Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 1173 Where to place the Princess of Chu

"The envoy of Chu State has arrived!"

As the guards' shouts fell, a neatly dressed, white-faced, beardless middle-aged man strode in, followed by an attendant holding a delicate black box in both hands.

"The envoy of Chu State, Yang Zhengyi, is here to see His Highness King Chen!"

Princess Yingxue took a closer look.

It was said that she knew all the senior officials of the Chu State or above, or at least looked familiar to them. The person who came here was very unfamiliar, so naturally he could not be an important member of the Chu State.

Thinking about it again, it was just a matter of exchanging food and grass for someone else. Maybe the new governor of Mucheng stopped by to do some errands.

Little Mucheng Prefect, how could she know him?

Murong Chen had never taken the Chu State seriously, let alone this small official from the Chu State who was as big as a sesame seed and a mung bean.

She didn't even look at him, and didn't bother to chat with him. She said directly: "Where is the food and grass now?"

"Go back to Your Highness! The grain and grass are just outside Mucheng, ready to go. As long as Your Highness keeps his promise and sends the people he needs to send safely across the border of Yan State, the grain and grass will be waiting for Your Highness at the junction of Yan and Chu!"

The envoy was neither humble nor arrogant, which made Princess Yingxue give him a high look.

Murong Chen had met many Chu officials in the past, and they were more or less afraid of the tall and brutal Yan people, especially themselves.

But the Chu envoy looked calm and composed from beginning to end, which made him finally take a closer look.

“Exceedingly thoughtful!”

The Chu State envoy bent down and held his hands in his hands: "I am honored to meet His Highness King Chen, so I must be more considerate."

After saying that, he looked back at the attendant, who immediately opened the box, and the envoy carefully took out the document with both hands.

Murong Chen raised his chin towards Fei Shi, who immediately understood, stepped forward, took the document, and presented it to King Chen.

Throughout the meeting with the Chu envoy, Murong Chen acted in a lazy manner, as if he wanted to psychologically suppress the Chu envoy's momentum to a minimum.But the moment he got the paperwork, his hands shook.

If Xiaoguang's information is wrong, or there is a problem with his own judgment,
Then what is written in this document is that the prince of Chu and the princess of Chu left together.

Murong Chen raised his head and glanced at Princess Yingxue.

Princess Yingxue wanted to go home. When King Chen looked over, she smiled flatteringly.

Murong Chen was even more worried.

No matter how perfect the reason was, as long as the document said she was allowed to go back, in the end she couldn't go back. I'm afraid this damn girl would eventually blame herself.

I don’t know if I will ever see such a sweet smile from her again.

Thinking of this, Murong Chen took Princess Yingxue's big hand and squeezed it tighter.

Princess Yingxue knew nothing about his thoughts and pouted at him coquettishly, meaning, there are so many people here, can you stop being so clingy?
Murong Chen's heart was beating violently.

He took a deep breath, that's all, you can't escape what is coming after all!
He slowly opened the document, and after taking a few glances, the corners of his gloomy mouth immediately raised.

Then he deliberately looked angry and threw the document on the desk.

"Why does this document say that there is only one Crown Prince of Chu? Where does that put the Princess of Chu!"

Only the prince of Chu?

Princess Yingxue's face tightened, and she hurriedly looked at the document, but Murong Chen just closed it, and she couldn't read a word clearly.

"Returning to His Majesty King Chen, I, His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Chu Kingdom, would like me to tell you this."

The envoy looked at Princess Yingxue, whose face had turned pale, with a trace of unbearable expression on her brows.
