The Emperor used a lot of strength in his anger and Princess Shu He fell to the ground.
She covered half of her face. There was no need to look, it was already swollen.
"Imperial Father?" Princess Shu He looked at the Emperor in disbelief. She couldn't believe that he had just hit her without caring about his status!
"You really, really disappoint me!" The Emperor looked at his daughter who was as beautiful as a flower.
He had many children. Just counting the princesses, there were more than ten of them. Among them, Princess Shu He was born in a noble family and had the most outstanding appearance out of all his daughters. He had always doted on her.
However, there was a limit to an Emperor's love.
"From what I see, I have spoiled you too much. That's why you have such an arrogant personality!" The Emperor looked at Princess Shu He and said coldly.
"You think that Yun Zhen is climbing up the social ladder by marrying you? Go and ask all the princesses in the palace if they are willing to marry Yun Zhen! "
"I can tolerate you throwing a tantrum and being a little arrogant. My daughter should naturally be proud. However, you can't even tell what's important and what's not!" The Emperor looked at his daughter in disappointment. "You actually dared to hire an assassin to assassinate an important official of the court and my great general of the country!"
Hearing this, Princess Shu He, who had been feeling wronged and confused, finally understood that what she had been worried about had happened. Imperial Father knew what she had done.
This made her heart sink to the bottom. She understood her Imperial Father. He was a true Emperor. This also meant that no matter how much he doted on her, she couldn't compare to his country.
She hurriedly got up and walked to the Emperor's side on her knees. She tugged at his robe. "Imperial Father, I know I was wrong. I was just blinded by greed. I really know I was wrong. Besides … Besides, isn't General Fu fine? "
The Emperor saw that she was still looking for excuses and his heart turned cold. Two assassinations, did she really know she was wrong?
He coldly flung away the crying Princess Shu He. "Stay here and reflect. If you really know you were wrong, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to atone for the court! Humph!
He snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and left.
Imperial Concubine Fang, who had rushed over after hearing the news, was first stopped outside the palace by the guards in charge of guarding Princess Shu He. She was also stopped outside when she went to ask for an audience with the Emperor. Only then did she realize the importance of this matter.
However, no matter how she thought about it, she could not figure out what kind of mistake her daughter had committed.
Gu Shengyin was summoned to the palace by the Emperor.
"That group of assassins entered the Supreme Court and committed suicide by taking poison one by one. They were unable to detect the mastermind behind the scenes." The Emperor said apologetically to Gu Shengyin.
"Fortunately, His Highness Prince Rong is fine." Gu Shengyin was not surprised that the Emperor had suppressed this matter. After all, if this matter was exposed, the entire imperial family would lose face.
The Emperor could not afford to lose face like this.
"That's right, I have already drafted a decree. Princess Shu He suddenly fell ill and is now recuperating in the Palace of Ganquan. I'm afraid she will not be able to marry you. Your marriage will be canceled." The Emperor seemed to be a bit tired. He waved his hand at her and had her leave.
Not long after Gu Shengyin returned to the fu, she received the imperial decree from the palace as well as a large pile of rewards. This honor was so great that many people who had laughed at Fu Yunzhen because of the cancellation of his marriage with the Princess were speechless.
Only Gu Shengyin knew that this was just another form of compensation from the Emperor to her.
