The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

"Alas, He Hui, you dare to ask for help with such a big matter. I guess you are afraid of being scolded by me, so you dare not come to see me."

The Emperor of Chu was not very angry. He even smiled lovingly as he looked at Yu Gu who was being surrounded by Le Fu.

"She's also a kind-hearted woman, thinking about her daughter. However, asking for a title is a bit beyond the rules, and I'm afraid she's worried about putting you in a difficult position, so..."

The Emperor of Chu snorted coldly. It was just a roundabout way of conveying the words to his ears.

But then again, if she had asked him directly, he might have rejected her on the spot.

"She has a motherly heart, but don't I have a fatherly heart?"

He is 72 years old and still worries about his daughter.

"She's relaxed, and every time she opens and closes her mouth, it's like she's asking for a princess title. She eats and takes things, and who else is like her? She's the one who holds her head high when she returns to her parents' home."

It has to be said that they are royal family members after all, and when the Emperor of Chu and King Rui said this, their words were exactly the same.

This was of course a joke made by the Emperor of Chu. Even when he was sitting on the throne, he had heard that people among the people were secretly competing to see whose daughter-in-law was the most capable and had the straightest back.

If you want to know which family has the most powerful married daughters, it must be the royal family.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chu remembered the matter of Princess Le Yi that he had sent people to inquire about before, and his eyes darkened.

The person is not dead yet, but you dare to ask someone to come to your house to perform a caesarean section to take the baby. Do you really have no regard for the royal family?

The Xu family is so bold as to defy the imperial authority.

"Your Majesty, even if the princess is married, she is still your daughter. It's perfectly normal for her to come home and seek support from her parents when she's bullied outside. Furthermore, the princess's biological mother passed away long ago, and you are the only one closest to her in this palace."

The Queen spoke from the heart, her true feelings were revealed in her words, and she really looked distressed.

The King of Chu thought it made perfect sense, but as he thought about it, he started to get angry again.

How can a princess be bullied?

Who are you looking down on!

"You said she's not a child anymore, how can she bear any injustice? Even if she gets angry, she can fight back..."

Having said this, the Emperor of Chu paused.

When the queen saw how aggrieved he was, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

"Fight back, but where? The palace gates are about to be flooded with the spit of the officials, and the princess doesn't want to embarrass you."

"No matter how difficult it is, the difficult things have been done."

The King of Chu was very upset. Those bastards never thought about how to do practical work all day long. Instead, they focused on trivial matters.

Someone's daughter-in-law insulted her parents-in-law, and someone's husband went to a brothel again.

Today we impeach Lord Zhang for being untidy in his attire, and tomorrow we impeach Lord Li for being absent from court.

The King of Chu was fed up with listening to these bad things every day.

They are not as good as a group of women, those female students, who either delivered military supplies to the battlefield or researched new crops, which increased the per-acre grain yield in Da Chu.

Anyway, he only heard good news from Xunlu Girls' School. Now his hobby is to pick out some good seedlings from these female students and send them to the court for research.

Thinking of this, the Emperor of Chu felt happy again.

The King of Chu was not a pedantic person, as can be seen from his leniency towards his old ministers. He did not care about women's virtues, so could he really let a woman ride on his neck?

As for those people underground, if a woman can ride on their necks, it only means that this person is useless to women.

He only wanted to see who was useful to him and could bring benefits to Da Chu. In front of him, there were only useful people, not men or women.

"Forget it. Princess Le Yi's birth this time set an example for caesarean sections in the world. Her merits will be recorded in history, and she will enjoy offerings from the people of her fiefdom."

He was also granted two additional fiefs, Baiyi and Heze, and was granted an imperial edict.

After the eunuch who had received the imperial edict had left, the empress spoke up and asked, "Your Majesty had already made this plan. It's a pity that I had to persuade him for so long."

If I hadn't had this intention in mind, I wouldn't have made the decision so quickly.

The Emperor of Chu sat there and said with a smile: "I am not only the emperor, I am also a father and grandfather."

"Being in the imperial family presents many constraints, but this supreme position also comes with too many shackles. These shackles do not bind me, but protect my subjects. However, in some minor matters, the imperial family is always supreme and inviolable."

For example, in the case of Le Yi, if the royal family did not take any action, everyone would follow suit over time, and the royal authority would gradually be weakened.

Emperor Chu picked up Yu Gu who was lying on Le Fu and held his hand as if he was teaching him.

"It's like training a dog. When they see their owner, their authority makes them afraid to resist. Once they show signs of aggression, they'll be punished immediately. Add food as an inducement, and over time they'll become a docile, loyal dog."

Love sat at an arm's length away from Emperor Chu, wagging his tail happily and sticking out his tongue with his mouth open.

Yu Gu looked at the dog, then at her grandfather, and nodded as if she understood.

"Understand."

Emperor Chu laughed and gently pinched his little nose.

"People are as big as little devils."

The queen smiled, her expression unchanged.

"That's how it should be. What's His Majesty Xu's plan?"

When the King of Chu heard this, there was a hint of disgust in his eyes.

"Since you are not willing to serve the master, follow the rules."

The princess is the master and the Xu family is the servant.

If a servant was extremely disrespectful, he would usually be sold off and the matter would be settled, and some would even be beaten to death to serve as a warning to others.

"I don't drink. I don't drink."

After Princess Le Yi finished her confinement, she moved into the prepared princess mansion with her child. The Xu family breathed a sigh of relief after sending away a giant Buddha.

I thought it was over, but Mrs. Xu was still in the house whispering and cursing Le Yi for being a piece of shit and for taking away the eldest grandson of their Xu family.

"Tomorrow when you go to court, you must severely denounce her. How can a woman take a child away? Is this really a rebellion against the Heavenly Gang?"

"So what if she is a princess now? She is still the woman my son doesn't want. Does she think she can have a good life if she leaves our Xu family? She is just a rotten..." piece of trash.

Mr. Xu covered her mouth with his hand. This woman really said all kinds of things. Not only did she come from a bad background, but she was also stupid and ignorant.
