He clenched his fists tightly, and the lip he was biting was bleeding.
Now, he doesn't even dare to say an apology in person...
"Your Majesty, my condolences..." Xiang Yini sobbed hypocritically beside him, tears overflowing from her eyes, her fragile appearance was pitiful.
"My daughter! My daughter!" Xiang Qanting was in a panic with a bit of broken sadness.
No matter how cruel he is, after all, the person in front of him is his biological daughter who he has watched grow up, and it is difficult for anyone to accept it.
"Who is it! Who made my daughter look like this! I must get to the bottom of this matter!" Xiang Qanting clenched his fists tightly and roared.
The bloodstains in the Imperial Concubine's Palace have all been cleaned up, and Xiang Yini feels relieved. It is still difficult for Xiang Qanting, a minister, to touch the prince.
She looked at the shabby charred corpse in front of her, with a hint of evil in her eyes.
My good sister, although you have done a lot for me, who has made your life better than mine? You can do so much more for me!
Five days later, the boat bound for Nanyue Kingdom finally docked.
Unlike Bei Ming, who loves black, the scenery that catches the eye is fiery red.
The trees on the roadside and the bricks and tiles of the buildings are a little different from those in Beiming. It is already dusk, and half of the sky is dyed red by the burning clouds, which gives it a unique look.
Chu Jiaoli stepped off the boat, stood on the coast, took a deep breath, and said: "The last time I came to Nanyue with my sister was a thousand years ago, and a lot has changed here." p>
A tall man wearing red armor walked towards him. He looked about thirty years old and looked cold and heroic.
He cupped his fists and lowered his head in front of Beigong Tengxiao, and said: "See His Highness the Crown Prince of Beiming Kingdom. I am General Li Mu of Nanyue Kingdom, and I am responsible for escorting His Highness to the Nanyue Palace safely."
"Yes." Beigong Tengxiao nodded slightly, responded, and said, "I have heard about General Li Mu for a long time, but now I see that he is really high-spirited. It is better to see him than to hear him a hundred times."
Li Mu is the most valiant general in Nanyue. The Emperor of Nanyue showed his best sincerity by sending him to escort him.
Beigong Tengxiao glanced at Chu Jiaoli who was standing in front of the tree picking up fallen leaves, and said coldly: "Come here, we are leaving."
Chu Jiaoli turned her head and smiled at him: "Okay!"
Li Mu showed a polite smile and said: "The Crown Princess is so innocent."
When she said this, Chu Jiaoli was already bounding towards them.
Beigong Tengxiao paused for a moment and said, "This is the concubine."
Hearing this, Li Mu's eyes flashed with surprise. He was really the first person in history to bring a concubine to discuss business.
Beigong Tengxiao naturally knew what Li Mu was thinking, and suddenly he had a headache. He stretched out his long arm, pulled her wrist to his side, and lowered his voice and warned in her ear: "Don't embarrass me." Chu Jiaoli raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at Li Mu with surprised eyes, and knew what he was thinking.
She showed an elegant and dignified smile and said to Li Mu: "General Li Mu, I am the concubine of His Highness the Crown Prince. The middle palace is Huanli. I have troubled you to escort her safely along the way."
Hearing the surname "Zhonggong", Li Mu's eyes instantly lit up. If she had this status, it would be much higher than that of the minister's daughter. Naturally, she would be qualified to follow Beigong Tengxiao. Then he smiled and said:
"It turns out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess of Zhongluo. I am disrespectful and disrespectful."
"The eldest princess has always wanted to visit Nanyue, so I stopped by to take a look in advance for my sister. If my sister is free, she will definitely visit Nanyue." Chu Jiaoli's tone was gentle and her smile was friendly, not like usual at all.
The silly girl in there looks like she’s only capable of getting into trouble.
During the millennium when the Kingdom of China and Romania was fixed, the impression of the Four Kingdoms on China and Romania was just a legend, but now there are some contacts. China and Romania sent four princesses to marry into the Four Kingdoms, and merchants from the Four Kingdoms would go to China and Romania to do business.
Getting closer.
This also means that the four countries are gradually paying attention to the existence of Zhongluo, and they also know that in Zhongluo's court, in addition to the regent Zhonggong Wei, there is also a very important figure - the eldest princess Zhonggong Tangluo. Even her status and
His ability is even higher than that of Zhong Gong Wei.
Hearing what Chu Jiaoli said, Li Mu's attitude was even more respectful than before, and said: "It would be an honor for Nanyue if the eldest princess Zhongluo is willing to come in person."
Seeing that Li Mu had lost his previous strange expression, Beigong Tengxiao let out a gentle breath. Chu Jiaoli's unhurried smile and dignified etiquette gave him a vague sense of familiarity.<
/p>
He leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Have you changed your gender? Is this still you?"
Chu Jiaoli still had that polite smile on her face and responded in a low voice with her teeth closed: "Who am I? I am also a princess after all. What rules have I never learned? That's because my sister dotes on me. I
It's just that you don't like this, you really think I'm a country girl..."
Beigong Tengxiao showed a faint smile of satisfaction, then stood up and said to Li Mu: "It's not too late, it's important to hurry up."
"Your Highness, don't be too anxious. Your Majesty invited His Highness Beiming to stay in our country for more than two months. He also hopes that His Highness will be satisfied when he comes to Nanyue. Your Highness is coming with a lot of travels. I have taken it upon myself to book the best inn in this city, which is five years ahead.
100 meters, please take a short rest, Your Highness."
After listening to his arrangement, Beigong Tengxiao nodded with satisfaction.
With his permission, Li Mu gestured behind him, and a gorgeous carriage stopped in front of the two of them.
"Your Highness, please get on the carriage."
Beigong Tengxiao glanced at Chu Jiaoli, who was walking to the corner to buy candied haws, and paused lightly, saying, "That's all, I'm walking."
"Yes."
The noisy streets are neatly paved with bluestone slabs. The shadows of pedestrians are stretched by the sunset.
Chu Jiaoli had a great time wandering around, floating on the sea for so long without being able to go anywhere except for a boat, she was exhausted.
Passing by a pond, she stopped. The pond was made of stones. The water in the pond was rippling with blue waves, and the setting sun reflected the colorful colors on the water.
Above the pool is a peach tree with peach blossoms in full bloom. The petals are falling in the pool, which is dreamy and beautiful.
The water in the pool was clear. Looking to the bottom, she looked at the piles of copper plates at the bottom of the pool. She smiled like a child. She turned around and grabbed Beigong Tengxiao's sleeve and said: "This wishing pool is still there! I came here a thousand years ago.
I made a wish here, and it came true!"
Beigong Tengxiao glanced at the hand she was holding on to him, frowned slightly and said, "I don't believe in illusory things."
"But this is really effective!" As if she was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, Chu Jiaoli grabbed his arm eagerly and said, "Come on, come on, let's make a wish together!"
