"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Qin Chen stood up.

"Brother, Zhao'er has been pregnant for just over a month. You have already given her two palace maids, so why are you giving Chen'er five concubines now?"

When the emperor heard Princess Zhaoyang's question, his face turned extremely ugly.

"I am doing this for the Marquis Qin's mansion. Qin Chen was poisoned before and it was difficult for him to have children. Now he has children. If I don't give birth to more children, how can I be worthy of Lord Qin if he dies?"

When Princess Zhaoyang heard this, she laughed sarcastically.

"Royal brother, if you really want the best for the Qin Marquis's house, you shouldn't grant concubines again and again. They love each other and now they are finally pregnant. It's a happy time, but you want to break up the couple. Do you think that the imperial decree will never be changed?"

"I am the emperor, and the imperial edict is of course final. Now that they have entered the Qin Hou Mansion, they are Qin Hou Mansion's people in life and Qin Hou Mansion's ghosts in death." When the emperor heard Princess Zhaoyang's direct words, he felt a burning pain on his face.

He used to love this imperial sister very much, but over the years, he also had resentment towards Princess Zhaoyang.

He had always suspected that Princess Zhaoyang and Yun Cheng and others had secretly done the disappearance of Prince Chen. Otherwise, Xiao Jingchen would never have had the chance to come back.

"Sure enough, you just can't see them doing well. What on earth are they doing to you? Yun Cheng died in the battle to defend his country, several of my sons died, and I finally found such a daughter, but you want to kill her too, right? Do you want me to die too?"

Princess Zhaoyang's words made the emperor frown.

"Zhaoyang, how dare you yell at me?"

"What's wrong with me yelling at you?" Princess Zhaoyang said angrily.

She had endured it for too long, and she had long wanted to quarrel with the emperor. She was not afraid of the emperor, and the emperor did not dare to kill her openly. She had long wanted to vent her hatred.

"Well, you are really good. I am too good to you."

When Queen Zheng heard the emperor's gloomy words, she immediately began to persuade him.

"Your Majesty, calm down. Zhaoyang, calm down."

The emperor listened to Queen Zheng's words, looked at her gloomily, and said in a cold voice.

"Calm down, how can I calm down? What's wrong with me rewarding a few concubines? Have I committed any big mistake?" The emperor looked at Princess Zhaoyang.

"Zhaoyang, you are blaming me. Do you think I was the one who killed Yuncheng?"

"So what? That's what I think..."

Princess Zhaoyang said directly.

The emperor was so angry that his face turned blue and he smashed a teacup.

Princess Zhaoyang also smashed a teacup.

The maids and eunuchs serving in the palace were so frightened that they fell to their knees, trembling. They didn't want to hear these royal secrets. The emperor and Princess Zhaoyang were arguing fiercely. If the emperor calmed down, they might not be able to save their lives.

Eunuch Hai waved at his men, signaling them to leave quickly.

If we don't get out now, these people's lives will be in danger.

When everyone saw Eunuch Hai's gesture, they were grateful to him and ran out. After they retreated outside the hall, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Eunuch Bei was guarding outside the hall. As he watched those people retreat, he also took a few steps back.

They had cloth stuffed in their ears, and they dared not hear a word of the quarrel between the Emperor and Princess Zhaoyang, let alone remember it in their minds.
