Chapter 428 It’s really her
This time, Shen Yindi and his friends chose to use Qinggong and climb with their bare hands.
But since we have ropes and grappling hooks, it certainly won't be wasted.
Si Qi said he wanted to take Shen Yindi with him, but Mu Ningyuan would take her for the first leg. Hanming Mountain was too high. It was impossible for one person to take her up there. This would also exhaust her physical strength.
Mu Ningyuan was the one with the highest cultivation among them. He had deep internal strength. His injuries had completely recovered, and he was now in his prime.
Shen Yindi was on his back.
They started climbing!
The others all looked up, staring intently.
There was no extra emotion on his face, but his heart was hanging.
At this time, Queen Yingxue suddenly said: "They won't come down for a while, everyone sit and wait. King Zhenbei, you don't look very good, you'd better sit down."
"Your Highness, what Her Majesty the Queen said is absolutely right. Please sit down first." The shadow on the side advised.
At this time they were on a flat ground at the foot of the mountain.
The Queen of Sakura Snow Country had called the guards to come and build a fire. Eventually they all sat down around the fire.
"I heard that your Great Chu court is offering a reward of 10 million taels of silver to capture you guys and bring you back." The Queen of Sakura Snow Kingdom suddenly said.
Chu Yan was stunned and thought, this queen is indeed not simple. She lives in such a secluded place, but she knows all the news outside.
As she said before, she would send someone to get information. The information here is not isolated.
"Yes, Her Majesty, could it be that you are also tempted by this huge reward?" Chu Yan's voice was light.
The attention of others was also drawn here. They all wanted to know what the Queen of Sakura Snow Country was going to do?
Zi Yan was a little frightened. Why did her mother bring this up?
"To be honest, this amount of wealth is enough for the people of my country of Sakura Snow to have no worries about food and clothing for ten years. I am naturally tempted."
"But you are Yan'er's savior, and you have a close personal relationship with Yan'er. I will definitely not do anything to hurt her."
"I just want to know, after King Zhenbei has been detoxified and recovered, what are his plans?"
"I heard that you were once the most proud prince of the Emperor Chu."
In fact, Chu Yan was not in the mood to talk about these things now, as he was worried about Shen Yindi.
But since the queen mentioned it herself, how could he not know the queen's intention?
"Of course I will go back to quell the rebellion. I cannot allow those who are plotting to usurp the throne and have evil intentions to rule the country."
“If successful, if Your Majesty the Queen needs to let your people develop outside, or trade with the Great Chu, I will definitely help you with all my strength.” Chu Yan said forcefully.
Queen Sakura Snow might have been waiting for these words from him.
She nodded in satisfaction, and was very straightforward: "Then I'll make a note of it. If you go back and don't have enough manpower, I can send an elite force to help the King of Zhenbei."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I appreciate it. But this is a matter of the Great Chu, and it is not convenient for me to let you participate. It is not reasonable."
"Don't worry, Princess Zi Yan and my wife have a very close relationship. Great Chu also welcomes foreign trade. I'm sure you know that there are many people from Nanyue and Zhaoyue doing business in the south of our Great Chu."
"By then, if Her Majesty the Queen needs it, there will definitely be a place for the Sakura Snow Country."
Chu Yan's health is getting worse and worse, but his mind is still clear.
It was true that they were short of manpower when they went back to counterattack, but no matter how short it was, he would never allow outsiders to get involved.
This is the bottom line.
You won’t be criticized in the future.
The Queen of Sakura Snow Country looked at Chu Yan with more and more admiration.
As expected of the King of Zhenbei. It was hard to imagine what his body would be like once the poison was completely removed and his body was restored to its original state.
He is in poor health now, but it does not affect his majesty and momentum at all.
"Okay, then I would like to thank King Zhenbei first," King Yingxue did not continue the topic.
"You are welcome, Your Majesty."
After a moment's silence, Chu Yan asked again, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask, are there any women from your Yingxue Country who are concubines of the Great Chu Royal Family?"
"Absolutely impossible. Women from our Yingxue country don't marry outsiders easily. If they marry out, they must have drunk the water of the Wangchuan River. They are no longer considered citizens of our Yingxue country."
"Why does King Zhenbei say that?" The Queen of Yingxue Country was a little curious and didn't know why he asked that?
"To be honest, my father got a concubine who is probably two or three years older than Princess Zi Yan. The abbot of our Great Chu's Kaishan Temple said that she is from the Yingxue Country."
"He also told me that snow lotus can cure strange poisons and is useful for the poison in my body."
"Is there a portrait of that woman?" asked the Queen of Sakura Snow Country thoughtfully.
"Not at this moment, but..." Chu Yan looked at Chu Yun.
She was looking down at the fire, and it was unclear whether she was listening carefully or was worried about Yan Shu.
"Big sister, can you draw a picture of Concubine Jing for Her Majesty the Queen to review?" Chu Yan took the initiative to ask.
Although he was an excellent painter, he could not remember the appearance of other women except his mother and A Di.
The eldest princess's painting skills might be slightly inferior to his, but compared to ordinary people, they were still far behind.
"Sure. But there is no pen, ink, paper or inkstone here." Chu Yun also agreed readily.
"No problem, I'll just ask someone to go back and get it."
"Dujuan, go back and get it." The Queen of Sakura Snow Country immediately ordered.
"The minister obeys the order."
Zi Yan was a little curious. She didn't understand why her mother was so anxious. Couldn't she paint it when she got back?
I only heard the Queen of Yingxue Country say: "Now that your Great Chu has a new emperor on the throne, she is the concubine of the previous emperor. I don't know how to deal with her?"
"Before Chu Heng ascended the throne, she was my father's favorite concubine, but later she became involved with the queen who was plotting to usurp the throne and became a spy beside my father. I believe that the queen should have taken good care of her now."
"If we knew that she was from Yingxue Country, maybe they would keep her for use." Chu Yan did not hide it.
Queen Sakura Snow's eyebrows and eyes turned visibly colder.
Chu Yan became more and more certain that she might know Concubine Jing.
Du Juan moved very quickly. It took them half an hour to get here from the palace just now, but now it only took her one incense stick of time.
Not only did he bring writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone, he also brought a small table for Chu Yun. Very thoughtful.
At this time, Zi Yan stood up, walked to Chu Yun and sat down: "Sister Yun, I will help you grind the ink."
In Yichunlou before, they all knew each other's talents. They were proficient in everything, including music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Chu Yun is really amazing. Zi Yan admires her very much.
"Thank you Zi Yan."
The Queen of Sakura Snow Country had no objection to the fact that her eldest princess was helping others grind ink.
It's a rare occasion that my daughter has made so many good friends, and she is very happy to see it.
She used to stay in the palace, unwilling to go out and play, and unwilling to make friends. She was always alone, and it was inevitable that she looked lonely.
Chu Yun was very efficient. In less than an incense stick of time, she had drawn Concubine Jing based on her memory.
"Your Majesty, please have a look."
Dujuan came over and presented the painting to the Queen of Sakura Snow Country.
The queen took it in her hand, her brows instantly became colder: "It's her!"
