Inside the side hall, the atmosphere was depressing yet lazy.

Shangguan Wei sat cross-legged on the bed, looking like a scoundrel with an infuriating smile on her face; Situ Yuan glared at Shangguan Wei with anger, as if he was looking at a heinous criminal.

"Your behavior is too vulgar, you don't have the demeanor of a lady from a noble family, you do whatever you want and are overbearing. Yesterday, you caused a big disturbance in the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works, and your bad reputation spread throughout the capital. You are not worthy of the status of Princess Sheng. I want Chong'er to divorce you."

Shangguan Wei nodded in understanding, "Your Majesty, you can divorce, but your husband is reluctant to do so, so your Majesty should not waste your energy."

Situ Yuan jumped up in anger after hearing this, "Chong'er, divorce her immediately. This girl is too arrogant and looks down on the emperor. How can she be the mistress of the family? The marriage I gave her is still valid. Imprison this extremely hateful girl in the Heavenly Prison and wait for my decision."

Shangguan Wei put her hands on her hips and said, "I can't stand it any longer. Your Majesty keeps saying that you want me to divorce you. Do you think I'm a vegetarian with no temper?"

Situ Yuan was furious and pointed at Shangguan Wei, "Come here, arrest her immediately and put her in the prison."

Situ Chong said coldly, "Father, if you dare to touch my wife, don't blame me for turning my face against you."

Situ Yuan's face flushed, "Rebellious son, you are going to piss me off to death. You are going against me for a woman like this. I must punish her today."

"Father, please don't tease me. She is my weak spot. Just try to touch her hair."

Situ Chong's eyes became sharp and a chill emanated from his whole body, like a bloodthirsty Shura returning from hell.

Seeing the father and son at a stalemate, the good eunuch stepped forward and stood in the middle, "Your Majesty, Prince Sheng, please take a break and let me have a word. Anger is harmful to your health. Why don't you sit down and have a good talk?"

Situ Yuan was attacked by the cold, and his legs softened as he sat down. "Hmph, I can give in. With her humble status, she can only be a concubine."

"No, I, Shangguan Wei, will never be a concubine in this life, and Situ Chong can only have me as his woman."

"I will only have one wife in my life, Shangguan Wei, and I will never take a concubine."

Shangguan Wei and Situ Chong said in unison, then they smiled at each other, with only each other in their eyes.

"You, you don't take me seriously, Chong'er, don't blame your father for torturing you. Come, take Prince Sheng out and give him thirty lashes."

After saying this, four palace guards hurriedly trotted in from the door and walked towards the bed with serious expressions.

"Whoever dares to come forward, I will make him suffer."

Shangguan Wei's face turned cold instantly, and she swept a cold and stern gaze towards the palace guards, with the aura of a superior.

Situ Yuan waved his hand and said, "Come on, arrest this girl as well."

"Humph, I'm just afraid you don't have the ability."

"Little girl, stop it."

"Hmph, it's too late."

……

Fengyi Palace.

Queen Luo sat on the soft couch in the side hall, her left hand on the small square table, tapping three fingers rhythmically, her eyes looking outside the gate from time to time.

A young eunuch hurried in and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Sheng confronted Your Majesty in the side hall of the Imperial Study. That little bitch was so eager to protect her husband that she had a big fight with Your Majesty's guards, which really pissed Your Majesty off. Oh my goodness, the tit-for-tat scene was quite exciting."

Queen Luo's eyes flashed with surprise, "Xiao Dezi, has His Majesty punished them, especially the sickly one?"

Xiao Dezi thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I cannot enter the palace and can only watch from afar. I am anxious to come back and report to Your Majesty, but I have not heard anything further."

Empress Luo stood up and walked out with a wicked smile on her face, "Come on, little Dezi, come with me to see the excitement. This show can't be without me. That sickly guy has lived too long."

Xiao Dezi nodded and said yes, then ran forward and held Empress Luo's left arm. The master and servant walked towards the Qianxuan Hall.

……

In the royal garden.

The dining table was filled with all kinds of exquisite delicacies, and several palace maids in pink were busying around. The good eunuch looked at Situ Yuan in surprise.

I cannot bear to see Your Majesty acting like a bootlicker.

"Chong'er, pick more dishes for Wei'er. These are specially made by the imperial chef ordered by the emperor."

"Wei'er, eat more and get fatter so that you can give birth to Chong'er."

"Oh, Chong'er, hurry up. What if Wei'er is hungry? Let father peel it for Wei'er himself."

Situ Yuan sat in the main seat, looking at Shangguan Wei with a loving face, and was courteous in all kinds of ways, as if the word "ancestor" was written on his face.

Shangguan Wei stroked her belly and said, "Your Majesty, I'm full, no need to send me food."

Situ Yuan pretended to be displeased and said, "No, Your Majesty, you are Chong'er's princess, you should call me father."

Shangguan Wei burped, "Uh, is it okay for me to call you father with my status?"

Situ Yuan suddenly realized and slapped his forehead with his left hand, "Yes, yes, you are the ancestor, I should call you the little ancestor."

Shangguan Wei was so scared that she quickly waved her hands, "Stop, don't call me little ancestor, I will follow my husband and call you father."

Situ Yuan smiled with satisfaction and said, "Okay, okay, if Chong'er bullies you in the future, tell father immediately and he will be severely punished."

Situ Chong covered his mouth with his left hand and chuckled, "Father, you want your daughter-in-law instead of your subject."

Situ Yuan rolled his eyes at Situ Chong and said, "Who told you to be a blockhead? Father is afraid that you will neglect Wei'er."

Situ Chong smiled and nodded, "I know, I will definitely treat her a hundred times better."

Shangguan Wei took out two white porcelain bottles from her sleeves and placed them on the table. "Father, this is a pill to prolong your life. It will be very beneficial to your body. Take one pill every seven days to prolong your life and strengthen your body. After you finish it, your daughter-in-law will give it to you again."

Situ Yuan showed a look of surprise on his face. He looked at the good eunuch behind him and urged him, "Go, help me get the elixir."

The good eunuch said yes respectfully, then went over to take the white porcelain bottle back and handed it to Situ Yuan.

Situ Yuan held it tightly in his hand like a treasure, "My daughter-in-law is so thoughtful. Father got two of them a long time ago. Their efficacy is so good that it is hard to describe. Father must reward Wei Er handsomely. Is there anything you want?"

Shangguan Wei placed her chin on the table with both hands, a look of distress written across her face, her big eyes darting from side to side.

"Don't worry, ma'am. Your husband will ask for it for you."

"Oh, what can my husband do for me?"

"Hold on."

Situ Chong stood up and said, "Father, I dare to ask you for a title to prevent Wei'er from being criticized in the capital."

Situ Yuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Well, Chong'er is thoughtful. Wei'er does need an identity, so let her be a princess. I will give her the name of Dragon Pearl Princess and she can choose her fiefdom. I will send the imperial decree to Prince Sheng's Mansion tomorrow."

Shangguan Wei frowned as ten thousand alpacas flew past her eyes.

Princess Dragon Ball, I am still Dragon Ball. The old emperor’s naming is really not very good. Forget it, I’ll just bear with it.

She bowed and said, "Thank you, father. I will obey your order. As for the fief, I don't need it for the time being. I will ask for it when I think about it."

Upon hearing this, Situ Yuan laughed heartily, "Hahaha! As long as Wei'er likes it, there's no need to rush to get the fiefdom."

As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of Queen Luo came from behind him.

"Your Majesty, I come to see you."
