Chu Lingshen thought about it for a long time, and there was only one answer left in his mind, so he asked with some difficulty. When he said this, his heart seemed to be dripping blood, and he only finished saying this sentence by holding on.

How to rely on intelligence, naturally saw the special meaning in Chu Lingshen's words, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless in his heart. Although she had some improper thoughts, she was not willing to disappoint Chu Lingshen at this time. What's more, Chu Lingshen's current relationship with himself is not harmonious. At this time, when Shen Huo was mentioned, he was afraid that he would anger Chu Lingshen.

It's better to wait until the relationship between the two is better, and He Suoyi will ask Chu Lingshen again, maybe he will get a better result.

Thinking like this, He Suoyi naturally made a rather innocent look on his face, and just said to Chu Lingshen: "Why did His Highness say that? The concubine just felt sorry for His Highness's body, so she took the initiative to make lotus seed soup for His Highness. ”

"Besides." He Suoyi smiled, "The concubine is in the palace every day, and she is idle, so it is better to do some small things within her power to share your highness's worries." Therefore, His Royal Highness doesn't have to think about those who have or don't have it, and the concubines really don't mean anything else. ”

Hearing He Suoyi say this, Chu Lingshen couldn't help but raise his head and look at He Suoyi. At this glance, the eyes of the two happened to meet.

With such a gaze, even if Chu Lingshen didn't believe it before, he couldn't help but believe it at this time. A trace of warmth crossed his heart, and he couldn't help but smile a little on his face.

"I see." Chu Lingshen nodded, "If Ayi is free, it will be great if he can cook some lotus seed soup for this king." This king is really happy, this lotus seed soup is happy tight. ”

Hearing Chu Lingshen say this, He Suoyi was overjoyed in his heart. Since Chu Lingshen agreed to let her send some food every day, her road to success has already taken the first step.

Thinking of this, He Suoyi immediately smiled at Chu Lingshen gently, and replied: "Your Highness likes the lotus seed soup made by the concubines, which is naturally the best. In the future, whenever the concubines have time, they will definitely make some for His Royal Highness. ”

After that, the two chatted for a while. He Suoyi knew the truth of being too late, and after a while, he stood up and smiled at Chu Lingshen: "Your Highness, the hour is not early. If the concubine is here again, I am afraid that it will affect your official business, so I will leave. ”

With that, He Suoyi turned around and left. Seeing He Suoyi's departing figure, he naturally felt a lot of reluctance in his heart, but he couldn't keep it, so he had to watch He Suoyi leave.

After this incident, Chu Lingshen's longing for He Zhiyi deepened. If you can barely suppress it before, how can you suppress it when you see not only He Zhiyi's face today, but also her gentle appearance?

Chu Ling sighed deeply, and secretly said that most of his life was in He Suoyi's hands, but he was unwilling to break free. He shook his head, dispelling these unwarranted thoughts from his mind, came back to his senses, and continued to focus on the business at hand.

But he said that since that day He Suoyi sent some food to Chu Lingshen, he only felt that this method was really useful, so he went to the imperial dining room every day to make some food for Chu Lingshen. Not only lotus seed soup, but also some other foods, all of which won Chu Lingshen's heart.

Not only that, when giving food to Chu Lingshen, He Suoyi would often chat with him for a few words. Over time, the relationship between the two naturally became more and more intimate.

Seeing that the relationship between the two was getting closer, He Suoyi knew that the time had come. At this time, it has been a few days since Feng'er told her that day that Shen Huo was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion, He Suoyi was very anxious in his heart, and he knew in his heart that he could not delay any longer, so he did not hesitate, but decided to make it clear to Chu Lingshen today.

On this day, He Suoyi, as in the past, brought Chu Lingshen food that he made himself. I made osmanthus cake today, it is beautiful and delicious, and it is very delicate when it is warped, and Chu Lingshen is naturally very happy to eat it.

Just when Chu Ling was eating with relish, He Suoruo said unintentionally: "Your Highness, the concubines have something to ask for. ”

The movement of Chu Lingshen's hand stopped suddenly. He put down the osmanthus cake in his hand, looked in the direction of He Suoyi, and asked, "Ayi has something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it." If this king can help, he will definitely do it. ”

Although he said this, Chu Lingshen had some inexplicable emotions in his heart. I don't know if it's his delusion, I didn't feel it at first, but now I feel more and more that when He Suoyi gets along with him, he is a little absent-minded. It's just that Chu Lingshen is reluctant to destroy such a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere between the two of them at the moment, so he has been holding back.

Today, when he suddenly heard that He Suoyi had something to ask for, Chu Lingshen suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, but his face did not show it, but he just smiled reluctantly.

He Suoyi didn't notice the abnormality of Chu Lingshen's expression, but just said according to his own thoughts: "Your Highness." Although the concubine has now become the queen of Chu, she was once a native of the Great Zhou Dynasty after all. Naturally, we do not want the relations between the two countries to be so stiff. So, Your Highness, can you give some more thought to the matter of peace? ”

Speaking of this, Chu Lingshen had already vaguely understood what he meant, but he was a little reluctant to believe it. Therefore, he just smiled reluctantly and continued to listen to what He Soyi said alone.

I only heard He Suoyi pause slightly, and then continued: "If this peace negotiation can be successful, it will naturally be beneficial to both countries. That's why the concubine had the courage to put it forward, and I hope His Royal Highness won't blame him. ”

"It doesn't matter. Ayi is also for the good of Chu and Da Zhou, this king knows in his heart that he will definitely not blame. Chu Lingshen's face was stiff, his smile was extremely reluctant, and there was a faint bitterness in his eyes towards He Suyi.

He Suoyi didn't notice it, but thought that Chu Lingshen meant to agree, and hurriedly took the opportunity to put forward his true intentions: "In this case, the first matter of peace between the two countries was that the prince of Da Zhou came in person; It's better to negotiate peace again, and still designate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come to Chu to negotiate peace, and he has come again from the beginning, how does His Royal Highness feel. ”

Hearing He Suoyi say this, Chu Lingshen only felt bursts of bitterness surging into his heart. It was only at this time that Chu Lingshen understood He Suyi's true intentions - why she suddenly curried favor with herself, why she tried everything to do so hard, it was all for Shen Huo.

Regarding Shen Huo's affairs, Chu Lingshen, as the king of Chu, naturally knows a little about it. Therefore, he naturally knew that Shen Huo had been abolished as the crown prince by the Great Zhou Emperor because of the failure of the peace negotiation, and he was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion.

The bell still needs to be tied to the bell, and the abolition of the prince is because of the negotiation of peace, if you want Shen Huo to return to the position of the prince, you naturally have to start with the negotiation of peace.

The feeling that was vague before, but incomprehensible, finally has a reasonable explanation. But this explanation only made Chu Ling feel very bitter in his heart, as if he drank a large sip of Coptis water, and the bitterness went straight into his stomach.

But what can be done? He Suoyi set the purpose so clearly, but it made Chu Lingshen difficult to refuse. And the joy of He Zhiyi has penetrated deep into the bone marrow and can no longer be pulled out. Thinking of this, although Chu Lingshen was very reluctant, he was also willing to agree to her request in order to make He Suoyi happy.

"If the matter of peace can be successful, it will be excellent. Since this is the case, then, according to Ayi's wishes, invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the Chu Kingdom to discuss together. ”

After He Suoyi heard this, he was naturally overjoyed. The smile on his face couldn't help but feel a lot more sincerely, and he thanked Chu Lingshen in a loud voice: "Thank you for Your Highness's kindness, if Your Highness doesn't understand the righteousness so well, I'm afraid that there will be no peace between the two countries." ”

Where is the deep understanding of righteousness, listening to He Suoyi's praise, Chu Lingshen just smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking silently, but because he was happy that you were too happy, even if he knew who you were asking for, he had to reluctantly agree.

Thinking like this, Chu Lingshen's bitterness became stronger and stronger, but his face was still calm: "Ayi, let's go back first, it's not trivial to discuss peace." The king will have to think carefully before he can find a way that will benefit both countries. ”

Hearing Chu Lingshen say this, He Suoyi was also extremely relieved. Chu Lingshen, as the king of a country, naturally would not go back on his word. Since he agreed to this matter, he will do what he says.

Thinking like this, He Suoyi settled down a lot, and only bowed slightly to Chu Lingshen: "In this way, the concubine will retire first." "With that, he walked away.

And Chu Ling looked at He Suoyi's distant back, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. I don't know how long it took for Chu Lingshen to come back to his senses, Fu smiled bitterly again, turned to the little eunuch and ordered: "Go and call the right prime minister to come, this king has something to discuss with him." ”

Under Chu Lingshen's summons, it didn't take long for Xu Qinghe to come to Chaoyang Palace. The two of them naturally discussed the matter of peace, and then made a preliminary plan. After making a plan, Chu Lingshen was worried about what to rely on, so he didn't delay any longer, but just acted according to the plan.

After that, Chu Lingshen sent a message to the Great Zhou, and invited the prince of the Great Zhou to come to negotiate peace, giving Shen Huo enough face. Not only that, this news is a pun, but it also emphasizes that he will only agree to negotiate peace when Shen Huo comes.

After the news reached Da Zhou, it naturally caused an uproar. It has been a few days since Shen Huo was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion. In the course of a few days, it is inevitable that earth-shaking changes will occur.

Shen Huo was abolished as the crown prince and imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion, and his natural power declined. On the other hand, Gu Zhiheng's power is developing more and more, and then growing, and it can almost be called like a sky.
