Chapter 176

Chu Qinghe was silent for a while, then sighed softly.

The young man was very discerning. He waited until Chu Qinghe finished sighing before continuing, "It is said that it is because he is too old and unable to do what he wants, and his reactions are not as good as before."

No, Chu Qinghe clearly remembered that the last time General Zhang led the troops to fight the barbarians was ten years ago.

Ten years have passed in a flash, and I didn't expect that the generals of Chu State are still mixed.

"Is there anything else?" Chu Qinghe felt heavy.

"Little General Gu didn't say a word last night and rushed to the battlefield overnight."

General Gu is the youngest son of Lord Gu, because he resembles his grandfather the most, and has been loved the most by his family since he was a child.

Chu Qinghe said sarcastically, "This is the only person in the huge Marquis Mansion who has inherited the title of old general."

The servant didn't dare to comment casually, "His Royal Highness asks for orders today, and volunteers to lead troops to fight in the northern region."

Still can't escape?

Chu Qinghe stood up from the couch, looking at the continuous drizzle.

Thick melancholy lingered in her heart and could not dissipate for a long time.

"Go down."

"Yes."

In this life, under her intentional or unintentional guidance, the person who recommended the prince to the battlefield last time was isolated from the court early.

Unexpectedly, her brother would take the initiative to invite Ying.

Calculating the time, the time between the two times can't be long.

Will this time be the same as last time?

She muttered to herself, and seemed to be asking the sky, "Can't it be changed?"

Qingzhu, "What do you want to give me, princess?"

"It's nothing."

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Qingzhu quickly put a cloak on Chu Qinghe and advised, "Your Highness, you should eat as soon as possible."

"I don't have an appetite today." She really has no appetite. On the one hand, she is in a bad mood, and on the other hand, the rainy days have made her depressed. She can't help but think about the worst.

Qingzhu comforted him, "Your Highness, please take care of yourself. Your stomach will feel uncomfortable again later."

Qingzhu watched her grow up and knew everything about Chu Qinghe.

Chu Qinghe turned his head to the side and took a last look at Xiao Yu, "Close the window."

He walked towards the room without looking back, "Set the meal."

"Yes."

...

Facing a large table full of dishes by himself, Chu Qinghe felt uninterested, so he braced himself and took a few mouthfuls.

"Qingzhu, I'm going to take a lunch break. The prince will wake me up immediately when he goes to court."

Qingzhu hesitated to speak, wanted to say that it would be uncomfortable to go to bed immediately after eating.

But when she remembered that the princess was in a bad mood, she couldn't say anything, so she gently supported Chu Qinghe's arm, "Servant serve the princess to rest."

Chu Qinghe soon fell asleep.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and there seemed to be signs of a heavy rain coming.

I don't know when, a strong wind blew up, and in September, the leaves of the trees in the palace fell one after another, and the palace people braved the heavy rain to clean them.

The relentless rain is not a messenger of cherishing flowers. The colorful flowers in the imperial garden withered in a scattered manner, leaving only a few lone petals standing stubbornly on it.

Everything seems to have been foreshadowed.

...

Not long after Chu Qinghe fell asleep, Chu Qinghong came over.

Qingzhu has been sitting on the footrest beside the bed in the bedroom.

Seeing a bright yellow dress outside the door, she checked the bedding and walked out of the door.

Wei Wei blessed her body, "Prince."

"How is Ah He today?" It's been raining for the past few days, maybe it's because of boredom, Chu Qinghe is clearly unhappy for days.

"Back to the prince, the princess is not in a good mood today and only had two bites of lunch."

"She knows about the previous dynasty?" When Chu Qinghong sent someone over, she thought that Chu Qinghe would definitely ask, but in fact he would still say it in the end.

"Yes."

Chu Qinghong waved her hand, "Go and watch her, I'll wait in the outer hall, don't wake her up."

"Yes." Qingzhu returned to the footrest gently.

Chu Qinghong sat on a chair in the outer hall, facing the door, listening to the sound of rain falling.

He smiled wryly, the weather is too harsh, and the soldiers in the Northland are suffering too much.

Not only that, but I was most afraid of wound ulceration and infection, and an epidemic broke out in the barracks.

Some people fought bloody battles on the front lines for this country, and some people indulged in a life of paper money and intoxication.

He is the prince of Chu State, so he naturally has to advance and retreat with the soldiers of Chu State.

...

It seemed to get dark earlier on a rainy night. Candles were lit everywhere in the hall, but Chu Qinghe's boudoir was still dark.

Chu Qinghong watched as the darkness swallowed up the light bit by bit, until the sky turned completely dark and night fell.

Chu Qinghe was full of worries and thought that she would not sleep particularly peacefully, and never thought of sleeping until evening.

She was helped up by Qing Zhu in a drowsy state, "Your Highness, the prince is waiting for you in the main hall."

She squinted her eyes, and leaned weakly on Qing Zhu, Qing Zhu fed her two mouthfuls of warm water to ease the discomfort in her throat, "What time is it?"

"Back to the princess, Youshi."

"Hel me up and change."

When Chu Qinghe came out after changing his clothes, he saw Chu Qinghong sitting in the main hall holding a cup of hot tea.

"Brother," his voice was weak and sounded like he had just woken up.

Chu Qinghong raised her hand to support her sleeves and placed her on the stool next to him, then turned her head and said to Qingzhu, "Chuan Shan."

Qingzhu took the order to retreat.

Chu Qinghong poured a cup of hot tea for Chu Qinghe, held it in her hand, and warned, "Be careful of the scalding."

Chu Qinghe lowered her head and took a small sip.

"Are you still angry with your brother?" Chu Qinghong stared at Chu Qinghe's movements without blinking.

Chu Qinghe gracefully put the lid on the tea, and put the teacup on the cup holder, "No," her dark eyes were as deep as stars, reflecting Chu Qinghong's small figure at this time, "If I am in this location, will make the same choice.”

In order to reassure Chu Qinghong, she pulled out a smile with difficulty, "Since we have enjoyed the worship of Wanmin, we naturally have to do something for them."

Chu Qinghong had a lot of emotions, "My sister has grown up." She also endured too much.

Sorry for not giving her a stable capital.

There is only one glorious title.

"Brother, just do these things and Princess Ronghua will be happy every day." Chu Qinghong said with a smile.

Chu Qinghe did not refute, "Thank you brother."

Both of them were pretending to be relaxed.

Chu Qinghong didn't want to bring up this heavy topic, so she teased, "My sister is about to die, is there a man you like?"

Chu Qinghe picks out a person from her memory, she seldom thinks of him in this world, maybe it's because of being trapped in the deep palace, she hasn't seen him yet.

She said delicately, "Brother, I'm still young, so I don't want to think about such things."

"Okay, okay, even if the little princess never gets married, my brother will always support you."

The atmosphere was finally a little relaxed.

Chu Qinghe said angrily, "Then brother has agreed, if I don't marry, you are not allowed to drive me out of the palace."

"No, you want to live in the palace all the time, and I don't object to finding someone to marry you."

"Then it's settled," Chu Qinghe stretched out his palms, "High fives are an alliance, you promised me this."

Chu Qinghong gently pressed his big palm, "It's a promise that will remain unchanged forever."

The two smiled at each other.

Qing Zhu stood outside the door, "Princess, the crown prince's dinner is ready."
