In love with the ghost king

I didn't understand the meaning of his words at the time, so I just looked at him blankly, but when Young Master Chu said it, his tone was firm, just like the six-year-old child I took him to escape.He said, to go back.

I'm afraid that he will really go back like this, because in the Northern Kingdom, if someone finds out, he will definitely die without a place to bury him.I was very worried, so I tried to dissuade him, but Young Master Chu said to me instead: "Uncle Zhou, I can go by myself, no one in the northern kingdom knows me, you may be in danger if you go."

Knowing that Young Master Chu has a stubborn temper, I pretended to agree, but I wanted to follow quietly that day without being noticed by him.

Young Master Chu said that, and the next day he went to court to ask for this matter.

I will always remember that day, young master Chu, dressed in white, stood on top of the main hall, neither humble nor overbearing, and gave a deep salute to the ruler of the southern kingdom, and then said: "The two countries have been at war for a long time, and the lives of the people are miserable. Going on like this is not a long-term solution. Although Yun Jing is not talented, he still thinks about living in his lifetime, so it can be seen that the two countries have a good relationship, so I implore the king to allow Yun Jing to go to the north country and persuade the king of the north country."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. First, there was a low laughter from the court hall, and then the laughter became louder and louder, filling the entire palace until it reached a state of presumptuousness.

Young Master Chu ignored them, and just stared intently at the king above the court. The latter didn't show any expression, and just quietly looked at the laughing crowd below.

After a long time, the laughter gradually subsided, and Young Master Chu said it again. It was still a clean voice, echoing in the court hall, very serious. This time, there was silence.

The king still didn't answer him.

Young Master Chu suddenly knelt down on the ground. He paused, folded his hands in front of his chest, and stated his thoughts aloud recently. The northern kingdom advocates the rule of the country by force, while the southern kingdom advocates the rule of the country. If it is not for the right time and place, it may be difficult to resist the enemy. attack.

He explained the interests of the North and the South one by one, and the civil and military officials were convinced by what he said. Suddenly, there was no voice of opposition in the court.

It wasn't until this moment that the ruler above the court opened his mouth leisurely, as if he said casually: "How sure are you to convince the ruler of the Northern Kingdom? Don't forget that your father was the prime minister of the Northern Kingdom. In the face of the eldest princess, how can you return to this southern country?"

Hearing this, Young Master Chu's face turned pale, his eyes flickered, then quickly closed down, and he said neither humble nor overbearing: "Father's death, although the court of the Northern Kingdom was incompetent, the root cause is still the war between the North and the South. "

"If you can't convince the Lord of the Northern Kingdom, I will commit suicide and apologize, and never return to the Southern Kingdom." After finishing speaking, the young master Chu knocked down heavily.

I was hiding behind the main hall, watching all this, I felt very sad, I understand what the young master is thinking, Mr. Chu Yu has always hoped that the disputes between the North and the South can be resolved, and he has been persuading the monarchs of the North to also pay attention to martial arts.

Young Master Chu's visit this time is not only to avenge his parents, but I guess he wants to fulfill his father's unfulfilled long-cherished wish, to make the world peaceful and the mountains and rivers peaceful.

It's just that I didn't expect that he, who was only a six-year-old child at the time, could remember it so clearly... And what he said about never going back to the Southland was probably thinking that if he couldn't persuade him successfully, he would never go back to the Southland again. necessary.

Although the civil and military officials were convinced of what Young Master Chu said, they still felt that the king would not agree to such an absurd request.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the lord looked at the young master Chu who was kneeling on the ground, walked down from above, and then helped him up. Under the astonished eyes of the young master Chu, the lord said: "I agree. .”

The tone is flat, making people unable to see any emotion.

The crowd was astonished.

However, Young Master Chu quickly recovered his expression, and just said according to the usual etiquette: "Thank you, my lord."

I only found out later that for today's matter, Young Master Chu had been sidelining the lord three years ago, always making suggestions, and the request from the court was just for Young Master Chu to persuade all civil and military officials.

At that moment, I realized that Young Master Chu had been planning this matter for a long time. I was amazed at his thoughtfulness, and also amazed that he really had such talent to persuade the king.

After that incident, Young Master Chu began to pack his bags and head for the North Kingdom.

The night before the departure, Young Master Chu stayed up all night. I wanted to stay with him, but he asked me to sleep first. I refused, but he kept insisting. I was worried that if we continued to argue like this, it would inevitably arouse his suspicion. , So pretend to agree.

But... I never imagined that when I woke up the next day, it was already noon. I blamed myself, I clearly said I would not sleep, but I never lay down, and my eyelids felt like a heavy weight. , also irreversible.

The way out of the southern country is extremely complicated. If there is no map, it is absolutely impossible to get out. However, only members of the royal family know the map. As a servant, I naturally have no way of knowing it.

Back then, it was a blessing that the eldest princess Yupei walked in without incident. When Young Master Chu grew up, I gave the jade pendant to him. In this way... there is no other way.

I can only get news about Young Master Chu from the few words of others every day.

To tell the truth, since the two countries are enemies, the ruler of the southern kingdom has naturally planted an eyeliner in the northern kingdom, but he dare not go deep into the royal family of the northern kingdom, for fear of arousing suspicion, but if something important happens in the northern kingdom, there will be pigeons flying to report it.

This is the only way for me to know about Young Master Chu.

One day two years later, I saw the king was furious, but I didn't dare to go forward, so I could only sneak in by the side, pretending to bring tea and water.

If it's something else, I don't bother to deal with it, but I vaguely heard the word "Chu Yunjing", and I was startled. Could it be that Young Master Chu failed.

But when I wanted to listen carefully, the king saw that someone was coming, so he stopped talking.

However, this matter did not know who leaked out, and soon, it became a hot topic.

They said that Young Master Chu was in the North Kingdom and married a man, Meng Shen, the son of General Meng, His Royal Highness King Huai of the North Kingdom.

When I heard this, I thought they must be talking nonsense, not to mention the absurdity of marrying a man. Young Master Chu knew that General Meng and Young Master Chu Yu were at odds, so how could he do such a thing... …

However, what they said was clear and discerning. They said that on the day of the two people's wedding, the whole northern kingdom would be decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the whole country would celebrate.
