Chapter 59 Marriage Contract(2/2)
"What you said is true?" Zhao Si asked.
"Young man... You are truthful in everything you say, and you will never lie to me." He lowered his head and let the beads of sweat fall on the floor tiles in front of him.
"Oh? Since others break the contract, it's not up to you, so that's fine." Zhang Dun laughed and said, "It seems that His Highness King Jian doesn't have to break his promise to others."
Zhao Si smiled and asked: "Then are you willing to marry Hualu as your wife?"
"Reply... Your Majesty, I am flattered. Everything is decided by Your Majesty." Cheng Yu found that his tongue was trembling, and then his body was also trembling.
Zhao Si nodded and said: "In that case, I will tell you the truth. You married Huanhu as my wife, and you have been by my side since then. Your benefits will be indispensable when doing things for me in the future."
Cheng Yu was like holding a lone boat sailing through the strong winds and waves. Even though it was extremely thrilling, his heart was still full of excitement. He seemed to see the road paved with gold unfolding under his feet. As long as he stepped on it, glory and wealth would be at his fingertips.
He was still trembling, but the trembling at this time was caused by extreme excitement. He kowtowed repeatedly in thanks. Apart from thanking Zhao Shi for his kindness, he didn't know what else to do.
"However, I have to put my ugly words to the forefront." Zhao Si's tone became solemn: "If what you said today is untrue, you concealed your engagement, or you failed in the future, I can't spare you."
Cheng Yu's heart twitched slightly. Did he lose to Hu Hu? How is that possible? That girl is cute and cute, and she is also a complete beauty. Besides, she is from the palace, so he will definitely treat her with great kindness. This
He had full confidence in this matter.
However, he did lie about his engagement. This lie was like a dark cloud, deeply shrouding his heart.
Zhao Si saw that he stayed on the spot and did not answer, so he asked: "Did you hear clearly?"
"Yes, I understand." After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he kowtowed deeply.
Zhao Si was quite satisfied, so he picked up a piece of pastry and handed it to him, saying, "I hope you won't disappoint me. Come, have a piece of pastry."
"Thank you... thank you, Your Majesty." Cheng Yucheng took the cake in fear, his hands still shaking uncontrollably.
"Eat it, no need to be formal." Zhao Si also picked up a piece of pastry and started eating it.
Cheng Yu looked at him, then at Zhang Dun who was sipping tea, and took a reserved bite of the pastry in his hand. As he chewed it with his teeth, his nervous heart gradually calmed down.
After Cheng Yu had gone out for a while, Zhang Dun was still thinking carefully and said, "This man is quite a sharp knife."
Zhao Si laughed and said, "I don't know whether it is a sharp blade or not. All I know is that Zhao Ji's life is already in my hands."
Zhang Dun also laughed and said: "Your Majesty is going to carry out the story of Jing Ke and assassinate Qin, but why don't you use Liu Dadao?"
"Hmph! A group of grass bandits!" Zhao Si glanced at him with disdain and said: "People's hearts are separated from each other. After all, they are not of the same mind as us. Today I have done a great favor to Cheng Yu, and he will be broken into pieces in return. Mr. Zhang, there is
Sometimes, we don’t need much courage, we just need some gratitude to others.”
"Loyalty is more important than talent?" Zhang Dun asked with a smile.
Zhao Si picked up the tea bowl and said, "Correct answer." Then he sipped the tea with interest.
