Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 607

"It must be the crown princess, it must be the queen, isn't it?"

Zhao Xiwei put down the cup with a "bang".

She stood up, looked down at the man in the wheelchair, and smiled coldly.

"Miss Wei." Zhao Ziyi looked up at her, suddenly felt a strange feeling, he couldn't help stretching out his hand, grabbing her sleeve, and said in a slightly anxious tone, "Listen to Dad—"

"What are you talking about?" Her wrist hung down, and she gently pushed aside his palm: "You say you have the ability to make me return to favor? Or do you say you have the means to keep my position?"

"I..." Zhao Ziyi suddenly didn't know how to answer.

"Is not it?"

She laughed mockingly: "He is the crown prince, and he will inherit the throne in the future. Whoever secures the position of crown princess will have the hope of becoming a queen in the future. How can daddy give up such a ready-made benefit?"

"Wei'er..." The corners of Zhao Ziyi's lips moved, and he murmured, "Wei'er, dad is thinking of you..."

"For my sake?" Zhao Xiwei's face became more mocking, "So you two join forces to hide all the truth from me and make me a fool who doesn't know anything?"

She lowered her eyelashes to hide the sourness in her heart: "One of you is my husband and the other is my father, but none of you is willing to tell me the truth."

She sneered, "He refused to tell me because he was guarding against the Zhao family and you, but what about you? You refused to tell me, why are you guarding against me?"

"No!" Zhao Ziyi was still in a daze, but the more she heard her talk, the more sad she became, and she quickly explained: "Dad is not guarding against you! Dad is not!"

"Why is that?" Zhao Xi slightly raised his eyes and looked at him motionless.

"I..." Zhao Ziyi avoided her scrutiny.

Zhao Xiwei waited for his answer without giving an inch.

Zhao Ziyi was silent for a long time, until she felt that her eyes were getting sharper, tearing his strong disguise to pieces, and then sighed deeply: "Sister Wei, Dad owes you and your mother a lot in this life."

"I owe your mother, my father will not pay it in this life, but I owe you... Father is working hard now, and there is still time to repay it..."

He exhaled lightly, his tone suddenly brightened, and his eyes brightened when he looked at Zhao Xiwei: "Father wants to make up for you, dad wants to give you the best, dad wants you to enjoy the wealth and glory, and be the best in the world." The most honorable woman..."

"Father!" Zhao Xiwei suddenly interrupted his imagination, and the anger in his chest shot up to the top of his head.

To make up for her is to make her the princess?Just to support her as a queen?
She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and asked, "You don't even know what I want, and you just want to make up for me?" She smiled, and asked again: "Support me to be a princess, look forward to it?" I want to be a queen, do you want it yourself, or do I want it? Have you thought about it?"

Zhao Ziyi looked stunned: "Miss Wei..."

She glanced at him lightly with the end of her eyes, a little bit sharp and a little bit cold, and she actually had a dignified demeanor of a superior, which made Zhao Ziyi even more dazed——since when did she get farther and farther away from herself?
"Then...then what do you want?" Zhao Ziyi, who looked down upon her so condescendingly and remained unmoved in the face of the emperor's fury, was suddenly at a loss, with shock and bewilderment in his eyes, "marrying the prince, isn't it?" Do you want it?"

Could it be that he was wrong?
He paid such a high price, gave up the marriage with the Jiangxia Palace, and under the pressure of being an enemy of the Queen Mother, successfully married her to the Crown Prince. In the end, it was not what she wanted?
But at the beginning, he deliberately gave her a chance to choose, and asked her wishes...

Is there any misunderstanding in this?
Zhao Ziyi frowned, and fell into deep thought.

Zhao Xiwei was in a fit of anger and didn't notice anything strange about him, but when he was still thinking about the interests of the family, he sneered again and asked, "Will you agree to whatever I want?"

Zhao Ziyi hurriedly promised: "As long as Daddy can do it, Daddy will definitely promise you."

Seeing Zhao Xiwei's sarcasm, he added: "Even if it's impossible, Dad will try his best to help you."

"Then what if I don't want to be in the East Palace anymore?"

"What?" Zhao Ziyi's pupils suddenly dilated, and she looked at her daughter in disbelief.

Zhao Xiwei was not surprised by his reaction at all, and only slowly said: "I don't want to be a princess anymore, and I don't want to be imprisoned in the deep palace like a pet, waiting for him every day. I want to be favored by him." She smiled, "Daddy, I don't want such a life at all."

Zhao Ziyi was stunned.

He never thought that his daughter would be so resistant to Dong Gong.

Suddenly recalling the scene where the crown prince pleaded for the Zhao family in front of the emperor, he hesitated again: "Miss Wei, the crown prince doesn't really want to abolish your position, it's just a stopgap measure to do this now, for-- "The tone suddenly stopped.

"for what?"

Zhao Ziyi fell into silence.

He couldn't tell his daughter that the emperor intended to chop off his own head...

Seeing his expression, Zhao Xiwei no longer insisted on asking.

Anyway, she didn't come here just to ask questions, she has more important things to explain——

"No matter how he promised you, and no matter what secrets you kept from me, I just want to tell Dad: Abolishing my position is a deliberate decision by His Highness, and there is no unspeakable reason."

"For this ending, His Highness and I have chosen to accept it calmly."

The scene in Chongwen Palace resurfaced in my mind.

The pieces of paper are like snow, and the tentacles are cold.

And what he tore up was the abolition edict drafted by him himself—soon, there will be an official document, which will be stamped by the emperor himself and circulated to all ministries. Farewell to the title "Concubine".

She remembered the look in his eyes at that time, although there was reluctance, it was more decisive, resolute, and cruel.

"Although your position is abolished, the provision of allowances remains the same as before. As long as you are still in the East Palace for a day, I can protect you for a day."

Li Xuanye is not an indecisive person, nor is she a crying person.

Withdrawing the last trace of emotion from the bottom of her heart, she calmly stated the decision in her heart: "Father, I want to leave the East Palace, leave His Highness the Crown Prince, and want to start my life again—"

With Li Xuanye's current attitude, it is impossible to leave the palace immediately.

But as long as she lays out the plans slowly and tries her best, after a long time, he might have a new person, and he will forget her as the old person...

She thought it over, as long as Zhao Ziyi was willing to work hard, she could still get out easily.

however--

"No!" Zhao Ziyi's upper body paused, and her breath became short of breath with excitement, "You must stay in the East Palace! You can't go anywhere!"

Zhao Xi laughed silently.

she knows...

In his heart, the most important thing is family interests.

It's just that she still holds the relationship between father and daughter and wants to get some support from him.

That's fine, she's fine on her own, at worst, just suffer a little bit.

Zhao Ziyi's reaction was stronger than she imagined. He pressed his palms tightly on the armrest and said, "Wei'er! You can't be like your mother!"

"What's wrong with my mother?" Zhao Xiwei's whole body trembled suddenly.
