The emperor's favorite useless concubine

Chapter 38
"It's too shameless of you to use a weak woman to act." Pei Ruochen looked at Director You, and said contemptuously: "What's more, since you know He Lanxue's wisdom, why do you think he would betray the court because of a woman? Woolen cloth?"

"Didn't he be exiled to Saibei because of a woman?" Director You chuckled and said, "What's more, that woman is Empress Rongxiu who is married. Why can't he come back because of a woman if he is willing to leave for a woman?"

Pei Ruochen hesitated for a moment, and then sneered: "How can Yi Ren compare with Rong Xiu? Rong Xiu is the pearl of our celestial dynasty, the goddess that He Lanxue misses. What is Yi Ren, but a concubine who was divorced from the palace. As far as I know , there are at least twenty princesses who have been divorced from the Xiaoyao Palace, do you think that He Lanxue will take care of them all?"

Director You was stunned, as if he hadn't expected the difference between the two, but he still argued, "Yiren is different."

"Where is it different?" Pei Ruochen looked at Director You sarcastically, and his voice was slightly mean: "What do you think will attract He Lanxue to her? Because of her appearance? Director You has also seen this. A neat maid in the palace can't compare to it—with such an appearance, do you think Xiaoyao Wang, who has read hundreds of concubines and concubines, will like it? In terms of family background, Yi Ren is just an ordinary merchant's daughter, a merchant of the Celestial Dynasty The status is low, worse than ordinary people, and there is nothing to try. In terms of intelligence and strategy, I don’t need to say more about this. May I ask Director You, for such a, nothing, yes, you keep the Iraqis. It's nothing more than a waste of food."

Director You listened calmly, and wanted to refute a few words, but found that there was nothing to refute.

What Pei Ruochen said is really true.

"If Director You is He Lanxue, may I ask, would you defy the world for such a woman, or even be rude to the princess Rongxiu of the Celestial Dynasty?" Pei Ruochen stared at him, and continued aggressively: "It's free and easy to throw everything for a beautiful woman." , Emphasis on friendship, ruining yourself for an irrelevant woman, even Supervisor You, would not do it, let alone Xiaoyao Wang, who has been known for his wisdom and intelligence since he was a child?"

Director You seemed to be convinced by Pei Ruochen's eloquence, he nodded involuntarily, and agreed, "It's really not worth it if it's for a fool like Yi Ren."

Just as Pei Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief, Supervisor Nayou suddenly raised his head and asked, "Since that's the case, why did Young Master Pei risk his life for her? Could it be that she is to Young Master Pei..."

"Yes, there is a reason why He Lanxue specially entrusted her to me." Pei Ruochen looked at him calmly, and said frankly, "Because I like her. Instead of sending her all the way to He Lanxue who can't care about you, I advise Director You It's better to make a deal with me on the spot."

Supervisor You looked stunned, and it took him a long time to smile and said, "It's really hard to believe that this sentence came from the mouth of the little Mr. Pei who has always had few desires."

Is it not just him who is unbelievable?

Yi Ren, who had just been dragged to the corner of the back hall by the order of the boy, blinked inexplicably.

The young man's warm breath blew into her ears, and he sneered, and said softly, "I really want to see what the trash that Pei Ruochen can favor looks like!"

In the hall outside the screen, Director You had already returned to normal, and continued: "Okay, but I don't know what you can exchange for her?"

"What you want." Pei Ruochen looked at him indifferently, and said, "Didn't you just want to find it last time when you ventured into the palace?"

"Is that portrait in your hand?" Director You blurted out with a happy face.

Pei Ruochen's eyes flickered, and then he replied calmly: "Yes. As long as you release Yi Ren, I will naturally give you the portrait."

"Why should I believe you." Director You seemed unable to believe that it would be so easy. Could it be that the treasure that they could not steal with so much loss of troops could be formed with just a few words from Pei Ruochen?

What's more, Yi Ren is not a big bargaining chip. If it is He Lanyou, Director You will take it for granted.

It's just Yiren...

"Little Mr. Pei, there is still one thing I don't understand." Director You narrowed his slightly swollen eyes, and asked Fox: "Since you have said so badly about Yiren, why do you still like her? As far as I know, four The princess He Lanyou is also one of the most beauties in the Celestial Dynasty, and there are delicate flowers in her family, so how can she love wild grass?"

"I like it if I like it, there is no reason." Pei Ruochen bent the corners of his lips, the beautiful curve reflected his face like a crown jade, and even Director You was dazzled for a moment: "This deal, do you really want it?" Do?"

Director You hasn't answered yet, Yi Ren only feels his neck tighten, and has been dragged into the lobby by the young man by his collar.

They stood on the steps, the young man's hand was stuck on Yi Ren's neck, Director You took a step back respectfully.They all faced Pei Ruochen who was standing in the center of the garden with his hands clasped.

When Pei Ruochen saw Yi Ren for the first time, his face was slightly relaxed, and the faint joy in his eyes could not escape Director You's eyes.

Does young master Pei really like this girl?Supervisor You thought.

When Yi Ren saw Pei Ruochen for the first time, he was also undisguisedly happy, but then he was a little annoyed and worried about him.

Yi Ren didn't quite understand the situation at this time, but she saw the cold light of swords, guns, swords and halberds in the darkness around her.

She knew that Pei Ruochen came for her.

No matter who he is, what he has done or said before, now, in the light of swords and swords, he is here for her.

That's enough.

"Although Mrs. Xi's behavior was extreme back then, she was astonishingly talented, her ingenuity and strategy are unmatched. I never thought that her only son would treat a defenseless woman like this." Pei Ruochen quickly sorted out the slight mood swings, his face was dull and joyless. Sadness: "Mr. Liu Se, I have already stated my bargaining chip. If there is no objection, I hope you let go of the person under your hand. If you hurt her, the transaction will be canceled immediately."

Liu Se, it turned out that the boy's name was Liu Se.Willows hang down the embankment, reflecting the color of the lake.

Yi Ren murmured the name again, but Liu Se's hand on his neck suddenly withdrew, and Yi Ren choked on being stuck, his round face flushed red, his eyes quickly became watery, pitifully Looking at Pei Ruochen.

"I want to see if you really like this trash and are really willing to hand over the treasure for her." Behind Liu Se smiled coldly and said: "Pei Ruochen, I heard that I have always been proud, the son of the rich and powerful, and the talent of the latitude and longitude. This knee Apart from kneeling on your knees to your parents and kings, you have never been subdued. Now, I want you to kneel in front of me, kneel in front of the Liu family, and respectfully kowtow three times. Otherwise..." He said with his hands After one delivery and another tightening, Yi Renlai coughed out of choking, the sound of coughing hadn't fully rushed into his throat, and because of the ensuing suffocation, it was suffocated into the sauce red face.

Pei Ruochen didn't say anything, just looked at Liu Se coldly.The hands on both sides were gently closed into fists, and then slowly released.

That unusually calm face was slightly pale.

Yi Ren stood on the steps, looking at Pei Ruochen who was under the stage.

Pei Ruochen also took a look at her, just a quiet look, no embarrassment, no blame, just casual, just like before.

But such an ordinary glance made Yi Ren feel like he couldn't breathe.

I can't breathe, not because Liu Se's movements are too tight, but because I really can't breathe.

Yi Ren doesn't have much feeling about kneeling. She is not a big man with gold under her knees. It's just that in this era, what does it mean to kneel to the enemy——

Yiren understands.

She has her own set of standards and principles of behavior, however, she can also understand the standards and principles of others.

"What? So it was just talking? Hypocrite." Liu Se smiled gloatingly, but the hand stuck between Yi Ren's neck involuntarily relaxed a lot.

He didn't mean to hurt Yi Ren.

"I'm counting one, two, three. One!" Pei Ruochen remained silent, except for his slightly pale face, his expression became even more serene.

That kind of silence, like an aura, emanated from his body, even Liu Se could sense it, and it completely angered Liu Se.

"two!"

Yi Ren opened his mouth, trying to say something righteous, but the voice came to his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

Is it like the heroines in the movies, yelling: "No, you go."

If he left, he would not be Pei Ruochen.

Yi Ren was too lazy to do such a boring thing.

In the end, she just looked back at him calmly, her face was flushed red, but her eyes were as quiet as a pool.

The only thing I can do now is to trust him.

trust him.

Pei Ruochen seemed to understand her peace of mind, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, the extremely beautiful curve reflected his face like a crown jade, as warm as water, even Director You was dazzled for a moment.

"Three——" Before Liu Se could say the last word, Pei Ruochen had already put down the hem of his clothes, his outer robe was flapping in the wind, and the hair on his forehead brushed messily on his abnormally calm face, his eyes were like jade, Already bowed down.

Kneeling was originally an unsightly posture, but when Pei Ruochen did it, it was indescribably elegant and beautiful.

Yi Ren also bent his lips, and watched Pei Ruochen kowtow as if nothing had happened with a smile on his face.

One.

two.

Three.

Extremely chic and unrestrained.

It seems that he is not bowing down to an enemy now, but is reciting poems and making confrontations with book friends, worshiping each other and acting.

It's just that such a gesture is not seen by Willow.

After he realized that Pei Ruochen really knelt down, he laughed, raised his neck, and laughed so arrogantly, but when he heard Yi Ren's ears, he felt a little miserable.

The hand on Yi Ren's neck did not show signs of loosening, but became tighter and tighter with the laughter.

Everyone present looked at Pei Ruochen, who was kneeling on the ground, and Liu Se, who was laughing with her neck raised.

"Pei Ruochen, back then your father turned his back on the Lord and killed my mother. Today's three ringers are your Pei family who apologized to my Liu family!" Liu Se laughed and shouted this jargon, her voice was shrill and night-like. owl.

Yi Renka was out of breath, and the sound of breathing in her ears was getting heavier and heavier. She thought it was her own at first, but when she glanced at Director You's slightly worried expression, she suddenly realized: the breathing like a cow's breath was actually from Liu Se. of.

It sounds like Liu Se's smile has been intermittent, as if she is trying to cover up something.

The hand on Yi Ren's neck didn't use as much force as before, but it was weak to hang there.

After being dazed for a few seconds, Yi Ren did something she thought was very wise.

She turned around suddenly, hugged Liu Se's waist tightly, fixed him firmly in front of her, then leaned her head forward, pressing his nose with her nose and his mouth with her mouth.

—she wanted to restrain him.
