Chapter 160: Enraging Concubine Shu
Concubine Chun looked at Jiang Chen, who had now reached great heights.
I couldn't believe it at all.
The little eunuch in the past has now become a marquis with great authority.
"Then I have met Lord Jiyuan Marquis!"
Having said that, Concubine Chun stood up and bowed to Jiang Chen with a smile.
"Haha, your majesty, this is embarrassing me."
After laughing and playing with Concubine Chun for a while, Jiang Chen finally left the Yanxi Palace.
As soon as he came out, he saw Eunuch De waiting outside the palace from afar.
As soon as he saw Jiang Chen coming out, Eunuch De strode over.
"The Imperial Concubine invites the Marquis to the palace for a chat!"
"Lord Jiyuan, please come with me."
Jiang Chen was somewhat shocked when he heard what Eunuch De said.
He didn't expect that Concubine Shu was so well-informed.
Before the decree to confer the title of Marquis of Jiyuan on him came down, Concubine Shu had already received the news.
"Then I'll trouble you, Eunuch De, to lead the way."
Jiang Chen couldn't refuse, so he accepted Eunuch De's invitation.
Following Eunuch De, Jiang Chen soon arrived at the familiar Yikun Palace.
Concubine Shu, who has not been seen for nearly three months, is still as dazzling and charming as ever.
"My queen, Marquis Jiyuan has arrived."
"I understand. You can go down first."
Concubine Shu, who was kneeling in front of the Buddha statue, beating a wooden fish, holding a rosary in her hand, and muttering something, said .
"Yes, my lady, I obey your command."
As he spoke, Eunuch De bowed to Concubine Shu and slowly retreated.
After Eunuch De left, Concubine Shu put down the rosary in her hand.
"You have really made it to the top , Marquis Jiyuan."
As she spoke, Concubine Shu took light lotus steps and sat on the bed with her graceful figure.
"It's all thanks to you, Madam Queen. Otherwise, I wouldn't have become a marquis."
Now that he has been conferred the title of Marquis, Jiang Chen no longer calls himself a servant.
And when he heard that Jiang Chen no longer called himself a servant.
Although Concubine Shu was a little angry, she could do nothing about it.
"Okay, tell me about your discoveries during your trip to Jiangnan."
"Have you found the whereabouts of the fourth son of the late emperor?"
As Concubine Shu said this, her eyes were fixed on Jiang Chen.
Facing Concubine Shu's questioning, Jiang Chen smiled slightly.
"Your Majesty, there is no trace of the fourth son of the late emperor in Jiangnan."
Are you kidding? You are just a concubine and you want to trick me.
The Xia Kingdom is already facing enough turmoil.
Jiang Chen didn't want to let Concubine Shu and the forces behind her get involved again.
Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu, who had originally been somewhat expectant, had a hint of dejection flash across her brows.
However, soon, Concubine Shu returned to normal.
"Since you didn't find it, forget it."
"Tell me what you are going to do next, so that the fake emperor can make you a marquis."
"I believe you are ."
After saying this, Concubine Shu lazily lay on the bed.
That graceful figure and that pair of charming long legs were clearly displayed in front of Jiang Chen.
"Your Highness, I am just a young marquis. What plans can I have?"
"As for the fight between the Emperor and the Regent, I will naturally choose the side that is bound to win."
Jiang Chen told a little lie, but in fact he was planning to take advantage of this favorable situation to reap as much benefits as possible.
In this way, you can increase your weight and strength.
Only with great power can he ensure himself in the impending chaos in Xia State.
Push your strength to the peak in one fell swoop and become one of the winners.
Seeing that Jiang Chen's answer did not allow her to find any flaws, Concubine Shu said with a little displeasure.
"Jiang Chen, you are a smart man."
"Haven't you always been curious about the power behind me?"
"My Lady, which force is behind you?"
"For me, it doesn't matter now."
"I just want to live well!"
Seeing the obvious attempt to win over Concubine Shu in the conversation, Jiang Chen rejected it outright.
"Think about it carefully, don't rush to refuse."
"The blood jade I gave you was also provided by the power behind me."
"If you are willing to join my camp, your Qiansha skills will be improved at a faster rate."
Seeing that Jiang Chen wanted to refuse, Concubine Shu continued to persuade him.
Although Jiang Chen, the Marquis of Jiyuan, can only have 800 private soldiers.
But don’t forget, Jiang Chen has another identity—Minister of War!
As the Minister of War in charge of the military affairs of the Xia Kingdom, he could mobilize 2,000 garrison troops from the imperial capital in times of emergency.
That means mobilizing 2,000 defenders, which is already quite significant.
"What if I don't agree?!"
Jiang Chen was obviously getting a little impatient with Concubine Shu's tireless attempts to win her over.
Jiang Chen was very disgusted with Concubine Shu's strong sense of superiority.
"If Marquis Jiyuan doesn't agree, then it looks like Prince An will take the throne."
"You, the Marquis of Jiyuan, will have to be buried with the current emperor!"
As she spoke, Concubine Shu looked at Jiang Chen coldly.
In response to Concubine Shu's threat, Jiang Chen just smiled coldly.
He finally found out that Concubine Shu was Prince An's woman!
No wonder she has such a rare item as blood jade.
Although blood jade is very rare in the territory of Xia Kingdom, it is not a very valuable thing in Canglang Kingdom.
Therefore, as King An who was guarding the border between Canglang Kingdom and Xia Kingdom.
If you want to get a piece of blood jade, it is very easy.
After finally finding out who was behind Concubine Shu, Jiang Chen no longer wanted to rely on her.
You know, the real fourth son of the late emperor, Jiang Chen, and Prince Huai'an had considered it for a while.
Definitely a wise lord!
What's more, as a commoner, he understood the sufferings of the common people better than any royal noble.
He is also more qualified to sit on this seat than any other princes!
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen bowed to Concubine Shu without changing his expression .
"I, Jiang Chen, have only one thought, and that is to live well."
"If your majesty has nothing else to do, I will go back first."
"Goodbye!"
After saying that, Jiang Chen walked out towards Lingkun without looking back.
He didn't care at all what Concubine Shu felt.
Looking at Jiang Chen's departing back, Concubine Shu threw the rosary in her hand away angrily.
"What a Jiang Chen! Do you really think you can do whatever you want just because you've become a marquis?!"
"It seems that I will teach you a lesson."
"You really think of yourself as someone important!"
"I will let you know, even if you become a marquis."
"But in front of me, you will always be that dog slave whose life is at risk!"
After leaving Lingkun Palace, Jiang Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He actually did it on purpose to anger Concubine Shu just now.
Only in this way could he make Concubine Shu take the initiative to reveal who was behind her.
