Chapter 321 A Coincidence

From the capital to the Jinling City, from the Jinling City to Jiangxi, Zhu Yaojiang is getting closer and closer to Guangzhou City.

When leaving the capital, Zhu Yaojiang was helpless, sad, and painful, and finally turned into indifference, using indifference to cover up his wounded heart.

If so, Zhu Yaojiang really doesn't want to marry the enemy of the Zhu family, but Zhu Yaojiang understands that he cannot decide his own destiny.

Zhu Yaojiang once thought about death, but Zhu Yaojiang understood that it was simple for her to die, but it had a huge impact on the armistice between the Ming Dynasty and the People's Army. The Ming Dynasty needed time, and only she could buy some time for the Ming Dynasty.

In just over half a year, the girl who has been raising her in the boudoir has grown up quickly. This environment forces her to grow up. If she is still the ignorant and innocent girl, she will only be slaughtered if she leaves this "shell" that protects her.

The "bride-sending" team left the Ming Dynasty ruling area and came to the People's Army ruling area. Wang Shengrong sent the First Division of the People's Army to greet them.

After some negotiations, the Ming court's "bride-sending" team put down their things and retreated, leaving only Zhu Yaojiang and Xiang Ning, the palace maid who had been accompanying her. The First Division sent people to escort Zhu Yaojiang to continue to advance towards Guangzhou City.

Xiang Ning and Zhu Yaojiang stayed in a carriage and entered the enemy's territory. The only person they knew was left was a master and a servant. Xiang Ning was so scared that she was about to cry, but Zhu Yaojiang was constantly comforting Xiang Ning.

Zhu Yaojiang was also afraid. When he came to the enemy's territory, he had no regrets. He was surrounded by enemies, so he could only continue to walk towards the road. Zhu Yaojiang barely suppressed the fear in his heart.

It is best to marry on March 19th. When not many people in Guangzhou City knew about it, Zhu Yaojiang moved into the Grand Governor's Office.

All this is very different from what Zhu Yaojiang thought. If you marry the leader of the thief, shouldn't the thief do it? Why is it like nothing happened now, and I didn't even see the leader of the thief.

Fang Nan is still at work, but Hu Xiaoya, the principal of the girls' school, gave herself a day off to stay at home.

Hu Xiaoya met Zhu Yaojiang, and Hu Xiaoya said, "Zhu Yaojiang?"

"Who are you?"

Zhu Yaojiang was very confident in his appearance, but the woman in front of him was not inferior to his appearance. Zhu Yaojiang could not judge a person by his clothes and words. However, Zhu Yaojiang felt that the woman in front of him was extraordinary. He had just arrived at the house of the thief leader, and the enemy who appeared should be the thief's wife.

"My name is Hu Xiaoya, one of the mistresses of the Grand Governor's Office." Hu Xiaoya said to Zhu Yaojiang, then turned to the maid and the servant said, "You guys go down first."

The maids and servants all surrendered, and Xiang Ning also retreated.

"From today, you will live in the Grand Governor's Office. The room is ready for you. You don't need to worry or be afraid. No one will hurt you. You can live in the Grand Governor's Office as a guest. You can take your guards out for a walk. Don't cause trouble. If you have any questions, you can ask now and I'll answer you."

Hu Xiaoya's words made Zhu Yaojiang have many questions in her heart, and she took out her first question.

"Aren't I going to marry the Grand Governor?"

"That's true in name. Marrying the Grand Governor is the main condition for the Ming court to cease war with the People's Army. However, the Grand Governor is not interested in you and does not want to marry you, so you can rest assured to live in the Grand Governor's Office, but in name you are already one of the Grand Governor's wife."

"Since the Grand Governor doesn't want to marry me, why do you agree to a ceasefire on my condition?" Zhu Yaojiang had more questions in his heart.

"The People's Army is stronger than the Ming court. It is no problem to fight to the capital with the strength of the People's Army. However, the People's Army does not want to let too many people die in the world due to war. They plan to wait a little longer. Once the Ming court wants to truce, the People's Army also wants to truce. You are just a coincidental condition for truce."

Hu Xiaoya explained to Zhu Yaojiang indifferently. Even if this statement was passed to the Ming court, the Ming court would not dare to take the initiative to attack the People's Army, let alone Zhu Yaojiang would not be able to spread the news.

But Hu Xiaoya's words made Zhu Yaojiang feel a little broken. She originally thought that she was very important. She asked the Ming court to cease war with the People's Army and bought time for the Ming court. It turned out that she was nothing, just a coincidence. The preparations she made were useless at all, and the thief leader was unwilling to see him at all.

"You People's Army does not want the people to die because of the war. Don't you know that because of your appearance, many people have died. Without you, there will be peace in the world." Zhu Yaojiang turned the problem to the war.

"Haha" When it comes to Zhu Yao and Jiang Xin's question, Hu Xiaoya smiled and replied, "You are a princess. You have been frugal since you were a child. You can't imagine how difficult the lives of the people at the bottom are. When the Grand Governor and I lived in the mountains when we were young, we often couldn't eat enough. There were also threats from bandits. There are more people in the world who live more miserable than ours. When the disaster comes, countless people are starved to death. Forget it, don't ask such questions again. You won't understand even if you ask."

Zhu Yaojiang really couldn't understand Hu Xiaoya's answer, and Zhu Yaojiang really didn't understand how difficult the lives of the people at the bottom were. All she could see was the lives of the emperors, empresses, concubines, palace maids, and eunuchs in the imperial city.

Zhu Yaojiang said his last question, “Can you let me go home?”

"No, you are already the woman in the Governor's house. You can live in the Governor's Mansion with peace of mind, at least you can get a quiet life."

The conversation between Hu Xiaoya and Zhu Yaojiang ended, and Zhu Yaojiang seemed to be in a state of dismay, and helped Xiang Ning to where he lived in the next few years.

When he came, Zhu Yaojiang thought that he was very important. He asked the Ming Dynasty to cease the war with the thieves. From Hu Xiaoya, Zhu Yaojiang knew that he was not as important as he thought. So what use he had? The leader of the thief was unwilling to see him. His plan basically had no chance of success. What was the effort he had in the past six months?

Zhu Yaojiang felt very sad and pitiful. Only Zhu Yaojiang and Xiang Ning were left in the room. Zhu Yaojiang leaned against Xiang Ning's shoulder and cried silently, tears wetting Xiang Ning's clothes.

Faced with the princess' crying, Xiang Ning didn't know what happened or how to comfort her.

From the capital to Guangzhou City thousands of miles away, there were only two of them left. The fear in her heart had not disappeared, and Xiang Ning also started crying.

"Why? Why did God treat me like this? Woo woo"
