Zhong Yebai's face was serious, he was thinking about a very serious problem, this was a difficult choice.

If you don't go back to the Chu Palace, you can not be a proton, whether you elope with Qingluan or not, there will be two top masters around Qingluan and Ba Zehu to escort you, life safety is guaranteed, you can also get a stable life, seclusion in the rivers and lakes, this has always been Zhong Yebai's dream, before crossing Zhong Yebai has such a wish, after ending his military career and completing all his tasks, find a beautiful woman to accompany him, find a secluded place, no longer ask about family and country affairs, no longer entangle the grievances and hatreds of the rivers and lakes, and spend the rest of his life quietly,

And this, in addition to finding a beautiful woman to accompany him, all wishes can be realized by Qingluan and Ba Zehu to help him, as for the wealth and power of the sky, it has never been what Zhong Yebai wants.

If you go back to the Chu Palace, it is inevitable that you will be sent to the Great Liang Dynasty on the other side of the Taijiang River as the proton of the Great Xuan Dynasty, and His Royal Highness the Prince of the World will be extremely noble, especially as the only son of the only king with a different surname in the Great Xuan Dynasty, and even more freely than an unpowerful vassal king, but after being a proton, he will bear the burden of peace between the Great Xuan Dynasty and the Great Liang Dynasty, and after being sent to the Great Liang Dynasty, for the peace of the Liang Kingdom, he must endure humiliation, and he is the proton of the Great Xuan Dynasty, representing the face of the Great Xuan Dynasty, if he is humiliated in the Great Liang Dynasty, then it also represents the humiliation of the Great Xuan Dynasty。

Of course, there is also the most important point, the freedom of the proton is not guaranteed, since it is a proton, it must be used by the Great Liang Dynasty as a bargaining chip that the Great Xuan Dynasty does not dare to attack and provoke the Great Liang Dynasty easily, therefore, every move of the proton will inevitably be closely monitored by the Great Liang Dynasty.

Again, how long will this proton last? Five years, ten years? Or will he wait for his father, Zhong Yuexue, the king of Chu, whom he has never met, and then return to the Great Xuan Dynasty to inherit the throne of the King of Chu on the grounds of hereditary replacement? But at that time, will the court of the Great Xuan Dynasty hope that he will return to the Great Xuan Dynasty to inherit the throne of the King of Chu?

And once the king of Chu is not in this world, the title of the king of Chu cannot be inherited by himself, and the Xuanjia army will either rebel against the Great Xuan Dynasty or be recruited by the court of the Great Xuan Dynasty, and at that time, he will no longer be the containment of the Great Liang Dynasty to the Great Xuan Dynasty, and his meaning as a proton will no longer exist, that is to say, at that time, his life and death will be insignificant in the confrontation between the two huge dynasties, and his life and death will no longer have any meaning to the two dynasties.

Therefore, from Zhong Yebai's own point of view, going to Liang Guo on the other side of the Taijiang River to be a proton will do all kinds of harm but no benefit.

But what about the Great Xuan Dynasty and the Great Liang Dynasty? It can maintain peace for at least a period of time, and for how long, that is, how long can his father, the only king with a different surname in the Great Xuan Dynasty, Chu Wang Zhong Yue, live, or how long can the King of Chu control the Xuanjia Army.

Zhong Yebai didn't answer Qingluan's question immediately, but asked Qingluan very seriously, "Do you know who Liang Guo is going to send over as a proton?"

Zhong Yebai's unusually serious made Qingluan startled, since His Royal Highness the Prince was five or six years old, during the ten years of chaotic wars in the Warring States Period, she has been following the general Zhong Yue to fight in the south and the north, all the way from a small soldier to one of the six teeth of the Xuanjia Army, and laid down half of the Great Xuan Dynasty, that is to say, she watched His Royal Highness the Prince grow up slowly.

But she had never seen His Royal Highness the Prince with such a serious expression.

According to the character of His Royal Highness the Prince, it is reasonable to ask questions such as what is the fun of going to Liang Guo for Proton, whether the girl there is beautiful or not, but His Royal Highness the Prince did not, His Royal Highness the Prince actually asked who was the proton sent by Liang Guo?

The Great Xuan Dynasty is comparable to the Great Liang Dynasty in terms of national strength, and it is even slightly higher than the Great Liang State in the south, but the Great Xuan Dynasty is located north of the Taijiang River and is connected to the Far North Realm, that is to say, the Great Xuan Dynasty with a slightly better national strength than the Great Liang Dynasty in the south is actually under the pressure of the invasion of the demons in the Far North Realm, and this is also the reason why the Great Xuan Dynasty originally occupied the advantage of national strength, but it had to make an alliance with the Liang State and send protons to each other to defeat the army.

But since it is a mutual proton, then the identity of the proton sent by the other party can naturally only be higher than that of the prince of Chu, otherwise, it is impossible for the Great Xuan Dynasty to do this kind of loss-making business, you know, Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, led the general of the Xuanjia Army, is the pillar of the Great Xuan Dynasty, if Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, rebels, the court of the Great Xuan Dynasty will be overturned only overnight.

Qingluan hesitated for a moment, and replied respectfully to Zhong Yebai, "His Royal Highness Hui Shizi is the eldest son of the Jinling Lu clan, Lu Yun!"

The corners of Zhong Yebai's mouth twitched, "Legend has it that although the surname of the Great Liang Dynasty is the surname of Wang, there is indeed a saying that 'Wang Yu Lu, the world is shared', I am the son of the King of Chu, the eldest son of the Lu family, and I am also quite equal in terms of identity." ”

Qingluan was surprised, "What does His Royal Highness the Prince mean?"

Zhong Yebai didn't answer, just smiled faintly.

Although Zhong Yebai didn't know why the prince of Chu appeared in the broken Taoist temple that should not have appeared in the first place, but now Zhong Yebai understands that His Royal Highness the prince is escaping from the Liang State as a great proton, and it is really difficult to be a proton, but there are some responsibilities, as the identity of the prince of Chu, he must bear it.

After Zhong Yebai learned from Qingluan that the prince was going to Liang Guo as a proton, Zhong Yebai had already made a choice in his heart.

Ten years of chaotic war in the Warring States period, the lives of the people were devastated, coupled with the flooding of the Taijiang River, the displacement of the victims, otherwise there would not be so many victims from Yanzhou and Yuzhou poured into Qingzhou, if the Great Xuan Dynasty and the Great Liang Dynasty did not have any checks and balances on each other, the war would be imminent, and the unlucky people would suffer.

In addition, if there is a national war between the two strongest dynasties in the world, the strength of the human race will be greatly lost, and the demons in the extreme north will inevitably take advantage of the void to enter, if that happens, then it will not only be a matter of the common people suffering, but a question of whether the human race can continue to survive in this world.

Therefore, since he is now the son of the king of Chu, he should take on the responsibility on the shoulders of the prince of Chu.

At the same time, Zhong Yebai still has a very important thing to do, that is, to enter the Chu Palace, Kong Wei monk said that if you want to know the answers to some questions, you must go to the Chu Palace, and if you want to enter the Chu Palace, it is impossible to shirk the responsibility on your shoulders as the prince of Chu.

Therefore, no matter what, Zhong Yebai must return to the Chu Palace, and he must be this thankless proton for the Daxuan court.

At this moment, a heavy object fell from the sky, smashing a large pit more than three feet deep in front of Zhong Yebai and Qingluan, raising countless dust.

A fat man in the pit wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and crawled out of the bottom of the pit, and the silver armor and white helmet on his body were even covered by the color of dust.

Ba Zehu poked his head out from the bottom of the pit and said to Zhong Yebai, "Your Royal Highness, where are we going?"

After speaking, Ba Zehu glanced at Qingluan cautiously and fearfully, for fear that Qingluan would say that he was not paying attention and kick himself again......

Zhong Yebai smiled, "General Ba, let's go back to Xuandu!"
