Chapter 423 Unfavorable Rumors
After Guan Jue left, Chu Chengyi carried Chu Qinshu back to the bedroom. He also wanted to catch up on some sleep.
In the space, Xiao Jin turned off Chu Qinshu's video the moment Xiao Hulu came back.
Seeing that Xiao Hulu ignored it, it didn't say anything, but silently handed over a beggar chicken.
Although spiritual pets do not need to eat, who can resist the desire for food?
Besides, the little gourd has known it for thousands of years, so how could it not understand it?
Between them, there is no problem that a beggar chicken cannot solve. If there is, just have a few more.
Sure enough, when Little Gourd saw the beggar chicken, he forgot everything else, even his own owner.
Fortunately, Chu Qinshu couldn't bear it anymore, so she sent it and the Eagle King back to the space and then went out directly.
Otherwise, this one called Flower Chicken will definitely be snatched away for food.
"Drink coconut juice, freshly opened."
Xiao Jin saw that Little Gourd was eating happily, and was afraid that it would choke, so he quietly opened the coconut on the side.
Xiao Hulu happily took it and said, "Thank you, Xiaojin, you are so nice."
With a beggar chicken and a cup of coconut juice, Xiao Hulu and Xiao Jin reconciled.
Little Hulu even forgot why he ignored Xiao Jin.
Chu Qinshu slept for three days, and Chu Chengyi held her in his arms for three days. He held her when he went to court, held her in the study, and held her when he returned to Jinseyuan.
Emperor Yongping was extremely envious.
"Zihuan, let father hold Shu'er."
"Shu'er is asleep. She will wake up if you hug her."
"How could that be? Father has held her before, so she won't wake up."
"When Father held her, she was still young, so she naturally wouldn't wake up. But now she is almost three years old, and she is very alert. She will not sleep well if someone else holds her."
"Father is her grandfather, how can he be considered an outsider?"
"The Emperor is not an outsider, but the Emperor who doesn't protect her is an outsider."
"You...are you trying to piss me off to death?"
"I dare not, I just love my daughter dearly."
The conversation between father and son could not continue.
Emperor Yongping was very angry. His second son had been buried for such a long time, but Zihuan was still holding on to him.
Can't you be more generous? When a person dies, all debts are forgiven, right?
Now that Prince Ning is gone, Chu Chengyi certainly no longer cares about what happened before, but the throne of Prince Ning is still there.
Prince Ning did not want any of his two legitimate sons to succeed to the throne.
How can a person who has been evil since childhood be qualified to inherit the throne?
As their uncle, he would not eradicate them completely, but he would also not give them the opportunity to fully develop.
"Forget it, forget it. Let's keep the throne of Prince Ning's Mansion for now. The second son has so many sons, we can always pick a good one."
Emperor Yongping naturally knew where Chu Chengyi's emotions came from, and silently drew a big red cross on the drafted imperial edict.
This meant that he was compromising and no longer insisted on letting Chu Yanjie, the eldest son of Prince Ning, inherit the throne.
"Father, I will return to the East Palace first. Shu'er is always in my arms and can't sleep well."
When Chu Chengyi saw Emperor Yongping compromise, the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.
"Go, go, wait for Shu'er to wake up and bring her to see me."
Emperor Yongping no longer insisted. A broken heart cannot be healed, just as a cold heart cannot be warmed up again. He had done his best for Prince Ning.
He also seemed to really feel indebted to his legitimate son and granddaughter.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is just distressed for Princess Anping. He remains as filial to you as ever."
Lin Fu took the fruit he had just taken out of the ice cube and gently placed it on the table.
There are many kinds of fruits, including all that Emperor Yongping likes.
The East Palace sends one every day without interruption.
As for water bags, no one else had given them to him except Emperor Yongping, who still received two water bags every day.
In Fengning Kingdom, Emperor Fengning is playing chess with Master Jingkong.
The prince walked into the hall in a hurry, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
"What happened?"
Emperor Fengning's heart could not calm down. Even though he played chess with Master Jingkong every day, he was still nervous.
"I have met the emperor and Master Jingkong before."
Prince Fengning seems to be about the same age as Chu Chengyi, but he is not as calm and is also very dependent on Emperor Fengning.
"I heard a rumor today that is very unfavorable to our Fengning Kingdom."
Because it was just a rumor, Prince Fengning was unsure whether to tell it or not.
Emperor Fengning looked at Master Jingkong and saw that he did not stop him, so he said to Prince Fengning, "Tell me about it."
"Yes, I was observing the people's sentiments in the streets today and heard people saying that we should lend money and food to the Red Spirit Kingdom. They also said that the Red Spirit Kingdom has sent their prime minister to Fengning to take the money and food back to the country."
This rumor was so confusing that Prince Fengning did not take it seriously at first and thought he had heard it wrongly.
But he had been in the market for more than an hour and heard this saying dozens of times, so he called the man who had said this to ask him about it.
The source of this statement could not be found out by asking the common people, so he could only ask the Jingzhao Prefecture to investigate it quickly.
"How could there be such a rumor? Why would I want to get involved with the Red Spirit Nation?"
When Emperor Fengning heard this, he was immediately frightened and looked at Master Jingkong anxiously.
"Don't worry, the Prime Minister of Chiling Kingdom cannot reach Fengning Kingdom."
Master Jingkong stroked his white beard and did not take the rumor seriously at all.
"Master, are you serious?"
Emperor Fengning didn't dare to believe it, fearing that the Prime Minister of Chiling Kingdom would really come to Fengning Kingdom.
Although the two countries had joined forces to attack Sheng'an several decades ago, neither side gained anything after fighting for several years.
Finally, a peace treaty was signed with Sheng'an.
But no one can erase the fact that we have joined forces.
This time, he just wanted Sheng Anguo not to remember him. He dared not have anything to do with the Chiling Kingdom.
"Monks do not tell lies."
Master Jingkong was very calm and didn't say a single unnecessary word.
"Well, then I naturally believe in the Master."
Emperor Fengning didn't figure out the secret, but he was too embarrassed to show it in front of Master Jingkong.
"Well, I will return to the National Temple first and come back tomorrow to play chess with Emperor Fengning."
Master Jingkong saw that the father and son still had something to say, so he stood up and said goodbye.
Emperor Fengning did not try to keep him. After he left, he asked the prince, "Do you understand what the master meant?"
Prince Fengning thought for a moment before saying, "Father, I believe that all the cities adjacent to Chiling and Fengning have fallen into the hands of Sheng'an, so Master Jingkong said that the Prime Minister of Chiling cannot come to Fengning."
"Well, my son is right. It must be so. It must be so."
Emperor Fengning felt that what his son said made sense, but he was not very clear about the war situation between the two countries.
Even if there is news coming back every day, it will always be delayed for a few days.
In his heart, he only hoped that Sheng'an Kingdom would move faster and never give Chiling Kingdom a chance to be contaminated by his Fengning Kingdom.
As for what will happen to Fengning Kingdom after they finish fighting.
Master Jingkong said that you will know when the time comes.
