The second concubine had intended to comfort the First Madam, but she had hit the First Madam's sore spot. 1357924?
Although she was Li Qian's wife, she didn't even have the chance to be loved by Li Qian because of her mediocre appearance. If it weren't for her background, Li Qian would have divorced her 800 years ago.
Although the second concubine was cursing Jiujiu, she was also implying that she couldn't be raped. A cold light flashed through the First Madam's eyes. She clenched her fingers and gritted her teeth, saying, "Let's call it a day."
The second concubine wanted to comfort her, but she opened her mouth. When she saw the first madam's livid face, she silently swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and obediently left.
Huazhi glanced at the First Madam and the second concubine disdainfully. There was a trace of disdain in her heart. "A group of short-sighted women. Li Qian is a formidable man. How can he be hindered by love? This Ruyan is probably just venting her desire."
Only she, Huazhi, could become Li Qian's ultimate soul mate and stand in the position admired by thousands of people with him.
Thinking about her future, the corners of Huazhi's mouth curled up. She then strolled towards her courtyard.
It was rumored that Li Qian was the most indifferent to the Third Madam, but in fact, Li Qian loved her the most. Only in front of her would she show that gentle smile.
Huazhi smiled proudly. When she returned to the courtyard, she saw Adjutant Li, who had just gone to the First Madam's courtyard to deliver a message, at the door as expected.
Huazhi raised her eyebrows slightly and asked with concern, "Is Mr. Li coming today?"
Adjutant Li still had a smile on his face. Looking carefully, he was the same as facing the First Madam. However, Huazhi was so anxious to know Li Qian's whereabouts that she didn't notice Adjutant Li's attitude at all.
Adjutant Li said softly, "The marshal is at the Fourth Madam's today. He asked someone to tell you to have an early rest. You don't have to wait for him today."
"Ah, there again?" Huazhi frowned, and her delicate little face was full of disappointment. After a long time, she whispered, "When will the marshal come to me?"
Adjutant Li still replied with a smile, "I don't know. Since the Third Madam already knows, I'll go back and report. Goodbye."
Adjutant Li finished speaking, took a deep look at Huazhi, and then turned to leave.
Huazhi looked at Adjutant Li's back and pursed her lips in disappointment. She thought to herself, "If Adjutant Li hadn't become Li Qian's right-hand man in the future, she wouldn't have been so nice."
Adjutant Li walked out of Huazhi's's's's's's..
He knocked on the door and heard Li Qian's cold voice. "Come in."
Seeing that it was Adjutant Li, Li Qian raised his eyelids and smirked. His handsome face was full of sarcasm. "What did that idiot ask you again?"
Adjutant Li lowered his eyes. "Ask the marshal if you're going to her place today."
"Hmph! She's just a plaything." Li Qian snorted disdainfully. Then, he continued to talk to Adjutant Li about his cooperation with the Nanyang Warlord, Ye Tian.
Divided for a long time, united for a long time, divided for a long time. This was an immutable law. However, the Empire was now divided into four parts by the warlords. Although Shuzhou occupied the largest territory, it was in the worst geographical position. Even if she was well-equipped, she would be at a disadvantage if she really fought.
According to Huazhi's description, at this time next year, Nanyang's Ye Tian and Beiyu's He Tai, the two warlords, would form an alliance to suppress him. Although he had formed an alliance with the eldest madam's father, Xiao Zilin, Xiao Zilin was ambitious and was not a good partner at all.
If Ye Tian and He Tai attacked her, Xiao Zilin would be merciful if he didn't stab her in the back.
If she wanted to gain the upper hand, she had to form an alliance with Ye Tian before He Tai did. Then, she would help Ye Tian subdue He Tai and bite Ye Tian in the back. At that time, the huge Empire would be hers.
Huazhi's words were simple, but unfortunately, it was difficult to carry out.
Although Ye Tian also wanted to find someone to form an alliance with, he was nearly 50 years old and had a changeable and cunning personality. In addition, his wife and He Tai's wife had once been close friends. Coupled with his relationship with Xiao Zilin, Ye Tian was more inclined to cooperate with He Tai first before splitting the territory with him.
However …
There were no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. She didn't believe that Ye Tian wouldn't be tempted by such great benefits.
Li Qian rubbed her forehead, which was aching from thinking too much, and asked Adjutant Li, "What does Ye Tian say?"
"Ye Tian is more inclined to cooperate with He Tai, but your conditions are more generous, so Ye Tian is hesitating."
"Hesitating?" Li Qian chuckled. "It's always good to hesitate. Since he's hesitating, help him add fuel to the fire. By the way, when it's done, have someone release the prophecy of Huazhi."
Adjutant Li's expression froze. He raised his head and glanced at Li Qian. Seeing that her expression didn't change, he lowered his head and said, "Yes."
After giving the order, Li Qian waved her hand and asked Adjutant Li to leave.
She had been busy with Ye Tian's affairs for more than half a month. Today, she could finally rest. Li Qian rubbed her slightly painful forehead. She didn't know why, but she suddenly thought of Jiujiu's meek appearance.
Li Qian didn't like women since he was a child.
His mother was his father's first wife, but she was the most cowardly one. Although he was the eldest son of the first wife, he grew up being plotted against by his father's concubines. When he finally grew up and could take over his father's business, that group of restless concubines began to stir up his father to send him abroad.
At that time, they knew nothing about the situation abroad except for rumors. Sending him abroad was undoubtedly sending him to his death.
Li Qian thought that his father wouldn't agree, but who knew that his father had been fed the soup of lust by that vixen and sent him abroad without thinking.
Thinking of the scene when he first arrived abroad, Li Qian's eyes flashed with hatred.
After being sent away by his father, Li Qian knew that the last bit of affection he had for his father was gone. From then on, he felt that women were not good things. They were all a group of things with a honeyed mouth and a sword in their hearts.
It was the same even when he married a wife. Whether it was First Madam, Second Madam, or even that particularly sensible Huazhi, in his eyes, they were just objects for him to vent his lust. They were not even playthings.
At least playthings knew what he was, but they didn't.
Didn't they know that he was in power and couldn't tolerate the slightest little tricks? Especially those of First Madam, some of which had crossed his bottom line?
Sometimes, Li Qian really didn't know what to say about those women.
Did they love him so much that they forgot themselves, or did they say that the ignorant were fearless?
