A group of people left the capital of Dachu and headed for Yao Kingdom in the north.

Sitting in the carriage, Chu Chen looked at the capital city that was drifting away, but there was no disturbance in his heart.

"Master, are you reluctant to leave?" Chongyang asked.

"You look like this king, doesn't he seem reluctant?" Chu Chen said.

Outside the carriage, Lu Jing who was riding side by side on the horse heard the words and said: "The people your Highness cares about are not in the capital anymore. If he still has nostalgia, I'm afraid he only misses the belongings in the old mansion of the palace that haven't had time to be exchanged for bank notes."

"Hahahaha." Hearing this, Chu Chen laughed and said, "Young Master, who knows me."

Lu Xuan smiled when he heard this, and raised an eyebrow at Chu Chen.

Chu Chen looked at Lu Jing and asked, "I'm quite curious. If it were the young master who would go to a foreign country, and there would be no return date, would the young master feel sad?" Chu Chen The reason why he asked this question was because he came here halfway, and he didn't grow up in Dachu since he was a child, so he didn't have much affection for this land.

But he couldn't tell whether the reason for his lack of emotion was because he had been here for too short a time, or because he was completely disappointed in Da Chu.So he was very curious about how Lu Jing, who had a different experience from him, had feelings for Da Chu.

"Lu Mou is not very sad at this time anyway. When he comes back, he will be alone, so it will not be safe." Lu Jing sniffed his nose exaggeratedly, and said: "But think about it carefully, if there is someone in this foreign country. It's not that I can't consider a good family relationship. It's best to give me a handsome and lovely young master, then Lu will hide in the gentle village and won't come out, and he won't have time to miss his homeland."

Chongyang who was at the side said, "Don't you know, little Marquis Lu? The people of Yao are very rude, where is the gentleness?"

"Really?" Lu Jing took a meaningful look at Chu Chen, and said, "Lu Mou thinks Mu Tiankuo is pretty good, and he has no choice for his looks. It's just that he is rude or not, Lu Mou But there’s no chance of knowing.”

Chongyang subconsciously looked at Chu Chen when he heard the words.

"What do you think this king is doing?" Chu Chen asked.

Chongyang: ...

The only person present who has a chance to know, isn't it just you?

"Well..." Chu Chen is not a person who can't get rid of his face. A group of big men talk about this kind of topic together. As long as he restrains his words, he can't accept it, so he said: "Mu Tiankuo is not rude at all. , considerate and thoughtful, I am very satisfied."

Chongyang curled his lips when he heard the words, obviously not agreeing with this evaluation.

He remembers it very clearly...His Highness has been walking for several days...

But of course, these words can't be said by Lu Xiaohou, it's too far away.

"Mu Tiankuo is the ninth eldest, with eight older brothers and two younger brothers." Lu Jing said, "Except for those who are already married, plus those who are too old and too young, I am afraid that there is no one to choose for Lu Jing. Someone. But if someone with a lower status, it would be wrong to match up with Lu, it seems that Lu will really go back alone during this trip."

Chu Chen laughed and said: "If it is true, how can Lord Lu Xiaohou really not come back?"

"Why not?" Lu Jing said: "Da Chu, I'm tired of waiting, and I have to be someone's dog's leg when I come back. I'm tired. How can I be as gentle as the village and make people miss me."

Chu Chen: ...

That's a good relationship, the prince spent so much time sending Lu Jing to fetch the elixir.

Awesome!

A group of people went northward all the way, without rushing or slowing down, and arrived at the northern border of Dachu in less than ten days.

The post house in the town here is the last post house in the northern border of Great Chu. If they continue to move forward, they will stay in the post house of Yao State at the next stop.

Everyone settled here, and after the concubine Rong was settled, Chu Chen went to find Lu Jing.

During this journey, Lu Jing stayed in the room next to Chu Chen, just in case there was someone to take care of her at any time.

"Why, it's almost time to arrive in Yao Kingdom, Your Highness is thinking of quitting?" Lu Jing asked.

"This king has a heartless request, and I want to ask Lord Lu Xiaohou for a favor." Chu Chen said.

Lu Jing deliberately put on a posture and said: "Oh, the prince has used the word begging, it seems to be a big deal. But the prince knows about Lu, and he doesn't easily do business without oil and water, so the prince asks for help, but You have to take advantage of it."

"In the mansion in the capital, the king has left you a lot of belongings." Chu Chen said.

"Lu is not that vulgar, he doesn't want money." Lu Xuan said.

Chu Chen was taken aback, at first he thought he was joking, but now he was a little unsure, so he asked, "Then what do you want, the young master who dares to ask you, who is not vulgar?"

"Hey." Lu Jing showed a wicked smile, and moved towards Chu Chen.

Chu Chen stood there without moving, and looked back at him calmly. Before Lu Jing approached, he was cowed by Chu Chen's gaze.

"At any rate, we have had a relationship with a marriage contract. Can we not be so unfamiliar in the future? It's always the little lord." Lu Jing sat on the chair in front of the table, looked at Chu Chen and said, "Your Highness and Lu , can we match each other by name?"

Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words: "This request is indeed not vulgar, it is very strange."

Lu Jing smiled when she heard the words, and said pretending to be nasty: "Shen Chen, you can call me Jing Jing."

"Lu Jing, if you continue like this, I might spit it out in front of your face." Chu Chen warned.

Lu Jing hurriedly raised her hand in a half-surrender gesture and said, "I won't trouble you anymore, just tell me, please ask me for something."

Hearing this, Chu Chen glanced at the direction behind Lu Jing, Lu Jing understood, and said, "Don't worry, I brought all my confidantes this time, there are people outside to guard you, and no third person will hear your conversation with me. .”

"I'm about to go to the Kingdom of Yao, so I can't take my mother with me to get married. Mu Tiankuo has met her before, so it's hard to explain to him then." Chu Chen said: "And I'm not sure what he's thinking , I'm not sure if he will show mercy to me, so I can't let her take risks with me before I'm sure."

Lu Jing's face returned to seriousness, and she asked, "You want to put her outside?"

"Yes." Chu Chen said: "I originally wanted to ask Chongyang to handle this matter, but I didn't expect you to come along with me this trip. I think, if you are willing to help me with this matter, after arriving in Yao Kingdom, I will also help you." Can be more at ease."

"I've been thinking about this question along the way. If you don't mention it tonight, I'll ask you before I leave." Lu Jing said: "Leave this to me. I came here a few years ago There is a town about two or three days away from the Kingdom of Yao, and there is a lot of business in that town, there are merchants from both Dachu and Yao, so even if there are new faces, they will not attract attention."

"Is it close to King Yao's city?" Chu Chen asked.

"It's less than a day's journey." Lu Jing said: "I will send people to set off early overnight. When we get there, we will prepare the accommodation first. We will set off tomorrow. When we are about to reach the town, you take the people and continue to move forward. I will see you off in person... ...Send your mother there. After she is settled, I will leave two guards to protect her, and then I will meet you at the post in the back."

Hearing this, Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and bowed solemnly to Lu Jing.

Lu Jing stretched out her hand to stop her, and said with a smile, "Don't be polite to me. If you feel sorry, come to Yao Kingdom and help me find a nice young master."

Chu Chen couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, but his heart finally calmed down.

He had been planning for Concubine Rong's shelter all along the way, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly in the end.

"After arriving in Wangcheng, I will try my best to meet my sister." Chu Chen said: "I don't know if she will be successful in Yao Kingdom. If her situation is optimistic, maybe she can place my mother with her in the future. I just hope... Don't make her situation too difficult."

Lu Jing said in a deep voice: "If the princess is in a dire situation, are you planning to save her?"

"I can't bear her suffering, but I won't show my strength." Chu Chen said, "Saving my own life is the most important thing."

Lu Jing was afraid that he would not be able to figure it out before, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he still had confidence in Chu Chen, and he even felt that Chu Chen might enjoy more in Yao Kingdom than in Da Chu.

After all, the entire imperial family of Da Chu was already rotten. Even though Chu Chen was extremely clever, he had no room for development. He was either used by the emperor or pushed around by the prince all day long.

But Lu Jing thought about it again, isn't he the same?A man who is skilled in martial arts and has led soldiers, now he is entrusted to be a tool for taking medicine just because of his close relationship with Chu Chen.

Chu Chen originally thought that if Lu Jing would help, the matter would go smoothly.

It wasn't until he told Chongyang about his arrangement that he realized that he had taken it for granted.

"This subordinate will not leave His Highness even if he dies." After Chongyang heard that Chu Chen was going to arrange for him to take care of Concubine Rong, he became anxious: "This subordinate has been with His Highness for so many years, no merit but hard work, Your Highness is now Do you have the heart not to be subordinate?"

Chu Chensheng was afraid that he would cry again, so he hurriedly persuaded him: "My mother is alone, and I need a reliable person to guard me to be at ease. Chongyang, you are the person I trust the most, so I let you follow her."

"Your Majesty has bells to take care of her. Wouldn't the Young Master also send someone there?" Chongyang said, "Who else is there with Your Highness? What if someone bullies you when you get there? What if Mu Tiankuo repays His Highness with revenge ..."

Chu Chen comforted: "I won't be bullied in the Yao State, it has nothing to do with you being around. Even if you stay with me day and night, can you stop it? But the mother is different, she is alone in the deep palace. The woman who has lived for more than 20 years suddenly came to a foreign country, and there is only one familiar person beside her, Ling'er. The little marquis's guard is naturally powerful, but she doesn't know her, how can she feel at ease?"

"Subordinate..." Chongyang seemed to be persuaded by Chu Chen, but he was really worried about Chu Chen.

Seeing this, Chu Chen tried to persuade her while the iron was hot: "Once I have news from my sister, I will arrange for her to meet with my mother. If the time goes well, you can still come back to me."

"Really?" Chongyang asked.

"This king has never lied to you." Chu Chen said.

Chongyang knew that Chu Chen had made up his mind, and no matter how persistent he was, he also knew that Chu Chen's arrangement was right, but how could he leave Chu Chen with peace of mind?If His Royal Highness didn't have him by his side, it would be so pitiful that there would be no one to complain.

Thinking of this, Chongyang already wanted to cry, so she hurriedly covered her face and went out.

Chu Chen looked at the opponent's back, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. His future was uncertain, and letting Chongyang follow would only put the opponent in danger.It's better to send him away, so that he can take care of Concubine Rong and stay away from right and wrong.

On the day before parting, Chu Chen and Concubine Rong rode in the same carriage.Chu Chen had already made it clear to Concubine Rong in advance, and today he was afraid that the other party would be sad, so he didn't dare to say anything more.But Concubine Rong has been suppressing her emotions along the way, and Chu Chen can feel it to some extent.

When they were about to leave, Lu Jing reminded him through the curtain of the car.

Chu Chen said to Concubine Rong: "Mother, don't worry, I will find my sister as soon as possible, and no matter what news I have, I will tell you as soon as possible." Concubine Rong suppressed her sadness and nodded, and said to Chu Chen: " When you arrive in Wangcheng, take care of yourself first, and take time to do other things, so don't get confused."

"Well, I know." Chu Chen said: "Lu Jing helped to set up the house. It's not too big, so as not to be ostentatious. But with Ling'er and Chongyang looking after it, it shouldn't be too hard. We don't need money, so we don't have to. Save the flowers."

Concubine Rong nodded her head, her eyes were red, tears were about to fall out.

"I'm leaving, mother take care of yourself." After Chu Chen finished speaking, he was about to stand up. Concubine Rong held his hand and said, "Chen'er, don't be arrogant. When you get there, you must learn to endure. A man can bend and stretch."

"Mother, don't worry, I will be a man with my tail between my legs." Chu Chen smiled.

Concubine Rong nodded, and after Chu Shen got off the carriage, tears still burst out of her eyes.

But although she was sad, she was also full of hope.At the very least, it was only a day's journey from King Yao's city. Her son and daughter were not far away, and it was the day when they finally met.It was better than that she was far away in the Great Chu Palace and had no hope for her whole life.

Chu Chen changed the carriage and exchanged a glance with Lu Xuan.

Lu Jing led the people to the fork in the road, while Chu Chen and the rest of the people continued to move towards King Yao's city.

If there is no accident, before dawn tomorrow, Lu Jing will be able to rush to the next station, Chushenhui.

Chu Chen and his party continued to walk for half a day, and arrived at the post house in Yao Kingdom.

One of Lu Jing's subordinates, a guard named Wang Heng, took the paperwork and went up to negotiate with the people in the Yao Country Station. Unexpectedly, the other party expressed surprise and bewilderment at their arrival.

"According to etiquette, the Kingdom of Yao should have a team to welcome the relatives. Now that we have entered the territory of the Kingdom of Yao, not only do you have no one to welcome you, but you don't even have any arrangements for the posthouse. Isn't this too absurd? "Wang Heng said displeased.

Hearing the words, the people in the post office said: "Maybe you should ask the people in the Ministry of Rites about this, but we really didn't receive any instructions, and the whole Yao country has never heard of any prince who wants to marry the prince of Dachu." ah."

When Chu Chen heard this through the car curtain, he guessed that something went wrong in a certain link.

It stands to reason that a person like Mu Tiankuo shouldn't be so boring as to neglect him in this kind of matter.

But what exactly went wrong, he wasn't sure for a moment.

"Wang Heng, don't argue with them. They're just doing business, so there's nothing to argue with." Chu Chen said to Wang Heng, "You ask them to send people to the city to ask. If there is no such thing as marriage, we will Forget it when you return to the ground, and treat it as a trip.”

Wang Heng: ...

The Sixth Highness really took it easy.

Although the people in the post office of Yao State did not receive the order, but now that the two countries are on good terms, they dare not neglect.While rushing to Wangcheng to report the letter, he respectfully invited Chu Chen and his party into the post house and settled them down, with a polite and thoughtful attitude.
