Chapter 197: Prince Longevity (27)

Yan Gui was suddenly granted kingship, which was originally a gesture laced with humiliation as he was bestowed upon Prince Cheng's Residence; however, in the blink of an eye, it turned into a formal granted marriage.

Nobody knew why the Emperor wanted to do this.

Even Yan Gui himself was clueless.

The Little Taoist Priest was complaining to Chuzheng at this time, "Raise my pay! I must have a raise! I have to be cautious about everything in the palace! You think this is easy for me?"

"Everyone in the palace treats you like an honored guest, you get whatever you ask for, and you're still not satisfied?" Chuzheng was of course very willing to go along with his suggestion.

A Little Taoist Priest who got a raise was a good Taoist Priest.

"You try staying in the palace," retorted the Little Taoist Priest with a roll of his eyes. "I'm meant to wander the world, how can I waste my life within those palace walls?"

One late evening, Chuzheng suddenly sought him out.
