I didn't become a princess today

Chapter 354
"When did Ming become a national teacher?" Tired of tossing around, Chu Xiu returned to the tent, and the maid brought a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup.

"It's only been closed for a while."

"Who sealed it?" Chu Xiu picked up the porcelain bowl and asked curiously.

"It's Shen Yuan, the eldest concubine of King Qin. I heard that she is a disciple of Master Xiao. She has made great contributions to the new emperor of Ming Dynasty."

Chu Xiu's pupils shrank suddenly, and the hand holding the bowl seemed to lose strength. A bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup was poured down just like that, but she didn't have time to worry about it. She grabbed the maid's skirt and asked Repeatedly, "Who are you talking about?!"

"Qin... Princess Princess of the Prince of Qin... Shen Yuan..."

……

Chu Xiu wandered outside the tent where Shen Yuan was detained for a long time, scratching her hair irritably, hesitating whether to go in or not.

If you go in and meet Shen Yuan, you may not be recognized by her, right?
But what if you recognize it?
What about Shizi?
That old bastard Yue Zhen arrested the Shizi Concubine.

Chu Xiu felt that it was not suitable to see Shen Yuan directly, so she called Yue Zhen over.

"Didn't Brother Huang ask you to cut the grain and grass? What are you doing with the Master of Ming Dynasty?" Chu Xiu asked.

Yue Zhen didn't expect that he cut off the grain and grass, but hijacked the Imperial Master of the Ming Dynasty, "We have been tricked, Daming's grain and grass went another way, and in the end, he will lead someone to rob a team of fake ones. And the leader of this fake convoy is Daming Guoshi. This Daming Guoshi said he wanted to negotiate with the king, and finally brought him back."

Negotiations... Chu Xiu thought of Da Ming who had been dealt with by Chu Xu on the spot before, and felt extremely contemptuous of Chu Xu.

They all said that they should not be beheaded, but Daming's envoys who came to seek peace negotiations, Chu Xu saw that one beheaded one by one, he was rampant and ignorant.

"You hurt her?" Chu Xiu asked.

Yue Zhen shook his head quickly, and said: "The general will not dare, the Great Ming and Xiao Guoshi are masters and apprentices, and the general will be afraid of being blamed by the heavens."

Except for Chu Xu, who is an outlier, people in Southern Xinjiang respect Xiao Nanshan very much, and naturally they also have some respect for Shen Yuan.

"It's fine if you didn't hurt anyone, tell me to treat her well." Chu Xiu ordered, "If she loses a hair, you are the only one to ask!"

"Yes."

Chu Xiu heaved a long sigh. The imperial concubine came here to find Chu Xu, and the negotiation must be just a cover.

……

Chu Xiu never dared to see Shen Yuan, but she called people in every day to check on her situation.

The battle of Yuxia Pass was also reported, Chu Xu retreated, it cannot be said that he was defeated, but it took too long, which was very detrimental to Southern Xinjiang.

When Chu Xiu saw Chu Xu coming back with an angry face, she didn't dare to go directly to touch the bad luck.

"Yuezhen! Let him give me an explanation, why didn't he cut off Daming's food!"

The soft armor on Chu Xu's body has not been changed, and his face is gloomy and manic.

However, Chu Xiu didn't see Wei Yan coming back. After some inquiries, she found out that Wei Yan was left in Yuxia Pass, and the army was still overwhelming the city.

Chu Xiu waited outside Chu Xu's tent, and when he heard Chu Xu's roar inside, the table was overturned, and Yue Zhen screamed, begging for mercy indistinctly.

Chu Xiu counted the time, and the voice of Yue Zhen inside became weaker and weaker. If she didn't go in again, Yue Zhen would die under Chu Xu's hands.

Yuezhen has been obedient to her for the past few days, probably hoping that he can save his life at this time.

Chu Xiu touched her nose and lifted the curtain to go in. Yue Zhen fell to the ground in a bloody mess, but luckily she still had a breath.

"Go down, Chu Xiu, I'm in a bad mood right now, don't hurry up and seek death." Chu Xu said to Chu Xiu in a hoarse voice.

Chu Xiu raised her eyes and said, "Shen Yuan was captured by Yue Zhen."

Chu Xu frowned, and Chu Xiu explained: "Yuezhen should have been set aside by Shen Yuan. Shen Yuan is scheming. With her around, even if you go to cut the food yourself, you may not be able to stop it."

"Shut up!" Chu Xu shouted angrily.

Chu Xiu said to the two servants next to her, "Take Mr. Yuezhen down and ask the military doctor to have a look."

"Are you going to rebel, Chu Xiu?"

Chu Xiu stood in front of Chu Xu, her gaze said calmly: "You have more important things to do than punishing Yuezhen. Shen Yuan was arrested on purpose, and Wei Yan was one reason, needless to say, the other The reason is that she is now the Imperial Teacher of the Ming Dynasty, and what she said can represent the new Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so she came to negotiate with you."

"Now Da Ming's food and grass are not cut off, and Yuxia Pass has been attacked for a long time. Are you sure you want to continue to consume Da Ming like this?" Chu Xiu grew up in the Qin Palace since she was a child, and she has more thoughts, and she understands the overall situation better than Chu Xu.

"So you mean to ask me to surrender?"

"There is no need to surrender, a truce is enough. We have won the seven cities in the south of Daming. With our current national strength, it is already the limit. Defend these seven cities, and continue to cultivate for half a year before continuing to attack the city. The new emperor of Ming has just been established. It is not stable, and Xiliang is about to move around, enough for us to breathe." Chu Xiu analyzed the pros and cons for Chu Xu bit by bit, and she did not want the good southern border to be ruined by Chu Xu.

What Southern Xinjiang needs most is recuperation. Chu Xu's years of tyranny have made the people miserable. When there is a riot, Chu Xu uses violence to control violence. If this continues, Southern Xinjiang will soon be destroyed from the inside.

Chu Xu calmed down for the most part. Although he had no interest in being a wise king, he didn't want to lose to Daming on the battlefield.

"Brother Huang, let's meet Shen Yuan in a while and see what request she made." Chu Xiu felt a little regretful that Wei Yan didn't come back, otherwise she would definitely let them meet, "Don't hurt her."

I don't know if Chu Xu listened to the last sentence, but Chu Xiu was kicked out of the king's tent by Chu Xu.

……

Shen Yuan looked at the exquisite delicacies on the table, it really didn't look like a prison meal, two meat, one vegetable and one soup, it seemed extravagant in the military camp.

She didn't think that Chu Xu would treat her so well, and even other people would not be in the way of her status, and she was not qualified to order the cook to cook such extravagant meals every day.

"See Your Majesty."

Hearing the sound of the door, Shen Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and she put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands.

Chu Xu had already changed into a clean robe, strode in, met Shen Yuan's gaze, and sneered, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you directly?"

"Then are you going to miss the last chance to have a truce with Daming?" Shen Yuan raised her eyebrows and asked back.

Chu Xu and Shen Yuan sat facing each other, "Whether to stop fighting or not, that is my decision."

Shen Yuan poured a cup of tea for Chu Xu, pushed it in front of him, and said firmly: "You will agree to a truce. Even if Daming's internal affairs are unstable now, it cannot be shaken by the current Southern Xinjiang."

"You have been in power for a few years, but you don't know the national strength of Southern Border as well as I do. How long do you think Southern Border is enough for you to squander?"

"How about a deal between us, Chu Xu."
