"That's nonsense. How could you get engaged again so soon?" Wang Xiaoyao said.
Chu Zishan said nervously: "If the emperor doesn't believe it, call Gu Yimo and ask him."
"Uh, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Li bowed to the Emperor: "Old minister, Miss Meng Chu rescued me. My old wife went to the Hou Mansion to thank her. By chance, she met Gu Yimo who went to the Chu family to propose marriage. When my wife came back, she talked to the old minister about it.
.”
Chu Zishan looked at Prime Minister Li and nodded gratefully.
The emperor smiled and said: "It seems that this is true. That Shang Lord Gu Yimo is indeed a good son."
"No, I want her to be my concubine, even a cheap concubine." King Xiaoyao jumped on his feet and shouted.
The emperor smiled coquettishly: "Xi'er, Miss Chu has apologized to you. The eldest princess is right. Miss Chu is loyal. As a royal, you must be broad-minded. I will find other ways to make up for the injustice you have suffered...
…”
King Xiaoyao pointed at everyone angrily: "You, you are all bullying me, a helpless orphan. Chu Zishan, you just wait for me, today's business is not over yet."
He glared at Chu Zishan fiercely, ran down the stairs angrily, and walked away.
The emperor shook his head helplessly: "Fu'an, hurry up and check on King Xiaoyao. He is not in good health. Don't let him hurt you."
The chamberlain Fu'an responded and hurried after him.
"Okay, it's just a misunderstanding. Let the banquet continue." The emperor waved his hand.
Chu Zishan helped the eldest princess sit back in her seat. She saw King Xiaoyao standing outside the hall door, smiling sadly at her.
That ferocious scarred face and sinister smile made her hair stand on end.
She suddenly thought about how her treacherous enemy could let the same mask appear in front of her, and she felt inexplicably as if she had fallen into a trap set by King Xiaoyao.
She turned to look at the aloof Emperor Daxia... Anyone who sat in that position was ruthless.
Before she died in her previous life, Liu Jing's words were the emperor's masterpiece towards her Chu family.
He could abandon loyal ministers and good generals as if they were worn out shoes, so how could he have any kindness towards the late emperor's legitimate son?
So, King Xiaoyao used her help to eliminate the Emperor of Daxia's suspicion of him?
Thinking about it now, King Xiaoyao looked at her provocatively, deliberately irritating her, and she acted impulsively and fell into the trap of her enemy.
She had to be extremely careful with these scheming schemers, otherwise she wouldn't know how they died.
Champion residence.
Mrs. Chu He paced back and forth outside the mansion, looking towards the avenue from time to time, with a look of anxiety and panic.
Early in the morning, Aunt Zhao reported to her that Chu Zishan went to Jixia Academy in white instead of the brocade clothes she had prepared, which frightened her out of her wits.
I sent a servant to the school to inquire about it, and just came back to report that the banquet was over, but an hour has passed and my daughter has not come back yet.
She became more and more worried that her daughter's white clothes would definitely bring trouble to the Chu family, and she scolded this careless idiot a thousand times in her heart.
"A carriage is coming." Aunt Zhao pointed to the road.
Mrs. Chu He saw two carriages, one in front and one behind. The one in front was her own carriage, and the carriage in the back was very large and gorgeous. It was actually a royal carriage. Her heart was filled with excitement.
The carriage stopped in front of the Champion's Mansion, and Chu Zishan got off the royal carriage.
The eldest princess lifted the curtains of the car and ordered the nun in charge: "Take the emperor's reward into the palace."
Chu Zishan smiled warmly and made a daughter's gift: "Thank you, the eldest princess, for sending me off."
"The eldest princess!"
Mrs. Chu He hurriedly walked down the steps and bowed deeply: "I have seen the eldest princess, but I didn't know that the eldest princess was coming. I hope you will forgive me for being so far away."
The eldest princess smiled lightly: "I want to bring Zishan back on a whim. How can I blame you? Zishan is very good, and it all depends on your mother's good teaching."
Mrs. Chu He smiled awkwardly: "If you don't mind, the eldest princess, please come and sit in the mansion..."
"No need, I'm feeling tired, so I'm going back now," the eldest princess said.
Mrs. Chu He bowed respectfully: "My wife, I would like to send you the eldest princess."
"By the way, the Emperor will celebrate my birthday next month, so please bring Zishan with you," said the eldest princess.
"Okay, I will definitely go, I will definitely go."
When the eldest princess invited the Chu He family, they were overjoyed and bowed to the eldest princess repeatedly.
Chu Zishan watched the eldest princess's carriage leave, and saw two carriages parked next door to the Marquis Mansion. The servants and the nursing staff were moving things. She thought to herself, next door was the minister of the Ministry of Justice who had been promoted and was moving away?
It didn't matter, she turned around and walked into the Houfu without thinking deeply.
Chu He didn't turn around until the eldest princess's carriage disappeared. She wanted to question Chu Zishan about the white clothes, but she had already disappeared.
"This dead girl..."
She couldn't understand this daughter more and more.
In the past, Chu Zishan was reckless and impulsive. Every time he came home, he would make a huge fuss just to make her angry.
When he came back this time, he was surprisingly quiet. When he looked at her, there was no hatred in his eyes, but a coldness that made his heart feel still, as if he was calm and calm after going through many vicissitudes of life.
What she didn't expect was that her daughter had made friends with a big shot without even realizing it.
I saved the Prime Minister just a few days ago, and the Prime Minister's wife came to thank her. Today, she was sent back by the eldest princess. The eldest princess even encouraged her to attend the birthday banquet. What an honor it is.
Everything her daughter did was beneficial to the Marquis, and she was both surprised and pleased. She thought that her daughter had finally grown up and learned how to bring honor to the family.
Mrs. Chu He happily walked into the second door and saw Ms. Ning walking around several mahogany boxes given by the emperor, with unconcealable greed on her face.
The smile on her face suddenly faded, and her brows turned into knots. This chapter has been completed!
