Princess Yongjia felt a little guilty at this point, but she still said, "Father, I'm also thinking about the Marquis of Anguo. I don't want him to be deceived by this woman. She's been in the hands of the Beimo people for so long, she must be dirty..."
"Shut up!" Emperor Jinde waved his sleeves and shouted coldly.
"You are so reckless, impulsive, and willful. You really bring shame upon me."
"I want a daughter who is both virtuous and talented, dignified and generous, not a fool."
The word "idiot" made Princess Yongjia's face turn pale and blue, and her eyes widened. She couldn't believe that she was a shameful idiot in her father's eyes.
Even Concubine Li's pupils suddenly shrank and she became speechless.
The daughter she gave birth to is a fool, so what is she?
Emperor Jinde seemed furious. "Is this how Concubine Li educated the princess? She has become such a person."

Concubine Li was terrified.
His Majesty has never criticized her so harshly. Today, he probably did this to show Marquis Anguo his attitude.
Concubine Li's eyes were red, and she choked up, saying, "I love my daughter so much that I lost my mind for a moment and said something inappropriate. I am guilty."

The broad palm felt hot, and she felt the thin calluses on his fingertips.
He Zheng wants to take her away.
Emperor Jinde frowned: "Aren't you staying for dinner?"
He Zheng said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. It's not necessary. My old mother is still waiting for me to return."
"I and Jiang will take our leave first so as not to disturb Your Majesty from attending to family matters."
Emperor Jinde hummed a light "hmm" and watched He Zheng walk away with Jiang Qingyao.
Suddenly, he turned around, grabbed the teacup and threw it heavily to the ground.
“Snap—”
The teacup shattered.
In an instant, everyone, including Concubine Li, knelt on the ground.
