Princess Consort Is No Pushover

Chu Xuanchen said: "This king doesn't mean that. I'm just afraid that you will get hurt, so your sister will also be worried."

"Don't be afraid, I will protect her, don't worry." Xue Wuxia patted her chest and said.

At this time, Elder Lin said anxiously: "My lord, I heard that the saint was taken away, do you know who took her away?"

Chu Xuanchen said coldly: "It should be Long Qianche. Wuxia, elder, tell me, what is the big event that will happen in Xueyue Kingdom in a month's time?"

Xue Wuxia and Elder Lin looked at each other, and said, "There is nothing to hide now! Let us tell you!"

Speaking of this, Xue Wuxia sighed, and said: "It's actually like this. In our country, there is an underground palace full of treasures. Every hundred years, we can open the palace and take out the treasures for the common people to enjoy. But this palace can only be opened by saintesses, and it will be a hundred years in just over a month. If you miss this time, you will not be able to open the palace, so Long Qianche is eager to take Yue'er away."

Elder Lin said: "Over the years, our country's national strength has been weakening, and the people are very poor, and they are miserable. Now it's almost a hundred years, so everyone has high hopes for the saint. Everyone hopes that the saint can open the underground palace and take out Wealth, improving everyone's life."

"So that's how it is. The queen was once a saint, so it's fine to let her open it. Why does it have to be Yue'er?" Chu Xuanchen said.

Xue Wuxia said: "It's like this. Only saintesses under the age of eighteen can open the underground palace. Counting the time, on the day of the hundredth year, Yue'er will be eighteen years old, so only she can open it."

"Now the people are looking forward to the saint. If the saint can open the underground palace, then she is the god of Xueyue Kingdom. So please rest assured, if the high priest kidnaps her, at least the high priest will not open the underground palace. Hurt her." Elder Lin said.

"Then what if she can't open the underground palace?" Chu Xuanchen said coldly.

Elder Lin's expression tightened, and he hesitated, "This..."

"I'm afraid everyone will be disappointed in her by then. She will fall from the clouds, right?" Chu Xuanchen said.

Such a lofty status is actually a double-edged sword.

If Yue'er can open the underground palace and let everyone gain wealth, then the people will naturally support her.

Once she can't open the underground palace and let the people continue to suffer, I'm afraid everyone will spurn her.

He didn't want Yue'er to shoulder such a heavy task at all.

Yue'er should be relaxed and happy, and should not carry such heavy shackles.

It seems that he has to find Yue'er as soon as possible so that he can protect her then.

Seeing that Chu Xuanchen was very worried, Xue Wuxia hurriedly comforted him, "Brother-in-law, you are worrying too much! No matter whether Yue'er can open the underground palace or not, she is the belief of Xueyue Kingdom. Don't worry, my mother and I will protect her!"

Speaking of this, he said again: "It's not too late, it's important that we save Yue'er first. Long Qianche must have taken her captive to Xueyue Kingdom. I am very familiar with Xueyue Kingdom, so I will take you there."

"Okay, Xuan Ce's army is ready, let's set off immediately." Chu Xuanchen said anxiously.

Just like that, Chu Xuanchen led two thousand Xuan Ce troops, as well as Shen Chengshan and others, rode on horses, and galloped towards Xueyue Kingdom.

Along the way, he was very nervous.

Yue'er doesn't know martial arts, her body is thin, and her physique is poor. He is really afraid that something will happen to her.

If something happens to her, what's the point of his life?

Thinking of this, he was even more indignant, and the speed of pursuit was also faster.

On the other side, as soon as Prince Rui's spies saw Chu Xuanchen leaving the city, they immediately told Prince Rui about it.

After hearing this, Prince Rui immediately went to the palace and reported the matter to Emperor Hongyuan.

In the imperial study room, when Emperor Hongyuan heard that Chu Xuanchen had led troops out of the city without authorization, he was so angry that he brushed the scroll on the imperial case to the ground, furious, "Well, he is Chu Xuanchen, he is so bold that he doesn't have my soldier talisman." , He dared to send troops out of the city privately. What does he want to do? Does he want to rebel?"

A smug flash of pride flashed in Prince Rui's eyes, and he said sullenly: "Father, I heard that Princess Li was kidnapped by people from Xueyue Kingdom. In a hurry, Prince Li led his troops to rescue her. You can't transfer troops without permission, it's a serious crime of treason."

Emperor Hongyuan said angrily, "You're right. Without my other half of the Tiger Talisman, he, Chu Xuanchen, was able to mobilize the Xuance Army, which means that these Xuance Army only recognize him and not me. These soldiers only recognize generals, not me. Emperor, it means that Chu Xuanchen has more prestige in the army than I do, it is unreasonable!"

"Father, please calm down." Prince Rui said, "Yun Ruoyue is the saintess of Xueyue Kingdom, and now Chu Xuanchen leads troops to pursue Xueyue Kingdom. He is a great general of a country, yet he brings so many soldiers to Xueyue Kingdom , if he colludes with Queen Xueyue to rebel, it will be bad!"

Emperor Hongyuan said, "He brought two thousand troops, so it is unlikely that he will collude with Queen Xueyue. But he has violated a big taboo by deploying troops privately, and I will not spare him this time."

Prince Rui said: "Besides, I heard that Vice General Shen also went with him! The dignified Vice General, who didn't stay in the barracks, dared to go out with Chu Xuanchen privately, they simply didn't take you seriously!"

"Deputy General Shen?" Emperor Hongyuan narrowed his eyes viciously when he mentioned the name, "Before I transferred Shen Chengshan to be the envoy of Luanyi, and then Chu Xuanchen pleaded with him many times, and kept telling me that his military ability is very good. Strong, I transferred him back to the barracks again. I didn't expect him to leave with Chu Xuanchen not long after returning to the barracks. This time, I can't spare him either!"

Prince Rui raised his eyelids, and said: "Chu Xuanchen was not only able to mobilize the army, but also made these generals follow him wholeheartedly. He did not hesitate to disobey the emperor's orders because of him. It can be seen that he has already supported his troops and covered the sky with one hand."

Hearing this, Emperor Hongyuan was even more angry, he said angrily: "Come here, make an order immediately to call King Li back to me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Xu said.

Seeing Emperor Hongyuan's face full of anger, Prince Rui's eyes flashed a glint of complacency.

This time, even if he did not die, Chu Xuanchen would have to shed a layer of skin.

-

Two days later, Chu Xuanchen led people to chase him to Qizhou in Chu State.

Their team hadn't rested for two days. Chu Xuanchen felt very distressed when he saw that the soldiers were exhausted, so he decided to camp at the edge of Qizhou city to rest.

After everyone had rested, they set off again.

In fact, Chu Xuanchen didn't close his eyes for the past two days and two nights.

Thinking of Yue'er's whereabouts were unknown, he was worried and anxious. He couldn't eat or sleep at all. Even his chin was covered with stubble.

While taking a break, Mo Li walked over.

Mo Li said: "My lord, my subordinates have received news that in the past few days someone has indeed discovered that a group of Xueyue people with suspicious appearances are heading towards the direction of Xueyue Kingdom."
