Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 46
Zhou Jing felt mixed emotions in his heart.

The emperor of Chu was very proud and was afraid of going to war with the powerful Yan State. This was something that most of the courtiers knew well.

So today, when Princess Yingxue caused such a big commotion, the emperor still did not waver in his determination to marry the princess to Beiyan to consolidate the alliance.

Fortunately, the princess is determined.

But what if the two of them had a crush on each other and Murong Chen became the hero who saved her life?

He looked at King Chen, who was facing the wind with a beautiful tree, and then at the princess who was as beautiful as a peach and plum. They seemed to be a perfect match.

"Brother Zhou Jing, tell me, does he want to kill me or save me?"

Zhou Jing raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of King Chen shielding the princess from the sword. There was undetectable blood on his black sleeves, and he felt a strong sense of sourness.

"I... didn't see clearly."

It was clearly Zhou Jing who shouted "Princess, be careful" just now, but now he said he didn't see clearly.

Anyone would think that he must have seen something.

In order not to damage the diplomatic relations between the two countries, he had no choice but to use "didn't see clearly" to cover up the truth that King Chen committed the murder.

Murong Chen covered his sneezing mouth and nose and opened his eyes in disbelief.

He did not expect that the famous general of Chu State would turn out to be a despicable villain who talked nonsense.

Looking at the way he lowered his eyes and glanced at the princess after he said the panic words, I felt even more contemptuous.

Huh, for the sake of a woman, you are not even a gentleman. I have always respected you as a hero in vain!

Princess Yingxue looked at King Chen and sneered.

Obviously, she trusts her brother Zhou who has played with her since childhood.

"If we Chu people have a dispute over matters between the two countries, we will only fight openly on the battlefield. I didn't expect that you Yan people like to act in private and clean up secretly."

Murong Chen wanted to explain something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he coughed even harder, as if his heart and lungs were burning in fire. "I think you Chu people just like to tell lies with your eyes open!"

Tiejia originally thought that the gentleness and elegance of the Chu people were quite pleasing to the eye, but now all his goodwill was ruined by Xiang Yingxue's inconsistency and Zhou Jing's lying and deception.

He pointed at Zhou Jing: "You damn well saw everything just now, and you still have to talk nonsense here. I think you deserve a beating!"

Just as Tie Jia was about to move forward, he was stopped by the panting King Chen.

Xiang Yingxue also took hold of Zhou Jing's arm: "Brother Zhou Jing, we don't want to get involved with these barbarians. We should go back home to talk to eldest sister earlier."

Suddenly, she felt Zhou Jing's arm was a little wet. When she lowered her head, she saw that it was blood.

"Brother Zhou Jing, are you injured?"

Xiang Yingxue looked worried and hurriedly took out the silk handkerchief from her arms.

While carefully tying it on his wound, he asked worriedly: "Brother Zhou Jing, does it hurt?"

Zhou Jing shook his head.

Seeing Princess Yingxue worried about him, a warm current surged in her heart.

If he had admitted that King Chen saved her just now, then she would be dressing another man's wounds now.

Being a gentleman is better than keeping her by your side.
He could only choose the latter.

Although Murong Chen has not yet recovered from the stimulation of chili powder, he can clearly see that the two have a close relationship.

Especially that stinky girl, who has always been gnashing her teeth at her since the princess's identity was exposed, is completely different from the gentle and considerate person beside Zhou Jing at this time.

He tried to exercise his internal strength and adjusted his breathing. After a moment, he finally looked normal.
