Chapter 120 Zi Nu's Little Thoughts
Tianze had tried to use the prince as a bargaining chip to exchange the antidote with Marquis Xueyi, but he was ridiculed by Marquis Xueyi and told to be a good dog.
Cheng Jiao gave a reason that was unexpected to Tianze but also reasonable.
"The clues to the Baiyue treasure are enough to attract the attention of the Blood Robe Marquis. Yemu is not a monolithic entity. If the Blood Robe Marquis has the opportunity to take the treasure for himself, he will not consider sharing it with Ji Wuye."
Tianze snorted coldly: "If the Bloody Marquis finds out that I'm teasing him, he will still fight him."
Cheng Jiao was speechless: "Why are you hitting him? Can't you just run away?"
Tianze stopped talking, his eyes flashed: "Then, as a sign of sincerity, one of you should stay."
Six snake bone chains rushed towards Han Fei.
In fact, he really wanted to kidnap Cheng Jiao so that he could use Cheng Jiao's life at any time to provoke a war between Qin and Han.
But this guy is a bit weird. He looks like a first-rate master at most, but he can unleash sword energy that even top masters are afraid of.
However, Han Fei on Cheng Jiao's side is also a good choice. As the ninth son of King Han and one of the masters of Liusha, he is enough to be the basic bargaining chip for cooperation.
Han Fei and Cheng Jiao were both very calm. One was the descendant of Guiguzi, and the other was an emperor. Neither of them could help Tianze get his wish.
The shark tooth was inserted directly in front of Tianze, but Tianze's expression did not change at all.
The Hundred Poison King and the Corpse-Driving Demon attacked Cheng Jiao and Wei Zhuang respectively, trying to create an opportunity for Tianze to capture Han Fei.
Before a breath had passed, both sides stopped fighting.
A gully formed by sword energy appeared in front of Han Fei and Cheng Jiao.
The hooded Jingwei stood on a high branch, unusually calm, as if the noise was not caused by himself.
Tianze wanted to raise his hand, but finally put it down.
"I hope you can bring the antidote out. Let's go!"
With Jingwei here, even if she is alone, she is enough to hang the three of them up and beat them.
There is no harm in this cooperation for him, so he can give it a try.
If it doesn't work, it will only make the Blood-Clothed Marquis angry and humiliated. Will he care about Bai Yifei's feelings?
Even if Bai Yifei holds the mother Gu in his hand, if he compromises, he will no longer be Tianze. How can he talk about revenge and restoration of the country?
He doesn't want to be a dog yet, he wants to be a wolf!
If you want to be a wolf, you can't cherish your life!
Tianze has no other advantages except that he is not afraid of death!
Han Fei and Cheng Jiao were on their way back to the city.
"Master Cheng Jiao, how are you going to deal with the antidote? Are you really going to discuss cooperation directly with Tianze?"
"Of course I can't give it to him directly. Sometimes, these two things don't conflict and can be done at the same time."
Han Fei understood what Cheng Jiao was going to do.
When Cheng Jiao returned to the city and arrived at Zilanxuan, Jingwei left quietly.
Cheng Jiao felt a little regretful. He wanted to take Jingwei in for a walk. After all, this was his home.
Nong Yuling happened to meet Cheng Jiao while carrying the food box.
"Son."
Cheng Jiao knew what Nanyue was going to do as soon as he saw it.
"Be careful not to be followed."
Nong Yu nodded seriously: "Sister Zi Nu has explained it to me, and I understand."
"By the way, are you still going to my sister-in-law's place tonight?"
"Sister Zi Nu said she has something important to attend to these days. I have already told mother that I will stay at Zi Lan Xuan for the next few days."
"Well, come back soon."
A smile appeared on Nanyue's face and she passed by Chengjiao.
After seeing this, Han Fei was amazed: "Nongyu seems to be interested in you."
Cheng Jiao coughed lightly and said, "No way, don't talk nonsense."
Zi Nu was upstairs, with her head down, writing something on silk from time to time.
There was no reaction to the arrival of Han Fei and Cheng Jiao, and everything remained the same.
Wei Zhuang leaned against the window, looking at the Jubao Pavilion in the distance.
After so many days of construction, Jubao Pavilion has become another landmark building in Xinzheng, and its reputation has begun to spread to neighboring countries.
"Are you done?"
Cheng Jiao handed Zi Nu a glass of water.
Zi Nu took the cup of water, drank it all, and let out a slow breath.
"I have already sorted out the manpower, carriages, and locations where the treasure is stored. The next step is to collect various intelligence and make revisions."
Cheng Jiao's eyes hurt when he looked at the densely packed small characters on the cloth.
He took a quick glance at the various bamboo slips summarizing intelligence on the desk and was frightened.
Suddenly, he no longer wanted to be in Lu Buwei's position. He thought that Zheng Ge would have to deal with 120 kilograms of government bamboo slips every day after he took power. He was really a ruthless person!
He thought that he would not end up like this at that time. Even if he only had to deal with 20 kilograms of bamboo slips, he felt that he would die suddenly.
He muttered subconsciously: "It's impossible for me to work. I will never work in my life."
Zi Nu turned around and asked in confusion: "What kind of job?"
Cheng Jiao kissed Zi Nu's lips and said, "This is not a job for humans. No wonder Brother Wei Zhuang is unwilling to do it."
Zi Nu smiled and said, "It's not difficult, just a little bit tedious. By the way, do you think ten carriages are enough for Tian Ze?"
"It's a little short. Let's add five more. Ten cars are a little short for that much money, so that Nightmu won't be able to react quickly. We can just create a time difference. The longer Tianze can delay, the better."
Zi Nu casually made a stroke and wrote the number fifteen next to it.
"You, do you have anything tonight?"
The two were silent for a while. Zi Nu was reserved for a moment, then asked in a low voice with affection in her eyes.
Cheng Jiao came back to his senses, looked at Zi Nu's gentle eyes, and took Zi Nu's tender little hand.
"All right?"
Zi Nu was a little shy: "That's right, it can be tonight."
She hadn't thought about it at first, after all, she had a lot of things to do.
It was not until he saw the radiant Yan Lingji today and heard about Jing Wei from Wei Zhuang that he felt a slight sense of crisis.
"Where are we going?"
Cheng Jiao asked quietly in Zi Nu's ear.
Zi Nu hesitated for a moment and said, "How about we go to the place where I used to live?"
Cheng Jiao remembered that Zi Nu once told him that she spent her childhood in the cold palace.
"Cold Palace? Is there something there?"
Zi Nu said shyly: "I went back secretly before and cleaned up an inner room. It's very hidden."
Cheng Jiao understood and was afraid that Zi Nu had this intention a long time ago.
"I didn't realize that Xiao Zi is quite thoughtful. Let's go to the cold palace tonight and spend a night alone together."
Zi Nu was very happy listening to Cheng Jiao's teasing and anticipation.
Looking at Zi Nu's sweet appearance, Cheng Jiao leaned close to her ear.
"But you have to listen to me, okay?"
Zi Nu's cheeks flushed. She knew that as long as Cheng Jiao said such words, he was going to play some tricks again.
She didn't object, nor did she want to object.
The last time Cheng Jiao played with her, she felt very comfortable. Therefore, she was not repulsed by Cheng Jiao's words. Instead, she felt a little excited.
"Can we, um, watch the moon first? Judging from the astronomical phenomena, the moon will be very good tonight. And it's been a while since I watched the moon with you."
Zi Nu missed the tenderness she and Cheng Jiao had spent under the moon that night.
Cheng Jiao brushed the hair on the side of Zi Nu's face and said with a smile: "Remember to warm up a pot of wine."
Zi Nu lay peacefully on Cheng Jiao's chest, looking forward to what would happen tonight.
