Farming with kids: My deceased husband returns and I spoil him rotten.
Chapter 477: Cooperating with Him
Zhuge Tian didn't care about Shang Qing's words at all. He only wanted her as a person, and her thoughts were not important for the time being.
"You haven't tried this before. Hurry up and try it to see if it's your favorite flavor. If you don't like it, I'll have someone prepare other snacks."
Zhuge Tian looked at Shang Qing and said very seriously.
Although I don't want to see Zhuge Tian, I still have to eat what I need to eat, after all, I can't neglect myself.
Shang Qing placed the food directly in front of him, picked up his chopsticks, took a bite, and then looked up at Zhuge Tianwen, asking, "The High Priest has a habit of watching people eat."
"I'm not interested in how other people eat, but I like watching you eat, seeing what you like to eat, and I'll prepare it for you often in the future."
Zhuge Tian's eyes curved slightly, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
Shang Qing picked up a piece of food and said casually, "Hu cuisine is fine to try once or twice, but if I keep eating it..."
At this point, Shang Qing gave a cold laugh: "I might not be able to stand it. I still prefer the food from the Central Plains. I'm really not used to it here."
Zhuge Tian sighed: "You don't need to keep telling me you're from the Central Plains. Anyway, I'm going to have you, unless you really have the ability to escape from here."
"Oh, I forgot, you also need to be able to rescue the soldiers you brought with you, that's how it will work."
Zhuge Tian glanced at Shang Qing with a detached look, a mocking expression on his face.
Seeing the smile on his face, Shang Qing also suddenly laughed. She ate her food while laughing, and looked at Zhuge Tian as if she were looking at an idiot.
Upon seeing her gaze, Zhuge Tian frowned deeply: "What do you mean by that look? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Everyone says the High Priest is a smart man, but in my opinion, you are simply an incompetent piece of trash, and not smart at all," Shang Qing said expressionlessly.
"What do you mean by that?" Zhuge Tian asked.
When Shang Qing saw that he was anxious, he wasn't anxious at all. She lowered her head and continued eating the food in front of her, occasionally taking a bite of a pastry.
Zhuge Tian was eager to know what she meant, but she wasn't in a hurry at all; instead, she ate her food slowly and deliberately.
Shang Qing enjoyed his meal while watching Zhuge Tian's anxious expression, feeling quite pleased with himself.
"Stop eating! How dare you call me a piece of trash? Do you think I'm too good to you, so you can act recklessly in front of me?"
Zhuge Tian narrowed his eyes slightly: "I do want to have you, and I don't even want to hurt you."
As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Shang Qing by the neck: "But if you insult me, don't blame me for being impolite. Do you believe I'll kill you?"
"It seems the High Priest is concerned about whether others see you as a smart person or a good-for-nothing. In my eyes, you are quite smart, but..."
Shang Qing deliberately left her sentence unfinished, instead glancing down at the hand gripping her neck, then looking up at Zhuge Tian.
Zhuge Tian released his hand and said calmly, "Continue."
"But in the king's eyes, you are a piece of trash. After all, you can't even see through such a small thing. How can you be considered a smart person?"
Shang Qing continued eating his meal, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Zhuge Tian looked at Shang Qing: "Do you know something? Tell me quickly."
"Has the High Priest not discovered this yet? Aren't you curious why your King suddenly arranged this marriage for us? He doesn't even want me."
Shang Qing put down his chopsticks, looked up at Zhuge Tian, and took the initiative to remind him.
Zhuge Tian's expression changed immediately. He realized something was wrong. Yes, the king was very dissatisfied with Shang Qing's feigned timidity earlier.
They kept saying she was not good enough for Zhuge Tian, but today the people who came to congratulate him suddenly said that the king was going to bestow a marriage upon them, and let everyone know that he had someone he was in love with.
That's really wrong. If he were truly dissatisfied, he wouldn't let the people know.
Zhuge Tian looked at Shang Qing: "Do you know something?"
"I know nothing. I'm just guessing. The king hasn't asked about my identity. Haven't you ever considered that he might know who I am?"
Shang Qing directly pointed out the inappropriateness of the king's actions.
“I am Gu Yu’s man. I’ve been here for so long, how could he not know anything about me? If that’s really the case, then his position as king is really meaningless.”
Zhuge Tian was intelligent and quickly understood the king's intention. If he really married Gu Yu's woman, he would likely be accused of treason and collusion with the enemy, and Gu Yu's fate would be his.
Thinking of this, Zhuge Tian broke out in a cold sweat, guessing that the king might have secretly reached some kind of consensus with the emperor.
Both Gu Yu and he were war gods of their respective countries. The king and emperor might kill them on the condition of peace. Under the condition of national peace, there is naturally no need for war gods to hold heavy troops and threaten their own power.
Seeing Zhuge Tian's expression, Shang Qing smiled slightly: "It seems the High Priest has figured it out. Now, what do you want to do?"
"You did this on purpose. You knew all along that the king would do this, so you deliberately told me this now so that I would release you."
Zhuge Tian looked up at Shang Qing. He knew she was very intelligent, and he guessed that she must have already guessed what was going on.
Shang Qing shook his head: "High Priest thinks too highly of me. I only thought of this after you locked me up here. I didn't think that much about it at first."
"I just feel that Your Majesty's actions are a bit inappropriate, and besides, so many of us have suddenly appeared, and we're not even Hu people. This is Hu territory."
"Does he really not know we're here? Does he really not know who we are? If he does know, what is his purpose in doing this?"
"Think about it a little deeper, and everything will become clear. High Priest, you are the God of War, and you hold military power and are loved by the people. If you were the king, do you think you would allow such a person to exist?"
Shang Qing looked at Zhuge Tian seriously. How could he allow others to sleep soundly on his bed?
Zhuge Tian understood Shang Qing's meaning, and he looked at her and said, "I want to cooperate with you."
"Cooperate with me? I can't help you with anything." Shang Qing spread his hands helplessly.
"No, only you can help me. Since he wants me to get what I want, I can't let his wish fall through. So only you can help me."
Zhuge Tian said, word by word, "We are two people who are deeply in love. We need to convince not only the King, but also everyone else. What do you think?"
"No one will refuse the High Priest's offer of help, but I hope the High Priest will remember what he promised me."
