The Xianze Mountains, which stretch for thousands of miles, are inlaid in the center of Chu State like a crouching giant dragon, and it is used as a boundary to divide the north and south of Chu State.

The Xianze Mountains are large and deep, even the most seasoned hunters never dare to go deep into the Xianze Mountains.

Counting dozens of generations from the state of Chu, no one who went deep into the Xianze Mountains came back alive.

And on this night when you can't see your fingers, on the northernmost mountain of Xianze Mountain Range, on Yanshan Mountain near the capital, there are faint shadows of torches shaking.

Going deep into the thick forest, there is a rare valley.

By the gurgling stream, soldiers in black armor were lying on the ground, the exhaustion on their faces was obvious.

"How long are we going to stay in the mountains?"

"That depends on the general's plan."

The soldiers leaned on each other and huddled together. Facing the bewildered prospect, they talked about the march with anxiety and anticipation.

When they spoke, they had a strong Sichuan accent.

"I heard that we will stay in this valley for more than ten days, and we can only go out after the signal is sent."

"Can we really win? I heard that there are 3 imperial guards in the capital, not to mention that there are many generals in command. Our battle may be suspended."

"Keep your voice down!"

An elderly Baihu had an ugly face and hurriedly scolded the soldiers around him.

He looked around and saw that no one noticed their movement, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "You can't talk nonsense, since we have come, there is no way out, except to attack the capital and let the prince take it." The throne, we have no choice!"

"Did you remember it?"

Xiao Bing had already been frightened by his fierce appearance just now, so he didn't dare to feel a little bit dissatisfied, and nodded quickly: "Remember it, little one! Never dare to say such words again!"

Baihu patted him on the shoulder and went to patrol elsewhere.

It's just that everyone's face, including Baihu's, is inevitably worried.

Can they really win?

Under the same night sky, the starlight shines on Gu Qingqiu's delicate face.

She looked at the handsome and tall man in front of her, and wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she burst into tears.

Hearing the cry of his sweetheart, Chu Yunyi felt extremely distressed.

He gently hugged Gu Qingqiu's waist, and gently wiped away the tears on her face with his fingers: "Qingqiu, this is just a stopgap measure, for a stupid woman like Gu Ning, why would I take another look at her? "

Gu Qingqiu leaned on his chest, feeling his strong heartbeat, secretly clenched his teeth.

Maybe even Chu Yunyi didn't realize it, but now he mentioned Gu Ning in a softer tone than before.

After all, the trip to the south of the Yangtze River left behind hidden dangers!

Gu Qingqiu clenched her hands tightly, but pretended to be ignorant of it, she only complained in a low voice: "But Your Highness, the County Mistress is so beautiful that even a man would fall in love with her."

"Could it be that in Qingqiu's eyes, I'm such a man who is so luscious and blind?" Chu Yunyi gently pinched her cheek, and said with a smile, "It's just a skin, and I've never liked an idiot with nothing but looks .”

Hearing this, Gu Qingqiu became even more nervous.

She frowned and said worriedly: "But I heard that the county magistrate has done a lot of good deeds in the south of the Yangtze River, and she is not as rumored..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Chu Yunyi's laughter.

"Do you believe those rumors?" Chu Yunyi said disdainfully, "She only knows how to have fun in the south of the Yangtze River. In the past, people praised her a few times, and she would send people to give money to raise money to build dams. It's a big deal. What the eldest princess did was just to make Gu Ning's reputation better and let her sit firmly in the position of Princess Duan."

Gu Qingqiu still wanted to speak, but the hands that kept wandering around her body made her voice become intermittent: "Your Highness... this is outside!"

The two were by the moat. Although there was no sound of people around, it was outdoors. Such an intimate move made her very uneasy.

Seeing her shy appearance, Chu Yunyi laughed a few times, and directly hugged her in his arms: "Qingqiu, you and I will be husband and wife sooner or later, why should you be so restrained?"

Hearing this, Gu Qingqiu turned around and stomped his feet, his flushed face turned cold again: "I'm not His Highness's wife! In ten days or so, Your Highness will marry the county and pass the country!"

"It's just a stopgap measure." Chu Yunyi said helplessly, "I can't help but marry her. You also know that she has the Pei family behind her. I must get half of the soldier talisman from the Eldest Princess!"

Gu Qingqiu's eyes darkened, and it was another soldier talisman!

She is full of love, but in Chu Yunyi's eyes, she is no match for a soldier talisman!

But soon, she regained her composure and hugged Chu Yunyi's waist tightly: "Your Highness, this world will be yours sooner or later. Is that half of the soldier talisman so important?"

"Father made a promise in front of the emperor's grandfather that he would never touch the soldier talisman in the hands of the Eldest Princess. Unless she gave it to me willingly, I would definitely not get the soldier talisman." Chu Yunyi's brows were full of dissatisfaction. Nai, "I don't want to curry favor with her either, but during this period of time, my father has placed a lot of importance on the fourth and sixth children. If I don't take more bargaining chips, how will I be able to sit on the crown prince?"

Seeing that Gu Qingqiu didn't answer for a long time, he comforted him again; "Don't worry, when I sit on the crown prince, I will marry you in as a side concubine."

"I promise you, the position of queen will always be yours!" Chu Yunyi promised affectionately in Gu Qingqiu's ear, "No one can take away your position in my heart!"

Gu Qingqiu responded shyly, but a ball of anger had already burst out in her heart.

Promise?

Ah!A man's promise is the most unreliable. She once trusted the man in front of her, but in the end, she could only get an empty promise.

She suppressed the anger in her heart and kept all her plans in her heart.

……

The Empress Dowager's birthday banquet is getting closer, and Zhuquefang has a lot of southern accents.

On the carriage, Gu Ning lifted a corner of the curtain, looked at each person, and there seemed to be a coldness in her eyes.

"Master, what's the difference?"

Gu Ning shook his head, leaning on the soft bed very leisurely: "It's not the same, I'm just surprised by the excitement on the street."

"The feudal lords and aristocratic families from all over the country have basically entered the capital, just waiting for the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. Naturally, there are many people on the street." Chunyu poured a cup of tea for Gu Ning with a smile, "You came out today, didn't you also want to Want to take a stroll?"

Gu Ning rolled his eyes and sighed: "My mother is still ill, I don't have much interest in shopping."

"It's just..." Gu Ning sighed again, "For the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, I always have to dress up."

Chunyu covered her mouth, giggled and said, "The county lord can use this excuse in front of outsiders later, they won't doubt the county lord's intentions."

While speaking, the carriage had already stopped in front of a tailor shop.

This is the property of the Pei family - Jinxiu Pavilion.

The brocade from the south of the Yangtze River and the brocade from the Shu region were all sent to the Jinxiu Pavilion except for the tribute. It is precisely because of such rare fabrics that the Jinxiu Pavilion can gain a firm foothold in the capital where there are so many garment shops.

After hundreds of years of development, Jinxiu Pavilion has already become the largest ready-made clothing store in the capital city, catching women of all ages in one go.

In addition to Jinxiu Pavilion, Zhucuifang is also the property of the Pei family.

One sells ready-made clothes and the other sells jewelry, and the monthly profit is very considerable.

Gu Ning came today to try on the ready-to-wear and jewelry that he ordered at the beginning, and to go out for a while.

As soon as the carriage with the emblem of the Pei Mansion stopped, the shop assistants came out to greet him.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and the oncoming woman was so gorgeous that the man was startled, and quickly fell to his knees: "See the county lord!"

"I'm here to try on the clothes, so there's no need to do such a big gift." Gu Ning walked out of the carriage with Chunyu's support, looked around, raised his chin haughtily, and held back his arrogant and domineering posture.

Her appearance has attracted the attention of many people.

But fearing Gu Ning's reputation, no one dared to speak up.

Gu Ning proudly walked into the Jinxiu Pavilion, the shopkeeper put down the abacus in his hand, and ran to Gu Ning's side in small steps: "The little Liuxian skirt has been prepared a long time ago, the county master can just go inside and try it."

Gu Ning nodded in disbelief, she was playing with her nails, someone had already arranged the interior.

Just as she was about to go in, a sight that could not be ignored made her stop.

At the door, a man with a handsome appearance was talking to the woman beside him. His gentle and jade-like demeanor attracted a lot of attention.

If it was someone else, Gu Ning would not have paid more attention, but this man was the one she just knocked out a few days ago - Yan Yu.

Gu Ning's heart was full of alarm bells, but he still pretended to be nonchalant on the surface. He just put his curious eyes on Yan Yu for a while, then turned his head and walked into the room.

Her heart was beating like thunder, and she kept asking in her heart: "He won't recognize me?"

Like her, the system was extremely guilty: "The host may wish to look at it later, maybe you are thinking too much."

Hearing this, Gu Ning raised his eyebrows: "Is it because of my face?"

system:……

"A male second with such affection will not be fascinated by beauty." The system plausibly said, "The host must be thinking too much."

Gu Ning snorted lightly and put the matter behind her.

She was so blinded that day, how could Yan Yu recognize her?Besides, even if he recognized it, he wouldn't believe it.

Who would have thought that a county head would go to Qianjin Pavilion?

Yan Yu didn't look back until the door was closed.

The beauty next to him pouted and looked at him with winking eyes: "My lord, I also want a fairy dress from Jinxiu Pavilion."

"Go and pick." Yan Yu patted her shoulder ambiguously, with an extremely gentle tone.

Her face was covered with red clouds, she twisted her waist and walked in.

Yan Yu was left standing outside the door with dim eyes.

those eyes...

He could not be mistaken, no one in this world would have such a pair of clear eyes.

It's just that Gu Ning, who is the magistrate of the county, why did he go to Qianjin Pavilion?Did she discover something?

The original plan was completely disrupted because of this one glance, Yan Yu thought for a while, and put this matter behind for the time being.
