On the fifth day of the March

The King of Chu set out surrounded by a thousand soldiers.

On the day of departure, the weather in Yudu was very good.

The blue sky, white clouds, the sun hangs high in the sky but doesn’t feel the heat at all. Occasionally, a breeze blows by, gently caressing everyone.

The officials who followed the King of Chu were Du Ximing, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites and the head of the Honglu Temple.

The Honglu Temple is in charge of foreign guests, court ceremonies and festivals, and is in charge of ethnic affairs and foreign affairs reception activities. The government orders are carried out by the Ministry of Rites.

Because it was a peace talk, it was most reasonable to send officials from the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple. These two people were also decided by the emperor and the King of Chu after discussing.

After leaving Yudu City, Ning Youbei lifted the curtains of the carriage and said, "Achu, do you want to ride the carriage with me?"

Qu Chu glanced at the King of Chu coldly and ignored him.

During this trip, Qu Chu only brought He Dabao and Qu Bingyu to Wang Liangcong for care.

Before leaving, the emperor summoned Qu Chu alone and asked her to protect the safety of the King of Chu no matter what.

...

Seeing that Qu Chu ignored him, the King of Chu was still unwilling to accept it.

"Achu, if you don't like to ride a carriage, then you should also be closer to me and talk to me."

Qu Chu still ignored Ning Youbei.

But Ning Youbei is a shameless person. He didn't give up just because Qu Chu ignored him, and kept calling out "Achu" and "Achu".

Qu Chu finally couldn't help it and turned around and glared at Ning Youbei.

"Shut up".

This angry shout finally had some effect, and the King of Chu calmed down for the time being.

He Dabao, who was following Qu Chu, was about to explode, and was called by the King of Chu one after another. He sent Ma Ce to Qu Chu and asked quietly: "General, has the King of Chu been so noisy?"

Qu Chu didn't know either, but it was indeed the case when he was alone with him several times.

Seeing that Qu Chu did not answer him, He Dabao whispered again: "The King of Chu is different from the legendary one."

Qu Chu was a little curious and looked at He Dabao, "What is the King of Chu that everyone talks about?"

"It's all good things to say that he treats people with gentleness and politeness and humility."

"Then what do you think of him?"

He Dabao smiled shyly and didn't dare to say it.

"It's okay, just say whatever you think."

He Dabao then felt embarrassed and touched the back of his head, "I don't know if what I said is right. I always feel that the King of Chu can't see through it. His innocence and scoundrels are all pretending to be. He is actually very deep."

Qu Chu nodded in agreement.

"You are not wrong, the King of Chu is indeed very scheming."

It seems that He Dabao's natural sensitivity is still there.

I don’t know what Ning Youbei would think after hearing the two of them, but he still wanted to pretend to be naive in front of Qu Chu.

...

The convoy moved forward calmly for two days. On the third day, something happened and the convoy was stopped.

The soldier came to report: The person who stopped the car was a girl who said she knew the King of Chu.

After listening to the newspaper, Qu Chu led Ma Ce to the front.

The one who stopped the convoy was a beautiful girl of seventeen or eight years old, dressed up by a martial arts world.

Qu Chu looked at the white hexagonal snowflake logo engraved on the hilt of her sword and knew that she was from Lingxiao Pavilion.

"Why did you stop our convoy, this girl?"

"I want to see the King of Chu."

Qu Chu did not answer, and rode on his horse and looked down at the girl from a high place.

Dongfang Ying answered loudly under pressure:

"I am Dongfang Ying, the daughter of the Lord of Lingxiao Pavilion. The King of Chu has saved me. I heard that he is going to go to the west and wants to accompany him."

A few months ago, Dongfang Ying secretly ran out of Lingxiao Pavilion. She originally thought that her martial arts skills were enough to protect herself in the world, but who would have thought that her experience was really insufficient, and she was targeted and fainted.

Just when she was about to be bullied by scorn, she was rescued by Ning Youbei.

At the beginning, she didn't know Ning Youbei's identity, but was attracted by his appearance and fell in love with him, so she followed him all the way to Yudu. Only after arriving at Yudu did she realize that Ning Youbei was the King of Chu.

Qu Chu ordered He Dabao: "Go and ask the King of Chu to see if I need the Oriental Girl to accompany you?"

Dongfang Ying was quite uneasy under Qu Chu's gaze.

She recognized Qu Chu and knew that Qu Chu was the princess of Chu who was granted marriage by the imperial edict. But she also believed like most people that the King of Chu was not willing to marry her because he liked Qu Chu, but for her military power.

As for whether Qu Chuxi likes the King of Chu, everyone’s views are inconsistent.

Women all think Qu Chu likes the King of Chu.

After all, in their opinion, there is a husband who is as noble as the King of Chu, who is good-looking and has a good temperament, and has no woman who doesn't like it.

Dongfang Ying also thought Qu Chu liked the King of Chu and was worried that Qu Chu would make things difficult for her. After all, she fell in love with the King of Chu herself deeply.

...

After a while, He Dabao came back.

"The prince said: It's enough for him to have a general escort, and he doesn't need the accompanying girl in the East."

Qu Chu said to Dongfang Ying without any expression: "Hear?"

Dongfangying stubbornly refused to let go.

Qu Chu thought to himself: He is really a lawless child!

She had a cold face:

"If Miss Dongfang doesn't let go, don't blame me for being rude. You will be punished if you stop the imperial army privately."

Dongfang Ying then reluctantly moved away. But she did not walk far away, but followed the team all the time.

Seeing that she did not hinder the team from moving forward, Qu Chu ignored her and let her follow him.

He Dabao picked Ma Ce next to Qu Chu, "General, don't you care?"

Qu Chu glanced at He Dabao, "With the appearance of King Chu attracting bees and butterflies, do you think I can control it? Besides, if you have this time, it's better to drink two more pots of wine."

He Dabao thought about the appearance of King Chu, and it was indeed very attractive. It seems that men are not good to look too good, there are so many things to do!

...

At lunch time, the soldiers set up stoves on site to solve their diet, while Qu Chu and He Dabao accompanied Ning Youbei to the inn. Dongfang Ying followed them not far or near.

At the entrance of the station, there were rows of people standing in a row.

Qu Chu's eyes were all white robes, swords, and white hexagonal snowflake logos, and then hexagonal snowflakes.

Seeing Qu Chu and Ning Youbei, the man in the middle stepped forward a few steps and stopped six feet away.

"I have met King Chu, General Qu."

This man is twenty-seven or eight years old. Although he is young, his internal strength and cultivation cannot be underestimated.

Neither Ning Youbei nor Qu Chu spoke.

At this time, Dongfang Ying stepped forward and called out "Senior Brother" to the man.

The man nodded to Dongfang Ying and bowed to Ning Youbei.

"In Xiadongfangyu, the eldest disciple of the Lingxiao Pavilion. Master heard that the King of Chu saved his junior sister, and he had no choice but to repay him. He ordered me to lead my junior sister to protect the King of Chu for this trip."

Hearing this, Qu Chu did not say anything, she waited for the King of Chu to make a decision.
