After rebirth, I became the favorite of the powerful ministers

Chapter 21 Rejection
When Tang Chaochao came out of Fengjing's tent, he happened to meet Lin Qianxue who was coming towards him.

Her expression changed instantly, and hatred constantly filled her eyeballs.

When the other party saw her, a trace of jealousy also flashed in his eyes.

Tang Chaochao, this woman's life is really big, she didn't die like this, and those trash can't even kill a woman, how did they become the secret guards.

On the face, he looked at Tang Chaochao tenderly, "Miss Tang, are you okay, I heard that you stayed in that forest for one night, did you not get bullied by anyone?"

Tang Chaochao's eyes darkened, and he replied with a smile: "Thank you, Empress, for your concern. Chaochao is fine. Yesterday Chaochao just found a place to hide from the rain. It was the prince's subordinates who found Chaochao this morning."

Lin Qianxue raised her eyebrows: "Really? I seem to have heard that there is another man in the forest."

Tang Chaochao asked unhurriedly, "Where did you hear that? Chaochao has never seen anyone else, and I was the only one in the cave. If you don't believe me, you can ask the prince. At that time, the prince and his subordinates were there." found mine."

Lin Qianxue:
Lin Qianxue, who had no useful information, smiled, and walked away from Tang Chaochao, and walked into Fengjing's tent.

Tang Chaochao withdrew his gaze, sneered, turned around and walked towards the Tang family's tent.

Tang Jiang looked at Tang Chaochao who had come back well, nodded, said "Good rest." and left.

Mrs. Tang was waiting for Tang Chaochao, and Tang Chaochao stepped forward to bless her body, "Grandmother."

Mrs. Tang: "What's going on here? Why did you go to such a remote place and still disappear? Do you know how much trouble you have caused the emperor?"

Tang Chaochao immediately said innocently: "Chaochao didn't do it on purpose, it was Sister Qingyao who insisted on taking Chaochao to catch hares, and Chaochao reluctantly agreed. After walking for a while, she found that it was a bit remote, just like bringing her sister back, but my sister always I disagree, an assassin suddenly appeared at that time."

As soon as the assassin came out, Mrs. Tang's whole face became more serious, "Assassin?"

Tang Chaochao said honestly, "It's an assassin, otherwise Chaochao wouldn't have somehow run into the forest."

Mrs. Tang was not so easy to talk to, she asked again, "Then why did Qingyao stay where she is?"

Tang Chaochao: "The assassin seems to know Sister Qingyao."

With a "snap", Mrs. Tang's hand slapped on the table.

"Chao Chao, you must pay attention to evidence when you speak, and you didn't come here just by opening your mouth."

Tang Chaochao lowered his head, "Every sentence of Chaochao is true, if grandma thinks that what Chaochao said is a lie, why bother to ask Chaochao?"

Mrs. Tang narrowed her eyes, "Sixth girl, does she really have the guts to attack you?"

Tang Chaochao: "I don't know about Chaochao, but Chaochao has been bullied by her sixth sister since she was a child."

It's not just as simple as bullying, the mother and daughter have always been unhappy with the original owner, even if the original owner is a fool, they want to put them to death.

The grandmother of the Tang family didn't take it to heart at all, and even thought that a fool died as soon as he died, and probably it would not be a stain on the Tang family after death.

Mrs. Tang twirled the beads in her hand and snorted, "Got it, you can go out."

Tang Chaochao: "Chaochao will retire first."

After leaving Mrs. Tang's tent, she wanted to find Hongmei, but she searched around and found no one, so she went to Gu Ye's tent.

Gu Ye raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw Tang Chaochao, "What's the matter?"

"Where is Hongmei?"

Gu Ye: "She has an injury on her body, she has been sent for treatment, and she will return to you after a while."

Tang Chaochao blinked, "Thank you, my lord."

"Ah."

The two looked at each other, then turned away quickly, and Tang Chaochao also left Gu Ye's tent.

The hunting ended soon, and the winner was naturally Gu Ye, who hunted one more deer than Feng Jing.

On the first night after returning to the Tang residence, Tang Chaochao was about to go to bed when he saw the window was opened a crack.

A familiar figure stepped in.

Tang Chaochao: "My lord, there is something that needs to be explained to Chaochao."

Gu Ye sat down calmly and poured tea for himself, making it look like Tang Chaochao was an outsider.

"The king is here to ask something."

Tang Chaochao "?? Please, my lord."

"The last time I went back, what did the emperor tell you?"

Tang Chaochao's eyes flickered slightly, "That's not such an important matter."

Gu Ye chuckled lightly: "How do you know it's not an important thing, shouldn't you think about everything the emperor said?"

Tang Chaochao paused slightly, pursed his lips, and knit his brows together, "Let Chaochao think about it."

"Feng Jing, he asked me if I want to enter the palace."

Gu Ye's hand holding the teacup paused, his eyes sank, "You agreed?"

Tang Chaochao: "Of course not."

Gu Ye raised his eyebrows, took a sip lightly, and asked with a smile, "Oh? Why didn't you agree, imperial power and wealth, don't you want it?"

"That's not what Chaochao wants."

Gu Ye smiled: "Really?"

Tang Chaochao: "Chaochao wants the prince to surrender."

"It means surrender, even if you become a concubine, you can surrender."

The corner of Tang Chaochao's mouth curled up into a cruel smile, "If Chaochao agrees to become a concubine, on the wedding day, maybe the prince won't be able to see Chaochao."

She knows her patience and strength, and now she doesn't have to confront him at all.

Gu Ye coughed, "Let's go back to the previous topic, why did the emperor suddenly ask you if you want to enter the palace as a concubine?"

Tang Chaochao: "Maybe it's a test?"

Gu Ye narrowed his eyes: "Testing the meaning of the Tang family? If the Tang family has that intention, you will naturally not refuse. If you refuse, then the emperor will guess that the Tang family has no intention of becoming a foreign relative."

Tang Chaochao smiled, "Feng Jing is really acting."

He acted as if he loved Tang Chaochao so much, but in fact he still cared about himself the most. After killing her, he still dared to find a substitute similar to her, which is really disgusting!
"This king also wants to know if General Sima has the idea of ​​becoming a relative."

Tang Chaochao lowered his eyes and said sarcastically, "Grandmother brought our granddaughter into the palace naturally because of this idea."

"Then if the general knows that you rejected the emperor, will he trouble you?"

Tang Chaochao frowned, a little uncertain: "Probably not, Feng Jing just wanted to test the meaning of the Tang family, since after the test, he should have got the answer he wanted, so he won't ask grandfather again , naturally you won’t know about my refusal.”

Gu Ye rubbed the rim of the teacup with his fingers, "What if he sued General Sima?"

Tang Chaochao didn't understand: "What's the reason for doing this?"

The corner of Gu Ye's mouth curled up, "Maybe it's a man's self-esteem?"

What does this have to do with self-esteem?
