421: Work hard to complete KPI (1) [Happy Children’s Day]
Shen Tang was not surprised by Wang Ji's change.
From the fact that the other party deceived Shiwu Messenger and pushed the child in her belly to Zheng Qiao in order to make a living, it can be seen that this woman cherishes her life, and the bargaining chip for her survival is based on lies.
As long as it is a lie, it will be exposed one day...
Her little life is in danger!
It is natural to find another more reliable driftwood, or even use the driftwood to climb ashore.
The only thing I didn't expect was that Wang Ji made up her mind so quickly. Shen Tang thought it would take a while.
It's not that Shen Tang is looking forward to the so-called alliance, but Wang Ji has been in a hurry during several attempts, and is not careful enough about Shen Tang's "background". She dares to reveal her true face when she is not sure - I don't know whether to say that she is seriously ill. Even if you go to the doctor randomly, you still have a keen eye to recognize a hero, and you will find a reliable ally as soon as you look for it.
Shen Tang said calmly: "Looking for a way out? Your Highness Wang Ji is too high-minded about your subordinates..."
Wang Ji's face turned slightly pale, but she still said calmly: "I... no, I can see that there is something wrong with these tribute girls who donated to Shiwu. Although I don't know what Mr. Shen wants to do, I can be sure that you will not They were pushed into the fire pit!"
If you have this intention, why did you kill ten Shiwu personal guards last night and cause trouble with the Shiwu envoys?
Isn’t Shen Tang afraid that he will never be able to go back?
Wang Ji always felt that there was something wrong with these tribute girls.
Shen Tang only said: "But you are the princess who is getting married."
She avoided the question of "a thousand tribute girls" and pointed out Wang Ji's current identity. She was one of the marriage partners between the two countries, not a dispensable tribute girl.
Ask Shen Tang for help. How can Shen Tang help?
Killing Shiwu and taking people away?
Shen Tang doesn't have this ability yet.
If Shen Tang cannot bring enough benefits to match these risks, what benefits can Shen Tang gain by helping the other party?
She is not the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva, and she does not have the noble sentiments to sacrifice herself for others. She smiled and said: "Does Wang Ji know the risks of this matter?"
Gritting his teeth, he said: "No matter what Mr. Shen wants, as long as I can live to do it, I will definitely help you achieve it!"
If you want people to do things, you have to give them benefits.
Wang Ji naturally understands this truth.
Because from the time she became sensible, every move and every thought she made was for the purpose of increasing her own chips.
As the son of a maid, she has lived in a scheming inner house since she was a child. She has no protection from a favored mother, and no sympathy from her biological father. The mistress is not mean but she only treats her as a face-saving person. The slaves are most dependent on others, and they deprive themselves of their own money. Spending money, all kinds of neglect and perfunctory in life, they are all ridiculed in secret. The only person she can rely on is herself.
rack your brains to plan your future.
For this reason, she did not hesitate to get pregnant before marriage, and she had a substantial relationship with the only son of an official whom she was extremely optimistic about. Although the other party was also a commoner, the advantage was that he was an only son. All his family property would belong to him in the future, and his background would not be much different from her own.
It is almost certain that she will become the head wife.
Who would have thought that she would find someone who was conferred the title of Queen!
If he didn't have this evil obstacle in his belly, even if he married into a distant wilderness as a mascot-like queen, as long as he kept his status low and flattered his future husband, life would not be too bad.
If the two countries are friendly, the future will be prosperous. If not, how can Shiwu lose a mouthful of food for himself?
Unfortunately, she had no chance to deal with this evil obstacle.
Now she just wants to live. The bargaining chip she has now may not be able to impress this Jun Shen!
Shen Tang was surprised: "Oh?"
She was curious now.
"Then what can your Highness help me?"
Wang Ji said: "How about setting up defenses among the Shiwu tribes?"
Shen Tang: "..."
This is the king's trump card.
"How come you have this thing?"
This kind of secret among secrets, let alone the Geng Kingdom, only a few people within Shiwu can access it.
Wang Jiyijie's wedding mascots have no channels or qualifications to contact them. But judging from the other party's demeanor, it doesn't look like a bluff. Are you not afraid of having your head screwed off if you deceive her?
Wang Ji said: "This can't be said."
Shen Tang: "Do you think I would be interested in this?"
Wang Ji asked back: "Is there any person with lofty ideals who doesn't hate the crimes Shiwu committed in Longwu County? How can you ensure that the fate of the previous county governor will not fall on you? How can such a blood feud be able to Tolerate?"
After finishing her words, the look she looked at Shen Tang also contained a hint of subtle inquiry and questioning - as if she was silently asking, "Have you finished planting yet?" If Shen Tang had been thinner and less determined, he would have really been beaten by her. Angry.
However, she has the thickest skin all over her body.
"Guarding Yonggu Pass, governing Longwu County, and not putting the people in trouble due to whims, this is the duty of a county guard. As for the other things, it depends on future opportunities." Shen Tang looked as usual, which made the originally confident man Wang Ji had no idea, "But, if the defense deployment is true..."
Under Wang Ji's eyes that rekindled hope, Shen Tang said: "It's not like you can't gamble once."
well--
Gambling should be left to Kang Shi.
"...Therefore, Your Highness Wang Ji, I need to see the 'down payment' you gave me before I can feel completely at ease."
When Shen Tang left the luxury carriage, he stuffed a handkerchief with a light scent of rouge into his sleeve, with a bohemian smile on his lips, and waved Gu Chi to leave in front of everyone.
Gu Chi moved his gaze away from Shen Tang's sleeves, narrowed his eyes and teased: "Master, do you know who you look like just now?"
Shen Tang is self-aware.
"The prodigal son who succeeded in stealing jade and beauty?"
Gu Chi clapped his hands and praised: "Appropriate!"
But Shen Tang also did this to dispel any suspicions that might exist in the dark. After all, who in the shady business would be as arrogant as she was? Shen Tang swaggered all the way back to his own camp, doing whatever he was supposed to do, and not talking about Wang Ji at all. The transaction lasted until nightfall, while he and Jiang Sheng and others were having a meal together, he took out the handkerchief.
Jiang Sheng looked puzzled.
I didn't dare to take the veil.
Don't take the lord's veil randomly.
Shen Tang had no choice but to put the handkerchief on the candlelight to bake it for a while. Under the attention of several people, a small map gradually appeared on the originally blank handkerchief. Compared with the map given by General Yonggu Guanchu last time, this map was obviously exquisite. There are many of them. Not only are rivers, mountains and tribes marked on them, but the approximate number of tribes and their strength and strength are also marked in small characters on the side.
Even though Gu Chi was mentally prepared, his eyes widened and he took a deep breath.
"Where did that Princess Wang get it?"
Shen Tang didn't know: "No matter how she got it, as long as the map can be used and is easy to use, it is good."
When Jiang Sheng heard that the map was related to Wang Ji, his mind changed and he roughly guessed where the map came from.
Asked in a low voice: "Safety?"
Shen Tang shook his head: "No, the truth or falsehood needs further verification. If it is true, it will be much easier to deal with Shiwu. I went to test it out. We are only half a month away from the royal court, and some arrangements must be made as soon as possible. …”
Apart from anything else, Shen Tang had no intention of sending the so-called "thousand tribute girls" there. These thousand people were kept to cause trouble within Shiwu, but they lacked a perfect opportunity.
Just when I was wondering whether I should create chaos so that the "Thousand Tribute Girls" could take advantage of the chaos to escape—
A good opportunity came to my door.

Hurry up and get through the first three months. It feels like every day is like a year. Either I feel sleepy and nauseous or I have a headache that makes me want to vomit...
