The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Suzuki raised his hand to take Yu Gu, but was avoided by the man in black who was holding Yu Gu.

"Ebony has ordered that the child must be taken care of by me."

The man in black said, looking directly at Suzuki.

Suzuki clenched his outstretched hand into a fist and slowly retracted it.

"Good dog."

Ebony and Suzuki have always been at odds with each other.

Suzuki was ordered to lie in ambush and besiege the palace.

Ebony, on the other hand, was in the palace to provide support and had other tasks.

The man in black remained silent, looking at the Emperor of Chu who was standing in front of him, holding Yu Gu in his arms.

Yu Gu opened her eyes and stayed obediently in the arms of the man in black.

Suzuki tried to hold back, but couldn't help it, and took advantage of the black-clad man's inattention to snatch Yu Gu away.

During the scramble, the man in black seemed to be afraid of hurting the child, so Suzuki snatched the child away roughly.

Yu Gu seemed to be frightened by this sudden change. She began to cry and struggle, leaving several bloody marks on Suzuki's neck.

Suzuki put his hand on his neck and threatened viciously: "If you move again, I will kill you."

The child didn't understand anything and just kept shaking his head, saying, "No, no."

Suzuki's neck was hurt by being tickled, so he held Yu Gu with one hand and grabbed his hands with the other.

The child who seemed very quiet and well-behaved just now became so unpleasant as soon as he was held in his arms.

When the King of Chu heard Yu Gu's rare crying, he felt nervous and worried.

"Don't hurt him."

Seeing that Yu Gu’s voice was hoarse from crying, she was sobbing as if she couldn’t breathe.

The King of Chu quickly said, "Just tell me what you want. I can satisfy you."

Suzuki heaved a sigh of relief when he heard what he wanted to hear.

His face was scratched again, and there was probably bleeding at the corner of his eye.

My ears couldn't stand the noise.

He wanted to return the child to the man in black, but Yu Gu refused to let go and continued to stretch her claws on his face and neck.

The man in black was watching the excitement nearby. When he saw that Suzuki's hair was messy, a smile flashed in his eyes.

"What are you looking at? You have no sense. Take him away quickly."

Hearing the angry voice, the man in black slowly reached out and took Yu Gu from his arms.

Strangely, as soon as Yu Gu was in the arms of the man in black, she stopped struggling. Instead, she hugged his neck and sobbed and cried in his arms.

Suzuki didn't notice at this time and just said, "Don't let me hear the crying anymore, it's so noisy."

He felt the pain on his face and neck, and thought viciously in his heart, wait and see how he will deal with this kid.

"Sure enough, the little grandson is different in the eyes of His Majesty."

Suzuki straightened his messy clothes and hair.

"You have a legitimate reason. Why are you standing in this hall today?"

The King of Chu asked in confusion.

Suzuki looked over and uttered two words.

"revenge!"

revenge?

The Emperor of Chu muttered to himself several times, still somewhat confused.

"Want to know? I can tell you, but I want something."

"what?"

"The jade seal of the country."

As soon as the words "Heirloom Seal of the Empire" were uttered, everyone's faces changed.

The King of Chu pondered for a long time and ordered someone to take out the jade seal.

After Suzuki got the seal, he looked at it carefully to confirm that it was authentic, then smashed it to the ground in front of everyone.

"boom!"

There was a crisp sound, catching everyone off guard.

Many officials saw this scene and became jealous, wishing to fight this man to the death.

Everyone knows what the imperial seal represents.

That is the most important thing in every dynasty.

A dynasty has only one imperial seal, which is passed down from the founding emperor.

The shattering of jade is an ominous sign, and the imperial seal of the Great Chu Dynasty was thus shattered.

Suzuki looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, and then told the Emperor of Chu about an old story.

This incident dates back to the time of the previous emperor.

When the late emperor first ascended the throne, he inherited Taizu's ambitions in his later years, supported new ministers, and suppressed the old ministers who almost controlled the entire court.

In particular, the old faction headed by Taishu's clan was very dissatisfied with the series of reformist attitudes of the previous emperor.

Finally, all the ministers jointly impeached Taishu's clan for treason, embezzlement of disaster relief funds and other crimes, and punished them by throwing them into prison and exiling them to a cold and bitter place.

The matter had originally passed. The various nobles were closely connected, and everyone quietly lent a hand, so the exiled Taishu clan would not have had a bad life.

But on the way to exile, they were ambushed and all the members of Taishu's family were killed.

When the news reached the harem, Concubine Taishu, who was about to give birth, set fire to her own bedroom and sacrificed herself to her clan members.

These few simple words contain countless injustices and blood of the Taishu clan.

"Back then, Taishu's clan lost over 130 lives, all unjustly. Today, I, under the orders of my lord, will avenge this blood debt one by one."

"My master also said that the various injustices that were inflicted on Taishu's family caused them to die unjustly. She personally bore all those inexcusable accusations, which fully justified the late emperor's 'wisdom.'"

The last two words "wise and intelligent" are extremely ironic.

This was a disguised admission on his part that many things that happened over the years were done by the descendants of Taishu.

The noise outside was so loud that it reached the hall and Queen Zhu could hear it clearly.

She remained silent, her eyes looking far away, so far away that she seemed to be recalling something.

Song Shengfu listened as she spoke. Although it was inappropriate at this time and place, she admired this person very much in her heart.

With his own strength, he turned the Chu into a mess.

The descendants of the Taishu clan obviously hold a grudge against the Chu royal family and all the officials who caused the Taishu clan to be exiled.

Also, there are those nobles who watched coldly from the sidelines back then.

They were all retaliated against one by one.

No wonder, Song Shengfu's troubled thoughts suddenly became clear.

What has always puzzled her is that the decline of the Duan family in the previous life seemed to be deliberately guided by someone. As long as the original person died, the signs of decline seemed to be accelerated.

But she still didn't quite understand what this had to do with her original self.

She kept this question in her heart.
