Chapter 29: Divorce

Everyone looked different.
His Royal Highness, this is...
Rong Xiu had already looked at Emperor Jiawen and saluted:
"My son is late, please forgive me from my father."
After speaking, I couldn't help coughing twice, and it looked like he had been sick for a long time.
Emperor Jiawen shook his head, seemingly disapproving:
"Your body has been weak since you were a child, and now you have just returned to the imperial capital, you are raising it well, why bother to support it?"
Rong Xiu smiled and glanced at Rong Jin.
"Brother's birthday banquet, as a minister, how can you not come?"
Rong Jin sneered in his heart, but smiled on his face.
"Seventh brother, this is too polite! Today is just a birthday. If it hurts your body, this palace is wrong. Sit down!"
Rong Xiu sat down beside the third prince Rong Jiu.
After that, he untied the cloak from his body, and coughed again.
It seems that this tossing has made him very uncomfortable.
Everyone looked at each other.
This Li Wang seemed to be in a bad shape.
Some ladies showed disappointment.
No matter how good he looks, with such a weak body, there is really no future.
It's a pity that this face, and the grace of that body...
Rong Xiu didn't seem to care about those things. After taking his seat, he greeted the people around him and calmed down.
Looks like a gentle gentleman who is as gentle as jade.
Rong Zhen had no impression of this seventh brother, but when he saw him handing Chu Liuyue the handkerchief, he suddenly became disgusted with him.
She sneered, her eyes turning around Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue.
"The seventh brother seems to take care of Miss Chu very much. Could it be that you have known each other a long time ago?"
Rong Xiu smiled faintly.
"It's not been a month since I returned to the emperor. Today is the first time I went out. How can I meet others?"
Rong Zhen will believe and doubt:
"Then why are you helping her like this?"
Rong Xiu paused for a moment, smiling slightly.
"I just feel that today is the brother's longevity feast. It is not good to see the blood. What's more... I came late, and I don't know what happened before. This is what happened here?"
He poured himself a cup of tea and asked casually:
"If I remember correctly, Miss Chu... seems to have a marriage contract? I don't know who it is that dare to treat the future princess like this at the prince's birthday banquet?"
Rong Zhen choked.
Rong Jin's expression was even more ugly in an instant.
Wasn't this accusing him of allowing others to bully Chu Liuyue? !
Seeing that something was wrong, the queen immediately said warmly:
"Li Wang misunderstood. Rong Zhen felt like he saw it when she saw her, so he planned to give the golden python to her. Just taming the golden python."
Rong Xiu seemed a little surprised:
"Tame the golden python? Isn't Miss Chu born with incomplete veins and unable to cultivate? Then how can we tame the golden python?"
He asked this sentence seemingly puzzled, and immediately embarrassed the Queen and others.
Rong Jin frowned, thinking it was Rong Xiu deliberately preventing him from coming to stage.
But seeing him look dazed, it seems that he really just asked this sentence subconsciously.
Besides, Rong Xiu probably didn't know about the hunting grounds.
For a while, Rong Jin couldn't tell what he was thinking, so he didn't talk to him.
Rong Zhen couldn't help but argue:
"It is clear that she made the mistake first and sold the title deed of the prince brother's hunting ground to others! Such behavior is too much!"
Rong Xiu was silent for a moment, rubbing his teacup and asked:
"Since it is the title deed to the prince, how can she sell it?"
There was dead silence in the hall.
Of course everyone knows that Chu Liuyue's name is on the title deed, but as long as she has a bit of brain, she should know that this hunting ground is very important to the prince!
She changed hands and sold, but she smashed the prince fiercely!
The prince was furious, and it was made clear today that he was going to deal with her. Otherwise, how could a banquet from the Chu family be qualified to come for such a palace banquet?
Everyone knew this well, even the empress acquiesced.
It can be said openly by a person like Li Wang, it seems that the prince's eating appearance is particularly ugly.
Chu Liuyue used the white handkerchief to slowly wipe the blood off her hands, and bend her lips.
Since he wanted to help her, she would not let this opportunity pass.
"His Royal Highness, you don’t know anything. Although this title deed is my name, but the prince and I have not been officially engaged, so we sold the title deed. It is indeed my fault. But the four princesses have already agreed, as long as I will The golden python is tamed, and the matter is written off. Fourth princess, right?"
Rong Zhen's eyes widened:
"When did this princess say this! Don't be silly!"
Chu Liuyue looked at Emperor Jiawen suspiciously:
"Your Majesty, don't you mean that?"
Emperor Jiawen didn't expect Chu Liuyue to ask so directly, and he was a little embarrassed.
He coughed and waved.
"It's just a hunting ground. Since Liu Yue has already tamed the golden python according to the agreement, then I will expose it! Zhenzhen, you will not mention it again!"
This is not only a warning to Rong Zhen, but also a warning to everyone present.
Rong Zhen was annoyed, but seeing Emperor Jiawen's eyes serious, he had to reluctantly answer.
"Yes."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Chu Liuyue didn't plan to just let it go, and sighed slightly, showing a forbearance.
"Your Majesty, Liu Yue knows that this was a gift from you back then, so naturally it is very cherished. If it weren't for being driven to a dead end, Liu Yue would never sell this land deed.
Emperor Jiawen was stunned:
"Why, what's the secret in it?"
Chu Liuyue took a deep breath:
"Your Majesty doesn't know. Because I was born with incomplete veins and my father was seriously injured a few years earlier, our life was not easy. In desperation, we had to sell the title deed and raise some money to continue our life... "
"Chu Liuyue! What are you talking nonsense!"
When the great elder heard this, he immediately got up and shouted angrily.
Is she trying to implicate the entire Chu family! ?
Emperor Jiawen glanced at the Great Elder displeased.
"Let her say it!"
The great elder was anxious, but he didn't dare to interrupt any more.
"Once, my father and I also turned to the prince for help, but...not even the prince’s people. Before I sold the land lease, I tried to discuss with the prince, but I was turned away. So..."
Rong Jin's face turned blue as well.
This Chu Liuyue is really crazy!
"Liu Yue's move is really helpless, please give your majesty a lesson."
Chu Liuyue's words were half true, but the others in the hall were inclined to believe it.
Almost everyone in the imperial capital knew a little about what life Chu Liuyue and his daughter had lived.
It is even more possible that the prince she said shut her out.
The prince hated her so much. Isn't it normal to do this?
Looking at it this way, Chu Liuyue didn't make any mistakes...
Emperor Jiawen looked at Rong Jin with a much more majestic expression.
"Prince, although you have devoted a lot of effort to that hunting ground, if you hadn't cared about Liu Yue for many years, she wouldn't have done it. If I remember correctly, her birthday will be two days after you. , Your engagement—"
Rong Jin's heart jumped.
Emperor Jiawen is very likely to let him and Chu Liuyue fulfill their marriage contract in order to preserve the royal family's face!
This will never work!
Thinking of this, Rong Jin suddenly got up.
"Father, I have something to ask for!"
He pointed to Chu Liuyue.
"Erchen wants to break the marriage contract with Chu Liuyue!"
