Zhang Tingyu felt his blood rushing up in an instant and he almost fell backwards from anger.
He has finally gotten to where he is today, is it all due to luck?
And your own hard work and timing!
He is no longer the consort of the princess, but now the powerful and influential Lord Zhang!
However, all this was about to be ruined by his beloved daughter.
If any of these words were to be spread out, it would be a capital crime punishable by genocide!
He attacked Changning for the first time.
She was slapped to the ground, and blood came out of her mouth.
Under Changning's shocked and disbelieving gaze, he made the decision with great pain.
"Do you think I really don't know whose bloodline you are from?"
"You are nothing but the bastard child of your mother and Xie Huaiyuan!"
"And the reason I can still love you as before, regardless of past grudges, is because Daddy truly loves you."
"But you have done these vicious things again and again. First, you dared to poison the princess and frame that princess. If the princess had not made peace with you, do you think you would still be alive today?"
"Instead of reflecting on your actions at home, you've become increasingly vicious. Now you even dare to curse that noble man without restraint."
"Isn't her status more noble than yours?"
"Why do you have to go against her?"
"She does all the important things, but your vicious and sinister tricks in the inner palace are not even worthy of the noble lady's attention. In front of her, you are nothing but a spoiled clown."
Zhang Tingyu's eyes turned completely cold and cruel: "Changning, Daddy gave you a chance. It's you who didn't know how to cherish it and repeatedly disappointed Daddy."
"I can't let you go on like this."
"Daddy can put aside the past and continue to treat you as his daughter, but you can't harm our entire Zhang family."
"I can't protect you anymore."
"Our father-daughter relationship ends here."
"Someone, send the princess back to the Xie family!"
"Just say that their daughter is no longer under the control of our Zhang family. Send her away!"
Changning cried and refused, kneeling on the ground and knocking his head until it was broken.
"Daddy, you can't be so cruel. Changning only recognizes you as his father. Daddy—"
She didn't admit her mistake.
She just hugged Zhang Tingyu's legs and didn't want to leave.
If she returns to the Zhang family, her identity as an illegitimate child will be completely confirmed.
How can she hold her head up in Nan'an in the future?
She doesn't, she doesn't—
However, Zhang Tingyu was determined to make her suffer this time. He had someone cover Changning's mouth, stuff her into a carriage, and send her to the Xie family.
But he was also afraid that the Xie family would force her to death, so he sent a message to the Xie family: "Tell the Xie family that Changning is the princess's daughter. If she dies inexplicably, our Zhang family will never stand idly by!"
It is said that after Changning was sent to the Xie family, the Xie family settled her in panic and reluctantly.
But she still refused to stop working in the yard all day.
First, she scolded the Xie family for being wishful thinking and said that she, as a princess, would never recognize the Xie family as relatives.
Then she scolded the Zhang family for being cruel and heartless to her.
Finally, he scolded Nangong Qingluo.
At first, the Xie family didn't realize who Nangong Qingluo was.
Then I realized that Nangong Qingluo was the Nangong lady from the Huaxie Restaurant, and later the Princess of Yue.
She might even become the queen of Great Chu in the future, and the entire Xie family instantly felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.
They couldn't hold their heads up in Nan'an because of the Ningyuan Temple scandal. If it happened again because of this little bastard from Changning, their Xie family would be wiped out!
Zhang Tingyu is such a cunning beast.
Knowing that Princess Changning was a restless person, they sent her to the Xie family to cause trouble.
Does he want to force the Xie family into a dead end?
The Xie family knew that the new emperor was a ruthless and decisive man.
So he didn't dare to hesitate and tied Changning up and blocked his mouth.
Then he just informed the Zhang family and hurriedly married her to the Xie family's hometown.
Zhang Tingyu did not intervene in this matter.
He was so busy that he just asked the servants in the mansion to find out what kind of man Changning's husband was, and then he got busy with his own official struggles.
Soon after, I heard that Changning never said anything outrageous again, and was even sent to the countryside quietly along the way.
Zhang Tingyu felt very sad when he heard this.
Did the Xie family drug Changning?
Or a dumb drug?
Whatever it was, their methods were indeed cruel.
"She is the daughter of the Xie family after all."
"But as long as I, Zhang Tingyu, am still alive, I can keep her alive."
"If she can be more content in the future, she can still struggle out of adversity."
"Well, let them be."
From then on, Zhang Tingyu no longer cared about Changning's affairs.
And Changning never returned to Nan'an in his life...
However, even though Zhang Tingyu is now in a high position and has great power, he cannot control the government.
Soon, a situation that gave him a headache arose.
The old guys invited back to the court by the new emperor were really a group of stubborn and restless old men. He would quarrel with them every day.
But Zhang Tingyu also knew in his heart that the new emperor's goal was to make them check and balance each other.
Therefore, he went to court every day with great enthusiasm to argue.
Perhaps, their Great Chu will really have another new situation waiting for the new emperor to return...
However, before Duan Rongshi could return to Mantuo City, the Western Region army had already arrived at the city again.
