Chu Shuyao has been counting the days. On the tenth day, she changed her usual calm and breezy appearance, and began to become preoccupied and restless.

If she calculates correctly, at this time, everything should be launched.

She had tried to get something out of the jailer's mouth, but the jailer apparently didn't know anything. After realizing that she had no one to ask, Chu Shuyao had to think of other ways.

On the twelfth day, she began to play the harp, and it was a whole day, never stopping.

She thought that Jiang Zepu would definitely come over when he heard the news that she was playing the qin in the cell.

She guessed well, Jiang Zepu did come, but he didn't see her. After listening to the piano for a while, he left.

In the next few days, Chu Shuyao was almost like a year, and whether the Western Chu Kingdom could survive the difficulties or not depended on the turmoil in the world in the past few days.

Finally, on the sixteenth day, she was taken out of her cell. What awaits her is hope, despair, and for her, it is still unknown.

Jiang Zepu still had that calm expression, so that Chu Shuyao couldn't see the ups and downs, and couldn't guess the inside story.

Looking at Chu Shuyao's anxious appearance, Jiang Zepu couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Only then did he kindly say, "As you wish, the Tanglin Kingdom and the Western Chu Kingdom have negotiated peace, and the Western Chu Kingdom has sent a princess to make peace with the Tanglin Kingdom." ”

Hearing such news, Chu Shuyao breathed a sigh of relief.

"But don't be in a hurry to rejoice. My Southern Xinjiang State and the Northern Desert Kingdom provoked the Tanglin Kingdom together, and the Tanglin Kingdom could not defeat the three kingdoms alone, so they gave up attacking Western Chu, but counterattacked the Northern Desert. Jiang Zepu gritted his teeth when he said this.

Chu Shuyao immediately confessed, and defended herself, "What the Tanglin Congress did, we are just guessing. As for the possibility that the Tanglin Congress will attack this in turn, I have also said it before. And analyzed that the southern Xinjiang country is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it will not have much impact. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince won't forget all these words, right? ”

Chu Shuyao looked at Jiang Zepu tentatively. People in high positions are all advocating their words.

The crown prince of this southern Xinjiang country, but how many princes are eyeing him?

If the prince is untrustworthy, how can the courtiers dare to rely on the prince?

Sure enough, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said hatefully, "Of course, this prince has not forgotten these words. ”

"This prince will spare your life, but it is not easy for you to come to the southern frontier country, don't you still have to learn the medicine and poison art of the southern frontier country? This medicine and poison, this prince is an expert, even if it is the secret art of the southern Xinjiang country - the art of Gu poison, this prince can also teach you a thing or two, you can take a break for the time being! When you finish your studies, you will return to China. ”

The prince's words were beautiful. But who wouldn't know, this is clearly the meaning of putting her under house arrest first, and then slowly settling accounts with her.

This is already much better than the ending she expected, after all, the Western Chu Kingdom does enjoy temporary security. Is there any way to do it once and for all? If she can keep Xichu peaceful for a while, she will already be satisfied.

And she did calculate the prince of southern Xinjiang. Based on her character speculation about the emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom, it was an emperor who couldn't rub sand in his eyes.

The painless little fights between the Northern Desert Country and the Southern Frontier Country annoyed him even more. Not to mention that it was at a critical juncture in the war with the Western Chu State.

The two countries of southern Xinjiang and northern desert are clearly here to take advantage. Do you really look down on the Tanglin Kingdom, thinking that if the Tanglin Kingdom can't spare its hands to deal with them, you can let them do whatever they want?

So the emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom would rather give up attacking Western Chu than fight back to this face.

In the eyes of outsiders, the emperor of Tanglin was arrogant. But Chu Shuyao knew that the emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom just wanted to give himself a step.

After all, the Western Chu State is a century-old country, with a deep foundation, and it cannot be attacked for a long time, even if it declines, it is not so easy to be eaten.

In this case, it is better for him to negotiate peace for the time being, and then find another opportunity to continue the war.

Since the crown prince of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom said that he would teach her personally, he naturally wanted her to live in the palace.

It's just that before she was summoned by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she received a summons from the Emperor of Southern Xinjiang.

She stood two or three meters in front of the emperor of Southern Xinjiang, not daring to look up.

Even so, the power of the emperor of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom still quietly oppressed her.

It seems that Jiang is still old and spicy, the emperor of the southern Xinjiang country, who has been an emperor for decades, is inherently majestic.

In the language of the market, the old emperor has eaten more salt than she has eaten, and has walked more bridges than she has walked. She had to take it.

Finally, when she couldn't stand the old emperor's scrutiny, the old emperor finally spoke. "Lift up your head and let me see."

Chu Shuyao raised her head stiffly.

After the emperor of Southern Xinjiang saw it for the first time, his eyes emitted a surprising light, and it disappeared in a flash.

Then he asked indifferently, "You are the lobbyist sent by the Western Chu Kingdom?" ”

"Yes." Chu Shuyao responded neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Who knows, the old emperor suddenly became angry, "That's you?" Instigating the Prince? Let the prince provoke the Tanglin Kingdom? Almost let the Tanglin Kingdom knock on the door? ”

"Yes." Chu Shuyao continued to respond.

"Well, I appreciate your backbone. Since the prince said that he wants to spare your life and teach you medical skills, poison techniques and Gu arts, then I will also sell it well, and let people take you to a good place so that you can hone and hone your skills. ”

This old emperor, although his tone was calm and slow, revealed that he was ruthless and vicious.

Chu Shuyao knew that that good place would naturally not let her die happily.

At this time, she planned to reveal her identity, so that she could also talk to the old emperor about the incense.

Unbeknownst to her, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to save her.

"Father, this Xichu lobbyist has always been received by his sons, so it's better to let his sons teach with all their might! I don't have to worry about my father. ”

When the prince said this, the old emperor looked at the prince and Chu Shuyao, and suddenly showed a look of unknown meaning. There is also a hint of calculation.

Fortunately, in the end, the old emperor nodded.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rescued Chu Shuyao in this way, and Chu Shuyao deliberately made a dog-legged look of gratitude.

He smiled flatteringly, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, for saving me." ”

"Huh!" Jiang Zepu actually sneered again.

"Let's go, I'll teach you poison first." Jiang Zepu's voice revealed ill intentions, which made Chu Shuyao shudder.

In the end, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took her to the side of a large pool, pointed to the various poisonous insects in the big pool, and said very calmly, "The first step in refining poison is to collect poison. There's a hundred poisons in there, go take the venom! If I can't extract the venom, or if I am bitten by a poisonous insect and unfortunately die, I am no wonder. ”

Chu Shuyao's face was frightened and embarrassed, "His Royal Highness the Prince, this, this, is this simply my life?" ”

"Really? This prince just wants to teach you poison. If you want to refuse the kindness of Prince Ben, then Prince Ben will let people throw you in now. ”

"Okay, okay!" Chu Shuyao hurriedly waved her hand, "I'll go now." ”

Seeing Chu Shuyao slowly moving towards the pool, Jiang Zepu wanted to laugh. He didn't want him to go down, he just wanted to scare him.

Seeing that he didn't dare to go down, Jiang Zepu became playful again, walked to his side, and made a gesture to kick him down.

I didn't know that he took it seriously, and immediately said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has mercy at his feet, and I will go down." ”

As he spoke, he was about to jump down, but fortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was quick and pulled him back.

Otherwise, even if he is a Da Luo Immortal, he will not be able to save him who is not even a scumbag.

But with this pull, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince touched the softness of her chest. Even if she used the strapping several times, she couldn't hide that fact.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked suspicious, and Chu Shuyao was also embarrassed.

In just a second, she had already thought of her words, and she said that she was born fat, just like a woman.

But in the next second, the band in her hair opened. Three thousand green silks poured down like a waterfall, confusing the eyes of the two people.

After both of them stood firm, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince let go of his embrace, with surprise and surprise in his eyes, "You are actually a woman?" ”

Chu Shuyao could only laugh dryly, "Who said that women are inferior to men, what's wrong with women, can't they rely on their own intelligence to worship the prime minister?" Although I am a female Jiao'e, I am no worse than a man. Women disguise themselves as men, just for the sake of convenience. I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not blame. ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not yet come to his senses, and only whispered, "You are actually a woman, you are actually a woman?" I said? I said? ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince muttered to himself like this, and then looked at Chu Shuyao and smiled softly.

That smile made Chu Shuyao tremble all over her body and her scalp tingle.

Don't be so, okay? Chu Shuyao thought in her heart.

But what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought in his heart was that she was actually a woman, which was really good. No wonder he had always had a strange mind about her. For this reason, he is also worried that no matter how handsome this man is, he will not be able to like male style! Now that she is a woman, it means that there is no problem with his orientation, and he is not a broken sleeve.

"His Royal Highness the Prince? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”

In the end, His Royal Highness the Prince's thoughts were pulled back by Chu Shuyao's call.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was actually flustered, and he responded in a panic, "You go back first!" I won't study it today. ”

"Oh!" Chu Shuyao didn't know what to say.

It stands to reason that her disguise as a man was exposed, shouldn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be so calm?

Even if you don't punish her, you should make some statements, why don't you say anything and let her go?

Before leaving, she glanced back at Jiang Zepu. At this glance, I was startled and my heart was sudden.

Jiang Zepu's eyes burned, it was too hot. But this look is a sense of déjà vu.

It seems that Meng Yichen has also seen her like this.

Oh my God, a terrible thought rose in Chu Shuyao's mind, and she was suddenly scared.

Then he walked out eagerly, a little panicked.

She prayed inwardly, hoping that she was mistaken. Otherwise it's a hassle.
