Fast Travel System: A Happy Life

Chapter 189

Chu Qinghe was busy receiving ministers for several days, and Emperor Chu Yang began to transfer some government affairs to her and let her handle them.

She is now a veritable princess of the Kingdom of Chu.

Before Luoshui left, he arranged a meeting for Chu Qinghe and Jing Ci.

The place where the two sides meet is set at the East Palace.

Chu Qinghe was very concerned about this conversation. In order to prevent anyone from eavesdropping and leaking the news, she specially arranged the meeting place at a pavilion in the middle of the lake in the East Palace.

After all, she has been too high-profile recently, and there are many people staring at the East Palace.

...

Green veils are installed around the Huxin Pavilion. From a distance, it looks like two people are drinking tea, making friends and enjoying the beautiful scenery.

Jing Ci did not expect that Chu Qinghe would take the initiative to find him, "Princess Ronghua, don't come here without any problems."

He was a little surprised, was it his illusion?Why do you think Princess Ronghua's eyes are better?

He didn't ask rashly.

"His Royal Highness, please come and be safe." Chu Qinghe picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, signaled to Jing Ci, and then put down the teacup.

Jing Ji let out a muffled laugh, and took a sip of tea from the teacup in a polite manner, "Princess Ronghua doesn't need to be so polite. I wonder what you are looking for me today?"

Chu Qinghe glanced at the lake surface melancholy through the veil, "There is indeed something important to discuss."

"But it's okay," Jing Ji observed her for a while, and found that her eyes were indeed normal, "Princess's eyes are alright?"

"Small problem, it got better a few days ago."

Jing Ci nodded.

The two suddenly fell silent.

For a moment she didn't know where to start.

Are you willing to accept Chu State as your courtier directly?

It's not right, the tone is too tough, it seems that they are not sincere.

She carefully considered what she wanted to say, and Jing Ci patiently waited for her next words.

After a long time, Chu Qinghe sighed softly, "Prince Jing, this sounds incredible, I hope you don't take it as a joke."

When Jing Ci put away the smile on his face, he straightened his back unconsciously, and put on a dignified and serious look, "It's natural, please tell the princess directly."

Chu Qinghe lowered his eyes and stared at the swirling tea leaves in the teacup. Isn't Chu State like the tea leaves in this cup of hot tea, floating up and down and unable to find a fulcrum.

"To tell you the truth, Prince Jing, the state of Chu is not in a good place, internal and external troubles, being captured is only a temporary thing."

"So," she looked at Jing Ci expectantly, "Chu State wants to surrender to Jing State and seek asylum."

She quickly explained, "Of course, don't get me wrong, we are not relying on Jing Guo's power to keep the royal line."

She was a little lonely, and her voice couldn't help lowering, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether the royal family of Chu exists or not. The most important thing is that there are tens of thousands of people in Chu. Once there is a war, no one in Chu can resist foreign enemies." ,protect them."

Her voice was unconsciously tinged with sadness, "No matter what, the people are innocent. In the past few years, due to the struggle between the superiors in Chu State, many people have been displaced, and there are still many dead souls buried under the bridge in Songzhou."

"No matter what, the state of Chu can't protect them. I hope there are more powerful people to protect them."

Unexpectedly, the once prosperous state of Chu fell to the point where no one could use it. Chu Qinghe smiled wryly.

"Has Chu State really come this far?" Jing Ji couldn't help but feel a little sad when he heard Chu Qinghe's words.

Chu Qinghe admitted frankly, "Isn't this a fact recognized by several countries? Without Zhou's economic prosperity, without Jing's military strength, there are many treacherous ministers and villains in the court, how can Chu compete?"

She said all this flatly, which is the saddest thing.

However, she was fortunate that his father could see the situation clearly, and did not become fatuous because of the imminent subjugation of the country, and tried every means to hold the imperial power tightly in his hands.

It can be said that they can last until now and have already prepared.

Jing Ci, "I want to discuss this matter with my father."

"It's natural, then I will wait for the good news."

"Princess--"

"Princess--"

"Oh no--"

"Oh no--"

Chu Qinghe heard Qingzhu shouting loudly from a distance.

She told Qingzhu early in the morning that she was meeting with important guests today, and that no one around was allowed to approach this lake pavilion, why Qingzhu was so ignorant.

She was a little displeased, and lifted the veil with an angry face, Qingzhu knelt on the bank, still shouting "His Royal Highness."

"your Highness."

She scolded anxiously, "How unreasonable is it to be so flustered! Qingzhu, I told you not to disturb me if I have nothing to do today. I'm usually too kind to you. Did you ignore my words?"

Qing Zhu kowtowed several times, "Princess forgive me, the day before yesterday there was a military report that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince died for the country, and the Northland was broken."

"What did you say?" Chu Qinghe broke his voice because he was too excited.

She shook her head, a little unable to believe what she heard, her body shook twice, as if she was about to fall to the ground.

Her back rests on a broad chest.

Jing Ci hugged her trembling body tightly behind her, and the heat from her body was continuously transmitted to her, "Princess Ronghua? Princess Ronghua, what's wrong with you?"

Chu Qinghe muttered to herself, "Impossible, impossible, obviously..."

It seemed to be raining in the sky, and the cold raindrops fell on her cheeks. She touched her face subconsciously. It turned out that it was not the rain but her tears.

She suddenly thought of something, "Where's Luoshui? Where's Luoshui?"

As long as Luoshui didn't come back, the news might be fake, didn't it mean that the people below would fool them with fake military newspapers.

Chu Qinghe seemed to grasp the last straw.

Qingzhu's tears also flowed out, "This news was brought back by the Luoshui military division. The situation in the Northland is more serious than expected. The news of this military newspaper has been suppressed for a long time."

"If... if the Luoshui Army Division hadn't gone to the Northland in person, this news might have been suppressed in the dark corner for a longer time."

"Military division Luoshui paid for this military newspaper with his life."

At this moment, Chu Qinghe collapsed and couldn't help crying loudly. Her brother...

She couldn't believe this fact or didn't want to believe it.

They made an agreement a month ago, but they didn't expect...

And Luoshui, he just set off from the capital to the north three days ago, but now there is nothing left.

Why is God so cruel, just gave her a little hope, and then extinguished the flame of this hope with his own hands.

She wants to avenge her brother, no matter who she is, she will make him pay the price.

Chu Qinghe cried in Jing Ci's arms and almost fainted. Jing Ci hugged her helplessly, patted her on the back distressedly, and comforted her silently.

At this time, it was inappropriate for him to say anything, so he could only accompany her silently in this way.

Finally, Chu Qinghe seemed to be tired from crying, and she didn't know whether she fainted or fell asleep in Jing Ci's arms.

Jing Ji picked her up horizontally, walked outside the pavilion, and said to Qing Zhu, "Take me to the princess' bedroom."
