Zhou Gu and the King of Nanchu walked out of the slope while eating roast rabbit meat.
Zhang Yun followed silently. He didn't think it was appropriate to have a roasted rabbit all to himself, so he cut off half of it and handed it over.
The King of Nan Chu waved his hand, "I can eat half of it. When you are middle-aged, your appetite is not that big. You can eat it!"
Zhang Yun withdrew his hand after hearing this, separated the half again, and handed one part to Zhou Gu.
Zhou Gu answered happily, "Thank you very much."
King Nan Chu turned to look at the two of them and commented, "It's great to be young. When I was young, I had the same appetite as you."
Zhou Gu said: "Xiao Qi can eat it too."
"Oh? She also has a big appetite?" King Nan Chu wanted to see his daughter very much and was curious about everything about her. After all, in the past five years, the news sent back by the secret guards was concise and to the point, so one should not be too careful.
Zhou Gu nodded, "Well, she roasted a rabbit for me, so I can eat one myself."
King Nan Chu smiled and said, "Not bad."
He looked at Zhou Gu, "I heard someone tell me that she was too thin, so I thought she was weak and picky about food and didn't have a good appetite."
"No, she just doesn't gain weight no matter how much she eats." Zhou Gu muttered, "If someone raises pigs and feeds her like this, they will definitely pay for it."
The king of Nanchu laughed.
As the three of them walked, they finished eating the roasted rabbit and came to the outside of the slope, where an ordinary carriage was parked.
The three of them wiped their hands with handkerchiefs and got into the carriage. The curtain fell to block the cold wind outside the carriage. Zhou Gu said to the King of Southern Chu: "Let's go to the border of Wei."
The King of Nanchu said "Huh?" "Why?"
"Nowadays, the Nangong family and the Liu'an King faction, in addition to staring at the royal capital, are staring at the border between Nanchu and Daliang. The news of your leaving the palace can be kept secret for a day at most? You can't tell for half a day. So. , we can’t go to the border of Daliang, it’s best to go in the opposite direction, so that people can’t find our people unexpectedly.”
King Nan Chu nodded and sighed, "In this case, when can I see my daughter?"
"You have endured it for five years, not to mention a few more months." Zhou Gu said: "I stole you out of the capital, and I will keep you safe. Just follow us, and I guarantee that one day, I will keep you safe. Meet her.”
"Okay!" The King of Nanchu had no choice. He never thought that one day, he, the King of Nanchu, would also be a deserter.
So, according to the plan planned by Zhou Gu and Zhang Yun, the two took the King of Southern Chu towards the direction of Wei.
After walking for a while, King Nan Chu remembered something and said to Zhou Gu: "Show your marriage certificate to me."
Zhou Gu looked at him warily, "You wouldn't tear it up in anger after reading it and deny the marriage contract? I can tell you that Xiaoqi is not easy to mess with and has a bad temper. You tore up the marriage contract It doesn't matter, it's useless not to acknowledge me. If she gets angry, she will not only resupply me with the marriage certificate and let you tear it up in vain, but also denying you and accepting the throne from you will be a loss outweighing the gain."
King Nan Chu laughed angrily, "Do you think Gu Zheng is the person who does this kind of thing?"
"It's hard to say." Zhou Gu was unsure, "After all, I am the mother-in-law who made the engagement. You don't want to abide by it, and you don't even respect it. You actually arranged for Xiaoqi to be trained in advance and stay in the snow at night. It's really hard to believe you. "
The King of Nan Chu was not angry, "At that time, I felt that you two were not suitable. You were working as a companion to the Prince of Daliang in the East Palace. It is self-evident what your future will be. As for Xiao Qi, she is the daughter of the Princess of Nan Chu, and she will return home in the future. From Nanchu. Who knew you were willing to give up your own future and chase Xiaoqi to Nanchu, insisting on being her husband?"
"If you had known earlier, you wouldn't have arranged for her to stay in the snow at night, right?" Consultant Zhou.
"No." King Nan Chu shook his head, "I always have to make more plans for my daughter so that she has a choice in the future."
Zhou Gu thought it made sense.
The King of Nan Chu looked at him and said, "Do you admit that Ye Guixue has both good looks and good looks, which is very rare? Is she worthy enough to not humiliate Xiao Qi?"
Zhou Gu didn't want to admit it, but the fact was true. He nodded magnanimously, "Admit it." Then, before King Nan Chu could speak, he said unconvincedly: "I'm not too far behind."
The King of Nanchu looked at him in surprise but not too much surprise and nodded in recognition, showing a pleasant smile, "Yes, you are not too bad. Even in the palace of the King of Nanchu, I have heard that your two-handed sword is very powerful. Be famous all over the world.”
Zhou Gu curled his lips and said arrogantly: "I didn't expect that Zhang Ping would rebel and it would make me famous." After he finished speaking, he bumped Zhang Yun beside him with his arm, "Isn't that right, Brother Zhang Yun?"
Zhang Yun didn't want to answer him. He had seen what he was capable of when he had a verbal confrontation with Ye Guixue last night. Today, he did it again in front of the King of Nanchu.
He really convinced him.
He nodded slowly, "Yes, Brother Zhou's two-handed sword is very powerful. I have the honor to experience it personally. I almost died under Brother Zhou's sword. I will never forget it."
Zhou Gu Dale said, "Yes, I didn't kill you at that time. Fortunately, you inspired me to escape."
Zhang Yun rolled his eyelids and didn't want to pay attention to him.
The King of Nanchu said curiously: "I just heard a general idea, come and tell me."
Seeing that King Nan Chu was interested in listening, Zhou Gu was unambiguous and did not feel ashamed. He immediately told him about how he defended Nanping City in the battle. In his words, he praised himself unceremoniously.
He used to not be a person who liked to praise himself, but now in front of his father-in-law, he still had to praise himself. However, he praised himself for his level of praise. He did not exaggerate or exaggerate, but praised himself calmly and word by word.
Zhang Yun sighed with emotion. The fact was still the same, but from what Zhou Gu heard, he himself was very radiant. He thought that he was worthy of being the first person to win the imperial examination among countless students in Daliang.
The King of Nanchu could not help but nod his head and said several good words in a row.
After Zhou Gu finished speaking, the King of Nanchu basically understood, "So, Xiaoqi is delaying coming because the situation in Daliang has not been completely stabilized. She and the prince still have some things to negotiate and cooperate on. Do you want you to come first?" "
"Well, she wants to say goodbye to her close relatives and friends. After all, Daliang is thousands of miles away from Nanchu. She left Daliang and came to Nanchu. She doesn't know when she will go back again." Zhou Gu said: "You know, Su Everyone in the family is very kind to her, especially her adoptive parents. In her heart, she does not feel that she is not her biological child. Her brother has also loved and protected her since she was a child. She actually feels very sad when she is asked to give him up. "
The king of Nanchu said: "We can bring them all to Nanchu in the future."
Zhou Gu sighed, "The roots of the Su family are in Daliang, not to mention that she plans to establish an alliance with the prince throughout her lifetime. Neither party wants to break this line, so the Su family staying in Daliang will be a continuous bridge."
King Nan Chu nodded and sighed, "It's hard for her."
