The appearance of the young master Baishu was completely beyond Chu Xi's expectations. She never expected that this person, whom she once regarded as an opponent, would become her helping hand at this moment.

Yes, the son Baishu was Chu Xi's helping hand. His appearance was beyond everyone's expectations. The only person who was not surprised by this was Zhuge Jing who was watching the battle at the top of the city.

When Bai Shu appeared in front of Zhuge Jing with an old book two years ago after being dismissed from the Ling Kingdom, he knew that that person would come back one day.

This was a war without any suspense. When Xiao Liuyan decided to pursue Ouyang Mingyue who was retreating all the way, he had already laid the foundation for failure. Princess Yonghui of Nanchu rose again in this war. Maybe it was accidental, maybe It is inevitable, but in any case, for Nanchu who has lost the royal city and experienced the three kings, her appearance at this critical moment has played a very important role. Those who surrendered under Beiqi's iron heels gathered together and established a new Southern Chu Kingdom amidst the ashes.

In this new Southern Chu Kingdom, the new king is still young and has not resolved the affairs of the world. Both the military and political powers have fallen into the hands of Princess Yonghui. After discussions between the ministers of the court and the central government, Princess Yonghui was changed to Princess Zhenguo.

Returning from blood and re-emerging, Princess Chu Huaijin changed her past benevolence and indecision, and used iron and blood to forcefully subdue the troops left by Wuhou Ouyang Mingyue. The 50 cavalry from Northern Qi were all buried in the mountains and rivers of Southern Chu, and then led an army to attack and conquer the lost land.

So far, Chu Huaijin, the princess of Nanchu Zhenguo, has become famous all over the world.

However, what no one expected was that Princess Zhen Guo did not go to the palace immediately after regaining the royal city, but climbed to the top floor of the Hero Hongyan Building, silently drinking sake, and silently looking at the distance, and then the distance... …

Such eyes seem to have crossed thousands of mountains and waded through thousands of rivers,

From this side of Kyushu, I can see the other side of the world at a glance...

The moonlit night is cool, and the wine is heartbreaking.

When longing becomes a monument drunk, who is still watching?

The young master Baishu came at night, and heard the Zhenguo princess who now has power over Southern Chu, murmured with tears in her eyes: "I have searched for you in the vast sea of ​​people, but I haven't found you for five years. No wonder you always like Call me an idiot, then... how about you come to find me in the future? I will stand at the highest place in this world, waiting for you to come back..."

Where is the highest point in this world?How tall is it?

Bai Shu looked in the direction of the Southern Chu Palace, and suddenly remembered the names buried in the dust of history, and sighed softly, "Why bother?"

"Why bother?" Chu Xi suddenly threw down his wine glass, and asked with a flick of his sleeves, "Your majestic son Bai Shu, why bother to come to Nanchu?"

"Because I lost to her, so I'm here."

"You lost to her?"

"Yes, I lost to her." Bai Shu poured himself a drink, swallowed the wine, and said slowly: "After you and I made an appointment to fight in the Yangquan Plain, King Ling met a man from Dongning on his way back home. Girl, this girl is extremely beautiful and her song is unsurpassed in the world, she is very pleased with King Ling."

"At that time, as Wang Zuo, I was worried about political affairs, and I didn't take care of these trivial matters in the harem of the Mausoleum King. Until later, when I went to the palace at night to discuss matters, and when I returned late, I had no intention of meeting this woman in the palace, but I didn't. It is expected that this will cause gossip..."

"When the King of Ling heard about this, he was furious and exiled me from the Kingdom of Ling...I didn't know until later that the woman came to me, that she was actually one of the three best singers—Dong Ning He Cailian..."

Since ancient times, the most complicated and cruel battles have almost always been related to the court, but Young Master Bai Shu has brought it up so lightly, obviously he didn't want to talk about the situation at that time, but even though he said it very simply, Chu Xi still felt that It was thrilling at the time.

However, what made her feel even more ups and downs was that after five years, she finally heard the news about her...

Even if it was just these old things from the past, Chu Xi still listened intently, and even held his breath, afraid of the slightest strange noise, so he interrupted the memory of young master Baishu, and interrupted his hard-won moment Think about it.

——Even if it's just from other people's mouths, hearing such bits and pieces of her past, people can't help but have extravagant expectations.

"He Cailian sent me a letter, asking me to go to Nanchu to find Zhuge Jing. At that time, Zhuge Jing had already surrendered to Ouyang Mingyue's tent. I thought I would be blocked, and I secretly thought that since Ouyang Mingyue Targeting you, I will definitely be shut out and driven out of Nanchu, so I will settle one thing..."

"But I don't want to, Ouyang Mingyue just took one look at me and arranged for me to go to Xifeng City..."

west wind city

That was the first place where Chu Xi really took power after leaving the fief. The 20 troops stationed there were also the first force she really controlled, but Ouyang Mingyue abolished her position Afterwards, not only did he accept Zhuge Jing's surrender, but he also arranged for the young master Bai Shu to go to West Wind City——Ouyang Mingyue... What exactly is he trying to do?

Chu Xi didn't want to understand it all the time, and neither did Young Master Bai Shu, but Chu Xi vaguely felt that if she could solve this mystery, she might be able to find clues to A Xue.

Almost without any hesitation, Chu Xi flew towards Ouyang Mingyue's old house, and saw Zhuge Jing there without any surprise.

"Where is she? Where is the military division?"

Chu Xi's voice was trembling because of excitement or urgency, but Zhuge Jing didn't speak, just bent down and saluted, as if he had expected it, and led Chu Xi through the lobby and veranda to the backyard. In a side room, a dark room was opened.

For a moment, Chu Xi felt that if she took a step forward, she would definitely be able to meet the person she had been thinking about day and night.

But, in fact, when she stepped into the dark room, all she saw were portraits—a room full of portraits.

The portraits are all of the same woman - a woman who is almost seven points similar to Chu Xi.

Smiling, distressed, angry...

young, mature...

not old

Because the woman in the last painting is still very young, but her face is full of sadness and despair, as if the time and years of her life have been frozen in this moment.

"Back then, the late king and successively swam in the Tianzai River together, but unfortunately both drowned and died, leaving behind the precarious Nanchu Mountains and Rivers..."

"So, from then on, what Nanchu needs is not a princess who can be carefree, live with laughter, and choose whoever she likes at will."

Zhuge Jing stood behind Chu Xi, and said slowly and heavily: "What Southern Chu needs is a monarch who can straddle a horse and guard the frontier, and who can secure the world with a pen."

When Zhuge Jing said this, there was also a person in the distant Dongning Palace, who was saying something very similar: "Although Beiqi suffered a big loss in Southern Chu, there is a heroic king in power. , the foundation has not been damaged, and within ten years, it will inevitably rise again."

"Although the little king of Southern Chu is still young, there is a world-renowned Zhen Guo Princess who is in charge of the power, and he is assisted by Wang Zuo such as Bai Shu. It is not difficult to rise up."

"The ruling and opposition parties in Western Shu are all ambitious people. After Northern Qi and Southern Chu were weak, they have become the number one country in the world today."

"It's ridiculous that the king of Ling, but because of his concubine's slander, he expelled Wang Zuo Baishu for nothing. He is really stupid. Thinking about it, the fat meat of Ling Kingdom will fall into the hands of Xishu sooner or later..."

"In such a world of great contention, we are born as human beings, and we should straddle the horses and expand the frontiers, and take up the pen to secure the world... My emperor is good, but he only knows how to paint the green mountains, green waters and long rivers with ink. Does he think that, The thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in Dongning, can’t they be painted?”

In Chang'an Palace in Dongning, a young woman held a long sword in her hand, and the sword was shining brightly, cutting the practice stake like a sword mark, but she was still puzzled, she turned her head and asked the servant behind her, "What did he do today?"

"Return to the master." Apparently this is not the first time the young servant has faced this situation, and he immediately explained in detail: "Your Majesty went to Concubine Mei's place today, and stayed there to discuss the new situation with Concubine Mei before half a stick of incense. "The Picture of Winter Plum Blossom and Aoxue"."

"Is there any arrangement to submit the ministers' memorials? Has he read them carefully?... Forget it, you can go now."

The young woman turned her wrist lightly, and the long sword flew out, drawing an arc, and threw it into the scabbard held in the arms of the servant. With a long sigh, she walked into the palace with some disappointment.

The palace is spacious and empty, obviously very luxurious, but it makes the young woman alone.

With her clothes off, she walked slowly in this empty palace, listening to her lonely footsteps quietly, step by step, accompanied by the lonely echo, she came to the corner of the west wall, and skillfully rummaged to find a Roll drawing paper.

The drawing paper had turned yellow and was wrinkled terribly, as if it had been rubbed vigorously before unfolding, and no matter how hard you tried to flatten it, it still couldn't remove the traces.

Unfolding the picture scroll, the woman looked at it for a long time, feeling a little tired, and asked helplessly, "I am Jun Xizhu, but who are you?"

She is Xizhu, the lord of a small county in Pingbei, and now she is the concubine of the new emperor of Dongning, living in Chang'an Palace.

In the painting is a young woman with a white horse and a silver gun. She is very heroic. Jun Xizhu feels that she is very familiar and thinks that she should have seen this person, but all the people around—whether they are relatives or maids, tell her, She has never seen this person, and said that this person may not exist in the world.

Five years ago, when she woke up from the darkness, the relatives and maids who saw her for the first time said that she fell ill and lost her memory before that. The marriage contract, even the parents of his own close relatives don't know each other.

So, how could she know such a heroic woman?

Jun Xizhu always felt very strange and puzzled.She has always wondered why five years ago, on the first day after the wedding, when Nangong Yu happily said that she would teach her how to draw, she would draw this woman without hesitation.

Without the slightest hesitation or pause, it seems as if I have drawn thousands of times...

Relatives and maids all said that she didn't know how to paint. At that time, her newlywed husband, Nangong Yu, who was still a prince, volunteered to teach her, saying that he wanted to be a wonderful couple...

Why, she, who obviously doesn't know how to paint, can draw this woman she has never seen so vividly?

Why, when Nangong Yu, who was clearly in high spirits at the time, saw the woman in her painting, his complexion changed drastically, and he was furious, marrying one woman after another, as if he had completely forgotten about her, the wife that the medium was marrying...

Why, every time I see this woman, I feel tears welling up in my eyes?

...What did I forget?
