Lower reaches of the Zhanghe River.

The place where Ling Nan and a group of Qingwei Battalion masters were located was Chu Land, and across the river was Fengdi.

After two consecutive days of searching, all the subordinates sent out came to reply, none of them yielded results, and Ling Nan's face also became gloomy.

Seeing that his face was not good, one of them said tentatively: "My lord, the water where the kid jumped into the river is turbulent, maybe he is dead." ”

"What about the corpses?" Ling Nan asked coldly.

"This," the man concluded.

Another human: "My lord, it is too difficult to find a drowning person in such a big river, and besides, there are many villagers who make a living from fishing on the opposite side of the wind and land, maybe that kid has been rescued." ”

"That's what worries me the most!" Ling Nan said.

"My lord, we, we can search from house to house along the windy river." Someone suggested.

"No." Ling Nan waved his hand and said, "Once this happens, it will inevitably alarm the Wind Country Mansion, and when the time comes, our identities will be exposed, and we will definitely be hunted down and killed by the Wind Country masters!" ”

There is no doubt that no matter how elite the masters of the Qingwei Battalion are, if they want to go against the Fengguo Mansion in the Wind Land, it will undoubtedly kill themselves!

Moreover, although Fengqing and the two countries have not experienced any major wars in recent years, between the two countries, the kind of activities that are carried out in detail, and the kind of back-and-forth that secretly occur frequently. There are definitely a lot of dark eyeliner on the border of the wind land, and once the Qingwei battalion enters the wind land, it will inevitably trigger a series of reactions.

As the leader of the Qingwei Battalion, Ling Nan naturally knew this very well.

"What should we do now, my lord?"

Ling Nan thought about it for a moment and said, "Disguise yourself as a fisherman and blend into Zhanghe County, remember, don't expose your skills until you have to, otherwise you will attract attention." ”

"Humble duty understands!" A group of Qingwei camp masters responded with their fists in unison.

Due to the border with the state of Chu, the management of Zhanghe County is not very strict, and there is no problem for Ling Nan to disguise himself as a fisherman and blend in here.

It's just that the prince of Chu at this time is no longer here.

He is the prince, and he is not a fool, he knows that the Zhanghe River is not a place to stay for a long time, and the other party wants to put him to death so much, he will be searched again, so after he came to his senses, he immediately left some gold and silver as a promise, and then borrowed a coarse linen from the old Zhuangtou, and left Zhanghe County without stopping.

He also did not return to Chu immediately, because he was afraid, afraid that someone would block him on the way!

Prince Chu is definitely a smart person, and now that he is in the wind, he immediately thought of seeking help from someone, and that is Princess Shaoyang.

Princess Shaoyang is the princess of the wind, and her other identity is the youngest sister of the king of Chu, that is to say, according to the bloodline, she is the aunt of the prince of Chu!

Although the two are about the same age, Princess Shaoyang's generation is a generation older than Prince Chu.

Find your own aunt for help, she will definitely help herself!

Thinking of this, Prince Chu immediately began to hurry in the direction of Fengzhou.

On the other side, the state of Chu.

The king died, the Manchu Dynasty was mourned, and the ministers of civil and military affairs were all tied with white scarves, dressed in linen and filial piety, and after dealing with the funeral, the topic of the ministers naturally fell on the succession of the king of Xinchu.

Originally, the prince of Chu was the prince of Chu, and it was a matter of course for him to succeed him, but now, his people have not returned for a long time, and the Qingguo side said that the prince of Chu had already returned to China, and was personally sent to the border between the two countries by the Qingjun guards.

Right now, in the huge mourning hall, the queen of Chu and the concubines of the king of Chu are kneeling in front of the spirit, and Concubine Yu is naturally no exception, but she is more sad than anyone else crying, and she is crying even more.

Seeing her holding a handkerchief and crying there all the time, Queen Chu suddenly felt impatient and couldn't help but persuade: "Okay sister, don't cry anymore, the ministers are here, what do you look like." ”

When Concubine Yu heard this, she still cried and said: "I'm a woman's family, what do I care about so much, the king is gone like this, how can I live alone in the future, woo woo woo"

The King of Chu died violently in the Jade Concubine's bedroom, of course, some people doubted this matter, and there were some gossips, but over the years, the Jade Concubine was the most favored, and naturally had her own power, so the Queen of Chu couldn't move her at all, and the only one who could move her was the Prince of Chu, who had not returned for a long time.

Once the prince of Chu returns to the capital, there is no doubt that the first thing he does is definitely to thoroughly investigate the cause of the death of the king of Chu, and then sweep away the forces of the jade concubine, which the jade concubine herself knows very well!

But now, Guo Hao has come back to recover and told Concubine Yu that the matter has been done, so Concubine Yu is not worried at all.

At this time, a minister stood up and said cautiously: "Niangniang, please mourn, the king has gone, I am waiting for the courtiers, and the new monarch should be prepared at this time." ”

"Shut up!" Hearing this, Queen Chu immediately scolded and said, "The king has just left, are you in such a hurry to set up a new king!?" ”

When the minister heard this, he hurriedly said: "Oh, Queen Niangniang, the so-called family can't be without an owner for a day, and the country can't be without a king for a day, this is the top priority of the country, and we are not disrespectful to the previous king."

Hearing this, Queen Chu's face finally softened, and Concubine Yu began to hold a handkerchief again, crying and crying: "The matter of establishing a new monarch is indeed the most important thing at the moment, but the prince has not returned for a long time, how can this be good?"

"Hey!" As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Xiang sighed.

"With the news from Qingguo, it stands to reason that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should have already returned to the capital by now."

"Yes, it's been these days, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know what's going on"

People are talking a lot, and many people feel that there may be some kind of accident in their hearts, because the current Chu State is the time for the throne, and in this case, it is really hard to say whether the prince can return to the capital!

But despite this, no one dared to say that the prince had an accident, and the scene lasted for a while before Concubine Yu stood up and looked at everyone: "There is a saying, this palace doesn't know whether to say it or not." ”

"Please show me." People saluted and said.

Concubine Yu said: "As early as before, the king had said to the palace that there was the idea of setting up another prince as the prince, but it has not been implemented. ”

Her meaning was almost very straightforward, people were shocked when they heard this, and Queen Chu's eyes widened even more, and she directly scolded: "Jade Concubine! What are you talking nonsense!? ”
