Sister Yan took the handkerchief handed by Qinglan, wiped the blood stains from the corners of her mouth, didn't speak, and walked straight to her palace.

The prince looked at her straight back from behind, and he was very sad in his heart, he was very sad when Tian Shen and Xie Ling had an accident.

The accident is so silent, she should want to be alone now, at this time, the emperor has no intention of official business, and she can't relax.

After going back, He Zhou saw that the prince's face was wrong, and the prince knew that this matter should not be hidden from him, so he told He Zhou about their accident, and then told him about his sister's decision.

When He Zhou heard this, he almost couldn't stand, Tian Shen and Sister Yan were his best brothers, and Tian Shen had an accident like this, which was really unacceptable.

Sitting on the chair next to him, he lowered his head and thought for a while, "This incident happened suddenly, it must have been a big blow to Xiao Yan'er, and there must be a reason for making such a decision, I want to ask clearly." "

The prince looked at him with a rare serious face, although he was very sad, but he did not collapse suddenly, knowing that his thinking was still clear, he was the person who knew the emperor the best at present, and he said that if he asked clearly, he must ask clearly.

"Okay, I'll go with you. "

He Zhou stood up and walked out quickly, the prince was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed.

When the two arrived outside the gate of Sister Yan Palace, He Zhou suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?"

He Zhou said, "Since she said she was going, she would definitely go, no one could persuade her, this time, I want to accompany him, Brother He asked me to take care of her before leaving, she is going to the grassland now, and she is not at ease." "

People are close and close, for Hezhou, he doesn't care what emperor or prince, he only knows that the most important person now is Xiao Yan'er who is depressed, and everyone else has to be behind.

Although the prince is broad-minded, he is always a little uncomfortable, but this kind of truth is more sober than anything else, "Okay, I won't stop you." "

The people at the door went in to spread the word, and several ordinary-looking people hurried out, saluted the prince, and left quickly.

When I went in, I found that my sister Yan did not hide in the house and cry, nor did she give up on herself, but sat behind the bookcase, writing letters constantly, thinking that those people were the ones who delivered the letters.

The two of them came, and his sister was not surprised.

The prince looked at his sister's face carefully, except for the redness of his eyes, he couldn't see anything wrong, he was still sitting on the throne with dignity and generosity, his hair and clothes were not messy at all, and the prince was even more sad in his heart, everyone knew how important those two people were to her, but she wanted to force herself to be strong and rational.

Sister Yan finished the task at hand without hurrying, and the two of them were waiting beside her.

When her subordinates all went out, He Zhou couldn't help but step forward quickly, standing in front of the table and looking at her, "What do you think?" "

"Didn't the prince tell you? I'm going to the grassland myself. "

"Why take the risk. "

Xu is Hezhou and the crown prince are one of the few people she trusts, and Sister Yan sighed lightly, no longer hiding the tiredness on her face.

"I don't believe that they are dead, if they are still alive, then they must still be in a very dangerous situation, since the Shang Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom are so bold, then they must also want to get rid of me, then I will leave Chu Jing and lead away some of the threats for them. "

Although He Zhou was sad when he heard this, he still gritted his teeth and said, "You are not a blindly confident person, don't you all say that you should plan for the worst in everything?

The prince was on the sidelines, and she didn't expect her to think about it like this, in her heart, were they really more important than her own safety?

Sister Yan frowned, looking very distressed, "It's not me talking nonsense, when they left, how many people they brought with them, how many preparations were made, I know best, with the ability of the two of them, with the help of these, it is not impossible, the mission of Chu is almost completely wiped out, the emperor's death is unknown, which greatly damages the prestige of Chu, and the soldiers at the border pass know it, it will also damage morale, so we must give everyone hope." Ensure that the situation is under control. "

The prince said, "However, if they really ——, how to redeem it when the time comes." "

Sister Yan was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice, "At that time, everyone was already prepared in their hearts, and when the time comes, we will encourage everyone to turn grief into morale." "

He Zhou knew that she had made up her mind, and no one could persuade her, so he said, "Then I'll accompany you." "

"You stay, the prince is by his side, you can't do without the protection of a master, when I leave, Your Majesty will definitely hand over other things that the prince deserves to the prince, but those are not completely trusted, the seventh brother is not here, so I can only leave you." "

"No, you are my friend, and Brother Twilight also told me to take good care of you before leaving, so you will come first in everything. "

"Put me first, and you will listen to me. "

He Zhou turned around and stopped looking at her, and said bluntly, "Hezhou is a scattered person in the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't listen to anyone's orders, I can go wherever I want, I want to go to the grassland now, can't I?"

The prince was on the side, still a little self-blaming, and now the emperor had to think about himself everywhere, and persuaded, "I'm fine here, just let him go with you." "

Sister Yan said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, don't be rash, your situation, you should understand yourself, although he is a Jianghu man in Hezhou, he is careful, witty, and has no intention of harming you, such a person is very important to you." "

"Hezhou, it's good for me to do this alone, you are by the prince's side, I can rest assured, otherwise I am concerned about the three parties, how to do things? Besides, I am already about to break through the tenth layer of internal force, and if I bring more manpower, the grassland is not far from Su Yue, and it is within the Xie family's sphere of influence, not within the Shang and Jin spheres of influence, you can rest assured." "

He Zhou said, "Tenth layer, didn't you make a mistake in your practice some time ago, why did you break through so quickly, and you have two internal forces, which is very dangerous." "

Sister Yan knew that she couldn't hide it from him, so she had to say, "Someone found the jade cold chalcedony in the extremely cold land, and I want to use the jade cold chalcedony to break through." "

"Jade cold chalcedony, although someone has broken through in the extremely cold land, but no one knows how to do it, it must not be so easy, you will be in danger if you forcibly break through like this. "

The prince didn't understand this, but He Zhou said that it was dangerous, so it must be dangerous, and looked at her with a frowning face of disapproval.

Sister Yan said, "I tried to break through before, and I already have an understanding, but I just need a little bit of stimulation, don't worry." "

He Zhou thought for a while and said, "Practicing two exercises at the same time, you still have to break through the tenth layer, your brother Dui can be regarded as setting this precedent, there is no precedent, I still don't worry, count the days, Yu'er and Qingyue will return to the capital in three days, you wait for Qingyue to come back, otherwise I will destroy what treasure jade cold chalcedony, and I won't let you take risks like this." "

The prince also said, "I support Hezhou, you can't take such a risk." "

Sister Yan thought about it, Qingyue came back, it would be good to have an extra layer of insurance, "Well, then wait for them to come back." "

He Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that she would not listen to persuasion.

The prince said, "The mission cannot tolerate this matter, and the state of Chu must be tough." "

Sister Yan said, "The prince can do it himself, another purpose of my trip to the grassland is to quietly divert to the Chu and Jin borders when the time comes, and now the situation seems that the Jin State is more impatient than the Shang State, I want to go and see it in person." "

Only then did the prince understand that her decision was really not impulsive, but considered the pros and cons of all parties.

"The news that Xie Ling and the emperor came back also said that the Shang State intended to let the Jin State strike first and drag down more troops of my Great Chu, so that they could attack more easily. "

"I have already asked people to spread the news, I have personally offered a reward of 100,000 taels of silver to find out the murderer, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first ordered the household department to allocate funds to compensate the casualties. "

While deliberating, someone preached, "Tell the emperor, Princess Yining has something to see." "

Sister Yan stopped talking, "Let her in." "

When Yi Ning came in, he thought that he could see the emperor's grief and uncontrollable appearance, but what he didn't expect to see was just an extremely indifferent face.

Seeing that there were still tears on Yining's face, the prince asked, "Yining, what's wrong?" "

Yi Ning held back her tears, and looked at her with some resentment, as if she had not been affected at all, "Did the emperor be killed!"

The prince remembered Fang Cai's conversation, so he said, "It's missing, and your whereabouts are unknown, don't talk nonsense." "

"Don't lie to me, now it's all spread out, the emperor is dead, brother Huang, what are you going to do, do you still have to endure Shangguo?"

"Yining, the emperor has a special identity, and he is an envoy on behalf of the Chu State, if something happens in the Shang State, we will definitely not give up, but the matter is not as simple as you say-"

Before the crown prince could finish speaking, Yi Ning said, "Don't you dare to avenge them, the emperor is the face of the Chu State, you actually said that." "

The prince's face changed, and he said seriously, "Yining, you are a princess, before the major affairs of the family and the country, you should take on the responsibility of a princess, instead of being so vexatious, everyone here wants to take revenge, but we have to be responsible for the Chu State, we can't mess around, even the third brother understands the dignity of the royal family, and the hard work of the past few years has been ruined, why haven't you grown up now." "

Xu is words were too heavy, and Yi Ning's tears fell out at once, "But, what should I do? Shang Guo is too hateful to let them go." "

The crown prince said gently, "We will never let them go, as long as the time comes, the army will set off immediately." "

Sister Yan, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly said, "The prince will order later, and the army from the west will march ten miles to the border of the Shang Kingdom and re-station. "

Yi Ning said, "It's only ten miles?"

The prince said, "The defenders of the two countries are only sixty miles apart now, and they can clash head-on at any time. "

Sister Yan said, "My eldest brother is close to the Shang Kingdom, and he must have received the news earlier than us, not to mention that he must have the intention to spread rumors, shake the morale of the army, approach the defenders of the Shang State, and mobilize everyone's morale, I will solve the problem of the Jin Kingdom first, and then implement our plan." "

Yi Ning said suddenly, "No, you stay in the capital and preside over the overall situation with the imperial brother, this trip to the grassland, let me go, even if you want me to make peace with my relatives, I will agree." "
