The fierce wife is in power: the general should not try to escape

Chapter 213 Signing a Contract
Putting the box on the table, Shangguan Lianniang picked up the teacup on the table as if no one was there, and slowly sipped it.Left and right He Lianjue already knew her identity, so she didn't have to wrong herself to pretend, didn't she?

He Lianjue ordered someone to prepare the tea long ago, but he didn't ask Shangguan Lianniang to drink it. He didn't expect Shangguan Lianniang to bring him such a tea, but it seemed that his mind was too narrow.

With a chuckle, He Lianjue finally spoke first: "The general's wife is really extraordinary, she can be so leisurely in my imperial study! Don't be afraid, madam, I will ask someone to arrest you, and then threaten Da Xia ?"

As he spoke, a dangerous gleam flashed across Helianjue's eyes.Shangguan Lianniang knew that He Lianjue really had this idea, but why he didn't do it, Shangguan Lianniang might be able to guess a thing or two.

Putting down the teacup, Shangguan Lianniang smiled extravagantly: "The emperor is a smart man, so he naturally knows that it is useless to threaten Da Xia with me, but I can bring more benefits to Xi Cang by being here. "

"Oh? I don't know what benefits you, the wife of a general of the Great Xia, can bring to Xi Cang! Could it be that Madam forgot that it was your husband who defeated our army in Xi Cang? What about that?"

He Lianjue was really annoyed in his heart, although he knew that things on the battlefield were out of control, but with so many casualties in his army, how could he not feel resentful?
If Helian Yuhua didn't know where he found out the identity of Shangguan Lianniang some time ago, and then ran to the palace and said a lot of good things about Shangguan Lianniang, He Lianjue might have sent dead soldiers to assassinate Shangguan Lian Niang is gone.

Even so, He Lianjue allowed Li Huan's men to act, so why not have this reason?

During this period of time, he also thought clearly that Shangguan Lianniang's identity is annoying, but just like what Helian Yuhua and Shangguan Lianniang said, Shangguan Lianniang can bring more benefits to Xicang!

Xi Cang's situation cannot withstand war, which is a problem that He Lianjue cannot ignore no matter what.

And Shangguan Lianniang also knew this, so she dared to sit here and negotiate conditions with He Lianjue so firmly.It's just that the conditions discussed today are quite different from before.

This difference does not lie in Shangguan Lianniang, but in He Lianjue.

In order to allow herself to develop better, Shangguan Lianniang did not want to make He Lianjue too unwilling.Since He Lianjue has resentment in his heart, what's wrong with her being the peacemaker?
Thinking of this, Shangguan Lianniang looked at He Lianjue, and said: "The emperor is a transparent person, knowing victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Since I am sitting in front of the emperor today, I will be sure that the emperor will agree with me. I don’t know... As long as Yuhua is on the throne, Daxia and Xicang will never go to war, what does the emperor think?"

Shangguan Lianniang spoke very slowly, without any urgency, but it was such a slowness that He Lianjue listened to her words with sincerity.

I have to admit that even though He Lianjue didn't really want this kind of alms-like condition, he was also moved.

A gleam flashed in his eyes, and after a brief shock, He Lianjue calmed down.The identity of Shangguan Lianniang is very important, but He Lianjue doesn't really believe in the promise of a general's wife.

Thinking of this, He Lianjue lost the previous surprise and questioned in his words: "Madam is a bit funny. Could it be that Madam thinks I am a fool and believes that you alone can be such a big master?"

Hearing this, Shangguan Lianniang didn't care about He Lianjue's contempt: "Indeed, I can't be the lord, but my husband can. Let's not talk dark words, and now Great Xia has entered a stage of intense competition for the throne , King Xian and King Chu are fighting each other even more."

"As the emperor of Xicang, you understand how attractive the throne is to a person. Maybe the king of Chu won't do anything, but the virtuous king is very ambitious. Now the king of Chu is in the limelight, and the virtuous king is worried. If the throne falls, some special measures must be taken."

There is no need for Shangguan Lianniang to say clearly here, He Lianjue can also know what the so-called special means refer to.So, even He Lianjue couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

"How can you be so sure?" He Lianjue had to admit, if what Shangguan Lianniang said is true, then this is definitely a good opportunity for Xi Cang to cultivate and thrive!

Without the threat of Da Xia to them, and the southern border has been in civil strife, then Xi Cang can take this opportunity to build up.Not to mention how to prosper, but the problem of food has always been solved in time.

In this way, He Lianjue's attitude is not as tough as before.

Shangguan Lianniang was not surprised by He Lianjue's change of attitude, but nodded calmly.

Her appearance made He Lianjue more confident.Although He Lianjue didn't believe that Shangguan Lianniang could have any influence on the Great Xia Dynasty, Qi Muyuan could.

However, He Lianjue still had some concerns.

"For the time being, I believe what you said is true, but there is nothing to back it up. How can I believe that you won't go back on your word. Or, use this to tease me?"

The implication is that you have to produce a proof, no matter what, you have to hand over Qi Muyuan's handle so that He Lianjue can feel at ease.

Regarding this, Shangguan Lianniang was unwilling to involve Qi Muyuan.

With a flash of light in Shangguan Lianniang's eyes, she said, "How can you say it's empty talk? I'm the general's wife, and I'm in Xicang as a hostage, so what's your Majesty's dissatisfaction?"

Pushing herself out without hesitation, the confidence on Shangguan Lianniang's face showed that He Lianjue didn't know how to answer.

Can he say that women in this world are nothing more than objects discarded by men at will?Not to mention that only Shangguan Lianniang is here, even if Qi Muyuan brought his own mother here, Qi Muyuan may go back on his word at any time for such a big matter.

Under such circumstances, He Lianjue can only feel at ease only if he grasps Qi Muyuan's death handle.

Without speaking, He Lianjue just looked at Shangguan Lianniang like that, hoping that Shangguan Lianniang could understand what he meant and show something real.But Shangguan Lianniang was unmoved and drank tea calmly.

Such an attitude made He Lianjue, who had disdain for Shangguan Lianniang at the beginning, pay a little attention to it.

Left and Right He Lianjue is the one who needs this condition, Shangguan Lianniang can no longer develop in Xicang, and the same goes for going to Southern Xinjiang.She came to Xi Cang only because there is a Helian Yuhua here.

For her own people, Shangguan Lianniang has always been protective.

In the silent contest, it was He Lianjue who finally lowered his head first.He is not a faint king, on the contrary, everything he does is for the sake of Xi Cang.

Because of this, He Lianjue accepted Shangguan Lianniang's conditions and signed a contract.It's just that the name of Shangguan Lianniang was signed on it. If the matter fails, Qi Muyuan will not be implicated in collaborating with the enemy and treason.
