Chapter 1404

Especially Zhao Rong Junzhu. Her chest heaved up and down and her stomach was about to explode from anger. Not even in her dreams would she have thought that the person she begged and begged would be the fox spirit that she loathed the most!

She wouldn't beg. Even if she was beaten to death, she wouldn't beg a single word from that slut!

She would rather die from itching and have her skin rot than bow to her love rival!

Duke Ning was more shrewd than his daughter and his thoughts were more complicated than his daughter's. With a thought, he quickly chased after her.

"Empress, divine doctor Gu, please wait a moment."

"What else does the duke want?" Gu Qingze coldly looked at him.

"Just now my daughter was too shocked, so she spoke incoherently. What she meant was that the empress being accepted as a disciple by the divine doctor Gu is a blessing that others can't even beg for. It truly makes one envious. This duke will first congratulate the two of you. One can find a master and the other can find a good disciple, this is truly a cause for celebration!"

Duke Ning's face was filled with joy and words came out of his mouth. He cupped his hands at the two of them and the smile on his face was very sincere.

As for what he was thinking in his stomach, no one knew.

When the ministers heard Duke Ning's words, they finally reacted. Now was the best time to curry favor with the empress and the divine doctor Gu.

Thus, everyone crowded around them and congratulated the two of them.

There was only the princess Zhao Rong standing on the outside. She gritted her teeth as she stared at Chen Ning who was surrounded by everyone.

She was clearly the main character today!

This kind of glory, this kind of glory, it should have all been hers!

But she had not tasted the glory of being the main character at all. Rather she had lost all her face and she had a strange disease called psoriasis!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She almost crushed her teeth from gritting them.

"Zhao Rong, come here. Why aren't you congratulating the empress and the divine doctor Gu?"

When the princess Zhao Rong's stomach was hurting from her anger, Duke Ning pushed everyone aside and grabbed her hand, bringing her in front of Chen Ning.

"Congratulate? Why should I congratulate them! Father, why are you helping an outsider today? I am your daughter and today is your daughter's birthday. They aren't congratulating your daughter and are instead trying to flatter someone else? You want this princess to congratulate them? "

The princess Zhao Rong pushed Duke Ning away and angrily shouted.

She was used to being the ruler and having everyone revolve around her, how could she endure this kind of cold treatment?

Duke Ning couldn't wait to stuff her mouth with something. Why was this girl's brain so stupid? How could she say such offensive words out loud?

As expected, many people began to reveal looks of dissatisfaction towards the princess Zhao Rong with eyes filled with ridicule.

High Duke Ning stomped his foot in exasperation and shouted, "If you say another word of nonsense, I'll put you under house arrest and you won't be allowed to step out of the manor!"

The princess Zhao Rong shouted, "Father!"

"Chen Ning!" Duke Ning grabbed her and whispered in her ear, "Idiot, the treatment is more important. We still have a long way to go in the future!"

Zhao Rong Junzhu froze for a moment, then understood. She couldn't help but call out again, "Father!"

However, the meaning and tone of these two words were completely different.

Duke Ning gave her a look and pulled her into the crowd, arriving in front of Chen Ning and Gu Qingze.
