"Your Majesty took too long to take a bath." Panruo smelled the same medicinal scent from both of them when they entered the door, "It was I who looked down upon Your Majesty in the past, and I didn't expect Huiyang people to be very good at playing. "

Zhao Chen didn't want to argue with him, "Couldn't the prince come here just to count how long I need to take a bath?"

Panruo gritted his teeth secretly, he knew that this matter could not be dragged on any longer, no matter how righteous his words were, but he knew that no matter whether the non-aligned Huiyang would be wiped out by Beirong or not, their Nanqu would certainly be too. Can't live.Because of this, this is Nanqu's weakness, and there is only room for them to compromise.

But he still didn't give up, he just wanted to bet that Zhao Chen was as anxious as him.

"Isn't Your Majesty the clearest about the purpose of my coming?" Panruo said, "What Xiao Qi and you have done, as I said before, I don't have to pursue it. But, Your Majesty, have you thought about it now? "

"Panruo, if you say these boring words again, I'm not interested in listening to what you have to say." Zhao Chen looked at Panruo coldly, and stood up after a few seconds, "The prince should go back to Nanqu. Whether you want to unite with Beirong, I will accompany you one by one!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Joss yelled a few times but couldn't keep Zhao Chen and Xiao Qi from their backs, but Nanqu was in dire straits now. The prince was ignorant, but he couldn't.The king sent him here to order him to take good care of Panruo, and the current situation is all his fault.

He knelt down on the ground without hesitation, bowed deeply in Zhao Chen's direction, "Your Majesty, please, come back. Nanqu will show 100% sincerity."

Panruo had a look of disbelief, Nanqu didn't have as many rules as Huiyang, they never had the habit of kneeling.Kneeling, this is taking away all the dignity of Joss!

"Get up, what are you doing kneeling on him!" Panruo shouted at Joss in Nanqu dialect, reaching out and grabbing Joss' arm to pull him up, but failed.

"Prince, we can't wait any longer." Joss was extremely calm, and after saying this, he begged Zhao Chen to turn back in Huiyang words.

Zhao Chen is not a hard-hearted person. Besides, he planned to establish diplomatic relations with Nanqu. It is enough to achieve his goal, and there is no need to make the relationship between the two parties so ugly.

"Lord Joss, get up quickly. I didn't intend to make things difficult for you. It's just that I can't fulfill your conditions. It's better not to waste the time of both parties."

Zhao Chen helped Joss up, and Joss looked solemn, "Your Majesty, we can renegotiate the terms."

"It's good to be so natural, but, is the prince willing?"

Panruo's expression naturally reflected his reluctance, but seeing Joss' eyes, he still endured, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"I'm not a narrow-minded person, so it's great." Zhao Chen walked back to the seat he had just taken, and asked, with his head propped up, "I just don't know what Nanqu can bring us?"

"What is the meaning of this, Your Majesty?"

"Lord Joss is so smart, how could he not understand what I mean?" Zhao Chen smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes, "The imperial concubine was punished by me in this Cangwu Pavilion. It doesn’t matter if you admit or not to what you have done in the palace, but it’s too much to expect Huiyang to be manipulated by you, isn’t it?”

"Your Majesty is trying to add insult to injury."

Joss' eyes were dim. In fact, from the very beginning, he knew that Nanqu would suffer a loss, but Huiyang also had concerns at first, which made him think that Nanqu might still be the beneficiary of this deal.But later, with the eunuch's departure, Huiyang lost his worries, and the prince pressed him again and again, and the current situation could not be more normal.

"I am this boulder. If Nanqu is not willing to take it, I have no choice but to find another place."

"Please tell me what Huiyang's condition is."

"I don't want much. Everyone knows that Nanqu's poison is unparalleled in the world. I want all the antidote prescriptions for the poison you commonly use."

Panruo, who had been silent all this time, immediately blew up when he heard this sentence, "Huiyang's people are too greedy." He was stopped by Joss just after he finished speaking, "Prince!"

"It's just the most common prescription that can be exchanged for a hundred years of stability in Nanqu. If you feel that you have lost this business, you don't have to trade with me."

"Your Majesty is making things difficult for us." Joss stopped Panruo who wanted to refute behind him.

Panruo is usually the most frivolous and impulsive. Although Joss also thinks that this request is too much, he is always afraid that Panruo will completely cut off the chance to bargain with this last idea.

"To make things difficult?" Zhao Chen snorted softly, "In the current situation in Nanqu, even if I intend to make things difficult, what position does your lord have to refuse?"

The little emperor had always looked weak in the past. Although he was also wise, he never had the temperament that a king should have.But now, he is just sitting on an ordinary stool, but he is not angry, not inferior to the old emperor who passed away.

However, this condition is not only unacceptable to them, but also hesitant to come to the king, Joss resolutely said, "Nanqu cannot meet this condition. If your majesty is not willing to give in, I can only say that even if all Nanqu soldiers die in battle On the battlefield, we cannot allow outsiders to learn what our ancestors have passed down from generation to generation."

As if he had expected Joss to say this, "Since Master Joss said so decisively, it would seem too unnatural for me not to give in. In this case, I only want Nanqu's elixir that can cure all kinds of poisons."

"It turns out that His Majesty's purpose is here."

"I have already made a concession. If Mr. Joss still thinks that my request is unreasonable, please go back." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

His goal from the beginning to the end was the elixir, and if he got this prescription to cure all poisons, even if Nanqu's poison would harm the people of Huiyang in the future, at least he would have a way to defend himself.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to discuss with the prince."

"Please."

After about a quarter of an hour, Panruo said reluctantly, "We agree. Please Huiyang fulfill the promise."

"Prince, don't worry. This is natural." Zhao Chen didn't seem to be too surprised, as if he had expected such a situation long ago, and everything was calculated by him.

After Panruo left, Chen Bing was called by Zheng Quan to Cangwu Pavilion.

"Grassman sees Your Majesty." Chen Bing saluted respectfully and stayed in the palace for three days. This was the second time he saw Zhao Chen.The first time was only a short one, Zhao Chen was sitting in a high position, he couldn't even see Zhao Chen's face clearly.Only now did I realize that Zhao Chen looked even younger than him.

"Get up." Zhao Chen raised his hand to signal, and Zheng Quan immediately helped Chen Bing to sit down on the soft stool. "I don't want to go around the corner anymore. I asked you to come here because of the change in the previous incident."

"Please tell me, Your Majesty." Could it be... is he going to Nanqu to make a kiss soon?Chen Bingyuan thought that he would not have any feelings, but the regret in his heart was not left behind by him. Chen Bing was also very clear about the source of the regret.

"The plan has changed, and you don't need to sacrifice yourself to get married. But I still feel grateful for your generous help that day. Now that you have no official position, I will make you a border envoy. Although it is not a high-ranking official, it is still considered a The son inherits the father's business and is at ease, okay?"

When Chen Bing heard the phrase 'no need to make a kiss', his head exploded with a 'buzz'.He clearly knew what he was excited about. During the past few days with Ah Ruo, he was always worried that he would be asked to leave the capital suddenly. Now that he suddenly heard such good news, he didn't know what to say. alright.

"Mr. Chen, oh no, Chen Yu made this foolishly happy. He even forgot about Xie En."

Hearing Zheng Quan's reminder, Chen Bingcai hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En."

"If you get tired of living in this palace and feel homesick, tell Zheng Quan when you leave the palace, and he will arrange everything for you. If you still want to live in the palace, just stay in Feitang Palace."

Although Zhao Chen said so, Chen Bing knew that he had no room to use now, so how could he have the face to continue to live in the palace for a long time.It's His Majesty's bearing not to bother him, but he can't be self-aware.

"Your Majesty, grassroots... I will leave the palace tomorrow."

Hearing this, Zhao Chen wondered if he had misunderstood what he meant, and said, "There is no need to be so anxious, I have no intention of driving people away."

"No, it has nothing to do with His Majesty, it's the minister who wants to go back home."

-

Coming out of Zhao Chen, Chen Bing went straight back to Feitang Palace.He wanted to see A Ruo, but he was afraid that once he saw A Ruo, he would be even more reluctant to leave the palace.

But he didn't expect that after entering Feitang Palace, apart from everything he was used to seeing, there would be that person who he missed so much in the small courtyard.

"Ah Ruo?!" Chen Bing trotted to his side, "How do you know I live here?"

"If you ask me such a question as soon as you see me, it seems that you don't miss me at all." Pan Ruo pretended to be sad.It made Chen Bing feel sorry for a while, "No, I just, I was just thinking that I never told you where I live..."

"As you said, I found you when I met a kind maidservant."

"Ah Ruo..." Chen Bing hesitated for a few seconds, but still said, "I'm leaving, going out of the palace, and going back to the Chen Mansion. I'm afraid I won't be able to meet you in the future."
