Chu Tianyou felt a little unhappy when he heard what King Chu said, but he didn't say much on his face. Lu Zhu had found a casual position for her in the Ministry of Personnel earlier. It was really just a casual position. There wasn't much to do on weekdays.
Do.
He bowed and said, "This is what my father taught me."
Chu Yuanzhou saw Chu Tianyou's somewhat cold eyes from the side, and he understood clearly in his heart that the father's kindness and son's filial piety in Prince Chu's palace were just for outsiders to see. But he also knew that even if he had always treated Chu
The king didn't have any good impressions, but he also admired King Chu. King Chu's official reputation in the court had always been very good. None of the concubines in the palace of Chu were troublemakers, and they all had some talent and learning.
After Chu Tianyou came Chu Tianqi. She came up with a smile and gave a gift to Princess Chu. When Princess Chu saw Chu Tianqi, she felt like she was seeing Lu Zhu when she was young. Her features and eyes were very similar.
It's just that her eyes look clearer, not as shrewd and calculating as Lu Zhu's.
Even so, Princess Chu didn't like Chu Tianqi very much. She just smiled lightly and asked Yilan to give the purse to Chu Tianqi without asking a word.
Princess Chu didn't ask much, and Chu Tianqi didn't say much. But King Chu asked from the side: "When did Tianqi come back?"
"Father, I came back early today." Chu Tianqi said with a smile in his eyes: "Father, Tianqi will be fifteen years old after the Chinese New Year!"
After hearing her words, King Chu nodded slightly and said, "Very good. You will always live in the palace from now on. After the New Year, I will ask your mother-in-law to find a good in-law's family for you."
Chu Tianqi's face turned red, and she said softly: "Father, please don't marry your daughter! My daughter has not lived in the house for these years, and now that she has just come back, you will drive her out. She still wants to fulfill her filial piety for a few more years."
Got it!"
The King of Chu glanced at her and said: "No matter how silly you say, which girl will not marry? You must fulfill your filial piety. This heart is good, but it cannot delay your life-long events. If you are here again
After living in the palace for a few years, I'm afraid they'll all turn into old maids, and then they'll have to blame me."
As soon as King Chu finished saying these words, the atmosphere in the room improved a lot. His eyes were full of fatherly love, and Chu Yuanzhou's eyes darkened a little.
Chu Tianqi blushed and said, "Father knows how to laugh at me!"
King Chu laughed a few times, and Chu Tianqi said again: "Tonight is the Chinese New Year, why don't you see Lu Fangfei?"
She originally wanted to call her mother concubine, but Princess Chu was here today. She knew it was inappropriate, so she changed the title when the words came to her lips.
Her question made the originally gentle atmosphere become cold again. Lu Zhu's matter was a taboo in the palace during this period. No one dared to say a word. Even Chu Tianyou did not dare to ask King Chu why he wanted to
Confined Luzhu.
In the entire palace, Chu Tianqi was the only one who dared to ask Lu Zhu about things. Since she was not in the palace all year round, there was nothing wrong with asking like this at this time, but everyone was pinching her.
sweat.
Chu Yuanzhou and Yun Qian looked at each other, their eyes deepening.
The smile on King Chu's originally smiling face faded away, but he did not answer. Chu Tianqi looked around at a loss, as if he didn't know what was going on.
When Princess Chu saw this scene, she said calmly: "Your Majesty, the matter has passed. Why don't you invite Concubine Lu to come over?"
