Chapter 580 Highlight Moment
Chen Qingqing didn't expect the King of Chu to say such a thing, and her head suddenly became three times bigger.
What's wrong with the King of Chu?
Just putting two people together randomly, isn't that just random matchmaking?
Not to mention that she didn't have that intention towards Chu Jiuqing, even if she did, she wouldn't agree given his current status.
'No man is good for a thousand days, no flower is red for a hundred days',
Which prince in the palace does not have three wives and four concubines?
Since ancient times, the inner court of the imperial palace has been full of changes. It seems to be flourishing and glorious, but in fact, it hides countless crises.
If she really became Chu Jiuqing's concubine, although her status was noble, she would be filled with intrigue and deception.
Living in a palace is like being imprisoned in a golden cage, without dreams and freedom.
Everyone is a passer-by in life. Only the ordinary and simple life can be real, and only the simple life can be blessed.
It’s better to live an ordinary life.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I cannot obey your order. I have always regarded Prince Ning as my own brother and have never had any romantic feelings for him. I beg Your Majesty to revoke your order and allow me to return to my hometown, continue practicing medicine and help the world, and live an ordinary life."
Hearing this, Chu Jiuqing felt a little disappointed.
Although he felt bad, he knew Chen Qingqing's character very well. There would be no room for maneuver after what he said, so he took a step forward.
"Your Majesty, Miss Chen is determined to save the world and save all living things. If we force her to stay in Kyoto, I'm afraid she will be unhappy. I respect Miss Chen's choice and hope Your Majesty will grant it."
The King of Chu was somewhat displeased. Such a woman was simply treasonous. She dared to refuse his reward in front of so many civil and military officials.
His face darkened. "Bold Chen Qingqing, you are so ungrateful. Aren't you afraid that I will chop off your head?"
Chen Qingqing's heart trembled. Since ancient times, the king's words were golden and no one dared to refute them, but she repeatedly refused.
The situation is not good. I must have angered the Emperor of Chu.
Never mind. If I have to stay alive and live a life I don’t want, I might as well die.
Thinking of this, Chen Qingqing was no longer afraid. She straightened her back and said calmly, "Even if Your Majesty kills me, I will never agree to your request."
Although the words were spoken freely, Chen Qingqing was unsure in her heart. She could not figure out the Emperor Chu's thoughts. This time, she was sure that disaster was imminent.
Just as she was thinking to herself, she heard the King of Chu burst into laughter, "What a woman with strong opinions. I like her very much."
Chen Qingqing was stunned and asked cautiously, "Has the emperor agreed to let me leave?"
Emperor Chu looked at Chen Qingqing, feeling a little reluctant, but he couldn't force it any more. He sighed softly.
"Since Miss Chen has made up her mind, I will not force you. However, you have saved my life and that of my prince. Your hard work and contributions are truly remarkable, and I must reward you. I have decided to adopt you as my adopted daughter, conferring the title of Princess and granting you the fiefdom of Anyang. Are you willing?"
Chen Qingqing was overjoyed. The Black and White Impermanence had indeed not lied to her. She had truly become a royal relative, a prince, a general, and a minister.
The fief of Anyang means that the recipient not only obtains ownership of the land within Anyang, but also the population and resources on the land.
Not only did she receive all the taxes, but she also had local autonomy.
What matters most in this era is family background. If you become a princess, you are second to none and your life is completely free!
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will accept your order to express my gratitude for the reward." Chen Qingqing was very satisfied with the reward.
After the court session, Chu Jiuqing and Chen Qingqing walked side by side on the corridor of the imperial palace.
Chu Jiuqing couldn't help but recall every moment he spent with Chen Qingqing.
At that time, I was injured and lost my memory, and my brain became dull.
She didn't show any dislike for him and bought him wontons and candied haws, just like treating her relatives.
How he longed to go back to that time, but he could never go back.
He carries the entire Daning Kingdom on his shoulders. He must take the people of the world as his own responsibility and be a good emperor, so that the people of the world can live a prosperous life and the four seas will submit to him.
After a long time, Chu Jiuqing was the first to break the silence, "Qing girl, to be honest with you, I am very disappointed that you couldn't stay in Kyoto, but I respect your choice."
Chen Qingqing looked up at him and said, "Xiaoyu, thank you for your understanding. Everyone has their own aspirations, but we all have different paths to the same destination. My ambition is to be with my family, do what I love, and walk freely between heaven and earth."
"Well, then I wish you happiness forever, and may you be a free bird flying between heaven and earth."
After Chu Jiuqing finished speaking, he changed the subject.
"When you came to Kyoto, I promised you that as long as you could cure my father's illness, I would meet all your requests. Now you can ask for it, and I will agree to it unconditionally."
"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten." Chen Qingqing thought for a while, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I haven't thought about it yet, I'll tell you when I think about it later!"
"Okay, then I'll keep it for now. We'll talk about it when we're ready."
"With Prince Ning's words, no, no, now I should call him the Imperial Brother." Chen Qingqing smiled cunningly, "With the Imperial Brother's words, the Imperial Sister is relieved."
"You are wrong, sister. I am older than you. You should call me brother."
"No, no, from the beginning I treated you as my younger brother. I am your royal sister."
"Okay, I'll be your Royal Sister."
The two chatted and laughed, having a great time...
Chen Qingqing traveled in Kyoto for a few days and then returned home as a princess.
As soon as the news spread, the whole of Kyoto became lively.
In order to show his importance to Chen Qingqing, the King of Chu specially ordered the arrangement of a grand travel ceremony.
On that day, the streets were filled with people who wanted to catch a glimpse of the princess.
At the front of the team were the royal guards in armor, riding tall horses, looking majestic.
Following closely behind was a luxuriously decorated carriage.
Chen Qingqing sat in the carriage, looking out the window at the lively scene outside with interest, her heart full of emotion.
My thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the modern times.
At that time, she was just an ordinary medical worker who shuttled between various departments all day long.
I am busy running around for patients' conditions and live an ordinary yet fulfilling life.
As fate would have it, by some strange coincidence, I came to this strange dynasty.
I thought that relying on modern people's minds and superb medical skills to live a happy life would be perfect.
But she accidentally saved someone and completely changed her life trajectory.
Now she has transformed herself into Princess Anyang of the Da Ning Dynasty. Unexpectedly, she would have such a glorious moment.
With this identity, no one dares to bully you...
As the team moved forward slowly, the people wherever they passed knelt down to salute and shouted, "Long live the princess."
Chen Qingqing felt a surge of pride in her heart, but at the same time, she also felt a bit uneasy.
She knew very well that this honor was not only a respect for herself, but also a heavy responsibility.
Only by keeping your original aspiration in mind can you achieve your goal...
