Chapter 604 It's a pity he died young.
"is it?"
King Tsukikawa's gaze was peaceful, possessing a magical quality that made people unable to help but trust him.
Yin Yueling nodded hurriedly: "She is my good friend. She knows acupuncture, which is very useful."
Yin Yueling thought that King Yuechuan seemed like a very good person, but you can't judge a book by its cover. She didn't understand those complicated things. She entered the palace to find out useful information, so what could be more useful than bringing Lu Yangyang into the palace directly?
She dared not rashly tell King Yuechuan about the Crown Prince or anything like that, after all, Mingruo was a descendant of King Yuechuan's elder brother, and who knew if there were any more complicated matters involved!
Let Lu Yangyang figure it out herself!
"In that case, tomorrow I will have someone accompany you out of the palace to invite her in for a visit," said King Yuechuan.
Yin Yueling quickly replied, "No problem, leave it to me!"
King Yuechuan looked at her with a gentle smile, like an approachable elder.
After saying all this, King Yuechuan showed no intention of letting Yin Yueling leave. Instead, he began to tell her some secrets of Gu techniques, just like a teacher. Yin Yueling came to Yuechuan Kingdom to learn more powerful Gu techniques. Now that someone like King Yuechuan was willing to teach her everything, she naturally couldn't miss it and quickly became immersed in learning.
As night fell, a maid came to report, "Your Majesty, the welcoming banquet is ready."
King Yuechuan then got up, not forgetting to instruct the palace servants to take good care of Yin Yueling, and said to Yin Yueling, "Do your homework well today, I will check it myself tomorrow."
Yin Yueling nodded excitedly: "I understand, thank you, Master!"
"Master?" King Yuechuan paused slightly as he uttered the title.
Yin Yueling blinked her eyes: "You taught me Gu techniques, so aren't you my master?"
Then he knelt down and solemnly bowed three times to King Yuechuan: "Master, please accept my three bows."
King Yuechuan looked at that tender, young face and was slightly dazed for a moment. "Very well, it can be considered our fate. I have never taken on a disciple in my life, so I will take you in."
Yin Yueling said happily, "Thank you, Master!"
King Yuechuan left, supported by a palace maid.
At the welcoming banquet, palace servants led Mingruo and Zongque to their seats. Mingruo turned to look at Zongque, clearly somewhat uneasy, and whispered, "Aque..."
Zong Que poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him: "Try it."
Mingruo took the tea, about to say something, when a palace servant announced from outside.
"King Yuechuan has arrived."
King Yuechuan walked in, supported by a palace servant. Mingruo was so nervous that she knocked over her teacup, spilling tea all over herself.
King Yuechuan looked over and gently instructed the palace servants, "Take the young master to the side hall to change his clothes."
Mingruo subconsciously looked at Zong Que, who nodded slightly. Mingruo cupped her hands and apologized to King Yuechuan: "Please forgive me, King Yuechuan, I was impolite."
King Yuechuan said gently, "It's alright."
Mingruo left with the palace servants. King Yuechuan's gaze fell on Zong Que, looking at his cane lying to the side. "You came for the Longevity Gu?"
"Zong Que greets King Yuechuan." Zong Que bowed respectfully.
“Zong Que,” King Yuechuan murmured his name, “the Crown Prince of Da Zhao. He is said to have passed away last year, but I suppose no one would dare to impersonate him.”
"What brings the Crown Prince here?"
King Yuechuan quietly looked at Zong Que.
Zong Que smiled faintly, sat down and poured himself a glass of wine: "Come and ask King Yuechuan why he agreed to cooperate with my elder brother Zong Ke from the inside and outside to send troops to Yuechuan? What did he promise you? Yuechuan has a rugged terrain. Even if it submits to Da Zhao, it will not benefit either side in the short term. So why is King Yuechuan so determined to start a war?"
King Yuechuan, supported by a palace attendant, walked to his seat. A giant cyan python slowly crawled to the throne. King Yuechuan leaned lazily against the python and looked at Zong Que with interest: "It's a pity that His Highness the Crown Prince is a step too late, but it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter who I cooperate with. If Your Highness is interested, I am willing to cooperate."
"Forty years ago, Prince Mingjing, Ming Qi, died on the battlefield. After his death, Princess Mingjing gave birth to a daughter, but died in childbirth. Her daughter, Ming Yuezhi, was adopted by the late Emperor of Dazhao." Zong Que said slowly, "When Prince Mingjing was alive, he started from a lowly soldier, took command of the military power in the southwest, and helped the late Emperor ascend the throne. His contributions were indispensable."
"Prince Jing of Ming was a brilliant military strategist who repeatedly achieved extraordinary feats, but unfortunately he died young."
