Chapter 432 I will always be your Ah Jiuyue
Chu Zheng was silent.
He has a deep understanding of this. He hides his identity himself, doesn’t he also want to avoid getting into trouble?
Ajiugui is a princess of a country, and Luzhou is rampant. Once his identity is exposed, let alone the thieves, Li Zicheng alone will never miss this good opportunity. Once she is captured, it will be a great blow to the Zhu Ming Dynasty.
Chu Zheng sighed in his heart and asked, "How could Your Highness leave the palace and go to this turbid and dangerous world?"
Seeing that Chu Zheng responded, Ajiu hurriedly explained: "Short long after I was born, the Imperial Heaven Supervisor gave me a divination. The hexagram was not good and said that I should not be spoiled in the palace, otherwise I would die prematurely. Therefore, my father allowed me to run around in the world outside, but every time I arranged some expert female guards to protect me."
She secretly observed Chu Zheng's expression and continued: "Old Master Cheng Qingzhu was originally the guard of his father. When I was a child, I was so playful that I learned martial arts from him. Later, he made a big mistake and was about to be beheaded. I couldn't bear it, so I secretly let him go, and was scolded by his father for this. Later, I took the guard out of the palace and went around the world. When I met him again, he was already the leader of the Qingzhu Gang."
Speaking of this, Ajiu sighed lightly: "I have been out of the palace for a long time, and I have more knowledge. I know that when there is chaos today, the people are living in a difficult situation. I often bring some gold and silver from the palace to help the poor, but there are poor people everywhere in the world. How can I help so much? So I advised my father to hope that he will be kind to the government and love the people, reduce taxes and reduce military wars."
"The father was blinded by the treacherous eunuchs, and was stubborn and could not listen to my advice at all. He believed that all officials refused to do their best for personal gain and killed ministers and generals at all. He believed that bandits were the beginning of the crisis in the country. If bandits had not caused trouble, he would have defeated Jiannu in the north long ago... Well, Jiannu has now been called the Manchu Tartars, so the father was never ruthless to bandits, and often ordered not to be captured. He would rather kill blood and stop the violence by killing them."
"Little did they know that in this way, more and more people in the world will rebel against him... Alas, why didn't he understand that bandits have also changed from the people. If the people have food, food, clothing, and clothing, who would be willing to be displaced and become bandits?"
Ajiu looked worried and continued, "I advised him a few days ago, and he lost his temper and said that the people in the world rebelled against him, and even his biological daughter rebelled against him, and wanted to put me in jail. In anger, I secretly ran away from the palace and found my master Cheng Qingzhu, followed him to the world, and then met you..."
Seeing that Chu Zheng still didn't answer, Ajiu frowned and said sadly: "Young Master, I've told you everything. Don't be angry, okay?" She stretched out her hand and gently pulled Chu Zheng's sleeve. She looked pitiful, like a puppy worried about being abandoned by her master.
Chu Zheng felt sad.
Ajiu's words confirmed his speculation. Ajiu is kind, gentle, sympathetic, and is also a girl who values love and righteousness.
This time she ran away from the palace and ran to the world, but she still did not forget her responsibilities as a member of the royal family. The moment she was recognized by the Jinyiwei, she picked up her identity and responsibility of the princess again, and did not do anything that would shame the royal family's majesty, such as Ajiu's enlightenment.
It is impossible for her to leave her father and leave everything she can withstand with him at the critical moment of this country.
If she really did this, she would not be the Ajiu that Chu Zheng knew and cherished.
Just like I can't leave the Young Marshal's Army alone, and live in seclusion with her in the mountains and forests without caring about the world.
Chu Zheng sighed in his heart, often saying that people cannot help themselves in the world, but in fact, it is not just the world. If a person lives for a lifetime, the more he pays attention to and cares about the person, the more he will be irresponsible by his own nature.
He hardened his heart and said coldly: "Your Highness, I am just a cannibal. If you call me a young master, you will kill me. If it is spread, someone will even joke that your highness does not understand the rules."
Ajiu was stunned, and an indescribable sadness surged into his heart.
She felt that she was a distance from Chu Zheng, and the two could no longer get along the same as before.
When she thought of this, she felt a big pain in her heart, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She held her back and said anxiously: "I don't care about this! Young Master, are you still angry, right? I really don't want to hide it from you, but I just haven't found a suitable opportunity to tell you, don't be angry..." After speaking, tears in her eyes rolled, and she was about to cry.
Chu Zheng was not angry about Ajiu's concealment of his identity. In fact, he is also hiding Ajiu's true identity now? He is even wearing a mask, and his true appearance has never been seen by Ajiu. He sighed: "Your Highness, we..."
"Young Master, don't call me Your Highness anymore. I'll call you Young Master. You call me Ajiu. That's what we called when we first met. I... I'll always be your Ajiu... Don't talk to me like this, okay? I... I feel so uncomfortable... Woo woo..."
Ajiu finally couldn't help it, and tears rolled down big, suddenly plunged into Chu Zheng's arms and burst into tears.
Chu Zheng was so confused that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
He knew that he shouldn't be entangled with her anymore, but listening to the pitiful cry of the girl in his arms and feeling her soft body sobbing, the iron heart in the past suddenly became nine points soft.
Chu Zheng couldn't help but secretly scolded himself for being useless. He could obviously be indifferent to other beautiful girls, so why did he retreat step by step when facing Ajiu?
"Young Master...Young Master..." Ajiu's little head was hiking around in his arms like a cat, his voice feeling pitiful.
Chu Zheng's defense was finally defeated, and he raised his hand to surrender and said, "Okay, okay, don't cry, I'll just call you Ajiu back."
"...Young Master, aren't you angry?" The girl in her arms raised her head secretly, and her black eyes covered with tears glanced up at his face, her voice as delicate and lazy as a cat.
"I wasn't angry at first... OK OK, I was bad just now, so I shouldn't treat you like this."
"Hehe, that young master is not allowed to treat me indifferently anymore." Ajiu burst into tears and smiled, showing a happy look, and the two dimples on his face were extremely cute.
Chu Zheng reached out to scratch her pink face: "Look at your crying and laughing, you don't look like the noble princess."
The intimate movements made Ajiu lower his head shyly, but his heart was sweet. The sweet and happy feeling suddenly diluted all the sadness and discomfort just now.
Only then did she notice that she was huddling in Chu Zheng's arms, her little face turned redder, she took two steps in panic, secretly glanced at Chu Zheng's face, and her heart beat faster and clearly heard in this quiet study.
She lowered her head and played with the corner of her clothes, and whispered: "Young Master, I will always be Ajiu in front of you, not a princess, you have to remember. Actually, I also know that a great hero like the Young Master will definitely not care whether I am a princess, right?"
Chu Zheng laughed silently: "How can I become a great hero?"
"I don't know either, but I just think you are a great hero, and the most powerful and powerful hero in the world... I... I seem to have seen you in my dream... But at that time... Oh, I didn't mean that!"
Ajiu suddenly realized that his words were very similar to the plot of the heroine confessing to the lover in this novel. She couldn't help but feel ashamed and dared not look up at Chu Zheng, but in her heart she couldn't help but think, isn't she really that meaning?
Is this feeling of being dizzy in a dream, and the feeling of affecting one's emotions and thoughts for a person is what the book calls "like"?
Once he realized this, Ajiu's little face turned redder.
"What does it mean?" Chu Zheng asked intentionally. Now he was basically sure, and this little girl probably liked him too.
"It's nothing..." Ajiu's hand kept clenching the corner of his skirt and loosened it. He whispered a few times, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Young master, do you still have food? You must be very hungry. I'll go and have someone to bring the supper!"
She lowered her head and ran out in panic. Chu Zheng could completely imagine her cute appearance with a blushing face. She couldn't help but raise her mouth, and the original entanglement in her heart suddenly felt relieved.
So what if Ajiu is the princess of the Zhu Ming Dynasty?
Such a cute good girl is a fool if she missed it!
As for the troubles between the two of you? Let's solve them by thinking of a way. The matter is human. I have been in the world for so many years and have been out of the dead killing game. How many times have I been able to solve Ajiu's problem? Is it more difficult to solve than those killing games?
Thinking of this, Chu Zheng suddenly felt refreshed!
The wine and food were delivered quickly. Maybe Ajiu was urging him to the point that the food was not very rich.
Ajiu asked the maids to go out and served Chu Zheng with rice. Suddenly, he burst into laughter and said, "What a young master who can open his mouth to eat."
This was exactly what the two met for the first time. Chu Zheng pretended to be a ghost and pretended to be the stupid son of the landlord. While Ajiu muttered helplessly, he still said what he said when serving his meal for him.
Chu Zheng felt warm in his heart, and he joked: "Your Highness, who can let the golden branches and jade leaves serve me with rice, must be the smoke from my ancestral grave."
Seeing that he no longer cared about his identity, Ajiu giggled: "Would you like me to feed you so that a fire could pop up in your ancestral grave!"
"Okay." Chu Zheng really put down his chopsticks and opened his mouth.
Ajiu fed him with a blushing face, stuffed the chopsticks back into his hand and said, "Master, you should eat by yourself. We have to finish our meal quickly and take the time to draw."
"draw?"
"Yes. I can't protect your paintings well and I have to re-paint them." Ajiu pointed to the desk a few steps away, and the painting tools were re-set on it: "So we have to finish dinner quickly and start painting. If we are late, it may not be up to your senior sister's birthday."
This little girl has always remembered this...
Looking at Ajiu's bright and simple smile, Chu Zheng's heart was soft and he once again strengthened his determination. If such a good girl doesn't hold her in her hand, she will be struck by lightning.
Little did he know that Ajiu was a little confused at this time.
Yes, the young master has a fiancée...will it be bad for me to like the young master again?
But then she thought, did her father not have many concubines in three palaces and six courtyards? As long as the young master's senior sister doesn't mind, it doesn't seem to be a big problem, but it's hard for her father to explain... How could a princess marry someone as a concubine? It doesn't seem that a common wife can't be done. As for being a wife, isn't this robbing the position of the young master's senior sister? No, no...
Oh, what am I thinking? The young master didn't say he liked me.
So Chu Zheng saw the little Ajiu sitting opposite him look happy, worried and embarrassed, extremely interesting.
After the two of them had supper, Ajiu pulled Chu Zheng to the desk and urged him to start painting.
...
The night outside the window became darker and darker, and the originally noisy streets began to quiet down.
As the night passed, the sky gradually became brighter and a morning glow appeared in the east.
Chu Zheng's painting was finally finished.
Ajiu rubbed his sore hands, put down his brush, observed Chu Zheng's painting with his red eyes, and said happily: "Young Master, this time the painting is better than last time. Your senior sister will definitely like it very much. I will ask someone to blow it dry and frame it, and let someone prepare breakfast by the way."
Ajiuhuan jumped around and walked out with the painting, but Chu Zheng's heart was filled with pity and emotion.
All night, Ajiu still guided him to draw the picture of "Snow Scenery in the River and Mountains" carefully and stroked and re-drawn the picture of "River and Mountain Snow Scenery" like during the day. He would hold his hand and draw it together in the key places, so busy that he didn't even have to take a sip of water.
Chu Zheng couldn't help but sigh that this little girl is so lovable.
Breakfast was delivered soon, and it was more hearty than last night's dinner.
"Master, this roast chicken is not as good as the time you roasted it."
"...I just baked it casually at that time. This one should be made by the chef. I think it tastes better."
"No, the roast chicken that the young master roasted that night was the best!"
"Yes, yes. His Royal Highness the Princess said everything is right."
"Young Master, are you making fun of me?"
"No, I'm praising you."
"Hmph...ah, this is delicious, Master, please try this sweet and sour tenderloin."
I don’t know if it was Chu Zheng’s illusion. At this time, Ajiufen was so fond of talking and also stuck to him, and kept sitting next to him to pick up food for him.
Chu Zheng thought for a while and understood: "Ajiu, you will go back to Jinling City later?"
Ajiu's movements froze, and the smile on her little face disappeared. She slowly put down her chopsticks and whispered: "Well... I heard from the General Qinyiwei that Mr. Hong said that my father was worried that I had not slept for many days and had good food... He had eaten less and had little sleep and was not very good. I had to go back and see him. Alas, my father was sometimes stubborn like a child, and he refused to drink medicine when he was sick. Every time I asked me to persuade him, he could only drink it. And the queen, every time I left the palace, she would be worried about her heart. I... I can't rest assured to them..."
She glanced at Chu Zheng and said reluctantly: "Just Mr. Hong said just now that the escort car drivers are ready, I have to go back after I finish this breakfast."
Chu Zheng felt reluctant to leave, but he also knew that Ajiu had made up his mind, not to mention that his parents were in the church, it was a good thing to be able to fulfill his filial piety.
He nodded and said, "Yes, you should go back early to see your family. Is the guards enough?"
"Enough, General Secretary Hong has mobilized three thousand soldiers." Ajiu responded softly, suddenly looked up and looked at him expectantly: "Young Master, will you come to Jinling City in the future?"
Chu Zheng understood what she meant and was asking himself if he would go to see her.
Chu Zheng thought about it and found that he had a lot of things to do next. He stayed with Guo Xiangcheng for a while, and then went to Chang'an with Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling to get out of Yang Gong's treasure house, and also had to rectify his arms to deal with the invasion of the Li family... He thought about it carefully for a while before saying, "I may not be able to take time off recently. In half a year, depending on the situation, I will come if I can."
"It will take half a year..." Ajiu's little face couldn't hide his disappointment: "That's it... where will you go next?"
