Chapter 21: The Show Begins
"The National Teacher must have checked my identity. You smiled, and the smile on the corner of her mouth felt a little hypocritical.
In Tianqing Palace, she was a remnant of the nobles of the Chu State, but now she has become a disciple of the master Wu Qi, I am afraid that anyone has doubts in their hearts.
Chu Huainan looked at her, but his expression suddenly became calm, "I did check, but it's not what I meant, a stunning painter suddenly appeared in Qidu, and someone would go to find out who this person is, otherwise do you think that with just one word from you, you can stay in the palace casually and stay by the king's side?"
"What do you mean by this?"
"It's not interesting, it's just a reminder to Master Chu, this is not anywhere else, it's better to be careful in doing things, don't think that you can influence some things with a little cleverness. ”
"What does a national teacher mean?"
"What do you think?"
The two looked at each other, I don't know how many sparks burst out, it was mutual suspicion, he didn't trust her, and she didn't trust him anymore.
Chu Huainan said quietly: "You should have been to the ruined temple outside the city, right?"
Chu Yun was taken aback, "Do you mean those women who are hidden in the broken temple?"
"So what? Why are you willing to take the risk to save some people who don't matter?"
Doesn't it matter? She sneered, which may not matter to him, but it was extremely important to her. can't even protect her own people, what face does she have to talk about revenge again?
Speaking of which, if it weren't for him, if it weren't for him, how could the Chu army have been defeated so miserably? In the final analysis, he had to bear half of the responsibility for the deep hatred of the sea of blood.
He sneered in his heart, but his face did not leak, and he only said: "What about the national teacher? What do you think about sending food and supplies to them? and...... Why do you want to give them permission, and send them out of the Qi country?"
"Why?" he held the teacup, and the corners of his mouth twitched with bitterness, why? Why? Is it for the sake of what he had done? Or for the sake of her, for the bright-eyed woman, for the sake of her spirit in heaven, can you forgive him a little?
The heart suddenly sank, although Princess Mingyue's coffin was pulled back. But it didn't make him feel better, the people of Chu and Chu, all he could do now was to atone for his sins. Even if he knew that the woman in front of him was suspicious, he didn't want to debunk her.
Sigh lightly. "You should think it's for you. ”
"The little girl is just a little painter. ”
"Even the painter is kind to me, so I should repay you this favor. ”
"Then I will receive the favor of the national teacher, and I thank these poor women on behalf of these poor women. She bowed deeply, and this worship was sincere, regardless of the previous grievances between the two. But at least he helped her at the moment.
"I also thank Master Chu for accompanying me to drink this cup of tea. He picked up his teacup again, but it was a send-off.
Chu Yun stood up, bowed, and was about to withdraw, but heard him say again: "You don't have to take the matter of three days ago to heart, with the presence of the national teacher, I can protect you." ”
Three days ago in the villa, did he refer to the crown prince?
The spring breeze was still cold, and he wore very little. In the hunting wind, the clothes are fluttering, and there is a state of dust. She knew that he was looking at her, watching her walk, watching her take every step, she didn't look back, but she didn't know that she was not the Chu Yun she was back then, and even if she took steps, she would take more cautious steps.
Although the matter of the prince's suburban courtyard is big, the prince has a ghost in his heart, and he will not dare to investigate it too much. Since Chu Huainan is also involved, he will definitely be able to take care of this matter. He wants to protect her, does he know that there will eventually be a **** sword that will pierce his heart?
There is too much involvement between the two. Whether it is love, hate, sorrow, or joy, it will never go back to the past......
After Chu Yun left, Chu Huainan stood on the mountain. Rubbing the peach wood bracelet in his hand, he looked at the prosperous scene of Qidu under his feet.
He had always liked the mountain, and although his height was no more than a dirt slope, he could see the whole Qi. This feeling of having everything in his hands is good, he is not greedy for power, but power is really a good thing, it can turn people into ghosts, and it can turn ghosts into people, it can make people bow down to you, and it can make those who laugh at him behind his back shut up. There is nothing better in this world, but what if you get it, standing alone on a high place, and the rest is only a little desolation.
He didn't know how long he stood there, so much so that the butler beside him couldn't help but say, "Master, why are you so worried today?"
He gave a soft "um" and didn't say anything.
The turtle-haired butler suddenly said out of his mind, "Master, has you taken a fancy to that painter?"
"What did you say?" he looked back at him, his brow furrowed slightly, as if annoyed.
The butler chuckled, he was not afraid of him, although this master looked more stern on the surface, he was still quite generous to them.
"This Chu painter, the master seems to treat her very differently. ”
"Where do you see that?"
"The owner's expression was clearly caring. ”
If you don't care, how can you personally go to Yueming Mountain, snatch a phantom grass from the claws of a thousand-year-old flying dragon, and make it into juice with your own hands. The master's craftsmanship is a must, but he has never made medicine for others.
He grew up watching him, when his mother handed him over to him and begged him to take care of him, he did his duty, almost single-handedly brought him up, so many years together, this little bit of caution can still be seen.
He pursed his lips, "You're wrong. ”
"Is that wrong?" the butler chuckled, "if she doesn't care, why let people give her gifts in public?"
"Uncle Zhao, you are really wrong, I just think she is very similar to someone I know, and I don't want her to die prematurely in this Qidu land, that's all. ”
"Then I'm so dizzy. ”
He hoped that he could take a fancy to other girls, facing a coffin all day long, and he didn't know when he would be a head.
People say that love makes people happy, but in his opinion, love makes people perverted.

When Chu Yun walked to the gate, a person dressed as a servant was waiting for her, and when he saw her coming, he respectfully presented a brocade box.
"Master Chu, this is what the master told you. ”
"Thank you. Chu Yun smiled slightly, but she couldn't avoid slander in her heart, if she didn't give it early or late, but she gave it at this time, isn't it clear that everyone can see it?
The officials of the DPRK and China who were waiting to see outside the door all watched Chu Yun walk in front of them blankly, their eyes almost bursting, they had heard that gifts were refused, but they had never heard of anything that could be taken out of the National Teacher's Mansion. What is the relationship between this person and the national teacher?
In everyone's surprise, Chu Yun walked out of the house and was looked at by so many eyes, not to mention how awkward it was. But this thing was no better than anything else, and even if she didn't want to, she couldn't do without.
Got in the car and opened the box, where there was a white jade bottle. is worthy of being a national teacher, and it is really extravagant, even if the bottle containing the pigment is worth a thousand gold, it is also a complaint that the bracelet he sent will not be eye-catching.
The first thing she did when she got home was to try this phantom spirit grass, and tomorrow was the day when the envoys of the Chen State arrived, and she wanted to take this opportunity to win the trust of the King of Qi. After coming to the Qi Kingdom for so long, he hadn't even seen the face of this king well, at most he only glanced at it from a distance, and he didn't know much about this first enemy. If you don't go to him, how can you talk about revenge?
Spread the drawing paper and drip a drop of the juice in the white jade bottle into the ink, Chu Huainan was very careful, and put the use of this phantom grass juice in the box. This stuff works wonders with just one drop, except that a drop of blood is added to the juice. She slit her fingers, and the blood dripped down and fell into the juice, and it seemed to have a strong reaction, and the freshly ground ink in the cartridge seemed to come to life, gurgling, as if it could jump out of it at any moment.
Although the Phantom Spirit Grass has a miraculous effect, the blood added must be spiritual blood, so as to produce unexpected effects, simply her body is a person who cultivates immortals, with a strong aura, and it is no wonder that the ink mixed will also overflow with aura.
"What should I draw?"
After adding a full pen, a rabbit has jumped on the paper, and the short tail is really lively and cute. Before she could tap its eyes, the rabbit seemed to be moving, its mouth moving and gnawing on the grass in front of it, as if it was about to run off the paper at any moment.
She exclaimed, "The juice of this phantom grass is so spiritual. ”
Chu Huainan said that this phantom grass did not really bring the things in the painting to life, but made people hallucinate and feel like they were alive.
"Wonderful, that's wonderful. "Mouth tsk admiration.
"What's so wonderful?" Suddenly a voice rang out, so frightened that she almost poured her ink.
Turning around, Yan Sha was standing behind him, looking at the painting she had drawn.
"What are you drawing?"
"Rabbit. Chu Yun raised the painting in a conspicuous manner, "How is it? What did you think of when you saw it?"
Yan Xumo rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, "Braised rabbit meat." ”
Chu Yun "cut", the vulgar are really terrible. Turning around and closing the picture, "Why are you here?"
"Let's see how your injuries are. ”
"I'm fine. ”
"Do you dare to say it, how can the confinement technique of the Diwei Palace be so easy to solve, do you know that if there is a slight mistake, your hundred-year cultivation will be ruined. Do you think this is Lin Lanxun's body and don't know how to cherish it?"
Chu Yun was scolded by him but didn't dare to refute, who called himself a favor owed to him, Yan Xiao came to see her every day for the past three days, lost a little true qi for her, and asked Nephrite to feed her with immortal medicine, and because of this, she could get better so quickly, otherwise she thought that once the confinement technique of Diwei Palace was solved, how could the consequences be solved by sleeping for a few days? Chu Xiaoyun used this method on her, as if she was sure that she couldn't solve the spell, or that Lin Lanxun back then could solve it, but who called her not the real Lin Lanxun?
felt weak in his heart, so he naturally didn't dare to raise his head, and let him count himself down.
This girl will never learn to be obedient, and she will rush up when she encounters danger, and she doesn't care about herself at all. Yan Xu was still scolding before, but then he didn't have much strength, no matter how he scolded her, she couldn't learn well, it was really a waste of his tongue. (To be continued.) )
