The night was cool, Chu Shuyao walked forward quickly, and Jiang Zepu followed behind in a little anxiety. "Yao Shu, what did Father Emperor say to you? Is he embarrassed you? ”

"No, he just told me that he had agreed to the marriage of the two of us. I guess you'll be able to receive the decree tomorrow. ”

"Really?" Jiang Zepu couldn't believe it.

"Father, did he really agree?"

"Why should I lie to you? It's too late, I'll go back and rest first. ”

Chu Shuyao felt a little guilty in her heart, because she had always lied to him. She didn't even dare to tell him her real name.

She is familiar with the art of war and knows that soldiers are not tired of deceit, which is a means, not a method. But now she is deceiving a person who is sincere to herself, but she feels guilty in her heart.

Forget it, don't think about it, anyway, I'm going to say goodbye soon.

The will of the emperor of the southern Xinjiang country was quickly conveyed, and the old emperor seemed to be very concerned about the prince's wedding, so he asked people to hurry up and start handling it. And let someone see it, seven days later is a good day. When the time comes, a wedding will be held for the crown prince.

Although the time is a little rushed, the whole palace will not be overstretched if they work together.

Everything is progressing in an orderly manner.

Three days before the wedding, the prince went to Chu Shuyao's palace to find her.

The people in the palace have never seen the prince so happy. The prince lost his mother at a young age and has always been precocious. The palace people had hardly seen the prince's childish appearance.

And now the crown prince actually holds a sugar man in his hand, and he even jumps to the future princess when he walks.

"Yao Shu, look, what is this?" Jiang Zepu presented a treasure-like award, and the sugar man in his hand handed it over.

"Sugar Man?" Chu Shuyao was also full of surprise.

"Do you like it?"

"I like it."

"I heard from the people in the Ministry of Rites that three days before the wedding, the bride and groom should not meet, otherwise it would be unlucky. At first, I didn't care about it, but then my father specifically told me about it. To be sure, I'm going to have to follow this statement. So after today, I won't be able to see you again. You've got to be good yourself! If there is anything to do, you can send the palace maid to tell me. ”

Chu Shuyao knew that this was naturally the old emperor's handiwork, and the old emperor was giving her a chance to escape marriage?

So he nodded perfunctorily, "Okay, I see." Then you have to do what you say. Is it auspicious? ”

"That's nature."

After Jiang Zepu left, Chu Shuyao raised the sugar man in her hand and looked at the sun in the sky through the sugar man.

Silently in his heart, "I'm sorry, Jiang Zepu." ”

On the day of the prince's wedding, the bride could not be found, and the emperor made the decision and temporarily found a young lady from a noble family to marry the prince instead of the bride, which was to maintain the royal face.

And the emperor was worried that there would be trouble, so he ordered the palace people to hide it from the prince for the time being.

After the worship was married, the matter was a foregone conclusion, and the prince had nothing to say. Anyway, outsiders don't know who the prince wants to marry.

On the night of the candle night in the cave room, after the prince lifted the red hijab, his face changed instantly, and he yelled excitedly, "Why you?" What about Yao Shu? Where did Yao Shu go? Say, is this a plan that you and your father have discussed a long time ago? Where did Yao Shu get it? ”

The prince directly choked the bride's neck. The angry expression makes people tremble.

The bride was really frightened, and stammered, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, it's none of my business!" It was His Majesty who ordered me to be a temporary substitute and marry the crown prince. His Majesty said that this morning, when the palace maid was about to dress up the bride, she found that the bride was missing. ”

"Your Majesty feels that the bride's escape from marriage is indeed an insult to the dignity of my southern Xinjiang country, so I thought of such a method. I also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to calm his anger and spare my life. ”

The prince was still furious, and he thought that this was the excuse for the hateful woman in front of him.

This woman must have colluded with her father and hurt Yao Shu.

Later, it was the emperor who came and pulled the prince away. The bride picked up a life again, and was so frightened and frightened that she only cried.

The old emperor scolded the prince directly, "That's the woman you chose, she chose to escape the marriage, which caused our southern Xinjiang country to lose face, and I still have to deal with the aftermath for you." You are so ungrateful for my good intentions. ”

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is bordering on madness.

At this time, the old emperor glanced at a palace maid.

That palace maid is the one whom His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always trusted, and she was specially sent to serve Chu Shuyao.

The palace maid stepped forward cautiously and handed a letter to the prince. "His Royal Highness the Prince, this was found by the slave maid from the mezzanine of the dresser, and it should have been left by Miss Shu."

When the prince saw the letter, his face turned white in an instant, and at this moment, he already felt that something was wrong.

He took the letter with some nervousness, and as he read it, his hands began to shake. When he finished reading the letter, his fingers couldn't hold the thin piece of paper.

The paper fluttered and fell to the ground in a circle.

The prince was stunned for a moment, and then shouted frantically, "Get out of here!" Get out! ”

Under the instructions of the old emperor, everyone retreated.

When Jiang Zepu was alone, he whispered, but said loudly, "Yao Shu, I hate you!" I hate you! ”

What about hate? He felt the same pain in his heart as a thousand cuts.

But what's even more pitiful is that even hate, he hates the wrong person.

There is no Yao Shu in the world at all, only Chu Shuyao.

How ruthless is that to himself? I didn't even want to tell him my name.

But he was so stupid that he fell in love with such a heartless and conscienceless woman.

The crown prince of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom was in pain for a few days, and when he sorted out his emotions and stood in front of everyone again. Everyone felt that the prince had changed.

Becomes moody, grumpy, and always gloomy. But the prince has also become positive, and he has become enthusiastic about the affairs of the court.

Whatever he wants to do, there is nothing he can't do.

He became stronger step by step, getting closer and closer to the position of the Ninety-Five Supreme. But people are becoming more and more impersonal.

Others don't know and don't understand, but the old emperor knows that the change of the crown prince is only because of a woman.

Seeing the current situation of the crown prince, the old emperor felt that it was right for him to let that woman go.

But he watched the prince live so painfully every day, and felt that he was very wrong.

Chu Shuyao, who left the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, did not go back to Western Chu directly, but went to the Tanglin Kingdom instead.

Although the Western Chu State has recently solved the crisis of the Tanglin State's strong siege of the city. However, the idea that the Tanglin Kingdom wanted to attack Western Chu has always existed.

Cutting through the roots, she had to do things thoroughly and make sure nothing went wrong.

All the way east, the hatred in her heart was even more. If it weren't for the lack of greed of the Emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom and the order to attack Western Chu, how could the Western Chu Kingdom fall to this point?

But when she entered the gate of the Tanglin Kingdom, she knew that the life of the people of the Tanglin Kingdom was indeed much better than that of the people of the Western Chu Kingdom.

Everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, this kind of peaceful and prosperous era is what every emperor dreams of, right?

But the emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom didn't even know contentment. It's really hateful.

At this time, she was penniless and could only stay on the outskirts of the city. If you're hungry, you can also hunt wild animals.

She was thinking about how to persuade the Tanglin Kingdom not to march to the Western Chu Kingdom. But I couldn't figure it out. I can only rack my brains, and I can't do anything.

That evening, she had just eaten half of a roast pheasant and was ready to wander around and enjoy the view.

But I don't want to see a girl by the river, crying while washing clothes.

That sobbing sound made Chu Shuyao very distressed.

She felt pity and planned to go over and comfort her.

But the girl was defenseless, and under her gentle persuasion, she told everything.

"Recently, the emperor wanted to draft a draft, and now the daughter of an official in the capital is unwilling to enter the palace draft. He intended to buy me, and said to the outside world that he was the second daughter born in the outer room, and then he would enter the palace instead of the girl of that family. My family is poor, and my mother can't bear to nod her head, so I should come down by myself. As a child, you should always think about your parents and your family. ”

The woman was pitiful, which made Chu Shuyao feel compassion. At the same time, she also thought of a way. It's just quite expensive. But now, apart from this method, she has nothing to do.

Continuing to talk with the girl, Chu Shuyao realized that the reason why the girl was crying was because she was reluctant to show off the childhood sweetheart in the village.

The two are childhood sweethearts and admire each other. If it weren't for this, they would have been married next year.

When Chu Shuyao heard this, she immediately made a decision, "As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than to demolish one marriage." ”

"Miss Lian'er, look at me, since my hometown was in trouble, I fled here, and now I am penniless and living on the streets. If you're lucky, you'll be able to stutter and drink. If you're unlucky, you'll have to be a beggar. It's still good to be a beggar, but if you are found by the gangsters, I'm afraid you will suffer a lot. ”

"Why don't you do that, Miss Lian'er. You take me back to your house and convince your mother. Let me say that I am also the daughter of your family, and let your mother send me to the official's house, and I will enter the palace in his place. That way, I don't have to live a life of displacement. ”

"When I enter the palace, whether I am dead or alive, I am grateful to you. Without you, I wouldn't have a better way out. Miss Lian'er, you can do it and promise me! As the saying goes, saving a person's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter. ”

In the end, Li Lian'er was softened by Chu Shuyao's mouth, so she nodded, "You go home with me first and ask my mother if she is willing, even if she is unwilling, my family can take care of you for a few days." ”

"It's really not good, it's really not good......" Li Lian'er suddenly swallowed and vomited.

"It's really not good, my brother Li Tieniu, hasn't married yet?"

Speaking of this, Li Lian'er was already blushing a little.

Chu Shuyao laughed out loud. She thought to herself, how can someone be a matchmaker for her wherever she goes?

But through this laughter, she said something else, "Oh, that's fine." I'm really lucky to be able to meet you! ”

Li Lian'er showed an innocent and silly smile, "I am also fortunate to meet you." ”
