The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

When Chu Qinling heard the Holy Mother mention his name, he looked up and smiled at the Empress Dowager.

Kang Ge'er came forward and supported his chin with his hand.

"Empress Dowager Saint, what kind of person was my late grandfather? I rarely hear anyone in my family mention him, so I'm very curious."

Old people of this age like to explain past issues to the younger generations, and the best thing for them to do is to be a listener.

"Oh? Your grandmother never told you about your grandfather?"

The Queen Mother, the Emperor of Chu and the Queen were all looking at Duan Chengkang with some curiosity.

"I mentioned it a little bit. Back then, my grandmother wanted me to learn martial arts. She told me that my grandfather was unbeatable in the capital and asked me to learn from him."

When he said this, his eyes became a little lonely. "When I was born, my grandfather had already passed away. It is a lifelong regret for me that I was not able to see him."

When Lu was pregnant with Kang Ge'er, Duan Chongming died. When he heard the news that Lu was pregnant, he became unconscious and passed away two days later.

"I suppose your grandmother told you that your grandfather once beat the prince, right?"

Kang Ge'er's eyes widened, and he looked at the Holy Empress Dowager in a daze. How did the Empress Dowager know?

Chu Qinling looked at Kang Ge'er's expression and laughed in his heart. Everything about Kang Ge'er was written on his face.

"Your Majesty the Queen Mother is very wise. How did you know that?"

Hey, you're self-destructing without any thunder.

Some people nearby started to complain, saying that this was a contempt for the emperor's grace, a definite contempt for the emperor's grace.

Song Shengfu felt a chill down her spine. She was far away and only knew that Kang Ge'er was accompanying the Empress Dowager, and it seemed that they were having a good chat.

She didn't know that her pants were about to be stripped off by her "own" grandson.

As soon as Kang Ge'er finished speaking, he continued, "Grandma is using this to teach you, young man, you must never imitate your grandfather's disrespectful behavior. You must not offend your superiors and break the rules."

The Holy Queen Mother nodded slightly, she was a person who knew how to educate children.

"Your grandfather was extremely daring in the past. Every prince in the palace fought against him, but none of them could defeat him."

There was admiration in Kang Ge'er's eyes. Chu Qinling on the side quietly tugged at the corner of his clothes, signaling him to be more restrained.

When the Holy Queen Mother saw the two people's little actions, her heart was touched again.

"Mother, that's not right. Duan Chongming was on par with me at that time."

Emperor Chu continued the conversation, and he also remembered the fight with Duan Chongming at the royal martial arts training ground.

He has forgotten why the fight started.

At that time, unlike today, the children of aristocratic families and the children of the royal family did not follow such strict rules as they do today.

The Emperor of Chu was still somewhat smug. He was having a serious exchange, unlike the others who were all beaten in a sneaky way by that guy.

Queen Zhu was somewhat helpless. Back then, there was Prince Ping in the palace and Duan Chongming outside the palace, both of whom were evil spirits.

"Wow, Your Majesty is amazing."

Kang Ge'er's eyes were full of stars. It turned out that His Majesty was so powerful that he could even fight his grandfather to a draw.

The Holy Empress Dowager could vaguely see that Kang Ge'er was a simple-minded child without so many twists and turns.

The Queen Mother was drinking milky drink and asked the maid next to her what this drink was, as it was suitable for an elderly person like her.

Seeing that Kang Ge'er liked to eat egg pastries, the Holy Empress Dowager asked the palace maid to take the one she had in hand to him and continued to talk about the past.

Kang Ge'er ate while listening to the Empress Dowager talking about her grandfather's past.

"At that time, your grandfather's face was stung so badly that he looked unrecognizable. He didn't dare go home and stayed in Eleven's palace for a few days."

"At that time, the noble families in the capital all had a good relationship with your grandfather, but they kept it a secret from your great-grandparents. It was only after they let it slip that we knew about it."

The Holy Queen Mother mostly talked about her youth, and Kang Ge'er listened quietly, occasionally agreeing with her.

Chu Qinling was somewhat restrained at first when facing the Empress Dowager, but later, under the lively atmosphere created by Kang Ge'er, he began to talk more.

An old man and two children were having a great time.

The Emperor of Chu felt relieved when he saw the happy expression of the Holy Mother Queen.

He ignored some of their outrageous words and pretended not to hear them.

Let them be, as long as the old man is happy.

His Majesty didn't say anything, and the people below didn't dare to speak out either.

"So, can you say I'm self-taught? None of the young masters in the capital can beat me. To make things fair, I even opened a fighting hall. We can fight in the ring, which is much better than fighting in private."

After the Holy Queen Mother and Kang Ge'er had an in-depth conversation, they realized that this boy had followed the same path as his grandfather.

The old ones beat the old ones, and the young ones beat the young ones.

This is another real little villain.

But this kid doesn't have the same cleverness as his grandfather, and looks a little silly.

"Go to the palace more often in the future, and come with Xiaoliu to see me and talk to me."

When she left, the Holy Queen Mother still felt a little reluctant.

Kang Ge'er poured himself a cup of cold tea and nodded in agreement. He had talked too much today, and his mouth was a little dry.

Just as he was about to leave the palace, he was stopped again, saying that he was summoned by His Majesty.

Kang Ge'er went with the palace maids. Chu Qinling was a little worried, so he went with them.

The Duan family members who were waiting outside the palace looked at the palace gate anxiously.

"Why haven't you come out after so long?"

Lu tightened the handkerchief in her hand, stood beside the carriage and looked at the dark and bottomless palace gate.

Song Shengfu ate a little too much and walked around to help digest the food.

"Wait a little longer, maybe he's been delayed by something."

At this time, Kang Ge'er was standing in the inner palace of the Emperor of Chu.

"The Queen Mother likes you. You should come to the palace more often to accompany her."

After the Emperor of Chu knew about the Virgin Mary, he saw Xiaoliu and Duan Chengkang and thought of his eleventh brother. The dead cannot be resurrected, so having these two boys by his side is some consolation.

"I also like the Queen Mother very much. Your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely serve the Queen Mother well."

Kang Ge'er smiled foolishly, and Emperor Chu looked at him with disgust.

He did not forget that this kid had assimilated his well-behaved Xiaoliu, and was saying all sorts of things.

"You boy."

The Emperor of Chu smiled and shook his head. "Leave the palace. Your grandmother and the others must be waiting anxiously."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the boy will take his leave."

Chu Qinling watched from the side and spoke out.

"Father, I'll go see Kang Ge off."

The Emperor of Chu nodded and said, "Bring more palace maids with you, and don't let the lights fall. By the way, when you come back later, you can stay here tonight."

After the two men left, the Emperor of Chu bent his body, sat at the table, and rubbed his forehead with his hands.

When he saw the Virgin Mary talking to the two children today, he suddenly realized that Xiaoliu and the boy from the Duan family were very similar to his eleventh brother and Duan Chongming at that time.

He had never thought about it in this way before, but now this scene always gave him a bad feeling.

I don’t know whether this is a blessing or a curse.

The endings of Eleventh Brother and Duan Chongming were not good, and he didn't want Xiaoliu to have the same ending.
