It was precisely because I understood that I realized the Third Princess's face was truly unbearable to look at.

Father Emperor, you actually value Qi Zhiyu so much?

"Chen'an, be good, don't go to other countries for no reason. If something happens to you, how will your grandfather live?" Emperor Kangwu earnestly advised.

"What treasures do you want? Grandfather will have someone find them for you."

"Be good."

"Mmm." Qi Zhiyu nodded obediently. "Grandfather, I'm being a good girl."

Emperor Kangwu smiled indulgently: "Chen'an is the best."

Everyone: "..."

Your Majesty, would you like to hear what you have to say?

Do you believe it yourself?

Grand Secretary Zhang: "..."

He seems to have grasped what it means for each generation to surpass the last.

The shamelessness of Prince Rui and Princess Chen'an stems from His Majesty.

However, Prince Rui and Princess Chen'an have made further progress.

The third princess was so angry that she trembled all over.

She was at a loss for words.

A thousand words welled up in her heart, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't utter a single word.

It turns out that after extreme disappointment, there is nothing left to say.

Father... has disappointed her greatly!

"Alright then. Ten thousand taels it is." Qi Zhiyu relented. "If it weren't for my grandfather's concern, I would have definitely gone to Prince Qi's private treasury to check if it was true."

"If the princess doesn't believe me, she can come anytime. The gates of my palace are always open to the princess," Qi Yanhe said with a smile.

He knew it wouldn't be so easy to abduct Qi Zhiyu.

If things don't work out on his end, then we'll have to rely on the King of Wu.

That was the end of that.

However, while Qi Yanhe, the main character of the farewell banquet, was fine and everything was as usual, the Third Princess had lost all interest.

After the banquet, Qi Zhiyu happily went home.

I've earned another ten thousand taels of silver, perfect!

Emperor Kangwu sighed, "Chen'an's ability to make money... is truly enviable."

Prince Rui chuckled smugly, "My daughter is just that amazing! I'm so lucky!"

Emperor Kangwu sighed: "Indeed, you are blessed."

"I am not fortunate enough to have children."

Prince Rui: "..."

Why did things turn sarcastic as we talked?

"Father, what's the matter?" Prince Rui asked.

The banquet is over, why not let him go home?

"Has anything happened recently?" Emperor Kangwu asked.

Prince Rui chuckled softly, "Father, don't worry about it. We'll handle this little matter."

Emperor Kangwu looked at Prince Rui and stared intently into his eyes: "What I just said was not an act."

He really couldn't bear it if something really happened to Chen An.

"If something happens to you, nothing can happen to Chen'an." Emperor Kangwu's words made Prince Rui's eyes slightly open.

Has his daughter surpassed him in his father's heart?

"I'm heartbroken that I'll be outdone one day," Prince Rui joked.

Emperor Kangwu slapped Prince Rui on the back of the head.

Prince Rui suddenly covered his head, feeling a strange sense of familiarity.

"What are you comparing yourself to Chen'an for? That girl has suffered too much," Emperor Kangwu scolded.

Prince Rui lowered his eyes and smiled faintly: "Father."

Prince Rui did not say the rest.

it is more than words.

At Prince Rui's residence, Qi Jingxi laughed heartily, slapping the table: "Their faces were as black as the bottom of a pot! It was hilarious!"

"Wow, you're amazing!" Qi Jingxi gave Qi Zhiyu a thumbs up.

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, we just got carried away with the conversation."

"I never expected that the first person to make trouble would be the Princess Consort of Wu."

She thought it was the third princess.

This is an attempt to lure her away.

However, she felt that the tribulation she was destined to face was not in the Qi Kingdom, but still in the Da Rui Kingdom.

She wasn't very good at deduction; at most, she could guess based on cause and effect and luck.

However, she did see it through this banquet.

They wanted her to leave the capital.

"Yu'er, what are your plans? Are you going to leave the capital?" Princess Rui asked.

Qi Zhiyu smiled, and her mother noticed it too.

"Since they want to, I will naturally leave. How will I know what tricks they're up to if I don't go?" Qi Zhiyu said indifferently.

"But for me to leave, they'll have to lay out enough bait!"

"I'm not a child who can be easily fooled with a few words."

"Yes, let's squeeze them for a hefty sum!" Qi Jingxi excitedly chimed in.

Qi Zhiyu nodded, "That's right, that's exactly it."

Qi Jingchen listened from the side and suddenly felt that King Wu and the others were quite pitiful.

Just like chives, you have to harvest one crop after another.

Qi Zhiyu and the others exchanged a few words and then left to return to their own courtyards.

On the way, Qi Zhiyu happened to run into Prince Rui, who was returning shortly after: "Father."

"Yu'er," Prince Rui said with a smile, "your grandfather is not just putting on an act for you."

Everything Yu'er did was for Da Rui's benefit.

He also wanted Yu'er to know that her father truly cared for her.

Qi Zhiyu chuckled softly: "I can tell whether it's genuine or feigned."

Prince Rui laughed and said, "In your grandfather's heart, you hold a higher position than I do."

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly and said, "Father, you are the number one in Grandfather's heart."

"Because I am my father's daughter, my father loves me, and that's why my grandfather loves me too."

"This is a case of loving the house because of its owner."

Prince Rui was slightly taken aback, then laughed and scolded, "You silly girl."

"Location and such are not important. As long as it's worthwhile, that's all that matters." Qi Zhiyu never dwells on these things.

She didn't care whether something was the most important thing or not.

She's kind to others as long as they're worthy of it.

If that person betrays her, no matter the reason, she will not hesitate to take action.

Just as if she had just arrived in this world, if there were any problems with her family in this world, she would leave without hesitation.

She never wastes time on people who aren't worth it.

Prince Rui reached out and pressed his hand down on Qi Zhiyu's head, then ruffled it: "So young, yet so mature."

"How unlovable!"

"We're here for you, little girl. Go ahead and have fun, don't be so serious."

Qi Zhiyu looked at Prince Rui: "Father, this hair was styled by the maid at Mother's instruction."

Prince Rui's arm stiffened.

Qi Zhiyu smiled and said, "My mother said I look good with this hairstyle."

"Things are in chaos now..."

Prince Rui: "Yu'er, please don't tell your mother, okay? Your father didn't mean it."

"It's too late!" Qi Zhiyu said, then turned and ran towards Princess Rui's courtyard.

"Yu'er... my daughter... I really didn't mean it!" Prince Rui wailed as he chased after her.

The Prince Rui's Mansion was unusually lively.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere on the King of Wu's side was deathly still.

"You need to produce something tangible, otherwise Qi Zhiyu won't fall for it," King Wu said.

Princess Wu gritted her teeth.

"Think of your son!" King Wu directly grasped the Queen Wu's weak spot.

Princess Wu took a deep breath and agreed, "Okay!"

Only when Qi Zhiyu dies can the King of Wu turn the tide and his son inherit the throne!
