Just as everyone was about to leave, the Emperor suddenly called out to Wei Ziyao.
"Wei Ziyao, stay here. Zhen has something to say to you."
"Oh." Wei Ziyao and Ki Chien-chul exchanged glances. Both of them didn't know why the Emperor called for her at this time.
Wei Ziyao nodded and stayed where she was without moving.
"Wei Ziyao, do you also think that zhen's appointment of the Imperial Noble Consort is abrupt?"
Wei Ziyao never thought that she would one day become her father-in-law's love mentor.
"Fuhuang, how do you want me to answer this? Liking a person is your own business. It's normal to exercise your privilege to be good to the woman you love. But the position of the Imperial Noble Consort is second only to the Empress of the Six Palaces. It's a matter of the entire country. If you let her sit in that high position, it depends … Is it because you love her or because you want to restrain someone? "
When Wei Ziyao said this, the Emperor suddenly narrowed his eyes dangerously. The way he looked at Wei Ziyao had completely changed.
"Wei Ziyao, you are too smart. So smart that it makes zhen's hair stand on end. You know, zhen doesn't trust you. Aren't you afraid that zhen will get rid of you after you said this?"
The Emperor did have the intention to kill.
Wei Ziyao shook her head: "I'm not afraid, because the Emperor is a wise emperor. If you do anything to me, it will definitely cause Ki Chien-chul to be at odds with you. The First Prince is gone, and the real capable prince under you, I'm afraid …"
Speaking of this, she didn't continue. After all, some things should stop here.
"What's more, this daughter-in-law is not smart, but I understand you. I feel that even if you really love her, it's enough to let her live in a place unknown to others in the palace. You will never let her regain your favor in such a high-profile manner. After all … the gun will hit the bird that sticks out. There are so many people in the palace who can be the Imperial Noble Consort, so this daughter-in-law doesn't dare to guess further. What's more, I don't have such a good brain. I can only show my slight skill in front of Fuhuang and show off a little."
A little? You call that a little?
The Northern Wen Emperor looked at Wei Ziyao and waved his hand. "Alright, you can leave now."
"Excuse me."
Wei Ziyao retreated out of the hall, but the Northern Wen Emperor suddenly called out to her.
"Hold on, Consort Duan … What did she like to eat when she was with you?"
"Consort Duan loves spicy food and likes to eat meat, especially roasted meat. She doesn't like bland or sweet dishes, but she likes desserts very much."
After Wei Ziyao told the Northern Wen Emperor about Consort Duan's preferences, she left.
In fact, he knew that there were two possibilities for bringing Zi Yuan up. The first one was that it was purely to restrain the Empress. Recently, the Empress had made a lot of mistakes, and the Emperor couldn't turn a blind eye to it. As for the second one … It was probably that the Northern Wen Emperor wanted to let Ki Chien-chul and Fourth Princess officially compete.
Fourth Princess was the Empress's legitimate child, while Ki Chien-chul's mother was just Consort Duan. There was a huge gap between their statuses. However, if Zi Yuan became the Imperial Noble Consort, he would have the right to compete with her.
In short, Ki Chien-chul had the advantage.
After coming out of the hall, Ki Chien-chul greeted her. "Father didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
"No, why would he make things difficult for me? He just talked about the Imperial Noble Consort."
"What did he talk about?" Ki Chien-chul asked.
"You should be able to guess it." After hearing her words, Ki Chien-chul understood.
They had already discussed the competition for the throne before, so they didn't mention it again.
When they returned to the mansion, Dong Mei had been waiting at the gate for a long time, looking anxious.
"Miss!"
Seeing Wei Ziyao come back, she greeted her excitedly.
"Miss, just now, His Highness the Seventh Prince took Ruier to the herb garden. What happened? His Highness the Seventh Prince didn't say anything. Could it be … could it be the Royal Highness … "
Tsui Hee now looked at Ki Chien-chul as if she was looking at a heartless man.
"It's okay. The Emperor asked me to deal with her."
"Asked Miss? That's a good thing. " Tsui Hee said happily, "This Concubine Rui has done a lot of bad things in order to target Miss. We have to teach her a lesson later."
As she spoke, Cui Xi followed behind Wei Ziyao and walked happily towards the herb garden.
