How could Helian Manqiu not know what Teng Huayuan was thinking? She smiled seductively as she moved her lips closer to Teng Huayuan, ”This way I can show that I don't have anything to hide from him, not to mention the things that the lord has given me. Who knows what exactly is the thing that the Lord has sent over? ”
”Uncle, you have good opinions. This official admires you greatly.”
The white jade face carried the pallor and crystal transparency of ice and snow, as well as a delicate charm that had yet to recover from a slight injury. The snowy mountain was in its bud as the snow lotus swayed in the wind, and the enchanting smile on the corner of her elegant and beautiful middle lips was indescribably enchanting, as enchanting as wine.
Teng Huayun's mind wavered, his eyes filled with amazement. He reached out his hand and placed it on Helian Manqiu's hand, holding Helian Manqiu's hand in his palm. The tentacles were warm, smooth as jade, and silky.
Having lost two of his three souls, Teng Huayun couldn't help but touch them gently, testing out Helian Manqiu's attitude.
He did not dare to be too rude. His official position was not as high as Helian Manqiu's, and Helian Manqiu was a martial general. He did not dare to offend her, lest he angered Helian Manqiu and embarrass him.
It made Teng Huayun feel as if he was in the clouds, and he couldn't help but get closer to Helian Man Qiu and gently say, ”Uncle, as long as you have the heart, as long as you have lived up to the expectations of the Empress and my father, how could I not run around everywhere for you and naturally have the opportunity to meet you in the future?” ”If you need anything, this official will do his best to not disappoint you.”
”Sir, there's no need to be so formal with him. You can just call him by his name. In the future, you'll have much to rely on. With the empress's grace, how could the prime minister dare to disappoint the prime minister?”
His hands began to tremble as he started to feel pain. He didn't know what Helian Manqiu's intentions were, but if he was angry at him for being rude, he shouldn't have asked him to call out his name. If he wasn't blamed, why would he have used so much strength? He would have almost broken his hand.
”Uncle, uncle, please spare this official. This official can't take it …”
Cold sweat seeped out of Teng Huayun's forehead. He clenched his teeth and held himself back as he begged for mercy with a low voice. He didn't dare to be heard by the people outside.
Helian Manqiu slightly exerted her strength once again. This bastard wanted to take advantage of her. He deserved to die!
The enchanting smile on his lips was like that of a Mandala's, captivating and alluring. The peerless smile dazzled Teng Huayun's eyes, leaving him at a loss as to what to do. He didn't know what kind of attitude this uncle in front of him had.
”Uncle, this official …” I beg of you, please forgive me. I am brave and invincible, but this official … ”I can't take it anymore …”
Teng Huayun slid down from the chair and knelt at Helian Manqiu's feet. He looked up at Helian Manqiu with a dazed expression as he reached out his hand to grab Helian Manqiu's shoes, ”Even if you broke my hand, this official would still willingly do so. It's just that it's a bit inconvenient now, so please forgive Huanyun.”
She sneered in her heart. If it wasn't for the fact that Teng Huayun was the Empress's nephew and the son of First Class Minister, she really would have crippled this bastard and talked about other things.
Releasing his hand, he kicked Teng Huayun's hand away. A charming smile blossomed on his face, but the depths of his eyes were filled with coldness.
He stretched out his hand to grasp Teng Huayun's chin and said, ”This general will spare you tonight. Tell me what the meaning of the Emperor and Empress are. What is the meaning of your father, the Right Premier?”
Teng Huayun knelt at Helian Manqiu's feet in confusion as he stared at her captivating smile. No wonder when he heard that this young general was the most beautiful teenager in the Northern Frontier, he was indeed peerless. If the Crown Prince saw him acting like this, he wouldn't let him go.
Even the people he had never been tempted by men before, upon seeing this young general, had lost their minds. They were like immortals and wished they could always kneel at his feet and hold his feet.
”If you ask me, I will tell you everything. I only hope that you will please me. Do not forget that I am sincere to you. I will do anything for you.”
”That's great. Huoyun, what you said sounds great, but I wonder if you can do it?”
Her slender, jade-like hands were glowing under the light like green onions. The thin gauze that was wrapped around her palm faintly revealed a hint of a crimson hue.
The slender, spring-like fingers were so white that they were almost transparent. They hooked onto Teng Huoyun's chin, making him wish that he could be hooked by Helian Manqiu's fingers forever and never take them away.
However, Helian Manqiu slowly let go of his hand and retracted it.
Teng Huayun had an impulse and grabbed Helian Manqiu's hand, ”Uncle's hand. Who is so ruthless? It actually injured his hand? This official's heart is about to break. I'd rather cripple this official's hand than let this young master suffer such a heavy injury. ”
Helian Manqiu felt speechless. She really wanted to lift her foot and kick this Minister of Rites out of the room.
The two of them were of the same rank, but as the commander of an army, as well as having the title of Emperor, the authority of Teng Huayun's official position naturally couldn't be compared with Helian Manqiu's.
Pulling back his hand, Helian Manqiu lightly said: ”Don't say it in such a nice way. I want to see what you will do in the future. ”If you just use your words to lie to me, then when we meet in the future, I will just treat it as not knowing you at all.”
Hearing these words, Teng Huayun couldn't help but kneel in front of Helian Manqiu and swear an oath. He raised his hand and said, ”Could it be that it is only because you have sworn an oath that I am willing to believe? ”If that's the case, this official shall swear an oath in front of this uncle to dispel your suspicions.”
”There's no need for that oath. Huoyun, you're doing it. I'm looking at it. Now, let's talk about the situation in the capital, about the things I want to know.”
”Yes. If it's something that Young Master wants to know, why should I take the risk? I must be willing to tell Young Master.” ”It's just that this official doesn't know what kind of heart Uncle has for this official.”
