Chapter 159(1/2)
Emperor Mingwen saw Chu Yunning regain his former vitality and a new light appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't help but smile.
"Oh, Chu Shanggong finally laughed."
Even Eunuch Mo looked at the smile on Chu Yunning's face, and he couldn't help but feel better: "It's been so many days, and I'm so happy to see it."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yunning said embarrassedly: "I'm so sorry, I've made you worried."
It's all her fault for being so stubborn.
On the one hand, I was too anxious, so I almost fell into Chen Bi's language trap.
She couldn't verify what Chen Bi said. What the other party said was what Chen Bi failed her trust.
Now she can only say that she is different from each other and does not plan for each other.
Since the two of them are already in a hostile relationship, there is no need to leave a memorial to the old love.
What a pity that Chu Yunning thought that in this era of power disputes, Chen Bi's indifference in fame and fortune was admirable.
Unexpectedly, once a person is infected with power, he will be out of control.
At this time, the guards came to report: "Return to the emperor, Dongling sent someone to send a letter."
Emperor Mingwen was so angry that he reached out to take it. He raised his hand and wanted to tear the letter, but Chu Yunning stopped him.
"Anning, she must be confusing the public and deliberately plotting against you."
He didn't expect Chu Yunning to be depressed if he saw something he shouldn't see again, so he would rather not look at it.
Chu Yunning smiled slightly, "Don't worry, my elders, I will not be deceived again."
The reason why she could lie to her once was just relying on her own trust. If she had no trust, she would not pay attention to Chen Bi at all.
Emperor Mingwen could not resist Chu Yunning, so he had to hand the letter back to Chu Yunning.
After she saw the contents clearly, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but lift up. It was Chen Bi who asked her to meet her, and the location was the 30-mile station in Yangcheng.
"You can't go." After Emperor Mingwen saw the content clearly, he directly refused for her. This was not a good person at all.
After the last lesson, Emperor Mingwen was worried that Chu Yunning would be hurt again.
He can't afford to bet.
Chu Yunning curled his lips: "Your Majesty, I was accidentally last time. Chen Bi and I have been acquainted with each other, so it doesn't matter if we meet each other."
"I... go with you." If Chen Bi says something messy this time, then he will kill Chen Bi.
When Chu Yunning saw that he looked like he didn't agree, I wouldn't allow you to go, so he had no choice but to agree.
So under the arrangement of Emperor Mingwen, Chu Yunning took a carriage and rushed to the post station. The weather was very good today, with a beautiful sunshine, and even the heavy snow for several days stopped.
After one hour
Chu Yunning came to the post station again and told Emperor Mingwen not to get off the carriage for the time being. If she encounters danger, she will send a signal that she must talk to Chen Bi alone for some things.
Chen Bi sat in the inner room early and waited. Seeing her coming and greeting her with a smile, she called out to Sister Chu intimately.
Chu Yunning bent down and sat opposite Chen Bi, with a faint smile on his face: "What are you asking for me?"
"I heard that you had a serious illness a few days ago. The Emperor of Southern Duan came to question me. I couldn't leave for a while, but I was very worried about you." Chen Bi said, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chu Yunning: "But now, judging from Sister Chu's condition, it should be fine."
Chu Yunning smiled slightly: "Thank you for your concern. The emperor just thought I was stimulated by your words. In fact, I accidentally caught a cold and slept for two more days."
"Sister Chu, you're fine." Chen Bi supported her jaw with one hand, her eyes full of confusion: "According to my friendship with Sister Chu, I want to ask clearly why Sister Chu didn't block the Southern Emperor from going back? What if I encounter any dangerous things again..."
Chen Bi wants to speak but stops, and she looks like I am doing it for your own good.
Chu Yunning sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Whether there is danger or not, his identity is the lord of a country. The emperor carries all the people in his heart. In order to protect his own people, of course, he must put the interests of the people first."
"I don't understand what Sister Chu said." Chen Bi looked confused.
"Yun Lan has provoked a fight several times, and the southern end is not easy to bully. She must fight back. Wild fire cannot be burned, and the spring breeze will blew again."
Chu Yunning stared at Chen Bi's every move, and saw her pupils shrinking slightly, revealing her emotions at this moment.
Displeasure mixed with anger.
Oh!
Finally revealed his true face.
"But Sister Chu, don't you care about Emperor Nandu at all?" Chen Bi pondered for a moment, and said, "When I was in the palace, I realized that Emperor Nandu treats you differently from others. Emperor Nandu still doesn't know his future fate, so he doesn't know how to be afraid, but Sister Chu is different. If she is so indulged, will Sister Chu not regret it in the future?"
What an understanding thing, why didn’t I find it the first time? It turns out that I am clever.
"Why is Sister Chu looking at me like this?" Chen Bi's heart sank. Could it be that Chu Yunning discovered something was wrong?
No, it's impossible, I didn't reveal any flaws.
Chu Yunning picked up the teacup with his hand, handed it to his mouth and took a sip. After a long time, he said, "Why do you think the emperor will definitely listen to me?"
"As long as you say, the emperor will definitely believe you!" Chen Bi has never questioned this.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yunning chuckled.
Chen Bi smiled and said in confusion: "Sister Chu, do you have any other plans?"
"Chen Bi, according to the historical trajectory, what will your future ending? What will your finale be if the Prince of Nancheng?"
The Prince of Nancheng had a good future. He could marry a beautiful mother as soon as the war ended, and he would have lovely children in the future.
But now, the prince of Nancheng has released the banner of independence, which means rebellion.
The emperor of Dongling could not accommodate a minister like the Prince of Nancheng, who had a dissolute intention. Even the Prince of Nancheng's move today will affect the entire Prince of Nancheng's Mansion.
Too great ambition!
Chen Bi smiled confidently: "The prince is destined to follow this path. He is stationed at the border, either good or bad. As for me, it has not been recorded. It doesn't matter whether the ending is good or bad. Maybe I will die early, who knows?"
He also has the same indifferent attitude of fame and fortune as before.
Chu Yunning put his fingertips on the table and tapped gently: "If the prince did what he did today, the prince would have to bear the crime of rebellion. Didn't Chen Bi persuade the prince?"
"Sister Chu, if the emperor wants his minister to die, he has to die." Chen Bi said in his mind that the prince is different from Emperor Mingwen. The prince will conquer the throne in the future, but Emperor Mingwen will die early.
Perhaps in a few days, news of Emperor Mingwen’s death will be heard.
Chu Yunning didn't believe a word about this. She wanted to escape from the palace so desperately and successfully avoided the fate of the entire palace family raiding. How could she accompany the Prince of Nancheng to be charged with the crime of rebellion and live a frightened life?
Regardless of the authenticity of this history, Chu Yunning decided to continue to move on and no longer listen to anyone's gossip.
She recognized whether she died or lived.
"Sister Chu, after listening to my advice, it is better to take the Emperor Nanduan out of Yangcheng as soon as possible. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time."
Chen Bi looks like you are my sister, and I have only told you a few truths.
"Thank you for your kindness, I will consider this matter at my discretion." Chu Yunning did not make it clear.
"Sister Chu..."
Seeing that she was entangled, Chu Yunning asked patiently: "Since history cannot be changed, the emperor withdrew his troops at this critical moment. How to explain to the three armies and the people? If he died on the battlefield, his reputation would be left in history. Everyone would remember that there was such an emperor who devoted himself to the Southern Territory. The most important thing is that even if I persuaded the emperor to leave Yangcheng, the large army in the Southern Territory would not leave, and there would be a new commander to continue moving forward."
This is just telling Chen Bi not to dream in the daytime and let Nanduan give in to Yangcheng, whom he has won.
Chen Bi paused, and suddenly he didn't know how to explain.
"Chen Bi, you are the one next to the Prince of Nancheng. I am the Nanduan Shanggong. We two may stand opposite one day. I will come to see you today for the sake of our fellow villagers."
Chen Bi was so scared that his face turned pale: "Sister Chu, what do you mean? I have never planned to plot against you, but I really want to advise you to cherish the rest of your life."
"If you don't know what you want, Chen Bi, just leave me." Chu Yunning was too lazy to say more, she should have seen it clearly long ago.
She pretended to be sick and selfishly abandoned the Gong family, saying that she did not love the royal power and wealth, and yearned for the life of idle clouds and wild cranes.
Then why not leave at the beginning?
If she dressed like Chen Bi, she would definitely try her best to let the Gong family avoid this disaster in advance and solve innocent people.
Chu Yunning is not a Virgin. She doesn't care about the heinous crimes her relatives have committed, because her relatives do not feel ashamed of owing herself.
One code is the same, and she prefers to revenge if she has revenge.
It is better to leave the benevolence and righteousness to save the people to others.
But Chen Bi didn't choose either, but took the opportunity to change her name and surname, completely separated from the Gong family and left the southern end.
Such people are selfish at heart.
"Sister Chu!" Chen Bi panicked and hurriedly stood up and grabbed Chu Yunning's arm: "Do you have any misunderstandings about me? I have not hurt you, nor have you ever told the Emperor Nanduan that you have a bad word. After leaving the palace, you said that you would go to Shu to find you in the future. Didn't you say that you would protect me?"
Chen Bi was a little panicked, she always felt that the other party knew something.
He had already said this, and it was like a tear-down, but Chen Bi could still pretend to behave.
Such people are even more terrifying than those in the harem.
He pretends to be a little white rabbit on the surface, but in fact he waits for an opportunity to find the right time and hits it with one blow.
Chu Yunning smiled, "Chen Bi, we can no longer go back to the simple past, so let's take care of ourselves in the future."
Brushing away Chen Bi's hand, she walked towards the stairs, instinctively realizing something was wrong around her.
It seemed like there were many eyes staring at her.
