Chapter 320 Cross the river and demolish the bridge
On this trip to Chu State, Yan Ruo asked to go with him.

Gu Yunjie did not refuse.Yan Ruo's medical skills are superb. With her here, the poison on Chu Chu's body may be cured quickly.

Three days later, Gu Yunjie and the others got ready and set off.

Gu Lanshi's eyes were full of reluctance: "If you are not familiar with the place there, keep a low profile. Safety is the most important thing, do you know?"

The old lady's eyes were red. She knew that it was useless to persuade her to stay, so she gave more instructions.

"Nai, don't worry. I still remember your birthday. Chuchu and I will come back early to celebrate your birthday."

"Don't lie to me, this old lady, I'll be waiting for you at home."

"It's fine at home."

As the carriage set out on the road, Xiaojie felt a little uncomfortable as she looked at the crowd getting further and further away.

Maybe she already has a attachment to this world.

"The fact that Chu Chu is from the Chu Kingdom was told to the emperor by the previous five princes. Their emperor talked to the emperor, which made the emperor suspicious. The emperor did not dare to show it in front of me, but he still asked to find out about Chu Chu. Life experience. Mom, there will be many things going on when we go." On the way, Gu Yunjie told Yan Ruo the truth.

Yan Ruo has never experienced anything, so this is nothing: "The second prince and the fifth prince are using the emperor's hand to lead you to the Chu Kingdom. When you arrive in the Chu Kingdom, they will not tell you who Chu Chu is. Calculate."

Gu Yunjie chuckled: "Mom, maybe you guessed it right. Chu Chu might be one of the princes among them."

"I have heard some things about the Chu royal family. I heard that when the Chu Emperor ascended the throne, he married the daughter of the then Chief Assistant. Five years after he ascended the throne, the Chu Emperor said that the Chief Assistant had colluded with other countries. Chu The emperor ordered the house of the chief minister to be confiscated, and the queen at that time was thrown into the cold palace because she interceded for her father.

When they were thrown into the cold palace, the queen and Emperor Chu's legitimate son were also thrown into the cold palace together.One year after Queen Chu entered the cold palace, a fire broke out in the cold palace, and the Queen Chu and her legitimate son were buried in the sea of ​​​​fire. "

"It's such a pity that the queen and the legitimate son of the middle palace died like this." Gu Yunjie sighed, and she looked at Chu Chu: "Chu Chu, have you heard the story of this Queen Chu?"

"I've heard some. When the Emperor of Chu was still a prince, he was engaged to the Liu family. For the sake of their daughter, the Liu family could be said to have supported him to rise to power. With the help of the Liu family, the Emperor of Chu got his wish and ascended the throne. The Emperor of Chu also He kept his promise and married the daughter of the Liu family as his queen.

Emperor Chu is the only daughter of Prime Minister Liu, and the apple of his eye.The person in Emperor Chu's heart was not Liu Ruyi, but a girl named Qingcheng.This Qingcheng girl saved him when he was young and was kind to him, and the two of them secretly fell in love with each other.But he needs help to ascend the throne, and the Liu family is his help.

When the Liu family lady asked the emperor for marriage, although he didn't agree in his heart, he still agreed after weighing it.Because of the marriage, the two families were tied together.After the Qingcheng girl learned that he was engaged, she left her hometown and was killed by a thief.

The Emperor of Chu has always been worried about the death of the Qingcheng girl.Later it was discovered that all this was caused by the Liu family.

It was the Liu family who killed his sweetheart. If Liu Ruyi hadn't suddenly forced her to marry him, if it hadn't been for the Liu family's intervention, Qingcheng would not have died.

But for the sake of his throne, he has been waiting for the right time to avenge the girl named Qingcheng.The opportunity finally came. The He family found a letter from nowhere, saying that the Liu family had colluded with Da'an and that the Liu family was suspected of treason.The Emperor of Chu was probably waiting for this opportunity. When the He family handed over the evidence, the Emperor of Chu ordered the Liu family's home to be raided. The Queen of Chu was angry because she defended and pleaded for her father and ordered her to be thrown into the cold palace.

Yan Ruo was a little surprised after hearing what Chu Chu said: "Xiao Chu, you know a lot about the affairs of the Chu royal family. I have never heard of these things. I only know that the Liu family was engaged to the Emperor of Chu, and the marriage was indeed It was the Miss Liu family who proposed it first, but from beginning to end, Emperor Chu never refused. I was still thinking whether the two of them fell in love with each other, so Miss Liu family took the initiative to propose, and it turned out that there were all these things in between."

Miss Ruyi of the Liu family is the only daughter of Prime Minister Liu and the apple of his eye.Despite this, she is not coquettish and unreasonable. On the contrary, she is knowledgeable, courteous, gentle and elegant.Why did she take the initiative to propose marriage? She must have really liked Emperor Chu.If she really likes him, which woman would take the initiative to marry a man she doesn't like.

These things are secret affairs of the Chu royal family and cannot be found out by ordinary people.

It's really strange that Chu Chu knows so clearly.

Chu Chu laughed, with sadness in her eyes: "Mom, that Miss Liu is my mother. Of course, I know everything about her."

Yan Ruojing's mouth couldn't close.

So, Chuchu, he is....

Hearing this, Yan Ruo didn't speak anymore, but just sighed: "Back then, Emperor Chu had someone in his heart, and when your mother took the initiative to ask the emperor to give him the emperor, why didn't he refuse? While he enjoyed the road paved by the Liu family for him, he despised the Liu family for harming him. His sweetheart died. As far as I know, if it weren’t for Prime Minister Liu’s power, the Emperor of Chu would never have been able to compete with the crown prince at that time.”

"People are like this. When he wanted the throne, he naturally understood that the Liu family was his best choice. When he sat in that position, he missed the woman he loved when he was young and thought about the cause of her death. He He didn't dare to face himself, so he blamed everything on the Liu family, saying that the Liu family killed that woman. Wasn't he the one who killed his sweetheart?" Gu Yunjie was very shameless towards Emperor Chu's actions.

You finish enjoying the resources given by others and then kick them away after using them. What’s wrong with your face?

A typical example of crossing a river and tearing down bridges.

"Then when you come back this time..." Yan Ruo has already felt that when Xiaojie and Chu Chu come back this time, it may not be as simple as finding an antidote.

"Mom, they are here, how can we not respond. My husband-in-law has suffered so many injustices, and this revenge must be avenged. There is also the He family, he is also one of the murderers of our Jin family."

When you come to Chu State this time, you don’t have to do too many things.

"Mom, when my revenge is avenged, I have to ask you to help arrange the marriage between Xiaojie and I. That day in Shangbao Village, Xiaojie and I got married and went through a clan ceremony, but the ceremony was too simple. , I want to give Xiaojie a glorious wedding."

"Okay, as long as we all come back safely, these are all trivial matters. What we have to face is the He family, the first family of the Chu family, and the royal family. Are you sure?" Chu Chu must have been dormant outside for so many years. Powerful.

How confident we are in dealing with the He family and the royal family is also unknown.

"If you decide to come back, you have to fight hard. You can't let your enemies go unpunished just because you're not sure." These words were said by Gu Yunjie.

Chu Chu seemed to see Yan Ruo's worry: "Mom, this matter is just my personal matter, and you should not be involved. No matter what, I will keep you and Xiaojie safe. As for myself, it depends on God’s will.”

He had indeed cultivated some forces over the years, but he was not sure how these forces would fare against the royal family.

If possible, he didn't want to involve Xiaojie.

Xiaojie is his daughter and his wife, and he just wants her to be safe.

"Don't say these depressing words. As a son of man, it is only natural that you avenge your mother. Your grandfather died unjustly, and your mother died unjustly. These things must be investigated clearly. You did nothing wrong. Although I am not in the situation of Chu State, I understand him very well, but I also lived in Chu Elementary School for a while, and I know that Liu Xiang is not that kind of person, and there must be a hidden reason behind his death."

Yan Ruo met Liu Xiang once, and he was an upright middle-aged man.

He only married one woman in his life. After his wife passed away, he never married a wife or took any concubines. He only had a daughter like Liu Ruyi.

A month later, the carriage arrived at the border of Da'an.

After passing the defense line, the opposite side is the State of Chu.

They travel disguised as businessmen.

Many of the soldiers guarding now are old General Jin's soldiers.

They stayed at the border for two days.

The current border general's surname is Ning, and he is also a member of the cavalry army.

In fact, the Cavalry Army is more than just a team.

This also includes some officers and soldiers in the military camp.Last time, the emperor helped the Jin family find out the real culprit behind the scenes and issued a criminal edict.She also intends to hand over the cavalry order.

The emperor did not take it back, he just said to leave it here for now.

The Jin family's case has just been settled, and it is somewhat inappropriate for him to take back the cavalry order now.

So the cavalry order is still in her hand.

The emperor may not have no intention of testing her when he sent her to Chu State this time.

Two days later, they left the border and entered the territory of Chu.

As soon as they entered the Chu Kingdom, their group was assassinated.Those people didn't attack very hard, they were probably just testing to see their true strength.

Unfortunately, Chu Chu suffered a stab wound on her shoulder blade and the bleeding continued, causing her old disease to relapse.

Of course it's not really hurt.

Those people who want to tempt others are not allowed to spread false news.

At this time, Chu Chu, who was too ill to get out of bed, was lying on the carriage, enjoying being fed by his wife.

"Now that we have entered the Chu Kingdom, the assassinations must not happen one after another." Gu Yunjie gave himself a grape and sat on the carriage a little bored.

This was the problem in ancient times. Wherever you wanted to go, most of the time was spent on the road.

This was in modern times. In more than a month, she returned from her world trip.

Modern times have modern benefits, and ancient times have ancient benefits.

Their destination is naturally the imperial city and capital of Chu State.

……

"Brother Second Emperor." The fifth prince strode into the second prince's study: "I just received news that the sick man named Chu is here."

"So many killers along the way have not killed him. This man does have some skills. Send someone to contact him to see who he is? Can he be used by us? If he cannot be used by us, leave him alone No one will be left alive."

"With his body, I think he would probably die without us doing anything."

"You are still too naive. Don't you think, if the two miracle doctors around him really died so easily, he would have died eight hundred times."

"Is there any movement over at the He family?"

"Not yet. They don't seem to care at all about Gu Yunjie and his party coming to the capital."

"It's just a female marquis with no real power. It's really not worth their trouble. However, that old fox of the He family has always acted in a secretive way, so we still have to be careful."

……

It was dusk when Gu Yunjie's carriage drove into the capital.

It snowed heavily in the capital a few days ago, and the roofs were covered with a layer of snow. When the sun shone, the golden light shone, which was very beautiful.

Because it was too cold, the streets were closed, and not many pedestrians were walking on the streets.

"It's so cold here." Gu Yunjie shuddered: "If I can see a heavy snowfall, I won't be afraid of the cold anymore."

"At the end of the year, there will definitely be another snowfall." After more than a month of walking, the New Year will be over in a few more days.

"Does your Chu country have any rules for celebrating the New Year?"

"I don't know. I haven't celebrated the New Year since I can remember." In those years, I lived among the dead and picked up bad food. At that time, I only had one thought, and that was to survive.

As for what the festival would be like, he didn't dare to think about it.

When he thinks about the festival, he will think of his mother.

She and her mother died in the fire during the Spring Festival.

He doesn't want to celebrate the New Year now. When he thinks about the New Year, he thinks of the raging fire that night and his mother's desperate voice: "Yu'er, go quickly, you must live well."

The queen mother pushed him, and he was taken away with his eyes covered.

This was the last scene he had with his mother.

There must have been such a big fire that night, the Queen Mother must have been in great pain.

Gu Yunjie felt the overwhelming hatred in his heart and held his hand gently: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether it's the New Year or not. If you are safe, your mother must be very happy."

Yan Ruo felt very distressed after listening to Chu Chu's words.

Who would have thought that Chu Chu, who was the legitimate son of Chu State and could become the crown prince, would have such a life situation.

When they learned that their carriage had arrived, the second prince and the fifth prince arranged for someone to pick them up and placed them in a manor.

"Master Gu, I heard that your husband-in-law is also from the Chu country. In that case, you are also our daughter-in-law from the Chu country. When you come to our place, treat it as if you have returned to your own home. Don't be polite. If you need anything, let us know. It will be arranged naturally.”

"Thank you two princes for being so considerate." Gu Yunjie nodded gently.

"My father has always been suffering from heart disease. He is very happy to know that we have invited two miracle doctors. I wonder if you can invite them into the palace to help my father with his diagnosis and treatment."

"Emperor Chu invites you, so naturally Xiaojie and I don't dare to ask for help. Please tell Emperor Chu that Xiaojie and I can diagnose and treat him at any time."

"This is the best." Seeing that the two knowledgeable people did not refuse, the second prince was very happy: "I will go back and report to my father."

After the second prince left, Gu Yunjie looked at Chu Chu: "Are you going to meet him? If you stand in front of him, will he recognize you?"

"Sooner or later, we have to meet him, no sooner than this moment. Madam, their goal is me, just do it as normal and don't let them find out something is wrong."

"Don't worry, we're not stupid, we won't kill anyone in a hurry." Gu Yunjie's eyebrows curved.
