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

Qi Zhiyu looked at Emperor Kangwu with her big, watery eyes, so innocent and open. Her gaze was so clear that Emperor Kangwu coughed unconsciously again.

"Grandfather was confused just now. How could you let Chen'an do such a tiring task?" Emperor Kangwu said sincerely.

"A delicate girl like Chen An should be well cared for and served."

Emperor Kangwu's words made Qi Zhiyu's eyes crinkle with laughter: "Grandfather is the best."

Emperor Kangwu: "..."

How could he dare to be bad?

He's worried; he's afraid this girl will throw a tantrum.

If this girl loses control, the consequences...

He wanted to expand his territory and unify the world, but... he didn't want the territory he acquired to be a dead land devoid of any living beings.

Qi Zhiyu got up, put on her jewelry, and happily went home.

Qi Zhiyu had barely left, less than a quarter of an hour later, when Prince Rui arrived.

"Father, Father... My daughter has been bullied? The Fourth Prince's family has gone too far!" Prince Rui shouted as he entered the Imperial Study.

Then, Emperor Kangwu slapped him across the face.

Prince Rui nimbly dodged the attack, then looked at Emperor Kangwu with a pitiful expression: "Father, my daughter was bullied, why did you hit me?"

Emperor Kangwu was so angry he laughed: "Who dares to bully Chen'an?"

"They can't bully her, that's because they're incompetent. But they've been plotting to bully my daughter!" Prince Rui said with absolute confidence.

These are clearly two different things; how can they be confused?

Emperor Kangwu took a deep breath.

son!

My own!

My own flesh and blood!

It was someone I carefully nurtured myself.

He couldn't bear it... he couldn't bear it even a little bit.

"You scoundrel, stop pretending to be ignorant in front of me!" Emperor Kangwu threw the memorial in his hand away.

One book wasn't enough, so they had to do several in a row.

Prince Rui nimbly and steadily caught them all, saying, "Hey, hey, hey... Father, no matter how angry you are, you can't take it out on these memorials."

"If you're angry, go beat up Lao Si and his gang, that would be great!"

"The memorials didn't do anything to you; they're completely innocent."

"They are innocent. You come here to me." Emperor Kangwu pointed at Prince Rui.

Prince Rui held the memorial in his hand, standing at a distance that would keep his father out of reach. He forced a smile and said, "Father, I've grown up. We're close at heart, so we don't need to be so close."

Emperor Kangwu chuckled coldly twice, then his face darkened: "Get over here now."

Prince Rui's expression shifted several times before he finally shuffled over with a helpless shrug, saying, "Ouch!"

Prince Rui clutched his head where he had been hit, feeling utterly wronged; his father had gone too far.

It means that he is filial; otherwise, how could such a thing happen if he went over and got beaten?

After being slapped, Emperor Kangwu's anger finally subsided somewhat. He glared at him and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"But we have to put on a show, right?" Prince Rui spoke frankly; he had nothing to hide from his father.

"My daughter was wronged, and as her father, I was extremely anxious. I rushed from outside to the palace to stand up for her."

"Unexpectedly, we were still a step too late; everything was already taken care of."

"I have to rush home now to comfort my daughter."

Emperor Kangwu was so angry his nose almost crooked: "My lord, have you completely lost all shame now?"

"They didn't even bother to act?"

Prince Rui waved his hand dismissively: "Acting is for outsiders. Why would I need to act when it's just the two of us?"

"Dad, it's nothing, I'm going home to see my daughter."

"Get out of here," Emperor Kangwu said impatiently.

They're all such a worry for him.

Emperor Kangwu watched Prince Rui run away in a flash and sighed inwardly. They were all his children. Although his other sons were not as capable as their eldest son, they were not bad either.

The fourth prince was also quite capable. When he was the crown prince, even if he wasn't as amazing as the eldest prince in handling affairs, he was at least quite competent.

Since being deposed as crown prince, he has made one blunder after another, and...

Emperor Kangwu's eyes darkened. How many talented and extraordinary people had gathered around his fourth son?

If the fourth prince hadn't been deposed as crown prince, none of these people would have revealed themselves.

Now that the fourth brother is showing signs of decline, those who were previously inconspicuous are all starting to exert their strength.

We will not give up until we achieve our goal.

Putting aside the fourth brother's current abilities, just look at the scheming and treacherous people around him... If the fourth brother were to take this position, what would Da Rui become?

Emperor Kangwu truly dared not imagine it.

Thank goodness, thank goodness he has his granddaughter!

Emperor Kangwu clenched his fist with one hand and then opened it again. After repeating this several times, his anxiety was somewhat relieved.

He was truly terrified whenever he thought about it.

He knew that this was a force he couldn't control, and that he or his boss alone couldn't fight against it.

Thank goodness!

Prince Rui, looking anxious, got into the carriage and headed home.

Of course, once he got into the carriage, the anxious and worried look on his face disappeared, and he began to think.

What is Yu'er playing with this time?

I didn't even tell them about this beforehand.

When Prince Rui returned home, he talked to Qi Zhiyu and learned about the situation. He even asked her about some details.

Qi Zhiyu naturally told her father everything.

The father and daughter also discussed what happened next.

While they were discussing something, Fu Xinyu was slapped to the ground by her father.

"You've completely disgraced me!" Lord Fu roared.

Fu Xinyu covered her face, feeling extremely aggrieved: "Father, it was Princess Wu who made me do this."

"Can I refuse?"

Lord Fu choked.

Fu Xinyu's anger flared up as she demanded, "Can our Fu family stand against the Wu Prince's Mansion?"

Her words struck a nerve with Lord Fu, who immediately became enraged and kicked Fu Xinyu again.

Fu Xinyu was kicked and fell to the ground clutching her stomach, not moving for a long time.

Her forehead was covered in cold sweat, her face was deathly pale, her body was trembling slightly, and even her breathing was intermittent, as if each breath was causing her excruciating pain.

Lord Fu didn't care about that. He cursed, "I've raised you for so many years and hired so many teachers, and you haven't learned a single skill."

Even if you can't refuse Princess Wu, can't you think of a way to protect yourself?

"Now look what's happened! We've got palace maids teaching you manners. You're really something! You've really brought honor to the Fu family!"

After finishing his tirade, Lord Fu ordered, "Take the young lady back to her courtyard."

The maids outside, who were trembling with fear, immediately came in upon hearing the summons and hurriedly helped Fu Xinyu up from the ground.

As soon as they moved, Fu Xinyu cried out in pain, which frightened the maid so much that she dared not move.

Lord Fu snapped, "Can't you understand me?"

The maid was startled and, without caring whether she would hurt Fu Xinyu, helped her up and hurriedly left.
