After the divorce, King Zhan cried and begged me to remarry

Chapter 255 Completely Give Up on the Emperor
Chu Nanli is likely to become a big celebrity in front of the emperor, so he naturally wants to be kind to Chu Nanli.

"Excuse me, father-in-law." Chu Nanli gave Laifu a bag of money.

After Laifu left, Concubine Yu beside her was frowning.

This time she was in trouble, the emperor really didn't care about it.

Not only did he not see her, he didn't summon her, and he didn't even ask Laifu to bring her a word.

Chu Nanli probably saw what she was thinking.

"Sister, do you want to go to the Holy See with me?"

Concubine Yu sighed and shook her head, "That's all."

At this moment, she completely gave up on the emperor.

It seems that the emperor's friendship with her is nothing more than that.

After all, there are so many women around that man, and there is no shortage of her.

Chu Nanli didn't try to persuade her anymore, she could see that Concubine Yu could slowly think about it.

"Then sister, I'm leaving now," Chu Nanli said.

"Go ahead, call me if you need anything."

Chu Nanli nodded, simply arranged her clothes, and then followed Eunuch Laifu to the Yangxin Hall.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Emperor Ye Jiujun was sitting on a dragon chair, playing with a bodhi bracelet.

Seeing Chu Nanli come in, he stood up slightly and stepped forward to greet him.

Chu Nanli was a little surprised, and hurriedly saluted according to the etiquette of the princess, "See the emperor."

"Good daughter-in-law, get up quickly." The emperor smiled amiably, but there was not much emotion in his eyes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Nanli straightened up slightly.

The emperor returned to the dragon throne and sat down again.

"A seat." Lord Ye Jiu said.

He has a gentle expression, with some Confucianism on his body, but his eyes are always cold and emotionless.

Even though he is nearly forty years old, his face is still clear and handsome. It is no wonder that Concubine Yu has so much affection for him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Nanli said, sitting down slowly.

"The emperor is alienated, so call him father." Ye Jiujun chuckled.

Although Chu Nanli didn't want to get close to Ye Jiujun, she couldn't resist the order. She nodded and said, "Yes, Father."

Ye Jiujun looked at Chu Nanli with satisfaction, "My son has married a good wife."

"I dare not take it." Chu Nanli said softly.

"Daughter-in-law, you are humble. You fought against smallpox, prevented a major epidemic, and saved the people of our capital from suffering. This is a great contribution and must be rewarded."

"I don't know what reward you want?" Ye Jiujun asked with a smile.

"It is a doctor's duty to save lives and heal the wounded. There is no need for any reward." Chu Nanli thought for a while and said.

The emperor nodded in satisfaction, "You have a noble heart."

"However, if you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded according to your merits. This time, you will be rewarded with 1 taels of gold and [-] acres of fertile land in the suburbs of Beijing." Ye Jiujun said affirmatively.

Chu Nanli was a little confused, this reward was too much.

She just cured a disease, so it is unlikely that she will be paid so much.

"These rewards are too valuable. If I can't afford them, please ask my father to take them back." Chu Nanli refused.

She knows that to get anything, you have to pay a corresponding price.

"Daughter-in-law, stop being modest. You can afford this reward. You controlled the smallpox so that there would be peace both inside and outside the palace. Otherwise, many people would have died in this imperial city."

Ye Jiujun said with a faint smile, "These rewards are just trivial, how about I make you an imperial doctor?"

Chu Nanli's heart skipped a beat.

This is the true purpose of the emperor.

Naturally, she didn't want to be an imperial physician. Firstly, being an imperial physician would give her no freedom and would restrict her from doing many things.

Secondly, she didn't want to get too involved with the palace, so that she would be even more indistinguishable from Ye Yunting.

But when the emperor opens his mouth, he speaks with eloquence, and if she disagrees, it means resisting the decree.

Chu Nanli got up slowly and bowed first.

"I thank my father for your kindness, but my medical skills are really mediocre and I can't take on such an important task."

Ye Jiujun pursed his lips and gradually withdrew his smile.

Chu Nanli's heart tightened slightly.

The opposite is the Ninth Five-Year Lord, who holds the power of life and death. She still has no strength to resist the imperial power.

……

In the palace of Concubine Yang Shu.

Ye Yunting was practicing calligraphy in the study when Ye Yi hurriedly opened the door and entered.

Ye Yunting frowned slightly.

"My lord, it's not good." Yoruichi panted.

"What's the matter?"

"Princess, she wants to resist the decree!" Ye Yi said urgently.

He told Ye Yunting about the situation in the hall.

It just so happened that one of his apprentices was on duty outside the emperor's palace, and when he heard the news, he hurried to tell him.

"My lord, go and have a look, if the concubine really offends the emperor, we will all suffer!" Ye said.

Before he finished speaking, Ye Yunting quickly got up and walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Lin Fuying wanted to go up to talk to her, but only saw an afterimage.

When she asked why Ye Yunting was in such a hurry, she stomped her feet angrily.

It turns out it was for that bitch Chu Nanli again!
"She'd better offend the emperor so hard that she'll die!" Lin Fuying said harshly.

On Chu Nanli's side, after she rejected Ye Jiujun, Ye Jiujun was furious.

At this moment, the gentleness on Ye Jiujun's face no longer exists, as if the appearance full of Confucianism at the beginning was completely pretended by him.

"Chu Nanli, do you know that becoming an imperial doctor is the lifelong pursuit of many doctors?" Ye Jiujun frowned and said, the air pressure around him was very low, making people unable to breathe.

Chu Nanli nodded, and said neither humble nor overbearing, "My wife knows, but my wife's ambition is not here."

Her title changed from daughter-in-law to minister's wife.

This shows her determination to alienate the royal family.

Ye Jiujun frowned, with a cold look in his eyes.

"Do you know the fate of resisting the decree?" Ye Jiujun warned coldly.

At this moment, his aura has completely changed, and he gradually exudes the majesty of the Ninth Five-Year Lord, which is chilling.

But Chu Nanli will not compromise easily.

She guessed that the emperor would not really do anything to her.

After all, although she has temporarily controlled smallpox, it doesn't mean that no one will get smallpox in the future.

In other words, the emperor would not let her die if he still had a need for her.

She collected herself and was about to speak when she was interrupted by a familiar voice.

"Hold on."

The familiar male voice was cold with a hint of anxiety.

Chu Nanli looked back, and she saw Ye Yunting walking with big strides with a dark face.

"My son, please see your father." Ye Yunting bowed deeply.

"No need to be polite." Ye Jiujun said lightly, his tone not very pleasant.

Ye Yunting probably heard about what happened just now, so he naturally knew that Ye Jiujun was angry.

"Father extinguishes his anger, and my son apologizes for Nan Li." Ye Yunting said seriously.

"Huh? Do you apologize for her?"

Ye Yunting's attitude surprised Ye Jiujun.

His son has always had a stubborn temper, let alone bow his head.

Now for a woman, I can actually do this.

It seems that the outside rumors that the war king and the princess are at odds are completely false.

"Well, Rong Erchen advises Chu Nanli." Ye Yunting said seriously.

Ye Jiujun sneered, "Okay, then you can persuade me."

He could tell that Chu Nanli had a very stubborn temper, which was not something that ordinary people could persuade.
