Ye Qingwan sat on the ground, looked up, saw a glowing person, and an idea popped into her mind.

Behold, he became light.

I was so afraid that he would suddenly take out his magic wand and shout.

Tiga!

But he didn't, he just bent down and picked her up from the ground: "Why are you sitting on the ground? Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

Ye Qingwan was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses and made sure that she was not mistaken.

Yes, this is the old Taifu, our country’s general, who appeared in the enemy’s military camp.

"Why are you here? Did they arrest you too?"

Liu Sheng smiled and put her on the bed, saying, "Do I look like someone who has been arrested?"

Ye Qingwan looked at him, then looked at herself, it was indeed not the case.

"You've seen the person, can we talk now?" The client followed them and allowed Liu Sheng to untie the ropes on Ye Qingwan one by one.

After Liu Sheng untied the rope, he rubbed her wrist without even raising his head: "What are you talking about?"

Client: ? ?

"Talk about your surrender? What else can we talk about?"

Are you kidding me?

But it's too early to regret now. You two are still trapped in my jar.

Liu Sheng seemed to have heard a very funny joke, and looked at her with raised eyebrows: "Surrender? Are you kidding me? I am the Grand Tutor of Dayu, the General of Zhennan, and I am responsible for the lives and property of thousands of people in Dayu. Do you think I can surrender?"

The client was annoyed: "What do you mean? Why are you coming to me to die if you don't surrender?"

Liu Sheng didn't care about her threats at all: "It's impossible for me to surrender, but I can exchange with you."

The client frowned: "Change what?"

"Take me in exchange for her."

Ye Qingwan and the client were both stunned. Is this... a hostage exchange?

Without waiting for Ye Qingwan to speak, the client sneered, "Why should I change? Now both of you are in my hands, I can let neither of you go."

Liu Sheng seemed to have expected this, and laughed happily and mockingly: "You are so smart, you have taken all the benefits? It seems that you are the only smart person in the world, and everyone else is stupid?"

The client was very annoyed by his sarcastic tone: "If you have something to say, just say it. I hate intellectuals like you. You beat around the bush when you speak. Who are you scolding?"

Just scold whoever is stupid.

Liu Sheng was too lazy to argue with her and said directly: "I have already made arrangements before coming here. If Ye Qingwan and I cannot return before sunset, then my 300,000-strong army will all be pressed under your city walls."

"You don't have to let us go, but you have to be able to withstand the beating."

Liu Sheng's toughness not only shocked the client, but also Ye Qingwan.

You're on someone else's territory, and you want to beat them up?!

You are really awesome.

She is more powerful than me, a vicious female supporting role who holds the script in her left hand and the system in her right hand.

Although the old tutor is black-bellied, he usually behaves like a modest gentleman to everyone. But today he seems like he has eaten a powder keg, with a sharp tongue and is easily explosive.

"You..." The client was furious and knew that this civil servant was up to no good.

Now, am I holding the emperor hostage to control the princes, or is he holding the emperor hostage to control the princes? Do I have to listen to his orders or look at his face when I release the people?

"You won't lose out by trading an enemy general for a woman who has no impact on the war."

There was an unconcealable coldness in Liu Sheng's words, without any of his usual gentleness and humility.

After thinking about it carefully, the client felt that it was indeed not a loss.

If Liu Sheng hadn't been there, they would have already broken through the isolated city and headed south. By now, they would have probably reached Dayu's capital with great force.

It was his arrival that turned the tide of the war, and if they killed him now, even if they couldn't capture the isolated city, at least they could buy them a chance to catch their breath.

Just when she decided to make this deal, Ye Qingwan suddenly said, "If you exchange me for him now, the emperor will definitely send my father to replace him, and you will be beaten just the same then."

After she reminded him, the client suddenly realized what was going on. If she really exchanged him for Ye Qingwan, and the prime minister took his place, wouldn't she have nothing to rely on?

If Ye Qingwan is kept, she can at least threaten the Prime Minister.

It was a close call. I almost got fooled.

People say that civil servants are cunning, and this reputation is indeed well-deserved.

Liu Sheng frowned and looked at Ye Qingwan silently, with some emotions in his eyes that Ye Qingwan could not understand.

Ye Qingwan knew that she was in the wrong, so she pointed to the window outside and said with a playful smile: "Wow, Master, look, the sun is so bright today."

Liu Sheng finally smiled and shook his head helplessly: "You are the best at making jokes."

"Hehe." Ye Qingwan scratched her head embarrassedly.

He reached out to tidy up her hair, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I can't trade you for the millions of people in Jiangnan. I'm useless."

Ye Qingwan: ...

Brother, please don't be like this. It makes me feel uncomfortable.

In fact, you have not done anything unfair to me. You are the second male lead, and I am the vicious female supporting role. It is right for you not to replace me. If you replace me, then you would be doing me an unfair favor.

And I'm not going to die, so why make you so sad? It makes me want to cry.

Ye Qingwan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly opened her arms and gave him a hug. Just as she was about to say something to comfort him, the system started whining like a turtle.

Okay, okay, just shut up.

He is not good at anything and is the best at causing trouble.

Ye Qingwan had no choice but to act like a green tea girl and whined, "Master, you don't have to worry about me. It is my blessing to die for the people of Dayu and for you, Master."

Liu Sheng: ...

Client: …

That’s not what you said before. What happened? Are you suddenly possessed by a ghost?

Ye Qingwan ignored their speechless expressions and gently pushed the old tutor: "Master, go now. Don't worry about me. I will die without regrets for you."

Client: Ugh~

Liu Sheng grabbed her hand that was pushing him, pulled her into his arms, and hugged her tightly, with such force that he wanted to squeeze her into his arms: "If you really die, remember to walk slower and wait for me."

Ye Qingwan didn't know what to say for a moment, so she quickly pulled out the system and took a look around.

[It’s over, Barbie Q is over, it’s over. 】

[Excuse me, if a handsome man hugs you tenderly and says he wants to die with you, what should you do? Waiting online, very urgent. ]

[How about I die now? It would be bad to disappoint the handsome guy, right? ]

[I don't want to either, but he's a handsome guy. ]

[Old Master, although your character can be destroyed, mine cannot be destroyed, so can you please stop bullying me? ]

[Don’t you know that handsome guys are deadly? ]

[Especially a handsome guy like you, really, I would feel like I am committing a crime if I don't take this opportunity to kiss you.]

Liu Sheng, who was originally quite sad, was completely broken down by her complaints and burst out laughing.

"Master, what are you laughing at?" Ye Qingwan looked at him in confusion.

He suddenly grabbed the back of her head, leaned forward and kissed her lips.

I don't want to do that either, but you said it's a crime, and I don't want you to commit a crime.

The client at this moment: ? ?

It’s bad enough that you two were hugging and kissing in my territory, but now you’re actually kissing in front of me?

You think I'm dead?!
