"Minister, see the emperor, long live the emperor!" Prince An came to the center of the hall and knelt down under the high platform where Chu Yuan was sitting, his expression was very humble, and he couldn't see the slightest displeasure.

"Is it Prince An? Hurry up, please! Chu Yuan glanced at Prince An with some confusion, and then smiled slightly and opened the corners of his lips, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Obey the order!" Prince An took the order, raised his head and glanced at Chu Yuan seriously, and couldn't help but praise in his heart, Chu Yuan is worthy of being Yufeng's favorite child, compared to Yufeng back then, it seems to be more emperorly, the smile on his face is just right, so that you can't find a trace of clues, I just think that he really has a touch of joy.

"Prince An, please take a seat!" Chu Yuan waved his hand to the side, motioned to Prince An for the chair on the side, and politely invited him to sit down.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Prince An was slightly blessed, and sat on the seat next to him humbly but not humbly.

Seeing Prince An sit down, Chu Yuan raised his eyes and carefully glanced at Prince An, as the years passed, Prince An's temperament became more calm, and in those resolute and profound eyes, there was enough wisdom, more vicissitudes of experience, and a clear understanding of the world.

Such a Prince An, Chu Yuan has no objection to this, Prince An, as a member of the royal family, naturally has the demeanor that a royal should have, and Prince An led the troops on the battlefield back then, and the iron-clad blood has long been integrated into the bones and blood, although at this time it seems that there is less anger and more modesty, but it is still in style and temperament.

"Prince An, it stands to reason that I should call you Uncle Huang." After looking at Prince An, Chu Yuan said lightly, these words were really cordial.

"The emperor thinks too highly of his ministers, but now that you are the son of heaven and I am a courtier, I should naturally be commensurate with a monarch and a minister." It's not that Prince An doesn't know what to do, he is happy to agree in his heart, but if he really agrees, I'm afraid that Chu Yuan will sneer and say that he can't do it himself.

"Prince An, I think that when the first emperor succeeded to the throne, you had already left the imperial city, and you had not been to the imperial city for decades, and I had never seen you. When the emperor succeeded to the throne, I was only four or five years old, I was young at that time, and I couldn't remember the appearance of Prince An, but now I am very happy to see Prince An again! Because Prince An has a very bright aura, Chu Yuan's mind does not seem so gloomy, except for a lot of right and wrong, there is really a sincerity in talking to Prince An.

"Yes, the emperor was just a child back then, I haven't seen you for several years, you are already a king who can hold up the burden of the world, the minister admires!" What Prince An said was not a compliment, from Chu Yuan's succession to the present, it was not easy for him to govern the state of Chu to the current situation.

"Prince An has praised it!" Chu Yuan smiled heartily, and then with a slow and serious expression, he said very solemnly: "Prince An, I know that you came to the imperial city this time for the third anniversary of the emperor, but I don't know if you are coming here at this moment, what is the so-called?" ”

"Your Majesty, after the minister came to the imperial city, he has not officially visited you, the minister knows that you just came back from Fuzhou City two days ago, and the journey is tiring all the way, and it is inconvenient for the minister to come to disturb, so I asked Lord Lin today, and learned that the emperor has nothing important today, so he came to visit." Prince An smiled slightly apologetically, and hugged his fists towards Chu Yuan very seriously.

"It's okay, I'm going to go to the Imperial Temple early tomorrow morning, and I have to bow down in that Imperial Temple for three days. Prince An, you are also a royal family, and you should also go to the emperor's temple to worship, although you can't enter the main hall, but you should worship outside the palace. Chu Yuan knew that Prince An would not feel aggrieved because of this, Prince An came to the imperial city urgently, wanting to worship the spirit of the first emperor, Chu Yuan was aware in his heart that the purpose of Prince An's trip was more from the first emperor.

"That's natural, early tomorrow morning, the ministers will wait for the emperor outside the palace and follow the emperor to the imperial temple." Prince An was inevitably a little excited in his heart, although the Imperial Temple was not a place where the emperor was buried, but there was his tablet, which was as important as the imperial tomb.

"Okay, I still have some things, so I won't leave Prince An to talk about it, let's see you outside the palace gate tomorrow!" With Prince An, even if the atmosphere of the chat was good, there were not too many topics, in order to avoid the embarrassment of the scene, Chu Yuan decided to end the meeting.

"Yes, the minister obeyed the order, and the minister retired first!" Prince An's attitude towards Chu Yuan was really respectful, and there was no trace of dissatisfaction and unwillingness.

After Prince An left, Xiao Chengmo walked out from behind the screen, Chu Yuan looked at him eavesdropping and peeking so openly, and shook his head a little helplessly, but he didn't mind at all.

"How is it, but can you see Prince An's true appearance?" Chu Yuan raised his eyebrows and smiled meaningfully.

"Prince An really lives up to his reputation, and now he still seems to be mature and stable, and his demeanor is still the same, but the evil qi on his body has completely dissipated, but there is a little softer! Chu Yuan, according to my feelings, I don't think Prince An is hostile to you, and unexpectedly there is a touch of kindness. Xiao Chengmo secretly observed Prince An, and from his vision, he could see it most clearly, and he could feel that every word that Prince An said to Chu Yuan was sincere and true.

"Is that so?" Chu Yuan didn't believe it, but he also frowned a little suspiciously, "I also have a feeling that Prince An seems to be different from what I imagined, if it weren't for his disguise too thoroughly, then I really have to wonder if he had a deep enough relationship with the former emperor back then, so he was willing to give up his military power and was willing to go to the remote and desert place in the desert." ”

"It's not impossible!" Xiao Chengmo is very aware of this, "Chu Yuan, you haven't experienced how tragic the battle for the throne is, and you haven't experienced how reassuring and courageous it is to have someone behind you to support you at that time. Your throne came well, and although you put in your due efforts and you deserved it, my throne came differently. ”

"Actually, I've heard of these things, but when I hear you talk about it at this time, it feels very different!" Chu Yuan sighed slightly, he did not avoid what Xiao Chengmo said, his throne had indeed not experienced the kind of tragic battle of the nine sons for succession.

"Yes, the Yi State at that time was different from the Chu State, there were only three princes in the Chu State, and on your third birthday, the first emperor had already named you the crown prince, as long as there was no accident later, you would undoubtedly be the prince of the Chu State." Xiao Chengmo smiled faintly, Chu Yuan's situation is really special, since ancient times, it is estimated that Chu Yuan was truly born rich.
