Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

After Guo Shao said that his heart belonged, Zhou Xian asked calmly, "How did General Guo ask Mrs. Chen to arrange things for tonight?"

This sentence immediately alerted Guo Shao. He has raised many girls in his family. Although he usually does not participate in the "games" between them, he also pays attention to observe and understand the women a little bit. Women's eyes and hearts are smaller than that of men, and they can keep small things in their hearts. There are no big conflicts and small conflicts. Guo Shao still hopes that they can live in harmony so as not to affect their mood of living.

Zhou Xian's performance made Guo Shao guess: Mrs. Chen has cheated Zhou Xian, and wants to use this stunning cousin to repay her favor.

Mrs. Chen is a good friend of Guo Shao, and they have a very good relationship with each other; Guo Shao doesn't want to make Mrs. Chen difficult, and Mrs. Chen also has good intentions. What's more, Guo Shao only said that he didn't want to forcibly keep Zhou Xian in Tokyo, he didn't say that he didn't want to get close to Zhou Xian... If she really wanted to steal a man, Guo Shao couldn't ask for it.

The so-called reluctance to force really means that she does not want to hurt her; a beautiful woman like Zhou Ehuang who is favored by the creator should be loved, otherwise it would be a pity and a heartache.

"I asked Mrs. Chen to arrange it. It's nothing more than coercion and temptation!" He said immediately, "Also, I only covet your beauty, and I won't force you to stay. You just need to rest assured."

... Zhou Xian didn't dislike Guo Shao from the beginning. The first time he met him at Chen Jiali's mansion, he had the impression of a real hero. The attitude towards that embarrassed and strong man was not something that ordinary high-ranking people can do.

Today I was quite afraid of him at first, but now I am not so panicked, because Guo Shao doesn't look dangerous, he is not so polite as a villain, Zhou Xian's vigilance gradually relaxes.

She was not so panicked anymore, she paid attention to Guo Shao's appearance, and felt that this person was dignified, not as fierce as she had imagined before. He is a tall man with a sun-tanned bronze color. He looks like a man who endures hardships and stands hard work all the year round. He is completely different from Li Yu and the aristocratic men of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and has no similarities.

But under his bronzed skin, he was actually very clean, and the lining and collar were all spotless white silk. He is tall and strong, and looks very powerful, but he does not give people too much pressure, but is kind and gentle.

Now Zhou Xian not only doesn't dislike Guo Shao, but has a little liking for him... but it's just a liking, like many people she likes.

Zhou Xian didn't believe Guo Shao's "coercion and lure" when he almost patted his chest, because his words and tone were contradictory, and he felt that he was taking the responsibility for Chen Jiali... After Zhou Xian saw through Chen Jiali's first lie, she was suspected of immediately shifting responsibility to Guo Shao.

What a responsible man.

But Zhou Xian didn't want to expose Guo Shao, she relaxed and asked: "General Guo didn't intend to kill my husband?"

Guo Shaodao: "I have no grievances with him, why kill him? If it's for beauty, I will destroy the Southern Tang Kingdom first, and then use beauty as a spoil of war!"

Zhou Xian's heart trembled when she heard it, the pressure of strength made her feel suffocated for a short time.

She pursed her red lips and said softly: "Then why did General Guo arrange for Chen Jiali to force me... to serve you?"

Guo Shao seemed to be stopped by the question, his eyes showed embarrassment. After a while, he said seriously: "It's not considered persecution, I just ordered Chen Jiali to arrange it... I have admired Madam's appearance for a long time, so naturally I have a heart for Fangze... That one, I just want to make friends and see a beautiful woman who is so beautiful."

Zhou Xian has heard too many compliments and sweet words... But Guo Shao's words are plain, and the compliments are extra rewarding. She has a feeling of being respected.

"General Guo is really willing to let me go?" Zhou Xian asked hurriedly.

Guo Shaodao: "I don't want to go against Madam's wishes."

"Even if we didn't do anything, others would think that we had done something wrong." Zhou Xian said.

Guo Shao pondered: "It doesn't matter what others think."

Zhou Xian was worried that the powerful Zhou Dynasty would harm Li Yu, and she hadn't slept well for many days, and finally made up her mind... Zhou Xian could distinguish between her husband's life and her own humiliation; she hoped that she could bear the pain in exchange for Li Yu's safety and smoothness.

Beforehand, she weighed for a long time before making up her mind, and considered the consequences of Guo Shao forcibly snatching herself into the Guo Mansion, and thought of many ways. Unexpectedly, as soon as we met, I found that none of the methods I thought of could be used, and the things I thought of did not match the actual situation at all.

She relaxed even more, and finally she didn't do anything to offend her husband. Only then did she realize that she was wearing revealing clothes, and she looked like this in front of a strange man, but there was no clothes to cover her, so she pulled the skirt to cover up the scenery on her chest, but tonight there were too few clothes to cover it, so she had to cover it with her hands.

Seeing that Guo Shao's eyes were widened, Zhou Xian immediately realized that he seemed to be touching his chest with both hands, his face flushed immediately, and he quickly moved away.

"Since General Guo is sympathetic to the fragrance and cherishes the jade, and he is unwilling to force it...my clothes are disheveled, it's getting late..." Zhou Xian mustered up his courage and wanted to see off the guests.

Guo Shao looked reluctant to let go, and looked at Zhou Xian a few more times to feast his eyes, and said helplessly with disappointment: "Then let's leave, I will miss the conversation with my wife, I hope there will be a period in the future."

Zhou Xian let out a long breath, and confirmed again: "General Guo will not send your husband back to Li Hongji?"

"I'm just a general, and I don't have too much involvement in the court's political affairs and diplomacy." Guo Shaodao, "The court will consider the interests of the Great Zhou and make wise decisions; but it should not hurt your husband. These state affairs have nothing to do with Madam, so you don't have to worry about them."

Zhou Xiandao: "Does General Guo think that Da Zhou will accept Li Hongji's conditions for one million dollars?"

"This..." Guo Shao pondered, "I haven't asked anything about the Southern Tang Kingdom recently, so I'll ask about it when I meet the Empress Dowager some other day."

Zhou Xian just relaxed and became worried again. If Da Zhou sent Li Yu back to China, it would be different from killing him. She hurriedly asked: "General Guo is the minister of the Queen Mother's humerus, what should I do is not up to you?"

Guo Shao looked embarrassed, and said: "To be honest, I think the current difficulties in front of the court can't be taken care of, and I won't interfere too much in the internal affairs of the Southern Tang Kingdom for the time being. Li Hongji has become a fact of the country. If I really want to send a million guan, I'm afraid... a million guan is not a small number, and it can barely start a large-scale war; and Linghu's being the country leader is far away, and the promised conditions are just a piece of cake for Da Zhou..."

Zhou Xian's face gradually turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice, "Can General Guo help?"

Guo Shaodao: "Madam is Chen Jiali's cousin. I'm happy to provide convenience in Tokyo. But it's about the military. As a general of the Great Zhou, I can't sell the interests of my country for the sake of personal friendship. I hope Madam will understand."

What Chen Jiali said about those schemes did not deter Zhou Xian too much; but Guo Shao was different, although what he said sounded very plain, he had to be taken seriously. Zhou Xian knew that the ruler of the court was weak and his ministers were strong, and Guo Shao's current status and relationship could completely influence the national policy of Da Zhou.

Zhou Xian's heart suddenly fell into an ice cave, and she seemed to see Li Yu's expression of despair, disappointment and sadness... Maybe Zhou Xian really underestimated Li Hongji, and he sent someone to negotiate with Zhou Chao very carefully.

"General Guo!" Zhou Xian's expression froze, he bit his red lips and said, "You, what do you think I'm worth? Is it worth a million..."

"This..." Guo Shao's face also changed, "Madam, don't worry, I don't know the situation very well now, so I can't decide with a few words here."

Zhou Xiandao: "You have already seen me all, and others think I have lost my morals. I want a clear answer!"

"What do you mean Ma'am?" Guo Shao frowned.

Zhou Xian turned his face away, and said coldly: "I serve General Guo for one night, worth one million guan, you help my husband through this difficult time."

Guo Shao pondered endlessly.

"Is it because I'm not worth a million pennies?" Zhou Xian asked again.

Guo Shao waved his hand: "That's not the intention at all. Madam is a priceless treasure. But it seems that there is something wrong with me taking important national affairs for my own lust."

Zhou Xian thought in his heart, what he said was right, if it was only for sex, he could directly use strong ones without paying any price. Guo Shao restrained his desires because he respected himself.

It's really like man is a knife and I am a fish, and I don't even have the capital to bargain.

"General Guo, if our husband and wife are sent back to the country, my experience will definitely be miserable. Li Hongji will not let me go..." Zhou Xian said pitifully, almost on the verge of tears, "I have no choice but to die."

Guo Shao showed pity on his face, but his expression was already shaken.

Zhou Xian moved his position, and sat next to Guo Shao, and suddenly smelled a very faint breath, which made her body limp, "General Guo has a heroic spirit, doesn't he have any sympathy?"

I saw that Guo Shao's whole body was tense, sitting there upright, looking very nervous.

After a long time, he finally nodded vigorously, and said cheerfully: "It's fine, even if it's a deal... I can't bear it anymore. Since I have won the favor of my wife, I will definitely try my best to influence this national policy in return."

After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, only to see that his palm was trembling, and he didn't know where Zhou Xian was in the air.

Zhou Xian's heart froze, he raised his head and closed his eyes, suddenly felt sore, a line of clear tears fell from the corner of his eyes. He choked up and said, "There are two conditions, you just need to lift my skirt, you can't touch my other parts; you can't tell it...you can't force me to stay in Tokyo."

Guo Shao said bluntly, "Okay."

Zhou Xian thought to himself, it was just a nightmare, it was just a torture, he gritted his teeth and endured it... Anyway, it didn't take half a stick of incense time.
