Chapter 523
Min Yan purposely straightened his body to face Chu Qi, with a worried expression on his face, but in the face of Chu Qi's coercion, he still looked like a little ghost in the adult paradigm.

After half-kneeling and saluting, Chu Qi stood up again and replied, "It was the regent who sent someone to come here."

Chu Qi turned sideways and calmly shifted his gaze to King Changying.

As soon as it was mentioned that it was the meaning of the regent, the little emperor was speechless.

Without waiting for Min Yan to speak again, King Changying stood up on his own initiative, and said first: "General Chu has done a great job in protecting His Majesty, so naturally he should be rewarded."

King Changying showed a gentle smile, met Chu Qi's gaze, and did not back down.

Seeing that Min Yan hadn't made a sound for a long time, the smile on King Changying's face couldn't hold back, and he reminded slightly stiffly, "Your Majesty?"

Min Yan stared straight at Chu Qi, like a child who was extremely disobedient but had to bow his head, and asked forcefully, "What reward does General Chu want?"

"I never thought about it."

Chu Qi turned around, bent down and bowed again, "It is the duty of a minister to protect His Majesty."

Apparently, Chu Qi's words of abiding by the rules of etiquette offended the little emperor again, and he looked at him even more impatiently.

No matter how unhappy Min Yan was, she did not dare to punish Chu Qi.

After all, Chu Qi was found by King Changying, and he had his own intentions.

The right to speak rests with King Changying.

"General Chu is so dedicated to His Majesty, if he is not rewarded and the news spreads, will the hearts of other loyal soldiers feel cold?"

"The regent is too worried."

Chu Qi replied neither humble nor overbearing: "It is better to serve the country with a loyal heart than to be a knight. What you do is for the people of the world. Your majesty is the king of a country and the pillar of stability in the country. To protect your majesty's safety, I will certainly die."

"All right!"

Min Yan was obviously very troubled by Chu Qi's remarks that were almost the same as the Taifu's professor, and said displeasedly: "Since General Chu insists on resigning, Uncle Huang should not embarrass General Chu."

"His Majesty……"

King Changying lowered his voice and looked at the little emperor with a hint of warning.

Min Yan began to pretend to be stupid again, returning to her previous indifferent and stupid appearance, and raised her voice: "Why don't you guys stop dancing? I haven't finished watching this dance yet!"

The singers didn't know what to do for a while, they looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to make a sound.

"..."

Chu Qi lowered his eyebrows, as if he was a little speechless to Min Yan's ineffective appearance, and more powerless.

King Changying smiled and smoothed things over and said: "It's rare that Your Majesty has such a good mood, just to give a seat to General Chu, let General Chu enjoy this wonderful dance together."

After the words fell, someone soon set the banquet table.

The sound of silk and bamboo in the camp sounded again, and the singers danced again.

King Changying: "Please, General Chu."

"..."

Chu Qi had no choice but to walk over and sit down.

Melon and fruit snacks, dishes, wine and meat are served on the table.

The little palace maid who was kneeling beside the desk and bringing the golden cup to the table lowered her head in awe, never daring to sneak a glance at the calm and pretentious general beside her, and after serving all the food, she respectfully retreated behind Chu Qi standby.

King Changying sat across from him.

Seeing that Chu Qi hadn't moved his chopsticks or wine glass, King Changying couldn't help saying, "Why is General Chu so happy?"

King Changying turned his head, gestured to the little maid standing behind Chu Qi with his eyes, and said solemnly: "Aren't you going to serve the general with wine?"

Shi Qing blinked.

Noticing that no one on the left or right stepped forward, she knelt back to the table and reached for the tremella pot on the table.

A slender wrist protruding from the pink gauze sleeve crossed in front of her eyes.

"No need..."

Chu Qi was about to blurt out his polite refusal, but when he raised his eyes, the words choked abruptly in his throat.
