Fate is easy to tie, not easy to solve

It is said that Zhao Xiangji, the crown prince of Zhao State, arrived in Chu State in a few days, and Chu Xiaotian, who was recuperating in the Huguo Temple, sent a message that the crown prince of Zhao State was no match for other princes, and he must be received grandly.Here, the Chu Palace was busy arranging for the welcoming ceremony, and it was very lively for a while.On the contrary, the scenery in Miaojiang is much deserted.

The nightmare is entangled, thinking about the return date.

Chu Yu woke up from the dream, his clothes were drenched in cold sweat, and his heartbeat was irregular.Xiao Yunzi heard the movement and put on her clothes and came over, "Master, is it a nightmare again? What happened in the dream, tell the servant, maybe it will be better." This is not just the case, and there has been almost no peaceful night in this month.

With a pale face, Chu Yu stared at a certain place in a daze.Suddenly grabbed Xiao Yunzi's hand, tremblingly, "Pack up your things and go back to the palace tomorrow!"

Xiao Yunzi frowned, the hand holding him was wet and cold, trembling slightly non-stop.

"Young master, what's wrong with you? I don't know what you dreamed about. But if you say that you can't go back to death now! How can you bear the fatigue of your body! It's too late to go back, stay for more days It doesn't matter if you come back again, your body is important!"

Chu Yu shook off his hand and was about to get out of bed as he spoke.The wheelchair used in daily life was not next to the bed, and he fell heavily to the ground without relying on Chu Yu.Xiao Yunzi exclaimed, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, Chu Yu seemed to be talking to himself, Xiao Yunzi listened carefully and found out that he said: It's time to go back, what should he do if he gets angry.

Xiao Yunzi knew who he was talking about, and that person had always been the disease in his heart.If you are uneasy, why bother!

Put Chu Yu back on the bed and covered her with the quilt. "Young master rest assured, it's serious. He may not be happy if he returns to the palace in such a state. Tomorrow I will go and tell us to go back early. Now you can rest assured."

Chu Yu was quiet after hearing his words.He looked sideways at the bed, tender and loving under the dim light.

In the blue light of the day, beside the mountain stream, a group of people and horses are marching towards the imperial city of Chu State.On the emblem flag of the team was embroidered with big characters of Zhao, and the tall carriage in the team must be the prince of Zhao Guo.In the carriage, besides Prince Zhao, there was also a man dressed as a soldier, with jet-black armor and a dull face, with a sense of righteousness.

"This prince of Chu, I heard that he is quite famous." It was Zhao Xiangji who spoke.

The armored man at the side said, "Chu Hong, the Crown Prince of Chu, is the one who wiped out the Wu family army six years ago."

Zhao Xiangji said: "It turned out to be him. I've heard of that battle. It must not be an ordinary person who can destroy Wu Changsheng's family. You didn't go to check the results of the battle at the order of your father, how about it?"

The man in the armor fell into deep thought, and it took him a long time to utter a sentence, "Blood flows into rivers, and corpses pile up into mountains. Remnants of limbs and arms are not complete. Yajiu dare not eat carrion corpses, and no grass will grow where the blood flows!"

Zhao Xiangji looked at him, his face was gloomy, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.It wasn't until the guards in front came forward to report that they had arrived at the station that the silence between the two was broken.Zhao Xiangji smiled lightly, "Okay, I will enter the imperial city tomorrow, and we will naturally meet at that time. You will know whether it is a dragon or a ghost at the first sight."

He really wanted to meet the legendary God of War!

The armored man stared at the side with the knife in a daze, God of War, might as well say War Demon!

At noon, the traveling team of Prince Zhao entered the imperial city.At the gate of the palace, Chu Hong and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs greeted him.Zhao Xiangji got down from the carriage, wearing a purple python robe with dark text to show his different status.

As the host, the Crown Prince of Chu Kingdom naturally had to step forward. Chu Hong was wearing a golden court dress, with a forehead belt tied on his forehead just to cover up the red birthmark.

"It is a great honor for the people of Chu to welcome Prince Zhao and his entourage to our country."

Zhao Xiangji had seen the golden man in the crowd a long time ago, and thought to himself that he must be the prince of Chu.That all-over majesty is like the sun at noon, with a radiance that cannot be concealed.

"The crown prince of Chu State is too modest, and the two countries of Chu and Zhao have built a good marriage. Our country should have come to visit. It is really an honor for us to come to see your country's prosperity today."

Both of them spoke Mandarin and were humble and courteous to each other.

As an accompanying team, you must also salute to the visiting country, after the princes of the two countries exchanged quarrels.Zhao Guo's entourage knelt down, "The envoy of Zhao Guo came to salute and greet the prince of Chu Guo."

Chu Hong raised her hand, "Everyone, be at peace."

The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of Chu State knelt down, "The courtiers of Chu State welcome the visit of Prince Zhao State."

Zhao Xiangji raised his hand, "All of you are at peace."

The gift of meeting for the first time is regarded as fulfilled. Entering the palace, the palace has already prepared a delicious banquet, and only waits for the distinguished guests to take their seats.According to etiquette, concubines are not allowed to attend such a banquet, but Zhao Liangdi is a native of Zhao country, so naturally she has to attend the banquet together.

Zhao Liangdi entered the banquet, Prince Zhao stood up.

"Brother Emperor!"

"Emperor Sister!" The two wept regardless of everyone embracing each other. The envoy of Zhao Guolai spread his sleeves and wiped away his tears. It was a warm scene, and Chu Hong was smiling on the opposite side.

After a long time, the two separated, and the Prince of Zhao apologized, "I haven't seen Lady Liangdi for a long time, and I couldn't help but break the etiquette for a while, I hope the Prince will forgive me."

Chu Hong: "It's okay, Zhao Liangdi will miss her relatives in her home country after not seeing her for a long time. Come to the table." As she spoke, everyone toasted.Zhao Guo's crown prince returned to the banquet, Zhao Liangdi naturally wanted to sit in Chu's seat.I saw her gently waving her sleeves, revealing her slightly protruding abdomen, Zhao Guolai may not have seen it.

During the banquet singing and dancing, the young dancer's waist is soft and her smile is like a flower.

Halfway through the banquet, it was time to present the intention.Prince Zhao had something to say, and the singing and dancing retreated.

"This visit from our country is due to the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of your country was not able to come in person on his birthday a few days ago."

Chu Hong: "It's important to say, the gift from your country is very precious, and besides, it's my honor to come here, so there's no point of disrespect."

Prince Zhao said again: "Secondly, His Majesty is very happy to hear that Liangdi is pregnant. He has specially prepared a special gift to congratulate you."

He had been paying attention to this general Chu Hong for a long time. He was wearing black armor, so he couldn't tell the grade, but everyone accompanying him was respectful and careful, even the crown prince.Although it is deliberately made natural, the class divisions formed in the past are not easy to hide safely.

Inside the brocade box is a platform made of emerald, bordered with purple gold, and a rare water lotus carved from transparent crystal.As big as a palm, if the evergreen tree carved by the Shangguan family is precious, then this one is really expensive.

"Thank you for giving such a precious gift to your country. Since it is Zhao Liangdi's contribution, I will give it to Zhao Liangdi. Does your country mind?"

Prince Zhao laughed and said, "Since it is given to the prince, it is naturally up to the prince to decide."

The general presented the brocade box to Zhao Liangdi, and the young eunuch respectfully took it over.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness." She obviously liked it very much.

The general turned around and walked back, Chu Hong looked at him, and the two wanted to meet their eyes.The banquet continued, and the night was heavy with dew, Zhao Liangdi could not accompany her for a long time and had already left.

In the Crown Princess Palace, although Ban Yulan is in better health, she is still weak.The sound of singing and dancing came from a distance, and the lights of the banquet were dimmed, making the night sky colorful.

"Today, the Zhao Guolai envoy arrived?"

Caiyue put on her clothes, "Yes, the palace is very lively. His Majesty is not here, and everything is arranged by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Speaking of the crown prince, Ban Yulan's face was a little red, thinking of something, her complexion turned bad again, and she coughed again.

"Miss, you're coughing again. It's cold at night, so go in and lie down on the bed. It'll be better. What should you do if you catch a cold?"

Ban Yulan was also helped in by her, and leaned against the head of the bed to tuck in the quilt. "People from Zhao Guo must have heard the news of pregnancy."

Caiyue was worried that if she kept thinking about this matter, she would be in a bad mood, and when would she recover from her illness.So he broke the conversation, took out the mahogany box and opened it, "Miss, look, the glutinous rice cakes that the master asked someone to bring in yesterday are what you often eat in the mansion. You must have known that you were sick and your appetite was poor, so you ordered someone Ready to deliver."

Opening her mouth, Caiyue sucked a piece for her.It's full of sweetness, isn't that the taste?Thinking of how free and joyful I was in the mansion in the past, just like the taste in my mouth, the uncomfortable part is also better.

"Didn't Mama Zhang go back to her hometown in the mansion, is there anyone who would pledge this pastry?"

Caiyue put away the box carefully, although it is good, it is easy to get tired, and it is not easy to digest if you eat too much. "Isn't that right? The master must have come to her home to ask her to do it. I don't know anyone in the imperial city who has this skill."

Ban Yulan, "That's not close."

Caiyue took out two small boxes again, and opened them, "That's right, the master took a lot of effort. In the future, Miss can no longer say that the master doesn't love you. The slaves have come to the mansion to serve you since they were young. Whether the master loves you and the young master doesn't matter." You know. It’s just that he’s getting older these years, and he’s not thought through many things, and he’s also worried about how you and your son will be in a hundred years, so he must be impatient. Look, these are precious medicinal materials sent by the mansion.”

Ban Yulan thought about it carefully, and it was true.Her father has been a little impatient in doing things these years. If she herself has no children to rely on in the palace, what will happen to her life in the future.In the mansion, Xin Yu didn't make progress, he only knew how to eat, drink and play all day long, and he didn't know what to do in the future.Her father had given her all the glory of the family, and now that she thought about it, it was her own fault to be angry with him that day.

Caiyue brings her tea to rinse her mouth, sweets are the worst for teeth, so don't be sloppy. "Okay, now you can take a good rest, the most important thing is to nourish your energy."

Late at night, the thoughtful heart should be quiet.

On the other side, Huguo Temple.Chu Xiaotian sat and drank tea with Kong in the meditation room.

Chu Xiaotian looked at the opposite side and lost his mind, he couldn't help laughing. "Why is the elder so frequently in ecstasy today? The six faculties of the monks are pure, so there shouldn't be a source of trouble, right?"

Kongheshi, Amitabha, "I'm sorry, I think it's because the candlelight is too dazzling."

Chu Xiaotian poured tea for both of them, "That's right, the elder has never had the habit of lighting a lamp at night, so I'll turn it off right now."

Liao Kong stopped him and said, "No need, Your Majesty, the poor monk has to go back to the meditation room in the middle of the night."

Before leaving the Zen room, Liao Kong said something, "Your Majesty, do you really think this should be done?"

Chu Xiaotian sat with his back on his back, couldn't see his expression, only heard him haha, "What happened to the elder today, the fate is like this, you should know better than me!"

Liaokong didn't speak, he opened the door and went out.The night at the foot of the mountain was heavy, and there was a faint red light in the direction of the palace.Pausing for a while, the silent night sighed.

Is destiny so...
