Chapter 155: Diao Chan appears and troops are dispatched to Zhenyuan City

"Diao Chan?"

"Exactly."

Yang Yuhuan nodded, confirming Chu Yang's guess.

"This...how is this possible?"

Chu Yang suddenly felt that his brain was not enough. Diao Chan, she was a figure from the Three Kingdoms period, how could she appear here?

"What's wrong, Your Highness? Do you know this Diao Chan?"

“Nothing, it just sounds familiar.” Chu Yang suddenly fell into deep thought.

If it really is Diao Chan, then we will make a fortune!

You know, this woman only appears in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but Diao Chan in the romance is not an ordinary woman. She has set an example by using the beauty trap!

If he could recruit her to his side, it would definitely be a great help to Chu Yang!

Thinking of this, Chu Yang's heart suddenly became hot, and he quickly asked: "Where is she? Take me to see her!"

"Your Highness."

Yang Yuhuan hesitated, "This person's origin is mysterious, I'm worried that she has evil intentions."

"No problem!" Chu Yang waved his hand and interrupted Yang Yuhuan's words, "I want to see who she is!"

Under the leadership of Yang Yuhuan.

Chu Yang came to a quiet courtyard.

"Your Highness, she is inside." Yang Yuhuan said, pointing to the courtyard.

"Okay, I can go in by myself, you go back first."

Chu Yang took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and walked into the courtyard.

As soon as I walked in the door.

A faint fragrance wafts to your nose, refreshing your heart.

Chu Yang looked up and saw a woman with her back to him under a peach tree in the middle of the courtyard. She had a graceful figure and long black hair.

Hearing footsteps, the woman slowly turned around.

When their eyes met, Chu Yang suddenly felt his breathing stagnate.

The woman's skin was whiter than snow, her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting, and her pair of autumn-water eyes seemed to contain endless tenderness, making people want to indulge in them.

This, is this really Diao Chan?

Chu Yang was deeply shocked. Although he had known for a long time that Diao Chan was an unrivaled beauty, he was still astounded by her beauty when he saw her in person.

"My humble self, Diao Chan, greets you, sir."

The woman bowed slightly and spoke softly.

"Diao Chan..."

Chu Yang came back to his senses and looked at the peerless beauty in front of him, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

He never thought that he would meet the legendary Diao Chan under such circumstances!

"May I know what your name is, sir?" Diao Chan asked softly when she saw Chu Yang remained silent.

"Oh, I'm Chu Yang."

"Chu...Chu Yang?"

Diao Chan's voice trembled slightly, as if she couldn't believe her ears. Her beautiful eyes widened and her eyes moved, as if there were thousands of words to say.

Chu Yang smiled slightly, and asked with a hint of amusement, "Why? Could it be that Miss Diao Chan has also heard of my name?"

"You...are you really the Seventh Prince Chu Yang who defeated Japan so badly and shocked the world?"

Diao Chan took a step forward excitedly, her skirt rippled like water waves, and her autumn-water eyes were flashing with a strange light.

Chu Yang nodded slightly, which was considered as an admission.

He wanted to see why the legendary Diao Chan suddenly appeared in Qiongzhou City.

Seeing Chu Yang admit it, Diao Chan's eyes turned red and tears rolled down like pearls from a broken string. She looked so pitiful with tears in her eyes.

"Your Highness, you must make the decision for me!"

As she spoke, Diao Chan was about to kneel down, but Chu Yang quickly held her up.

"Miss Diao Chan, what are you doing? If you have any grievances, please tell me slowly. If I can help you, I will definitely not refuse."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Diao Chan stood up, and Chu Yang's palm accidentally touched her soft skin. A warm touch came, which made his heart slightly moved.

Diao Chan calmed down her emotions and said slowly, "I am originally the daughter of a gentry in Zhenyuan. My family has been doing business for generations, so I have a small fortune."

"But who would have thought that the Lord of Zhenyuan City coveted my family's property and colluded with bandits to kill all of my family members, more than 30 people in total!"

At this point, Diao Chan was already sobbing, her delicate body trembling slightly, looking very pitiful.

"I managed to escape by chance, sold all my family's property, and fled all the way here."

"I originally wanted to seek refuge with His Highness and avenge my family, but who knew that His Highness had gone on an expedition to Japan."

"I waited and waited, and finally, I finally got His Highness back..."

By the end of her speech, Diao Chan was choking with sobs, her eyes blurred with tears. She looked so pitiful that people could not help but want to hold her in their arms and comfort her.

Chu Yang understood in his heart that Diao Chan had come to seek refuge with him.

But why does this story sound familiar?

"Miss Diao Chan, is what you said true? Do you have any evidence?"

Chu Yang asked calmly. He was not a pushover who would help anyone.

"Your Highness, please understand! Everything I said is true! As for the evidence..."

Diao Chan said as she took out a jade pendant from her bosom and handed it to Chu Yang. "This is a token passed down from my ancestors. Back then, my father took me to visit the mayor of Zhenyuan City. When the mayor saw the jade pendant, he fawned over my father in every way and said that the jade pendant was a treasure."

Chu Yang took the jade pendant and examined it carefully.

This jade pendant is emerald green all over, feels smooth to the touch, and is carved with a lifelike Qilin. It can indeed be called a treasure.

"Your Highness, this jade pendant is the evidence! The city lord must have recognized the jade pendant, so he had evil intentions and wanted to kill people to silence them!"

Seeing that Chu Yang didn't say anything, Diao Chan thought he didn't believe it, so she spoke anxiously.

Chu Yang returned the jade pendant to Diao Chan, and after a moment's silence, he slowly spoke: "Miss Diao Chan, this matter is of great importance, and I still need time to verify it. How about this, you stay in Qiongzhou City first, and when I find out the truth, I will definitely make a decision for you!"

"This……"

Diao Chan felt disappointed when she heard this. She came all the way to Qiongzhou just to seek Chu Yang's protection and avenge her family.

"Why? Miss Diao Chan doesn't trust me?"

Seeing Diao Chan's embarrassed expression, Chu Yang asked with a half-smile.

"No, no, it's not that I don't trust Your Highness, but I have nowhere to go. Can I become your concubine?"

After hearing this, Chu Yang felt that it would be better to be cautious. If it really came back, it would not be too late.

If you rashly agree, what if something happens in the harem? "I will keep this a secret for you after I find out the truth. We will talk about the concubine later."

Chu Yang said this, and then he ignored Diao Chan and turned to walk out the door.

He cursed himself in his heart, why was he always interrupted by things like this? Even a hero cannot resist the temptation of a beautiful woman, the ancients were right.

But when he thought about the more important things he had to do, Chu Yang could only harden his heart and put Diao Chan behind him for the time being.

As soon as he walked out of the room, he saw Yang Yuhuan walking towards him with a hint of doubt in her beautiful eyes.

"Your Highness, who is that girl?"

Chu Yang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
