  Chapter 559 Agree (one more)

  Since hearing the news of Princess Zhenmin’s death, the King of Southern Chu went to Wei to confirm, he vomited blood and fell into a coma. After returning to Southern Chu in grief, he never stepped out of the capital.

  In the following ten years, he was in a daze, immersed in grief, neglected and slacked off on government affairs, allowed Nangong Yin and Ye Xiang to become stronger, and allowed the clan headed by King Liu'an to fight for power, resulting in a three-legged situation.

  The triangular relationship made the situation of the Southern Chu Dynasty very stable and firm.

  Five years ago, when he learned that Princess Zhenmin was alive and had given birth to a daughter for him, he wept with joy. He couldn't suppress it at the time, so he wanted to go to Daliang to find her, but when he walked to the gate of the city, he encountered a boy from the Nangong family beating someone at the gate of the city.

  Once he leaves the city, he will not be able to hide his whereabouts. At that time, it will bring harm to Su Rong, and he is afraid that he will not be able to protect her.

  The queen of Nanchu sent people to kill Su Rong, and it was carried out in secret. The reason was naturally that he was afraid that he would find out that he had a daughter. Similarly, the queen of Nanchu didn't tell the Nangong family, so she was afraid that the Nangong family would be too aggressive and be noticed by him. In this way, the King of Nanchu just took advantage of it and gave him time to plan.

  So, the King of Nanchu suppressed the urge to be surprised, turned back to the palace, and after thinking for many days, he found Ye Xiang.

  Because neither the Nangong family nor King Liu'an of the clan would want Su Rong to exist. Only Ye Xiang can accept Su Rong to negotiate terms with him, help him welcome his daughter back, and support her in the future.

  He reached an agreement with Ye Xiang to train Ye Guixue to be the husband of the king, and plan together for five years.

  But he didn't expect that five years later, Nangong Yin would collude with the Great Wei Crown Prince Yuanzhao and still make the situation so difficult.

  Ye Guixue looked at the King of Nanchu, wondering what he was thinking, and seemed extremely dull. He said: "I feel that the king can trust Zhou Gu, and he will protect the king. After all, he has a marriage letter written by the princess in his hand. The queen has recognized him as him, and the queen has treated him with heart. I have learned that he will not harm the king. The king will take away all the secret guards, and the minister will also take half of his own secret guards to the king."

  The King of Southern Chu stopped his thoughts and looked at Ye Guixue, "Guixue, five years, more than 1,800 days, because of the decision you made with your father alone, you have paid a lot. Su Rong failed to choose you. You must feel uncomfortable in your heart, right? Can you really open your heart to Zhou Gu?"

  Ye Guixue said calmly: "My lord, although you and your father made the decision back then, the two of you asked the minister's opinion and the minister himself agreed. For any unknown matter, after making a decision, it is equivalent to making a gamble. Since it is a gamble, there will naturally be winners and losers. The minister failed to let the queen choose the minister. It was the minister who underestimated Zhou Gu and failed to seize the opportunity to seek the queen's heart. The minister should bear the consequences caused by himself. For Zhou Gu..."

  He sighed softly, "Young Master Zhou, if the king sees him, you will understand that he is a person who cannot be hated. If I don't have this heart, it will be in vain to teach the king and my father for many years."

  Nan Chu King nodded, "That's fine, I'm glad you can think that way."

  He said: "You know that Gu has never raised her daughter for a day, and now she is asked to take over the throne. Compared with Mrs. Zhou of the Duke Protector's Mansion, this king is not a good thing for her. It is nothing more than responsibilities and burdens for nothing, and she can't do it, and Gu can't give it. Therefore, Gu can't force her to choose who to be the king's husband, and she can't force it."

   "I understand." Ye Guixue nodded.

  Nan Chu King stood up, "As you discussed, I will make some arrangements and leave."

  Ye Guixue nodded.

  So, the King of Nanchu called his cronies and arranged the palaces one by one.

  After the arrangements were made, the King of Nanchu said to Ye Guixue: "Leave the palace. Gu takes the secret guards and walks through the secret road, which leads directly to the outside of the city. You tell Zhou Gu to wait for Gu with his marriage certificate at Changtingpo outside the city."

  Ye Guixue felt that it would be better for the king of Nanchu to arrange it this way. It would be safer to leave the city through the secret road. He knew that the palace had a secret road leading to the outside of the palace, but it had not been used for many years. He asked, "Your Majesty, be careful. I will let Zhou Gu take half of the minister's secret guards and hand them over to him."

  The King of Southern Chu agreed and waved to him.

   Ye Guixue left the palace.

  After Ye Guixue left, the King of Southern Chu left the palace with his secret guards through a secret passage.

  Ye Guixue left the palace late at night, and returned to Yexiang Mansion smoothly. When she stepped into the door and was going to see Zhou Gu, she was stopped by Yexiang, "Guixue, you went into the palace? Why did you enter the palace late at night?"

  Ye Guixue stopped, looked at Ye Xiang, "Father hasn't rested yet?"

  Ye Xiangchang let out his anger, "I can't sleep, I heard that you entered the palace, what happened?"

  Ye Guixue curled his hands in his sleeves and said calmly: "Father, I received a message from the princess that she was stopped by the forces of the Nangong family. The princess asked for my help. I will go to the palace to report to the king."

  Ye Xiang frowned when he heard that, "So, she really picked those hidden troubles between the Nangong family and King Liu'an? She is really a newborn calf, and she is bold and reckless. She has just stepped into Nanchu, and her feet have just touched the soil of Nanchu, so she doesn't know how deep it is. Now that she is in trouble, it is shameful to ask you for help. It's not safe. I really doubt that she can come to the capital safely? Even if she comes to the capital, will she be able to secure the throne in the future?"

  Ye Guixue said affirmatively: "Father, the princess can do it, I trust him."

   Ye Xiang choked, "What does your majesty say?"

  Ye Guixue said: "Your Majesty has sent out hidden guards, and I will also send some to save the princess."

  Ye Xiang took a deep breath, "The king's hidden guards, you can't leave, didn't I say that? The king's safety is the most important thing right now."

  Ye Guixue said: "The safety of the king is important, but the safety of the princess is equally important. The king and the queen, no matter which one, cannot be lost." He emphasized emphatically, "Father, there is no turning back. Our Yexiang Mansion and the Nangong family are in the same situation. Now they are completely torn apart and can no longer be harmonious. We have only one way to go, which is to support the princess."

  Ye Xiang was speechless immediately, and waved his hands with a headache, "Okay, what else can I say?" He asked with a bad face, "The king's hidden guards didn't come out in full force, did they?"

  Ye Guixue shook her head, "No, Your Majesty has sent some hidden guards, and I have sent some hidden guards. If we set off immediately, we should be able to save the princess from her troubles."

  Ye Xiang nodded, "Forget it, from now on, we need to keep an eye on the Nangong family and King Liu'an's faction all the time. We must not let the king make mistakes, and the traitor He Zhong in Jinglu. Once we mobilize troops, we may not be able to defend."

  Ye Guixue nodded, "Father said so."
