"Princess, are you going to the Nine Moons Country?" During dinner time, Hong Tan asked carefully.

"Yes, Prince came back last night, so I'll be leaving soon."

"Is the wangfei going to bring the Seven Ultimate? Otherwise, this servant will report to the prince and ask him to accompany the wangfei. "

"No guards." Your Highness has no time, just tell him when I'm gone. " The Great Clan Elder was still in the palace and with Su Ruyi's current state, Xuanyuan Zhi would definitely not be able to leave.

Hong Tan hesitated before asking in a low voice, "Before the princess leaves, don't you want to see the prince?"

"I saw it last night. Hong Tan, you go out first and let me eat a good meal." Hong Tan knew that his wife was angry, so he didn't dare go out to tell her.

After finishing her meal, Chu Qingyao did not even walk out of the main entrance. She immediately flew out of the Duke's Mansion, went to the market and picked a horse, then rushed straight to Nine Moons Country. Five days after Chu Qingyao left, Chu Yiqun's carriage entered the capital.

Looking at the tall city gate, Chu Yiqun felt like it was from another world, everything was familiar yet so unfamiliar at the same time. He didn't expect to be able to return alive. The moment the carriage entered the city, he subconsciously looked in the direction of the phase of Chu Palace. It was a place that carried his glory and glory, and he was afraid that he would never be able to return to.

This was because the imperial edict only said that he was summoned back to the capital. It did not say why. His heart was in turmoil along the way. He didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse, but he had thought it through. The worst was still worse than being tortured in the extreme north. Now that he was back, it was a good start.

Because he was summoned to the capital, the first thing Chu Yiqun did when he entered the capital was to enter the palace. After entering the palace, the eunuch who was leading the way greeted them enthusiastically, "Aiya, this isn't Chu …" "My lord?" The eunuch originally wanted to call him phase of Chu, but he felt that it was inappropriate. Chu Yiqun had long been removed from the position of prime minister and went to the extreme north.

However, the matter of Beigong Ziyuan being the Grand Princess's distant husband had long been spread throughout the palace. The Emperor had to give him a status that was comparable to a princess of another family. Don't underestimate Chu Yiqun, but he is not someone that can be offended.

Chu Yiqun felt overwhelmed from the favor and quickly said, "Eunuch is too kind. Chu Yiqun is only a sinner, he absolutely cannot afford to be called Master. If someone else were to hear it, I'm afraid it would just cause them to be speechless. "

At the same time, he was drawing his soul in his heart. The palace people were too snobbish, and he had already experienced it when he was prime minister. Today, this eunuch was somewhat abnormal. Could something really have happened to him?

The eunuch who was leading the way was always one step behind, his attitude very respectful. Chu Yiqun stopped and said, "Eunuch, do you know why the Emperor summoned me back to the capital?"

The eunuch immediately felt that a chance to curry favor had come, and said flattering, "I presume that my lord does not know yet! A few days ago, the Grand Princess of Cherokee came to look for the lord, and she even heard that she was the next son and daughter of an adult. Lord, this is a great thing. "

Chu Yiqun's body trembled, he did not know any kind of Grand Princess? Lowering his eyebrows to think, he had once had a relationship with a girl. At that time, he was still just a poor scholar. Because his family was poor, he could not raise enough money to take the exam in Shang Jing.

Later, when he arrived at the RedLuo Kingdom, he met a woman who could move his heart." The two of them found a mountain village and after half a year, the girl suddenly disappeared, leaving him with a few hundred taels of silver.

He had waited for several months, but the girl still hadn't come back. He could only take the silver and return home. After studying hard for three years, he would rush to the capital to take the exam. However, his luck was bad, he was robbed the moment he arrived in the capital. He was pestered and had nowhere to go, when he chanced upon the sister of the Minister of Rites, Han Xi Xue.

Han Xi Xue offered to help him stay in the capital, and he won first place in one fell swoop. He also felt that he had no foundation in the capital and was weak on his own. If he wanted to find a backer, he would have to marry Han Xi Xue.

Han Xi Xue directly told him that he was already unclean and that he was already two months pregnant. If he could accept all of this, the Han Family was willing to lend him a hand.

He went back and thought about it for three days. After weighing the pros and cons, he agreed to marry the Han Family's daughter. After the wedding, he had indeed gained many benefits from working for the Han Family and quickly established himself in the imperial court. Furthermore, his official position grew as time went by and he finally became Prime Minister.

The past replayed in his mind like a floating cloud. What Han Xi Xue had brought him was humiliation, and there was no point in not thinking about that woman. But this Eldest Princess, could it be her?

He unconsciously quickened his pace, and a faint sense of anticipation rose in his heart.

Although he had been gone for several years, he clearly remembered everything that had happened in the palace. including where the emperor dealt with politics, and where the palace was … When he saw that they were heading for the emperor's bedroom, he couldn't help but ask, "Eunuch, is the emperor in the imperial study?"

"The emperor is sick, wait for the lord in his bedroom."

"Then does eunuch know what kind of illness the emperor has? Is it serious?"

The eunuch who was leading the way reminded her in a low voice, "No one in the palace dares to bring up this matter. My lord has just returned, it's best not to cause trouble for it."

Chu Yiqun nodded gratefully, "Thank you for your reminder, I will not forget your kindness."

When they arrived at Xuanyuan Xiao's chambers, the eunuch reported to them and Chu Yiqun entered. When she entered, she was stunned to see the emperor sprawled on the dragon bed with the empress dowager sitting on it. Beside him was a woman brimming with an air of nobility. The woman looked familiar. He didn't dare to look anymore and could only kneel on the ground to pay his respects. "This subject, Chu Yiqun, greets the Emperor, Esteemed Empress Dowager and Empress."

"Chu Aiqing, quickly rise." The moment Xuanyuan Xiao started talking about Chu Aiqing, Beigong Ziyuan was very satisfied with it. The moment Chu Yichu entered, she immediately recognized that he was the man she longed for.

At this moment, she looked at him excitedly. This man had become skinnier and older. The vicissitudes of life on his body made her feel so much pain that she wanted to cry. If there had been no one else in the room, she would have thrown herself at him. But she remembered that this was the Tian Qiong's Imperial Palace and she also remembered that she had to act in accordance to her identity. She could only look at Chu Yiqun with a sour expression in the corner of her eyes.

With a "pa da" sound, a tear suddenly fell. She quickly raised her head so that no one would see.

"Yuan Qun, do you still remember me?" When Chu Yiqun stood up, she stood up happily.

This voice stunned Chu Yiqun. He used his eyes to look at Beigong Ziyuan, and after recognizing her for a while, he suddenly became agitated, and pointed at her without saying a word, "You … "You …"

"Yuan Qun, I'm your Ah Yuan! I've come to find you. " Beigong Ziyuan wiped the corner of his eyes, knowing that this was not the time to cry. Seeing Chu Yiqun walking towards her, she immediately turned teary and smiled, pointing to the soft couch at the side, she asked him to sit down first. "Zi Yuan being able to find my husband this time is all thanks to your majesty and the empress dowager. If there's any place where I can obtain Beigong Ziyuan from in the future, I won't decline."

She was the Grand Princess of a country, who would dare to use her! However, these words made everyone feel comfortable, so the empress dowager ordered Qing Yue to quickly help the Eldest Princess up.

"I never thought that the Grand Princess and Chu Aiqing would have such a good conversation. We must really thank the Grand Princess, and give us an excuse to recall the phase of Chu. "

Chu Yiqun's body trembled. He had not heard the name phase of Chu for a long time, it was so far away that he almost forgot this feeling. Seemingly sensing his emotions, Xuanyuan Xiao said loudly, "Chu Aiqing, we have decided to restore you to the position of prime minister. But in the past few years, we have promoted another prime minister, so we called you Left Premier and Right Prime Minister. phase of Chu is the left, and Lin Xiang is the right. "

Chu Yiqun was stupefied. Fortunately, he still remembered Xie En, so he knelt on the ground and kowtowed nine times before bowing deeply, "This subject thanks Your Majesty.

"Daughter." The emperor woke him up and added another sentence that made Chu Yiqun break down in tears of gratitude, "My love, I have been keeping your phase of Chu Palace for you! We've already ordered some people to fix it up and it's just waiting for you to come back. "

Chu Yiqun thanked them once again and brought Beigong Ziyuan out of the palace. Once again standing in front of the gates to the Prime Minister's Estate, Chu Yiqun's heart was in turmoil and he was unable to calm down for a long time. He thought of the dead Chu Yuer, who had died a horrible death, Chu Yunmu, who was missing something, Zhou Niang, who had died in the far north, the Auntie Sun who had stayed in the capital, and his younger son, whom he had never seen before.

Finally, he thought of Chu Qingyao. He wondered what kind of expression this daughter of his would have when she saw him returning to his original position.

"Prince, the wangfei left the capital alone. Do you want to chase after her?"

"Can you catch up?" Xuanyuan Zhi clenched his teeth. Up till now, he still did not know why Chu Qingyao was so angry, and after a moment of silence he continued, "Bring ten of your secret guards and follow them to protect the wangfei."

"Your subordinate will go right away." Seeing the prince's dark face, Qi Jue knew that he was still angry with the princess. How could he dare to ask about his master's matters? He flew out of the city with his men to chase after the wangfei.

Chu Qingyao headed towards Nine Moons Country. Because she was worried about Hua Qian Yan, she travelled through the night, and because she was too tired, she slept on the tree for two to four hours. When she arrived, she immediately went to the Guwu Men to be at the helm of the division, and heard that Yan Er sank into the ocean as soon as he entered the capital, she became even more worried.

After thinking about it, he decided not to wait for Hua Ximo anymore and went straight to see him. This was, after all, the Nine Moons Country. It would be much easier for a country's crown prince to find someone than her.

Arriving at the Crown Prince's Palace, he saw Dongfang Shun and his mouth full of bubbles. His heart couldn't help but sink.

"Prince Zhi's Concubine came from afar and came late, please do not blame her." Dongfang Shun let her in. Chu Qingyao was not in the mood to drink tea, so she asked directly, "Has there been any news from Yan Er, your highness?"

Dongfang Shun laughed bitterly, "My people almost overturned the city, but they couldn't find Yan Er. That day, she went to the Dingguang Mansion and had a conflict with the guards. But once the two of them leave Dingguang Mansion, they will sink like a stone into the ocean, with no information at all. "

Seeing Chu Qingyao knit her brows, Dongfang Shun continued, "I thought that Princess Hua-Yang would not come anymore."

"My Prince has matters to attend to, so he came here late. I will have to trouble Your Highness to take care of Yan Er's matter. You said that Yan Er had a conflict with the Dingguang Mansion's guards, why is that so? "

With things having gotten to this point, Dongfang Shun could only tell the truth. He told her about Hua Qian Yan being scammed into the Dingguang Mansion after she entered the city. "I will have to trouble Your Highness to help me pass a message to Princess Yan Yue. Behind her, there is not only the Guwu Men, there is also the Emperor of the Sky Palace."
