In the blink of an eye, the enemy and the enemy started a battle, one side stood in front of the living room door, the other side stood in the center of the courtyard, facing each other in a tense situation.
Seeing that the battle was about to break out, Qingtian Xiong raised his hand to signal his subordinates not to act rashly. Then, Zhou Xingyun saw Qingtian Xiong step forward unhurriedly, looking at Han Qiumiao with his head held high: "Your Highness the Princess seems not to realize yet.
In my own situation, can just a few dozen martial arts warriors stand against the tens of thousands of troops in the northern border?"
"Has the tail of the old fox finally been exposed? I am not afraid of falling out with you, or we will both be destroyed!" Han Qiumiao's temper was so fierce that even Zhou Xingyun couldn't coax the angry Xiao Qiuqiu, let alone outsiders.
If Qingtian Xiong really wants to fight today, Zhou Xingyun can guarantee that Han Qiumi will fight to the end.
"Your Highness, please calm down. You are so angry at this moment that you may not be able to listen to what I'm saying. However, the marriage that I'm discussing with you today is indeed the best choice at the moment, and it's a win-win choice for you and me."
Qingtian Xiong came to talk to Han Qiumiao today and wanted to force her to remarry him, which was expected to anger Han Qiumiao. But this was not important and would not affect his plan.
After all, Qingtian Xiong's goal of talking to Han Qiumiao today has been achieved. He clearly conveyed all the information that needed to be conveyed to Han Qiumiao.
Too anxious to eat hot tofu, Han Qiumiao is now under house arrest in the mansion. Qingtian Xiong has plenty of time to talk to her slowly and grind slowly.
Rushing for success will often not lead to good results. Only by applying pressure step by step and breaking down Han Qiumiao's will can she honestly surrender. So...
"How about this? I will give the princess three days to think about it. During these three days, Her Royal Highness must think carefully, think carefully, and think calmly about the benefits of cooperating with my northern soldiers.
The official will discuss it with the princess again in three days, and I urge the princess to stand on the commanding heights of the overall situation and think deeply about the proposal made by the official today. Don't let a wrong decision lead to irreversible consequences."
Qingtian Xiong's mentality was stable, and his mood was not affected by Han Qiumiao's anger and ordered Han Shuangshuang to kick him out of the living room. After Qingtian Xiong finished speaking in a calm tone, he politely raised his hands and fists to Han Qiumiao, and then left with Shen Quan and others.
The east wing courtyard.
Faced with Han Qiumiao's angry scolding, Qingtian Xiong remained unmoved. This was not because he had a good temper, but because he was very calm. In Qingtian Xiong's eyes, Han Qiumiao was nothing more than fish on the chopping board, and there was no need for him to complain.
The thing in it becomes angry.
On the contrary, Han Qiumiao was so angry with him that he couldn't stop being angry, like the last roar of a lost dog.
Regarding this point, Qingtian Xiong did not hesitate to give Han Qiumiao a bad review in his heart. As a person in a high position and in power, only by staying calm at all times can he handle things well.
Han Qiumiao is so irritable, which is a bit beyond Qingtian Xiong's expectation, which makes Qingtian Xiong feel that he should not overestimate Han Qiumiao. A long time ago, he heard that Han Qiumiao is so smart and capable, he is a rare genius, and even
His attainments in the art of war are also quite outstanding, and he is called the God of War by many generals.
The capital was captured by the sixteenth son of the emperor. Han Qiumiao personally led thousands of soldiers to defeat the majority with less. When the rebellion in the capital was quelled, Qingtian Xiong still thought that Princess Yongming was a woman who would not be tolerated. But now, he is really disappointed in her.
, I didn’t expect that those rumors were exaggerated, and Princess Yongming was actually an ordinary woman who couldn’t even control her own emotions.
Now Han Qiumiao's only praise in Qingtian Xiong's heart is probably that when she is angry and angry, she is very charming, which is pleasing to the eye and never gets tired of. Maybe this
This is also one of the reasons why Qingtian Bear doesn't get angry when being scolded.
Watching Qingtian Bear leave the east chamber courtyard, Han Qiumiao relaxed his tense nerves and exhaled deeply.
Immediately afterwards, Han Qiumiao turned to Uncle He Taishi and others, and said sincerely: "Thank you for standing up and helping me in this critical moment."
"You're welcome, it's our honor to serve the princess." Hou Baihu replied quickly. Although Han Qiumiao didn't let him enter the living room today, it was considered a kind of honor for him to stay outside the living room door with Uncle He Taishi.
progress.
Qingtian Xiong and Han Qiumiao were talking about something in the living room. They could almost hear clearly what they were waiting for outside the door. This could be regarded as... Han Qiumiao's trust in him.
The only flaw is that Zhou Xingyun can actually stand shoulder to shoulder with Her Royal Highness the Princess's personal bodyguard in the living room, which really puzzles Hou Baihu.
"Okay, I'm very tired today, you all should leave first." Han Qiumiao looked tired and rubbed his forehead.
"Her Royal Highness Princess is a body of ten thousand gold. You must have a good rest. Don't be angry by the words of Qingtian Bear, and you must not agree to the request of Qingtian Bear." Uncle He Taishi can understand Han Qiumiao's current situation, Qingtian
Xiong was so bold that he actually dared to force Gong Han Qiumiao to marry him. This was really against the grain. He Taishishu, risking his life, could not let Qingtian Xiong succeed.
Now Han Qiumiao must be very angry with Qingtian Xiong. After Uncle He wanted to resign to the princess, he went to the medical fairy Qin Beiyan and asked her to get some Ningshen Hot Pot for Han Qiumiao to drink.
Han Qiumiao dismissed Hou Baihu and returned to his wing to rest.
Admittedly, Han Qiumiao was not really exhausted. She claimed that she wanted to rest, but she was just trying to hide it from others. About half an hour after Han Qiumiao returned to the room, Zhou Xingyun, Wei Suyao, Qili'an and others gathered in her room as scheduled.
Inside.
Han Qiumiao saw people sneaking into his room one after another, and couldn't help asking directly: "Has Hou Baihu left?"
Yesterday, Han Qiumiao and others agreed that after meeting with Qingtian Xiong today, they would wait for Bai Hu to leave the east chamber courtyard and then gather together to discuss the matter.
Now Hou Baihu must be impatient to go to Qingtian Xiong and report what happened in the east chamber last night.
"Well, he left." Wei Suyuan said in a nonchalant manner. Han Qiumiao assigned Hou Baihu to explore the structure diagram of the mansion. This boy could enter and leave the east chamber openly. Because of this, Hou Baihu left the east chamber courtyard.
Everyone sees it.
"Xiao~Qiu~Qiu~, let me rub your shoulders." Zhou Xingyun called Han Qiumiao angrily, then ran up behind the beautiful lady and massaged the girl's shoulders honestly.
Han Qiumiao couldn't help but smile knowingly when he saw Zhou Xingyun serving him so obediently: "Don't worry, I'm not angry."
Han Qiumiao could tell that Zhou Xingyun behaved well in front of him because he felt that she was very angry at Qingtian Xiong and wanted to make her happy.
To be honest, it was impossible for Han Qiumiao not to be angry when Qingtian Bear shamelessly forced her to marry. However, the anger in Han Qiumiao's heart was actually not that serious. The reason why she was so angry in the living room was that Han Shuangshuang drove Qingtian Bear away.
It's just to make the other party feel that she is reckless and has lost her cool with anger...
But having said that, Zhou Xingyun's considerate side is in contrast to Qingtian Xiong's hateful face, which makes Han Qiumiao quite happy.
"As long as you're not angry, Xiao Qiuqiu has been very tired recently. I'll give you a massage to help relieve your stress." Zhou Xing
Yun's acupuncture technique is very refined and will definitely make Han Qiumiao feel comfortable.
"We all know Qingtian Xiong's intentions now. He just wants to marry me, form an alliance with the royal family, and consolidate his position in the northern territory. As long as he is recognized by the royal family, he can legitimately become a prince in the northern territory.
King." Although Han Qiumiao had already seen some signs, Qingtian Xiong was really brave enough to force the marriage in front of her.
"Hey, he will give you three days to think about it. How are you going to respond to him then?" Mo Nianxi wanted to know if Han Qiumiao had a way to deal with Qingtian Xiong.
Everyone has seen Qingtian Bear's aggressive attitude. Now he gave Han Qiumiao three days to think about it. In the end, Han Qiumiao still refused. Qingtian Bear was afraid that he would completely fall out and force Han Qiumiao to submit by any means necessary.
"Hahaha, the end justifies the means." Rao Yue suddenly smiled and said to Zhou Xingyun faintly: "Dear, I have another secret."
"Xiaoyue, what did you find out again?" Considering that Sister Rao Yue secretly told him a shocking piece of information last time, Zhou Xingyun was full of unlimited expectations for the little monster's 'secret'.
You know, the first secret that Rao Yue secretly told Zhou Xingyun has not yet come into use, and the second secret is coming. If these two secrets can become the trump card against Qing Tianxiong, it will be really incredible.
"Come here..." Rao Yue pointed her fingers. She would only tell Zhou Xingyun her secret, and no one else would know.
On the other side, while Zhou Xingyun and others were discussing matters in Han Qiumiao's wing, Hou Baihu hurriedly walked into the west wing courtyard to meet Qingtian Xiong.
After Qingtian Xiong finished talking with Han Qiumiao, when he exited the east chamber courtyard, he secretly sent a message to Hou Baihu, asking him to find an opportunity to find him in the west chamber, saying that there was something important and asked Hou Baihu to handle it...
Hou Baihu didn't dare to neglect. Seeing Han Qiumiao go back to his room to rest, he immediately went to the west chamber to see Qingtian Xiong.
Hou Baihu followed the guard's guidance and arrived at Qingtian Xiong's study room within a few moments: "Hou Baihu meets Mr. Zhou Mu."
"You are the person who works for me, so there is no need to be polite when meeting in private." Qingtian Xiong glanced at Hou Baihu in a nonchalant manner, then treated him with courtesy and kindness, as if he were meeting a friend, and invited Hou Bai
Guest seating at home.
In normal times, Hou Baihu might have been an insignificant figure, but now as Han Qiumiao's escort, he was a very useful chess piece for Qingtian Xiong.
"Lord Xie Zhoumu." Hou Baihu was not stupid. He knew that Qingtian Xiong received him so friendly and did not really regard him as a friend, so he still thanked him very politely and then took his seat in accordance with Qingtian Xiong's order.
Subordinates should act like subordinates. If he can't even understand Qingtian Xiong's polite words, how can he, Hou Baihu, make a name for himself in the world?
"Master Zhou Mu summoned me, what is the important matter?"
Hou Baihu didn't say much nonsense, and asked Qingtian Xiong straight to the point. When Qingtian Xiong left the east chamber, he deliberately sent a message to himself, obviously there was something urgent and he needed his help.
"The drawings on the desk are the structural drawings of this mansion that you asked me for yesterday." Qingtian Xiong pointed to the drawings on the desk and said unhurriedly: "It will inevitably arouse the princess's suspicion. You are the most likely to
So I can write it down and draw it again by hand when I get back to my room.”
"Okay." Hou Baihu nodded quickly and agreed, then walked to the desk and silently memorized the drawings.
Qingtian Xiong sat beside him without saying a word, letting Hou Baihu concentrate on writing down the structural diagram of the mansion.
