Nangong Chuxin led his men to a remote corner of Meiyuan. Without anyone else, he spoke much more casually.
Especially the person who sent the letter.
The plum trees in the plum garden are only a little green, and the plum trees that can only sprout pistils in the twelfth lunar month of winter look a bit depressed in this hot summer. The person who sent the message folded the plum branches in a relaxed and casual manner, not as respectful as before.
Seeing this, Nangong Chuxin frowned slightly. But she couldn't get angry. Only those who like the authorities know the relationship.
Nangong Chuxin knew that the other party was giving her a wink. However, the overall situation was at hand, so Nangong Chuxin could only endure it in her heart.
The person who sent the letter was called Wei Dongqing. His name was not very famous, but his surname had a history. Anyone who knew the meaning of the message would have to call him General Wei.
But Nangong Chuxin will not show weakness, nor will he take the initiative to say anything.
The two fell into silence, feeling the fresh air and summer sunshine in the plum forest...
This is a process that requires patience.
Nangong Chuxin was in her early twenties. She was originally a young girl, but she had developed such a profound knowledge in these years that even an old Jianghu like Wei Dongqing had to accept it.
Half an hour later, Wei Dongqing finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked in a low voice: "Is the princess planning to remain silent forever?"
Nangong Chuxin smiled proudly: "I don't have anything to say, but General Wei hesitated to speak. I wonder what is hidden in his heart?"
"Princess is extremely intelligent. You should be clear about what I want to say and ask."
"If my guess is correct, Su Ran should have asked you to take the message, right?"
"General Su asked me to tell the princess that the general has taken over the famous Qijue Sect in the world. All the masters in the Qijue Sect are willing to join us. For this reason, the power we have can be said to have greatly increased."
"Oh? This is good news. However, I have never understood why Su Ran has always been obsessed with Jianghu? You know, what we do has nothing to do with Jianghu. To succeed, it also depends on how many martial arts masters we have in our hands.
It doesn't matter. So, I think Su Ran didn't tell the truth and wasn't honest enough with me. I hope you can also give him a message. Since we choose to cooperate, we should not hide anything from each other."
"Princess, based on my humble opinion, you must have misunderstood General Su on this matter. General Su Ran was born in martial arts, and it is normal to be obsessed with martial arts and yearn for martial arts. Moreover, General Su understands the impact of martial arts on the entire world.
Strength. Without enough martial arts masters, what we have to do will be difficult."
"Wei Dongqing, now you have the ability to guide the country and teach me?"
Wei Dongqing smiled: "I don't dare to humble my position, I just tell the truth. General Su wants to humble his position to serve the princess, but he also wants to humble his position to give the princess some advice when necessary."
Such a conversation made Nangong Chuxin very unhappy, but the situation forced him to do so.
Seeing that Nangong Chu was distressed, Wei Dongqing felt more at ease.
"Princess, General Su asked you to ask you, have you made any progress? After all, General Su has been making breakthroughs, but there has been no movement here. After all, it is a matter of cooperation between the two families. If the princess does not take action, I am afraid that
Doesn’t it make sense?”
"What does inaction mean?"
"I'm sorry for the offence, but what the princess is relying on now is nothing more than a useless prince. It seems too light to use this as a weight to negotiate with General Su. If Mr. Xia is added, maybe it will make General Su Ran feel more sincere.
.”
"You think it's light, but Su Ran won't. On the contrary, he will feel that my weight is very heavy. Without this useless prince, Su Ran would never succeed even if he planned for the rest of his life. From this point of view, Su Ran is not what it seems.
He is reckless, but he still understands it in his heart. As for Xia Shang, he is a very unique person, and not someone like you can see through it."
"you……"
"Wei Dongqing, you'd better be honest in front of me. Although you are Su Ran's man, you have made many mistakes under me. If Su Ran knows those things, you should know what will happen."
Wei Dongqing's face changed: "Princess, I don't mean to offend you by taking this humble position. It's just that General Su is eager to reply. If the princess doesn't resign, it will be difficult to explain your humble position. Moreover, General Su is very interested in Xia Shang, so he must ask the princess to give him a reply."
To be clear, can it be controlled? If not, General Su will ask people to get rid of it."
Nangong Chuxin pondered for a moment: "Tell Su Ran that Xia Shang can definitely be used by us!"
"Time! General Su wants a clear time."
"What the hell is Su Ran doing? Can this kind of thing set a time limit? Xia Shang is not an ordinary person. You can't do anything too hastily! If you do it too hastily, it may be counterproductive."
"You have to tell General Su these words face to face. You know General Su's character. If he says he needs time, he will definitely need time."
Nangong Chuxin frowned: "Half a year!"
"no!"
"Four months?"
"Two months. General Su will give the princess two months at most. Within two months, if the princess cannot bring Xia Shang under her command, General Su will get rid of her. And if the princess makes no progress, General Su will not
If we cooperate with you, you and the Waste Prince will be on your own."
"Two months?! How is this possible? Xia Shang isn't..."
"General Su made it very clear that from the beginning, what we have done is impossible to accomplish by chance. Therefore, the princess has to worry about all this."
After saying that, Wei Dongqing held up his hands and signaled that he was leaving.
Nangong Chuxin stopped him: "Wait a minute! Su Ran said that if I don't make any progress within two months, he won't cooperate with us? What else can he do after he leaves King Yong?"
"Princess, you can't understand this? Your Majesty doesn't know that Prince Yong has a son."
"He dares?!"
"Princess, you know that there is nothing that General Su would not dare to do. I have said this, and I hope that the princess will take it seriously."
Wei Dongqing did not stop any longer and quickly disappeared into the plum garden.
Nangong Chuxin stopped in place alone and did not move for a long time.
After all, she is a woman, and she is insignificant in the tide of history. Although she tried her best to deal with everything, in the end, no capable man is willing to stand behind a woman.
Therefore, women in this era can only rely on men.
Nangong Chuxin needs such a man, but... where can she find him?
Su Ran cannot be thrown away as his backer, and the power he holds cannot be underestimated, but he is also an ambitious man who may fall out at any time. Nangong Chuxin will never be willing to hide behind such a person. And Li Shou is a supporter.
Mud that does not go up the wall cannot be entrusted with important tasks.
The reason why Nangong Chuxin never forgets Xia Shang is because she feels that Xia Shang can achieve great things and can truly protect women from wind and rain. This is the kind of person she wants to rely on.
"Even if you don't become his woman, you can at least become his friend..."
Nangong Chuxin looked up at the sky, muttering quietly to himself, and suddenly a drizzle fell... (To be continued)
