The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

The princess's servants immediately ran out to report to the authorities, and others went to the palace to deliver the message.

They don't have the ability to come in and capture Princess Chen'an.

Didn't you see that all those guards were killed with a single blow?

They didn't even see Princess Chen'an's moves clearly.

They're not up to the task; let's call in an expert!

The other women were terrified.

Qi Zhiyu is truly lawless!

She even dared to hit the eldest princess, what is she trying to do?

Qi Zhiyu didn't care what they thought and pulled her mother to sit down.

Drink tea when you're supposed to, eat snacks when you're supposed to.

Seeing Qi Zhiyu calmly eating and drinking amidst the corpses of guards scattered on the ground, the crowd was filled with even more panic.

The sight of the corpses on the ground and the pervasive smell of blood inside made them want to run away as fast as they could.

But... they had a vague feeling in their hearts.

Qi Zhiyu will not let them leave.

They dare not gamble.

I'm afraid I'll lose my life.

Qi Zhiyu, she really does kill without hesitation!

"Princess!" The prince consort burst in from outside.

It is clear that he rushed over immediately after receiving the news.

His forehead and temples were covered in sweat, and his eyes were filled with tension and panic.

"My husband..." The princess burst into tears upon seeing her husband.

Even though the prince consort already knew what had happened, he was still shocked to see so many corpses lying on the ground.

The prince consort nervously swallowed, carefully avoiding the corpses, and quickly walked to the princess's side.

The princess finally found a powerful backer after meeting the prince consort.

She nestled in the prince consort's arms and began to sob, feeling utterly wronged.

The prince consort gently comforted the princess.

Soon, there was some commotion in the courtyard.

Hearing the sound of armored vehicles, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Their lives were saved!

Their hearts were pounding the whole time, fearing that Qi Zhiyu would go berserk and kill them all.

Emperor Kangwu entered with his entourage.

Upon seeing this, everyone immediately knelt down to pay their respects.

Emperor Kangwu walked to the main seat and sat down, and then everyone stood up.

"Royal brother!" the princess cried, her face covered in handprints. "You must stand up for me!"

Emperor Kangwu glanced at the eldest princess before asking, "Chen'an, what happened?"

"The Princess's little banquet is just an attempt to ruin my reputation," Qi Zhiyu bluntly stated the Princess's purpose.

"The first thing they said was that I didn't look like I had suffered."

"When I heard her say that, I knew she was going to say that it was because I was petty and intolerant that I drove Qi Pingle away, which led to the whole series of events that followed."

"I exposed the princess's intentions first, and she became furious and ordered the guards to arrest me."

Emperor Kangwu lowered his head and looked at the eldest princess: "Is what Chen'an said true?"

"Brother, I just feel..."

Emperor Kangwu coldly interrupted the eldest princess's explanation: "Is it or isn't it?"

The eldest princess pouted, looking aggrieved: "Yes."

"But Chen'an killed my guards!"

"That was one of my people, and she killed her just like that!"

"Who gave her the guts?"

Without Qi Zhiyu needing to speak, Emperor Kangwu simply asked, "You sent the guards to arrest Chen'an?"

"Yes, that's right," the princess said matter-of-factly. "She offended me, so she should be arrested and taught a good lesson!"

"You scoundrel!" Emperor Kangwu roared, "You sent a stranger to arrest the princess! Where's your brain?!"

The eldest princess's expression changed, and she looked at Emperor Kangwu in disbelief.

Her imperial brother actually insulted her!

He actually insulted Qi Zhiyu because of that bitch!

In the past, her elder brother would never say a harsh word to her.

"Royal brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you protecting Chen'an?" the eldest princess asked angrily.

How could her brother, the emperor, show favoritism towards others and reprimand her?

The prince consort understood Emperor Kangwu's meaning and hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, the eldest princess is somewhat inappropriate in this matter."

"But with Princess Chen'an's skills, she should have been able to avoid it. Why would she have to kill someone?"

"Yes!" the eldest princess immediately protested.

"Killing one wasn't enough for her; she wanted to keep killing!"

The eldest princess pointed to the corpses on the ground: "Chen An killed all of these!"

"Chen'an." Emperor Kangwu looked at Qi Zhiyu. "What do you have to say?"

"The princess ordered me to be captured, regardless of my life or death," Qi Zhiyu said with a shrug.

"Survival is my priority! I don't have time to care whether they live or die!"

"Nonsense!" the princess immediately retorted.

"Your martial arts skills are clearly enough to protect yourself without killing them!"

Qi Zhiyu asked curiously, "If I can kill them, why don't you?"

"They're all going to kill me, why should I keep them alive?"

"Am I sick?"

Emperor Kangwu almost burst out laughing.

This girl really doesn't want to suffer any loss.

"Your Majesty, she is truly lawless. How can she kill people from my Princess's residence so easily?" The eldest princess sought Emperor Kangwu's judgment.

In any case, she absolutely cannot lose face!

"And she even hit me!" the princess complained, pointing to her cheek.

"Brother, look!"

"She's insubordinate and has no respect for her elders!"

"Even in an ordinary family, let alone in the royal family, she should be punished!"

The eldest princess's face was indeed the best proof; Emperor Kangwu frowned deeply.

This girl certainly knows how to cause trouble.

It's simply unacceptable for a princess to beat a grand princess.

"Chen'an, did you really hit him?" Emperor Kangwu asked.

The eldest princess stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

What do you mean by asking that, Your Majesty?

Do you not believe her, or does the Emperor want to exonerate Chen'an?

The eldest princess was furious.

Is she ranked after Chen An in her brother's heart?

How could she possibly tolerate this?

Ignoring the embarrassment in her face, the eldest princess declared loudly, "Royal brother, everyone in the room can testify."

"It was Chen'an who hit me back then!"

"Oh? Is that so?" Emperor Kangwu's gaze swept across the crowd. "Who can testify?"

All the noblewomen lowered their heads.

His Majesty is clearly favoring Qi Zhiyu. If they were to come forward and testify now, wouldn't that just cause trouble for their own families?

It is obvious that His Majesty prefers Prince Rui as the crown prince, but His Majesty's favoritism is useless.

Given the current situation, the advantage still lies with the King of Wu.

While everyone was preoccupied with their own agendas, Zheng Mingxuan stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I can testify."

"It was indeed Princess Chen'an who hit the Eldest Princess!"

Princess Rui glared at Zheng Mingxuan through gritted teeth. Back then, the good things she had given away had turned into a thankless ingrate!

"Your Highness, I know that I shouldn't act this way given my status. But the truth is the truth, and I cannot turn a blind eye to it." Zheng Mingxuan looked at Princess Rui with righteous indignation.

"Brother, you heard that!" The eldest princess was now more confident.

"Chen'an hit me, Your Majesty, how do you intend to punish her?"

The eldest princess said bitterly, "Should we give her a white silk noose, or poison?"

"If she were a princess, I wouldn't have let her be beaten to death!"

She's so kind!
