Chapter 313 - Do your best
"Grandpa, why are you kneeling here? Get up quickly." Song Yunli hurriedly tried to help Mu Chen up, but was rejected by him.
"Zi Yan, are you still blaming grandpa in your heart?" Mu Chen's eyes were full of struggle. He was so cruel to this child in the past, and now he has the nerve to come and beg her with his old face. He blushed just thinking about it.
"I don't blame you. I came back this time to repay you for raising me all these years. From now on, I will have nothing to do with the Mu family. I'm leaving now!" After he finished speaking, he pulled Feng Muyan to leave, but Mu Chen pulled at the corner of his clothes, and he couldn't help but frowned his handsome black eyebrows.
"Zi Yan, Dongchu can be said to be your second hometown. The people of Dongchu also respect and worship you as a god. Can you bear to watch them struggle under the iron hoof of Chunan Kingdom? Don't you want to do your part for Dongchu?" Mu Chen said with tears in his eyes, shaking his beard.
Song Yunli paused and turned to look at Mu Chen. She had been with Mu Chen for eight years and had seen many sides of him: serious, disrespectful, and kind. But she had never seen him like this before. What on earth had happened? What did it mean to struggle under Chu Nan's iron hoof?
"Grandpa, what do you mean?"
"Li'er, after the defeat of Nanyue, the Kingdom of Chu Nan has turned its attention to Dong Chu. Now, Chu Nan's army has reached the border of Dong Chu. The situation of Dong Chu is worrying!" Feng Muyan said.
Song Yunli took two steps back in disbelief. Is Gu Liuqing crazy? Why is he so keen on war? Isn't it enough to fight with Nanyue for so long? He actually came to Dongchu so soon. Has he forgotten that Chu Yuhuan is his cousin? Dongchu is actually related to him.
"Grandpa, what can a little girl like me do? You may have found the wrong person."
"Zi Yan, you grew up under my watch. How could I not know all the twists and turns in your heart? If you are willing to join forces with the God of War of Nanyue in front of you, protecting the people of Dongchu will be no problem at all." Mu Chen said with shining eyes.
Feng Muyan glanced at Mu Chen, who was kneeling on the ground, with deep meaning. His opinion of Chu Yuhuan changed a little, and he was able to win people's hearts.
Song Yunli then realized that her grandfather was impressed by Amu's abilities and had even praised her in a roundabout way before.
Feng Muyan sneered, took Song Yunli's hand, turned around and left, ignoring Mu Chen's shouting.
But the two did not expect that there was another checkpoint ahead.
Chu Yuhuan looked at the two people who were getting closer and closer to him with struggling eyes. Finally, he took a deep breath, lowered his head slightly, and clasped his fists.
"Zi Yan, for the sake of the people of Dong Chu, please help persuade the Ninth Prince to stay!"
"Your Majesty, this is really putting things in a difficult position. After all, Amu is the prince of Nanyue. How can you let him fight for Dongchu on the battlefield? How do you want the people of Nanyue to see him?" Song Yunli protected Feng Muyan like an old hen, her words full of defense for him.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuhuan's eyes flashed with disappointment.
"Because he is the son-in-law of my Dongchu Kingdom!"
Song Yunli and Feng Muyan looked at each other in confusion.
"Just now, I have conferred upon you the title of Princess Protector of the East Chu Kingdom, and the Ninth Prince has been conferred the title of Prince Consort Protector of the Country. You have the obligation to contribute to the East Chu Kingdom." Chu Yuhuan said very seriously.
"We haven't received any orders either..." Song Yunli said helplessly.
At this moment, Mu Chen came running over from behind, took out an imperial edict from his arms and handed it to Song Yunli.
"Zi Yan, Grandpa accidentally helped you accept this imperial decree, please don't blame Grandpa."
