Chapter 390 (1/2)
When the Chimonanthus bloomed in the wind, Chu Zongge finally waited for his niece Princess Gu in his previous life. On that day, there was heavy snow outside, which made the whole Imperial City Silver and plain. Glittering everywhere. It's like being buried by white grains of rice.
Princess Gu is dressed in a red beard. It is full of intricate and winding bird and animal patterns, lining the skin like snow, crystal clear, and the feet are flying golden pointed boots. When I got off the carriage, I swaggered and didn't have the lady posture of Miss Qin family at all. They marched to the center of the palace. He saluted him, ”see the emperor for your courtier daughter Gu.”
It was carved out of her mother's mold. No wonder the emperor regarded her as the Pearl in the palm of his hand, but how could he be cruel and send her to a thousand miles away. Chu Zongge raised his eyebrows in his spare time, ”get up.”
Gu Yi raised his eyes. I saw the emperor on the Dragon chair at a glance. She looked very young. She should be much younger than her father. Her eyes smiled into two crescent moons. ”The emperor is very young. I thought he was an uncle.”
Chu Changqing, dressed in green, changed his face slightly. ”Princess, this is the emperor. Don't be rude.”
I was your uncle. Chu Zongge shrugged indifferently, ”I'm not much bigger than the princess. If I really call uncle, it's a joke, are you?”
Chu Changqing quickly saluted. ”The minister is general Kur's adviser, Chu Changqing.”
It was him. Sure enough, it is somewhat similar to Xu Hanfei. After all, it is a brother. Chu Zongge nodded slightly and said, ”Chu Changqing is a good name. It has a bit of the flavor of people in Qin, not like people in Xirong.”
Chu Changqing's lips lit up with a faint smile, ”I'm really not from Xirong in blood. My father and mother used to be from the state of Qin. Later, they gave birth to me in Xirong. Since then, I grew up in Xirong and have been a Xirong person.”
Chu Zongge curved his lips and said, ”no wonder you are related to the state of Qin. Since you are general Kur's counselor, you must be a talented person. I want to see what kind of things are hidden in this general counselor who attacked the Imperial City in just ten days.”
Chu Changqing was stunned, and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes. ”I hope the emperor will forgive me. Things such as seeking skills can't be displayed. I don't know how to let the emperor know. I just know a little.”
Chu Zongge sneered, ”I'm not interested in listening to the silk and bamboo strings in this winter. Since you're in military uniform, you might as well show me some swordsmanship and compete with my men.”
Chu Changqing raised his eyes and looked at the unfathomable man on the Dragon chair. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond, ”compete with the emperor's men. I don't know what sacred will the emperor send to compete with me?”
Chu Zongge's pupils tightened. ”I also know a little about swordsmanship. How about childe Chu Changqing coming to compete with me?”
Chu Changqing's face turned white. ”My minister came all the way to negotiate a peace contract with the emperor. He didn't dare to compete with the emperor in martial arts.”
As soon as Princess Gu heard that the emperor was embarrassing him, she pouted and said, ”if the emperor wants to compete with the sword, the minister and daughter can also compete with the emperor. Why call general Kur's military division into battle?”
”I know Princess Gu has learned martial arts since childhood, so she is very powerful and is not afraid of ordinary men,” Chu Zongge said with a funny smile. ”I was joking just now. How could I come down to compete with Childe Chu? I let others come.”
Chu Changqing stared round and looked at the copper door behind the Dragon chair slowly opening. A man with full armor came out. When he walked up, he only heard a click. His height was the same as him. He narrowed his eyes and flashed a trace of clarity in his heart. It was clearly Xu Hanfei. He could recognize it even if it turned into ash.
Xu Hanfei deliberately changed into another voice and said with a smile, ”childe Chu, you are polite.”
”Even if you want to compete in martial arts, you should first ask your childe's name,” Chu Changqing half narrowed his eyes and looked at him up and down. ”Dare you ask your childe's name?”
Xu Hanfei gently moved his steps, ”you don't have to know. When we finish the sword competition, you will naturally know.”
Chu Changqing turned his eyes and didn't want to talk to him. He said bluntly, ”it seems that I know now that my good brother is safe. As a brother, I haven't seen you for many years. I didn't expect you to become a person next to the emperor since you entered the palace of the state of Qin.”
Xu Hanfei also guessed in his heart that he would see through his true identity, but he didn't expect that since he broke through like this, he pursed his lips into a line and said, ”brother, you haven't changed at all after years, and your speech and behavior are still the same.”
Chu Changqing smiled and said, ”you are the same. It seems that our brothers have not changed for so many years.”
Princess Gu was stunned. The scene of the brothers' meeting was never expected. She thought she would see it later. She didn't expect to see it now.
