General Qin had just met him and felt that His Majesty's eyes were astonishingly bright.
Watching her look at Zhou Buyan, General Qin took the opportunity to talk about Zhou Buyan's achievements, and also said that with him as his successor, he would be able to rest easy in the future and he could retire with peace of mind.
Chu Xingchen listened with a smile. She liked it very much and wanted to hear more of his stories.
But when he heard about the danger of the battle between him and the Xirong King of Hell, his heart still rose, "Was he seriously injured? How are you doing now?"
How he persisted, she couldn't even imagine.
General Qin felt that Chu Xingchen seemed to care too much, but caring was good. He ignored the abnormality and tried his best to let the queen know the difficulties of the soldiers.
"Of course the injury is serious, why not serious? I have been recovering from my injuries all the way back. Fortunately, I am in good health. I have almost recovered by now."
Chu Xingchen knew how serious the injury was when he heard it, and couldn't help but said, "General Zhou, you should pay more attention to safety in the future."
General Qin deeply believed that, and even now he still doesn't know why Zhou Buyan suddenly broke out.
Zhou Buyan nodded, not wanting Chu Xingchen to worry.
In fact, as soon as they met, Zhou Buyan knew that he was no match for the King of Hell, and he had no intention of coming out, but who told him to say what happened next.
At that time, no one could care whether he was an opponent or not. No one could hurt His Highness, let alone in such a way, so he had to kill that person.
General Qin saw that he could not even say a few nice words to him, so he helped by saying a lot of nice things.
Chu Xingchen listened and did not call Po Zhou Buyan by his name because it was good.
He left as a shadow and returned as a battlefield general with great achievements.
This identity is very good. From then on, he has been able to conquer the battlefield and win the respect of others with his own abilities. There is no better person, so his martial arts skills are not wasted.
She was so happy for him.
But she was still curious, "How did General Zhou think of joining the army?"
She posted a missing person notice and sent so many people to look for him, but they couldn't find him. It turned out that he had gone to the army.
Zhou Buyan froze immediately after hearing this, and the images that had been tormenting him these days flashed through his mind.
He saw the missing person notice and went back to look for her, but saw the intimacy between Shen Cangzhu and her.
At that moment, he ran away in a hurry. He was afraid, afraid that he would go crazy, and that he would kill Shen Cangzhu.
He didn't expect that in the end, His Highness would still like Shen Cangzhu.
He was full of despair at that time, and when he heard that Beidi Xirong was attacking, he went directly to the army.
They wanted to destroy His Highness's enthronement ceremony and kill the people of Chu who were dear to His Highness's heart, so he went to do it.
Those people were just strangers to him and were insignificant, but they were the people that His Highness valued, so he protected them.
He knows nothing and is not as good as Shen Cangzhu and the others. The only thing he can do is this.
He never thought about making a great contribution, but he didn't expect to end up like this. Because he was so skilled and capable of fighting, he finally entered the sight of General Qin through his military exploits, and was loved and reused.
Before he could react, he inexplicably became a general, and General Qin took him back to watch the ceremony and receive the reward.
He had just woken up from a coma at that time, and he was already halfway there. He couldn't refuse. He also wanted to see His Highness, just for a brief glance.
When he saw it, he thought that His Highness would not recognize her. After all, the rabbit mask she gave her had turned completely red because it was soaked in blood, and the dirt could not be washed away.
Unexpectedly, His Highness recognized him at a glance.
But...she didn't seem to recognize him because she didn't call him.
Or maybe she recognized her, but didn't scream on purpose. After all, she and Shen Cangzhu had reconciled, and they might have consummated their marriage, or even give birth to a crown prince in the future.
Shen Cangzhu was born into a noble family and might become the husband of an emperor in the future.
So, it’s normal not to want to recognize him.
Zhou Buyan was in a panic and felt a dull pain. He replied dully, "I heard that Xirong was attacking, so I went there without thinking much."
Chu Xingchen also wanted to say a few more words to Zhou Buyan, look at him a few more times, and ask him what reward he wanted, but there were many things to do before he ascended the throne, and the timing was not right. General Qin had a look and quickly took him away. .
Chu Xingchen didn't stop him, thinking it would be better to meet in private to ask.
She quickly met a group of people, and after finally taking a break and drinking a cup of tea to quench her thirst, she went next door in a good mood.
There was a Supreme Emperor sitting next door. She looked ugly, but Chu Xingchen was in a good mood.
"Did you see that? Zhou Buyan is not dead, he is back."
When Chu Xingchen wanted to meet General Qin and Zhou Buyan, he specially asked the Supreme Emperor to be taken to the next door, deliberately letting her see how promising Zhou Buyan was, whom she looked down upon.
"Old General Qin valued him. He became a general on his own. He killed the Xirong King of Hell, the general you feared the most. He did not rely on his family or his parents, and became the youngest and most promising fourth-grade loyal general. Mother, how do you feel? how?"
"Do you feel like you were slapped hard? What you said turned out to be a joke."
The Queen was indeed slapped in the face. She never thought that Zhou Buyan would not be dead and would come back in this capacity.
She held it back, "He's not dead now, can you forgive me?"
The smile on Chu Xingchen's face paused, "No, he is not dead, but it is true that you killed him once."
The Queen couldn't help it anymore after hearing this, "According to your words, no matter whether he becomes a general or not, it can't change the fact that he was born in a brothel!"
"He is from a lowly background. Don't try to make him your royal husband and make the Chu royal family a laughing stock in the world."
"That's enough." Chu Xingchen interrupted her, "You are the one who became the laughing stock. In my eyes, he is a hundred times better than you who claims to have noble blood and is nothing."
"No matter how angry you are, this is an unchangeable fact. Then you can watch him soar to the sky and become a being respected by everyone."
Chu Xingchen didn't take over Zhou Buyan's fault as the emperor's husband. She didn't know whether he was alive or dead before, she could say, but now he has become another person, General Zhou.
Chu Xingchen went on without stopping and went to attend the dinner party.
The dinner was held in the palace, and Beidi Xirong Qiguo was originally invited, but they all refused to come because they were unwell.
They were so angry that they were shocked and shocked. It would not be good to go back one by one.
Finally, the envoys from the State of Wu arrived, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Chu Xingchen was originally a little upset because of what the queen said, but when he saw Zhou Buyan, he felt that everything was fine.
Shen Cangzhu, Lingzhou and Xiao Wang also attended the dinner, and their attention was often attracted by Zhou Buyan.
Zhou Buyan didn't raise his head much, because Shen Cangzhu was sitting next to Chu Xingchen, adding wine to her from time to time.
Zhou Buyan is inactive and rarely talks, but as a popular figure and the most special among the crowd, he still attracts countless attention.
Some people think he is familiar, while others are curious and want to test him.
There was an envoy from the Kingdom of Wu here. The envoy from the Kingdom of Wu came over with a smile and a wine glass. When Zhou Buyan wasn't paying attention, he wanted to take off his mask and see what he looked like.
There were many people who had this idea, and the Wu State envoy was just one of them. They just met Zhou Buyan, but Zhou Buyan cleverly avoided it, and the Wu State envoy's expression also changed drastically.
The moment he came into contact with Zhou Buyan, he clutched his stomach as if he felt severe pain. His face turned pale instantly, fear flashed in his eyes, and his face was filled with confusion, "How come you have a saint..."
He was so surprised that he blurted out a sentence, but swallowed it back at the critical moment.
Zhou Buyan frowned slightly, "What?"
There was still something strange on Wu's envoy's face. He wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back, "No...it's nothing. I wonder what the general's name is?"
This general suddenly appeared, and there was too little news about him.
Zhou Buyan heard something flash across his face, and before he could speak, Old General Qin's voice sounded next to him.
"His name is Zhou Muching, please remember him."
"Yes, I remember." The envoy responded. He was about to open his mouth and look at Zhou Buyan's face, but found that the Queen of Dachu was standing beside him at some point, staring closely at General Zhou.
Behind her were her three concubines, whose expressions were also quite strange.
The envoy had an intuition that something was going on and was extremely curious, but he knew what was appropriate and reluctantly backed away.
Chu Xingchen looked at Zhou Buyan steadily, and the name that Old General Qin said in his ears was still Zhou Muxing.
In fact, this name was on the memorial written by General Qin at the beginning, but she didn't think much about it at that time, only thinking about this general and Zhou Buyan's family.
There were so many things going on after that that she no longer cared about the name.
It was not until this moment that Zhou Buyan and his new name Zhou Muching were combined, and looking at Zhou Buyan, she realized what this meant.
Zhou, his surname, Mu means admiration, and Xing, can she be understood as the star of the stars?
