After being robbed by the prince of the enemy country

Murong poured the boiled soup into a porcelain bowl, before the heat went down, Huaizhen snatched the medicine bowl, and Dai Qin, who was a step too late, emptied it.

Murong reminded in time: "It took two hours to boil this medicine to make a bowl."

That's why Dai Qin didn't fight with Huai Zhen. After all, if he accidentally broke it, he would have to wait for another two hours, which would delay Chu Shao's time to take the medicine, otherwise he would have fought Huai Jiugu for a bowl of medicine !

Huaizhen walked into the bedroom holding the bowl of medicine, Dai Qin followed closely, but was stopped by Tu Wei with a smile before entering the hall.

Chu Shao needed to recuperate, Dai Qin couldn't let the warriors come over to fight this strong Zhongqin man, he accepted his fate and was stopped outside the palace - even though this was his palace! !

Chu Shao closed his eyes and fell asleep, and heard movement outside, struggling to get up on the bed, but his high fever has not subsided, his body is weak, and it is very difficult to get up.

A hand supported him behind his back, helped him up, and put two soft pillows on his back for him to lean on. Chu Shao was about to thank him when he looked up and saw Huai Jiugu.

His haggard face was like a dark cloud, "I thought I made my words very clear yesterday."

"Let's not talk about those things first, your body is important." Huai Zhen blew the decoction in the blowing spoon with downcast eyes, and handed it to Chu Shao's mouth. Chu Shao pursed his lips into a straight line and turned his head in resistance.

"This is the medicine prescribed by Murong. It is mild and not so bitter."

"What's in it?" Chu Shao's voice was sickly hoarse, with a cold tone.

"What?" Huai Zhen didn't understand for a while.

Chu Qingxu sneered, looking at Huai Jiugu's handsome face that was always deceiving, "Are you trying to play love Gu on me again?"

Huaizhen's heart skipped a beat, and he was caught off guard by these words, "Why do you think so?"

"Isn't this one of your plans?" Chu Shao looked coldly at his embarrassed appearance, "Murong still has a worry-eating flower in his hand. A few days before your wedding, send him to the suburbs to practice love gu. After the work is done, they will play Gu on me again and continue to play me as a fool, Si Yun told me this personally."

"Huaizhen, your abacus is really good."

"..." Huai Zhen couldn't refute it. To this day, if he concealed it again, he wanted to make Chu Shao hate him to the bone. He admitted: "I really thought about it, I even wanted to use the Love Gu You stay with me for the rest of your life...but I've completely given up on that now."

"You stopped this idea not because your conscience discovered it, but because I have escaped your control." Chu Shao saw through Huai Zhen, "Now I only have half my life left, why are you still refusing to let me go?"

Huai Zhen explained in a panic: "I'm here to save you. The wizards used strong medicine for you. They hurt you in the name of miracles..."

"You don't need to tell the right and wrong." Chu Shao interrupted him, his heart was like a mirror, "I know better than you that the wizard's medicine can cure the symptoms but not the root cause, but I didn't want to live too long, so I don't need it." You come and save me."

Huai Zhen was heartbroken, and almost forgot that the two times he "killed" Chu Shao, it was Chu Shao who chose his own way of death. He already had a death wish in his heart, and without the Love Gu, he no longer has much interest in this world. Nostalgic.

Dai Qin at the door could also hear these words clearly.

It was as if cold water had been poured on him, and yesterday he plausibly told Huaizhen that he had an unusual position in Chu Shao's heart.

He thought that although he couldn't compare with Zhongqin's emperor in everything, at least Chu Shao was happy by his side.

It turned out that everything was an illusion, Chu Shao didn't want to live long at all, he was the cloud in the sky, Dai Qin thought he was holding the cloud, but the cloud kept leaving him without a sound.

No one can catch it, he can't catch it, and neither can Huaizhen.

"The medicine is cold." After a long time, Huai Jiugu broke the silence and said humbly, "Take a sip, I beg you."

Chu Shao turned his head away, and he coughed twice, hearing it in Huai Zhen's ears, as if two holes had been punched in his heart.

"Don't you want to know about Si Yun's recent situation?" Huai Zhen had no choice but to use the method of equivalent exchange to win Chu Shao's patience.

"He was seriously injured that night, so you don't care at all?"

Chu Shao's expression moved slightly, he clenched his hands into fists, and finally turned his head around, looking at Shang Huaiu Gu with a gentle smile.

"Drink the medicine obediently, and I'll tell you."

The slightly cold medicinal juice was sent to Chu Shao's mouth. Chu Shao had been ill for a long time and became a doctor. Just by the taste, he could tell that the medicinal juice was indeed much milder than the one he drank in the previous month.

Huai Zhen begged pitifully: "For Si Yun's sake, why don't you have a drink?"

"..." Chu Shao glared at him, but finally opened his mouth and drank the concoction. Huai Jiu frowned, and scooped up another spoonful non-stop.

If there is one, there will be two, and the medicine will soon see the bottom.

There was still some medicinal juice on Chu Shao's mouth, Huai Zhen wiped it off with his thumb, Chu Qingxu glared at him as if his hair had exploded, and if it wasn't for his weakness, he would have punched him long ago.

"Say it!"

Huai Zhen put down the medicine bowl and said, "Si Yun is fine, now he is raised in the mansion in Kyoto, and Murong takes good care of him."

Seeing that Chu Shao's eyes softened, Huai Jiugu continued: "He can talk now, and he keeps talking about you every day."

"He is loyal to you. I admire him for that. Even if it's for Si Yun, you should go back to Zhongqin to have a look."

Chu Shao felt more at ease, he ignored Huai Zhen, grabbed the quilt, lay down again, turned his back to Huai Jiugu, and drove away the passengers in a muffled voice, "I'm going to sleep."

Huai Zhen was helpless, but it was a good beginning, at least he didn't want him to get out like yesterday.

Satisfied, he picked up the medicine bowl and shook the empty bowl towards Dai Qin at the door, showing off that Chu Shao drank the medicine he gave him. Dai Qin clenched his fists tightly, but there was nothing he could do!

For the next few days, Huai Zhen used the same trick to coax Chu Shao to drink the medicine.

Chu Shao valued affection, so he seized on this weakness, moved out of Si Yun from time to time to grab favors, and used Qizhou's current livelihood to coax Chu Shao to feel at ease.

"On the day you were sealed off, there was another decree sent to Qizhou. I reduced Qizhou's taxes for three years and treated Qizhou's people generously."

Murong's medicine is mild and has miraculous effects, but within three days, Chu Shao was able to drink the medicine by himself. Huaizhen didn't have the opportunity to feed the medicine, but every time he seized the time to deliver the medicine, he tried his best to do what Chu Shao liked.

"As long as you return to Zhongqin with me, I will immediately pardon all the Nanqi soldiers in the Kyoto prisoner-of-war camp, and let them go back to reunite with their wives and children, and live a good life again."

When mentioning the prisoner-of-war camp, Chu Shao thought of the tormented number one archer of Nanqi, and the lunatic who used to live next door to him.

After the Love Gu failed, he remembered that that lunatic was his former subordinate, and before Nanqi's subjugation, he was also a fourth-rank general.

After being captured, he was suddenly driven crazy.

In fact, Zhongqin cannot be blamed for this, because Nanqi treated Zhongqin's prisoners of war equally cruelly.

Most of the prisoners of war who can be captured alive and locked up are generals with some status or achievements. They have more or less hundreds of enemy lives on their hands, so once they are captured, they will be retaliated by the enemy's monarch. May get preferential treatment.

This can be regarded as national hatred and family hatred, which cannot be let go easily.

But now Huaizhen said that they can be let go.

"I can even reappoint your father's title, clarify his reputation behind him, and revitalize Qizhou Anninghou Mansion. If you want to go back to Qizhou's hometown, I can also accompany you back every year for a short period of time."

Huaizhen held Chu Shao's hand, "Qingxu, the whole Qizhou will receive preferential treatment because of you. The people you once protected and your former subordinates will all be protected by you. I can use my power to let You have truly become a miracle for the people of Qizhou, and you can be their way of salvation."

"And all of this can be realized as long as you promise to be my queen."

Huaizhen thought, I will save the people, you will save me.

What a tempting condition, if Chu Shao had made the request on the day he jumped off the tower a year ago, he might have really agreed.

It's not that he can't accept being defeated, and it's not that he can't bow his head and admit defeat. When Nanqi fell, if Huaizhen could negotiate terms with him openly and let him trade himself for the peace of the people, Chu Shao would obey.

But now, with the humiliation and deceit of the past year vividly in his mind, Chu Shao couldn't believe Huai Zhen's words at all. His promise was not worth as much as horse dung on the grassland.

In the matter of deceiving feelings, Huai Jiugu is a master, but Chu Shao is an out-and-out loser.

Not letting himself fall into that trap again, he coolly pokes through the rosy facade of these promises.

"Wei Yong is fatuous and immoral, so he should be killed, but the two emperors of Wei's ancestors were kind to our Chu family. My father swore to die for Nanqi. He will respect Zhongqin's title and fame after death."

"If you favor Qizhou, you will be impeached by the ministers."

"How will you explain to Zhongqin's soldiers when you release the prisoners of war?"

"Huai Jiugu, you have witnessed the bloody and cruelty on the battlefield with your own eyes, and you know that the hatred of the country and the family cannot be wiped out with one or two imperial edicts."

Chu Qingxu said disdainfully: "You don't have to trample on the loyalty of your soldiers just to make me happy. Even if Nanqi's soldiers are captured, they still have their own pride. In the past, you tricked me into being in front of Nanqi's officials. I knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times to bow down to you, and today you want to use my name to show favor to them, just to let them, and me, be grateful to you."

Huai Zhen argued: "How do you know that I won't risk the disgrace of the world for you?!"

Chu Shao seemed to have heard some joke, he looked at Huaizhen's more serious expression jokingly, "I am in your heart, but I am no better than Wen Rongyu, but you say you want to risk the world's displeasure for me?"

"I can explain everything that happened that day! I was sure to save the two of you that night, I was just weighing the pros and cons...I..."

"The result of your weighing the pros and cons is sacrificing me."

Chu Shao interrupted his refutation, calm and calm, "You made the choice in the first place because of your own reasons. I don't blame you. I also believe that with your power, you will definitely be able to fulfill the promises just now."

"But if you really do this, how will the people of Zhongqin treat you? One day, the officials will ask you to kill me to complain about the common people. I don't think I have the slightest bit to compare with your imperial power. Instead of being sacrificed by you again, It's better to break it cleanly now."

Huaizhen didn't know that Chu Shao thought so, he said excitedly: "Even if Qin dies in the middle of the day, I will never let you come out to take the blame! I'm not Wen Dundaiqin's vain king who knows nothing!"

As long as Huaizhen thinks about it, being a tyrant or a fool is very capitalized. This is the biggest power difference between him and Wen Dundaiqin.

In terms of governing the country, Huaizhen and Daiqin are quite different.

Chu Shao knew this very well, but he looked at Huai Jiu and looked at him, deliberately poking his heart: "You compare with Dai Qin? You are not as good as him."

Huaizhen: "I...!!" A mouthful of old blood choked in his throat!

Dai Qin, who had been eavesdropping outside the hall, suddenly swelled up to the point of flying.

The author says:

Dai Qin: I really mean it! !
