su Zhou smiled and said, "His Royal Highness, long time no see."
Pei Jiu's narrow phoenix eyes glanced at Su Zhou coldly: "This king is here to find someone."
"who?"
Pei Jiu took out a painting from his sleeve, shook his hand lightly, and said coldly, "Do you recognize it?"
The woman in the painting has beautiful eyes looking forward, smiling sweetly, with a joy and innocence that Su Zhou has never seen before.
But that face was clearly etched in Su Zhou's heart.
A stern wind swept across, and the portraits were instantly shattered into pieces of paper, which fell down one after another.
Su Zhou flicked his sleeves, smiled softly, and the peach blossom eyes sparkled: "It's Princess Yun'an, His Royal Highness King Chu, she's already dead, and she died in your house, on the third day Years ago, don't you remember?"
"Whether she is dead or not, you know very well."
Su Zhou sat down, took a sip of tea, and said in a cold voice, "Even if you don't die, it's not something you can think about. Princess Yun'an and His Highness the Crown Prince have broken off their engagement, and now they are married and have a baby in their womb." Fetus, why, the king of Chu wants to take it by force?"
Pei Jiu is not someone who is easily fooled, he said: "Yesterday, this lord met Princess Yun'an from a distance. Su Zhou, this lord has already guessed who Ning'er is."
A murderous look flashed across Su Zhou's eyes.
Pei Jiu said: "It's easy for me to meet the emperor of your country, and it's also easy for me to find this person through the portrait. You should carefully consider whether you should take the initiative to bring him to my side, or let me find out by myself."
Su Zhou wanted to kill Pei Jiu two years ago, but he couldn't move, only now did he realize how strong his desire to kill Pei Jiu was.
This person was like a needle stuck in his eye, if he didn't remove it, Su Zhou would not be able to sleep peacefully.
Seemingly aware of Su Zhou's thoughts, Pei Jiu said sarcastically, "Not to mention whether you have the ability to get rid of this king, even if you succeed, it will be a big disaster for your country if you are assassinated. "
With the current situation in Nanqiu Kingdom, it is already unbearable to fight with diplomacy. Pei Jiu was able to have what he is today, naturally he has a group of brave and skilled subordinates, these people are loyal to him, how could Pei Jiu be surprised.
Su Zhou gritted his teeth, and then said with a smile, "King Chu, you're overthinking. She has a special status, even if you have all-powerful means, she won't be willing to go with you. Besides, the current her may not be the one you remember. I can let you meet that person from a distance, but it is absolutely impossible for the two of you to meet or something."
…
Shu Ningyu was doing well in the barracks, but was suddenly called back by Su Zhou.
She also didn't understand what Su Zhou meant.
It wasn't until people around her reminded that the emperor's condition was particularly bad, and she had a low fever all night, that Shu Ningyu thought it was to discuss the succession.
The peach blossoms bloomed just right in spring. Compared to two years ago, Shu Ningyu grew a little taller and looked more stretched. Although she was far behind Su Zhou's height, she was considered tall compared to ordinary women.
She is dressed in a dark red robe with dragons embroidered on it, and her black hair is in half a bunch. Because of the deep makeup, it dilutes the original coquettishness and has a somewhat indistinguishable beauty.
Su Zhou poured a cup of tea: "Sit."
Shu Ningyu was sitting in the pavilion, with the breeze blowing, she squinted her eyes comfortably, and said: "Ten days ago, Shen Guifei wanted to plot against me, so she brought a woman with **** and thin waist, this woman is not ordinary , cousin, listen to me, her legs are so long, as white as jade, and she is delicate and weak, lying in the flowers, just waiting for me to pass, fortunately, I don't like her, and turn to Rong Rong Wang Yin came over..."
She deliberately lowered her voice, her voice was slightly rustling, soothing and feminine, which was pleasant to hear.
Pei Jiu's fingers suddenly closed together.
I haven't seen her for two years, and Ning'er is no longer Ning'er.
From the very beginning, she wove one lie after another. Layers of lies are intertwined, making it hard to tell which is true and which is false.
Su Zhou followed Shu Ningyu's words very cooperatively: "What happened next?"
"When my good brother was in a good mood, I jumped out to grab the bag, haha, he looked so ridiculous at the time, angry and shy, he wanted to tear me up and eat it." Shu Ningyu took a walnut, Throwing it around for fun, she pursed her lips and said, "Concubine Shen Gui was also very angry. At that time, King Rong threatened me and said that I would pay back ten times. Tsk tsk, I spread the matter, and all his subordinates knew about his flirtatious affair." gone."
Su Zhou smiled and said, "Do you still remember Pei Jiu?"
Hearing Su Zhou mention his name, Pei Jiu stopped breathing for a moment.
Shu Ningyu's face remained unchanged, she said: "Remember, he saved my life, so I will remember."
In the beginning, if Pei Jiu had a slightly crooked idea and handed Ning'er over to Su Zhou or Shu Nanzhu, he would definitely get some support and seize the power of the Queen Mother Xing of Beiyuan Kingdom early.
Pei Jiu is a very good person, these past two years, if she had a dream, she would dream of him.
It's a pity that there is no possibility for the two of them, Shu Ningyu can only think about it in her heart.
She said: "For no reason, why did my cousin mention him?"
"He is at the peak of his power now, and his status in Beiyuan Kingdom is extraordinary. Ah Ning, do you want to use his power to kill Shu Nanzhu?"
Shu Ningyu's face darkened slightly.
No matter how shameless she was, she would never do such a thing. She didn't have a chance to repay the favor of saving her life, she didn't want to tie Pei Jiu up with her feelings.
Pei Jiu is a good person, she doesn't want to harm him anymore.
Bowing her head and taking a sip of her tea, Shu Ningyu said, "Cousin, you're beyond your imagination."
"Oh?" Su Zhou said, "Ah Ning, I have taught you that as long as you can achieve your goal, you have to use any means."
"I know, if it can be done, I will definitely do it, but this can't be done." Shu Ningyu said, "Pei Jiu just saved me, the friendship between me and him is not deep, so let him know my identity at risk, It’s not appropriate. It’s better to close the door and handle our own affairs.”
Su Zhou smiled secretly: "It makes sense."
