That day, when someone was chasing him, Yan Huisheng's bodyguards were scattered by the killers along the way. He was protected by others and finally he was the only one left, and the two killers were chasing after him. In fact, he had no strength at that time, and he was in the wilderness. He thought that he might be the one who wanted to kill him behind the scenes. I am satisfied that once he dies, my father will no longer have to feel that he is a threat to him. I wonder if he will be sad and mournful for him.
Unexpectedly, he took a turn and saw a woman fishing by the river. The woman turned around when she heard the noise. He was afraid that he would implicate her. If the killer behind him killed him, he would never let her go as a witness. .
He never imagined at the time that after the woman glanced at him, she suddenly withdrew the fishing net from the river. Just when the two killers were about to drop their knives on him, she suddenly threw the fishing net at the two killers. She passed by, but she moved too fast. The two killers were unprepared and were caught in the fishing net. He woke up and knew that the opportunity was rare. He turned around and killed the two killers with one sword.
After killing the person, he had no strength left. He sat down on the ground almost exhausted, thanked her and said, "Thank you, girl." I still remember that her expression did not change at that time, as if she were normal, and she said to him, "Yes." Remuneration? As a thank you gift." Seeing that he was stunned, she added, "If you have anything valuable on you, just give it to me." Then, seeing that he didn't respond, she pointed out directly, "For example , the dagger you carry on your waist looks good to me."
He loved that dagger very much, but no matter how much he loved it, it was not as important as his life, so he took it out from his waist without hesitation and threw it to her.
She took the dagger and looked at it for a while. She seemed to be very satisfied, and her voice was filled with a pleasant smile. "Okay, I have received your reward. It's worth saving my life. I'm leaving. You can do whatever you want!"
She left as soon as she said it, but when he was about to ask to stay, he noticed that someone else was coming, so he stopped and immediately stood up, kicking the fishing net she had thrown away and the dead bodies of the two killers into the river, quickly cleaning up the blood on the ground.
In the blink of an eye, she had gone far, and the person who came was his secret guard. He said that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time and asked him to leave quickly, so he could only leave with him.
Therefore, he didn't get close at that time, and the sky was getting dark, so even her face was a little blurry, but the memory of that time was deep. When he was at the end of his rope and thought he had no hope of survival, there was such a beautiful and smart woman, and he seemed to be moved by it at a glance. Not surprisingly.
The queen choked when she heard the words. After a while, she spoke again, "If you protect the person Queen Nanchu wants to kill, I'm afraid she will anger Queen Nanchu and support someone else. You know, the boss and the second child even The fourth child all has ambitions."
"The Queen of Nanchu wants to kill, why? There must be a reason. Just as the mother said, how big the hatred is, even thousands of miles away, to kill her through twists and turns through your hands, it is she who dare not send people blatantly Come to the mainland of Daliang to kill someone? Or has she actually killed someone before and can't kill him? That's why she's so roundabout? Want to use your hands to get rid of the person?" Yan Hui asked.
The Queen pondered, "This needs to be checked."
"And the King of Nanchu, does he know that the queen wants to kill a girl thousands of miles away?" Yan echoed: "Mother, the Queen of Nanchu has nothing to be afraid of. Even if she can persuade the King of Nanchu to support Gu, she is still Nanchu." The king is determined to support Gu, and if she offends her, and if her opinions can really influence King Nan Chu to support others, then it means that King Nan Chu has a problem with Gu in the first place."
Although the queen felt it was reasonable, she still had something to say, "What about Zhou Gu?"
Yan echoed in silence.
The queen said solemnly: "You are the prince. Even if Zhou Gu had not been engaged to her, you would not be able to marry her. Your status is not worthy of her. Unless you are promised the position of concubine, you can barely qualify."
The prince said calmly: "Mother has overthought it. With the pressure my father is currently exerting on his sons, he will definitely not let me marry a noble daughter to help me. Maybe her identity is just right in my father's eyes." ."
The queen took a breath and suddenly became nervous, "Do you really want to marry her? That boy Zhou Gu has always been sincere to you, how can you take his wife away!"
The prince was silent.
After a while, he said, "What if he doesn't want to marry?"
He looked at the queen, "If Zhou Gu doesn't want to marry, does the queen think that it will be okay for her son to marry her?"
The queen's face changed, and she asked with restraint, "Would Zhou Gu not want to marry him? Since the old Duke sent Zhou Gu to Jiangning in person, he attaches great importance to the engagement he made since he was a child. And since you can take a liking to it at a glance, Can Zhou Gu look down on this woman?"
Yan Huihui fell silent again.
The queen said solemnly: "Prince, you can't make mistakes, especially at such a critical time like this. How can the love between children be worth your great achievements? If you offend the Queen of Nanchu, and then offend Zhou Gu, you will offend the protector of the country." My Lord, your position as Crown Prince may not be stable."
Seeing that Yan Huihui was silent, the Queen spoke harshly again, "You have always been self-restrained and polite, upright, gentle and upright, possessing both ability and political integrity. Everyone praises you. It's because of how much hard work you have put in since you were a child that you have this reputation. It is not easy to build a good reputation, but it can only be ruined in an instant. Once you ruin it, you will not be able to keep your position as prince. Once you cannot keep your position as prince, even if you marry the person you want to marry, you can protect it. Do you want to live with her? Since ancient times, you should know better than me by reading the history books about the princes who failed to ascend to the throne of God. Which one of them had a good ending? You can't be confused!"
Yan responded silently.
The queen softened her tone and said, "There are thousands of women in the world. You are the prince now and will be the king of a country in the future. What kind of woman do you want? Why should you be obsessed with one person? What's more, how deep can a love be if you meet only once? Taking advantage of this short period of time, it will not be difficult for you to give up. I believe you can let it go, but you have to consider the overall situation."
After she finished speaking, she saw that Yan Huisheng was still unmoved and a little anxious, "Prince!"
Yan Huisheng finally spoke, rubbed the center of his eyebrows, and said helplessly: "I can promise my mother that if Zhou Gu wants to marry me, my son will not compete with him. He and his son have been friends since they were young, and they have been together in the East Palace for several years. After Gu Chicheng went to Jiangning County to congratulate his fiancée and her haircut, he still helped Gu attract talents. Gu is not a ruthless and cold-blooded person and must take away his wife."
The Queen breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, "It's best if you think so."
"But if I don't interfere, if he doesn't marry, or if their engagement is cancelled, I will take action." Yan Hui added, "At that time, I hope my mother will not stop me. Tell my mother the truth. , you and the maids given to me by my father, I have not touched any of them and have no interest in them."
