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

"Father, please forgive me, I was unaware," King Wu hurriedly admitted his mistake.

Emperor Kangwu sneered, "Fourth Prince, how old are you? You're still so irrational."

The King of Wu felt aggrieved.

He knew his father looked down on him.

He has already tried his best, so why does Father Emperor insist on favoring the eldest son?

In particular, he treats his eldest son's child so much better than his own child!

He was exempt from kneeling before the emperor and could freely enter and leave the imperial study without being announced.

The King of Wu lowered his eyes, concealing the flames of jealousy within them.

"It was my fault," King Wu said, accepting the lesson.

"Chen'an, what brings you to the palace?" Emperor Kangwu's attitude changed drastically the moment he met Qi Zhiyu.

Her smile was genuine, clearly showing a love that came from the inside out, a love that came from the heart.

Even his voice had lost its authority and gained more kindness.

The person standing in front of Qi Zhiyu was not Emperor Kangwu, but Qi Zhiyu's grandfather.

"I'm disgusted," Qi Zhiyu snorted.

"Zheng Mingxuan is shameless!"

Qi Zhiyu immediately launched into a tirade: "My older brother got injured saving her, and she, on the other hand, is taking my brother's things while pretending to be a deeply devoted victim outside."

"Every single one of them in the Zheng family is a piece of trash!"

"Either they condone or they approve of Zheng Mingxuan's actions!"

"A whole family of scoundrels!"

"Grandfather, the Zheng family feels that Zheng Mingxuan is being wronged by marrying my eldest brother!"

Emperor Kangwu laughed: "No wonder at the banquet, only the eldest princess dared to testify that you offended her."

"Rumors are circulating that she spoke out against powerful figures and stood up for what is right!"

"So, that's how upright she is."

Emperor Kangwu emphasized the word "uprightness," then his tone lightened slightly: "Fourth son, the Zheng family's family tradition... is quite good?"

The King of Wu wished he could slap himself twice!

Don't let yourself be so foul-mouthed!

Why recommend Zheng Hongshan of all people?

"Should someone like him fill the vacancy of Vice Minister of Revenue?" Emperor Kangwu asked with a half-smile.

He didn't blame anyone at all; in fact, he even teased them a bit.

It's like a family sitting together, chatting casually.

The King of Wu, kneeling on the ground, trembled like a leaf.

He slammed his head hard against the ground, and when he lifted it again, there was a glaring bloodstain on the ground.

"Father, perhaps it's his love for his daughter that's causing this," the King of Wu said.

Qi Zhiyu's eyes crinkled with laughter.

Others couldn't see it, but Emperor Kangwu, who was opposite Qi Zhiyu, saw it all clearly.

He sighed softly to himself.

Fourth brother.

That's absolutely foolish!

If this were the boss, he would have readily admitted his mistake first and then tried to make amends.

The fourth brother is still stubbornly refusing to admit the truth... I really don't know how the fourth brother's brain works!

Emperor Kangwu was amused and exasperated: "His love for his daughter... is it that he thinks my grandson is not good enough for her?"

The King of Wu felt a sudden buzzing in his head, and his body swayed.

His reaction was met with nothing but disdain by Emperor Kangwu.

A man who was once the most likely to inherit the throne did not even know what imperial power was.

What a piece of trash!

Emperor Kangwu was also extremely relieved, thankful that his eldest son had now won the battle.

Otherwise, if this country were handed over to the fourth son, he would truly be letting down his ancestors!

"Grandfather, in the eyes of the Zheng family, what is my elder brother? They look down on the entire royal family," Qi Zhiyu sneered.

"Over the years, Zheng Mingxuan pretended not to want my older brother's things, but on the other hand, she used those things to smooth things over for her father."

"Zheng Hongshan has been doing a great job lately, but someone is deliberately giving him credit because of the good things they sent him."

"Taking my brother's things to advance his own career, and then looking down on him... Bah!"

Qi Zhiyu cursed viciously, "A whole family of rotten, rotten-hearted, sore-headed, pus-oozing trash!"

Emperor Kangwu frowned deeply: "Is there any evidence?"

"Yes," Qi Zhiyu said with a smile, "I brought everyone."

"Those people were bribed by Zheng Hongshan to give him credit."

Emperor Kangwu glanced at the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review: "Investigate!"

"Yes." The Minister of the Court of Judicial Review quickly accepted the order.

He really showed his skills today.

They just finished judging the son-in-law, and now they're judging the court officials.

The Minister of the Court of Judicial Review went to conduct the trial, while Emperor Kangwu waited for news.

The King of Wu remained kneeling on the ground, his knees feeling as if they were being pricked by needles.

They could wait as they pleased, but Qi Zhiyu didn't have that kind of free time.

Having just attended the Princess's banquet and dealt with the Zheng family, she was exhausted.

"Grandfather, if there's nothing else, I'll head back now," Qi Zhiyu said.

Emperor Kangwu smiled and said, "But you must be exhausted."

"Here, take this and play with it." Emperor Kangwu took off a jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Qi Zhiyu.

Qi Zhiyu stepped forward and took it.

She raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Grandfather, this jade pendant..."

"Seeing this jade pendant is like seeing me in person," Emperor Kangwu said.

The King of Wu suddenly looked up, staring at him in disbelief.

Several officials in the imperial study secretly gasped.

This level of imperial favor was something even the Prince Rui of yesteryear had never received.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qi Zhiyu happily accepted the gift, curtsied, and left.

How they conduct the trial and handle the matter is their business; she will not participate.

Everything that needed to be done has been done.

Qi Zhiyu returned home, and as soon as she entered, a figure rushed towards her.

Without thinking, she kicked him.

"Hey hey hey..." Fortunately, Qi Jingxi reacted quickly and came to an abrupt stop.

"Sis, it's me, it's me!"

Qi Zhiyu pulled her foot back: "Second brother, what are you doing?"

"I'm so excited!" Qi Jingxi exclaimed, gesturing wildly. "The Zheng family is doomed this time!"

"All the families who accepted their gifts were implicated by them."

"They accepted bribes, and it was all exposed to the public; there was no way to hide it."

"Wouldn't they hate the Zheng family to death?"

"Hahaha..." Qi Jingxi laughed wildly, hands on her hips, "They let the Zheng family eat and take, and then complained. Now they're in trouble, aren't they? Serves them right!"

Qi Zhiyu agreed: "They really deserved it."

"I guess he'll be demoted," Qi Zhiyu said after thinking for a moment. "Become an ordinary citizen?"

The Emperor's grandfather was quite angry; he estimated that Zheng Hongshan would lose his official position.

"Definitely!" Qi Jingxi laughed smugly.

"Mother, Father is fine in the palace," Qi Zhiyu said to Princess Rui. "He'll probably be back very late today."

"It's alright." Princess Rui held her daughter's hand and said worriedly, "You've offended those families this time."

"Be careful, they might trip you up later."

Before Qi Zhiyu could speak, Qi Jingxi blurted out, "Mother, are they going after my sister?"

"Then they'd better think about what will happen to the Eldest Princess and the Zheng family!"
