As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the court.

"Nonsense, General Qu has always been loyal, how could he surrender to the enemy?"

"It is obvious to all that Qu Shen surrendered to the enemy on the battlefield. What is there to argue about?"

"Shut up, there must be something wrong with this matter, we can't just listen to this person's one-sided words, we should send someone to investigate!"

"You protect Qu Shen so much, don't you mean to seek rebellion like him?"

"Fart, you old man, how dare you insult me!"

The members of the Qu family quickly came out to argue, but they were immediately attacked by the Zhao family.

The whole court hall became noisy, like a vegetable market.

It wasn't until the servant yelled for silence that everyone finally fell silent.

At this moment, King Chu's complexion has become extremely ugly.

An entire army of one hundred thousand was defeated. Although this was not a serious injury to Chu State, it was still a heavy loss.

Pensions for dead soldiers, a series of appeasement for injured soldiers, etc. are all a huge expenditure, which makes the treasury, which is not rich, even worse.

What's more terrible is that Zhao Baixi is the confidant of the king of Chu. When the army was first discussed, it was the king of Chu who resisted all opinions and asked Zhao Baixi to lead the army.

Now, once the army is defeated, it is tantamount to a slap in the face of King Chu.

"Qu Shen's collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country is an unforgivable crime!

"Come here, arrest the Qu clan, kill the men, and sell the women into the music workshop!"

In order to cover up his mistake, the King of Chu didn't intend to investigate the truth at all, and directly blamed the Qu clan for the crime.

However, as soon as this remark came out, the court exploded again, and the voices of intercession and criticism were endless.

Even those neutral ministers began to intercede for the Qu family.

"Your Majesty, you must not do it. How can the Qu clan be loyal and good throughout the generations, how can you treat them like this?"

"Think twice, Your Majesty, the Qu family has a reputation for benevolence and righteousness among the people, and rashly committing crimes may destabilize the hearts of the people!"

"How is it different from a tyrant when a king is good at killing loyal ministers?"

However, the more everyone persuaded, the more the King of Chu resisted.

In his opinion, this group of people did everything possible to clear the name of the Qu family, they just wanted to point the finger of defeat at themselves.

What a wolfish ambition!

Thinking of this, King Chu immediately made up his mind.

"My widow has made up my mind, anyone who persuades me again will be an accomplice of the Qu family!"

As soon as this remark came out, no one dared to speak anymore.

However, the eyes of many people in the court hall were full of grief and indignation.

The king of Chu's move planted a seed for the tearing of the court in the future.

Old people meet here, but Nvying is unhappy.

Chapter 289 Zhao Ji and Lao Ai, a fateful encounter

Old people meet here, but Nvying is unhappy.

This bastard Cao Chao actually brought back two wild women, how could Nvying, who was already jealous, bear it.

Men are big hooves!

At the beginning, we agreed to only love me and my sister, but now?

It really is a man's mouth, you deceitful ghost!

I hate that group of brainless women, who still think that this is a helpless move made by a stinky man in order to win over the Yi people.

I bother!

The more Nvying thought about it, the more irritable she became, wondering if she should touch it quietly and cast a curse of six souls on the two sisters.

Let's see if these two vixens dare to seduce my wife's husband!

After thinking about it, he just fell down on the bed in a daze and fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but I just feel that my body is getting heavier and heavier.

With a sudden heartbeat, she suddenly opened her beautiful eyes, and a silhouette of a man came into view in the haze.

Nvying came to her senses in an instant, a surprise flashed under her eyes, but she pretended to be disdainful and said,

"Hehe, why is your majesty here? Don't you have to pay those two vixens of the Yu family?"

"Snapped!"

However, as soon as the words fell, the buttocks were slapped heavily.

Burning pain.

Nvying was suddenly furious.

"How dare you hit me!"

"You are my woman, I can hit you whenever I want!"

Cao Chao's upright look made Nvying so angry that she almost lost her mind.

As the saying goes, it varies from person to person.

Different women have to be treated in different ways.

Cao Chao chose to act more forcefully when dealing with women like Nvying who were somewhat wild and naturally worshiped the strong.

The female hero rushed towards the man with all her teeth and claws, but in exchange for the man's suppression.

"I fought with you!"

"Come on, hurt each other, whoever is afraid of whom!"

"I... Mmmmm!"

Nvying's anger was full, causing a storm.

It wasn't until two hours later that the wind and waves stopped suddenly.

"You promised not to bully me again!"

Leaning in Cao Chao's arms, Nvying pouted and said, with two touches of blush on her face.

"I lied to you!"

Unexpectedly, Cao Chao didn't hide anything, and said directly.

The beautiful eyes blinked a few times, and Nvying realized that she had been tricked by this stinky man.

Just as she was about to get angry, her chin was clamped by the man's fingers.

Before he could figure out what was going on, his neck was raised forcefully and he was forced to look at the man.

"You are mine, and I like to bully you!

"I will bully you all the time, even when I am old and at the last moment before I die, I will bully you!"

The deep voice pierced into the ears, and the man's love words flowed through Nvying's heart like a trickle.

A heart was finally touched.

At this moment, the previous anger dissipated, and the resentment towards the sisters of the Yu family also dissipated, leaving only sweetness.

Nvying lowered her head, rarely showing her daughter's shyness.

A beautiful smile appeared on Qiao's face, and she gently pulled her hair with her fingers, feeling inexplicably weak.

"You really love me?"

The corner of Cao Chao's mouth twitched, and he turned the woman over, facing away from him.

"Love, don't just say it with your mouth!

"Now let you feel how much I love you!"

"???"

……

Xianyang, Zhilan Palace, brightly lit.

This is the most beautiful palace in the entire palace, even more gorgeous than the Zhangtai Palace of Qin Wangzheng.

Under the lights, a tall figure stood in the empty palace.

The stunning red floor-length dress, with gold thread trim at the neckline, hides towering snow peaks and delightful ravines inside.

As the breeze blew, the tulle on her body was lifted, revealing her slender waist, which made her chest even more majestic.

However, at this moment, on the white cheeks, a pair of beautiful eyes lost their focus, and they were staring at the flickering candles in the distance, dazed.

Lu Buwei hadn't been here for three full months, and her son Yingzheng hadn't even shown up in front of her for half a year. Zhao Ji felt as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.

For her, the palace was like a prison.

Here, no one cares about her feelings, no one takes pity on her beauty, she has to bear the identity of queen mother every day, and live a boring life day after day.

Just like the flickering candle, it will be extinguished at any time.

"Queen Mother, Xiangbang sent someone to serve you."

"Ok?"

Zhao Ji came back to her senses, and looked at the servant in front of her, with indifference and impatience in her beautiful eyes.

"I don't need Lu Buwei's people, let him go!"

The long-term single life made Zhao Ji's character violent and irritable.

However, at the next moment, when she saw clearly the person following behind the servant, she suddenly froze.
