Mrs. Xiangxiang and Liu Ransom Zhu were prepared for the worst to ask for the king of Chu.

But His Royal Highness the King of Chu's performance was much more than they expected.

After the ceremony, the king of Chu received them in the hall with the doors and windows wide open.

Zhu Zhen sat on the main seat in the middle hall, and when the seat was given, the guards set their seats far away near the door.

One hall on both sides is at the north end, and the two halls are at the south end, almost three zhang away, and the voice of the voice is so low that it is impossible to hear it.

If it weren't for His Royal Highness the King of Chu singing 'Lady Xiangxiang' for a night last night, they would have thought that the King of Chu disliked them as barbarian ghost girls and was unwilling to let them get too close......

Seeing the confusion on the second daughter's face, King Chu coughed, and said without squinting: "Inviting the two of you to see this king is not very polite in itself, and this arrangement is also for the sake of the reputation of the two ladies." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Of course, the second daughter couldn't ask for it, so she hurriedly thanked her, and then sat down on the left and right. After sitting down, the two looked at each other.

Extravagant fragrance means, look, it's different from what you think, right?

What Liu means is that I don't know what tricks there are, don't let your guard down.

Zhu Zhenquan didn't see their small movements. Today, he was already embarrassed to see people, and when he saw the pitiful appearance of Xiangxiang and Liu's whole body tense, nervous and even frightened when they came in, he knew that they must have heard his song last night.

Now his original arrangement has all changed, and people don't know what to think about him in their hearts. Eighty percent is despising him, you are trying to help us, you are trying to make our bodies, and you are cheap......

In order to prove that he is not cheap, His Royal Highness the King of Chu decided to demand himself according to the standard of Liu Xia Hui, and he couldn't wait to pull the curtain in front of him, so that they could only hear his voice and not see him.

So he didn't plan to say hello anymore, and it was the right thing to do to end this embarrassing meeting quickly.

The king of Chu went straight to the point and said: "Old Bi Mo has conveyed the words of this king to the two ladies?" ”

"Yes." Mrs. Xiangxiang thanked her and said: "Thanks to His Royal Highness's refusal to give up, Junren loves to save the life, and I really feel that it will be a blessing, and Sister Liu will be tied to the grass, and life and death will not be lost." ”

Zhu Zhen couldn't help but glance at Luxiang when he heard this, this cultural level is really not low, it seems that the old Bimo said that she has been educated by the Han family since she was a child, which is not an exaggeration at all.

And it's really pleasing to the eye...... He suddenly woke up in his heart and scolded secretly: 'Sixth, sixth, what about your self-control? ’

Zhu Zhen slowly looked away, continued to look outside the door and said, "The two ladies don't have to be like this, this king's support for you to take the throne is not out of selfishness, nor is it an expedient measure." But from the perspective of the future of Shuidong and Shuixi, both of them are the most suitable candidates. ”

"I wonder why His Highness said this?" Although she was very happy to hear it, she was still puzzled and asked, "Can we two female streamers really take on such a heavy responsibility?" ”

"Yes." Zhu Zhen said in a deep voice: "This king has heard the deeds of the two of them from the old Bi Mo, and knows that you have long been assisting Zhongyi Bo and them in dealing with the affairs of Guizhou City and the two clans. What's more, in the future, the imperial court will also send officials to assist the two in governing Guizhou, so you don't have to worry about being incompetent. ”

After a pause, he said: "And for Shuidong and Shuixi, the most important thing in the future is how to find your own position and make yourself the cornerstone of the stable southwest of the Ming Dynasty, so that you can always accompany the country." ”

The two girls couldn't help nodding, they had all read the history books and knew that what His Highness said was true. After the official army recovers Yunnan, Guizhou will no longer be a frontier and will become the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty was bound to strengthen its rule over Guizhou, build cities and open roads, open up the connection between Yunnan and Huguang in Sichuan, and change the closed environment here.

The east and west of the water and the tribes living here will usher in earth-shaking changes. Whoever embraces this change first will be in the best position for the future, and the sluggish tribes will have to eat some leftovers.

And those tribes that resist change and cling to their defects are afraid that they will be ruthlessly crushed by the wheel of history and completely disappear in this great change.

These truths are obvious, but most of the local officials and leaders just don't understand it, or they don't want to accept it. They are simply instinctively resistant to change, rejecting any Han 'invasion'.

Other tribes can still hide in the 100,000 mountains without facing the officials and soldiers. But they can't do it, because the location of Guizhou City is too good, it extends in all directions, and its status is special, if the officials and troops invade, Guizhou City will bear the brunt of it, and the first one will suffer.

But it is absolutely impossible for them to give up the city of Guizhou, which has condensed the blood and sweat of several generations, and also hide in the mountains, so the only way out for Shuidong and Shuixi is to follow His Royal Highness's golden and jade words and make themselves the cornerstone of Daming's stable southwest, not a stumbling block.

~~

After thinking about it, she can understand this, and always put the long-term interests of the east and west first.

She exchanged glances with the Liu family, and then said to the king of Chu generously: "Since His Royal Highness is so valued, the two of us have the courage to fight for the position of Mu Kui, this is the position of Mu Mu!" ”

"Good!" Zhu Zhen clapped his hands and praised: "This king really didn't see the wrong person, the two women didn't let the eyebrows!" ”

The second daughter was modest, and the Liu family finally couldn't help but speak: "But Your Highness, how can our two weak women compete against those old men who are eyeing each other?" ”

"There is this king to support you!" After the sixth child finished speaking, he felt that he was not chaste enough, so he coughed lightly and changed his words: "What this king means is that I have a way to help you become a consolation envoy and a fellow acquaintance. All you have to do is do what you do. ”

"I don't know what to do?" The second daughter was busy washing her ears and listening.

"It's not complicated at all." Zhu Zhen said seriously: "At present, the toast in the east and west of the water is difficult to give birth, so that the deceased husbands of the two of you cannot be buried, and there is no way to avenge them, let alone open the way for the officials and soldiers to accumulate food...... Everything got stuck because of this one thing. ”

"Yes." The second daughter bowed her head lightly, and said luxuriously: "None of them refuse to obey anyone, and they are still arguing at this time." ”

"There will never be a result, and I have never heard that whoever can be a tho Mu by virtue of his loud voice." Liu Ransom sneered: "In the end, we have to kill each other." ”

"To avoid this kind of thing where relatives are painful and enemies are happy," Zhu Zhen waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "If we change the order and let them work together to avenge the two of them, who will be the toast?" ”

"......" When the second daughter heard this, the light in her eyes dimmed significantly.

"What? Am I not right? Zhu Zhen asked.

"Your Highness doesn't know anything," Xiang Xiang sighed lightly, "In fact, the deceased husband and Song Tongzhi were poisoned, and our two clans attacked Puding Road in anger. ”

"Really?" Zhu Zhen was slightly surprised, this was the first time he had heard of it.

You don't have to ask, it's definitely a mess, so I'm ashamed to say it.
