Listening to his hearty laughter, Xie Chunchao simply broke the jar and took the initiative to admit,

"Yes, that's what I'm thinking."

"So, will you?"

"Will you betray me?"

"Of course not." Rong Shen raised his hand and pinched her face, tilted his head and asked, "Why don't you always believe me?"

Xie Chunchao did not answer.

Of course she wouldn't trust him completely.

To be precise, she would not believe anyone except her family.

Xie Chunchao knocked his hand away, snorted softly, and said, "I once believed you, but you still lied to me."

Rong Shen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said in a helpless and doting tone, "It's my fault. I will try my best to make up for it in the future, and I will never lie to you."

Xie Chunchao was noncommittal.

Rong Shen asked, "It's okay to just sit around in the post house, why don't we go out on the street to play?"

Xie Chunchao shook his head, "I don't want to go out."

I have been traveling continuously for the past few days. Although I am not exhausted, I am really not in the mood.

Xie Chunchao: "We will arrive at the capital of your Xia Kingdom tomorrow."

"Yes." Rong Shen saw Xie Chunchao's expression was different and asked with a smile, "What? Are you nervous?"

Xie Chunchao leaned back on the chair slightly relaxed and said, "Can I not be nervous?"

"Ever since you issued an edict to announce to the world that you will marry me soon, letters from you have been flying like snowflakes. I guess they contain letters to persuade you to think twice or to prevent you from marrying me, right?"

Rong Shen sat beside her gently and took her hand, "What do they care about? I am the one who married you. I know what kind of person you are. Nothing they say can change my decision."

The distance between the two was very close, and she could clearly smell the fragrance on his body and his breathing.

Come to think of it, so does he.

She raised her eyes and ran into Rong Shen's deep eyes. He raised his hand to touch her face and coaxed, "Don't be afraid. No matter what happens, I will be by your side. I can guarantee that your status and presence in Xia Kingdom will be guaranteed." Just like the state of Chu, no one can surpass you, and no one can bully you."

Xie Chunchao snorted, "I'm not afraid."

"If someone bullies me, I can beat him to the ground without your help."

Hearing this, Rong Shen couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and said, "Yes, my Chao Chao is the most powerful."

The afternoon was leisurely, and the two of them did not go out, but stayed in the post house.

They didn't talk, but the atmosphere was not condensed at all. Instead, there was an indescribable harmony.

The two of them were sitting idle at the desk, one writing and the other reading.

The person writing would look up at the other person from time to time, and when he lowered his head, the person reading would look up again.

Jianyang, the capital of the Xia Kingdom, is a large city with a long history.

Before the Xia Kingdom, it was the capital of three dynasties.

The overall style of the Xia Kingdom is as dull and simple as Sheng Jiajun said. The buildings on the streets are uniform in color, and the black and gray tones give people a strong sense of oppression. The people of the Xia Kingdom also have serious expressions and attach great importance to etiquette.

It is hard to imagine that such a boring city could produce a person with such a distinctive personality as Lin Jingrong.

He seemed incompatible with Xia Guo's style.

He has a changeable personality. Since he came to Xia Kingdom, he has been terribly childish most of the time. He also loves acting and always does some very exaggerated actions.

It was only later that Xie Chunchao learned that Rong Shen had not only played the role of a sickly young master, but also a passionate swordsman, an innocent boy, etc...

When the prince returned to the city, hundreds of officials greeted him, and the long street not far away was crowded with people watching.

Xie Chunchao was helped off the horse by Rong Shen. He held her arm and introduced to everyone, "This is Xie Chunchao, Princess Chunhua of Chu State, and she is also my future crown princess."

Xie Chunchao noticed that when Rong Shen talked about the Crown Princess, many ministers present had unhappy looks in their eyes. Perhaps they were forced by Rong Shen and did not speak out. But they treated her rather lightly.

Rong Shen immediately darkened his face and said, "Is this your attitude towards princesses from other countries and future crown princesses?"

One person couldn't bear this tone and said bluntly, "Your Highness, this Princess Chunhua is really a beauty. Have you forgotten what Princess Chunhua did in Shengguo?"

"Prince Sheng was deeply in love with her, but she actually killed Prince Sheng cruelly and mercilessly."

"Your Highness, you must not marry this girl!"

"Shut up!" Rong Shen shouted harshly, "Prince Sheng's matter is Gu's plan and has nothing to do with Princess Chunhua."

"If it weren't for the princess, I would have died in Shengguo long ago!"

"Princess Chunhua is Gu's savior. If any of you say such things again in the future, you will despise Gu!"

All the ministers were shocked and asked, "What? The death of Prince Sheng is related to His Highness?"

After they asked, they all looked at Mingqiu, "Is it true?"

Naturally, Mingqiu would not undermine the prince and nodded silently.

Besides, this matter was indeed done by the prince.

When the ministers saw this, they didn't know what to say.

It's just that they still looked at Xie Chunchao with cold eyes, but they did enough to show courtesy.

Although Xie Chunchao is about to hold a wedding with Rong Shen, according to etiquette, the two cannot live in the same palace before they get married.

Therefore, even if Rong Shen was reluctant to give up, he had no choice but to place Xie Chunchao in the post house first.

He made up his mind to capture Sheng Guo as a betrothal gift for marrying Xie Chunchao.

So he didn't want to hold a wedding with her before the Sheng Kingdom fell.

Xie Chunchao was also a little puzzled by this.

In fact, she didn't care whether the betrothal gift was rich or not. On the contrary, she wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible.

It's not that she is in a hurry to get married, but her engagement with Rong Shen also represents the alliance between Chu and Xia, which can temporarily stop the angry Sheng State from attacking Chu State.

But Rong Shen said that when he married her for the first time, he didn't produce anything, and even the wedding was very simple.

He hoped that this time he could give her an unprecedented grand wedding.

When Xie Chunchao heard this, he had no choice but to let him go.

Rong Shen has been away from the country for many days, and now he finally returns to the court. There are a lot of government affairs that need to be handled by him in the prince's palace. In addition, he wants to capture the Sheng Kingdom as soon as possible, so he is busy all day long, accompanying Xie Chunchao. There will be less time.

Fortunately, Xie Chunchao is not the kind of person who needs the company of a man now.

Rong Shen is busy, and she is even busier.

Although she was far away from Chu State, she did everything she needed to do, and at the same time she was also paying close attention to the developments in Sheng State.

She found a useful piece of news from Sheng Guo today.

Le Shangshu's son was beheaded by Emperor Sheng...

And that son was also Le Shangshu's favorite son.

Xie Chunchao squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then wrote,

"Send someone to approach this Le Shangshu."

Her son was beheaded by the emperor for no reason. She didn't believe that Le Shangshu didn't have any resentment in his heart.

At the same time, she also received the letter from Chu State.

In the letter, her father did not criticize her in a single word. On the contrary, it was filled with words of concern.

Xie Chunchao's eyes were full of tears when he watched it from beginning to end.
