Su Yingxue kept looking at Qu Chu's back with a smile, and she didn't look down at Mantuo Villa until Qu Chu disappeared.

Lumei and Yanhong both tactfully did not speak, they knew that the owner of the manor was reluctant to part with General Qu.

It’s a pity that General Qu belongs to the court, and their owner belongs to the world, so he is destined to be unable to stay together.

...

The other side

Ning Youbei looked at Qu Chu's tense body and sighed: "A Chu, if you can't bear to leave Master Su, then please ask her to stay in Yudu for a while."

"No, I don't want to leave her."

He also said that he was reluctant to let go, his face could freeze to death, and his whole body was on the verge of bursting out.

However, Ning Youbei would not say this.

"Achu, you and I will be newly married soon. You and Master Su are like sisters. Why not ask Master Su to marry you at that time!"

After hearing this, Qu Chu slowly relaxed and his whole body became less cold and hard.

"Okay, then I will let Ying Xue and Bingyu send my marriage to me."

After hearing this, Ning Youbei's heart ached for no reason. But he himself did not realize what this means...

The two of them have been together every day over the past few months, which has brought about trust and emotions that they have not noticed.

...

**

At the end of June

The team on the west side returned to Yudu.

This time, it took more than three months to go on the mission, but the effect was very good, which temporarily lifted the threats of the tribes in the west to the Dayu Kingdom.

When the mission to the west went to the mission, he had been assassinated and attacked many times. He was poisoned while at Toyet, but his way back was extremely smooth.

The Hai Lizhu and others from the Haiqing tribe returned to Yudu with Ning Youbei. Lingxiao Pavilion and his group also returned to Lingxiao Pavilion before entering Yudu.

Dongfang Ying was also forcibly taken away by Dongfang Yu.

After passing the journey to the west, Dongfang Ying's obsession with Ning Youbei was not that deep. Perhaps it was because she was brainwashed by Su Yingxue and thought it was not that good to marry the King of Chu as a concubine. Or perhaps it was because she was shocked by Qu Chu's "braveness".

Dongfang Ying had seen Qu Chu look like hell when he killed someone, and it was chilling like the hell Rakshasa.

She thought about it and she no longer had the courage to live with Qu Chu in the backyard of King Chu.

...

**

After returning to Yudu, Ning Youbei Prince's Mansion went directly into the palace without even entering.

It was already late at this time. It was originally the time for the emperor to go to the harem, but Ning Youbei had sent someone to send a letter saying that he would go back today, so the emperor had been waiting in the imperial study room.

"Emperor Brother".

Looking at Ning Youbei who was exhausted, not only had he lost weight, but also had a little darker skin, and his skin was not as shiny as he was in Yudu, the emperor felt a little distressed.

"Youbei, thank you for your hard work."

"Brother, it's okay to have worked hard for this trip, but it's dangerous. I almost couldn't see the brother."

Ning Youbei had sent someone to inform the emperor of the content of the alliance before, but he was not in a hurry to talk about official business. He would be chased and poisoned all the way.

"If this trip was not protected by General Qu, and the help of Lingxiao Pavilion and Mantuo Villa, I would have been back in vain."

Ning Youbei said this not just by saying it, but by identifying and gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

When Ning Youbei was talking about the thrilling journey, the emperor was also worried.

"Fortunately you're fine."

After feeling a little sad, the emperor asked, "Youbei, who do you think the killer you are?"

Ningyou North Road:

“I suspect it’s two or three groups of people.

The people who bribed the killers to chase me all the way were a group of people, but I can't be sure whether these people were old foxes like the court or the local vassal kings.

I suspect the two thousand people attacked that night, which vassal king was a private soldier. This is another group of people.

I was not sure about the poisoning in the end. Maybe it was done by people from various tribes? Maybe it was done by another vassal king? Maybe it was attacked by the night vassal king."

The two brothers studied it for a while, but in the end they still couldn't get a positive answer.

...

Ning Youbei said again:

"My brother has imagined General Qu's courage before, but only by really seeing her killing the enemy can she know how brave she is.

General Qu has to keep it no matter what. As long as she is there, there is no need to worry about whether it is the Wolf Kingdom or the tribes in the west.

You didn't see her shocking the tribes in the west. She slashed her with one sword, and Batu of the Tata tribe was so scared that she fell to the ground. This is something that no other general could do."

When the emperor heard Ning Youbei praise Qu Chu without evading suspicion, he was not unhappy, but instead sighed:

"It's not easy for you as a princess.

She is only 26 years old now, and has been fighting on the battlefield for 11 years, making great achievements, and has gone from a level-less general to a first-rate general with an army of 300,000.

And she has so many military achievements and so many loyal soldiers, she is not arrogant or arrogant at all, does not collude with other important officials, and only obeys my orders, which is even more rare."

Ning Youbei echoed:

"This time I went to know General Qu better. She is a person who values ​​friendship. Whether it is the soldiers under her, or the owner of Mantuo Villa, she is fully aware of it.

I thought: If I treat her with sincerity, she will repay me with even more sincerity.”

"It's great that you can think like this. I've always been worried that you dislike General Qu and are not like women."

Ning Youbei Dao: "No, I have never despised General Qu, but I respect her very much."

After talking about this, Ning Youbei also told the story of Mantuo Villa's unwillingness to accept rewards from the court.

"The owner of Mantuo Villa said: Mantuo Villa has a good business in medicinal materials, but it has also developed many poisons, so the court should not reward her.

If one day Mando Villa encounters danger, then I will ask the emperor brother to help them.”

The emperor was even more sad.

"I remember when the emperor's aunt left the palace, they were sent by my mother and I. At that time, no one expected that the emperor's aunt could build a Mando Villa.

Not to mention that Mantuo Villa saved your life this time, I just want to help them because Mantuo Villa was built by the emperor's aunt.

The emperor recalled the past.

"I was 11 years old at that time, and I still remember the farewell scene. My mother was very sad and said that after the emperor's grandmother left, she had no one to speak.

At that time, I didn’t quite understand what my mother said. Thinking of so many people in the palace, why was there no one who could speak?

It was not until my mother left that I deeply realized what she said.

You were still young at that time and couldn't understand what I said, but I still only told you the truth. Every time I said it, you would giggle at me, thinking I'd tease you."

Ning Youyuan also laughed.

"I was so young at that time, so I naturally didn't understand what you said, but I still remember what happened later when I got older. Brother, you were injured twice to save me."

"Then you blocked a lot of arrows for me, and you almost lost your life..."

That night, Ning Youbei rested in the palace. The emperor did not go to the harem, and the two brothers slept in the compartment.
