Collegiality?
Qi Jin knew in his heart that the emperor wanted them to work well for the King of War in the future and to strictly enforce their position.
But at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder, had the emperor not given up on marrying him and the Xie family girl, so he asked him and Xie Lin to walk around more in order to observe the character of the Xie family?
Don't blame him for being so preoccupied, the truth is that the emperor's mind is elusive, and it doesn't hurt to think twice about it occasionally.
"What are you still doing here?" Emperor Mu couldn't help frowning when he saw him in a daze, "Let Taifu and the others come in."
"yes."
Thinking of the middle-aged and elderly ministers who were still waiting outside, Qi Jin stopped talking and quickly bowed and left.
Rong Cang walked out of the Qinzheng Hall and signaled to several ministers.
"Prince Rong said that heroes come from young, and this is true." Uncle Xie Daguo looked at the young people in front of him with a happy smile on his face, "If the young masters of the Chu Kingdom can be as outstanding as you, what will happen to the Chu Kingdom?" The country will definitely become more stable and the country will become more prosperous."
"Uncle Da Guo praised me." Qi Jinshi saluted, "The reason why outstanding people become outstanding is because there are too many mediocre people to bring out our excellence. If everyone is so outstanding, it will make us look like we are the best." It’s mediocre.”
Uncle Xie Guo and Prince Rong looked at each other, speechless for a moment, and quickly walked into the palace to pay their respects to the emperor.
Heroes emerge from youth.
Not only are these young men super capable, but they are also sharp-tongued. They are no match for them.
After the few people left, they went about their own business. Qi Jin followed Xie Lin to the Ministry of Punishment, while the two princes Rong Cang and Qi Ba returned to Chonghua Hall.
Everyone in Chonghua Hall has almost left.
In the evening, there is a banquet at the emperor's family, and no one else needs to be present.
So Qin Zhilan had resigned and left with her mother, and Mrs. Xie had also left. Several princesses and consorts got the queen's permission to go to the back garden to enjoy the flowers.
Xie Danshu and Chu Yunfei stayed with the queen.
What is surprising is that King Chen and Princess Chen have not left yet.
Rong Cang ignored the looks from everyone, walked up to the queen, lifted up his robe and knelt down, and solemnly saluted the queen: "I have been away from the capital these days. Thanks to the care of my mother, Yun Fei is safe and sound. Thank you very much, my queen. Let the queen mother worry about it."
"Get up quickly." The queen mother's eyes fell on his face, with some uncontrollable emotions in her eyes, "Yun Fei is my daughter-in-law, and the child in her belly is my grandson. It is my duty to take care of them. I have done my duty, are you saying that you treat me like an outsider?"
"My son is not——"
"Okay, okay." The queen stood up, holding Chu Yunfei in one arm and Xie Danshu in the other. "Since you are here, follow me to Shuhuang Palace to sit. The place here is too big, and I feel it is difficult to talk. convenient."
"yes."
The concubines stood up and sent the queen off.
"Mother." King Chen pulled Princess Chen over and hurried over, knelt down and saluted, "My son, I want to ask my mother for something."
The queen looked down at the two of them with a faint expression: "Do you want to see your mother and concubine?"
"Yes." King Chen lowered his head with a humble attitude, "I haven't seen my mother and concubine for a long time. Today, my mother adopted Rong Cang as her son. As my mother's son, I should of course inform my mother and concubine. Mother allows it."
The queen frowned, a trace of disgust flashing in her eyes.
Thinking of the imperial concubine's abuse of Rong Cang for so many years, she wished they could separate mother and son forever and never have the chance to see each other again in this life.
The queen was about to speak when she noticed that Chu Yunfei squeezed her hand quietly. She turned to look at Chu Yunfei and saw her nodding her head in a subtle way.
The queen knew what she was thinking about, and then nodded slowly: "You should tell her that you and your wife can go to see the concubine, but you can't bring more people with you. Mother and son can't talk for more than one stick of incense, otherwise the emperor will blame me. There is nothing the palace can do to cover it up for you."
After that, he turned around and ordered: "Baoyuan, take the key and take King Chen to meet his mother and concubine."
"Thank you very much, Queen Mother." King Chen bowed respectfully and thanked you, "I will take my leave now."
The queen hummed and stood quietly. It wasn't until Prince Chen and his wife turned around and walked out of the palace door and disappeared from sight that she looked away: "Yun Fei."
Chu Yunfei said calmly: "Everyone in Zhaochen Palace has been transferred away. Mo Xue, go and take care of her. Don't let anyone rush into the imperial concubine."
"yes."
The queen didn't say anything more and walked towards Chonghua Hall.
When there was no one around, Chu Yunfei said: "There are no extra people to serve in Zhaochen Palace now. After Gu Guifei met with King Chen, she would have revealed a lot of secrets in her excitement. Mo Xue is good at hiding, and she happens to be a A good time to hear secrets.”
The queen couldn't help but praise: "Rong Cang is really discerning, and he has married a good wife who is smart and smart."
Rong Cang followed the two of them, listening to their conversation, and nodded in response: "Yes, Yun Fei has always been the smartest."
Chu Yunfei turned around and glared at him angrily: "The Queen Mother praises me because she likes me. You are not ashamed to praise me."
"What I said is the truth, what is there to be ashamed of?" Rong Cang couldn't help laughing, "Does Fei'er think that she is not smart?"
Xie Danshu looked at the King of War with some surprise.
This was the first time she had seen such a peaceful and gentle King of War. In the past, Rong Cang had always been cold and distant, making people feel uncomfortable getting close to him. Every time he appeared in front of others, he always had a sense of being repulsive and distant. of indifference.
I didn't expect him to be so gentle in front of Princess Zhan.
Returning to Shuhuang Palace, the Queen stopped and told Xie Danshu and Chu Yunfei: "You go and play for a while. I have something to say to the King of War."
"yes."
The queen is the master of the harem.
Shuhuang Palace is the most noble residence among all palaces in the harem, and the back garden is naturally very beautifully maintained.
Xie Danshu and Chu Yunfei were walking in the small garden and couldn't help but ask: "On weekdays at home, do the King of War and the Princess get along like this?"
Chu Yunfei nodded: "Absolutely."
"It's really enviable." Xie Danshu smiled lightly, "If every couple is so warm, who would resist getting married?"
When Chu Yunfei heard this, he couldn't help but said: "Qi Jin's character is actually not bad."
"It's not a matter of good character, but whether there is fate." Xie Danshu shook her head, "You and King Zhan really love each other and are happy with each other, that's why we get along so harmoniously. If I marry Qi Jin, we will only have no feelings for each other. It only adds to the embarrassment.”
Chu Yunfei shook his head: "Before I married Rong Cang, I had no feelings for him."
In fact, given her original status, if Rong Cang had not taken the initiative to marry her, she would not even be qualified to talk to Rong Cang.
He had such a temperament that he kept strangers away from him, and even looking at him from a distance made her feel cold. How could she possibly have the chance to fall in love with him?
Even after getting married, she has always been timid towards Rong Cang, not daring to take the initiative to approach him. She is as gentle, submissive and cautious as those women nowadays.
If it hadn't been for that accident, if she hadn't been reborn...
Chu Yunfei narrowed her eyes, thinking about it now, she didn't know if the nightmare in her previous life was a blessing in disguise.
"The whole civil and military dynasty probably didn't expect that the queen would adopt the war king." Xie Danshu raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "It really caught King Chen off guard."
Chu Yunfei came back to her senses and thought of the reason why Rong Cang was left alone in Shuhuang Palace by the Queen. She paused slightly and couldn't help but look in the direction of the main hall.
"What's wrong?" Xie Danshu was puzzled, "Are you worried about the King of War?"
Chu Yunfei's expression was a little subtle: "...it's nothing."
She was just thinking about how Rong Cang would react if the queen insisted on seeing the mark on Rong Cang.
