Chapter 105 - Emperor Chu Nan
Seeing that Mu Ziyan was listening with great interest, Chu Yuhuan let out a long sigh and continued, "Later, the crown prince claimed to be ill and gave up the throne to his younger brother, the current Emperor of Chu Nan, Gu Liuqing."
Mu Ziyan's mind was full of thoughts, and he always felt that he was only one step away from untangling this mess. Inexplicably, some vague fragments flashed through his mind. Could it be that the previous owner of this body was involved with the people of Chu Nanguo? After thinking about it, an answer was about to come out.
"Zi Yan, can you figure out what happens next?" Chu Yuhuan crossed his arms, looking like he was enjoying a good show.
"The fact that the prince will give up his throne shows that he has no interest in power and must have reasons to do so. His lover can lead troops to fight and seems to be very arrogant, so he must be a man! The prince's younger brother will become a virtuous person soon after his return, so he must be pretending to be stupid. To sum up, I can understand that the prince is a good sister who endures humiliation and loves her younger brother, right? That is the current Chao! Ning! Princess!" Mu Ziyan said the last four words with great certainty.
"Zi Yan is indeed very smart!" Chu Yuhuan laughed loudly, "I also learned about this from the correspondence later, so I invited her to come to Dong Chu for a small gathering, but it happened to be the time for the marriage. I originally wanted to choose a daughter from the ministers to be the county lord, but I didn't expect that this cousin would recommend herself and want to marry Nanyue."
"I'm afraid she is still thinking about her lover in her heart!" Mu Ziyan smiled rudely.
"Zi Yan, your name is really not given in vain."
"Thank you! Could you take me to meet Princess Chaoning?" This is a woman who is even more brave than Mulan. It would be a shame if I didn't meet her.
"Let's go. I'm just about to go over and say hello."
"Your Majesty, please!" Mu Ziyan followed closely behind.
Chaoning Palace, "Your Highness, the Emperor and the high priest have already arrived at the outer hall, and they have sent me to invite you out for a chat." The little palace maid said obediently.
"Got it. You go down first." A calm but slightly majestic voice sounded, shocking the little girl so much that she took a small step back nervously.
"Yes, the slaves retire."
Looking at the slightly haggard face in the mirror, Gu Qinghong revealed a bitter smile and slowly reached out to touch the corners of her eyes. She was not yet thirty years old, but her hair was already mottled. She had never lived a good day for herself in this life. So, let her do as she pleases for the rest of her life. No matter whether he was crazy or stupid, she would be responsible for the rest of his life.
Mu Ziyan would occasionally look into the inner hall, causing Chu Yuhuan to tease him, "Ziyan, you are not young and in love, how about I give you a few beauties to satisfy your craving? My cousin is already taken. Besides, even if she is not taken, you probably won't be able to control her."
"I already have someone in my heart, so Your Majesty won't bother me with any more worries." Mu Ziyan said proudly while crossing his legs, the vague figure constantly flashing in his mind.
Chu Yuhuan was about to say a few more insults to him when he saw Gu Qinghong slowly approaching from the door, so he smiled and said, "Zi Yan, the person you want to see is here."
"Your servant Mu Ziyan pays respect to Princess Chaoning!"
"Master Mu, there is no need to be so polite."
Mu Ziyan stood up and looked at Gu Qinghong, who was graceful and dignified without being arrogant or impatient. He couldn't help but respect this woman. Just as he was about to go up to her and talk to her, he suddenly got a headache as if he was hit by a hammer. He fell down on the wooden chair behind him, feeling dizzy.
"Zi Yan, what's wrong with you?" Chu Yuhuan hurriedly stepped forward and supported him.
"I'm fine... maybe I didn't sleep well last night... I'm just a little dizzy." Mu Ziyan said as he looked at Gu Qinghong's delicate face. In his mind, there was always a face overlapping with it, and an innocent voice kept echoing, "Sister... Sister..."
"Princess, have we met somewhere before?"
Even though Gu Qinghong was well-informed and could handle all kinds of situations, he still felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Mu Ziyan. After hearing his question, Gu Qinghong carefully looked at Mu Ziyan, the youngest and most blessed high priest in the Chu Kingdom in the East. After a closer look, he could not help but be surprised and said, "Now that Lord Mu said so, he looks familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen him before."
"Qing'er... Who is Qing'er to you?"
