Ah Yu blushed. The lotus pink silk ribbon was so thin that it could see through her skin. It represented the color of lust and made people daydream...
“Your humble servant…”
"It's okay. If you like to watch, just stand by and watch. When there is a suitable opportunity, I will ask your master to give you a few women."
"I dare not!"
Ah Yu lowered her head and stood at the door, no longer following closely.
However, Chu Li didn't intend to do anything.
She guessed that Chu Dichi was not in the imperial capital.
She guessed that he must have been injured after falling from such a high cliff.
Today's imperial capital is Chu Yeli's world.
Fortunately, she was able to leave the city on the pretext of paying homage to the Regent. Although she was being closely watched from all directions and angles, it was still freer than being locked up in Fengyi Palace.
Outside the city.
It is snowing heavily.
A cenotaph stood in the snowy woods, looking particularly desolate. On the tombstone were engraved a few simple words - Tomb of Chu Dichi.
Chu Li burned everything he brought.
"Uncle, you need to take care of yourself over there... It's cold, wear more clothes... These are the clothes you loved when you were alive..."
She sorted the things.
The slender fingertips wrapped around the long ribbon, tied a double knot, and threw it on the ground.
Double connection, double in pairs, good luck and peace.
She was very well treated in the palace.
Don't worry.
When the money and paper were almost burned, Chu Li turned around and said, "Let's go back to the capital."
"yes."
The palace maid supported him.
A Yu stayed in front of the grave for a while, checked the surroundings, and then checked the things left by Chu Li to make sure there was nothing missing before leaving.
In the carriage.
The wheels rolled over the thick snow on the ground, making a squeaking sound that was somewhat hypnotic and languid.
Chu Li held the hand warmer, closed his eyes, and thought for a long time. He vaguely heard the sound of quarreling outside:
"The defeated general..."
"Assholes! Get out...you barbarians..."
"How vulgar!"
Chu Li opened his eyes, "What happened outside?"
The maid probed for a moment before saying, "Miss Xie, there seems to be a camp not far away, and it seems that someone is quarreling...Ah! Why are they fighting?"
Chu Li lifted a corner of the curtain.
Those wearing blue clothes are Chu army.
The one wearing a yellow coat is a southern barbarian.
At present, a dozen Chu soldiers were arguing and fighting with a dozen southern barbarian soldiers.
"parking."
The southern barbarians attacked the Chu army:
"Defeated generals! Our princess gave face to your emperor and didn't take you prisoners. Otherwise, you would all be our Nanman captives!"
The Chu army fought back fiercely with red eyes:
"You bunch of invaders, get out of Da Chu!"
"You're still talking about the Great Chu? Now it's the Dongling Kingdom. Hahahaha, you are just a bunch of homeless beasts!"
"The southern barbarians are going too far!"
Draw the sword!
The two sides were confronting each other, and when blood was about to be drawn, a voice stopped them:
"stop!"
More than twenty people turned their heads to look over. The southern barbarian soldiers knew Chu Li, and the Chu army naturally also recognized Chu Li, who had always been by the side of the regent.
"Thank you, Miss."
Chu Li walked over on the snow, holding a hand warmer, and asked calmly:
"What are you arguing about?"
Chu Jun's eyes instantly turned red:
"Miss Xie, please help us! My father and elder brother died on the battlefield in Southern Xinjiang. We have an irreconcilable blood feud with the Nanman. Now the Nanman are bullying us and humiliating us. We swear to never make friends with the Nanman!"
"The southern barbarians are arrogant and bully us, humiliating us."
They had never suffered such injustice when the regent was in power.
They would rather die in battle!
Now, the new emperor has ascended the throne, the two countries have reached an armistice, and the people are indeed living and working in peace and contentment, but what is the value of their efforts? What is the value of so many lives lost in the war?
The southern barbarian soldier said fiercely:
"We are telling the truth, humph! The entire Dongling belongs to our princess!"
"That's right, the prince can destroy you with just a flick of his finger!"
They laughed triumphantly: "You may not know yet, but the emperor has given half of the country's territory to our princess. From now on, you are our slaves, right? Haha!"
"Hahaha!"
The Chu army was extremely angry.
This is just a small part of what is shown. In places that Chu Li cannot see, there are many examples of the Southern Barbarians being arrogant and bullying the Great Chu.
When the different cultures, beliefs and customs of the two countries collide, sparks are bound to arise.
Chu Yeli, this throne of yours is really a hot seat for you.
In this case, I will add fuel to the fire.
Chu Li said with cold eyes:
"A group of foreigners came to our land and ran wild. They really couldn't tell what day it was!"
As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake.
"Call me back!"
Chu Jun immediately straightened his back: "Yes!"
A dozen southern barbarian soldiers glared at him: "How dare you!"
"We are the princess' personal guards!"
"So what? I'm beating up a bunch of ignorant hooligans like you. Do I need to pick a day?" Chu Li raised his hand warmer and smashed it over.
The morale of the Chu army was greatly boosted and they fought back fiercely.
beat!
Beat him to death!
The Regent has never let them suffer such humiliation. Miss Xie is indeed the Regent's favorite woman. She has the right temperament!
Even if the Regent is dead, they will follow Miss Xie to the death!
-
In the afternoon.
Tuoba Mingyue received the news and walked into the imperial study with a gloomy face:
"Brother Ye Li must give me an explanation for this matter!"
Chu Li actually brought people to beat up her personal guards!
This group of personal guards followed her through life and death, risking their lives and shedding their blood, traveling thousands of miles away from home, all the way to the capital of the Great Chu, to help Chu Yeli seize power.
Now, he was beaten.
This was tantamount to a slap in her face.
Chu Yeli frowned, turned his head and instructed the guard beside him, who immediately went out to investigate.
"Mingyue, sit down and talk."
Tuoba Mingyue sat down with her sleeves swung, annoyed, "I know that Brother Yeli likes her, and I don't want to cause trouble, nor do I ask for your love, but can you take good care of her? Even if you lock her up and keep her in the harem, don't let her cause trouble in my territory."
Chu Yeli said in a deep voice: "I will give you an explanation."
"It is my soldiers who have been wronged, not me. Brother Yeli should understand how much these soldiers have sacrificed for your throne."
The man's eyes darkened.
At this time, outside, the young eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, Miss Xie is here."
Chu Yeli immediately turned his head and said, "What are you doing? It's so cold outside. You don't need to report it in the future."
"yes!"
The young eunuch ran out quickly.
Soon, Chu Li came in.
When he came, he was holding a bowl of freshly cooked soup in his hand and looked at Tuoba Mingyue unexpectedly:
"I didn't know the princess was here, so I only cooked one portion of soup..."
Chu Yeli stood up and asked, "Did you cook?"
He immediately picked up the porcelain cup and threw it on the table, holding her hands and carefully examining them, "Are you burned? How did you get into the kitchen? When did you learn to cook? It's so cold, why are you doing this!"
Chu Li lowered her head slightly and shyly pulled her hand away:
"Fifth brother, the princess is here..."
