Chapter 156

It turned out that the Eighth Prince of Chu State was King Huai of Chu. Yun Qing only realized when he stepped into the majestic Prince Huai's mansion that there were many omissions in the rumor about the First Marshal of Chu State.For example, the status of this prince is not inferior to the so-called second prince, nor inferior to the crown prince of the current dynasty. He is not destined for the throne because he does not have this ability, but because he is the eighth prince, not the eldest son of the previous king.

It's no wonder that as soon as he returned to court, he aroused the fear of the king of Chu and the second prince, and sent so many killers and soldiers to assassinate him.

When he followed Chu Huan into the living room of the palace, two servant girls from the inner hall came in a hurry, immediately laid out fur mats, served tea and fruit snacks, and saluted Chu Huan and Yun Qing: "Slave maids send greetings to the lord, this young master good!"

Yun Qing nodded slightly at them, then looked at Chu Huan, but saw that Chu Huan didn't even lift his head, but just picked up the tea bowl and asked slowly: "What happened in the palace recently?"

"If you go back to the prince, nothing happened. It's just that General Wei Lie and the fourth prince who guarded the southern border of Chu State three days ago suddenly returned to the palace, and His Royal Highness the King of Chu intends to confer the honor of the second prince as King Yi and the fourth prince. The king and the nine princes are King Xuan, and they will be given fiefdoms and built mansions," one of the more beautiful women said respectfully.

Yun Qing glanced at the woman, and saw that she was holding an ebony tray in her hand, wearing a long blue dress and a rat gray fur jacket, with a delicate appearance and a temperament similar to Lan Xing, and she seemed to be Chu Huan's capable subordinate.

"What do the court ministers say?" Chu Huan paused while drinking tea, and asked coldly.

"The ministers in the court strongly opposed it, thinking that since the previous king had made a decree, only the prince was allowed to be canonized as king, and the rules of passing the bowl 20 years later could not be changed, and the people of Chu State supported the prince's ascension. So That morning, the king and the princes broke up unhappy." The woman was speaking, and then she couldn't help but cast a cautious glance at Yun Qing, her eyes were a little wary.

"Miss Leng is the king's savior." Chu Huan still didn't look up, but he seemed to know that the servant girl was looking sideways at Yun Qing.

"It turned out to be the lord's benefactor. Please forgive Lanyue's rude offense just now, and accept Lanyue's worship." The woman was startled when she heard that Chu Huan called Yun Qing a girl, and then kowtowed to the ground. A salute.

"I don't dare to do it. In fact, I just happened by chance. When it comes to saving my life, I should be grateful to the prince." Yun Ting was startled when she heard that the woman was called Lan Yue, and then stood up and helped her up with some understanding.Lan Xi Lan Yue, they should be two sisters.

"You all go down, pack up a guest room for Miss Leng to live in, don't neglect." Chu Huan raised his eyes, glanced at Yun Qing lightly, and said coldly.

"Yes, the servant girl is leaving." Lan Yue and another maid immediately withdrew.

"This should be Miss Lan Jie's younger sister. No wonder I thought they were very similar when I first saw them." Yun Qing smiled and looked at Chu Huan, but saw Chu Huan looking at her with faint eyes, There is an indescribable depth.

Yun Qing was stunned for a moment!

"Miss Leng's dagger is very beautiful," Chu Huan said suddenly.

Yun Qing was startled, it was only when he came back to his senses that he subconsciously looked at his military boots, but found that there were no traces showing, but this seemingly inadvertent little movement was noticed by Chu Huan.

"Uh...a dagger?" Yun Qing pretended to be stupid and raised his eyebrows, but saw Chu Huan smiled lightly, his dark eyes shone with the sparkle of gemstones, as gentle as warm wind.Yun Qing was stunned again, while Chu Huan walked up to her and said with a smile: "Miss Leng doesn't seem to be good at lying." After finishing speaking, he suddenly raised his hand to stroke her forehead and gently pushed her away. A few broken hairs fell down, and cold fingers brushed her slightly raised eyebrows intentionally or unintentionally.

"What the lord is talking about, I don't understand." Yun Qing's heart suddenly rose to vigilance, she looked at Chu Huan with piercing eyes, and took a step back without a trace, opening the ambiguous distance between them.

Chu Huan's hands froze in mid-air, and his eyes sank, but then he calmly fell down and fell behind him.Qingjun's face was still calm, without anger or embarrassment, but very kindly said: "Miss Leng is the first person in this world who is willing to lend a helping hand to the king and save me, so if Miss Leng has Whatever it is, just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will do whatever it takes." After finishing speaking, he turned around and strode out.

Yun Qing was stunned because of these calm words. She looked at Chu Huan's handsome but desolate black figure stepping out of the living room with a little gloomy eyes, and her heart was touched unconsciously.This man didn't seem to be as dangerous as imagined, but his whole body was covered with a layer of cold breath and alienation, and this dull feeling even made her forget to hide her emotions.

She is very good at lying. Seven years ago in Xuanye Palace, she could control the whole situation between her applause, she could tell Ling Yexuan unblinking love words without blinking her eyes, and she could intimidate Ling Yexuan with a calm expression. Hundreds of officials can suppress the concubines in the harem with guns and sticks, but now, facing such a cold and lonely man, they have lost that ability.

Sighing slightly, Yun Qing withdrew her gaze, and couldn't help but look at the whole palace, but just after taking a few glances, Chu Huan's indifferent face and the words about the dagger began to flash in her mind again.

He should already know that she was the woman who attacked and killed the man in black under the rock that night.But she didn't feel nervous, maybe it was his lonely and cold expression, maybe they were just strangers, not familiar with each other's identities, let alone any conflict of interest, that's why they were so relaxed...

Tonight is the key, but tomorrow, will she really see the cold war day?

After a night of silence, when Yun Qing got up the next day, she saw Lan Yue walking into the room with a smile, and said to her respectfully: "Morning girl, my lord please go to the hall in the front yard."

Yun Qing was stunned for a moment at first, then put on his clothes and followed Lanyue to the hall, who knows, before stepping into the door of the hall, a snow-white and wet object flew out with a whooping sound, After entering Yun Qing's arms, there was a burst of saliva licking, almost washing Yun Qing's face.

In the hall, everyone who saw this scene couldn't help laughing, and then Wei Yan and others hurried out of the living room, stepped into the snow and kowtowed to Yunqing.

Seeing that everyone was fine, Yun Qing felt a little relieved, and asked Wei Yan how he broke through the siege, but Wei Yan smiled and said: "Returning to your son, it is thanks to General Li Liao, he really is a one-man guard. You are invincible, after the young master left, he subdued all the killers not long after."
