Chapter 32: Meeting the Third Brother
Princess Qionghua smiled when she saw them from afar, "Why are you here?"
Chu Yun and Chen Fang met in the past, and the three of them couldn't help but smile at each other when they thought of seeing many young talents today, and they all had the same feeling of 'the end of the world loves beauties, why should they know each other when they meet'.
The three of them went to the restaurant closest to the imperial examination hall, and the people who participated in the imperial examination this year were all brightly dressed and handsome.
Princess Qionghua is worthy of being the princess of Qi Kingdom, and she basically looks at people when she comes here, pointing to one from time to time, "How do you look at that person......?"
Chu Yun was also looking left and right, she was looking for her third brother, she always felt that the third brother would not appear for no reason, since he was in Qidu, he would definitely do something.
Just thinking about it, suddenly a handsome man walked into the restaurant, with old clothes and a dark expression, but he couldn't hide his pale skin and dark hair. He looked at her with those lacquered eyes, as black as the most silent night, deep and dark, and from then on it seemed to be engraved in her heart with a blade, eternal and indelible.
She couldn't help but think of the scene in the Chu Palace, she stood barefoot in the pond, and all the Han Lian in her arms fell on the water unconsciously.
A young man walked slowly towards her, she saw a faint smile in the young man's eyes, and helped her pick up the lotus flowers in the water, he must have seen the mud spots splashing on her calves, and the grass clippings sticking under the gauze skirt, but he just smiled slightly, and gave her the flowers in his hand. As he gazed at her, it was not her usual look at a little girl, but a tender look from a teenager to a girl that she had never seen before. Sometimes when a girl grows up, she just needs a look from the other person.
Looking at the man, she was slightly startled, and almost screamed, "Brother-"
Yes, he is her brother, her third brother, the third brother who likes and dotes on her the most.
The man saw her, too, and saw the hope in her eyes, but he didn't say a word, didn't even make eye contact with her, and just walked past her.
Chu Yun looked at him for a long time, and her gaze attracted Princess Qionghua.
Princess Qionghua also looked at the man, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, she pulled Chu Yun in surprise, and said a little shyly: "Chu Chu, Chu Chu, I seem to be in love with that person, he is so good-looking." ”
Chen Fang also said: "It's really good-looking, is he also the son of this Enke?"
Chu Yun couldn't help but look at it a few more times, "Maybe." She hoped that he wasn't, that he wasn't here for revenge, it was already painful to have her walk this path alone, and she didn't want to add another person who was suffering.
They worked in the restaurant for a while, and then commented on all kinds of people, and then reluctantly left the restaurant.
A few days later, Enke opened the exam, and a few days later, the list was released, and the first place in the exam was a young man named Chu Yunxiang.
I heard that the hairpin banquet of the Qi country, the king of Qi had a very good impression of this young man, he spoke elegantly and talentedly, and then Princess Qionghua fell in love with him at a glance, and the king of Qi decreed that he made the east bed horse.
On this day, Chu Yun was summoned to the palace, and while she was thinking, she walked through the vestibule with an umbrella and walked all the way down the corridor. After passing the double Zhu Gate, all the way to the West Courtyard, which is where the princess lives. Her courtyard is overgrown with bluegrass, and the plantains in the courtyard have newly pulled out long leaves, and the transparent flower windows are hidden, showing a cold and lack of warmth in such a rainy day.
Chu Yun gently put away the umbrella and stood outside the window. Under the porch is planted a plantain, under which is a large porcelain jar, in which three or four koi fish are raised, with bright red and white colors, swimming in the water.
She stood and watched the rain hit the plantain and the water splashed. In the silence, she heard a muffled voice in the room, as if someone was muttering something.
Chu Yun turned around and saw the couch in front of the window through the leaky window, Princess Qionghua lying on the bed was sleeping restlessly, her brows were also furrowed in her sleep, her face was full of panic, her hands were tightly grasping the corners of the quilt, and her forehead was full of beads of sweat, as if she was undergoing the most terrible torture.
Chu Yun stood outside the window and looked at her for a while, still wondering if to wake her up, but heard her muttering: "Bloody...... Scarlet ......"
Suddenly, the wind and rain intensified, hitting half of Huang Zifang's body. She quickly dodged around, and when she heard Princess Qionghua's exclamation of "ah", she had already woken up.
Chu Yun walked over and called in a low voice: "Princess-"
Princess Qionghua opened her eyes and saw that it was her, and couldn't help but hold her arm tightly, "Chu Chu, you are finally here." As he spoke, he added, "I heard the fourth brother call you Chu Chu, can I call you like that?"
Chu Yun nodded, "But the princess has a nightmare?"
"Yes, I dreamed of a lot of blood, the blood of the Chu Palace, many people died, and a fire burned the Chu Palace clean. Chu Chu, do you say that my father and the emperor treated the people of Chu like that, will he be punished by heaven?"
How could she dream of the Chu Palace? Moreover, she had never left Qi Capital, let alone go to the Chu Palace.
I had doubts in my heart, I couldn't sit still after sitting for a while, I hurriedly came out of the palace, and when I raised my eyes, I suddenly saw a white-clothed figure standing under the palace wall.
"Third brother. She let out a soft cry and walked over to the man.
Chu Yunxiang smiled at her, his smile was always so good-looking, "Chu Chu." ”
Chu Yun couldn't help but throw herself into his arms, hugged him, and hugged him tightly, she was afraid that he would suddenly disappear.
"Third brother, why are you here?"
"As you are, I am here. ”
She suddenly remembered Princess Qionghua, and heard the maid say that he had gone to see Princess Qionghua today.
"You're the new champion?"
He nodded, "It's just an identity." ”
"What did you do to Princess Qionghua?"
"Give her some medicine, and from now on she will have nightmares every day about her past crimes, and then she will be tormented every day until she dies of madness. ”
She was taken aback, "Princess Qionghua is not wrong. ”
"What was wrong with you back then? But that brute used you, used your father, and finally led troops into Chu, burying the great mountains and rivers of Chu, and what you did to them today is quite cheap. ”
"Chu Chu, don't be here anymore, this is not the place you should stay, you leave the Qi Palace, everything has a brother, and the brother will take revenge. ”
Chu Yun shook her head, how could she rest assured that he was left here alone?
As the two were talking, the tree opposite suddenly flashed, and they fixed their eyes and saw that there seemed to be a touch of red among the green leaves.
Chu Yunxiang snorted, "Who is it?"
"I want to ask what kind of monster you are, how dare you trespass into the Forbidden Palace?" a cold voice sounded, and then a large area of red like clouds in the sky fell from the sky, and the bright color suddenly brightened the broken and ruined remote palace room.
That's Yan Sha, and only Yan Sha can make people unconscious.
Chu Yunxiang was slightly stunned, pulled out the sword in his waist, and was about to step forward, when Chu Yun suddenly grabbed him from behind, "Third brother, don't do it." ”
She looked at Yan Xu, "What are you doing here?"
"Let's see who started to deal with the people of the Qi State, just at this moment, more than a dozen people have begun to have nightmares, and it is rumored everywhere in the palace that it is the unjust soul of the Chu Palace who has come to ask for their lives. I wonder what you guys have to say about that?"
Chu Yunxiang said: "That's right, I did it, I used Yunmeng incense, as long as I smell it, I will fall into a nightmare for the rest of my life." This medicine is in the wind, and it will spread to the palace in less than two days, and there will be more and more nightmares in the future. ”
Yan Xu raised his eyebrows, "It's quite capable, you can get this kind of thing, you, the remnant of the Chu State, are really prepared." ”
Being drunk and his identity was revealed, Chu Yunxiang was very annoyed, and shouted: "What are you going to do?"
"Isn't it good? I won't care if you attack the Qi Palace people, but there is one person who won't allow you to move. That's my mother, or I'll leave you in a different place. ”
He said and looked at Chu Yun, "You really make me more and more impressed." ”
Chu Yun's face was slightly cold, she didn't like him to talk to her like this, they originally said that he wouldn't care what she did.
She knew that he didn't care about anything, everyone's life here was dispensable with him, except for the woman who gave birth to him, and the rest might not be human in his eyes.
He is really cold-blooded like this. And what about her? What was she in his eyes? If she was in danger, would he protect her?
He said that he once owed her a relationship, he said that he would make up for her in this life, and he said that he and her should be together in this life.
There was a slight pain in my heart, because I didn't care about him, and because I was cold.
Chu Yunxiang said: "Chu Chu, I have already been poisoned, you still don't want to stay in this palace anymore, you hurry out of the palace, and wait for me to take revenge and find you, okay?"
Chu Yun nodded, who can she manage now?
Yan Sha has already left, he comes and goes fast, he will always be fluttering like this, like a ghost, as if nothing in this world can keep him.
Back at her residence, she asked the little snake to deliver a letter to the embassy, telling Chen Heng and Chen Fang's brother and sister to leave Qidu quickly.
She felt that there was going to be a big battle here, and since her third brother was here, he must be fully prepared, and he could never be alone, and when she saw the people with him that day, they were like ghosts, as if they were from the ghost clan.
Chen Heng and Chen Fang received the letter, and they didn't understand why Chu Yun asked them to leave for a while, but the two of them had always trusted her, and there was nothing wrong with Qi left and right, so after the two said goodbye to Chu Yun, they left.
Chu Yun personally sent them to the city gate, looked at their distant backs, and breathed a sigh of relief. She always had a feeling that she would never see them again in this life and this life.
In the following days, Qi fell into unprecedented fear, the people in the Qi Palace seemed to have fallen into evil, and everyone had nightmares and was in pain. For a time, there were a lot of medicines that were easily grasped, and the imperial doctors in the palace could not cure them well, so they went to the people to arrest many doctors and entered the palace. I heard that everyone who entered the palace never went back. For a while, people were panicked, and they didn't know what was going on.
