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

Grand Secretary Zhang glanced at Qi Yanhe and sighed inwardly.

When the King of Wu invited Qi Yanhe over, he did not explain in detail about Princess Chen'an's habits.

Qi Yan and Princess Chen'an had a falling out?

What was he thinking?

Even if the King of Wu didn't explain it clearly to him, didn't Qi Yanhe see through the exchange just now?

Grand Secretary Zhang secretly reassessed Qi Yanhe's strength.

"I thought that matter was over." Since someone had launched an attack, Qi Zhiyu naturally had to fight back.

"If you offer me something as an apology, I'm willing to let this matter drop."

"However, since you insist on explaining yourself here, let's have a proper talk."

"Please speak, Princess," Qi Yanhe said in a deep voice. "I know that the Third Princess is too naive and somewhat outspoken."

"However, Princess, you can say these things in private."

"Why belittle the Third Princess in front of so many people?"

"The princess made the third princess lose face in front of so many officials and their families, and then she came to the palace to complain."

"Princess, if this isn't bullying, then what is?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhiyu burst into laughter, leaving Qi Yanhe completely bewildered.

The Third Princess felt a mix of emotions, thinking that Qi Yanhe might have deceived her.

But now she sees Qi Yan standing up for her.

She felt that her choice just now was not wrong.

She didn't tell her father that Qi Yanhe had expressed to her that the concessions her father made back then were not because of his love for her, but for the benefit of Da Rui.

Sure enough, he loved her deeply.

"Third Princess, do you think Qi Yanhe loves you very much?" Qi Zhiyu asked the Third Princess.

The third princess answered without hesitation, "Of course!"

"But he wants to destroy you!" Qi Zhiyu's face darkened.

"Jiang Shuyi publicly humiliated and slandered me. Yet you did nothing to stop her, failing to uphold the dignity of the royal family."

"If I were to back down even slightly, just imagine what the world would say about you if word got out."

"As a princess of the Great Rui, not knowing how to uphold the royal family is disloyal."

"You know perfectly well how much my grandfather loves me, yet you don't consider his feelings, you don't extend that love to everything connected to him. You hurt your father's feelings, which is unfilial."

"You are also a woman, yet you do nothing to uphold women's reputation and dignity; this is inhumane."

"You are not only the Princess of Da Rui, but also the Queen Consort of Qi. Our two countries are on good terms, yet you fail to uphold the dignity of both nations; this is unjust!"

"What's wrong with me publicly rebuking someone as disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust as you are?"

The third princess was completely bewildered.

How could she be disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust?

Isn't she just disgusted by Qi Zhiyu and wants to put her down?

Grand Secretary Zhang stroked his beard. "Hmm, that's a familiar scent."

As expected of Princess Chen'an.

"As for why I came to complain to my grandfather..." Qi Zhiyu sneered, "Didn't you notice that the ministers who came this time were all female relatives who went to pray and offer incense with you?"

"Fortunately, the temple was cleared out today, and there were no outsiders."

"However, this matter must be made known to our Imperial Grandfather."

"My grandfather also summoned them and gave them a good scolding, telling them not to spread the word."

"After all, if word gets out, people will only talk about why the Third Princess is so morally corrupt, not only failing to uphold the dignity of the Great Rui royal family, but also disregarding the dignity of both countries."

"Third Princess, you must know that your words and actions represent not only the Great Rui Kingdom, but also the Qi Kingdom."

"The Queen Consort of Qi is such a person, easily swayed by rumors and lacking even basic judgment. What are the people of Qi supposed to think of her?"

The third princess was completely stunned. Was it really that serious?

"Qi Yanhe," Qi Zhiyu looked at Qi Yanhe, "It's fine if you spoil the Third Princess, but what are you trying to do by making her lose even her basic judgment?"

"You wouldn't deliberately spoil the Third Princess so much that she becomes unruly, and then clean up the mess when she makes a mistake."

"As a result, the Third Princess becomes increasingly dependent on you; you are the only person in her world."

"Qi Yanhe, do you know what your behavior resembles?"

"Like what?" the third princess asked instinctively.

"No..." Qi Yanhe wanted to interrupt, knowing that Qi Zhiyu would definitely not have anything nice to say next.

"Training a dog!" Qi Zhiyu chuckled. "A mad dog with no independent will, only knowing how to obey, biting wherever its owner tells it to."

"Princess Chen'an!" Qi Yanhe shouted, "Please don't make assumptions!"

The Third Princess stared blankly at the enraged Qi Yanhe.

Over the years, he had never seen Qi Yan lose his temper.

No, it should be that I've never seen him lose his temper with her.

He had lost his temper, but it was always directed at those who had offended her.

If she suffered any injustice in the Qi Kingdom, he would stand up for her.

It seems that everything is exactly as Qi Zhiyu said.

"Princess Chen'an, what exactly do you want?" Qi Yanhe's face turned ashen with anger. "Are you trying to sow discord between us as husband and wife?"

What evidence do you have for what you're saying?

"You're just making baseless accusations against me based on your own guesses?"

In contrast to Qi Yanhe's fury, Qi Zhiyu smiled calmly and said, "You're very angry?"

"Who wouldn't be angry in this situation?" Qi Yanhe gritted his teeth.

Qi Zhiyu was just asking a question she already knew the answer to!

"Third Princess, now you understand why I was so angry back then, right?" Qi Zhiyu asked the Third Princess, "What evidence did Jiang Shuyi have for what she said?"

Qi Yan choked.

The Third Princess stared blankly at Qi Zhiyu, her mind completely muddled and unable to process what was happening.

"Qi Yanhe, I originally intended to let this matter slide out of consideration for the Third Princess," Qi Zhiyu said with a cold smile, then turned to look at Emperor Kangwu.

"Grandfather, the King of Qi owes our Great Rui an explanation for this matter!"

"Why did our princess turn out like this after arriving in the Qi Kingdom?"

"Is it that Qi Yanhe is acting recklessly, or is it that their Qi Kingdom is deliberately training dogs, trying to humiliate my Great Rui by insulting my princess!"

Emperor Kangwu nodded slowly, his gaze falling on Qi Yanhe's face: "I will ask the King of Qi about this matter."

Qi Yan felt as if all the blood had been drained from his body, leaving him feeling cold all over and numb in his hands and feet.

Can anyone tell him how things developed into Emperor Kangwu wanting to hold the ruler of Qi accountable?

And... things are progressing so smoothly.

Qi Yan's mind was buzzing; he couldn't figure it out.

The King of Wu took a deep breath; he had watched as it all unfolded before his very eyes.

But he was powerless to stop it.

There was no way to stop it.

Even now, he still can't figure out why Qi Zhiyu always retaliates so fiercely.

How exactly did this matter escalate from a quarrel between a few women to a dialogue between the rulers of two countries?

Moreover, his father was the one in a superior position who was the one holding the blame.
