Chapter 915: Xu Changqing's Officialdom PhilosophyChapter 1441: This Subject, Takes Leave

This discovery made Zhao Xuanji feel a sense of shame, like his own home had been robbed.

As if he had thought of something, Zhao Xuanji asked in a deep voice: "You and him... do you have any substantial relationship"

This question has become extremely blatant.

Zhao Qinglan could understand the meaning of this question.

Her cheeks flushed with a blush of anger, she exclaimed, "What do you take me for Me and him, we're innocent! I just don't want you to walk down a dangerous path!"

"So you still care about me, after all."

Zhao Xuanji let out a cold snort, gritting his teeth as he said, “Zhao Qinglan, don’t forget who your father is, who your husband is, and who he is!”

This sentence, like a slap in the face, left Zhao Qinglan feeling humiliated and furious.

"Get out!"

Zhao Qinglan pointed at the door and said loudly, "I never want to see you again!"

Zhao Xuanji stood there, coldly saying: "How many years has it been How many years has no one dared to speak to me like this Even the great emperor wouldn't drive me out, and yet my own daughter wants to"

Zhao Qinglan didn't speak, she just stared at Zhao Xuanji with an utterly resolute gaze.

Zhao Xuanji took a deep breath and said, "Fine, I won't conflict with you."

But don't forget your own identity. Some thoughts that shouldn't exist, nip them in the bud as early as possible. Otherwise, you won't just be harming yourself, but everyone around you will be implicated as well.

If I were to detect even the slightest bit of abnormality between you, don't blame me for going mad as a father.

"I said before, these are just your wishful guesses. I'm not so cheap, you can think what you want, but Zhao Xuanji, Lord Zhao, this palace will warn you for the last time: no matter how good you are at power struggles, there should always be a bottom line. As the Empress of the Qin Empire, it is my duty to protect the emperor's children. If you do something you shouldn't, then this palace will go mad!"

This sentence made Zhao Xuanji's face burn with pain.

He never imagined that one day he would be threatened by his own flesh and blood daughter.

What made things even worse was Zhao Qinglan's next sentence.

"You know, if I were to give it my all and become the most disgraceful empress in history, forever ridiculed and scorned by posterity, then I could find a way to turn your lifelong efforts into nothingness. In this world, anyone who accuses you can be evaded or denied. The only thing is, when it comes to my own biological daughter's words, no one would question them."

"Truth may be built on power, but you haven't reached the point where you can control everything. The East Palace still has enough power to suppress you. Su Zhen Ting and the princes won't just stand by and watch you eliminate the East Palace. So your enemies are many, you haven't reached a point where you can control everything. Therefore, don't easily disregard my words."

"Father, you just said that I, like you, am ruthless and unfeeling. You... are right."

Zhao Qinglan's words, each one resonated deeply.

Zhaoxuanji listened expressionlessly, without making any comment.

He simply took a step back, lowered his head, and bowed. He crossed his hands on his chest and raised them above his head as he said, “Your servant takes his leave.”

Zhao Qinglan stood still, saying nothing and moving not a muscle.

She watched Zhao Xuanji retreat and leave Fengxi Palace. When Zhao Xuanji was completely gone, the strength that had been supporting Zhao Qinglan seemed to disappear instantly. She immediately collapsed onto a chair.calmly before Zhang Biwu. Looking down at him from his height, he said: "Therefore, this palace's rice does not feed idlers."Zhang Biwu's face turned serious. He knew that if he didn't show something...
