"Your Majesty!"
Jiang Yunzhou bowed his hands in a respectful manner.
He didn't want to have any grudges with the Duke of Zhen, after all, he was a genuine master of the life and death realm, one of the top ten in the Qilin combat power list, and he would still be his grandson-in-law in the future, so it would be better if we could help each other. Fight each other.
Although this person in the original book is also a scheming person, and he has used any means to seek stability for his family, but in the face of national justice, he can indeed serve the country wholeheartedly. In the final rebellion, if he had not killed his relatives for the sake of justice, he would have vigorously blocked Xiao Mo and his family. Chu Xiaoqing's conspiracy is afraid that the Jin Dynasty may be overthrown.
"Alas, this is the invitation to the Qilin Magi Association created by Ji Hong, the youngest son of the veteran minister."
There was actually a hint of embarrassment on Zhen Guo Gong's face. He handed an invitation to Jiang Yunzhou and said with a smile:
"He heard that His Highness showed great power at the Autumn Hunting Night Banquet and admired him very much. He specifically asked me to deliver this letter to His Highness personally. He also asked His Highness the King of Qin to pay tribute and come to the house to tell it."
The original book also mentioned that the Duke of Zhen was very doting on his youngest son Chu Jihong. Now it seems that this is true. Jiang Yunzhou took the invitation with both hands and said with a smile: "I will definitely attend the appointment on time."
When the Duke of Zhenguo saw Jiang Yunzhou accept the invitation, he bowed his hands with satisfaction and walked out side by side with Jiang Yunzhou.
"Congratulations to Your Highness. In the past hundred years, Your Highness is the first prince to obtain the title of prince with a spirit body of the fourth element." Zhen Guogong said with emotion as he walked.
Jiang Yunzhou said modestly: "It's just a fluke that I owe you the glory of the First Emperor."
"Oh? Is that holy magic really done by the First Emperor?"
Duke Zhenguo's smile was a bit strange.
Jiang Yunzhou smiled: "What does the Duke think?"
"Hahaha…"
The Duke of Zhen Guo laughed loudly, then suddenly suppressed his smile, looked up at the sky where there was some snow again, and said slowly: "The wind and snow are coming, and I have to find a roof to avoid the snow in advance. Although Prince Yu has some shortcomings, , but for now it is the best choice, what do you think, Your Highness?"
Jiang Yunzhou looked at King Yu's retreating figure and shook his head: "I'm just afraid that the roof you chose is leaking."
As he said this, he bowed his hands to the Duke of Zhen and said, "Junior, please take your leave first."
The Duke of Zhen Guo nodded slightly and stared at Jiang Yunzhou's back with hesitation in his eyes. He didn't turn around until he disappeared at the end of the corridor.
…
Zhenguo Gongfu, Yaxin Pavilion.
The sky was bright and the house was still quiet. The sounds of servants getting up early to tidy up the courtyard could be heard sporadically.
Chu Xiaoqing was leaning against the window edge of the study room, the book in her hand was tilted, and her beautiful eyes were looking out the window, lost in thought.
Xiaodie carried the copper pot to the couch table and poured water while muttering: "Little Master, Master Qi is using you as a gimmick again to hold that meeting of wise men."
Chu Xiaoqing turned her head to straighten the messy books and said warmly: "Uncle Qi is originally from Qilin Pavilion, so why use me as a gimmick? He just sees me always hiding in the room and wants me to be lively."
"But the young master obviously doesn't like it..."
Xiaodie muttered dissatisfiedly, and handed a cup of hot tea to Chu Xiaoqing, and then suddenly her eyes lit up: "Little Master, the latest Qilin Ranking came out yesterday, and my uncle has entered the top ten of the Qilin Talent Ranking! What do you think? , will he come this time?"
"Uncle?"
Chu Xiaoqing was slightly startled, and there was a strange look on her indifferent face, and she spat softly: "What kind of uncle? I call you Your Highness Ninth Prince."
"It turned out to be my uncle..." Xiaodie stuck out her tongue and muttered in a low voice.
Da da da…
At this time, there was a crisp sound of footsteps outside the door. When Xiaodie heard the sound, she immediately put down the objects in her hands, ran to the door and opened the door:
"Hail, madam."
Chu Xiaoqing then got off the bed and bowed to the visitor: "I have met my mother."
Mother Chu nodded slightly, sent Xiaodie back, sat on the warm couch, and looked at Chu Xiaoqing: "The wedding date between you and His Highness Ninth Prince has been set. The initial date is the twenty-eighth day of the winter lunar month, the wedding day. It will be February 16th after the new year, which is a very good day."
"Thank you, mother, my daughter knows." Chu Xiaoqing replied indifferently, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of hot tea for Chu's mother.
Chu's mother took a sip of tea and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your grandfather has greatly changed his opinion of His Highness Ninth Prince after this night banquet. You can get along with him peacefully in the future without thinking too much."
"Yes." Chu Xiaoqing lowered her eyes and responded, lowering her head and not continuing to speak.
Mother Chu was not surprised by this and continued:
"This time, His Highness Ninth Prince will be coming to this gathering of wise men held by your Seventh Uncle. My mother has an important matter for you."
Chu Xiaoqing raised her eyes and kept her eyes down, packing the table and tea sets: "Just give me instructions, mother."
With that said, Chu's mother took out a half-palm-sized red jade box from her sleeve. She opened the box and pushed it in front of Chu Xiaoqing: "I need you to let His Highness Ninth take this spiritual Gu."
There were two red pills the size of rice grains placed in the box. Chu Xiaoqing raised her head in surprise, showing a trace of confusion.
Chu's mother explained: "Don't worry, this Gu will not harm him. It only lasts for a quarter of an hour and will not be discovered by anyone in the palace. We just want to use this party to find out his secret."
Chu Xiaoqing replied: "What does a mother need her daughter to do?"
Chu's mother stared at Chu Xiaoqing's eyes closely: "This spiritual voodoo is transformed from the love voodoo. Within a moment, you can let him answer your questions truthfully. He will not make any lies. This voodoo is very rare, and it has There are some special ways of doing this, and they need to be communicated through lips and tongues, so you should use them with caution."
"Huh?" Chu Xiaoqing's big eyes suddenly widened a bit.
"Sooner or later, you two will become husband and wife. Thinking about it, this is not a violation of the rules..."
Chu's mother took Chu Xiaoqing's hands and said solemnly: "The ninth prince's seventh-grade spiritual art this time is too weird. If you can't figure out the reason, it will be difficult for the young master to deduce future plans. This step is very important, Qing'er, you... "
Chu Xiaoqing interrupted: "Mother, my daughter is willing to give it a try, but... His Highness Ninth Prince is not as obsessed with me as you think, and my daughter cannot guarantee that she will succeed."
"It doesn't matter. I believe that no man in the world can resist you. Just do your best. I have confidence in you!" Mother Chu said with a soft smile.
Later, after Chu's mother explained how to use spiritual Gu, she exited the study.
Chu Xiaoqing was left staring at the red jade box in a daze. After hesitating, she saw a faint blush rising from her cheeks.
After a long time, she sighed: "Hey... lip to tongue, what should we do..."
