Luo Lan felt that this Chu man who came and left in a hurry was a bit strange, so she ordered Xiao Shuangzi and others to be on guard and ready to fight at any time.
And she was going to operate on Leng Yu. After taking out the arrow from his body, his body would recover soon.
The Chinese New Year is about four or five days away, and she promised these soldiers that she would let them meet their commander after the Chinese New Year.
Now it seems that in order for them to spend the New Year in peace, it is necessary for her to bring Leng Yu out in advance.
Before entering the operating room, she asked Ah Hong again: "How are those two Chu people?"
"They were very quiet, not noisy or fussy, and had no intention of running away."
"That's good. It seems we can only let them spend this New Year in the military camp of Daning Kingdom."
"What do you mean, the princess, to wait until the prince wakes up before dealing with these two people?"
"Yes, the prince is the commander-in-chief. He has to make the decision about going to the battlefield. It is also up to him to decide whether these two people need to be hostages on the battlefield."
"Then...what should we do if the other party comes to start a war during this period?"
Luo Lan's eyes flickered and her slender eyebrows raised slightly as she replied:
"there is always a solution to a problem."
She didn't want to start a war with the enemy while Leng Yu was away from the military camp. Regardless of her chances of winning, she, a woman, did not have the ability to command thousands of troops.
Although Xiao Shuangzi and others are brave enough, they are also foolhardy and unqualified for the position of interim coach.
In a battle, the reasonable deployment of the coach is very important. It can be said that it is related to the outcome of the battle.
Although she does not hope to start a war during this period, if the other party insists on coming to attack, she will do her best to deal with it.
…
After Liu Jin returned to Chu State, he took the lead in going to the queen to recover his life.
Although the queen of Chu State does not care about the affairs of the court, her status in Chu State is very high, because her brother is the great master of Chu State, her son is the little prince of Chu State, and the future heir to the throne, she is the king. Meng Xin was the only queen, no matter what she said, it was enough to make the Chu people respect her as the queen.
When she saw Liu Jin coming back, she asked anxiously:
"How about it?"
Liu Jin's face was a little dark, and his eyebrows were twisted into the character "Sichuan".
Seeing him frowning and saying nothing, the queen asked again,
"Brother, are you talking? How are you doing?"
Liu Jin's eyes tightened, and then he said seriously:
"That woman does look exactly like Xina."
"Really?"
"Seriously."
Hearing this, the queen's eyebrows knitted together, her eyes darkened, and she said slowly:
"This is strange. At first Tu'er came back and said that I didn't believe it. How could there be people who look exactly the same in this world?"
"You asked me to deliver that irrelevant letter just to see if what Tu'er said was true?"
The queen nodded with deep eyes, "Yes."
"Why is this? Shouldn't we think about how to save Tu'er now?"
"I am here to save Tu'er, and also to save thousands of people from the fire."
After saying this, she stood up and said to Liu Jin:
"Brother, you go back first, I'll go to the ancestral hall to have a look."
"You want to see Meng Yue? Didn't she say that she would never see outsiders in this life and that she would eat fast and chant sutras for the rest of her life?"
"That said, after so many years, there are some things I must ask her."
After saying this, she lifted her skirt and walked outside, followed by a group of girls.
Along the way, her face was extremely solemn. When Meng Yue was brought back to Chu State by Meng Xin, she was full of curiosity about her. There were too many mysteries about Meng Yue that she could not solve.
When Meng Yue came back that year, Meng Xin handed the child to her and asked her to take care of it. She wanted to ask about the origin of the child, but Meng Xin severely scolded her. From then on, she did not dare to mention it again. .
From that time on, Meng Yue also began to enter the royal ancestral hall to study Buddhism. Meng Xin even repaired the ancestral hall specifically for her, and no outsiders were allowed to disturb her.
She has lived here for twenty years. During these twenty years, she never cried, made trouble, or laughed. She rarely talked to anyone, and even her own daughter rarely saw her.
It was also from that time that Meng Xin, who had always disliked war, suddenly changed his temperament. He continued to provoke troubles against Daning and built his own power in Daning, allowing this war to continue for a long time.
Although she, the queen, does not have to participate in the war, she still feels exhausted.
She desperately hopes that this war will end soon.
Now that Letu and Xina were captured by each other, they would become tools used by the enemy to threaten Chu at any time. At such a critical moment, another woman who looked similar to Xina appeared. She suddenly had a bold guess. This guess Whether it is true or not, I can only confirm it by going to Meng Yue.
When she came to the courtyard built specifically for Meng Yue in the ancestral hall, the girl at the door stopped her.
"Queen, what's wrong with you?"
The queen raised her hand to the little girl with a dark expression, "Go and inform Princess Mengyue that I have something important to ask her."
"When I return to the queen, the eldest princess will not see anyone. Please don't embarrass me."
"Bold."
The queen suddenly stood on her head and shouted:
"Go and tell the eldest princess that Princess Xina was captured by people from the Daning Kingdom."
Hearing this, the little girl was stunned for a moment, then bowed and saluted, and hurriedly opened the door and entered the house to report the news.
The status of the eldest princess in the palace was not as high as that of the queen. She did not even dare to break into the courtyard where she lived, and could only wait for the girl to pass the news.
But she doesn't mind. She just wants to express the doubts that have been in her heart for many years at this time, and find some clues to calm the war.
After a while, the little girl quickly opened the door and said softly:
"Queen, eldest princess, please come in."
The queen nodded solemnly and walked through the door...
Here is an empty room without much decoration. In the middle of the main hall, there is a Buddha statue. At this time, Meng Yue is kneeling and sitting there quietly...
After the queen came in, she came to her quietly and asked softly,
"Meng Yue, long time no see, are you okay?"
Meng Yue, who was kneeling in front of the Buddha, slowly opened her eyes, and saw that she was already in her early forties. Her eyes were like water, but with a touch of coldness, and her expression was indifferent, as if she was a fairy who did not understand the fireworks of the world.
This eldest princess, who has not had contact with anyone or left home for twenty years, seems to have been forgotten by Father Time. There is no trace of the years on her face. With her bun, no one would guess her age.
She glanced at the queen, and then she stood up from the ground with the help of the girl. After making a gesture of invitation, she led the way.
The queen followed her footsteps to another room, which was no different from the room where the main hall people lived, except that the decoration was simpler.
"Sister-in-law Wang, please sit down."
After saying this too much, she completely ignored whether the queen was seated or not, but sat down on her own.
She's not rude, she just doesn't like the red tape.
The queen also knew her temperament, so she sat next to her without caring.
"Xiao Hong, serve tea."
The girl who was guarding the door just now is the only girl here, and she has been with her for ten years.
Xiaohong came over with a teapot, poured tea for the queen and Meng Yue in turn, and then quietly retreated.
The queen did not hold the teacup, but said bluntly:
"Meng Yue, Xina was captured by the enemy, aren't you worried at all?"
