Chapter 124: Forming an alliance with Queen Crystal?
After a few drinks, Queen Crystal's cheeks became even more delicate and alluring, like a ripe peach, making one want to take a bite.
Her alcohol tolerance is certainly not that low; it's just that the alcohol doesn't make her drunk, but she gets drunk on her own.
Especially her eyes, they were truly captivating.
It wouldn't be accurate to say she was full of tender affection; a woman like her wouldn't fall in love easily. Her eyes held a kind of desire.
Just as a person who has been thirsty for too long will naturally feel excited and their eyes will light up when they suddenly see a water source.
Seeing Queen Crystal slowly lean over, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, Gu Yu subconsciously glanced at the door.
He asked, "Your Majesty, the King won't come, will he? If he does, I'm afraid I'll be in big trouble."
If someone catches me doing this, will I get castrated?
Upon hearing this, the Queen couldn't help but sneer, "Don't worry, he only comes a few times a year—"
That's a bit too suggestive.
He paused, then added, "Besides, even if the king knew you were here, do you think he would care?"
This isn't just a hint; it's blatant blatant disregard for props.
Gu Yu: "Huh?"
"Gu Bingwei, you still know too little about royal affairs."
Gu Yu replied modestly, "Yes, yes, I am merely an outsider and naturally do not know much about royal affairs."
Do you know why I summoned you here today?
"Your humble servant is unaware."
Queen Crystal glanced at Gu Yu and said, "Come sit here, sit next to me, and I'll tell you."
"Huh? This...isn't that a bit inappropriate? What if—"
Before he could finish speaking, Queen Jing snorted, "Just sit down when I tell you to. Are you afraid I'll eat you up?"
The way these words are spoken is utterly contrary to the natural order.
Gu Yu sat down and whispered in Queen Jing's ear, "This humble subject is not afraid of the Queen, but afraid that Your Majesty will devour this humble subject."
O
"Hiss~"
Queen Crystal laughed so hard she nearly fell into Gu Yu's arms.
Although the two were still a little distance apart, Gu Yu could faintly feel a warmth emanating from her body, accompanied by a peculiar fragrance.
Whether it was the scent of rouge or her natural body fragrance, it was captivating and enchanting.
"You should be careful—" Queen Jing said reproachfully, raising her slender white finger to tap Gu Yu's forehead. "Who knows, maybe one day His Majesty will really make you—"
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Yu hurriedly said, "Don't mention it! Please don't mention it. I am not the Marquis of Julu, and I don't have his hobbies."
"Oh? So you know about the Marquis of Julu?"
"this----"
"Alright, enough about you. Even the people of Handan know how he was made a marquis."
Gu Yu didn't want to continue this topic and asked, "What did the Queen summon me for?"
Queen Crystal leaned closer and whispered, "Because someone wants to harm you."
"what?"
Startled, Gu Yu grabbed Queen Jing tightly.
"Your Majesty, please don't frighten me. I am very timid."
The atmosphere had been building up for so long, and when Gu Yu embraced her, the captivating masculine energy made Queen Crystal's delicate body tremble. A surge of heat rushed to her head, and she leaned into Gu Yu's arms.
"queen----"
"hold me."
Queen Crystal murmured.
So Gu Yu hugged her tightly, looked at her full, alluring lips, and kissed her without hesitation.
At this moment, Gu Yu felt an unprecedented sense of accomplishment.
After all, she is a queen.
Those who understand know that the trivial matters between men and women are essentially the same, with no significant differences.
As some people say, once the lights are off, isn't everything the same?
Therefore, the most important factor is actually psychological.
The more noble a woman is, the harder she is to obtain. The more famous a woman is, the harder she is to obtain; this is a universal truth.
Because it is hard to obtain, the psychological stimulation is naturally far greater than the physiological stimulation.
Unfortunately, Gu Yu underestimated Queen Crystal's self-control.
His hands had already begun to conquer cities and territories, thinking that he could take the most noble woman in the Zhao state today.
Unexpectedly, at the crucial moment, Queen Crystal suddenly gripped his hand tightly, panting, "No—"
Gu Yu was speechless.
It's like lighting a firecracker. It's already lit, and then you suddenly tell me I can't set it off.
Queen Jing naturally understood Gu Yu's feelings. Like a gentle wife, she kissed him on the cheek and whispered in his ear, "Let's do it another day. I have something important to discuss with you today."
She even used "people" in her speech; what a devil!
Gu Yu replied helplessly, "What important matter?"
Queen Jing's expression hardened, and she said, "Are you aware that you are about to be sent as an envoy to the State of Wei?"
"An envoy to the State of Wei?"
Gu Yu was taken aback.
"Yes! There are two main reasons for sending you as an envoy to Wei: first, to escort Lady Pingyuan and her son to Wei to visit relatives; and second, to send the princess to Wei to get married."
"But I haven't heard of that, and why would Your Majesty send a mere guard like me on such an important matter?"
Lady Pingyuan was the mother of Lord Shaoyuan, Zhao De.
Her identity was somewhat special; her husband was Lord Pingyuan, one of the Four Lords of the Warring States period, and her younger brother was Lord Xinling of Wei, Wei Wuji, who was also one of the Four Lords of the Warring States period.
The princess's name was Zhao Qian. She was slightly older than Zhao Dao. Her birth mother was a concubine in the harem who had passed away a few years ago.
Queen Jing replied, "That's precisely the problem. Logically speaking, when escorting the princess to her wedding, a general should have been sent to escort her, not just a guard like you."
Gu Yu said, "Please enlighten me, Your Majesty."
Queen Jing sighed: "You probably can't guess, but it was Zhao Mu who strongly recommended you to the King."
"The Marquis of Julu? Why would he recommend a subordinate?"
Queen Jing explained, "I've heard about your conflict with him. Given his personality, how could he let you off so easily?"
"Does the Queen mean that this trip is dangerous?"
"In Handan, he can't act openly. But once you leave Handan, he'll have no scruples."
Gu Yu couldn't help but ask, "Why did the Queen tell me these things?"
Queen Crystal did not answer directly, but instead asked, "Have you considered who your greatest enemy will be once you climb to a high position?"
Gu Yu blurted out, "Zhao Mu!"
"That's right! With his current power, he will not allow anyone to threaten his position. And you are a thorn in his side, someone he must get rid of as soon as possible. Not to mention, you once humiliated him in the street."
"Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty. I will be careful."
"Yes, it's good that you know. However, you shouldn't reveal this to anyone yet, because the King is still making arrangements and hasn't made a final decision."
"Your Majesty, rest assured, your humble servant will keep this a secret."
"Alright, you can go back now. If you receive a mission to go to the State of Wei, remember to be extra careful along the way, and be wary of those accompanying you as well."
Gu Yu knew that the reason she told him these things was simply to try to pull him into her camp and work together to deal with Zhao Mu.
In a way, it's a good thing; having more friends is always better than having more rivals.
"Your humble servant will take his leave now!"
After saying that, Gu Yu couldn't help but pat Crystal King's hind leg before standing up.
"snort!
'
Queen Crystal snorted, but it sounded more like she was being coquettish.
This woman is quite cunning; she knows how to play hard to get and keep people in suspense.
