Chapter 326 Messengers from the Four Kingdoms Visit the Crown Princess
Needless to say about the Chu family, Chu Yunxi grew up under their noses. Not to mention going to other countries, she even never left the capital. How could the leaders of various countries give her such great honor?
Woolen cloth?
Who could be behind all this?
Jun Lingyun, who had always been calm at all times, was trembling slightly in his heart. He couldn't understand the depth of this matter. What kind of force was so powerful?
Even Chu Yunxi himself is full of question marks at this moment.
If it was just hearsay, she would definitely think that the other person was making up a story, but this really happened in front of her eyes and to her. Chu Yunxi felt that she almost didn't recognize herself.
"May I ask the envoy of Nanyan Kingdom, are you here this time because of Princess Shengya's friendship with me?"
Nanyan Country is currently the country with the most stable relationship with Yunxiao Country, so Chu Yunxi decided to start asking questions from the Nanyan envoy.
Unexpectedly, the messenger of Nan Yan actually gave her an ambiguous answer.
"Back to the Crown Princess, yes and no."
When the envoy of Nanyan saw Chu Yunxi's eagerness, he stopped trying to keep things secret and spoke frankly.
"The Prince Regent is naturally happy to hear that the Crown Princess is on good terms with our Princess Shengya, but if it hadn't been for the entrustment of her old friend, we the Prince Regent wouldn't have thought of such a move."
"Old friend?"
Chu Yunxi felt her heartbeat speed up slightly.
"Could the messenger tell me who the old friend is?"
The Southern Flame Messenger cupped his fists:
"Forgive me, Crown Princess. It's not that Wei Chen doesn't want to tell you. It's just that Wei Chen doesn't know who the regent's old friend is."
Chu Yunxi refused to give up and asked the Dongyi envoy again.
"Then, why did the sixth prince, the envoy of Dongyi Kingdom, send you here?"
Before the reason was determined, Chu Yunxi did not dare to mention Jun Zifeng casually, for fear of exposing him and bringing him trouble.
The envoy from Dongyi Kingdom also responded respectfully:
"Back to the Crown Princess, we Sixth Prince are guided by his mentor."
The Sixth Prince had already told him that he should answer all the questions asked by the Crown Princess of Yunxiao Kingdom.
"Mentor?"
Chu Yunxi's breathing was slightly rapid, and she tried hard to restrain herself so as not to lose her composure. There was a name that kept swirling in her mind, and impacted her cognition.
"May I ask who the Sixth Prince's mentor is?"
"I am a humble minister, but I have not been able to meet you by chance. I hope the Crown Princess will forgive me."
The Dongyi envoy was also stuck on this question and could not give an answer. Chu Yunxi calmed down slightly and looked at the Xizhao envoy again.
The envoy from Xizhao Kingdom already knew what Chu Yunxi wanted to ask, so he took the initiative to reply:
"Our Highness, the Crown Prince, was entrusted by our savior to repay his kindness. As for his identity, I also don't know his identity."
Chu Yunxi finally looked at the envoy from the Northern Barbarian Kingdom. After all, among the four countries, only the Northern Barbarian Kingdom came to present him with a bride, but he did not present a peace treaty.
The Northern Barbarian envoy did not have any arrogance and said bluntly:
"Our little prince only said that he would like to make friends with the crown princess."
Make a friend? What does she have that makes the little prince of the Northern Barbarians want to make friends with her? It seems that there is none. Since she doesn't have it, it must be someone close to her who does.
The old friend of Regent Nanyan, the mentor of the Sixth Prince of Dongyi, the savior of Prince Xizhao, and the friend that the little prince of the Northern Barbarians wanted to make.
This identity, picked out at random, is enough to shock people. Could it really be the same person, could it be the person in her heart?
Her mentor, Sikong Yu?
If there is anyone around her who has traveled all over the Five Kingdoms, it is only her mentor Sikong Yu.
The peace treaty was stamped with her Crown Princess Seal instead of the Jade Seal or Prince Seal. Although she was representing the Yunxiao Kingdom at the moment. But in this way, if she made any mistake, the three countries would have reason to immediately void these peace treaties.
This is the most powerful guarantee for her safety.
Apart from her family and Jun Lingyun, the only person Chu Yunxi could think of who would go to such great lengths to plan for her was her mentor Sikong Yu.
She originally wanted to give these three peace treaties to Jun Lingyun. But if her mentor really worked hard to win them for her, how could she live up to her mentor's love for his disciples?
"Ling Yun, I..."
She hesitated to speak, not wanting Jun Lingyun to misunderstand that she had any plans for his empire.
Jun Lingyun smiled warmly at her.
"The Crown Princess will seal it, and I will send someone tomorrow to deliver one copy to several envoys."
General Chu's heart beat like a drum and he couldn't help but stop him and said:
"Your Highness! Think again."
As a general who holds heavy troops on the border, for so many years, he knows that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. How can he allow others to sleep soundly beside him?
If he hadn't kept a low profile in the capital, how could the emperor have allowed him to this day?
Even if His Highness the Crown Prince loves Xi'er very much today, there is no guarantee that in the future, if the feelings of the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard have faded, he will not regret Xi'er today and hold the throat of Yunxiao Kingdom.
At that time, even if there are four countries as guarantors, how difficult will Xi'er's situation be if she loses her husband's heart?
Jun Lingyun's reputation as the God of War is far-reaching. When he is able to control various countries, will he settle the score with the Queen?
General Chu was feeling uneasy when he saw Jun Lingyun raised his hand to stop what he was about to say.
"As long as it is beneficial to the Crown Princess, I will do whatever it takes."
Chu Yunxi's eyes had not left Jun Lingyun's face since just now. What she saw was no suspicion or anger, only the husband's full doting on his wife.
She lowered her head, pursed her lips and smiled, her heart filled to the brim. Every time, no matter how much she overestimated Jun Lingyun's feelings for her, they were never as strong and hot as his true feelings.
"Excuse me, Your Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, so we won't bother you any more. When we get the treaty tomorrow, we will return to the country and say goodbye here."
The envoys from several countries resigned one after another. Chu Wenhong went to see off the guests again. He thought about it again and again, and when he arrived at the gate of the mansion, he still called to stop the four people.
"If these envoys are really for the good of the Crown Princess, I hope that the envoys can say goodbye to our Emperor before they leave the capital. Wen Hong, I would like to thank you."
He bowed and saluted. Anyone who can become a messenger is naturally not stupid. No matter how wise the emperor is, there is no guarantee that he will not be angry if he is completely ignored.
The envoys from the four countries looked at each other and nodded in approval.
"Shilang Chu has thought carefully and we agreed. Shilang Chu stayed and took his leave."
By the time Chu Wenhong returned to the hall, Chu Yunxi had already been taken away by Madam Chu and Princess Guo to have a private conversation.
In the hall, General Chu is accompanying Xiao Xin.
"Your Highness, Xi'er trusts you wholeheartedly. Since she has married you, what's hers belongs to His Highness. No matter what it is, if His Highness needs it, Xi'er can take it out at any time."
Poor parents in the world, General Chu has never treated anyone so humbly in how long it has been.
Jun Lingyun stood up, General Chu was still bowing, waiting for Jun Lingyun to speak.
"Father-in-law, where can I find a father-in-law who praises you for your son-in-law? My father-in-law is standing and I am sitting. Does your father-in-law want Xi'er to blame me, my new son-in-law, for neglecting my father-in-law?"
Mr. Chu's resolute face was now dull, and his jaw could not be closed.
Did the words he just heard come from the mouth of the majestic Crown Prince?
