Chapter 140 The Second Marriage

Concubine Chu was imprisoned in Nagato Palace by the King of Chu. Mother Xu hurriedly went to the National Palace to inform Quan Jiuzhou that Quan Jiuzhou entered the palace quickly. Chu Shixiong was still angry and sent him three words, "Let him go!"

The little Liuzi accepted the order bravely, came out from the hall, and persuaded Quan Jiuzhou earnestly: "Duke Quanguo, the emperor said that he will not see you, you should go back, it is cold here, be careful of your bones."

Quan Jiuzhou frowned, "I beg the sixth father-in-law to tell the emperor that Princess Chu is innocent, and everything was done by this humble minister."

The whole Kyushu is sick all day long, and he can't take care of himself, so he has no ability to toss about other things.

Little Six didn't believe what he said, let alone King Chu.

Thinking this way in his heart, Xiao Liuzi still said without offending others: "Then the whole country will take care of himself, and the servant will report to the emperor."

After hearing what Little Six had said, Chu Shixiong sneered, and his sharp-edged imperial demeanor almost scared him to the ground.

"Since he admits that he did it, let him go back and "recover" for three months!"

It is impossible for the whole Kyushu not to know that Princess Chu used the whole family to open the paper business.

If it weren't for the purpose of blocking the mouths of the world, the whole of Kyushu would not have been recuperating for three months.

The little six sons came out again to proclaim the king of Chu's dictation, and Quan Jiuzhou had to stand up, with a heavy expression, and walked slowly towards the palace gate alone.

Suddenly, a luxurious sedan chair appeared in his line of sight with many servants.

A eunuch saw him and reminded him, "Bye, empress and imperial concubine!"

Quan Jiuzhou looked at him suddenly, and asked him in astonishment: "What imperial concubine?"

The eunuch was hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "Ling Zhaoyi has just been canonized as the imperial concubine today."

"Ling Zhaoyi?" She's not dead yet?

Quan Jiuzhou looked at the sedan chair, his eyes were full of a complex expression that was hard to understand.

Until the sedan chair arrived in front of him, he remained motionless, as if petrified.

Suddenly, a slender white hand lifted the curtain, and Ling Zhaoyi's unforgettable beautiful eyes looked over.

Landing on his face, instead of blaming him for being rude, he nodded slightly,

Greeted like an old friend, then slowly lowered the curtain, and left with the sedan chair.

After driving away in the sedan chair, the face of the whole Kyushu was as clear as a snowy moon, flashed an imperceptible gloomyness for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, it seemed to be someone else's illusion.

All the paper shops in Jingnan Mansion in the imperial city were sealed within a day. Then, the news that the paper shops evaded taxes amounted to millions of silver came out, which immediately shocked the entire government and the public.

Everyone talked a lot, and on the second day, the boss on Zhi Xingming's face was sent to ransack his home, beheaded, and exiled.

Those businessmen who took chances and secretly evaded taxes were so frightened that they rushed to pay their taxes, for fear that they would be the next one to be found out.

The king of Chu made a move to scare the chickens and monkeys, and within a day, the Jingnan Mansion paid back millions of taxes.

Some ministers in the court have a close relationship with the eldest prince, knowing that the owner of the paper line belongs to Princess Chu, secretly worried about how the king of Chu will punish Princess Chu, and whether the eldest prince will be implicated, but there is a second message from the palace telling everyone Everyone was dumbfounded.

Ling Zhaoyi, who has no background and has not given birth to a son and a half daughter for the King of Chu, is suddenly named the imperial concubine before the Queen of Chu.

The ministers objected one after another: "Your Majesty, you can't."

The King of Chu's eyes suddenly turned cold, "I don't need you to worry about my harem!"

Princess Chu seemed to be so angry with King Chu that the ministers were afraid that King Chu would suspect that they were forming a party with the eldest prince for personal gain, so seeing his sharp eyes, they stopped talking.

The imperial concubine should be the imperial concubine, Ling Zhaoyi has no children, so it is impossible for her to be made a queen.

When the eldest prince returned triumphantly and the emperor's anger dissipated, he would definitely give the empress position to Princess Chu.

The imperial city of Jingnan Mansion is very far away from Bai Wutong and his small town in a corner. It took several days for the news to spread before Bai Wutong learned that Princess Chu used white paper for profit, but she still hadn’t made it. The tax was discovered and reported to the king of Chu.

The hearts of the people are not enough, and the concubine of Chu does not pay a cent of the tax, which is really "dare to act".

At any rate, it was his own family, the King of Chu did not punish Princess Chu on the face of it, but directly sealed a noble concubine and stepped on Princess Chu's head, which was undoubtedly the hottest slap in the face.

Before she could make a move, Princess Chu fell by herself.

Bai Wutong secretly regretted that if she was allowed to make a move, Princess Chu would use money to win over the courtiers, no matter how much the eldest prince tried to wash her off, she would not be able to wash away her ties.

Everyone has the heart of gossip.

Bai Wutong asked curiously about Ling Zhaoyi who suddenly became the imperial concubine: "Who is she?"

Although Ling Zhaoyi is beautiful, there are too many beautiful women in this world.

She has no identity background, and lived like an invisible person in Chu Palace for many years. She suddenly became a noble imperial concubine, which naturally attracted everyone's attention.

The information they inquired on the surface was only the words "Ling Zhaoyi of Chu Wangfu".

Bai Wutong sensed something was wrong, even if Ling Zhaoyi was a woman from Chu Palace, Qingfeng and the others could always find out where she was born and her family background.

However, the dark guard camp sent special personnel to investigate, but they couldn't find any clues.

This shows that the King of Chu is deliberately covering up the origin of the imperial concubine.

Qingfeng suddenly said: "When the King of Chu was in Donghua Mansion, there were rumors that the imperial concubine was married twice when she entered the Mansion of King Chu."

Donghua Mansion is the largest city in the frontier, where the Prince Chu Mansion is enfeoffed. Before the Dark Guards were eradicated, they had been secretly watching every move of the Prince Chu Mansion.

This news was discovered at the beginning, and now no one dares to spread it.

Bai Wutong lowered his eyes. If it was true, the King of Chu valued this imperial concubine quite a lot.

Bai Wutong thought this was already surprising gossip, Qingfeng said suddenly: "There are also rumors that Ling Zhaoyi was pregnant before entering the mansion."

Bai Wutong was particularly surprised. It is difficult for men in this era to accept that a woman is not innocent. If this is true, the king of Chu has a big belly.

Bai Wutong looked at Qingfeng, "Do you think it's true?"

Qingfeng said: "Let Dr. Gu know at a glance."

Gu Zhongxun can tell whether a woman is pregnant.

Bai Wutong smiled, "Forget it then."

Gu Zhongxun has no plans to enter the palace and become an imperial doctor.

After the paper shop was controlled by the king of Chu, the price of the white paper sold by the paper shop was greatly reduced. Compared with the cost, it was still expensive, but scholars who didn't know it were very moved by the king of Chu's strict control of the price of white paper.

The most indispensable thing for scholars is paper. In the past, they could only buy one piece of paper, but now they can buy ten pieces of paper. Everyone is very grateful to the King of Chu, and the courtiers even admire him for caring for the people.

The king of Chu slammed a lot of goodwill, won the hearts of scholars, and got a very profitable source.
