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

Lord Zhou staggered back two steps, exhausted.

The fear on his face made Zhou Ruobai feel great.

"You think you're working for the King of Wu, trying to please him? You never expected this, did you?"

"You have betrayed the King of Wu."

Zhou Ruobai became increasingly pleased with himself as he spoke: "You've ruined the King of Wu's grand plan... How will the King of Wu treat you?"

"Lord Zhou, your wealth and honor... and even your life, are probably in danger, aren't they?"

Lord Zhou retreated in a panic, his eyes flashing with fear.

Zhou Ruobai approached step by step: "Lord Zhou, what are you afraid of?"

"I am not a monster, but just a puppet that you can manipulate at will."

"A plaything that has been tormented and used by you to please others!"

"Don't come any closer!" Lord Zhou quickly retreated, but his legs were weak, and his feet tripped over each other, causing him to fall heavily to the ground with a thud.

Zhou Ruobai stopped and burst into hearty laughter.

"You've finally gotten what you deserve!"

He knew his fate all along; he would be given away as a gift.

He was just an illegitimate son born to a concubine.

His so-called knowledge was merely a selling point for him as a plaything.

If it weren't to increase his bargaining power, Lord Zhou wouldn't have allowed him to study.

He knew the opportunity was rare, so he studied desperately since he was a child, hoping that one day, even if he was sent away, he could be the one who was favored.

In this way, he could free his mother from the Zhou family.

It could even lead to the destruction and death of the Zhou family!

As long as he destroys the Zhou family and settles his mother's affairs, he will have no regrets in this life.

He went into battle with the Zhou family, but little did he know... there was another path in his life.

"Your master is less than an ant in front of the princess!" Zhou Ruobai was overjoyed and excited when he mentioned Qi Zhiyu.

"Does the light of a firefly dare to rival the brilliance of the moon?"

Lord Zhou's lips were numb, and his words trembled as he spoke: "You...you...you're going to destroy the Zhou family!"

Zhou Ruobai laughed twice: "I couldn't be happier!"

"You, you ungrateful wretch!" Besides cursing, Lord Zhou could do nothing else.

The people in this courtyard were clearly sent by Prince Rui's mansion to protect Zhou Ruobai.

Lord Zhou could only glare fiercely at Zhou Ruobai before hurriedly leaving.

He needs to go back and figure out a solution.

When the King of Wu questioned him, he always had to have a way to respond.

Looking at his disheveled figure, Zhou Ruobai suddenly laughed: "The princess is avenging me."

"If he goes back like this, his wife will definitely be in big trouble."

"The princess knows that my son and I have had a hard time living under Madam Zhou's rule... Madam Zhou gave us my mother's indenture, but she hasn't found out yet. This time, Madam Zhou is going to be in trouble."

Zhou Ruobai sniffed and her eyes reddened.

He could never repay the princess's great kindness, even if he gave his life for her.

From now on, he will do whatever the princess asks him to do.

The servant watched silently, only letting out a soft sigh in his heart.

The young master is also a man with a tragic fate.

As expected, after Lord Zhou returned, he had a big argument with Madam Zhou, which ended with Madam Zhou being slapped and confined to her quarters.

While Lord Zhou and his wife were arguing, the situation between the Third Princess and Qi Yanhe was even more intense.

Qi Yan looked helplessly at the shards scattered all over the ground, feeling utterly exasperated.

They had just put on new ones, and the Third Princess smashed them all.

Can't she be a little more emotionally stable?

He has important business to attend to in Da Rui.

Unfortunately, nothing goes right.

She's going to cause trouble again!

Qi Yan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He had indulged her before and never realized how repulsive she was, but now he really couldn't stand it anymore.

He needed her stupidity to deal with Da Rui, not to torment him!

"Can't you stand it anymore!" The Third Princess was furious when she saw Qi Yanhe's desperate attempt to endure it.

She kicked aside the chair that was in her way and strode over to Qi Yanhe: "So you'll go just because Qi Zhiyu asked you out?"

"Qi Zhiyu is a shameless woman who easily steals men home. Is that what you like?"

Qi Yan opened his eyes helplessly: "It wasn't Princess Chen'an who invited me, but His Majesty."

"Nonsense!" The Third Princess refused to believe her firmly. "Why would Father Emperor invite you there?"

"Because they need to treat my injuries," Qi Yanhe explained.

"No!" the Third Princess said with certainty, "It must be that bitch Chen An who has taken a liking to you."

"Did you fall for her just because she's young?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qi Yanhe was truly going crazy. "She's your niece!"

"So what if she's my niece?" The Third Princess didn't see anything wrong with it at all. "There are plenty of people who marry their sisters or nieces."

"Alright, Jin Yi, stop making a scene. I've been tricked, you know that?" Qi Yanhe didn't want to argue with her about that.

Is his relationship with Qi Zhiyu something important?

The current trouble is that the King of Wu has been deprived of power.

The King of Wu asked him to help him seize the throne. If the King of Wu ascended the throne, it would be entirely beneficial to their Qi Kingdom.

But things are not developing as they are now.

The situation was very unfavorable for them.

"You were outmaneuvered?" The third princess was taken aback, then became even angrier. "It's because my father was there that you didn't succeed..."

"Jinyi!" Qi Yanhe really couldn't take it anymore. "We came back this time because the King of Wu asked you for help."

"Can't you see that the King of Wu has been tricked?"

"I have also become an accomplice in plotting against the King of Wu."

"What will the King of Wu think of me?"

"Before you got married, wasn't your relationship with the King of Wu the best?"

The third princess clearly hadn't considered this question: "Huh?"

Qi Yan tried his best to ignore the Third Princess's stunned reaction: "Zhou Ruobai clearly got a benefit from Princess Chen'an."

"He deliberately acted unwilling, hoping his father would save him."

"If his father had that ability, how could Zhou Ruobai have been snatched away by Princess Chen'an?"

"This is something Princess Chen'an knows; Lord Zhou can only seek help from the Prince of Wu."

"King Wu originally meant well in saving people, but in the end it turned out to be a trap set for him."

"Now that His Majesty has stripped the King of Wu of his power, don't you understand?"

The Third Princess was completely led by the nose by Qi Yanhe. After listening, she asked blankly, "That was Father Emperor's decision. What could I do?"

"It's obvious that Prince Rui has already sided with Prince Wu. If Prince Rui eventually ascends the throne, no matter what happens to Prince Wu, what will happen to your mother?" Qi Yanhe asked.

"It is possible that the Dowager Consort was forced to commit suicide."

The third princess's eyes widened: "They dare!"

"If Prince Rui becomes the new emperor, they will dare to do it," Qi Yanhe deliberately provoked the Third Princess.

"No, we must help King Wu!" The Third Princess grabbed Qi Yanhe's sleeve and said through gritted teeth.

"Okay, whatever you say." Qi Yanhe hid his scheming behind his doting smile.
