Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Concubine's Birthday Banquet
The palace banquet is placed in the open space in the back garden, and a word can be immediately transmitted from one side to the other, not to mention that one of the two people who spoke was King Gong, who was high up, and the other was just a doctor from the hospital.
Two people who can't be beaten by eight poles suddenly intersect, which will inevitably attract people's attention.
When King Gong thought of something, his murderous eyes turned into a warm smile, and his tone was also a lot more attentive, "I heard that the extremely popular eye drops sold in the market are from the hands of Imperial Physician Qin.
Imperial Physician Qin's hands can be said to benefit the people. ”
The corners of Qin Chaolu's mouth twitched, she didn't know what he had in mind when he suddenly said this, she didn't dare to say more, she simply replied with three words, "Praise it." ”
The ministers and their families suddenly stopped talking, and all of them pricked up their ears to listen, as if the conversation between the two men was more interesting than the topic of their own mouths.
Qin Chaolu didn't want to stand here and show people as a monkey, so he turned around to leave.
King Gong suddenly raised his voice, "A young and promising son like Imperial Doctor Qin, I think there are many women who pursue him, but do you have a sweetheart?" ”
"Shut you down......" Qin Chaolu gritted his teeth and swallowed the dirty words in the back, turned around, looked at him with a warm smile, and asked rhetorically, "Your Highness has a sweetheart?" ”
The corners of King Gong's mouth hooked, and his eyes flashed with excitement, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have become a lot bolder, dare to ask this king?" Why, are you going to introduce the princess to this king? ”
Qin Chaolu smiled, "What did Your Highness say?" Weichen himself doesn't have a sweetheart yet, so how can he introduce it to His Royal Highness.
Besides, His Royal Highness has a noble status, and Weichen can't afford to introduce it. ”
"How about this king introduce you to one?" King Gong took a step forward, and his momentum inadvertently turned aggressive.
Qin Chaolu retreated at the right time.
King Gong continued, "Princess Huayang is grateful for Imperial Physician Qin's life-saving grace, and she still misses you.
It just so happened that after the colt betrayed the princess, he was abandoned by the princess. The princess is now back to one person, although it is not perfect, but her status is noble, and she deserves you. ”
Everyone gasped, and at the feast, everyone watched, King Gong belittled his own sister like this to humiliate a doctor, whether there was a hole in his brain or a hole in his brain.
Qin Chaolu thought that sure enough, King Gong began to go crazy after he couldn't find her handle.
At this time, the emperor and queen and the concubine have already come, and not far from the flower path, the palace lamp of a slip of smoke merges into one strand in three strands, squeezing here.
None of the courtiers dared to remind the two, and only cared about kneeling first.
The corners of King Gong's mouth curved, and he took advantage of the situation to press forward step by step, "Imperial Doctor Qin, why don't you speak, could it be that you are the princess who dislikes my Jinguo, and you think she is worthy of you?" ”
The emperor walked towards him, and when he heard this sentence, he paused and stood still.
The pile of people in the back all stood still.
Qin Chaolu already knew that the emperor and queen were present at this time, because the afterglow was full of lights. But she could only pretend not to know, because in this way she could not pierce the layer of paper, and there was room for conversion.
But King Gong decided to pierce this layer of paper to the end, so he turned around and bowed down before she could speak.
Qin Chaolu couldn't pretend not to know, and hurriedly knelt down.
The emperor didn't hear what he wanted to hear, so he couldn't help but ask, "Imperial Doctor Qin, are you still disgusted with the princess of Shangme?" ”
"Wechen doesn't dare."
"What's going on, how did you get involved with the princess?" Concubine Chen asked softly.
Qin Chaolu replied truthfully, "It was King Gong who wanted to match Weichen and Princess Huayang." ”
"Oh-" The concubine looked at the emperor, although she didn't know why the two of them talked about it, but the conversation had already been provoked, and the civil and military officials all listened, this matter must have a result, otherwise the royal face should be done.
Qin Chaolu also thought of this, so she was reluctant to pierce it, once she was pierced, she would either obediently accept the marriage offer or forcibly refuse to marry, these two results, no matter which one was not good for her.
"Your Majesty, Mother. Weichen didn't dare to think about the princess.
Princess Huayang is His Majesty's only daughter, and she is the treasure in the palm of the Son of Heaven.
Moreover, Weichen's status is low, and she can't afford it. ”
"That's right." The concubine intercepted the topic and did not want to go on.
But King Gong was aggressive, "You dislike the king's sister and remarry, right?" ”
The concubine's face changed, and she gave King Gong frequent looks, but King Gong ignored it, he lost his love today, and how willing he was not to make up for it.
The emperor's face is also difficult to look at, but at this time, he can't blame King Gong, otherwise he will be weak-hearted.
Even if their royal daughter is married, she is noble, and there is nothing to be good about.
Therefore, the emperor could only force Qin Chaolu.
"Imperial Physician Qin is young and promising and benefits the people, Princess Huayang is virtuous and virtuous, and she is a golden branch and jade leaf, I feel ......"
"Your Majesty, no, Your Majesty." One person hurriedly walked out of the family, it was Lu Tingguan.
Qin Chaolu's pupils froze, and he had a premonition that something was wrong.
She and Ye Liuhuai made thousands of calculations, and never calculated that Lu Tingguan would come. Obviously, the Lu family has nothing to do with the Zhao family, but seeing that the direction in which she came out was from the Zhao family, it would be extremely scary to think about it.
Qin Chaolu looked at King Gong.
King Gong hooked his lips and smiled evilly, aiming to win.
Qin Chaolu clenched his hands.
Lu Tingguan knelt down, his eyes were red, and he pleaded, "Your Majesty, the courtiers have been in love with Imperial Physician Qin for a long time, although Imperial Physician Qin has rejected the courtiers, but the courtiers are infatuated and do not change, and they still hope that Your Majesty will fulfill them." ”
Everyone was blown away.
Qin Chaolu's face was already pale.
King Gong played a good trick to make her sandwich between two women at the same time, and she had to be forced to make a choice.
At this time, he must be expecting her to take the initiative to tell her about her daughter's body, she doesn't, never.
Even if her identity is revealed, it must be her own wish, and she is not forced to do so.
She clenched her hands tightly, gritted her teeth and made the last choice, and stopped Lu Tingguan.
"Miss Lu."
Lu Tingguan rolled his eyes.
Qin Chaolu didn't know how to face her, so he could only hang his head and said with difficulty, "I can't marry you below." ”
Everyone was shocked again, this time even the emperor and queen and the concubine were shocked.
Lu Tingguan's heart ached, and tears couldn't stop falling.
Qin Chaolu's heart was extremely complicated, and he had to say that King Gong's plan was very poisonous.
The evening breeze blew, the air suddenly became quiet, and the sounds of ritual music and joy all around seemed to be dissipated.
Qin Chaolu could only hear the sound of his own heartbeat, plopping, plopping.
She knew that Lu Tingguan said that these were all to save her. Because once His Majesty opens his mouth to marry her and the princess, then she will not be able to escape this marriage.
That's why Lu Tingguan rushed out and revealed his love in front of everyone.
Her exposure is going to be trampled on by her, how can she not know that feeling as a woman, but her identity can't be exposed so simply, she must pull King Gong to hell while revealing her identity, otherwise, she is unwilling!
