After teaching his daughter a lesson, Long Zeyu turned to Feng Cang and Murong Qiqi with a smile, "Southern Lin Duke, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding …"
"Misunderstanding?" Murong Qiqi cried even harder, "It must be because I'm not a real princess and don't have a noble status, that's why they humiliated me like this. Your Highness, as the saying goes, don't hit me in the face. Everyone in the world knows that I'm Princess Nan Lin. They are obviously looking down on you and the Northern Zhou Nation! "
Long Zeyu did not know whether he should bear it or not, but he did not dare to take it off. Long Zeyu hated Murong Qiqi to the core. If he knew that she was so difficult to deal with, he would have found a random woman to pretend to be a princess. That way, he wouldn't have to deal with all these troubles.
"It's a small matter that I was framed, but Your Highness is an indomitable man, the Southern Lin Duke. How can Your Highness tolerate such grievances!? As the saying goes, if you don't look at the monk, look at the Buddha. How are they bullying me? They're completely bullying Your Highness! "
If crying, throwing a tantrum, and trying to hang oneself was a woman's killer move, then Murong Qiqi's first move was enough to make Long Zeyu want to cry. Many hats were stacked on top of each other, firmly fastening onto Long Zeyu's head, causing his head to grow bigger and bigger, and his heart to become more and more perturbed.
Looking at Murong Qiqi's red nose, Feng Cang couldn't bear it anymore. He pulled Murong Qiqi into his arms and turned to leave. "Qingqing, let's go! I'll write a letter to Uncle His Majesty immediately. Let's see if he will help my niece-in-law! "
This time, Long Zeyu even had the thought of dying.
Who didn't know that the Northern Zhou Emperor, Wanyan Lie, was extremely protective and doted on his precious nephew the most. That was why he made Feng Cang a king at the age of ten and gave him military power at the age of fifteen. Now, he even had the thought of passing the throne to Feng Cang.
If Feng Cang told Wanyan Lie about what happened today, he would definitely allow Feng Cang to attack the Western Qi Kingdom. There were plenty of examples in history where a war was started over a small matter!
"Your Highness, please wait!" Long Zeyu quickly stopped Feng Cang.
Looking at Long Zeyu, Murong Qiqi 'shivered' in fear and hid in Long Zeyu's embrace. "Your Highness, they can't be trying to silence us, right?" Murong Qiqi asked timidly.
"Pfft —" Long Zeyu vomited blood.
What did he mean by silencing them? What does that mean? He just didn't want the situation to worsen and wanted to explain! How did Murong Qiqi make it sound like she was trying to silence him? He wouldn't dare to do anything to Feng Cang in front of so many people even if he had ten guts!
Long Zeyu wanted to scold Murong Qiqi, but Feng Cang was so protective of her. He could only be patient and put on a smile, "Wang ye, please stay. No matter how you look at it, this is Yu'er's fault. Zhen apologizes to wang fei on Yu'er's behalf."
In just a few minutes, Murong Qiqi's status had been upgraded from 'princess' to 'consort'. These words seemed to go along with Feng Cang's wishes. Feng Cang stopped, but he continued to protect Murong Qiqi.
"Wang fei, zhen doesn't have many children. Although Yu'er has gone overboard, he is still zhen's flesh and blood. Zhen is also at fault for not disciplining him strictly. However, can you understand a father's heart? Can you not make zhen send my son off? "
Long Zeyu's words were very emotional, and there was a possibility that he was trying to stir up emotions. However, at this point in time, he was still protecting Long Zeyu 'er. This was much better than Murong Tai, who had been silent from the start and allowed Murong Qiqi to fend for herself.
"Your Majesty's words are very reasonable …"
Murong Qiqi seemed to be moved, but Feng Cang, who was beside her, remained silent. He had already left this matter to this little princess to deal with. It was just a lowly life. If Murong Qiqi let Long Zeyu go, he wouldn't stop her. If Murong Qiqi wanted Long Zeyu's life, he would definitely help her.
"That's right —" Seeing that Murong Qiqi was no longer pursuing the matter, Long Zeyu let out a sigh of relief. Looks like she's just a little girl. Her heart softened just because I showed some weakness.
Seeing through Long Zeyu's thoughts, Murong Qiqi slowly wiped away her tears. "I heard that there's a saying called 'losing wealth to avert disaster'. If Your Majesty is willing to give up some things in exchange for the princess's life, this consort can consider it!"
Long Zeyu nodded repeatedly when he heard Murong Qiqi's offer. "Good! No problem! As long as Wang fei doesn't pursue the matter, zhen will agree to anything you want! "
Murong Qiqi smiled as soon as Long Zeyu spoke. Long Zeyu suddenly felt like he had fallen into a trap when he saw the girl's smile. Could it be that Murong Qiqi went around in circles just to wait for him?
Before Long Zeyu could figure it out, Murong Qiqi already spoke, "I heard from my father that there's a hundred-year-old taisui in Xiqi's imperial palace. It just so happens that His Highness is still lacking a taisui. Why don't we use this to exchange …"
Before Murong Qiqi could finish, Long Zeyu's heart was already bleeding from the pain.
This hundred-year-old taisui was something that his father, the Imperial Emperor, had stolen from the former imperial palace of the Great Qin Kingdom when he founded Xiqi. It was priceless and a precious item that could grant immortality. It was a life-saving treasure that he kept!
Long Zeyu glared at Murong Tai when he heard that it was Murong Tai who had told him about it. This bastard! He actually told Murong Qiqi about this. Now that Murong Qiqi was using this as an exchange, what should he do?
Murong Tai was suffering in silence and couldn't voice his bitterness. He didn't remember telling Murong Qiqi about this. Could it be when he was drunk? This girl was usually so stupid, so why was she so quick-witted now?
Long Zeyu's silence made Murong Qiqi smile. She clicked her tongue and looked at Long Zeyu sympathetically. "It looks like His Majesty doesn't truly love you. In that case, this consort can only reluctantly take your life!"
"No! No! " Long Zeyu knelt in front of Long Zeyu. "Imperial Father, don't you love Yu 'er the most? Are you going to watch Yu 'er die in front of you? Imperial Father, how can you leave me in the lurch? At that time, what will the world say about you?! "
Long Zeyu's last sentence hit Long Zeyu's heart.
He was usually very particular about benevolence, righteousness, and morality. If he allowed Murong Qiqi to kill Long Zeyu today, his reputation would be tarnished. If the people knew that he was so cold-blooded and left Yu 'er in the lurch, their hearts would be shaken and he would lose even more!
