Everything seems to have settled.
A gloomy arc flashed across the corner of King Chen's mouth.
He never expected that when he thought he was finally free, entering the palace to attend the Qianqiu Banquet was not the Qianqiu Banquet for his mother and concubine, but the Qianqiu Banquet for the Empress to regain power.
He didn't expect that during the days of his confinement, Rong Cang had already taken a few people to Shuozhou. Not only did he investigate the case of falsely reporting the disaster, but he also made another great achievement, and even made the Gu family take the initiative to hand over five hundred yuan. Ten thousand taels of silver.
Five million taels...
King Chen couldn't figure it out, how could his uncle let such a thing happen?
Why didn't he send someone to kill Rong Cang and Qi Jin? Why should we give them a chance to return to the imperial city?
Are all the Gu family members useless? !
King Chen closed his eyes hard, his heart aching with hatred.
Letting Rong Cang return to the imperial city alive was the most wrong decision made by the head of the Gu family. It was so wrong.
After taking care of Prince Yu and Duke Protector’s Mansion, what’s next?
Will Rong Cang push him and Prime Minister Jiang completely into despair?
A Qianqiu banquet gave the queen a son and made Rong Cang his legitimate son, but he, the king of Chen, became the laughing stock.
King Chen squeezed the wine cup in his hand tightly, almost grinding his teeth with hatred.
"What happened to the sixth brother?" The third prince, who was titled Prince Heng, came over and sat down with a wine cup in hand. "The ninth brother was adopted as his legitimate son. Are you unhappy?"
King Chen glanced at him coldly.
It’s so obvious that you know what you’re asking.
Who was there who didn't see the dispute between him and Rong Cang just now? Qi Jin's words to criticize him were heard by anyone who was not deaf.
Why is Prince Heng pretending to be stupid when he comes here now?
King Chen said coldly: "If it were you, would you be happy?"
"Of course I'm happy." Prince Heng nodded, "It's a pity that I'm not very capable and the queen doesn't look down on me."
King Chen's face darkened.
He substituted himself into the adopted War King?
It's really whimsical.
"The sixth brother and the ninth brother are brothers. Even if the ninth brother is adopted by the queen and becomes the legitimate son, it will not be a bad thing for the sixth brother." Prince Heng said calmly, "You are brothers who have broken bones and connected tendons. , Sixth brother can actually be more open-minded. If you start being nice to ninth brother now and influence him with sincerity, ninth brother will probably not treat you harshly when he reaches a high position in the future."
King Chen was slightly startled when he heard this, and then felt ridiculous.
Does he mean that he, the royal brother, needs to please Rong Cang in order to live safely for the rest of his life?
King Chen thought of the extremely different treatment between him and Rong Cang when he was young. One was as noble as gold and the other was as humble as dust. How had he ever thought that one day he would be inferior to Rong Cang?
Let him please Rong Cang?
Simply the funniest joke in the world.
King Chen turned his head and looked coldly at the queen's seat.
The Queen, who used to be cold and silent, seems to be having a smoother life these days. Her face is much rosier, her eyebrows and eyes look so good, her whole figure seems to be several years younger, and she can't suppress the smile at the corner of her mouth.
Compared with the queen's triumph, his mother-in-law is still locked up in Zhaochen Palace and has no freedom at all.
And Concubine De...
Thinking of Concubine De, King Chen's heart slowly sank to the bottom, and he couldn't help but feel fear.
Are Prince Yu and Duke Protector's Palace finished?
How much evidence does Rong Cang have in his hands?
Will he touch the Gu family?
What did he do in Shuozhou? What agreement did you reach with the Gu family?
Because of this complete ignorance, King Chen rarely felt a powerless despair and uneasiness.
He turned his eyes slightly and looked at Jiang Ying in the west hall from a distance, wanting to give her a look. However, under Rong Jinyue's force, Jiang Ying reluctantly got up and walked to the main hall to express her congratulations to the queen. , unable to receive the sight he cast at all.
"Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Queen Mother." Rong Jinyue saluted respectfully, "The Queen Mother has lived in poverty for many years, and now she is blessed with a legitimate son. She finally got her wish. I am happy for the Queen Mother, and also for the Nine Emperor Brothers and the Nine Emperors. The emperor's wife is happy."
After saying that, Rong Jinyue glanced at Chu Yunfei, who was sitting next to the Queen, and bowed her eyebrows again: "Congratulations, Sister-in-law of the Nine Emperors."
Several other princesses followed to express their congratulations.
"I also congratulate the empress." Concubine Xiao came over and saluted the empress with a sincere smile. "From now on, the empress has a capable son and a gentle and filial daughter-in-law. I am really Extremely envious."
The queen smiled and said, "It's good that you have two caring daughters."
"It's indeed good." Concubine Xiao nodded.
The two daughters were born well and married well. After marriage, they lived a simple and warm life with their consort. She did not have to participate in any fights in the palace and was comfortable.
People, in fact, as long as you don’t have too much greed, you can live well no matter what.
After Princess Chen expressed her sincere congratulations, her eyes naturally fell on Chu Yunfei. When she saw her clinging to the queen's side, looking considerate and respectful, she felt jealous and disdainful in her heart.
Because the imperial concubine didn't like her, she hugged the queen's thigh.
Are you really a mother if you have breasts?
And Rong Cang, who even refused to recognize his biological mother in order to fight for the throne, how can he have any moral integrity?
It's so sad and ridiculous.
"You guys stay here to get together. There is a family dinner tonight. It will be lively and lively in the evening." The queen was in a good mood today. Seeing all her colleagues, she was extremely gentle. "The fifth princess and the second girl Jiang have a rest today. There is no need to go." Learn the rules from the nanny."
Rong Jinyue knelt down and saluted: "Thank you, Queen Mother."
Jiang Qian then knelt down and thanked her.
"Mother, the princesses and I will go sit in the west hall first." Chu Yunfei stood up and knelt down to the queen, with a smile that was a bit like a daughter's. "It's rare for them to enter the palace."
The queen joked: "I thought you couldn't wait to meet Rong Cang for a reunion."
Chu Yunfei's face turned red: "It's not too late to go home and get together after the dinner."
The queen laughed: "Go and have fun."
The friendship between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is really enviable, as relaxed as mother and daughter.
Jiang Ying was so jealous that she almost crushed the handkerchief in her hands.
She couldn't help but think of her relationship with the imperial concubine. Although they were affectionate when they got along, there was always a layer of rules between them.
The imperial concubine is always aloof. No matter how favored she is as a daughter-in-law, she is still favored by her husband. When speaking in front of the imperial concubine, she must be coaxing and respectful, and the imperial concubine... the imperial concubine has never been so approachable.
What unknown ability does Chu Yunfei have that can make the queen be so gentle to her?
