Fang Yiyun was not the only one who was shocked when she saw Chu Qing putting on airs in public.

The family members brought over by the officials discussed the matter in low voices, and even the pedantic cabinet ministers began to have ideas.

Although the wife of the Chu Qing, who was a first-grade Fang Yiyun, already had a master, the positions of the two vice ranis had always been vacant.

Moreover, the Chu Qing had been busy with the affairs of war and the imperial court and had no children yet...

Along the way, countless people fixed their eyes on Chu Qing.

Unlike the probing and measuring gazes, the eyes of the Minister of Rites were slightly red.

Zhao Xiaoyi was a little puzzled. "Father, don't you hate the Chu Qing the most? Why do I feel that you seem to be very worried about him?"

The Minister of Rites patted Zhao Xiaoyi gently on the hand and said, "Some things are not as simple as they look..."

Thinking of what Chu Qing had told him that day, the Minister of Rites couldn't help sighing. "Yi'er, you have to remember that it's not easy to be a good person, and it's even harder to be a loyal minister in this world..."

Zhao Xiaoyi was a little puzzled. "Why? Your Highness is already in charge of the Jin Kingdom. Even the new emperor has to submit to Your Highness..."

"Shut up!" The Minister of Rites quickly scolded Zhao Xiaoyi. "You can't say that again. How can you interfere in the private affairs of Your Majesty and the Chu Qing at will?"

Zhao Xiaoyi was stunned.

Could it be...

A terrible thought emerged from the bottom of her heart.

Could it be that everything in front of her... was fake?

What was a loyal minister?

If the loyal minister that her father just mentioned was not himself, then it could only be... the Chu Qing, right?

He noticed that Zhao Xiaoyi did not look well.

The Minister of Rites gritted his teeth and said, "Yi'er, if I send you to the Chu Qing Mansion..."

"Father, are you crazy?!" Zhao Xiaoyi turned pale. "I'm the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites. My mother is the lady surnamed Liu in Hexi. How noble I am! But you want me to be a concubine?"

The Minister of Rites wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. "I... I..."

Zhao Xiaoyi said, "Father, even if I die of old age in the nunnery, I won't lower myself to be a concubine. Have you forgotten what you have taught me for more than ten years?"

The Minister of Rites said with a wry smile, "Yi'er, please let me think about it again..."

On the other side.

Chu Qing was walking at the front of the line and didn't know what the people behind were thinking. She probably wouldn't react even if she knew.

She was just traveling here for two years at most. When the Hero was in power, it would be time for her to leave.

Feeling that her belly didn't hurt anymore, Chu Qing suggested, "Your Majesty, how about making a bet with me?"

"Bet on what?"

Chu Qing looked back at the Ferghana Horse under Yan Lin and was very jealous. "How about we use our Ferghana Horses as a bet between the emperor and me when we arrive at the hunting ground first?"

Yan Lin was so angry that he laughed. "Nothing."

Why was this despicable villain so childish today?

After being rejected, Chu Qing was not annoyed. "I've been in poor health recently. Your Majesty is so kind that you will definitely hunt some prey for me to nourish my body when we go to the hunting ground later, right?"

Anyway, whoever wanted to go hunting can go. She didn't want to move now.

Yan Lin looked a little gloomy. "I'm afraid it's against the rules."

There was a rule in the Jin Kingdom that if a prey was given on the hunting ground, they would either be engaged or be filial to their elders.

As for the two men of them...

"What's wrong with the rules?" Chu Qing chuckled and said, "I'm the rule."

"And during this period of time, I've put in a lot of effort for Your Majesty. Can't I live up to Your Majesty's filial piety?"

Yan Lin, "..."

Taking advantage of the fact that the people next to her were far away, Chu Qing suddenly said with some evil pleasure, "Good son, come on, call me Dad."

Yan Lin, "!"

Even Yan Lin, who was used to being angry, couldn't help pulling out his sword and rushing to Chu Qing. "I'll fight you to the death!"

Although Yan Lin had improved a lot recently, compared with Chu Qing, he was still too weak.

"Trusteeship, Xiaoyi."

[... The Host! If you fight with the Hero, your life span will be deducted by 50%!]

"Don't talk nonsense. Trusteeship!"

[... ... System trusteeship in progress... ...]

[Successful trusteeship!]

Chu Qing handed over Yan Lin's weapon in less than two moves, and then subdued Yan Lin horizontally on the horse. "Are you convinced?"

"Kill me if you can!"

Yan Lin glared at him with bloodshot eyes. "I couldn't even take one move from you before, but today, I can. If you don't kill me today, I'll definitely cut you into pieces in the future!"

"Tsk, you?" Chu Qing rolled her eyes elegantly and said, "As long as you can't defeat me, you won't be able to turn the tables. Moreover, even if you can, at least 60% of the officials in the entire Jin Kingdom are under my command. What do you think you can order me and fight me?"

Yan Lin suddenly looked up at the guards not far away, but they turned a blind eye to it.

Even the ministers looked away one after another.

Fortunately, Chu Qing knew that she had to save face for Yan Lin and stop their subordinates from making noise.

Moreover, she parked the carriage of the Western Region in the middle. The front was blocked by the guards, so basically, no one knew what was going on in the back.

Yan Lin noticed the atmosphere of ignorance and contempt around him, and he felt as if a ball of fire was burning in his chest. "The victor is king, and the loser is bandit. The Chu Qing can do whatever you want with me."

"Not bad." Chu Qing smiled and said, "It seems that Your Majesty has been studying very hard recently. You are much better at talking."

Yan Lin felt humiliated.

He didn't want to be the emperor.

When he was locked up with those "brothers and sisters" who were related to him by blood, if they hadn't said that only one of them had survived, he wouldn't have wanted to get involved at all.

During this period of time, he had been humiliated by this person every day. He was getting used to it, and he even felt that it was not bad.

But why was it today...

Yan Lin turned to look at Chu Qing with a trace of grievance in his eyes. "What do you want..."

"Are you convinced?"

"I can't accept this!"

"Pa!"

Chu Qing slapped Yan Lin on the head and asked, "Are you convinced?"

“…”

"Pa!"

"Are you convinced?"

"... No way!"

"Pa!"

…

In the end, Yan Lin felt a burning sensation on the back of his head.

It didn't hurt.

But it was very embarrassing.

They should be surrounded by the guards of Chu Qing, otherwise...

"The Winter Hunting Ground is ahead, so are you convinced?"

Yan Lin blushed slightly and said in a low voice, "Yes..."

Chu Qing quickly helped Yan Lin sit up and let him sit in the front seat. "Good boy, Daddy's good boy."

Yan Lin, "..."

Yan Lin was so angry that he almost exploded on the spot. He ignored Chu Qing for the whole day.

No matter how Chu Qing teased him, he remained indifferent.

Chu Qing curled her lips and said, "Remember to hunt two musk deer for me to make a pair of double-layered boots and a few foxes into a cloak."

Yan Lin, "Ha."

He turned around and left.

If he hunted for her, he would change his surname to hers!

Chu Qing tutted and said, "What a bad temper."

However, when the ceremony was over and Chu Qing returned to the tent, her face instantly turned pale.

Chu Qing couldn't help complaining to Xiaoyi in her mind, "It's really... If I had known earlier, I would have written a novel about cultivation. It really hurts when I'm having my period..."

Xiaoyi, [The Host, I have to remind you that if this is a world of cultivation, women will have menstruation.]

Chu Qing said, "Fuck, it's a kind of plant."

Chu Qing slowly came to the bedside, and her face darkened.

There was no pad in ancient times. She used the 'menstrual pad' that the original owner had hidden before.

It was simply... very difficult to use!

Without brown sugar, Chu Qing took a sip of hot tea and lay down.

However, before Chu Qing could rest for a while, the voice of a guard came from the door. "Your Highness, the Sixth Princess of the Western Region asks to see you."

Chu Qing, "..."

Fuck!

A plant!
