1781. Chapter 1781 Doting on concubines and destroying wives
And now King Chu's most beloved daughter is also trading her life's happiness for the overthrow of King Chu's palace. This incident will probably have a greater impact on King Chu than the death of Chu Tianyou.
That's all she said. How could a person like the King of Chu, who was struggling in the court, not understand the truth behind this.
Princess Chu didn't speak any more, but just brought back the bowl of pork rib soup that was placed in front of King Chu. King Chu raised his eyes and glanced at her, but this time there was no longer the domineering look in his eyes when he told her to "shut up".
The helplessness of ordinary men.
The look in her eyes was clearly asking: "Jingshu, how could this happen? How could I get to this point?"
Princess Chu didn't seem to understand the inquiry in his eyes. She still put the soup into the food box very gracefully, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty's hair has turned a lot white. I have been working hard on state affairs recently. This bowl of pork ribs
Don’t drink the soup. I’ll ask Yilan to make a bowl of Shouwu soup for the palace later.”
King Chu was slightly stunned when he heard Princess Chu's words, but Princess Chu had already walked out slowly carrying the food box.
When Princess Chu walked out, King Chu took out the bronze mirror from the cabinet on one side.
Although the bronze mirror didn't illuminate very clearly, you could clearly see his hair, which was nearly half white.
The King of Chu let out a long sigh and said softly: "Perhaps today's result is the retribution for my doting on my concubine and killing my wife back then! I deserve it!"
His heart was full of sadness, but the sadness was also somewhat helpless.
If he had lived up to his ambition and married Lu Zhu into the Prince of Chu's palace, how would this series of things have happened?
The King of Chu sat down in the chair with a bloodless face. He had galloped on the battlefield in his life, killed enemies bravely, and deployed sophisticated formations. He was called a generation of heroes and a generation of war gods, but he managed his family affairs in a mess.
His eyes fell on a miscellaneous book on the bookshelf. The miscellaneous book was a book in which he kept notes on daily life. The miscellaneous notes had been recorded for many years. He gently opened the first page, and that page recorded:
The status of the Chu Palace in the court and its future layout.
He was slightly stunned, but the annoyance in his heart had also dissipated a lot. Today's Chu Prince's Mansion is no longer his only Chu Prince's Mansion.
He can't really put Prince Chu's Mansion into dire straits just for the sake of Chu Wang Qi!
His eyes deepened. In addition to Chu Tianqi, he also had other children in the Chu Palace. With Chu Yuanzhou, whom he was proud of, how could he allow the Chu Palace to rely on Chu Tianqi's designs?
And in danger?
Moreover, if something happens to the Prince of Chu's Mansion, many courtiers who are close to the Prince of Chu's Mansion will also be in danger, which he cannot tolerate.
King Chu's eyes became colder, and he said sternly: "Come here, the third lady is thinking of the concubine. She is eager to ask her to pack her bags immediately and go to Feihua Courtyard tomorrow to be married. Before that, she is not allowed to return to the palace!"
Chu Zhifang, the steward of the palace, was stunned for a moment after hearing his instructions, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the emperor has just given the holy decree to confer marriage..."
"That's right." King Chu said slowly: "After the third lady gets married, it will be difficult to return to the palace to fulfill her filial piety, so let her fulfill her filial piety well before she gets married!"
Chu Zhifang knew that the King of Chu had always been a stickler for his words, so he immediately responded and quickly retreated.
After Yun Qian heard King Chu's arrangements from Princess Chu, her eyes moved slightly and she said softly: "My father is quite sensible."
