My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

Chapter 286: Changes at the Palace Banquet

The queen knew that he was in a bad mood and that she couldn't persuade him at the moment, so she nodded and ordered the palace servants, "It's a bit cold tonight, bring a cloak for the emperor."

Cui Hongjing raised his eyes calmly and raised his glass, "I have heard that King Kang is famous for his virtue since I was in Zhenguo, and I admire him very much. Let me offer a toast to His Majesty..."

It was dark at night and Yan Ruobing walked aimlessly.

The garden was filled with the fragrance of flowers and a cool breeze on his face. He took a few deep breaths and felt refreshed.

Eunuch Fu followed closely by his side, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Princess Wan is just angry that her marriage became a victim of the exchange of interests between the two countries. She is back now. In time, she will understand the difficulties your Majesty had back then and will figure it out."

Yan Ruobing smiled bitterly, "I'm not that optimistic. If I had known she would become like this, I might as well... forget it. What's the point of talking about this now?"

The most ruthless imperial family.

Since you have chosen to be at the center of power in the royal family, you are destined to be unable to enjoy, or even understand, the happiness of ordinary people.

Yan Ruobing calmed down for a while, and when she returned to the Xuanwu Hall, she did not expect that the situation in the hall was already tense.

"The King of Chu really knows how to pick the time. He knows that I am seriously injured and have not recovered yet, yet he chooses to compete with me at this time. Aren't you afraid that others will say that you won unfairly?" Cui Hongjing sat there lazily.

The King of Chu laughed, "I have always had a bad reputation, so I don't care what others say. If my father hadn't summoned me back to the capital, I'm afraid that the King of Jing would not only be seriously injured but also not recovered..."

"Your Highness means that when the two armies are fighting, you can easily take my head among thousands of soldiers?" Cui Hongjing laughed a little arrogantly.

"It's just a sparring match, and we should stop at the right time. But Prince Jing keeps talking about other things. Is he afraid?"

On the side, Concubine Ru was so anxious that she kept making faces at the King of Chu, but the King of Chu didn't even look at her.

Concubine Cheng pursed her lips and smiled secretly: "The King of Chu really overestimates his own abilities, thinking that if the King of Jing is injured, he can show his face in front of the emperor. Haha, if the King of Jing is really killed with a sword, it would be clean."

"It seems that the banquet I am attending today is the Hongmen Banquet?"

As soon as Cui Hongjing finished speaking, the King of Chu rushed over and punched him in the chest, right at the wound from the operation.

He said, "I'm going to hit you. This is in Changguo, in Yecheng, what can you do to me?"

Cui Hongjing was stunned and wiped the blood on his chest with his hand: "......". You are a shameless scumbag. You never told me this before.

He fought back without hesitation, kicked the King of Chu to the bottom of the stairs, and pretended to rush up to continue beating him.

"Prince Jing, please stop!" Yan Ruobing turned to look at Prince Chu and cursed, "What a disgrace!"

This son is really a cause of worry.

He quickly guessed the King of Chu's thoughts. The King of Chu was a competitive man. He had thought that he could fight Cui Hongjing on the battlefield and gain military merit, so he was so excited that he was ready to fight for a long time. Unexpectedly, there was no follow-up before the battle even started. Some court officials also laughed at him privately because of this.

He was unwilling to accept this, knowing that Prince Jing was injured and was no match for him, so he wanted to show off his power here and get back his face.

My son's vision is still not broad enough, and the Chen Mansion is still not deep enough!

Thinking of this, Yan Ruobing slowly shifted her gaze towards King Kang.

But King Kang covered his head with his hands, his face showing pain.

"Kang Er, what's wrong with you?"

King Kang tried to force out a smile, "I have a headache. Maybe I caught a cold after taking a shower this morning. I'll be fine after a short rest. Don't worry, father."

Yan Ruobing: "Come here, send Prince Kang back to his mansion to rest."

King Kang stood up, but he could not stand steadily. He felt a sharp pain in his head and fell to the ground.

"Imperial Physician, please call the Imperial Physician..."

The scene was in chaos.

Several imperial doctors came quickly and gathered around Prince Kang to feel his pulse. "Your Majesty, the prince is probably having another migraine attack."

"Again?" Yan Ruobing frowned. "King Kang also had pain before? How did he get this disease?"

His eyes shifted to the young eunuch who was serving Prince Kang.

The young eunuch knelt down quickly and replied carefully, "Your Majesty, the prince also had headaches from time to time before, and they usually subsided after a day or two. I saw the imperial physician, who also said it was a migraine, but the prince did not allow me to tell the emperor and the queen, saying that he did not want to worry them."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Cheng burst into tears, "Your Majesty, I beg you to save our Kang'er. If anything happens to him, I will not live anymore..."

The Queen hurried over to pull Concubine Cheng away, "It's no use for you to be anxious, sister. Don't disturb the imperial physician's treatment."

Concubine Cheng cried and pushed the Queen's hand away, "He's not your son, so of course you don't have to worry."

After saying this in a hurry, she felt weak in her heart. She quickly knelt down and hugged the queen's legs, "Please forgive me, Queen. I was too anxious and lost my sense of proportion."

"Get up." The queen looked coldly at the woman at her feet. "Kang'er also grew up under my watch. I feel the same way as you do."

The queen looked at Prince Kang lying on the ground and felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.

Although she had always been kind to all the emperor's children, she had never felt this way before.

This was the first time she saw King Kang almost fainting from the pain, and her heart ached.

"Hurry up and take the medicine!" Yan Ruo said coldly.

"Your Majesty," the imperial physician said, "When the prince had a headache before, I used medicine and acupuncture, but it didn't work."

"You mean, you let the prince endure the severe pain every time?" Concubine Cheng said angrily, "How dare you guys? You have examined him several times but didn't report it. You are so incompetent that you can't even prescribe a prescription to relieve the pain. What's the use of you?"

The imperial physician was so frightened that his whole body was shaking. "The symptom is a headache, but there is no other physical impairment. Moreover, the prince repeatedly warned me not to publicize it. Therefore, I was confused for a moment. Please forgive me, Your Majesty, and please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

King Kang, who fell to the ground, knew that it was a relapse of his old illness, but he did not expect the pain to be so severe this time that it felt as if his entire head was about to explode. He could not bear it any longer and could not help but groan in pain.

"Medicine! Give me the medicine quickly!" Yan Ruobing kicked the imperial physician in front of her.

The doctor got up and responded with a trembling voice, while rummaging through the medicine box, muttering: "This painkiller is not very effective."

"Why not try the villain's medicine!"

Suddenly, a voice neither loud nor soft was heard.
