Two days later, the snow became heavier.

Today, the mission left Jinling and set off for Daji.

Although Li Yu launched a mutiny in the capital, and Daji's current political situation is unstable, it does not affect the mission to welcome the eldest princess back to Daji.

In the final analysis, this era is still the world of the Li family!

Moreover, the two countries had already agreed that Daji would return the prisoner of war Chu Yan to the Chu State, and the Chu State needed to marry the eldest princess to repair the broken friendship between the two countries.

Two days ago, the eldest princess Chu Yunmei came to see Chen Chao and asked him what he should do today? If there is no good solution, he Chen Chaoke will stay in Chu State as the prime minister, with her understanding of her fat father, the fat man will never let the tiger return to the mountain, and Chen Chao will either stay or die in Jinling.

Chen Chao just smiled and said that he had already made arrangements.

Say what......

With the help of the gods!

Chu Yunmei didn't ask what was going on in the end, although she was worried, she also went with Chen Chao.

Love is not dead!

It is better to die in Jinling.

In this way, there is no need to ask her to call him master as soon as they meet in the future!

Early in the morning, Chen Chao finished bathing and changing clothes, and today he was going to go to Jinling Palace with Murong Chong.

Today, the eldest princess Chu Yunmei got married from the palace, and the two of them, as representatives of her husband's family, wanted to participate in the marriage ceremony, marry the eldest princess for their second prince, and then the group boarded the ship at Jinling Port and returned to Daji.

If nothing goes wrong, you can cross the river before dark and reach the territory of Aki.

Early in the morning, at the entrance of the post house.

At this time, the sky was bright, and the distance was still immersed in darkness, and the sky in the distance was not bright, and there was a hint of fish belly white.

Several lanterns were lit at the door, and the orange fire flickered.

"Be careful, I'll be waiting for you on the boat." Xu Hongdou gently hugged Chen Chao's waist with both hands, and rested his head on Chen Chao's chest. She knew that going to the palace was very dangerous, and if she didn't get it right, Chen Chao would have to explain there.

"Hmm." Chen Chao stretched out his hand and stroked Xu Hongdou's head casually, a happy smile appeared on his face, he didn't want Xu Hongdou to be frightened.

With his palm caressing his head, Xu Hongdou let out a "hmm~" sound, with a nasal voice, as if he was enjoying Chen Chao's touch.

After a while, Chen Chao took a short cloak and tied it to Xu Hongdou with his own hands, the movements were very meticulous, and finally tied a beautiful bow with a tie and put a hood on her.

Chen Chao smiled: "Okay, let's go~ Go to the boat and wait for me first." ”

Xu Hongdou's bright eyes looked brighter and more moving under the light of the orange firelight.

She took the initiative to take Chen Chao's hands, stood in front of him, boldly stood on tiptoe, pecked Chen Chao on the lips, and then her face was slightly hot.

Chen Chao smiled knowingly and sent Xu Hongdou to the carriage to the port.

Waving, the carriage went farther and farther, gradually disappearing into the wind and snow, disappearing into the darkness.

After sending Xu Hongdou away, Chen Chao turned around and boarded another carriage, lifted the curtain, and unexpectedly saw Yue'e sitting quietly in the carriage.

I didn't see this little girl early in the morning, Chen Chao thought that she had already gone to the ship in the port, but he didn't expect to see her here.

Before Chen Chao could speak, Yue'e spoke first.

The little girl clenched her hands tightly, put them between her knees, lowered her head, and her tone was slightly panicked, "Xiangye, don't blame me, I'm just, just ......"

"You just want to wait for me at the gate of the palace, right?" Chen Chao said it for her.

Yue'e raised her green little face, looked at Chen Chao's eyes, and nodded violently, "Mm-hmm." ”

Chen Chao sat down beside Yue'e, tidied up his robe casually, and said casually:

"Actually, there is no difference between waiting for me at the gate of the palace and on the boat."

"Yes!"

Yue'e reacted very much, turned sideways, raised her head, looked at Chen Chao and said very seriously:

"Of course there is a difference, when the slave and maid came, the lady told her that the slave and maid must take care of the master and never leave an inch."

Chen Chao smiled and reached out to rub his forehead.

Then he bent his fingers and flicked on Yue'e's smooth forehead, Yue'e was in pain, covering her forehead with both hands, not understanding why Chen Chao treated her like this.

In a short time, the carriage drove through the silent streets, creaking with the snow rolling through it, and slowly approached the palace.

Chen Chao sat in the carriage, comfortably put his hands into his sleeves, put one leg on Yue'e's knee side by side, closed his eyes, and sighed faintly: "If you want to wait at the gate of the palace, just wait......"

Hearing this, Yue'e looked overjoyed, and her little hand was extremely skillful on Chen Chao's calf, pinching and pinching.

"By the way, don't forget what you promised me." Chen Chao pursed in his mouth, yawned, and squeezed out a few tears from the corners of his eyes, "You promised me that you would serve by my side when you go back, and you won't have to go to Madame's place." ”

"However, the slave and maid are accustomed to serving the lady, and the lady is also used to the servant and maid serving for many years." Yue'e looked at Chen Chao who was enjoying it, and said, "What if Madame wants to snatch the slave back?" Can Xiangye stop it? ”

Chen Chao smiled, opened his eyes and looked at Yue'e, "I didn't see it, you are still so popular......

Yue'e grinned, stopped talking, and her little hands worked harder and harder to loosen Chen Chao's legs.

If Chen Chao could promise her to wait for the group to come out at the gate of the palace, she was very happy in her heart.

After a short time, the carriage stopped at the gate of the palace.

When Chen Chao got up to leave, he reached out and rubbed Yue'e's head, "Wait, come out soon, we will be able to go back to see Madame soon." ”

"Hmm."

Yue'e believed Chen Chao's words like never before, nodded heavily, and watched Chen Chao lead people into the palace.

At the gate of the palace, after the body search, Chen Chao and his party were let in, passing by the long city gate hole, at this time the sky was a lot brighter, but it was still very dark.

When the Chen Dynasty arrived, the square where the eldest princess was married was already full of Chu courtiers, all of them shivering from the cold, the top of their heads and shoulders were white, and even the eyebrows were snowflakes.

With the arrival of the Chen Dynasty, their eyes lit up.

Several bold officials went up to salute, and Chen Chao responded with a smile.

In their eyes, after today's ceremony, the Chen Dynasty will not leave Jinling with the Daji mission, but will stay in the state of Chu as the prime minister.

After talking for a while, Chen Chao said goodbye.

I went to find an old acquaintance, Honglu Temple Shaoqing Wei Chuan.

Wei Chuan is the same, his feet don't touch the ground in the twenty days, and he is a few pounds thin, but now in the wind and snow, his hands are in his sleeves, and he is stomping his feet slightly to ward off the cold.

When Chen Chao walked towards him, Wei Chuan also happened to look over, Wei Chuan immediately showed a smile on his face, his hands were withdrawn from his sleeves, and he saluted:

"I've seen the prime minister!"

"Lord Wei!"

Chen Chao returned the salute.

After straightening up, Chen Chao looked at Wei Chuan and asked, "When will the ceremony begin?" When will it end? ”

Wei Chuan shook his head and replied: "This matter is not under the control of the lower officials, the ceremonies of the eldest princess's marriage are planned and arranged by the Ministry of Rites, and we Honglu Temple can't intervene, but according to past experience, the ceremony generally starts at the end of the day, lasts for two hours, and ends around the time." ”

Hearing this, Chen Chaoxin was squeezed and half cold.

Now the hour has passed, the sky is not yet light, the ceremony needs to wait for the time to end, these hours are extremely difficult, and today there is snow, which can be said to be worse.

After a few breaths, Chen Chao frowned and said, "Can we advance a little earlier, after this set of ceremonies, we still have to go hungry?" ”

Wei Chuan responded with a smile: "The prime minister is too worried, the person in charge of the food in the palace at noon said that it was a farewell banquet, and he couldn't starve us." ”

"Oh......" Chen Chao thought for a moment and stopped talking.

Now, the Emperor of Chu will officially send an invitation to the Chen Dynasty to stay in the Chu State at the farewell banquet, and at that time, everything will be settled.

Chen Chao raised his head and looked at the small snowflakes falling from the night, only to feel that the time was long and tormenting.

He let out a breath and turned into a white mist.....

Looking forward to the farewell banquet.
