In the Prime Minister's mansion.
In the study, Prime Minister Liu looked at his daughter who was sitting on the side with an indifferent look and frowned. He walked back and forth in the study room with his hands behind his back. After a while, he turned around and stared at Noble Concubine Liu, "Daughter, what do you want?" Noble Concubine Liu raised her head and said unhappily, "What?" Prime Minister Liu said angrily, "What? Why do you ask? We had a good discussion before. Why do you want to mess with Mo Xiuyao at this time? "
Noble Concubine Liu frowned slightly, "How did I mess with Mo Xiuyao?"
Prime Minister Liu had a headache. It was good to have a smart, beautiful, and spoiled daughter, but it was a headache to have a disobedient daughter. Rubbing his forehead, Prime Minister Liu took a deep breath and said calmly, "We had a deal. First, we will deal with the matter of the burial. Now that this matter hasn't been resolved and you've provoked Mo Xiuyao, if he suddenly interferes … You have to know that Father and Prince Li are still suppressing this matter under the pressure of those scholars and old pedants. As long as Prince Ding says something, those people will make trouble again. "Noble Concubine Liu supported her head with her hands and looked at Prime Minister Liu indifferently," What do you want? "
"No matter what, you should let Feng Zhiyao go first. He is Mo Xiuyao's man. Since Mo Xiuyao has said that he has no intention of interfering in the affairs in the capital, we should not mess with him for the time being. "
Noble Concubine Liu said unhappily, "Prince Ding took Tan Jizhi away. Father … Don't you know what Feng Zhiyao did?"
"No matter what he did!" Prime Minister Liu said firmly, "He took the Empress away, so what? It is not bad for us. If the Empress is still alive, she will be the Empress Dowager when the new Emperor ascends the throne. At that time, the Hua Family will be able to help the new Emperor openly. Isn't it good now? The new Emperor is still young. If his birth mother dies early, then as the previous Emperor's Imperial Concubine, you will naturally be the most powerful person in the palace. What's more, Hua Clan has such a weakness in our hands. By then … "Prime Minister Liu showed a smug smile when he thought of the situation where Hua Clan was under the foot of Liu Clan or even under the control of Liu Clan.
Noble Consort Liu lowered her eyes, and a trace of disdain flashed across her eyes. The most powerful person in the palace? So what? Even if it was the position of Empress Dowager, if she didn't have that person, what was the use of those noble positions?
Prime Minister Liu turned around and saw the sneer and disdain on Noble Concubine Liu's lips. He frowned and asked, "Haven't you given up on Prince Ding?"
Seeing Noble Concubine Liu's determined eyes, Prime Minister Liu felt extremely uncomfortable. He was about to spit out a mouthful of blood in his chest. What sin had he committed to have such a disappointing daughter? What a sin!
"It has been so many years. If Prince Ding likes you, he wouldn't have waited until now. Why are you still …" Prime Minister Liu tried his best to persuade her.
"Shut up!" What Prime Minister Liu said really touched Noble Concubine Liu's bottom line. Her delicate face was instantly covered with a layer of anger. Noble Concubine Liu glared at her father in front of her. She gritted her teeth and said, "I don't believe it. He doesn't dislike me. He just didn't kill me! "Prime Minister Liu didn't know what to say at that moment.
Prime Minister Liu didn't know what to say. He really didn't understand where the Liu family's education had failed to raise such a stubborn daughter. A woman in her thirties would be a grandmother in an ordinary family. Even if she didn't enter the palace, she should be a lady in charge of a noble family. How could a woman at her age care about a man wholeheartedly? And a man who didn't care about her at all!
"Sin! Sin … "Prime Minister Liu sighed and stamped his feet.
Noble Concubine Liu didn't care about her father's anxiety. She showed a faint but sweet smile, "Yes, that's right. He just didn't see me. Tomorrow, I will go to the Prince Ding Mansion to see him. He will definitely understand how I feel about him. "
"Are you sure he won't kick you out?" Prime Minister Liu poured cold water on her mercilessly. Noble Concubine Liu caught Prince Ding's people. The most likely reaction of Prince Ding was to detain Noble Concubine Liu as well. At that time, they would still have to exchange people for her. Maybe they would have to pay a higher price. Prime Minister Liu didn't think that Mo Xiuyao would pay a high price for Feng Zhiyao. After all, Feng Zhiyao was just a subordinate. If Prince Ding got angry because of this, it would be more likely that his dignity was challenged. Prime Minister Liu really couldn't admit that this daughter was taught by him.
Noble Concubine Liu smiled confidently, "No, unless … he doesn't want Feng San to die."
Prime Minister Liu sneered, "Why are you going to see him? Do you want him to marry you? Don't tell me you don't know that Prince Ding loves the princess deeply. For so many years, he only has Princess Ding by his side. Do you think Prince Ding will betray his wife for Feng San? "
Not only that, Prime Minister Liu was also a man. From a man's point of view, it was absolutely impossible for him to abandon Princess Ding, who was also outstanding in appearance and ability and had been in the same boat with him, for a woman who had been married and had given birth to another man's child, even if that woman was as beautiful as a fairy. Abandoning his wife for pure beauty was a despicable thing to do. Prime Minister Liu wasn't a good man, but he wasn't despicable either. How could Prince Ding do something that even he disdained to do?
Noble Concubine Liu looked at Prime Minister Liu strangely, "Father, I really don't understand. Don't you know that both the new emperor and Mo Jingli are far inferior to Prince Ding? As long as Mo Xiuyao wants, he can get as much as the Da Chu State. If I get better, the Liu Family will get better. Why are you so against it? "
Prime Minister Liu bitterly smiled in his heart, but once again confirmed that he had failed to educate his daughter. It seemed that … it was time to give up. Fortunately, two of his granddaughters were about to reach marriageable age. Although they weren't as beautiful and talented as his daughter, they were still excellent. King Li and King Qin had to be careful. As for Prince Ding … sorry, Prime Minister Liu had never considered the possibility of relying on Prince Ding. Not only because of the dirty relationship between the Liu Family and the Prince Ding Mansion, but also because Mo Xiuyao's behavior was completely different from the Liu Family's. Even if Prince Ding really married Noble Concubine Liu, the Liu Family wouldn't get any benefits from it.
Helplessly waving his hand, Prime Minister Liu said blandly, "Alright, since you don't want to listen to me, then do whatever you want. But … I just hope that you won't bring trouble to the Liu Family. In the future … you don't have to come back. After all, you are a concubine of the late emperor. It's not appropriate for you to always go out of the palace. "Noble Concubine Liu paused, looking at Prime Minister Liu confusedly. For so many years, her father had never talked to her in this tone. It wasn't anger or coldness, but a faint disheartened and alienated feeling. Instinctively, Noble Concubine Liu didn't like this feeling.
"Father …"
"Alright, you can go now. Oh, right, I plan to marry Xian to King Li. "Prime Minister Liu told her his plan.
