Qin Ning gritted his teeth and tried to control his raging emotions. He really did not want to give in and lower his head, but he had clearly heard the Empress’ words and could not help but take them to heart. He knew the Empress could do what she said, this was not a new way of playing around. The previous Empress had also treated those who had offended her in this exact manner, but he never imagined that the Empress would do this to him. Thinking about it now, he had always been too self-righteous, thinking…
“Just kill me instead!” Qin Ning would rather die than be humiliated, let alone let this woman have a chance to treat him like so.
“Silly! If zhen says you cannot die, then you are not allowed to. Even if you were to die, believe it or not, zhen have ways to revive you!” There was an aura of wickedness in this domineering voice, gloominess in those flamboyant words. Currently, Qianhe Liyou’s statement had made everyone present afraid to look directly at her and even more afraid to ignore what she had said. Even for her absurd remarks, it made people believe it no matter how ludicrous it was.
“Then what do you want? Do you want me to kneel at your feet and beg you to take me? Do you want me to abandon my personality and let you do as you please? I’m telling you, this will be impossible. What is the meaning of living without one’s persona!” The Empress was closing in, pressing harder step by step! Panic interspersed with shock, anxiety mixed with doubt, pushed Qin Ning’s prideful manner till it was on the verge of collapse. He was unable to control himself, and his roaring voice contained deep helplessness.
Being forced to such a miserable degree by a woman he once looked down upon, it embarrassed him, especially the other party’s poor attitude towards him. Everyone had said that the Empress’ attitude and treatment towards the Enchanting guifei had drastically changed, but how could he expect that the Empress would treat him in the same type of cold way. Those pair of cold, emotionless eyes gave him the illusion that the person in front of him loathed him. Just what had he done so wrong?
Guifei: Imperial Consort of the highest rank and is below the Empress (King Consort in this book)
“Zhen let you leave with your freedom intact, but instead you chose to stop living. Do you really think this is what so-called pride is? This is simply stupidity. Any choice is much better than the one you made. Choosing death is the most cowardly route. Simply put, you cannot face everyone’s eyes and you cannot accept the words others put on you so you choose to die. To be straightforward, zhen disdains your behavior, and zhen doesn’t think you have any pride, you mindless fool.”
In many cases, one would think it is easier to die than to live. However, for a proud and stubborn person like Qin Ning, it wasn’t so easy to persuade him with just these few words.
“Zhen will find a place to make you sober.” Qianhe Liyou’s arms extended out, sweeping around Qin Ning’s waist. With a light jump, she flew up into the air with a light force, drifting all the way towards Lake Jinpo located in the Imperial Gardens. Qin Ning wanted to struggle but found that he could not throw off that pair of arms around him. Before he could react, he suddenly felt himself freefalling, weightlessly plummeting from the air. After a few seconds of diving through the air, he instantly struck the surface of the cold lake water!
Qianhe Liyou floated in place in the air strangely, looking coldly down at the person thrown into the lake by her. Qin Ning knew how to tread water. He had just swallowed and choked on some water after being thrown in too suddenly. He quickly surfaced, breaking through the water, and stared at the person in the air with amazement!
“Clear-headed now?” Qianhe Liyou’s words echoed, her voice reverberating like she was an immortal that came from the Ninth Heavens, icy cold and without a single trace of emotion.
“You…you…” Qin Ning did not know what to say anymore, and could only keep saying ‘you’ with a trembling voice….
“Zhen dislikes those who act willfully and make a scene. You had better behave, zhen….” Qianhe Liyou suddenly stopped talking and looked in the distance. A group f of people were approaching from that direction, walking in a hurry, with a familiar scent…
“Here comes The King Dowager…”
“Huang ‘ er, what is the matter?” Early this morning, Luo Yu had received a report about the events that had happened in the Imperial Study from a palace attendant. He initially did not want to interfere. Later on, he heard that the Empress had allowed Ning guifei to leave the imperial palace. With his wisdom and high emotional intuition, he instantly surmised what choice Ning guifei had made. Although he did not care about Qin Ning’s life, he couldn’t ignore the matter for the sake of the Empress’ reputation. As such, he had hurried over, and happened to stumble upon the scene of Qianhe Liyou floating weightlessly above the lake.
“Zhen is simply disciplining a disobedient consort, do not worry.” Regarding Luo Yu’s honorific title of ‘Royal Father’, Qianhe Liyou could still not bear to call him that.
Hearing Qianhe Liyou’s explanation, Luo Yu caught sight of Qin Ning, who was struggling fitfully in the clear water. His usually well-controlled facial expressions faltered, a stunned expression tracing it. On the side, a palace attendant cleverly narrated the matter into Luo Yuy’s ear and he finally understood what had transpired.
“Huang’er, teaching a lesson is just teaching a lesson. Do not anger yourself so. Come down quickly, Royal Father has prepared some green tea. Come and accompany your Royal Father to drink some tea.” Since the Empress had spared the Enchanting guifei on that day, Luo Yu had carefully pondered over recent events. He felt that the Empress had really become like a different person. It could be said that it was a change, or her true personality had been hidden too deeply in the past. But no matter what it was, he was very pleased with the current Empress. She was bold, courageous, resourceful, clear-headed and highly talented in martial arts. No matter what subject or skill, he was very satisfied as a father. This is what the bearing and demeanor of a true ruler, an Empress should have. She had not let down his painstaking effort to raise and properly educate her into a good ruler of an empire. Thinking of his cold life, the only thing he truly cared about was this Imperial daughter of his. He had always thought that raising her to be the way she was would the greatest regret of his life. But he could have never thought that the world was so unpredictable, to suddenly create such a big transformation.
No matter what the true source of this ripple was, he thanked the heavens for this blessing.
Qianhe Liyou clearly understood that Luo Yu was pleading on behalf of Qin Ning, but she simply nodded, floating from the air to stand beside Luo Yu.
Today, Luo Yu was wearing a luxuriously-crafted gold and white long robe, making him look both elegant and noble. But because he had been in a rush, his long hair had been hurriedly swept into a random hairstyle, loosely done up. Qianhe Liyou, after seeing this, naturally went to help Luo Yu smooth down some stray hairs and fix his up-do…..
“Really fragrant.” Every time she was near Luo Yu, she could smell a condensed, light fragrance, making her incessantly happy.
“Ah, Huang’er, what are you talking about?” Luo Yu felt a little bashful. Huang’er’s intimate movements had put him at a bit of a loss. His body instinctively wanted to retreat, but he did not want to ruin this rare father and daughter interaction. As such, he let those hands linger in his hair, his face turning a bit red.
“Let’s go, let’s go taste the tea.” Qianhe Liyou retracted her hand as if she hadn’t done anything just moments before. She then gently walked forward two steps. Seeing Luo Yu still stunned in place, she turned her head back and naturally stopped in place. She then naturally interlinked her arms with his.
It had been a long time since Luo Yu had been so intimate with others, making him feel that this action right now felt rather unnatural. He wanted to break away from the soft touch, but he found that while those hands were small, they were very powerful. When he thought that they were his daughter’s hands, he stopped struggling and allowed Qianhe Liyou to take him away to his own Luoxian Palace.
On the way, neither of them said a word. Qianhe Liyou satisfactorily smelled the condensed aura emanating from Luo Yu’s body, an extraordinary light circulating into her deep eyes. The entire aura from Luo Yu’s whole body seemed to be melting into her own body…
Behind the two of them, Qin Ning was left alone in the lake, an extremely complicated look in his eyes. When he finally alighted ashore, the palace attendant nervously asked after him. When the attendant approached, his eyesight dimmed, and he fell into a dead faint after all of the stimuli from today’s events.
Qin Ning gritted his teeth and tried to control his raging emotions. He really did not want to give in and lower his head, but he had clearly heard the Empress’ words and could not help but take them to heart.
