4, Chapter 4

The King of Chu became a monk, but he let her live in the Prince of Chu's Mansion. The Queen Mother really knew how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Perhaps in the near future, the Prince of Chu's Mansion is expected to be transformed into a Sifang Pavilion.

Running around for days is really tiring, so it’s better to take a rest first. Besides, without the protection of the officials from the country, it would be difficult to get out of the border of Tiansui. The princess quickly accepted this good proposal, put herself in a good mood, and walked happily with Chuochao.

He boarded the chariot again and headed all the way to the Prince of Chu's Mansion.

The great kingdom of Shangbang is the great kingdom of Shangbang. Ever since entering the Pass, the princess has been amazed by the magnificent scenery along the way. Now that she has entered the capital, she feels even more pitifully small.

Tiansui is rich and prosperous, just as described in the book, with restaurants and wine shops lined up in rows. Canopies and lanterns are hung on the cornices stacked one above the other. Cars and horses pass underneath, and the roar of people can be heard.

You can also see beauties flying in the air, girls wearing heavy makeup and gorgeous dresses.

"Chuo Chuo, I seem to have been here in my dream." The princess said happily while lying at the window, "The people here are very rich and very leisurely."

Chuochuo clicked his tongue, "It would be pretty good if we didn't come from Shanshan Country, picked a face to do business, and took root from then on."

Isn't it? The princess likes the flowers here. She used to think that being quiet means great beauty, but she didn't expect that after seeing the carved beams and painted buildings, the richness and abundance are even more desirable.

The inner city of Tiansui became more and more prosperous as we walked. Overpasses were built between the tall buildings on both sides of the road. Looking up from below, the sky was compressed into a narrow line by the dark wooden oak structures on both sides. A woman wearing a shawl walked overhead.

After a while, the gauze was blown up by the wind, and its two ends fluttered high, like the flying sky in the mural at any time.

The princess was excited and unexpectedly heard someone whistling. Chuochuo was startled and hurriedly dragged the princess back and lowered the branch window.

"Your Highness, you should be careful. I don't know how long the efficacy of the Saha Ring will last. The men in the Tiansui Kingdom are so scary, as if they want to eat people... If the King of Chu is the same, then Your Highness doesn't have to do anything and stand still.

In front of him, he voluntarily returned to secular life?"

Chuo Chuo thought that things were relatively simple. The princess thought, "That's not necessarily true. After all, he is a big shot. Big shots are very principled. It shouldn't be enough just to stand. At least you have to smile."

The master and servant were amused by their imaginations, covering their mouths and teasing merrily.

But this country is really big. The palace of King Chu is actually worth the size of King Shanshan! When the princess stepped onto the grounds of King Chu’s palace, she was intimidated by the tall and majestic gate tower of the palace. She turned to look at the envoy and said, "I really

I don’t understand why King Chu wants to become a monk.”

I have money, status, and a big family. I can't think of it anymore, so I plan to eat fast and meditate.

The envoy smiled reservedly, "Maybe it's because I couldn't meet the right person, so I lost interest in this world of mortals."

The gate of the palace was wide open, and two teams of maids in green and half-armored clothes came out to greet him. When they saw the person, they looked down deeply, with their collars half-covered, and when they glanced down, it was really spectacular.

All the women in the palace were like this, but they still couldn't keep King Chu. It can be seen that this King of Chu was a mountain that was difficult to climb. The princess's self-confidence was quickly extinguished. She felt that difficulties did not necessarily need to be overcome, so she tried to adapt to it.

All worries will be solved.

The princess walked into the Prince of Chu's Mansion with peace of mind, planning to stay here for a few days and return to Shanshan when the time was right.

"Is His Royal Highness the King of Chu a monk at Bodhidharma Temple? You don't usually go back to live in your hometown, right?" The princess stood in the courtyard and looked around. There was a large redbud tree planted in the center of the courtyard, which was more than three feet high. It was in the flowering season, and one tree

The flowers are blooming vigorously and lively, and within the scope of the branches, the ground is covered with dazzling flowers. There are flowers and trees, and the tall buildings and mansions are also said to be very sentimental.

The envoy felt calm now. He tucked up his sleeves and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu is a royal family. If the court encounters a problem that is difficult to solve, he will still return to the city. The Buddha's nature is so kind that he can relieve the suffering of all living beings.

The duty of a monk."

"The country is peaceful with singing and dancing. I think the peace is very peaceful." The princess smiled and said with splayed eyebrows, "I beg your envoy to report back to the Queen Mother. It is inconvenient to stay for a long time in the misty rain. I will go back in three to five days. When I go back, I will definitely tell the people of Shanshan

We should vigorously praise the demeanor of a great country and strive to promote trade between the two countries."

After hearing this, the envoy showed a look of embarrassment on his face, "Your Highness is a smart man, and I will not speak secretly in front of people who are wise. Previously, the Queen Mother sent an internal servant to bring Ouchi's intention..."

The princess's heart slowly rose, "What does Ouchi mean?"

The envoy thought for a while and said: "What Ouchi means is that Her Highness the Princess has come all the way, and Her Highness cannot go in vain. Ouchi likes His Highness very much and sincerely hopes that Your Highness will become the princess of our empire... You can return to secular life after becoming a monk, as long as you

Your Highness has profound martial arts, so why worry about His Highness the King of Chu not being attached to the mortal world."

The princess was suddenly speechless. She thought that the great country in the country was really open-minded and felt that nothing in the world was irreversible. As long as you are willing, everything is possible.

The princess sighed and put on a smile, "What do you mean by your country's authority, let me seduce a monk? Although our Shanshan is an inconspicuous small country, our dignity cannot be trampled upon like this!"

The envoy hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, no, please don't misunderstand, Princess. It's really because the civil and military forces of the whole dynasty were helpless that I asked Your Highness to help. Your Highness listened to what I said, since the person is already in heaven, Your Highness, as a concubine,

, there is no way to go back. If His Highness is unwilling to restore King Chu, then other princes, Your Highness will be willing to give in?"

This is a business that you don’t have to think about to know that you will lose all your money. If you flatter the King of Chu, you can still earn the title of princess. If it were another prince, marrying the concubine might not be feasible. The princess really has to give

She became a bed-warming concubine.

The princess accepted her fate, clasped her hands and said seriously: "I thought about it, it is a great merit to be able to persuade people to regain their ambition and serve the country. Then I will try my best. When will His Royal Highness the King of Chu return to the court?

, please let me know in advance."

The envoy smiled happily and said, "I am sure. Your Highness the Princess will wait for the news from me. Everything in the Palace of Chu is the best. Your Highness will definitely be at home in the Palace. If there is anything you don't like, please tell Official Xi directly.

Everyone in the palace will definitely do their best to cooperate so that His Highness will have no worries."

After the envoy finished speaking, he hugged his banner and staggered back to the imperial city to resume his duties. The princess and her servants were left without knowing where to go.

Fortunately, Guan Xi quickly stepped forward to respond, bowed his head to the princess and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Huan, is responsible for all trivial matters in the palace. If your Highness has anything to do, just give your orders, and I will do everything you can."

The princess breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the official Xi. She originally thought that all the people in charge of the palace were men, but she didn't expect that she was actually a woman.

"Then I will rely on Xi Guan from now on." Seeing her lowering her head, the princess asked with a smile, "Why doesn't Xi Guan look at me?"

The beauty pales in comparison, and Xi Guan is also a woman after all. As early as when the princess entered the palace, she caught sight of her. She had always heard that Xi people were beautiful, and she had seen several concubines of princes and princes in their visits to various palaces.

Although she is beautiful, she is not actually that stunning. However, this princess is different and genuine. She seems to have all the wonders of Shanshan Kingdom in one body. Even if you are not a wok person, you will be impressed by her charm and all kinds of charm.

.

Xi Guan raised his eyes and smiled in shock, "His Royal Highness is so beautiful that no one dares to look directly at him."

The princess was not very aware of her own beauty. She had seen this face for seventeen years. She woke up every morning with disheveled hair. She didn't think it looked very good until she dressed up properly.

Chuo Chuo was more concerned about food and accommodation. He saluted Xi Guan and said, "How will your mansion arrange food and accommodation for me?"

Xi Guan said "Oh", "Your Highness has already prepared a bedroom for His Highness. The bedroom is located high up, has excellent feng shui, and has a wide view. Please come with me, Your Highness."

A group of people followed Xi Guan towards an exquisite pavilion. Before stepping on the steps, Xi Guan turned around and smiled at the people behind him, "I have arranged other accommodation for the people brought by His Highness. This building was originally for Chu."

It is used by His Majesty the King for sleeping and sleeping. Even people in the palace would not dare to set foot here casually."

Everyone immediately stopped, and the maids on the side came up to guide the way. The princess's entourage turned a corner and was taken elsewhere.

Chuochuo still helped the princess to climb the building. The building was really majestic. As he walked, Xi Guan said: "Since His Royal Highness the King of Chu has been obsessed with Buddhism, he has traveled abroad for most of the year. Later, he studied Buddhism with Master Wuzhen at Bodhidharma Temple.

I simply won’t go back to the palace. I think that if Your Highness can live in the building, I might be able to use His Highness’ luck to influence His Highness the King of Chu.”

Ever since the envoy arrived at Shanshan and persuaded the king to give up the princess, the king of Chu had been with her throughout her three-month journey. Only now that she had walked into his mansion and moved into his dormitory, she suddenly realized

, my understanding of him is limited to the fact that he is a man and a wok maker.

For a general who wields swords and swords, there is basically no need to pursue his appearance anyway. He has eyes like an eagle, a nose and a beard, and the worst is like this. The princess decided to ask some urgent questions, "I wonder what the name of His Highness the King of Chu is? How old is this year?"

Guan Xi held his sleeves and led the princess into a gold-carved straight-lattice door. He said, "Didn't your Majesty the envoy inform His Highness? The surname of the Shangguo country is Xiao, and His Highness the King of Chu has a single name with a single character, and the small character is long."

, I will be twenty-four this spring.”

Twenty-four years old, he is indeed not too young. He spent his youth on the battlefield, and when he was old, he quit the court and became a monk. The killings in the first half of his life were made up for by the practice in the second half of his life. The ups and downs lasted a lifetime. Maybe this King of Chu really had

A transcendent heart.

"Xiao Sui, Xiao Changliu..." the princess murmured, walking around in the bedroom covered with golden lichen, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu's name is quite unique."

Xi Guan said yes, "His Royal Highness's biological mother is from the Liu family in Changshan. Changshan is thousands of miles away from the capital. Concubine Liu missed her hometown, so she named His Highness Changliu."

Therefore, there are many people in the harem of the emperor of the great country. The princess thought that King Chu was born to the Queen Mother, but it turned out that he was not.

After Xi Guan said this, he bowed to the princess and said, "Your Highness has been working hard all the way, so please take a good rest. Your Majesty will order some fruits and snacks to be sent to you later. When it's dinner time, the meals will be delivered to Your Highness's bedroom."

Chuochuo sent the person outside the door and waited for Xi Guan to go away step by step. He turned around and leaned on the railing to look out, "This great country is better than I imagined. Your Highness, look at that white spire. Is His Royal Highness the King of Chu a monk?"

Bodhidharma Temple?”

The princess kicked off her shoes and fell on the bed. There was a refreshing aroma filling the pillow and mat. This kind of incense was not found in the country. After taking a deep breath, sleep came over her.

"Whatever, don't bother me if it's important. Wait until I wake up." The princess muttered, hugging the pillow.
