The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

The King of Chu is definitely not capable of that now. No, to be precise, he is still capable of that, but the new imperial physician said that that can easily damage the vitality, so if he wants to live a long life, it is better for him to give up.

When the King of Chu heard this, he immediately gave up his desires and became more pure and indifferent.

Now when I go to bed, I just cover myself with the quilt and chat.

Some ignorant concubines wanted to be affectionate with His Majesty, but were scolded by the Emperor of Chu and lost his favor from then on.

Later everyone knew privately that His Majesty should focus on taking care of his health, especially since the Queen had issued an order that the concubines were not allowed to break the rules unless His Majesty intended to do so.

His Majesty has had this imperial physician who is only concerned about his health over the years, and he asks him to check his health almost every three days.

This imperial physician is truly capable.

Although the King of Chu is certainly not as healthy as he was when he was young, he is still very strong. He rarely catches a cold and is in great health.

The Queen learned privately that at this rate, the Emperor of Chu could live for at least another twenty years, and could even live to ninety.

The longest-lived emperor of the Chu State lived to be eighty-seven years old. According to this standard, the Emperor of Chu could still live about twenty-five years.

Twenty-five years have passed, and my grandson should have grown up by now.

The queen happily drank another glass, hoping that her majesty would live a long life.

The Emperor of Chu had just finished persuading the imperial concubine when he saw the queen drinking again.

"Queen, please drink less."

The queen put down her wine glass and had someone remove it. "Bring some tea."

"Please remove my wine and serve the soup."

Nourishing soup, specially made for the Emperor of Chu.

At this time, some people could no longer hold back.

"Your Majesty, I was frightened to death just now. Fortunately, Your Majesty has the protection of a real dragon, and you are out of danger."

The virtuous concubine was sitting below the empress, and was looking at the Emperor of Chu with concern.

In the face of his woman's concern, the Emperor of Chu was still very considerate. He said it was nothing and praised the virtuous concubine and the fourth prince.

The other princes and their mothers were not to be outdone and came forward to compliment them. The Emperor of Chu praised them one by one, trying to treat them all equally.

"Your Majesty, the one who was protecting you just now was the eldest grandson of the Duan family, right? I didn't expect he's grown up so fast. But he's still young after all, and hasn't considered things carefully enough. Now he's gone. Doesn't that mean we can't find any evidence?"

After she said it, as if she just realized what she had said, Concubine De covered her mouth and looked in the direction of Duan Bo's Mansion with some apology.

Ever since Concubine De revealed her true nature, the Fifth Prince has become more and more arrogant as he grows older.

She was even more incompatible with Concubine Ning. She would feel uncomfortable if Concubine Ning was well.

Duan Bofu has a close relationship with Concubine Ning. Over the years, they have sent many good things to the palace, some of which were presented to His Majesty by her. His Majesty now values ​​Duan Bofu more and more.

Now the eldest grandson of the Duan family, who was said to be lazy and good at eating, was about to become a "little general". How could she bear to see it?

Concubine Shu reacted and echoed, "Your Majesty, what should we do? These thieves dared to assassinate you openly. Who dares to challenge your majesty's majesty? We must apprehend those behind this and serve as a warning to others."

How to catch him? Of course, we need to find clues.

The assassin is the clue, but he is dead. How did he die? The eldest grandson of the Duan family shot him to death.

Now the attention turned back and everyone's eyes fell on Kang Ge'er.

Now everyone can see that today is an important day for rewarding military generals, and Duan Jiazi has been awarded the title of His Majesty's oral order because of his meritorious service in protecting the emperor. Whether this is true or not, His Majesty must speak for herself.

The three princes were enemies before, but if there was one person they all disliked, it was the sixth prince Chu Qinling, who was deeply loved by his father.

There is no reason to dislike this youngest brother, so I have to step on him whenever I get the chance.

Everyone pricked up their ears and listened. Although they didn't look up, they were paying attention all the time.

Gradually, the voices became quieter, and they all paid attention to the movements above.

Duan Bofu also heard the message that was passed on, which was that Kang Ge'er killed the witness. What should they do now?

The situation was critical just now and no one thought about this.

Now that the crisis has passed, everyone has gradually reacted.

Now they all felt nervous. It would be fine if no one asked, but now that Kang Ge'er was brought up, what should they do?

But protecting the emperor is a real matter, and even if there are mistakes, it is understandable. The only thing to worry about is that it will displease His Majesty and leave an impression that I am not thoughtful enough.

The protagonist of the story, Kang Ge'er, was enjoying the food and wine at the palace banquet. He hadn't eaten such delicious food for a long time.

Those of them who were of higher rank and status were in the same banquet hall with His Majesty, while the others of lower status were outside, but they were all in the room.

This is the place where the imperial palace holds banquets. The buildings are huge and extremely luxurious.

So even if the food was cold, there was a ground heating in the banquet hall and the dishes were heated with charcoal underneath, so they were still hot when Kang Ge ate them.

Of course he heard the sarcastic voices from next door, but he was not afraid at all.

It wasn't the critical moment they said where it was difficult to leave anyone alive, but His Majesty had ordered that they be beheaded on the spot.

Even if they were captured alive, what would happen? These Death Guards had poison hidden in their mouths. If their plan failed, they would commit suicide by taking poison before anyone could capture them.

"A woman's perspective."

The Emperor of Chu threw the chopsticks in his hand in boredom, and they hit the dishes with a crisp collision sound.

When the Empress heard what the Emperor of Chu said, she couldn't help but think that His Majesty had not allowed them to continue, but was he still considering the princes. Otherwise, if it was a loss of face for the Empress, it would be a loss of face for the princes.

Knowing that His Majesty was displeased, Concubine De stopped talking and quickly said, "It was my fault for speaking carelessly. Please don't blame me, Your Majesty."

She just wanted to start a conversation to annoy them, but she didn't really want to anger His Majesty, so she admitted her mistake very quickly and cleverly.

The concubine who followed suit was dumbfounded. She didn't know whether to say it or not. After holding it in for a long time, she could only say dryly, "Your Highness, too."

Shufei is the mother of the second prince. She is not very smart and likes to follow others to make trouble. She has no opinion of her own and is a typical fanner.

The Emperor of Chu glanced at them, a glance full of the majesty of the emperor.

But it was just a glance, and sweat appeared on the foreheads of Concubine De and Concubine Shu.

"It was my idea. Duan Chengkang brought back the news of the assassination this morning, and I personally arranged everything that happened afterwards."
