Chapter 357 Thank You So Much
When Shen Liuzhen said this, he frowned, and his tone suddenly changed from righteous and awe-inspiring to cunning, even a little sinister and evil:
"I am willing to serve the Wei Kingdom because of Prince Jingmu and because of His Majesty today.

Because His Majesty has inherited the legacy of Prince Jingmu, I see hope in him.This kind of hope was not available in Song Dynasty.

But to be honest, the current state of Wei is not friendly to the Han people.It is neither my hometown nor my country.If one day His Majesty is gone, I will not stay here any longer. "

Prince Chongsu was a little moved, he frowned, and because Shen Liuzhen mentioned Prince Jingmu, his sad expression became more intense.

He believed that what Shen Liuzhen said was true, because what he said basically matched his state of mind.

Ever since Prince Jingmu passed away in depression, he felt the same way. He felt that the earth-shattering outside and the torrential flood no longer had anything to do with him.

Even though Wei Guo has worked hard for most of his life, Wei Guo is his country, he doesn't care anymore, even in the depths of his heart, there is resentment, and he faintly hopes that Wei Guo will die and be buried with Prince Jingmu...

This resentment only faded a little when Shen Liuzhen came to his door and delivered the blood-stained volume of poems to him.

Because he discovered that there are still people in this world who remember him as much as he does, and who are continuing to walk the path he has not completed, and they are not all so cold and cruel.

Prince Chongsu lowered his eyes to hide his inner fragility, loosened his painful brows, and said lightly:
"How dare you say..."

Shen Liuzhen smiled calmly, raised his wide sleeves and cupped his hands at Lord Chongsu, and said:
"Since what I said was what I said from my heart, I naturally want to say everything."

Lord Chongsu didn't answer the words, and ate his food with his head slightly lowered, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry, which made Shen Liuzhen very uneasy for a while.There is no other way, he can only be a companion, eating the dishes on the table.

But there is no way to be completely at ease, the corner of his eyes is always paying attention to the direction of Lord Chongsu, for fear that he will fly up directly with a big knife like last time, and rush to him.

He has to be ready to run two steps to hide at all times, because only by running two more steps can he have more time to speak and fight for himself.

There were only the two of them in the hall, and there was nothing else except the slight noise of the two of them eating.

Even though there was a charcoal basin not far away, Shen Liuzhen felt chilly in such an atmosphere.

I don't know how long it took, Lord Chongsu asked:

"You entered the palace today, does the queen have an errand for you?"

Shen Liuzhen's pupils trembled, he put down the chopsticks in his hand, and said, "Yes."

Then he smiled and said, "My lord is at home and thanking guests behind closed doors. I didn't expect this news to reach your ears so quickly."

"I don't want to care about the affairs of the court, but I have always been concerned about your affairs. If I want to know, I will naturally know."

When Shen Liuzhen heard this, his heart thumped, he laughed awkwardly, and said, "...Thank you, my lord... for your kindness, this junior is very flattered."

Lord Chongsu raised his eyes, sharp as a hawk, glanced at Shen Liuzhen and said, "...What? The errand is kept secret from me, can't I say it?"

Shen Liuzhen hurriedly cupped his hands, and said apologetically, "No...it's a matter of raising grain for spring sowing."

Lord Chongsu looked at him with a dignified tone, and asked, "Well, what are you going to do?"

Shen Liuzhen faintly felt that his head was breaking out in cold sweat, and said respectfully: "Borrow in the name of the court, borrow one and repay two."

Lord Chongsu frowned, and the hand holding the wine glass froze in the air, as if a little surprised.

After pondering for a moment, he asked again with coercion: "What if no one is willing to borrow it?"

Shen Liuzhen's tone was very respectful, but what he said was full of confidence and arrogance, and he said very plainly:
"Don't worry, my lord, they will borrow it voluntarily."

Prince Chongsu narrowed his eyes, looked at the top of Shen Liuzhen's bowed head, and asked in a low voice:
"...will someone bleed?"

When Shen Liuzhen heard this, he raised his eyes in surprise, and met the threatening and questioning eyes of Prince Chongsu, so scared that he quickly lowered his head again, and said:
"Where can I do it? It's just a payment, unless..." Unless someone doesn't like it and tries to assassinate him.

But suddenly the scene of He An's death flashed in his mind.He used He'an's assassination of the imperial envoy as an excuse to kill him.

Knowing that if he said this, Lord Chongsu might think that he was planning to kill some Xianbei noble again, so he quickly shut up.

But Lord Chongsu was unwilling to let him go, and asked majestically, "Unless what?"

Shen Liuzhen licked his lips and said, "It's nothing, there is no unless."

The tone of Lord Chongsu relaxed immediately, and he said: "It's better to be like this... The few errands you did before, all of them were not only casualties, but also involved in many things. If this is still the case this time, then no matter what you do at that time Use your tongue to defend yourself. I would think that you are a spy of Song State and a treacherous official of Wei State."

Shen Liuzhen's heart skipped a beat, and he raised his head to face Lord Chongsu with piercing eyes, and said frankly and meaninglessly:
"Your Majesty's words, please keep this in mind, and you will definitely be cautious in your words and deeds in the future. I know that your Majesty has doubts about me. It's nothing. If you change the place, I will have the same.

But I still ask my lord to look at my deeds, regardless of my intentions, as long as what I do is good for His Majesty and the country of Wei, why bother about bloodshed? "

Shen Liuzhen stood up from his seat, bowed solemnly, and said sincerely:
"Besides, this junior has a clear conscience about what he has done before. I still dare to say this even to the heavens and ghosts."

Upon hearing this, Prince Chongsu withdrew his sharp gaze, and the whole person returned to a state of desolation and helplessness from the majesty and seriousness just now.

He sighed almost inaudibly, and said: "I can allocate a thousand stones in my granary. You can pick a time to take Nai into the treasury. If you have time, come to the mansion more often. I don't want to see others. You are definitely welcome."

Shen Liuzhen was a little moved by his one thousand shi grain support just now, but after hearing what he said, he almost cursed in his heart:
Thank you so much for being so special to me!You are targeting and monitoring, every time you come, it's like a Hongmen banquet, who the hell wants to come here often!

Shen Liuzhen finished cursing in his heart, but still kept a humble and polite look on his face, thanking him respectfully:
"Thank you for your support, my lord. As long as I have free time, I will definitely visit you from time to time."

He raised his eyes and looked at Prince Chongsu again, and asked tentatively: "My lord... If there is nothing wrong, the junior will leave?"

　I suddenly remembered that a reader friend once left a message saying that if I go bald, she will raise money to buy a wig for me.

　　Laughed at me.

　　I gave her back a "Pfft... I thank you..."

　　I didn't see her leave a message later... Could it be that I thought I was upset with her and made her run away in anger?
