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

She had never encountered such an opponent.

The people in this world are really interesting; they're completely different from the people in her previous world.

Moreover, why is Heaven so biased towards King Wu and his people?

Will they bring about their own destruction?

Qi Zhiyu couldn't figure it out, so she stopped thinking about it.

Anyway, she won't suffer any losses.

Qi Zhiyu didn't take the matter of the opera house to heart at all, but some people were extremely excited.

"Imperial Aunt, let's go tell Grandfather!" Qi Rongyao said excitedly.

The third princess asked excitedly, "Really?"

"Really." Qi Rongyao nodded affirmatively. "I personally witnessed those people being taken away by Qi Zhiyu's men."

"The people in the opera troupe said it themselves; Chen'an praised their lead actor for being handsome!"

The Third Princess gritted her teeth angrily: "That shameless slut, Chen An!"

"Imperial Aunt, let's go to the palace now." Qi Rongyao couldn't wait to go to her grandfather's side to complain.

Qi Zhiyu caused her father to lose power, so she wants to ruin Qi Zhiyu's reputation.

The Third Princess shook her head: "It's not that simple."

"Father allows her to keep men. Even if she takes a bunch of men with her, Father won't blame her."

Qi Rongyao was furious: "So we're just going to let Qi Zhiyu run rampant like this?"

The third princess suddenly laughed: "That's not necessarily true."

"We can make this a big deal."

"Father allowed Chen'an to keep men, but he didn't allow her to forcibly take them away."

"By then, when all the people know, and the masses plead for justice, even Father Emperor cannot suppress it. He must give the people an explanation."

"Your Majesty is truly wise!" Qi Rongyao complimented.

The third princess laughed triumphantly.

The next day, people in the capital discovered that the theaters, which were always packed, had suddenly changed their actors.

The opera troupe was still the same, but all the best performers were gone.

They came to support the stars, but if the stars are gone, what are they still watching for?

The capital city has no shortage of powerful and influential people.

They came to see the star was gone; how could they be happy about that?

The troupe leader was someone they couldn't afford to offend, so they could only apologize repeatedly.

"Stop talking nonsense! We came to see the star, where is he?"

The troupe leader's face turned red, but all he could do was keep apologizing and couldn't get any more useful information.

Someone simply raised their leg and kicked the kneeling troupe leader.

The troupe leader was kicked hard to the ground, wincing in pain but daring not to cry out.

"What? Are you looking down on us? Or are we unworthy to listen to your opera singers?"

"What an arrogant attitude!"

"No, no, esteemed guests, those few people are really not available lately!" The troupe leader, ignoring the pain, hurriedly knelt down again and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Stop talking nonsense! If you don't let them go on stage today, your opera troupe might as well quit!"

The troupe leader trembled with fear: "Honorable guests, we...we're counting on this troupe to survive!"

"Without a result, you can forget about living!" Those people didn't listen to the troupe leader.

One of the boys couldn't help but shout, "Princess Chen'an took her away! If you're so capable, go find the princess!"

His shout silenced all those who wanted to smash the opera troupe.

The group of people looked at each other in bewilderment.

The actor they wanted to see was the one Princess Chen'an took away?

Then, that's all right.

"Really, why didn't you say so earlier?"

"It's their good fortune that the princess has taken a liking to them!"

"That's great. Now that they've left the opera troupe, they're enjoying a life of luxury with the princess."

Those who caused trouble left sheepishly.

However, the news that Princess Chen'an had snatched the lead role from the opera troupe spread quickly.

Not long ago, Qi Zhiyu snatched Zhou Ruobai away, and now she's the lead actress in the opera troupe.

What does the Prince of Chen'an want to do?

In particular, given that Prince Rui has now taken over the affairs previously handled by Prince Wu, has Princess Chen'an become arrogant?

Does she think her father is now in power and has started to act lawlessly?

This rumor spread quickly in the capital, and it wasn't without the people's rebuttals.

Princess Rui has always been doing good deeds and helping the poor.

Prince Rui's Mansion never oppressed the people.

Princess Chen'an is their daughter, how could she be that kind of person?

Some people refuted this, while others provided answers.

Previously, the Prince Rui's mansion was just putting on airs, but now that they have gained power, they are showing their true colors.

Otherwise, why would Princess Chen'an act so recklessly?

The rumors intensified, and at first, some people refuted them and defended the Prince Rui's Mansion.

After more than ten days, no one spoke up for the Prince Rui's Mansion anymore; all voices were condemning it.

Of course, no matter how indignant the people were, they dared not speak out openly; they discussed it secretly in private.

Even so, all those noble and powerful families knew about it.

They secretly observed His Majesty's reaction during court sessions.

His Majesty acted as if he knew nothing about it.

Or perhaps His Majesty knows, but chooses not to care.

Given His Majesty's favor towards Princess Chen'an, they felt they had guessed the truth.

Not only did Emperor Kangwu seem oblivious to the rumors, but Prince Rui also continued doing his usual things without being affected at all.

If His Majesty doesn't leave the palace, it's fine to pretend he doesn't know anything.

Prince Rui returns to his residence every day; has he really not heard a single word about it?

This is not normal!

The matters discussed in the court had been largely concluded when the officials suddenly heard footsteps approaching from outside.

Everyone was startled. Who was this?

He entered the imperial court without prior notice?

It's just... uh?

It seems that only that one person in their Great Rui has such a privilege.

The ministers secretly glanced out of the corner of their eyes, and sure enough, Qi Zhiyu walked in with a smile: "Grandfather."

Upon seeing her, Emperor Kangwu's serious expression was instantly replaced by a doting smile: "Chen'an has arrived."

"It seems there have been some results."

"Yes," Qi Zhiyu said with a smile.

Just as she walked to the front, the eunuch moved the chair over and placed it in place.

Qi Zhiyu sat down naturally, and everything was just right.

"Since everyone is here, let's take a look together," Qi Zhiyu said.

"Very well." Emperor Kangwu nodded with a smile. "Let them in."

The officials were baffled. What kind of riddle were His Majesty and Princess Chen'an playing?

Grand Secretary Zhang glanced at Prince Rui, but could not discern the slightest hint of anything amiss on the prince's calm face.

However, he felt that this matter must be related to the recent rumors in the capital.

I just don't know how Princess Chen'an will clear up those rumors.

After all, no matter what, Princess Chen'an did take the person away.

This matter has blown up so much; the people need an explanation.

Would the King of Wu allow this matter to be resolved so easily?

Grand Secretary Zhang glanced at Lord Zhou, whose eyes were gleaming with anticipation. He had a feeling that the trap set by the Prince of Wu was more than just the rumors circulating outside.

It remains to be seen how Princess Chen'an will break this deadlock.
