The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Chapter 75 Set within a set

When the Emperor of Chu discovered that the Third Prince's men had been apprehended at the Huangfeng Temple, he knew that something had gone wrong and discovered the stupid things his two sons had done.

From the very beginning, when he learned that the eldest prince had the intention of rebellion, he began to plan, including blocking the palace, and Gao Ying's rebellion was also part of his plan, just to see how far these grown-up sons could go for the throne.

This was also the first lesson he, their father, taught them after they became adults, so that they would know that this position was not for everyone.

In order to avoid accidents and take safety measures, Xiaoliu was sent to Duan's house early in the morning.

However, he underestimated human nature. He never thought that those rebellious sons could not even tolerate a sick younger brother. How could such narrow-minded and unfilial people be worthy of the throne?

The news that the Sixth Prince was not in the palace was leaked, and the Emperor of Chu was forced to start the plan ahead of time.

He spread the news of the jade talisman in advance in order to restrain the eldest prince and the third prince and draw everyone's attention to the jade talisman, so that the eldest prince's faction would have difficulty in diverting their attention to deal with Xiaoliu.

But there is one thing that Emperor Chu did not expect: high-end players cannot play low-end games.

He thought that the trap was flawless and that his idiot brother had fallen for it. But he didn't expect that the eldest brother was even more stupid and was fooled by the idiot brother.

To be honest, people really smile when they are speechless.

When the Emperor of Chu learned that the Right Prime Minister had sent people to Qingyun Temple and the Duan family, he was furious and incredulous. He knew they were stupid, but he didn't expect them to be so stupid as to be brainless.

The Third Prince was so vicious that he even spared his seven-year-old brother. Although there were no fathers and sons in the royal family and no brothers in the royal family, the Emperor of Chu still felt a chill in his heart at this scene.

Have they been hoping for his death so that he can make room for them?

No, he won’t!

They can forget about it. He is the only one who can decide who can sit in this position and who cannot. The eldest and the third are both good.

Among his sons, the eldest is stupid and controlled by his wife's family and has no opinion of his own.

The second son usually looks dull and mediocre, and the Emperor of Chu once thought that he was useless. If he had not revealed his true identity this time, he would have almost been fooled by him.

The third brother is arrogant, but he is indecisive and has no idea of ​​his own limitations.

The fourth and fifth children seem to be doing okay at the moment. Their biological mother is not favored and is suppressed by her older brothers, and she is still young.

Xiaoliu, alas, is smart and clever, but unfortunately he is in poor health.

Thinking of the second brother, the Emperor of Chu felt a little gloomy. Humph, he looks honest, but he is also very thoughtful.

The third brother is as dumb as a pig, how could he possibly think of diverting the trouble away? The second brother has been hiding for so many years, he is not simple either!

The third prince was arrogant and did not know how to hide his feelings, so he spread the jade talisman through him to check and balance the eldest prince.

He had planned everything, but he hadn't expected the second brother to hide so deeply. His instigation had disrupted all his plans.

But it doesn't matter. He doesn't have the patience to go around in circles with the boss anymore.

After all, the Emperor of Chu was the victorious king of the previous generation, and the tricks of the eldest prince and the third prince were like a joke in front of him.

As soon as the Emperor of Chu appeared, he quickly mobilized the military equipment in the capital and the imperial guards who had remained silent. In just two days, he captured the eldest prince and the third prince.

"Oh my goodness, this is a set within a set within a set."

Song Shengfu clicked her tongue. This battle for the royal family could be made into a big drama. The details must be more dangerous than what Zhang Xueyu said, but there are some details that she will definitely not tell them in detail.

"Fortunately, there was no danger. May God bless us and our ancestors protect us."

Lu clasped his hands together and muttered repeatedly. Ever since he fell off his horse last time, Lu became obsessed with worshiping Buddha.

I go to the small Buddhist temple to worship every day. I even asked for a Buddha statue from Qingyun Temple and offer it every day.

Song Shengfu looked at her eldest daughter-in-law, who was so young but was more superstitious than an old woman like her. She didn't know whether it was good or bad. In her previous life, Lu started burning incense and worshiping Buddha all day long after Duan Jingzong passed away.

Seeing that her current posture was even more pious than in her previous life, Song Shengfu shook her head and thought, "Never mind, she must find something to do, so as not to focus on her husband and son all day and lose herself."

It's good now.

Zhang Xueyu and twenty soldiers stayed at the manor. As long as the King of Chu did not send any news, Chu Qinling could stay here.

However, ever since the people at the manor learned that Chu Qinling was a prince, they've become less friendly and more fearful of him. Whenever Chu Qinling asks them questions, they're all terrified, fearing they might say the wrong thing.

After a few days, Chu Qinling's interest began to wear thin. His disguise had been exposed. Seeing them so respectful, Chu Qinling felt a chill for the first time.

Having experienced the warmth before, this change was a little hard for him to accept. However, the young Chu Qinling didn't know why, he just felt a little empty in his heart.

But he also knew his own identity, and for them, it was enough to indulge in warmth occasionally.

Song Shengfu has been staying in bed since she came back. She is not sick, but just twisted her foot. She took advantage of this period of time to take a break and spent the whole day eating and sleeping.

As the saying goes, those who survive a great disaster will be blessed in the future. Song Shengfu didn’t know whether it was a blessing or not, but she became more relaxed and fatter after that.

The food is also a bit greasier than before. I have to have a whole big pork elbow for dinner, and I eat white meat bite by bite.

As a result, he became rounder and looked more like Kang Ge'er. When they stood together, even those who didn't know them would know that they were a grandparents and grandchildren.

Looking at the old man and the child in front of him holding a brown pork elbow, Duan Jingzong squeezed the hand holding the chopsticks, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

"Mom, it's hard to digest these oily foods at night. Drink some melon soup later to soothe your stomach."

After finishing the last bite of the skin, Song Shengfu took Suqiu's handkerchief and wiped her mouth. She knew that she had been a little greedy recently, but she liked the braised pork elbow very much.

"I know it myself, but this pork elbow is really good. Would you like to have some too?"

Duan Jingzong, Lu, and Duan Jingan waved their hands repeatedly.

"Mom, I've almost finished eating. Forget it."

Mrs. Lu also repeatedly said that she was full.

Seeing this, Kang Ge'er quickly said, "Grandma, there's still room in my stomach. Let me eat."

Seeing this, Sister Wei covered her mouth and laughed. Brother Kang felt a little embarrassed. Seeing that only one elbow was left, he asked hesitantly, "Cousin, you?"

Sister Wei gave him a playful sidelong glance, covered her mouth and said in a delicate voice, "You eat it. I don't like this. It's a bit too sweet. The roasted pork elbows from Shu are better."

Kang Ge'er heard this and put some food into his bowl while curiously asking, "What does the pork elbow taste like, cousin?"

"It's spicy, I'm afraid you can't handle it."

"Nonsense, there's nothing I can't eat."

Kang Ge'er made bold statements, but he kept stuffing food into his mouth.

Speaking of this, Song Shengfu recalled the many delicious foods in Shu, which tended to be spicy. Already full, she thought of the dishes she had eaten before, and an unknown fluid began to flow again.

"Tomorrow, ask the kitchen to prepare some more Sichuan delicacies besides the roast pork elbow."

Thinking of hot pot, Song Shengfu added: "Add another pot."

Duan Jingzong and the others looked at each other and shook their heads. Their mother's appetite had been so good recently that she didn't even care about the heat.

The children were happy, and Chu Qinling also ate a lot more. Unlike the exquisite dishes in the palace, the Duan family's dishes were also elegant, but they focused more on the ingredients themselves.

It is probably because Zhuangzi does not care about these things, but instead has a more worldly feel, so Chu Qinling uses them more than in the palace.

Yuzhi, who was standing by, secretly noted down which dishes the Sixth Prince ate more. She found that the Sixth Prince's appetite was getting better and better, and his complexion looked much rosier.

If the queen saw it, she would be very happy.
