Chapter 768 Black-Hearted Couple (5)
Xie Jingxing looked at her with appreciation and said, "Smart."
“You already knew this?” Shen Miao was a little skeptical.
"This was Shen Dongling's idea," Xie Jingxing casually picked up a piece of cake and took a bite, then said, "Let Huangfu Hao and the Crown Prince reach an agreement and put on a show together. They'll form an alliance with Mingqi on the condition that you marry Huangfu Hao. Otherwise, the alliance will break down, and they might attack Mingqi. When this news gets out, the people will panic and ask Shen Xin to marry you to Huangfu Hao. With the people on one side and you on the other, Shen Xin will definitely be extremely distressed.
But no one in the world dared to oppose Huangfu Hao. Only the Crown Prince came forward at this time, saying that you and the Crown Prince had already been engaged. Compared to marrying you far away to Qin, Chen Xin would be more likely to accept you marrying the Crown Prince and staying in Mingqi, and would even be grateful to the Crown Prince for it. Xie Jingxing shrugged: "Your concubine sister is not a simple character either."
Shen Miaoting's face turned ashen as she sneered, "She's really been working hard for me."
He actually used the people of the world to threaten Shen Xin. The family inheritance he inherited from General Shen was to fight for the people of the dawn. When Shen Xin was threatened by the people he loved so much, and on the other side was his own daughter Shen Miao, one can imagine the pain in Shen Xin's heart. Among the people in the Shen Mansion, Shen Miao and Shen Dongling had always kept their distance from each other. Now that the first one to provoke was a despicable person, Shen Miao felt an uncontrollable disgust towards Shen Dongling.
She said, "Marriage with the prince is not possible."
Xie Jingxing stared at her with a half-smile: "Why, do you want to marry me so much?" Before Shen Miao could get angry, he said: "Don't worry, no one in the world dares to snatch things from me. I'm afraid he can't afford the woman I like."
He always spoke so recklessly and without restraint, and Shen Miao's face inexplicably turned slightly red. She changed the subject and said, "Chen Dongling plotted against me, so naturally I have to return the favor."
"Madam's meaning is my meaning." Xie Jingxing said lazily.
Shen Miao: “…”
She said, "What exactly do you mean now? Are you going to destroy Ming Qi and unify them with Daliang?"
Xie Jingxing looked a little strange. He said, "If I say yes, will you help me?"
“I’ve said before, on this point, I am the same as you.” Shen Miao replied.
The joking expression on Xie Jingxing's face gradually faded. He didn't know what Shen Miao was thinking, as if he couldn't get a glimpse of it at all. In the matter of the hostility between the two countries, Xie Jingxing had never thought that Shen Miao would support him. Shen Miao's current state of disregard had already surprised Xie Jingxing. And now Shen Miao's expression reminded him that she was serious.
She wants to destroy Mingqi?
Why?
Shen Miao was definitely not someone who was greedy for fame and fortune, so she wouldn't just agree with what he said. And if she was willing to throw Ming Qi behind her because she loved Xie Jingxing... Xie Jingxing didn't think that was likely either. It seemed that from the moment she met Shen Miao, she had been extremely hostile to the Fu family. This was certainly because the Fu family also wanted to suppress the Shen family, but Shen Miao was a girl from the boudoir, so how could she know all this? Sometimes, she saw things more clearly than Shen Xin and Shen Qiu, always standing in front of the Shen family with a protective attitude, as if she had already anticipated what would happen. The closer he got to Shen Miao, the more mysterious things he found about her. However, even the Fengxian Pawnshop couldn't figure out the reason for these behaviors.
It's really suspicious.
He hesitated for a moment and asked, "You... don't like Mingqi?"
Shen Miao lowered her eyes, "The world's general trend is that long periods of division will inevitably lead to unification, and long periods of unification will inevitably lead to division. This has been the truth since ancient times. It cannot be changed by whether I am willing or not, or whether I like it or not. Even if I don't want it or don't like it, these things will still happen. This is destined." She raised her head and looked at the slightly swaying candlelight on the table, and said, "And compared to the Fu family, I would rather this country be in your hands."
