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

"There's really no conflict," Qi Zhiyu said with a light laugh.

Qi Zhiyu lightly patted Prince Rui's shoulder: "Father, next time you act with me, think about the consequences..."

Prince Rui nodded pitifully, "Oh."

His daughter is so amazing, he doesn't feel any sense of accomplishment.

My two silly boys at home are much funnier.

The father and daughter chatted and laughed as they went home.

On the other hand, the King of Wu was filled with gloom and despair.

He felt particularly distressed, especially when he was sitting in the carriage and heard the people discussing the Siyun tribe.

Everyone is saying that Qi Zhiyu is amazing.

Everyone was praising Prince Rui for his ability to raise children.

King Wu really wanted to push open the carriage window and shout outside, "Qi Zhiyu has just been found, what a load of crap is Prince Rui keeping?"

Qi Zhiyu is amazing, but what's her connection to Prince Rui?

He might have had these thoughts in his mind, but he tried his best to restrain himself.

Acting impulsively at this moment will only put you in a passive position.

Originally, that shameless Prince Rui had been keeping an eye on him, trying to set him up.

If he continues to act irrationally, wouldn't that be tantamount to handing over a handle to Prince Rui?

He would never do something so stupid.

King Wu took a deep breath to calm himself down.

However, the people of the Siyun tribe had just been beheaded in public, and the crowd of onlookers, not to mention the hordes of people who had gathered to watch the spectacle, were not in a hurry to leave.

They got so excited that they stopped and gathered around, gesturing wildly as they talked.

Suddenly, the road was blocked.

However, no one urged them to do so.

Everyone was very happy and discussing the great achievements of the Siyun tribe and Princess Chen'an.

As a result, the King of Wu's carriage was forced to stop.

At this point, could he ask someone to urge him to hurry on his way?

What's wrong?

He was unhappy that the Siyun tribe had been wiped out.

The King of Wu was furious.

At the same time, he also figured something out.

Prince Rui and Qi Zhiyu did it on purpose.

Qi Zhiyu had already discovered that Gu worm.

That's why it was him who took effect when the Great Shaman activated the Gu worms.

Qi Zhiyu somehow managed to get the Gu worms onto his body.

While proving that the Siyun tribe's claim that she was a spy was false, she also framed the Duke of Wei.

This time, he wanted to use the Siyun tribe's great shaman to trick Prince Rui, but Qi Zhiyu and Prince Rui had anticipated this long ago.

After this incident, the Emperor will surely summon them to the palace.

Once the matter is explained, he will inevitably be blocked on the road by the people when he leaves the palace to return home.

The public's high spirits and discussions about blocking the road were entirely expected.

Prince Rui and Qi Zhiyu wanted him to hear the people's praise and admiration for Prince Rui's mansion.

This is using the words of ordinary people to stab him in the heart, one knife at a time!

Qi Zhiyu, Prince Rui... how ruthless!

When King Wu finally returned home, his face was so dark it was almost unbearable to look at.

He was no pushover either, and had always been bullied by Prince Rui.

Wasn't Qi Jingxi supposed to be on duty at the Ministry of Personnel?

If he can't handle Qi Zhiyu and Prince Rui, surely he can handle that纨绔 (playboy) Qi Jingxi?

The King of Wu had his own plans, and everything else was proceeding in an orderly manner.

With the Siyun tribe destroyed, the palace naturally held a banquet to celebrate.

The court officials, along with their families, arrived early.

Everyone in the palace was extremely cautious.

Even the young children were kept close by their mothers, not allowed to run around.

After Qi Zhiyu's family arrived, she and her mother went to the women's side.

It must be said that the arrival of Prince Rui and his family changed the atmosphere of the banquet.

The crowd, who had been whispering just moments before, fell silent, their eyes following the Rui family.

The Prince Rui family remained completely unaffected by these stares and took their seats.

Everyone else had tea on their tables, but Qi Zhiyu's table was completely empty.

The palace maid beside her immediately bowed and said, "Princess, please wait a moment. The snacks and sweet soup prepared by the Imperial Kitchen will be served shortly."

"Okay." Qi Zhiyu nodded in satisfaction. "Two portions. My mother is here too."

The palace maid responded and hurried to the imperial kitchen to check on the situation.

His Majesty dotes on his granddaughter, so it's only natural that she would miss her mother.

Anyway, His Majesty has given the order that they should do whatever Princess Chen'an instructs them to do.

Soon, two servings of dessert soup were served.

Those various snacks and dishes looked so tempting.

When the people in the hall looked at the tea, water, and fruit in front of them, they immediately understood what differential treatment meant.

That's such a huge difference!

"Your Majesty, why didn't Chen'an have the imperial kitchen serve you a portion?"

Qi Jingxi was drinking tea when she heard someone ask her a question.

He turned his head and glanced at Qi Jinghong, the son of the King of Wu and the elder brother of Qi Rongyao.

He laughed: "I'm not a young lady, why would I eat desserts or sweet soup?"

"What? You want some?"

"If you want some, ask your grandfather."

"Your grandfather won't scold you just because you're greedy."

Qi Jinghong's eyes darkened. Was that what he meant?

"I heard that you and Chen'an have a good relationship, Your Majesty. I thought she would take better care of you." Qi Jinghong laughed carelessly, as if he were just saying it casually.

"My sister always thinks of me when she gets something good."

Qi Jingxi had only casually responded to Qi Jinghong, but upon hearing his words, she immediately turned around and faced him.

Are all the people in the Wu royal family idle and have nothing better to do?

To sow discord between them, siblings?

What was Qi Jinghong thinking?

Qi Jingxi reached out and pointed to the ribbon binding her hair: "See that?"

Qi Jinghong asked, puzzled, "What?"

"Do you have these pearls?" Qi Jingxi asked, raising an eyebrow.

Qi Jinghong's face darkened.

The pearls on Qi Jingxi's hairband were of excellent quality and were clearly rare treasures.

Such a pearl is something that even his father, let alone him, didn't have.

"No answer means no." Qi Jingxi chuckled.

Qi Jinghong asked curiously, "Was this a gift from the Emperor's grandfather to the Emperor's uncle?"

"Brother, not to be rude, but it's perfectly fine for a man to wear these pearls. However, Chen'an hasn't... Brother, aren't you worried that Chen'an will feel that Uncle is being unfair and favoring you?"

"After all, Chen'an has suffered so much for so many years. You should give him the best things in your household."

Qi Jingxi smiled smugly: "We'll talk about it next time when we know the truth. Your chaotic guesses will only make people laugh."

"This pearl was a gift from my grandfather to my sister, and then my sister gave it to me."

Qi Jinghong almost couldn't keep his composure.

It was one thing for the Emperor's grandfather to favor Prince Rui.

Why would the Emperor bestow a pearl, which even his father didn't possess, upon Qi Zhiyu, a village girl from the countryside?

"My sister, she wanted to give me the whole box." Qi Jingxi continued to show off.

Qi Jinghong's face turned green.

A box?

Grandfather is so generous!

"However, you're right. Men don't need that many, so I only took a few," Qi Jingxi said with a pleased expression.

"By the way, you're so proud, what good stuff did your sister give you? Tell me, so I can be envious too," Qi Jingxi inquired.

"Is it something even better than the gift from my grandfather?"

Qi Jinghong: "..."
