Eunuch Mo raised the curtain and entered the door, and saw Emperor Mingwen who had an angry look on his face just now. Now his face and eyes were smiling.

"Oh, Chu Shanggong is still very powerful. The moment you come, the emperor will smile from ear to ear."

After finishing his words, Emperor Mingwen glanced at Eunuch Mo angrily: "Talk too much!"

"Yes, this slave is talking too much." Eunuch Mo pretended to slap himself, with a smile on his face: "

Chu Shanggong, please do well and plead with the emperor on behalf of this slave."

Chu Yunning said angrily: "Glib tongue!"

"Hey, Your Majesty, I have prepared Yangcheng's special lunch for you and Chu Shanggong. I guarantee that you will be satisfied. Just let me make amends for my sins."

Emperor Mingwen hummed, and then said after a while: "That's right!"

There were only two people at lunch, so Emperor Mingwen personally served her a bowl of soup: "Ever since you became ill, your appetite has not improved. Eat more."

"Does the emperor treat this minister as a child?" Chu Yunning was a little dumbfounded.

Emperor Mingwen laughed, and the two of them were speechless.

The next day, rumors were flying in the streets of Yangcheng that the Southern Emperor was lustful, plundered the people's wealth, was harsh on the people, wasted no time on human life, and so on.

The people who didn't know the truth began to get upset and surrounded the mansion early in the morning.

Even from a distance, Chu Yunning could hear the noise outside and couldn't help but sigh: "Sometimes rumors stop at the wise, but there are a few wise men out there. The best way to deal with messages is to fight violence with violence."

Although I don't recommend it, you have to use this method when you have no choice but to do so.

Emperor Mingwen said calmly: "Don't worry yet, the big fish hasn't surfaced yet."

The restlessness continues.

Emperor Mingwen was not in a hurry. Instead, he was a little more leisurely and relaxed as he practiced calligraphy with Chu Yunning, taking every stroke seriously.

"The emperor's handwriting is so good, I admire it!"

No wonder she started practicing it when she was young. It looks much better than her chicken claw calligraphy.

"If your Majesty has time, please copy me another Meditation Sutra." She accidentally tore up the Meditation Sutra yesterday.

I couldn't remember the second half of it at all, so I had to trouble Emperor Mingwen.

Emperor Mingwen did not hesitate, he just picked up the pen and started copying. It took him two full hours to write without even raising his head.

Eunuch Mo was still feeling distressed, so he brought a cup of hot tea in on the way, but Emperor Mingwen gave him a sharp look, which frightened Eunuch Mo and ran away.

"Your Majesty, do you want to take a rest?" Chu Yunning asked.

Emperor Mingwen shook his head: "No need."

"Your Majesty, the Jingxin Sutra requires you to calm down before you can copy it..." Obviously Emperor Mingwen's mind was already confused. His words were not messy, but his speed was much slower, and he would also take a break from time to time. If this goes on, when will he be able to finish writing?

ah.

Emperor Mingwen raised his eyes and squinted at Chu Yunning: "No one has ever dared to dislike me. Do you know how much money my authentic works can be sold among the people?"

Instinctively, Chu Yunning's eyes lit up, her brows raised and she blurted out: "How much?"

He guessed almost all of her subconscious reactions, and even her expressions were exactly as expected.

Emperor Mingwen deliberately kept a straight face and pretended to be displeased: "Chu Yunning, do you know that selling the emperor's autograph is a capital crime!"

After saying this, Chu Yunning subconsciously shrank her neck and looked at Emperor Mingwen with a guilty conscience: "I was just talking casually. I will naturally keep the emperor's original work."

"Humph, that's good, don't let down all my hard work!" Emperor Mingwen rubbed his sour wrist, lowered his head and continued to copy.

Chu Yunning hurriedly stepped forward to grind.

The two of them seemed to be back in the past in the Council Hall, one by one reviewing the memorials, and no one disturbed them.

An hour later, Emperor Mingwen stopped writing and lowered his head to dry the ink. Eunuch Mo, who was outside the door, listened to the commotion outside and said quickly: "Your Majesty, Mr. Li wants to see you."

It's Mr. Li again.

"I don't know how many people Mr. Li has brought this time. I am still thinking about Mr. Li's twenty taels of silver."

Emperor Mingwen glared at Chu Yunning angrily: "Do you love money so much?"

Countless possessions and wealth are not enough for her to squander?

"Who would mind if money pricks their hands?" Chu Yunning asked with a hum.

In desperation, Emperor Mingwen waved his hand to her, and Chu Yunning quickly retreated, passing from the other side, still standing at the end.

"Hey, you're here too."

The formation was still the same as yesterday. The slightly chubby little girl waved to Chu Yunning: "I heard that several courtesans came today, all of them are peerless beauties, worth a thousand taels of silver."

"Oiran may not be favored by the Emperor of the South End. It's better for us to be clean." Another thin woman curled her lips in amusement and pointed at the graceful girl not far away: "You don't know, yesterday's lotus flower

My sister was left behind and was favored."

Lianhua turned around after hearing the words, and Chu Yunning was stunned by that face.

"Hey, why does this person look familiar?" the thin woman said.

The one named Lianhua looks very similar to Chu Yunning. If you didn’t look carefully, you would think they were the same person.

If Chu Yunning hadn't believed in General Chu's character, she would have definitely thought that this person was her twin sister.

Aunt Sheng appeared last time in Prince Xiao's Mansion, and now a Lotus appears again...

Obviously Lianhua also noticed Chu Yunning and shouted out loud: "Why are you here?"

The expression on her face was as if she knew her.

Chu Yunning was puzzled that the original owner did not recognize Lianhua at all in his memory. This was also his first time in Yangcheng.

"Are you Sister Chu?"

Does she know her surname is Chu?

This is strange.

"Sister Chu, I had such a hard time looking for you." Lianhua covered her mouth and sobbed softly, and said in a choked voice: "Back then, my father favored my mother at the border and left. My mother did not allow me to find my father, but last year

My mother died of illness, and I couldn't live any longer. When I was planning to go find my father, I was caught by Yangcheng soldiers on the way, but I didn't expect to meet Sister Chu here."

Lotus said and couldn't help crying.

Chu Yunning's face turned dark, and she said angrily: "Girl, you got the wrong person.

My surname is not Chu, my surname is Ning."

She didn't believe a word of what Lianhua said. There were too many lost children in the world, especially in an era of underdeveloped technology, it was impossible to find them.

Lian Hua happened to appear, and when they met, she called out her last name and made it up randomly. She must have inquired in advance that General Chu was not with the army this time.

There is no evidence for bullying her.

Lianhua was slightly stunned, why was it different from what was said? The woman in the scroll was the person in front of her, how could she not be Chu Yunning?

"Isn't your father General Chu?" Lianhua asked.

Chu Yunning sneered: "General Chu is open-minded and clean. How could I have such a father? However, my father does have some connections with the Chu family, but he is just another bloodline of the Chu family."

She immediately denied the idea that she was the daughter of General Chu.

Because she believed that there was a bigger conspiracy waiting for her later.

Lianhua was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to proceed. Chu Yunning added: "As far as I know, General Chu has been guarding the border all year round. Why does your mother want to prevent you from finding your biological father? Is it your mother?

There is nothing shameful about your identity. I don’t know how many people have spread rumors and caused trouble in the name of General Chu along the way. I advise you to think twice before proceeding. General Chu is the God of War in the south and cannot be doubted."

"I..." Lianhua's guilty eyes kept darting around, took a deep breath, and insisted that his father was General Chu.

Chu Yunning smiled again and said: "Since you are so sure that you are General Chu's daughter, the Emperor of Nanduan will not treat you badly. You have become rich, so don't forget us."

"That's right."

A group of people surrounded Lianhua and flattered him. Lianhua had never seen such a scene before. At that time, he was a little carried away and said to everyone: "Don't worry, when I recognize my father, I will definitely not forget my sisters."

The movement here quickly attracted the attention of the leader, Mr. Li. Chu Yunning turned his head slightly, and Mr. Li cast his gaze on the lotus head, attracted by her beauty.

"Where are you from and why have you never seen it before?"

"Sir, I was really desperate, so I got into it and wanted to see the emperor of Nanduan." Lianhua's voice became louder and louder, and she shouted: "Please make the decision, the emperor. The daughter of the people is Chu Lianhua, the daughter of General Chu of Nanduan."

Eunuch Mo was attracted by the voice and couldn't help but poke his head around. He was startled when he saw it: "Your Majesty, isn't that Chu Shang Palace? Wait, it doesn't seem to be the case, but it looks very similar."

He almost got it wrong.

Emperor Mingwen stood by the window and looked outside, frowning and said, "It doesn't look like it at all, so go ahead!"

Well……

Eunuch Mo scratched his head. He had no idea how Chu Shang Palace planned to deal with this fake.

But seeing the impatient look on Emperor Mingwen's face, Eunuch Mo didn't dare to ask, so he had to go out, pretending not to know Chu Yunning, and said coldly to Lianhua: "You are the one who is slandering General Chu. What evidence do you have to prove that you

Is she the daughter of General Chu?"

"I have a letter written by General Chu." Lianhua took out a letter, and the handwriting on the letter was indeed that of General Chu.
