Transmigrated into ancient literature and killed the male protagonist to succeed

Chapter 177 Long live my emperor (64)

While Nanyue was busy with Pingzhou's affairs, Changguang Jun of Luzhou was furious because of the eldest son's mistake.

He got so angry that he hurt himself and has been bedridden ever since.

The eldest son Xue Chi was severely punished.

By the end of the year, news of Chang Guangjun's death came.

Two marquises who coveted Jiangzhou died in succession, and the officials of Jiangzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

But the governor of Jiangzhou was struggling.

It’s simple. Anyone with a bit of common sense can see what Chu Yu is thinking.

He admired Chu Yu very much and believed that he did have some real skills.

In addition, the issue of Pingzhou does need to be resolved. If Luzhou’s troops occupy it, then he will be the next one.

That's why he reached an agreement with them to lend him troops.

But that doesn't mean he wants to take sides.

If he took Jiangzhou back to Chu Yu, wouldn't he also be a traitor?

He didn't believe that Chu Yu was willing to work for the royal family, even though Chu Yu had been in Wenzhou under the banner of Daning before.

No matter what the governor of Jiangzhou thought, after struggling for a while and being fooled by Ji Huaian, he met with his good friend the governor of Wenzhou several times, but in the end, he inexplicably let Chu Yu temporarily live in Jiangzhou...

This river is too inconvenient, so Nan Yue brought everyone to Jiangzhou to facilitate future deployment.

Zuo Yi was finally taken away by his lord this time, and he almost cried for joy.

However, Tian Xiu and Yun Juan stayed in Wenzhou, as it was safer there and they were protected, so Nan Yue felt relieved.

Chu Yu hadn't seen his sister for some time, so he naturally pestered her to tell him how to take over Pingzhou.

But before he could get too long, he was taken away by Tuoba Ling to check his martial arts...

When he was leaving, he just happened to pass by the counselor who was coming in...

Ji Huaian stopped and looked back at his back, a hint of confusion flashed across his eyes.

"What are you standing there for?"

The boy's voice came.

Ji Huaian stepped into the room, curled the corners of his lips, and said, "I haven't seen you for a while. Miss Chu seems to have grown a lot taller."

His tone was light, as if he was just chatting casually.

But those beautiful eyes were fixed on Nan Yue, not missing any change in her expression.

The young man lowered his eyes to look at the book in his hand, and said calmly: "My sister is only two years older than me. Now is the time for her to grow up. She is not like an ordinary girl..."

The young man paused halfway through his speech, thinking of something, and suddenly looked up at him, "Brother Huai'an cares so much about my sister, could it be that you have some feelings for her?"

Sensing the displeasure in the boy's tone, Ji Huaian was stunned for a moment, then denied it: "Of course not, it's just that she is the lord's sister, so I paid more attention to her..."

Seeing the young man frown, he also realized that the more he explained, the worse it seemed.

Anyone would be unhappy if he found out that his subordinates were suspected of coveting his sister.

Although what he coveted was actually the person in front of him.

Ji Huaian sighed in his heart. Even though he found that Chu Yue seemed to be a little abnormal, he couldn't investigate further and was bound to be misunderstood.

But it is precisely because Chu Yue is Chu Yu's closest relative that he...

He smiled helplessly, bowed his hands and admitted his mistake, "Miss Chu is beautiful and intelligent, and graceful. It was Huai'an who overstepped his authority. My lord, please don't be angry. Huai'an has absolutely no improper thoughts about Miss Chu Yue."

Hearing his answer, Nan Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Oh?"

Then he deliberately asked, "Will there be no more in the future?"

Ji Huaian answered without hesitation: "There won't be any more in the future. My Lord, can you rest assured?"

He already has someone he loves, so how could he still yearn for another woman?

Being indecisive is not what a gentleman does.

Ji Huaian had only met Chu Yu a few times, and every time he would find something subtly wrong.

Nan Yue was not afraid of him knowing it, but he also had secrets, so how could she let him discover the truth and ruin her plans?

Now is not the time to restore your identity.

Nan Yue changed the subject, "You said before that Lord Chang Guang was ambushed, do you know who ambushed him?" Ji Huaian sat down opposite her and poured her a cup of tea, "My Lord, are you so sure that Huaian knows?"

Nan Yue put down the book and said, "Is there anything in this world that Brother Huai'an doesn't know?"

I don’t know whether this is a compliment or a mockery.

Since that day they came to Jiangzhou, the two of them have been getting along a little strangely after chatting on the boat.

Unlike the time when Ji Huaian was just abducted by her, although they sometimes competed with each other, Nan Yue knew his identity and would tease him occasionally.

Gradually, Ji Huaian let down his guard and began to serve as her adviser. All his strategies seemed to be just to achieve her goals.

After the trip to Li State, the two became closer...

But they all knew that this was only temporary.

Nan Yue was not naive enough to think that Ji Huaian would be willing to be her adviser.

Even if he had no ambitions, the forces behind him would not submit to her so easily.

Just like she would not bring her people to submit to him.

Of course, she could have chosen not to save him, or she could have extended the time to save him and let him rely on her to survive...

But Nan Yue wouldn't do that.

If you want to fight, do it honorably.

Ji Huaian's eyes moved slightly, and a hint of sadness appeared in his eyes.

How could he not know what the boy was thinking?

He stood beside the young man, accompanying her as she walked further and further away, watching her power grow and gain more and more people.

He was happy for her and proud of her.

She was the lord he assisted, and also the rival he watched grow up...

a long time.

Ji Huaian pursed his lips and said softly, "He is from Yunzhou."

Nan Yue was a little surprised that he would tell her the truth.

Isn't this his power?

It was a long time since we spoke again.

Ji Huaian stood up, as if he wanted to leave.

Nan Yue didn't stop him.

"The tea is getting cold."

After a pause, he reminded, breaking the silence in the room.

The sound of ringing pendants was heard, and Nan Yue went to pick up the teacup on the desk, but was grabbed by a bony hand...

His body temperature has always been lower than that of ordinary people. After being treated by Nan Yue for a long time, he finally got better, but his fingers were still a little cold, and only his palms were slightly warm.

The boy's hands were as white as jade. He often used knives and pens, so they had some calluses on them, which would not be noticeable unless you touched them carefully.

The young man grabbed her hand and lifted it up, interlocking his long fingers with hers forcefully, with their palms touching.

The wide sleeves swept across the edge of the table, and the teacup fell to the ground, leaving a puddle of water on the carpet.

The young man leaned forward, and a faint medicinal fragrance came from his body...

Nan Yue was slightly stunned and met a pair of beautiful eyes.

"Chu Yu."

Ji Huaian called her in a low voice.

The two were very close.

He could feel the boy's breath and see himself in the boy's eyes.

If he were just a little closer, he could touch the boy's lips...

His eyelashes trembled slightly, Ji Huaian turned his head away, avoiding the boy's gaze, and sighed: "Can't you... give me a little trust?"

Since they had already sent people to investigate secretly and found out that it was Yunzhou who did it, they had also guessed that he was related to Yunzhou.

Why do you want to test him on purpose?
Are you so sure that he won't tell the truth?
