Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 324 Show Your Sincerity
Xuanyuan Jue naturally knew the significance of Situ Yue's troubles in arranging this dinner. He calmly swept through the people in the seat one by one. These are Situ Yue's capable officers. From Xuanyuan Jue's perspective, Guang It's the spirit that makes the difference.

It seems that Situ Yue has not given much thought to these years.

Situ Yue suddenly changed his intention to treat him as a guest of honor, Xuanyuan Jue couldn't help sneering in his heart, he just wanted to use him to kill each other with Prince Xuanyuan Ming, so that Situ's family in the northern region could reap the benefits of being a fisherman.

The abacus was loud, but Situ Yue probably didn't expect that his "wishful thinking" fell into Xuanyuan Jue's arms. Even if Situ Yue didn't take the initiative to come to him, Xuanyuan Jue would try every means to "surrender".

It's just that Situ Yue couldn't hold his breath because it was about the life and death of his Situ family.

"His Royal Highness King Jing, I respect you!" Situ Yue's subordinates were all very clever, but they got Situ Yue's two eyes, and cooperated with Situ Yue very wisely and began to compliment Xuanyuan Jue.

Xuanyuan Jue did not stop the wine they offered to them one by one, and drank them one by one to show their sincerity for "cooperation".

"His Royal Highness King Jing is really good at drinking!" Someone praised, Xuanyuan Jue just smiled, but Situ Yue added: "That's natural, King Jing's tolerance is comparable to this drinking capacity!"

Xuanyuan Jue seemed to be used to the meaning behind Situ Yue's words, so he glanced sideways at him, "The King of Xiangyang has praised you!"

While Situ Yue was leading the crowd to greet Xuanyuan Jue, on the other side, Situ Lei was drinking alone with disdain.

"Before, I may have had some misunderstandings with His Highness King Jing, and I hope His Highness King Jing will take care of you," Situ Yue said with a smile on his face, and filled up the wine in Xuanyuan Jue's glass graciously, "Drink this glass of wine, may I You and I, friendship lasts forever!"

Xuanyuan Jue remained silent, took the wine glass, lazily replied with an inexplicable smile, "Do it!"

Xuanyuan Jue's attitude seemed to Situ Yue to be too frank, and the more frank he was, the more uneasy he felt.

He really couldn't figure out how Xuanyuan Jue agreed to cooperate with him so easily.

During this period, Situ Lei tried to get up several times, but was held down by Situ Yue's men. Situ Lei just watched his father chatting and laughing with the person he hated the most. It looks so warm and harmonious.

"Your Majesty, hold your breath!" Someone reminded Situ Lei with a lowered voice close to Situ Lei's ear. However, Situ Lei didn't have the heart to listen to him. He wished he could rush up and smash Xuanyuan Jue's head with a wine pot.

After several glasses of wine, Situ Yue suddenly beckoned to call for his attendants, and saw a handsome maid approaching, holding a cloud disk in her hand, covered with a white silk cloth, her steps were light and mysterious.

Situ Yue raised his lips and smiled, and suddenly stretched out his hand to remove the white silk cloth, and a gleaming dagger appeared in front of everyone.

"What is King Xiangyang doing?" Xuanyuan Jue calmly looked at the dagger, which was shining with a cold light.

Situ Yue suddenly swung his sleeves, exposing half of his arms, and then held up the dagger in one hand, the smile on his lips deepened. Suddenly, the people around were sighing. No one knew what kind of medicine Situ Yue was selling in this gourd. .

The hall was suddenly silent, and even Situ Lei, who had been agitated all the time, couldn't help but widen his eyes. He saw Situ Yue's hand fell with a knife, and suddenly, a bloody hole appeared on his arm, and the blood was overflowing. The maid hurriedly stepped forward to catch it with a celadon bowl.

Naturally, she didn't dare to take too much, but after a few drops, she hurriedly used a silk cloth to make a simple bandage for Situ Yue.

Although the dagger is sharp, the cut is not deep. For a martial arts practitioner like Situ Yue, this kind of minor injury is not a big deal.

Xuanyuan Jue watched this scene quietly, probably already guessing Situ Yue's intentions in his heart, it seemed that he was going to force himself to show his sincerity.

Sure enough, Situ Yue handed the dagger to Xuanyuan Jue next. Xuanyuan Jue was about to hesitate, but countless eyes around him were staring at him, making him unable to advance or retreat. It seemed that if he could not follow Situ Yue today, he would die without a burial. like a place.

"Does the King of Xiangyang have to do this?" Xuanyuan Jue asked while taking the dagger.

Situ Yue frowned, "This is the rule of my Situ family in the north. Since King Jing wants to stand on the same boat as us, this knife must not be tolerated!"

Xuanyuan Jue looked around, sure enough, everyone's eyes were always on Situ Yue, but he had no choice but to temporarily follow Situ Yue, rolled up his sleeves, gritted his teeth, and slashed the dagger.

Xuanyuan Jue's blood flowed into the bowl containing Situ Yue's blood just now, and after the maid had finished bandaging Xuanyuan Jue, the dagger was passed to the next person, and so on, until everyone's blood had covered the bowl. It's full.

At this time, Situ Yue showed a satisfied smile, and with a look, he signaled to take down the bloody bowl.

However, the matter was far from ending so simply. Not long after, the maid came in again, followed by two strong men. The two strong men were carrying a large vat of wine. The messy smell of blood, it is obvious that the blood of everyone just now has been mixed into this wine jar.

The maid took out more than a dozen sea bowls and lined them up, followed by two strong men pouring the wine mixed with blood into the sea bowls one by one.

"King Jing, please!" Situ Yue raised his hand, saying that he was the first to pick up one of the wine bowls. Now that Xuanyuan Jue had no way out, he could only endure the depression in his heart, and followed Situ Yue's actions. He picked up a wine bowl, and at this point, the rest of the people dared to join in and hold up the remaining wine bowls.

"After drinking this bowl of wine, in the future, you and I will be friends who live and die together!" Situ Yue said.

"This subordinate swears allegiance to the prince to the death!" Everyone said in unison.

Xuanyuan Jue couldn't help but find it ridiculous that Situ Yue had already established his small "court" in this northern border. No wonder he could be so arrogant these years. Those who have followed Situ Yue for many years, their loyalty to Situ Yue is unquestionable Of course, it is impossible to provoke and shake easily, and the only way to successfully control the forces in Situ Yue's hands is to truly gain the trust of Situ Yue and the crowd.

Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Jue no longer hesitated, raised his head and drank the wine mixed with blood in the bowl.

Xuanyuan Jue dragged the empty bowl and said, "Now, the King of Xiangyang can feel at ease?"

Situ Yue reached out and patted Xuanyuan Jue's shoulder, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Situ Lei who rushed out.

Situ Lei was a little drunk, and just now he watched for a long time, and finally understood his father's intentions, but at this time, he was here for their Situ family, and he was purely looking for Xuanyuan Jue unhappy.

Situ Lei pushed aside the restraints of his attendants, stumbled a few steps forward, and said vaguely, "Slow...slowly!"

When Situ Yue saw Situ Lei approaching, he couldn't help frowning, as if he was deeply afraid that Situ Lei would ruin his event.

However, Situ Lei, who was drunk at this moment, was forced to be sober at any time.

"Lei'er, don't mess around, get down!" Situ Yue shouted, Situ Lei was not willing to listen, and patted his chest dissatisfied, "Father, you are always so unwilling to believe me, do you know that I also It's for you, for our Situ family!"

Situ Yue remained silent, watching what Situ Lei was going to do.

Situ Lei pointed at Xuanyuan Jue, and said, "My father believed him so easily? Has my father forgotten who he is? He is King Jing, and his surname is 'Xuanyuan' not 'Situ'! He How could he be of one mind with us, he..."

Before Situ Lei could finish speaking, Xuanyuan Jue interrupted Situ Lei suddenly and asked, "What should I do so that my son will believe it?"

"Heh!" Situ Lei sneered, stood on tiptoe, looked straight at Xuanyuan Jue's flawless eyes, and smiled "PuPuPuPuPuPuPuPuPu", "I want to show my sincerity, alright, I will give you this chance!"

Everyone couldn't help pricking up their ears, wondering how Situ Lei would "make things difficult" for Xuanyuan Jue. Similarly, Xuanyuan Jue was also curious about what kind of problem Situ Lei would give him.

Situ Lei put his finger on Xuanyuan Jue's chest, leaned closer to Xuanyuan Jue and said, "Kill someone, do you dare?"

Everyone couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. They thought it was something big, wasn't it just killing someone?Those marching people, don't they have little blood on their hands?
However, Xuanyuan Jue was the only one who faintly sensed an ominous premonition.

"Murder?" Xuanyuan Jue asked back.

"That's right!" Situ Lei was full of satisfaction, "You agreed to cooperate with us so readily, you can't be without a little sincerity, right?"

"Who to kill?" Xuanyuan Jue didn't bother to talk to Situ Lei, and simply asked directly, even though he could have a premonition that that person...

"Princess Jing!" Situ Lei blurted out.

Xuanyuan Jue's heart "thumped", sure enough, Situ Lei still deliberately made things difficult for him.

Everyone suddenly realized that they couldn't help but secretly gave their senior son a thumbs up. Only his senior son could think of such a problem.

Even Situ Yue, who was watching Situ Lei from the side, couldn't help laughing "haha".

Obviously, he was very satisfied with his son's actions. Situ Lei, who received the approval from Situ Yue's eyes, became even more proud. The unhappiness in his heart disappeared in an instant. Lei felt even more happy in his heart, as if he had just won a battle.

"How about it, King Jing is hesitant?" Situ Lei saw the right moment, and deliberately said sarcastically: "I have already said, you are so easy to be wooed by my father, there must be some ulterior conspiracy, there is nothing to say now Let's just say it, father, you don't need to keep him anymore, just kill him!" Situ Lei became more and more excited as he spoke, wishing he could immediately draw his sword and finish Xuanyuan Jue with his own hands.

Xuanyuan Jue clenched his fist slightly, he was finally caught in a dilemma, on one side was his long-planned plan, on the other side was his beloved Wan'er...

What should he do?
