Chapter 26 Heart-piercing words



Although thinking of this, Qian Ruoyu shook his head with a bitter smile.

No matter how Qian Ruoyu explained, Chu Mobai probably wouldn't believe her at all.

What's more, this matter has not yet come to a conclusion, and it is still unclear who is the mastermind behind this incident.

Could it be his own sister Qian Ruolan?

But my younger sister Qian Ruolan is now the Crown Princess, and even until now, she still has a close relationship with Chu Mobai.

If it was really Qian Ruolan, how could Qian Ruolan be willing to use Chu Mobai and herself to do such a thing?

Qian Ruoyu had no choice but to smile bitterly and could only follow Chu Mobai closely. The next intersection was a path into the palace.

Qian Ruoyu remembered very clearly that this road was the way into the palace, and naturally also the way out of the palace.

"Wait for me."

Qian Ruoyu was talking behind him, but Chu Mobai kept walking forward and turned the corner.

Just as Qian Ruoyu was running over hurriedly, she suddenly turned her head and bumped into Chu Mobai's back.

Chu Mobai stopped.

Qian Ruoyu hit his head, then he covered his head and looked up.

In front of Chu Mobai stood two men in official uniforms, one old and one young.

Qian Ruoyu looked at the two people's faces and found that their expressions were somewhat familiar, so she immediately started searching in her mind.

The older one is the Minister of Personnel, Jia Guiquan.

Jia Guiquan is forty-eight years old this year. He is the Minister of Personnel, holding a very powerful position among the six ministries, and is deeply favored by the emperor.

The younger one is the Minister of Rites, Jia Daoyu.

Jia Daoyu was the son of Jia Guiquan. Both father and son served in the same court, but there were rarely any official scandals about them.

Jia Daoyu was only 23 years old but he had already served as the Minister of Rites. He was also handsome and talented, and was a well-known poet in the capital.

The difference between Jia Daoyu and Jia Guiquan is that Jia Guiquan looks shrewd and scheming, and looks exactly like the treacherous official that Qian Ruoyu saw on TV!

But... in Qian Ruoyu's memory, she knew that Ye Wang, Chu Mobai and these two people were mortal enemies in the officialdom.

While Qian Ruoyu was touching his forehead, Jia Guiquan spoke directly.

"Your humble servant greets the Night King and the Night Queen."

Jia Daoyu, who was beside Jia Guiquan, also spoke casually.

"I have met the Night King and the Night Queen."

Chu Mobai remained silent, and there was a hint of delicacy in his eyes as he looked at the two of them, making them indescribably mysterious!

Qian Ruoyu looked at this situation, scratched her head helplessly, and pouted inadvertently.

But at the same time, Qian Ruoyu also made eye contact with Jia Daoyu in front of him.

Although it was just a moment of eye contact, Jia Daoyu's eyes revealed a handsome look.

Qian Ruoyu quickly withdrew her gaze and looked at Chu Mobai's back again.

Finally, after being silent for two moments, Chu Mobai spoke.

"Um."

Just one word, or even just an interjection, was used to respond to the father and son.

When the father and son heard this, they did not move aside immediately.

Jia Guiquan said.

"Your Highness, the Night King, I heard that you were newlyweds, but I didn't expect that you would be so diligent to come to the palace to do errands on your first day. I am really shocked."

"This is truly an honor for our Great Chu State. May our Great Chu State prosper!"

Although Jia Guiquan was praising Chu Mobai so much, Chu Mobai still stood there, as still as a mountain.

Jia Daoyu took just one step forward and was about to speak when he was completely stopped by Chu Mobai.

"No need."

"If you two can't say anything to compliment others, you don't have to, lest your words sound disgusting."

Jia Guiquan smiled.

"Haha, Your Highness, you are overthinking. This is what my father and I really think. It is an honor for us as subjects to be able to contribute to the court and to our Great Chu State!"

Having said that, Jia Guiquan and Jia Daoyu still stood in front of Chu Mobai and Qian Ruoyu.

It was as if I had to spend the whole day here.

Qian Ruoyu could see that Chu Mobai didn't want to get entangled with the two of them.

But the two men refused to move aside. They couldn't let the great Chu State's God of War, King Ye, move aside, right?

Chu Mobai was thinking this in his heart when Jia Daoyu spoke.

"I heard that the prince and princess just got married, and the two of them are very affectionate. Why do you two walk one after the other? It's not pleasant to see you two?"

Jia Daoyu said to Qian Ruoyu again.

"I have met Princess Ye. She is truly a natural beauty, and she is also the daughter of the Prime Minister. It is a powerful combination for her to marry the King of Ye! If... the princess can develop the skills of Prime Minister Qian, then the court will be like a dazzling star... Your Majesty will be even more..."

"That's enough." Chu Mobai shouted.

At this time, Chu Mobai frowned slightly, and he obviously had a hint of disgust towards the father and son.

Qian Ruoyu kept pondering what Jia Daoyu had just said in his mind.

After just thinking for a few seconds, Qian Ruoyu figured it out, and at the same time, he was shocked!

Just because Jia Daoyu’s words were so heartbreaking!

Her identity was sensitive as she was the daughter of the prime minister, and the prime minister was the head of all officials. In a sense, she was the leader of all the civil servants in the court.

The Night King Chu Mobai controls a large amount of military power. In another sense, he is naturally the leader of all the generals.

The deep implication of Jia Daoyu's words naturally implies that Chu Mobai and Qian Ruoyu are in control of the court!

This has to be said to be a creepy thing.

This was only said in the imperial palace. If this sentence were put forward at the court meeting, the controversy among the officials would probably be a small matter, and it would inevitably arouse the emperor's suspicion!

At this time, Qian Ruoyu swallowed his breath.

Being suspected by the emperor is what is shown in all these TV dramas. The lightest punishment is dismissal from office and the worst is the execution of the entire family!

How could Qian Ruoyu not be worried?

I am just a newbie who has just arrived in this world for a few days. How could such a thing happen?

Qian Ruoyu blurted out in a hurry.

"Forget that. I am just a woman. The affairs of the court have nothing to do with me. I..."

As he said this, Qian Ruoyu actually walked forward and put her arms around Chu Mobai's waist.

"I just want to grow old together with my prince, and live happily ever after. The affairs of the court are not something a woman like me can interfere in. Besides, from ancient times to the present, there has never been a woman interfering in the government. I just want to love my prince and raise our children!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Mobai's eyes immediately looked over!

This was the first time that Chu Mobai looked at Qian Ruoyu in this way, which made Qian Ruoyu feel a little uncomfortable.
