He was hunted down that day, and Yan Echo's guards were scattered by the killers along the way. He was protected by people and was the only one left alone, and the two killers chased him closely, in fact, he had no strength at that time, and he was in the wilderness, I thought that I was afraid that it was really as the person who wanted to kill him behind him, and once he died, his father didn't have to feel that he was a threat to him, and I don't know if he would be sad and mournful for him.

Unexpectedly, he turned around and saw a woman fishing by the river, the woman heard the movement and turned around, he thought that he was afraid that he was going to affect her, if the killer behind him killed him, he would definitely not let her go as an eyewitness.

He couldn't have imagined that after the woman glanced at him, she suddenly withdrew the fishing net from the river, and just as the knives of the two killers were about to fall on him, she suddenly threw the fishing net at the two killers, she moved too fast, and the two killers were caught in the fishing net, he woke up, knowing that the opportunity was rare, turned around and killed the two killers.

After he had finished killing people, he had no strength, and sat on the ground almost weakly, thanked her, and said, "Thank you, girl." I still remember that her face did not change at that time, as usual, and said to him, "Is there any pay?" Take it as a thank you gift. Seeing that he was stunned, she added, "If you have anything valuable, just give it to me." Then, seeing that he didn't react, he pointed out directly, "For example, the dagger you carry at your waist, I can look at it very well." ”

He loved that dagger very much, but no matter how much he loved it, it was not as important as his life, so he did not hesitate to pull it out of his waist and throw it to her.

She took the dagger, looked at it for a while, seemed very satisfied, and her voice was full of a happy smile, "Okay, I received your reward, it's a life-saving grace, I'm leaving, you can do it yourself!" ”

She said to go, and he was just about to open his mouth to stay, when he noticed that someone was coming again, he stopped his mouth, immediately got up, and kicked the fishing net she threw into the river and the dead bodies of the two killers, quickly removing the blood stains on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, she had gone away, and the person who came was his secret guard, saying that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, and asked him to leave quickly, and he could only leave with it.

Therefore, it was not close at that time, and it was about to be dark, even her face was a little blurry, but the memory at that time was deep, and when he thought that he was hopeless to survive, there was such a woman, beautiful and smart, and he was moved at a glance, and it seemed not strange.

The queen choked when she heard this, and after a while, she spoke up again, "The person that the queen of Nanchu wants to kill, if you protect it, I am afraid that it will anger the queen of Nanchu and support others instead." You know, the eldest and the second, and even the fourth, all have ambitions. ”

"Queen Nanchu wants to kill, why do you want to kill? There must be a reason, as the queen mother said, what a grudge, thousands of miles away, through your hands to kill her, is she not blatantly sent people to the interior of Daliang to kill a person? Or has she actually killed it and can't kill it? That's why it's so roundabout? Want to borrow your hand to remove people? Yan Echo asked.

The queen pondered, "This needs to be investigated. ”

"And the king of Nanchu, does he know that the queen is going to kill a girl thousands of miles away?" Yan echoed: "Queen Mother, Queen Nanchu is not afraid, even if she can persuade the King of Nanchu to support Gu, it is the King of Nanchu who has the heart to support Gu, if she offends her, if her opinion can really influence the King of Nanchu to support others, it is also that the King of Nanchu has an opinion on Gu." ”

Although the queen felt reasonable, she still had something to say, "What about Zhou Gu?" ”

Yan echo was silent.

The queen said in a deep voice: "You are the crown prince, even if you don't have a marriage contract with her, you can't marry her, your identity is not worthy, unless you are allowed to take the position of a side concubine, you can barely reach it." ”

The crown prince said calmly: "The queen mother thinks too much, with my father's suppression of his sons, he will definitely not let me marry a noble daughter and help me grow up." Maybe if it was her identity, in the eyes of her father, it would still be just right. ”

The queen took a breath and suddenly became nervous, "Do you really want to marry her?" Zhou Gu has always treated that child with sincerity to you, how can you take his wife! ”

The prince was silent.

After a while, he said, "What if he doesn't want to marry?" ”

He looked at the queen, "If Zhou Gu doesn't want to marry, does the queen mother think that it will be no problem for her son to marry her?" ”

The queen's face changed, and she restrained herself and asked, "Does Zhou Gu want to marry?" The marriage contract he made since he was a child, since the old prince sent Zhou Gu to Jiangning in person, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to it. And since you can see a woman at a glance, can Zhou Gu look down on it? ”

Yan echoed and fell silent again.

The queen said in a deep voice: "Prince, you can't make mistakes, especially at such a critical time as now, how can you resist your great cause?" If you offend the queen of Southern Chu, and then provoke Zhou Gu to turn his face, and then offend the Protector Mansion, your position as the crown prince may be unstable. ”

Seeing that Yan echoed and didn't speak, the queen spoke sharply, "You have always been self-denying, upright, gentle and upright, both ability and political integrity, and everyone praises you, this is how much effort you have put in since you were a child to have this reputation." It's not easy to build a good reputation, but if you ruin it, it's only a matter of seconds. And once you are ruined, your crown prince position will not be kept, and once you can't keep the crown prince, even if you marry the person you want to marry, can you protect her? Since ancient times, the prince who failed to ascend the throne of God, you should know better than this palace when you look through the history books, and which one has a good end? You can't be fooled! ”

Yan echo was silent.

The queen softened her tone, "There are thousands of women in the world, you are the prince now, and you will be the king of a country in the future, what kind of woman do you want?" Why cling to one person? What's more, how deep can the relationship be on one side? Taking advantage of the short side now, if you give up, it is really not difficult. The queen mother believes that you can let go, and you have to think about the overall situation. ”

After she finished speaking, she saw that Yan Echo was still unmoved, a little urgent, "Prince! ”

Yan Huisheng finally spoke, rubbed his eyebrows, and said helplessly: "I can promise the queen mother, if Zhou Gu wants to marry, the son will not take people from him, he and the son are friends since childhood, and he has been studying in the East Palace for a few years, and when he is sincere, he will go to Jiangning County to congratulate his fiancée and Lu Li, and still help Gu attract talents, Gu is not a ruthless and cold-blooded person, he has to take his wife." ”

The queen breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, "It's best if you think like this." ”

"But if the son-in-law does not interfere, if he does not marry, or if there is any change in their marriage contract is canceled, the son-in-law will intervene." Yan Echo added, "At that time, I hope that the queen mother will not stop me." To tell you the truth, I told the queen mother, you and the palace maids that your father and the emperor gave to your sons, but your sons have not touched any of them, and they are not interested in them. ”
