Good.
Chu Zhi nodded.
She didn't expect that seventeen would cooperate so easily, which was easier than she thought.
When she looked out of the window again, Ah Xiang had disappeared.
I think I heard what seventeen said.
Chu Zhi tutted: "remember what you said, don't regret it!"
After waiting for 17 to leave, Han Zhan said, "now you have interpreted the villains incisively and vividly."
"I don't want to." Chu Zhi stretched out his hand to support his cheek, "but there are too many doubts about seventeen. I can only make such a bad decision."
"Do you think seventeen will take the bait?"
"Will you see it?"
At first, Chu Zhi only wanted to use 17 to find out what the current situation of slaves in Chu was. Later, he found that 17 was very wrong.
Although he was a slave, his every move was elegant and noble.
At first, Chu Zhi thought he was an official who had committed a crime, so he would be polite.
Until later, it was found that many of his rituals came from the court.
In other words, only the palace can cultivate such an appearance.
And he has been practicing since childhood and integrated into his bones.
Have you ever seen a royal slave?
Therefore, Chu Zhi will use ah Xiang to test the bottom line of seventeen.
……
After coming out of Chu Zhi's room, Shiqi found Ah Xiang.
"You made a deal with her, and you became her slave for me?"
Ah Xiang's face was pale. It was obvious that what she had just heard turned into a knife and pierced her heart.
"No, you think too much."
Seventeen silent: "I'm not worth it."
"Why?" Ah Xiang looked up at seventeen. "Why isn't it worth it?"
"I..."
Seventeen dumb words.
People like him don't deserve it at all.
Besides, emotion is what he hates most and disgusts most.
He is a man who wants revenge. He will never let anyone and any feelings get in the way.
"Because you don't love me." Ah Xiang took his words and said. She smiled with self mockery and Gu Yong with moths flying to the fire. "I heard what you just said to the master. You don't like me at all. You allowed me to approach you and used me to escape from the slave group. I know..."
Seventeen eyes tighten.
"But I don't blame you." Ah Xiang said slowly to shang17's eyes, "I really want to save you. Even if you don't use me, I will save you. From the moment you receive me in the valley, my life is given by you, so even if you use me, I will still be good to you."
The air fell silent.
Half a ring.
Seventeen asked in a hoarse voice, "why?"
He's not worth it!
"You never need a reason to be nice to a person." Ah Xiang pursed her lips and lowered her eyelids. "I don't know what you want to do when you use me to escape, but I know that you want to go to Kyoto in your heart. I know... When you get to Kyoto, you do what you want to do. I will follow the master in the future..."
I'm afraid there will be no future.
After all, she wants to be a slave.
Ah Xiang pretended to be relaxed and smiled: "seventeen, I wish you all the best in your life."
Ah Xiang finished this sentence and asked him out of the room without waiting for his reaction. He didn't even give him a chance to explain.
Seventeen stared at Ah Xiang's room, looked for a while, turned and left.
Soon after seventeen left, Qingyi appeared in Chu Zhi's room and told Chu Zhi and Han Zhan their dialogue.
Han Zhan listened and took the lead in saying with a smile, "the fish has finally taken the bait. It seems that your plan will be realized soon."
……
The next day.
The team continued to set out.
Three days later, they will arrive in Kyoto, the state of Chu.
After the team set out, seventeen found Chu Zhi and said he would serve Chu Zhi instead of Ah Xiang.
He said he was serving. In fact, he wanted Chu Zhi to take back his decision. He didn't want Ah Xiang to be a slave.
He didn't need anyone to replace him in his seventeen year life.
Chu Zhi pretended not to know the intention of seventeen. "Ah Xiang has been burning incense and making tea for me these days. Since you want to do it for her, you should continue to do her work."
Seventeen didn't move.
"Go down if you don't want to." Chu Zhi showed no mercy.
Seventeen clenched his teeth, took a deep breath and bowed his head to cook tea.
Chu Zhi stared at him.
After the tea is cooked, pass the cup to Chu.
"Mute?"
Seventeen looked up: "don't deceive people too much!"
"Go down!" Chu Zhi said coldly, "I said, I never encourage people."
Seventeen closed his eyes and finally compromised: "master, please have tea."
Chu Zhi took the cup and put it aside: "burn incense."
This time, do it.
"The tea is cold."
Seventeen stretched out his hand to carry the tea and planned to change Chu Zhi's cup again.
I only heard Chu Zhi's secluded way: "the action of boiling tea and burning incense goes through the clouds and water at one go. It can be seen that the court etiquette is used when you urinate and buckle tea, so can you tell me why you, a slave, can learn the court etiquette?"
Seventeen eyes tightened, his wrist shook hard, and almost knocked over the tea lamp in his hand.
Sure enough.
Chu Zhi said with a smile, "you really are a member of the royal family."
Seventeen, a heart came up to his throat, and a cold sweat oozed from his forehead.
Half a ring.
He just spoke.
"So? You're going to kill me, aren't you?"
Seventeen knew that from the moment he was found, there was no doubt that he would die.
Sure enough, he shouldn't have been soft hearted.
It's just an orphan girl. Why did he come to beg for mercy?
In the seventeen, Chu Zhi opened his mouth slowly.
"I won't kill you. On the contrary, I will reuse you."
"Joke!" Seventeen sneered, "it's fun to tease me?"
"I didn't tease you. I know you're for Ah Xiang. I can promise you that I won't call Ah Xiang a slave and only be a servant girl around me."
"Condition."
"I like to deal with smart people," Chu Zhi said, "You've been a slave before and know what the life of a slave is like. When you return to Kyoto, I'll rearrange your identity and ask you to take charge of the slaves in Kyoto as a coach. Find out how those slaves came from, where they went, and which ministers are raising them. If you can cooperate with me well, I'll protect Ah Xiang and keep her safe I have no worries about food. When things are done, I will set her free. "
Chu Zhi said cooperation, not task.
Seventeen naturally understand the key.
"How long?"
"It depends on your ability. If you can find out these for me as soon as possible, I can ask Ah Xiang to restore his freedom as soon as possible."
17: "Why should I trust you?"
"Now it's not whether you believe me or not, but whether you have any other choice?"
Up to now, what else do you not understand.
"So you did it on purpose from the beginning."
"Not too stupid."
"Sure enough!" Seventeen clenched his teeth. "I knew you were a sinister and vicious woman. You're not a good thing!"
"Scold! If you scold me more, I will torture Ah Xiang more. Of course, you can say you don't care, but it doesn't matter. Who calls Ah Xiang like you? As long as I can vent my anger!"
Seventeen Qi trembled all over, but there was nothing to do.
Finally, he bowed his head: "OK, I promise you."
Chu Zhi was finally satisfied: "it's over so soon! Why should I take this time."
It's really cheap and good.
