C298 Disappointment

Seeing Qi Gongzhu, Liu Zhimo couldn't help but frown. Why was she here?

But since she was a princess, he couldn't pretend he didn't see her, so he greeted her.

Qi Gongzhu heard Liu Zhimo's magnetic voice, and her heartbeat quickened two more times. She thought herself as though she was revealing a beautiful smile, and asked Liu Zhimo with a gentle tone, "Are we leaving the palace already?"

"Yes, Qi Gongzhu, this subject will take her leave."

After Liu Zhimo finished speaking, he did not wait for Qi Gongzhu's reply and turned to leave.

How could Qi Gongzhu let him leave so easily when they finally saw each other? She immediately chased after Liu Zhimo and blocked his path.

If Liu Zhimo had not reacted fast and was about to collide with Qi Gongzhu, he would have frowned and asked what was the matter?

Qi Gongzhu opened her mouth, but before she could speak, she heard Gao Song's voice.

"Qi Gongzhu, the Emperor is looking for you." Gao Song shook his head helplessly. Qi Gongzhu was so careless in stopping Liu Zhimo, how could she not be afraid of others seeing?

Furthermore, she already knew that Liu Zhimo was already married, and if she continued to pester Liu Zhimo like this, she would be even more shameless.

No wonder the Emperor was so angry. If he had such a daughter, he would have been angered to death.

"Eunuch, please inform royal father and tell him to wait for a moment. I will go in after I have exchanged a few words with Lord Liu."

"Qi Gongzhu, this old servant can't make a decision. You can tell it to the emperor yourself!"

Qi Gongzhu thought for a while, but still didn't dare to offend the emperor. She reluctantly glanced at Liu Zhimo, and asked if Liu Zhimo could wait for her for a while.

"..." Liu Zhimo looked at Qi Gongzhu speechlessly, and felt that she really had no brains. He was just a subject, and was even a relative by marriage, how could he be an unmarried princess here?

Gao Song was also a little speechless in his heart. He felt that Qi Gongzhu had grown a head for nothing, and could even say words that would misunderstand others?

"Lord Liu, Qi Gongzhu was joking with you, she did not stop Lord Liu from leaving the palace."

Liu Zhimo nodded to Gao Song and left with big strides.

Qi Gongzhu was very unhappy about Gao Song acting on his own initiative. She coldly looked at Gao Song and walked into the imperial study in large strides.

Once she entered, the emperor stared at her with a face as cold as water, causing her to tremble with fear. "Imperial Father, what business do you have with me?"

After a long while, the emperor retracted his gaze, and waved his hand towards Gao Song, telling him to go out first.

"Huh?" Qi Gongzhu looked at the emperor in shock. What happened to royal father? Why was he so angry? "She didn't do anything wrong to offend him!" royal father... "You …"

"Don't let me repeat myself."

Perhaps because he saw that the emperor's expression was too ugly, Qi Gongzhu did not dare to resist and slowly knelt down before the emperor.

Ever since she was young, her royal father had never allowed her to kneel before him before. This time, how could he …

Qi Gongzhu's head spun twice again. She really couldn't think of what she had done to anger the Emperor.

The emperor's downcast eyes looked at Qi Gongzhu who was kneeling on the ground, and asked angrily, "Does she know her wrongs?"

Qi Gongzhu asked the emperor in confusion, what did she do wrong?

Her head had spun a few rounds, but she still didn't know how she had managed to cause her royal father to be unhappy?

The emperor felt that Qi Gongzhu was trying to quibble, so he slammed on the table hard. The loud sound startled Qi Gongzhu.

"Did we tell you that Lord Liu is already married?"

Although she knew that Lord Liu was already married, she felt that Liu Zhimo didn't really want to marry that countryside girl. She was forced to marry her, there was nothing she could do about it.

However, she couldn't speak the truth about him in front of the Emperor? She asked with doubt, when did Lord Liu get married?

The emperor looked at Qi Gongzhu, not caring if she knew or not, he continued, "Lord Liu got married two years ago, his wife is not bad." He felt that the child's face was similar to Qi Gongzhu's, they were both very handsome.

"Royal father, what do you want to say to me? Why can't I understand it? "

The Emperor scoffed, "It doesn't matter if you really don't understand, or if you just don't. In any case, you can't pester the Lord Liu anymore, do you hear me?" The princess of the imperial family wasn't worried about marriage, so how could she shamelessly chase after a man like that? If word of this got out, where would he put his face?

Looks like he really wanted to choose a prince consort for Qi Gongzhu. With a consort consort, he didn't believe that Qi Gongzhu wouldn't be able to take back her heart.

Thinking about this, the Emperor took out a large stack of portraits and placed it on the table, allowing Qi Gongzhu to stand up and walk to his side.

When Qi Gongzhu heard that she did not need to kneel anymore, she quickly got up. With a smile, she walked to the emperor's side and asked.

The emperor pointed to the portrait on the table, then showed it to Qi Gongzhu. Which one do you like?

Hearing that, Qi Gongzhu's face became deathly pale, and she asked with a trembling voice, "Father … royal father, what do you mean by this? " Father, are you planning to enlist a prince consort for her?

But she didn't like these people, she liked Liu Zhimo.

The emperor did not look at Qi Gongzhu's face, he calmly said, "You have grown up, and are now at the age to accept Prince Consort. This is a young man that I have chosen for you, take a good look at him, whoever you like, just tell me, I will be the judge for you."

This time, he was determined to properly treat Qi Gongzhu and not let her fall like this. The longer he dragged this on, the worse it would be for both Qi Gongzhu and herself.

Qi Gongzhu was his beloved daughter, she was the son of his junior brother, and was also a talented person.

Once again, the Emperor felt that it was a pity that Liu Zhimo was already married.

"Come, how about this one?" The emperor opened the scroll and pointed at the handsome man on it, then smiled as he introduced the man's family background and personal situation to Qi Gongzhu, "What do you think? Do you have your eyes on him? "

Qi Gongzhu clenched her fists tightly. Her nails dug into the flesh of her palms but she did not feel any pain.

After a moment, he reluctantly opened his mouth and said, "I don't like it."

The emperor introduced all the portraits in front of him one by one to Qi Gongzhu. After he finished introducing all the other portraits, the only answer Qi Gongzhu gave him was always those three words, "I don't like it."

The emperor slammed the table in anger and asked Qi Gongzhu, what kind of man did she like? Let her give an opinion.

Qi Gongzhu clenched her teeth, and threw caution to the wind: "Father, I like the Lord Liu, can you please accept him as my consort?" She had said it, she had said it, she had finally said it.

That's right, she did like Liu Zhimo. She just wanted to call him Prince Consort.

The emperor turned his head and stared fixedly at Qi Gongzhu. The imposing aura he exuded caused Qi Gongzhu's heart to tremble. If she hadn't gritted her teeth and tried to stand, she would have knelt on the ground out of fear.

After looking for a long time, the emperor finally spoke in a calm voice. "Did you overhear what I just told you?" "Hmm?" Liu Zhimo was only a little handsome, with better knowledge, what was there for her to throw away her face and say that she liked Liu Zhimo?

Didn't she feel embarrassed after saying those words?

This daughter of his had been spoiled too much, and she seemed to have no idea how high the sky was and how deep the earth was.

Qi Gongzhu's eyes reddened, her voice choked with emotions: "I know that he's married, then he can also go and get even with his wife, that wife of his is so vulgar, how can she be worthy of him?" Only she, Qi Gongzhu, was suitable for that man who looked like an immortal.

Yes, the princess of the imperial household was indeed noble and precious, but no matter how precious they were, they couldn't force their subject to leave their wife and marry the princess. If he really did that, not only would he embarrass the imperial family, he would also ruin his subject's heart.

How could he do such a foolish thing?

"Xiao Qi, you want This Emperor to faint? "Hmm?"

She shook her head with all her might, saying that she did not think that way. She really liked Liu Zhimo too much, wanting to call him Prince Consort. If he was not willing to be at peace with his wife, then … Then she could be an equal wife.

Wife?

The emperor looked down at Qi Gongzhu condescendingly. He never would have thought that she would say such a despicable thing.

What would a royal princess do to the royal family if she became an equal wife?

Was she really going to give up all face to the royal family for her own sake?

He really was … He really wanted to slap her face to wake her up.

Qi Gongzhu waited for a while, but did not hear the emperor's reply. She raised her head to look at the emperor's gloomy eyes, and was shocked.

"Father, I really like him. Can't you help him?"

The emperor scoffed. "Little Seven, oh little Seven, you've really disappointed Zhen too much."

Hearing the emperor's tone, Qi Gongzhu's heart tensed up. She subconsciously reached out and hugged the emperor's calf, begging the emperor not to be angry.

The emperor didn't even spare her a glance as he ordered her to leave.

He was truly disappointed in such a despicable girl. As the princess of the imperial family, she had to possess the aura and bearing of a royal princess, and not cause trouble for a man.

What was the difference between her behavior and that of a shrew in the market?

It seemed like he would have to deal with his daughter soon, so he asked her to restrain her. He didn't want her to think that he could do whatever he wanted just because he was a princess.

He would not lose a useful subject for a daughter.

He clearly knew what was important and what wasn't.

His Rivers and Mountains Society was much more important than his daughter.
