As soon as Xiao Qiyi heard that he was going to go to such a far place by himself, the two big eyes on his cat-like face were round, and he said pitifully: "Won't Senior Sister go with me?" ”

Shen Yuan touched his head and said, "Well, it's too chaotic in southern Xinjiang now, it's better for you to go and hide from your senior brother." Senior sister wants to stay here to find your senior brother-in-law, and then stay here to serve your senior brother as an internal response, so I can't go with you. ”

Xiao Qi screamed twice aggrievedly, his face puffed up, and said: "Okay, then senior sister, you must be careful, the smell of blood in the palace is so strong, especially some time ago, I had nightmares when I slept in the Xuanzhen Palace, and I don't know what the imperial brother did." ”

Although Xiao Qi was young, his eyes could see many things that ordinary people could not see, so the master accepted him as a disciple.

"Well, Senior Sister will come to see you next time, you can complete the homework assigned to you by the master, don't be lazy, you know." Shen Yuan glanced at the book mountain over there, and looked away with a weak heart.

Xiao Qi leaned back and fell to the ground, fortunately, he spread sheep felt on the ground, but it was not cold, "Senior sister, did you and your senior brother read so many books before?" ”

Shen Yuan got up and said, "Your senior brother had to learn more than you at that time, as for me...... All you have to learn is astronomical charts, and it's not as easy as you. ”

Xiao Qi rolled on the ground twice, and then ran back to the table to study, "Then senior sister, you are careful in everything in the palace." ”

When Shen Yuan came out of the Xuanzhen Palace, Chu Xiu was entangled by a beauty outside, although Chu Xiu had a polite smile on her face, Shen Yuan could see her impatience, but that beauty still wanted to get closer to her.

"The princess is bored in the palace alone, why don't you come and sit with me today?"

"Nope." Chu Xiu rejected Li Meiren's invitation, and when she saw Shen Yuan coming out, she hurriedly said, "Iris, this way!" ”

There were outsiders present, and Chu Xiu was not easy to call the title of princess, so he learned from Shen Yu to call Shen Yuan like that.

Shen Yuan was slightly stunned when he heard this title.

Mrs. Li followed Chu Xiu's line of sight, and saw a person coming out of the Xuanzhen Palace, and when she saw Shen Yuan's appearance, she couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis in her heart.

The palace maid in the Yuehua Palace said that the person brought back by the princess was overwhelmed, and at first she thought that the palace maid was exaggerating, but she didn't want to see it like this, and it was true.

"Princess, she is ......," Madame Li asked tentatively.

Chu Xiu said: "Ask less if you shouldn't ask, and say less if you shouldn't say." ”

Mrs. Li pursed her lips, not daring to offend Chu Xiu, so she had to nod, but she was more curious about Shen Yuan's identity in her heart.

Chu Xiu walked over and said to Shen Yuan, "I thought I would have to wait for you for a while, but I would come out so soon." ”

"Let's go back." Shen Yuan said.

Chu Xiu took Shen Yuan and walked back, and Mrs. Li didn't dare to follow anymore, but when she saw Chu Xiu's polite appearance to Shen Yuan, she was even more suspicious of the rumors in the palace.

Isn't the king really going to make a queen?

……

On the seventh day of the first month of March, Chu Xu, the king of southern Xinjiang, signed an armistice treaty with the king of Qin of the Ming Dynasty at Yuxia Pass, according to the content of the treaty, the southern Xinjiang army retreated to the border, and the seven cities captured were sold back to the Ming Dynasty at a sky-high price.

After a few days of negotiation, the result was still settled, and Daming compromised. The two countries exchanged envoys to show their sincerity, and the Ming Dynasty sent the national teacher Shen Yuan, while the southern Xinjiang sent the seventh prince Chu Yu.

After the two sides signed the treaty, the war, which lasted for nearly six months, finally stopped, and the troops in southern Xinjiang were slowly withdrawing.

But it was also at this juncture that the oppressed people of southern Xinjiang finally began to riot on a large scale, uprisings in various places, and the righteous army of more than 20 cities gathered, which was bound to break through Xuzhou.

The king of southern Xinjiang returned to the palace and was intercepted by the rebels, and the government in the palace was in chaos.

Yuehua Palace.

Shen Yuan looked at Chu Xiu, who was busy coming in and out, and asked, "You want to lead the troops?" ”

"Well, I can't believe the others, they all have more or less different intentions, and they are not allowed to change their hexagram halfway and stab my imperial brother." Chu Xiu knew that Chu Xu was a tyrant, and she also knew that most of the reason why Southern Xinjiang had become what it was now was because of Chu Xu, and her greatest wish was to hope that Southern Xinjiang would get better.

But she never thought of letting Chu Xu give way.

If you want to ask why, it's probably because ......

Chu Xu is the king of Southern Xinjiang, and at least there are many people who will protect him because he is the king of Southern Xinjiang.

If Chu Xu was not the king of Southern Xinjiang, just Chu Xu, no one would care about his safety except her.

Those who have a grudge against Chu Xu will definitely find a way to kill him.

Chu Xiu took a human skin mask and some bottles and jars to hide on his body, and then said to Shen Yuan: "The palace is not necessarily safe, so before I come back, the princess will stay in the Xuanzhen Palace and don't come out." Xuanzhen Hall is Xiao Guoshi's territory, and no one dares to trespass. ”

Shen Yuan smiled and said, "Don't find someone to stare at me?" Aren't you afraid that I'll do something while you're away? ”

Chu Xiu took the clothes and said while changing clothes behind the screen: "Even if I look at you and look at you, you will definitely do something." ”

"I won't stop you from doing whatever you want, and I may even do my best to help you."

"However, I only have one request, don't kill Chu Xu......"

Chu Xiu's last words were very light, so light that Shen Yuan thought that the sentence Don't Kill Chu Xu was just her auditory hallucination.

After Chu Xiu left, Shen Yuan was locked up in the Xuanzhen Palace, Xiao Qi was sent away, and the master never returned, and she was the only one in the huge palace.

At the end of March, the Jianshan Uprising broke out in southern Xinjiang, with more than 100,000 rebels and more than 20 cities responding by opening their gates to the rebels.

At the beginning of April, the momentum of the rebel army was like a rainbow, Chu Xu's army was forced to retreat several times, and the news of the front line continued to spread back to Yuzhou, and for a time the people were panicked, and many ministers of the DPRK and China rebelled, inciting the matter of seeking power and usurping the throne.

However, just when the palace was in turmoil, Xiao Nanshan returned.

"I thought Master didn't care about Southern Xinjiang anymore." When Shen Yuan saw Xiao Nanshan, his eyes were crooked.

Xiao Nanshan stretched out his hand and nodded Shen Yuan's forehead, the cold fingertips conveyed a coolness, Shen Yuan understood, followed Xiao Nanshan, and walked out of the Xuanzhen Palace.

As soon as the people in charge of the Xuanzhen Hall saw Xiao Nanshan coming out, they hurriedly ran out and shouted, "The national teacher is here!" The national teacher is out! ”

A plate of loose sand seemed to have found a convergence point, Xiao Nanshan stepped out of the Xuanzhen Palace, and the stone statue of Chu Yi behind him seemed to be watching his departing back, as if they had sent Xiao Nanshan out to carry out a mission before their deaths, and Xiao Nanshan would not let him down this time.

"Master National Teacher, Thousands of Generations!"

Gray robe and white hair, Shen Yuan followed Xiao Nanshan into the Southern Xinjiang Political Palace, and said loudly: "According to the words of Xiao Guoshi, the queen of Southern Xinjiang belongs to the Chu family, all things are to Chu, and the sky also chooses Chu." ”
