The Way of the National Teacher

Chu Li subconsciously looked at Helian Kuo.

Helian Kuo patted her hand, signaling her to be at ease.

But Chu Li couldn't be at ease at all. She thought that Empress Helian kept asking about the origin of Hongxin Bodhi that day, presumably to find out her daughter.So what now?Does Empress Helian know whose Red Heart Bodhi belongs to?

She was worried in her heart, not knowing whether she would say it or not if Queen Helian asked her.After all, this queen is the mother of the senior sister.And Helian Kuo seemed very repulsed to admit her.

When they entered the queen's bedroom and saw the queen reclining on the bed, after Chu Li saluted, Queen Helian waved everyone away.This made Chu Li feel even worse.

"The white jade hairpin that I rewarded you at the beginning, did you give it to your senior sister Helian?" Empress Helian was lazy, and Chu Li was shocked again, knowing that it was natural that he couldn't hide it, so he had to say, "Yes. "

Empress Helian looked at her, "Your senior sister is seriously ill, do you know?"

Chu Li nodded, "Wei Chen has been looking for a cure."

"Oh?" Helian looked at her now, "Did you find it?"

Chu Li showed embarrassment.

"In that case, you don't need to waste any more effort." Empress Helian said, "Because I'm not feeling well, I want to go to the Celestial Master Dojo to clean up. Let the Crown Princess go with me."

Chu Li carefully said, "Your Majesty can just make an order, but Senior Sister is the Crown Princess of the Southern Dynasty, so is this not appropriate?"

"That's why I want you to be a lobbyist." Empress Helian said, "I have heard about the eloquence of the national teacher. I wonder if the national teacher can do this?"

"..." Dare to wait here, Chu Li thought, if the two of you have nothing to do with each other, He Lianyu would follow along under Daoyi's order, but there is such an ulterior relationship in private, the senior sister will definitely not yes.How dare Chu Li respond!

Empress Helian smiled lightly, "The national teacher is also going together."

Chu Li was stunned.

When I went back and told Helian Kuo about it, Helian Kuo didn't respond, but said, "Since it's Queen Wei's order, we naturally can't disobey it."

"But in this way, why don't we leave here?"

He Lianqiu said, "There is no foundation in the original, it's okay to throw it away. Besides, the Tianshi Dojo is not far from here, after all, it is still under the nose of Emperor Wei."

Unexpectedly, before they left, Wuluo Hou Guoyuan sent envoys to pay homage.Wuluohou Kingdom is far in the northern part of the difficult water basin. Its soil is wet, foggy and cold. In winter, the people wear the ground as a house, and there are grass and livestock for all kinds of things. It is a very remote and backward small country.Hearing that the queen was seriously ill, he offered advice, "Blessed by the God of the Daze Grassland, all diseases will disappear. As long as you find the God of the Grassland, the Queen will be in good health."

Empress Helian has been in poor health for more than ten years. After hearing this, Emperor Wei sent the national teacher to the Daze Grassland to find the God of the Grassland.

Chu Li was helpless.

The envoy also said, "The Daze Grassland is the birthplace of the Tuoba clan, and you must have the blood of the Tuoba clan to find it."

Emperor Wei thought for a while, and then announced Princess Shanggu, "Princess Shanggu is very close to the teacher of the state, and she is also my Great Princess Wei, so this trip is justified."

Unexpectedly, he and He Lianfeng were separated like this.Chu Li was a little worried, would He Lianzhen really follow Queen Helian to clean up?However, her trip was imminent, and Helian Kuo saw her off, Chu Li said, "Senior Sister, it's good for your body if you go to Qingxiu, take care of yourself."

"I won't go." He Lianzhen shook his head and smiled again, "Li'er, you don't have to worry about me, just rest assured. Don't forget, I am still the Crown Princess of the Southern Dynasty."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Back to the Southern Dynasties."

Chu Li frowned, "Since you cheated with the prince of the Southern Dynasty, why did you go back? Besides, I can see that the prince really cares about you and is violent. What if he uses force on you?"

Helian Kuo smiled, "Why, are you worried about me?"

Chu Li was startled, "A little bit."

"Don't worry, he won't get close to me." He Liankuo squeezed her fingers, "It's you, pay more attention to safety along the way. Don't act recklessly!"

Under the eaves, he had to bow his head, and Chu Li couldn't resist the order.Then he and Princess Shanggu embarked on a journey to the Daze Grassland.

Little did he know that on the day she left, He Lianxuan asked Emperor Wei to resign, "I have lived in Wei for a long time, and I miss the prince, please resign and return to the court."

Naturally, Emperor Wei had no reason to stop him, so he ordered Cui Hao to lead people to escort He Lianqi back to the Southern Dynasty.

Chu Li was depressed all the way, her original plan was in full swing, but now she was suddenly disrupted by this unexpected trip.I felt that if I came back again, everything would be even more difficult.

Since Princess Shanggu came back to the palace, she knew that Helian Kuo lived in her house, and the case of Gao Pinggong was really involved, so she didn't dare to act rashly. several times.

This time it was two people walking together again, Princess Shanggu let out a long breath after leaving the palace, she never wanted to hang around outside for a long time, she actually found life in the palace more and more difficult.Looking at the national teacher Chu Li now, he is more pleasing to the eye than before.

Chu Li's eyes were heavy and his heart was heavy. Even though he was reluctant in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. He was also very polite to Princess Shanggu.

"The national teacher is in a bad mood recently?" What kind of person is Princess Shanggu, and Chu Li concealed it so well, she can see the clues.Chu Li was stunned for a moment, but before she could answer, Princess Shanggu teased, "Speaking of which, Elder Sister Shi is getting farther and farther away from the National Teacher. We are going to the extreme north, and the princess is going to the extreme south. Even I miss it a little. "

After being told by Princess Shanggu, Chu Li felt that this was the case.It turned out that I was depressed not only because my plan was disrupted, but more importantly, my senior sister was no longer by my side.After listening to her, Chu Li sighed deeply, "Gathering less and leaving more, love is deep and relationship is shallow. Worry hurts people."

Princess Shanggu laughed, "Sister Shi is now the Crown Princess of the Southern Dynasty—"

Chu Li interrupted her, "Princess, don't joke, the more you talk, the more unpleasant you will be."

"Huh?" Princess Shanggu was stunned for a moment, "Why doesn't the national teacher call him Qu Di? Now he is traveling outside, no more than in the palace, what are you doing restraining these things!"

Chu Li paused, and smiled, "I have stayed in Pingcheng for a long time, and I have changed my habits. Qu Di, I didn't expect that you and I would have the opportunity to travel together again. It is also rare."

"It's really fate!" Princess Shanggu blinked and smiled, leaping and galloping. Chu Li had just learned how to ride a horse not long ago, so he didn't dare to be presumptuous.

"Daze Grassland is not far from Pingcheng," Princess Shanggu said back, "according to our pace, we will arrive in about half a month."

The journey was safe, and they soon entered the Daze Grassland, but to their surprise, there was a lotus pond where they stayed. In mid-autumn, the pond was full of lotus flowers, which can be described as a wonderful sight.

Princess Shanggu sighed, "It's a pity that the prince didn't come, otherwise he must be very happy."

"Prince?"

"Well, the prince's younger brother has always loved lotus," Princess Shanggu said, "he believes in Buddhism, saying that lotus is a sacred object of Buddhism, so he loves it very much. Outside the prince's palace, there is a pond of lotus."

Chu Li thought about it, and smiled casually, "No wonder I saw a lotus embroidered on the collar of the emperor's grandson that day, and thought that all your royal clothes are like that."

"Haha, the whole country knows that the prince is devout and Buddhist, and everyone in the palace knows that he loves lotus. As the prince, the emperor's brother can't use the things he uses." Princess Shanggu laughed, "There is no written word in the palace. According to the regulations, the lotus can only be used by the prince. Even the badges on the prince's house are engraved with lotus flowers."

Chu Li's eyes sank, and he said with a half-smile, "It's really interesting."
