Chapter Twenty-Three: A Show of Love

readx;

Guo Liang was already in a weak position in Yongzhou, although Yang Shouye had a detached status and would not deliberately suppress Guo Liang, but he connived at Chu Madness to suppress Guo Liang, which was actually a disguised suppression, so Guo Liang's life in Yongzhou was very difficult.

Now, there is another Chu Nan who is reckless with the identity of Emperor Liang's special envoy, Guo Liang's son should not be too miserable.

Among Chu Nan and his party, most of Dugu Qiu is just a name, Guo Zhenyan's status is really poor, and only Li Zhen can barely fight against Chu Nan.

What's more, other people in Yongzhou may not be able to see through the complex political chaos in the capital, Li Zhen's identity as a prince is very appealing, at least many people in Yongzhou feel that since Li Zhen, the prince, is in the mission, then Chu Nan should be a puppet, and everything in the mission should be controlled by Li Zhen, the prince, in the back.

However, Guo Liang knew that this was not the case.

Even Guo Liang clearly understood that after a series of disputes, Chu Nan and Li Zhen, the once close partners, had become close and parted ways.

In this way, the cooperation between Guo Liang and Li Zhen is inevitable, and Guo Liang has never concealed his intention to win over Li Zhen.

Today's Lantern Festival, Guo Liang, who was recuperating from his injuries in the mansion, sent his eldest son Guo Cheng to accompany Li Zhen to enjoy the lanterns.

................................................ Of course, Guo Cheng already knew what happened in the Yongzhou military camp today, and when he saw his father, who was the most dignified and groomed, was beaten into a pig's head, the stunned and ashamed in his heart can be imagined, and he has been complaining about Li Zhen along the way.

Li Zhen couldn't have imagined that Chu Nan would dare to suppress Guo Liang with such drastic means, you know, even if Emperor Liang was angry, he would not do anything to a dignified Zhizhou!

It's just that no matter what the outcome of this lawsuit will be when it comes to Emperor Liang, it can be expected that in Yongzhou, the prestige of Guo Liang, the governor of the state, will fall to the freezing point, unless Emperor Liang is inclined to have an obvious holy decree, otherwise the grass on the wall who was originally watching will definitely abandon Guo Liang and throw himself into the tent of Chu Mad and Chu Nan.

Yang Shouye's status is detached, his authority in Yongzhou is unquestionable, and he is Chu Nan's father-in-law, most of whom will turn a blind eye.

Guo Chengyu was a little indignant, and said angrily: "My father is a dignified governor, a member of the imperial court, and he has guarded Yongzhou for the imperial court for many years, and there is always hard work without merit......, right?

Li Zhen smiled apologetically, pursed his lips and did not speak, and felt a little helpless in his heart.

Outsiders feel that at least they can resist Chu Nan's decision, but unfortunately this is not the case, Li Zhen expected that if he jumped out to help Guo Liang now, Chu Nan might not be able to save some face for himself regardless of his past feelings, and he would probably have to humiliate himself.

Guo is nearly thirty years old, a few years older than Li Zhen, and now he is an official in charge of logistics under Yang Shouye in the army.

Seeing Li Zhen's depressed expression, Guo Liang frowned and continued: "Your Highness...... The mission has a heavy responsibility, and it is here to quell the chaos in the northwest, not to fight among themselves! This mission cannot become the kid of the Chu family alone, otherwise the use of public weapons for private purposes will not only damage His Majesty's prestige, but will also make the situation in the northwest even worse...... Your Highness, you can't let him do anything like that!"

Li Zhen's expression moved slightly, he had been an invisible person in the capital for nearly twenty years, of course he would not be willing to continue to be silent, especially now that there was such a good opportunity, how could he be willing to let it go?

If Chu Nan is allowed to continue to control the mission single-handedly, the credit will definitely be Chu Nan alone, even if he will share it in the end, but he will definitely disappoint Emperor Liang.

The father sent himself and Chu Nan to the northwest together for the purpose of dividing power! If he could cooperate with Guo Liang, it would be a win-win situation.

Guo Liang can use his own name to win over the wall, and rightfully oppose some of Chu Nan's decisions, and he can also make friends with a behemoth like the Guo family, even if it is not too close, it is enough to benefit him now.

Guo Cheng saw that Li Zhen had already moved, and said with added fuel and vinegar: "That kid from the Chu family doesn't take His Majesty in his eyes...... Sooner or later, it won't end well...... His Royal Highness established his own team as soon as possible, in case His Majesty wants to remove him that day, His Highness can take advantage of the situation......"

Li Zhen looked at Guo Cheng in surprise, and was about to say a few words of heart-to-heart, but found that he didn't know when Chu Nan had already stood behind Guo Cheng and listened, smiled reluctantly, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

.................................... Guo Cheng saw Li Zhen's strange look, glanced back, and was stunned for a moment.

Chu Nan took Linglong's little hand and casually looked at the various lanterns around him.

Linglong recognized Guo Xianyan and Li Zhen, hesitated and didn't know whether to say hello, turned her head to look at Chu Nan, and was silent, lowering her head and staring at her rabbit lantern.

Seeing that Guo Cheng was no longer talking, Chu Nan turned around and said with a smile: "Why don't you say it......?"

Li Zhen was silent and did not speak, at least for now, he had not made up his mind to get involved in the struggle of Chu Nan, Chu Mad and Guo Liang.

Such a level of struggle is not something that a little prince like himself who has just emerged and has no foundation can be mixed in, that is, the identity of the prince and the status of the embassy are somewhat useful, otherwise Li Zhen could expect that Guo Liang would not even take himself seriously.

Guo Cheng put away the surprise and anger on his face, turned around and pretended to look at Li Zhen and asked, "Your Highness...... Could this be your friend?"

Chu Nan laughed, but he didn't expect Guo Cheng to pretend not to know him, and was ready to pass the test in confusion, so he didn't believe that the son of Lord Zhizhou would not know his big enemy.

Guo Cheng is deep enough in the city, even if he hates it in his heart, his face remains unchanged at all, and he said to Li Zhen: "Your Highness...... Since you don't know each other, forget it...... The lantern festival is about to start in earnest...... I'll take you over there to see ......."

But he made up his mind to pull Li Zhen into the water.

Li Zhen was a little embarrassed, greeting Chu Nan would definitely hurt Guo Cheng, if he didn't say hello, he would naturally default to joining Guo Liang's camp, hesitated for a while, or nodded silently, Chu Nan was not surprised, Li Zhen's enterprising heart has not existed for a day or two, and said to Guo Cheng with a chuckle: "Guo Gongzi didn't know me...... I'd better introduce myself...... As for me, I'm the bastard you just said wouldn't end well...... In addition, I have to correct you, now I am not from the Chu family......"

The corners of Guo Cheng's mouth twitched, and he was not embarrassed to be exposed on the spot, he turned around and said, "Let's go ......"

Chu Nan made a mistake, followed a step, and said with a chuckle: "Want to go, but it's not that easy......"

Guo Cheng turned his head, looked at Chu Nan with a gloomy face, and said coldly, "Then what do you want!?"

Chu Nan looked at Guo Cheng, then at the river on the side of the road, flew up and kicked Guo Cheng into the river with ice cubes, and muttered, "I want to ............ like this."

................................................ With a loud bang and a scream, the place suddenly became the liveliest place on the street.

In such weather, there is no need to say how cold and biting the river is, and it is of course a must-see excitement when someone jumps into the river.

Most of the people who came with him knew Chu Nan's identity, and they didn't dare to be mad at Chu Nan, so they were busy looking for ropes and long poles to save people.

Li Zhen glanced at Chu Nan from a distance through the crowd, and felt a slight chill in his heart, such a decision and boldness were something he should learn.

After a period of busy work and rescued the person from the water, Guo Cheng was already so cold that his face was blue and shivering.

The people in the government didn't have the courage to point out that it was the murderer of Chunan, for fear that passers-by would recognize it as the son of Zhizhou and be embarrassed, so they hurriedly escorted Guo Cheng away.

Everyone was still talking, discussing the reason why the man had just fallen into the water.

One of them saw Chu Nan approaching, and hurriedly gossiped and asked, "This brother ...... Can you see what's going on just now? Jumping into the river at this time, a ...... who accidentally freezes to death."

Of course, Chu Nan would not admit that he did it, so he waved his hand to the man and motioned for the man to approach, and whispered, "I told you...... Don't say ...... to anyone else."

Linglong knew that Chu Nan was going to be funny again, so she pouted and turned her head.

The man was interested, and hurriedly approached him.

Chu Nan looked around cautiously and whispered to the man, "Actually...... That was the son of Lord Zhizhou just now......"

The man was suddenly a little surprised, and a little happy, as if he was going to have a big gossip to hear.

Chu Nan continued: "Just now, Lord Zhizhou's son-in-law is accompanying the other son-in-law to enjoy the lanterns...... That's right, it's the brocade boy with a Beijing accent...... Guo Gongzi just confessed his love to the brocade boy...... Who thought that the boy in brocade clothes already had a new love...... Guo Gongzi couldn't think of it for a while, so he jumped into the river and begged for death......"

The man was dumbfounded and stammered, "She...... Show...... Love?!The son of Lord Zhizhou...... Yes...... Yes...... Longyang ...... How good?!"

Chu Nan nodded with a serious face.

The man thought for a moment, thanked Chu Nan, turned his head and said to his friend, "I'll tell you...... Don't tell anyone...... It's Guo Gongzi just now...... Show Love...... It's true...... Of course......"

.................................... Of course, Linglong also knew what Chu Nan said, and seeing that the crowd that was originally going to be quiet suddenly boiled, a pair of people buzzed and whispered, and said with a red face: "Uncle...... How are you...... Choreographer...... How will he come out to meet people in the future......"

Chu Nan smiled indifferently and said softly: "Even he beat his old man...... What kind of ...... is that?"

Linglong pursed her lips and did not speak.

Chu Nan was talking with Linglong, suddenly stopped, and looked straight ahead.

In the dark place where the lights could not be found, there was a white figure standing quietly, like a holy snow lotus blooming silently, beautiful and peerless, but silent.
