"Gone."

Chen Chao boarded the carriage with a bit of banter in his voice.

The convoy immediately set off and returned to the capital.

On the way, Hou Ji, who was driving outside, voiced his concerns.

Chen Chao was nothing, he only felt that this time Emperor Chu had made a good deal.

On the one hand, he promised Beidi to send troops together, and on the other hand, he sent someone to contact him, saying that as long as he taught them how to make flintlock pistols, he could not send troops.

He didn't lose anything of what he was asked to do.

However, no matter what, the Chen dynasty would not hand over the flintlock pistol.

After so many years of hard work, so much energy, money, and manpower, it is now a country.

In the future, when you cross the river to fight the Chu State, you have to rely on them.

Surrender yourself so early?

Only fools pay it.

……

……

At the same time, the state of Chu Jinling.

Emperor Chu was performing a play, and after the court meeting, he went straight to Empress Xiao of the harem without even changing his clothes.

Empress Xiao poured tea for him, and Emperor Chu opened his mouth, sighing and saying, "Among my daughters, none of them are called me to save your heart. ”

Seeing Emperor Chu like this, Empress Xiao comforted: "If you don't get angry, it's not worth it to be angry, who made Your Majesty angry again?" ”

Emperor Chu flicked his sleeves and pointed outside: "Who else, the little grandfather of the Ningguo family at today's court meeting cried to me, saying that Princess Ning'an has not returned to the house for three months, and he wants to reconcile with Ning'an." ”

Princess Ning'an is the daughter of the Emperor of Chu and is ranked thirteenth.

"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Emperor Chu was too excited, covered his mouth and coughed a few times, and looked at Empress Xiao, "This family affair was promised by me two years ago, the British Duke fought for the country all his life, and made great contributions to the Chu country, I promised Ning An to their family, but Ning An is not sensible at all!" I never knew I was worried. ”

After speaking, Emperor Chu paused and sighed:

"Speaking of which, none of my daughters have made me feel at ease."

"My eldest daughter, I thought she was an obedient person, but I didn't expect her to be disobedient since she was a child, I was dissatisfied with her arrangement, and I disobeyed me everywhere......"

"Throughout the past dynasties and generations, which woman has appeared outside and has a place in the court?"

Emperor Chu took a sip of tea: "No! ”

"But what about her, but what about Chu Yunmei, a man dressed as a woman and went to participate in the imperial examination, and she had to compete with the men in this world? What if I pass the test? Can you be an official? You must know that this world is a man's world after all, and she should accept her fate as a girl's family, be her eldest princess in a proper manner, and teach her husband and children! ”

These words fell on Empress Xiao's ears, and Empress Xiao felt slightly uncomfortable.

"She doesn't take the road I arranged for her, she follows me everywhere, she killed those three horses, how did I give birth to such a ruthless daughter?"

"Now, she married Daji and created so many good things for Daji? The Ten Thousand Nations Congress was also held, isn't that a slap in the face? ”

The more Emperor Chu spoke, the more excited he became, his face was ruddy, and his voice trembled.

Empress Xiao listened, her face was comforted, but her heart gave birth to a different emotion.

In fact, she is also a woman, she admires Chu Yunmei very much!

She really doesn't lose to any man in the world!

She was born to work hard in officialdom for the benefit of the people!

But in the state of Chu, she didn't have a chance, it was Daji who gave her the opportunity to have her current achievements.

Emperor Chu somewhat made the pearl dusty.

"And Lingke, don't let me worry......" Emperor Chu suddenly clicked on Lingke, and the afterglow fell on Empress Xiao's face silently, watching her reaction.

Empress Xiao still blindly comforted, no different.

"I chose a good family for her, and she dared to run away from marriage? What's so bad about marrying Prince Beidi? Prince Beidi is weak, she can still be bullied if she marries, as long as she has some means, Beidi will be hers in the future, what is she dissatisfied with. ”

"It's not that I'm not dissatisfied...... Queen Xiao showed a wry smile on her face, "Lingke is the biological child of the concubine, and she has been pampered by the concubine since she was a child, everything is the concubine's fault, and the concubine didn't teach her well...... Please also rest assured that Lingke will come back after going out to play for a while, not to escape from marriage. ”

"I don't blame the queen, I'm just weird...... I had already found someone to watch her before this, how did she escape from the palace? ”

Empress Xiao stood up and slowly knelt down in front of Emperor Chu: "It was the concubine who let her out of the palace." ”

Now, there is no need for the husband and wife to act anymore.

Emperor Chu was silent for a while, his eyes fixed on the queen in front of him: "Why did the queen do this?" ”

Empress Xiao sighed: "Lingke is the biological daughter of the concubine after all, and the concubine doesn't want her to marry Beidi far away and marry someone she doesn't like." ”

"Hmph." Emperor Chu snorted coldly, slammed the table, the tea cup shook to the ground, slammed, and fell apart: "Since Lingke was born in the royal family, who to marry, who not to marry, like or dislike, when is it the queen's turn to make decisions for her!" ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a deathly silence in Queen Xiao's palace.

This is the first time in so many years that Emperor Chu has lost his temper with Empress Xiao.

The palace maids were all shocked, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to pant loudly.

Empress Xiao put her palms on the ground, slowly leaned down, and said:

"Everything is the fault of the concubine, please punish Your Majesty."

"Well, in that case...... Then ask the queen to hand over the smoke and rain order. ”
