Zhenqing lowered her head and picked up the cup on the coffee table, and took a shallow sip.Thousands of words turned and turned in his mouth, but he was still speechless after all.The mother in Fu Qiming's mouth is completely different from the mother in his memory.

He moved his lips and said a word.

"Brother Fu, are you willing to surrender?"

Fu Qiming scoffed: "Young master, of course I know that you can't win with the court. But let me just say it straight. I'm a businessman, and I can tell that I'm following Yan Qi and can't see tomorrow. How about I will fight with my brothers myself."

Zhenqing showed a gentle smile: "Brother Fu doesn't know something, Vice General Yan is in poor health, and the emperor is very dissatisfied with him. Now I have sent my prince to supervise, and it is not necessarily Vice General Yan who you are following."

Fu Qiming was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a clear expression: "Fu, willing to follow the Chu family!"

"Okay!" Zhen Qing got up and said goodbye with a smile.

Liu Mu looked at Zhenqing's face and asked, "How is it?"

"Everything went well." Zhenqing replied.

"But I think the young master's complexion is very bad?"

"It's okay. I'm just a little tired." Zhenqing raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brows.

Is the Jiangnan famous prostitute that Fu Qiming talks about really his mother?

The mother in my impression is always careless about dressing up, only occasionally taking pictures of herself in the mirror.He never saw his mother dance or play the piano, she always supported him by sewing or doing laundry.Rarely, when he is in a good mood, he hums an unknown tune softly.

But most of the time, the mother is restless, irritable, always cursing his missing father, always repeating to him not to trust others, not to give your heart to others.

No one will love you but me.

Zhenqing suddenly thought of Chu Xi's always smiling face.He froze for a moment, then smiled contemptuously.

In the middle of the night, the guard guarding the gate was called to drink.Seeing that the person left, Zhenqing walked into Yan Qi's room lightly.

Yan Qi, who was still in a coma, was covered with silver needles.

The military doctor gave him an injection and gave him medicine. At present, it seems that there is no major problem except that he is still unconscious.

Zhenqing looked at it silently for a while, then stretched out her hand and pulled out a silver needle, and then pressed the tip of the needle to his neck.

The beautiful face was as pale as snow in the watery moonlight, and the wrist was exerted, and the silver needle pierced the skin, bit by bit.

A hand grabbed Zhenqing's thin neck fiercely.Yan Qi actually woke up!

The neck seemed to be clamped by iron tongs, and it was impossible to breathe. Zhenqing still pushed the silver needle into it bit by bit.

Gradually I couldn't breathe, the things in front of me began to blur, and my hands lost strength little by little.

The hands of the two hang down almost at the same time.

Yan Qi's eyes were wide open, his hands were still clenched, but they had already fallen to the edge of the bed.

Zhenqing coughed violently while supporting himself on the ground. In order to reduce the noise, he covered his mouth with his left hand and coughed muffledly.

After a long while, Zhenqing reluctantly stood up, lightly wiped Yan Qi's eyelids, and then placed his hands.After finishing all this, he tidied up his clothes, walked out, and returned to his room as if nothing had happened.

Early the next morning.

Zhenqing and Chuxi had breakfast together.

Chu Xi asked, "How about the persuasion?"

Zhenqing: "Everything is fine."

"Liu Muyi said, you had a private chat with the other party. What's going on?"

Zhen Qing frowned, "It's nothing."

Chu Xi didn't know what to say, so she had to drink the porridge in silence.

Lowering his head, he saw a purple-red trace on Zhenqing's exposed neck.

!!!

He immediately realized that it was a pinch mark!As soon as she stretched out her hand, she planned to fish Zhenqing over to see what happened... With a movement of her fingers, Zhenqing put down the bowl and stood up: "I'm going out for a walk."

Without waiting for an answer, he walked out on his own.

Chu Xi looked at Zhen Qing's cold face, and silently withdrew her hand.

Forget it.

As soon as Zhenqing left, a soldier ran in in a panic on his back.

"My lord! Deputy General Yan is dead!"

"What? Chu Xi stood up and walked quickly towards the room where Yan Qi was placed.

"The villain saw that there was no movement in the morning, so he went in and took a look. Deputy General Yan was already out of breath."

Chu Xi said "hmm", pushed the door open and entered.

Yan Qi was lying on the bed, the silver needle on his back hadn't been removed yet.

Chu Xi walked over to have a look.Yan Qi showed an awkward posture with one hand, as if he was holding something.

The marks on Zhenqing's neck came to mind again.

Chu Xi stood there silent for a while: "Send someone to pack up and send the body back to his hometown."

"Don't you need to come here?" A soldier asked tremblingly.

"No need, he died from poison."

Little Prince Chu has spoken, so no one else dares to say anything more.Chu Xi looked at Zhen Qing who was standing at the door, and walked over.Xu Zhenqing just stood there expressionless, watching everything that happened.

For the first time, Chu Xi walked past him without saying a word.

Zhenqing tightened her fingers and left in the opposite direction.

In the afternoon, Fu Qiming's surrender letter arrived.

The sincerity of this writing is extremely high, firstly explaining that the rebellion is really a last resort, and then that he admires the King of Chu's demeanor so much, and is willing to serve the country under the command of the young prince of Chu, as long as there is food to eat.

Chu Xi replied to the letter herself and ordered someone to deliver it.He had a terrible headache, and he didn't dare to ask what happened to the mark on Zhenqing's neck. He had an intuition that Yan Qi's death had something to do with him.

But, but, he didn't dare to think about it.

Xu Zhenqing who has such penetrating eyes, Xu Zhenqing who can be very happy with the general in her arms, Xu Zhenqing who leans on the beauty house and basks in the sun.He didn't dare to think about it, he didn't want to think about it.

Although he hated Yan Qi, he didn't want him to die.This sudden incident made him at a loss, Lin'an solved it, everything is fine, only he himself is not feeling well.

Three days after Prince Chu arrived in Lin'an, the rebel army surrendered.Without any effort, he brought [-] troops into his command.When the news spread to the capital, Chu Yuanzhi showed a smile that he hadn't seen for many days.

With a swipe of his pen, he promoted Chu Xi to be the deputy general, replacing Yan Qi.

It doesn't matter if you lose a useless one.

What he cared more about was the peace petition sent by the prince of Xijiang.

Tuoba Yuan showed that she was obsessed with ghosts for a while, and she was willing to call the Southern Dynasty the emperor, pay the annual tribute, and never disturb her.

Chu Yuanzhi showed a smile, finally, there was one less thing to worry about.

With the tribute from Xijiang, the finances that cannot make ends meet for a year can be improved.Tuoba Yuan obediently retreated to the defense, and he could order the Chushu team to return to the court and draw troops to deal with the rebels.

The courtiers praised this greatly, saying that it was God who favored the new emperor and secretly helped General Chu win the victory.

I am indeed suitable for this position, and even the sky is on my side.Chu Yuanzhi played with the white jade pen in his hand, showing a half-smile expression.Just watch, I will bring Nanchao back to its heyday.

Nothing can stop me.

General Chu, you can also return to the court as a teacher.
