In love with the ghost king

I didn't understand the meaning of the princess's words at the time, but she immediately said: "I'm sorry for you, but please take Yunjing away."

As she said that, she took advantage of Young Master Chu to drag General Meng outside, opened a tunnel for me, and asked me to take Young Master Chu away. The princess said, "Go to the southern country, and when you arrive in the southern country, tell me that Princess Changning sent you."

She also gave me a jade pendant as a token.

Seeing that Mr. Chu couldn't stop General Meng, I knew the situation was urgent, so I swore to the princess that I would protect young Mr. Chu.

After hearing this, the princess thanked her and went out.

Faintly, I heard the princess say to General Meng: "I am the princess of the Southern Kingdom, and I lied to Chu Yu."

This sentence can explain everything. I was afraid that General Meng's people would find out the authenticity, so I didn't dare to delay any longer and fled the Chu residence with Young Master Chu.

After escaping, I went to a relative's house, but no one knew about it. Later I heard that Mr. Chu married a princess from the southern kingdom, and told her all about Chu's government affairs.Thanks to General Meng's timely discovery, this prevented a major mistake.

It is said that Mr. Chu had known for a long time that his wife was the princess of the Southern Kingdom, and he had been concealing the truth, so the king was very angry and ordered the whole city to search for Mr. Chu.

These two people should be executed for their crimes. I am afraid that there will be no Mr. Chu to protect them in the Northern Kingdom.

After hearing this, I felt very uncomfortable when I looked at the young master Chu who was crying and looking for his parents.In the past few years I lived in the Chu Mansion, Mr. Chu and the princess never mentioned the affairs of the government, and the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason was even more unfounded.

On the day of the execution, I went to see it. The ruler of the country used to hate people who betrayed the country, so he ordered the heads of the son and princess to be hung above the city gate as a warning to everyone else.

I originally wanted to take Young Master Chu out of the city secretly, but who knows, that day I disguised Young Master Chu and pretended to be my own child, so that others would no longer recognize him, and at the same time covered him with a mask. His eyes prevented him from seeing the head at the city gate.

But when I walked to the gate of the city, the blindfolded cloth suddenly fell off, and I felt the hand of the child in my hand tremble slightly. At that time, the inspecting soldier was beside me. Just hold my hand tightly.

After leaving the city gate, he walked another distance, and when he reached a place where no one was around, he suddenly cried bitterly, and the tears couldn't stop falling down.

I hurriedly coaxed him, and he lay on top of me, sobbing and said: "Father and Aunt will not collude with the enemy and treason, they were wronged."

I was stunned at the time, thinking that I hid it well in front of Young Master Chu and would not let her know about the young master and the princess, but who knows, Young Master Chu already knew about it.

"The enmity of the country, how can they be involved..." Young Master Chu cried, "Father is dedicated to the country, and mother is dedicated to father. They are not wrong."

I don't read many books, but the words of young master Chu really shocked me, so that I don't know what words to use to comfort the child in front of me. He is only six years old, and he will see the heads of his biological parents hanging above the city wall. superior.

Young Master Chu lay on my shoulder, weeping slowly, when he had finished crying, he wiped away his tears and said, "Daddy said, don't cry easily, I won't cry anymore... But I still feel very uncomfortable... ..."

Before I could speak, Young Master Chu was probably tired from crying, he was stunned for a while, and then said softly: "Don't cry, I will be back."

I was slightly taken aback, and said, "What are you doing back here?"

Young Master Chu clenched his hands tightly and said, "I'm coming back, Yu. Yan. Tell them, Father and Mother are not wrong."

Although I was shocked by the look on the face of being a young son, I didn't take it to heart, I just thought it was because the child was too sad and was stimulated too much at the moment, so he was just joking.

I brought him to the southern country, and only then did I know that the jade pendant given to me by the princess contained a map to the southern imperial city.I have often heard that the two countries of the North and the South have been at war, the North advocates force, and the South advocates the rule of law, but it still cannot be captured because of the terrain of the South.

If you want to start from the North Country and go to the South Country, you must go through a labyrinthine journey.Therefore, the Southern Kingdom made the Northern Kingdom's army retreat steadily in this perilous jungle and mountains.

Only members of the southern royal family have such a map.

I got this news from Young Master Chu. It turned out that the princess had told Young Master Chu her identity long ago, and also told him the secret of the map of the Southern Kingdom.

I am very fortunate that the princess is willing to trust me-even if it may just be a medical treatment due to illness.

The ruler of the Southern Kingdom is the princess' elder brother, and he loves his younger sister very much. Although he has a grudge against Young Master Chu's blood from the Northern Kingdom, he still doesn't say anything and raises him as his own son.

Only at this time did I feel that the way of governing the country in the South is much better than the pure force in the North. The ruler of the country did not mind my status as a slave in the North, but still let me stay with Young Master Chu.

As the young master Chu grew up, I realized that he is really very similar to the young master Chu Yu, except that the young master Chu Yu is as gentle as jade, and treats others with humility and courtesy.

As for Young Master Chu, his alienation is engraved in his bones and superficial.The way he looks at people is always with an inexplicable indifference, which makes people shudder.However, he sometimes puts forward some opinions on state affairs in the court, and the king appreciates him very much.

From him, I seem to see the shadow of Mr. Chu Yu. Mr. Chu Yu became the prime minister of the northern kingdom at a young age, while Mr. Chu became the prince of the southern kingdom at a young age.

Others often say that he only got the position of prince by borrowing the favor of the king for his sister.But I know, it's not like this, relying on Young Master Chu's own talent and his own efforts, it's totally possible.

I originally thought that I would live up to the princess's trust and entrustment in my life, and I could watch Young Master Chu grow up in the southern country with peace of mind, and watch him dedicate himself to the southern country until he died.Maybe in the future, I will be famous and famous forever, and I will live my life like this, and I will not waste this trip.

But who knows that one day, Young Master Chu was sitting at the desk. He was writing documents, put down the pen in his hand, suddenly raised his head, looked at me for a long time, and then said to me: "Uncle Zhou, should I gone back?"

I was stunned at the time, not understanding the meaning of his words.Young Master Chu seems to have not called me "Uncle Zhou" for a long time.

At that time, there was something unspeakable in Young Master Chu's eyes. Although he still had the look of rejecting people thousands of miles away, his voice was trembling, and his calm and composed look was like a different person.

He said it to me again: "Uncle Zhou, I think...it's time for me to go back to the Northland."
