Chapter 200

Yun Qing was surprised that she had exposed so many flaws invisibly, but she still didn't know it.

"Since you already know my identity, why did you save me when you entered the customs?" Yun Qing's eyes were full of vigilance. Since Chu Huan already knew her identity, he should understand her relationship with Xuanye Kingdom. All glory is glory, and every humiliation is humiliation, so what is the reason why he took her in?The birthday banquet of the King of Chu is coming soon, and it is also a grand banquet for choosing a concubine, and he has dragged himself into these turmoil that had nothing to do with her. What is his intention?

Chu Huan saw the vigilance in Yun Qing's eyes, his gentle handsome face sank, and then he sighed.Yun Qing looked at him suspiciously, while he slowly walked into the plum blossom shower, and said lightly: "I haven't been back to the palace for many years, and this year, the plum blossoms here seem to be in full bloom. Before, I never I never thought it was so beautiful here…”

It has been many years, and even he himself has forgotten it, but he never thought that one day when he returns to his hometown, he will feel that the cage and the place where there is only fighting that he hates at the beginning are so sparkling. In spring, there is also a cold fragrance and undercurrents, and the spring scenery is shining.

Yun Qing raised her eyebrows, and Chu Huan's answer made her feel even more uncomfortable. She strode forward and followed his footsteps to the depths of the plum grove. middle.

"Do you know? When I was nine years old, I was still an unfavored prince. My father and king never paid attention to me. It was difficult for my mother and concubine to protect themselves in the harem. The only thing waiting for us, mother and son, was the harem." The humiliation and ridicule of the concubine and the bullying of the elder brother and the weak brother. They, everyone wants to get a trace of superior satisfaction from us in this deep palace. The mother concubine bears it, and can't even protect me. Every night, she will only Crying in front of the mirror, and then serving him more wholeheartedly when my father came, in order to win me a little bit of power that I should have as a prince, but unfortunately, she never did it, because my father loves, It's just her beauty and the tears of resignation and joy." Under the moonlight, Chu Huan stopped, and he raised his hand to caress the gray twisted branches, as if he was like that dry branch, although he was so quiet that he couldn't be overwhelmed. No one notices it, but one day it will be able to bloom such gorgeous and intoxicating flowers.

Yun Qing was silent. Although she didn't understand why Chu Huan wanted to tell her this, she still chose to listen in silence.Because some people's stories can represent his past, but they can also reflect his future, and she wanted to know if Chu Huan had the ambitions that others said.

"Later, my father gradually got old, and the concubines in the harem also gradually lost their former colors, but my mother and concubine were still as calm as water, beautiful and quiet, so my father loved my mother more and more, even , under the frequent mention of my mother and concubine, he finally noticed me, but he always thought that I was a concubine prince who should not have the treatment that other princes should have. He even said that a man is handsome but weak The breath is too heavy, and I don't deserve to stand above the court of Great Chu." Chu Huan's hand stroking the branch suddenly seemed to recall some pain, and even his brows were tightly raised.

"What happened later?" Yun Qing's heart was a little moved. She could imagine how Chu Huan, the son of a concubine and concubine who was looked down upon by the entire Northern Chu, spent the period of heartache in the past ten years. Childhood and adolescence.Being scolded, ridiculed, and even humiliated his mother in front of him, even now, he is strong enough, but the king of Chu still focused on the still charming and beautiful Concubine Jiang. , What kind of humiliation?
Chu Huan looked back at Yun Qing, under the cold moonlight, her slim and beautiful figure was wrapped in a black night gown, her long hair fluttered in the strong wind, and her pair of dark and agile eyes shone with an amber luster, like two precious stones In general, it is a soft touch in the heart.

"Later, at the father's birthday banquet, the other princes brought out expensive gifts, but as a poor person who is so poor that even three meals a day are extravagant, what can I give to celebrate my father's birthday? Then At that time, in order to give me another chance to stand up in the court, the concubine sold all the jewelry that my father gave me, put a bag of silver taels into my hand, and asked me to buy something decent to present to my father At that time, my whole body was as if I had fallen into an ice cave, and I was almost shivering. I felt that my heart and blood had been frozen, and I began to hate this palace, my father, and those who had insulted and humiliated me. My concubine and I hate the concubine's grievances even more. In my opinion, she can not compete for favor, and even allow me to be abandoned by this palace with her, because even if I live in a desolate cold palace, I feel more worthy. Dignity." Chu Huan's voice trembled a little in the cold wind, his handsome figure was stiff and straight, as if trying to suppress something.

Yun Qing blinked her eyes, pursed her red lips lightly, and couldn't help sighing silently.

"Because of that kind of hatred, when I was 14 years old, I was already immersed in hatred. It was the first time in my life that I understood the truth that if you don't plunder, you will have nothing. So, I took the bag of silver and stepped on it. When I got out of the scheming palace, I didn’t follow my mother’s wishes to buy the so-called birthday gifts. Because at that time the Huns often invaded the territory of Northern Chu, the people were in dire straits, there were many poor people, and many people died of starvation every year, so , I bought the granary of a wealthy family, and told him that I was just a poor prince born to a concubine of the Han Dynasty, but for the sake of the prosperity of the Northern Kingdom, I would rather starve to death than let the people of Northern Chu live in dire straits , So, I opened a warehouse to release grain, and helped the poor people and the beggars all over the street, and even they ate, lived, and slept together in rags, and built houses for them with the wood left behind by the rich. , eat leftovers to fill their stomachs, and tell them how to survive. As a result, my reputation spread like wildfire in Beichu, and many wealthy households were moved to support me, and even shook the entire royal city." There was a wry smile on Chu Huan's lips. During those years, the filth and hardship were not comparable to that of Goujian, the King of Yue, or even those 16 years of forbearance and dominance.

"Father was shocked when he found out what I had done, but he didn't believe it, so when he didn't see me come to celebrate my birthday on the day of the birthday banquet, he personally led the concubines and other princes, civil and military officials in the harem Hundreds of officials went to the street to look for me. In fact, I know that he still doesn't care about me, but he has no choice but to feel relieved that I have established a good reputation for him, so he came down in person to let all the people Everyone knows that I am his son, and such a son must have been trained by a wise king father, so, that time, he admitted for the first time that I was his prince." Chu Huan's eyes turned gray, even though , the luster in his eyes could not be reflected in the bright snow.
