Qu Li was taken to the dark room of Cining Palace by Nanny Gong.
Before entering, Madam Gong said sincerely, "Princess, the Queen Mother truly loves you! The last time she plotted against you, she was just trying to bring you and the prince together!"
Qu Li smiled, without a trace of fear or grievance about being locked in a dark room.
"Madame Gong, I know the Empress Dowager has good intentions! But in this world, there are never so many right and wrongs! I just follow my heart."
"But……"
"Madame Gong, there's no need to persuade me anymore! It's me who has failed the Empress Dowager! If I can get into the dark room and let the Empress Dowager vent her anger, that's fine."
After saying that, she didn't even look at Madam Gong again, and walked into the dark room with her back straight.
Standing at the door, Nanny Gong was in a state of confusion.
Her memory still lingered on the time many years ago when Qu Li was found disheveled in the side hall where Xiao Xian was changing clothes at a palace banquet.
At that time, her face was full of confusion and fear.
Comparing her with the current princess, they are completely different people!
Perhaps it is really as the princess just said, there are not so many right and wrong in this world, all you have to do is follow your heart.
The former princess was sincere to Prince Chen, and almost everyone in the capital knew about her enthusiasm.
Now, after being hurt and humiliated repeatedly by the prince, the princess simply withdrew her love for him.
Actually, the princess can’t be blamed!
She shook her head and closed the door of the dark room with a bad taste in her mouth.
Before Qu Li entered, he looked around the dark room.
It was small, windowless, and very depressing.
If candles were burning, the oxygen would probably be exhausted within a day.
Of course, she has space, and there is so much food in the space, so she is not afraid.
After Nanny Gong left, Qu Li entered the space.
Seeing his owner coming, Goudan raised his head, woofed twice, then ran to her legs and rubbed against her.
"You drink so much spiritual spring water all day long. Will it make my space smell like urine?" Qu Li poked its bulging belly.
“Ouch—”
Goudan stared with his round eyes and howled twice in dissatisfaction.
She smiled with her eyes curved, and then looked at the holy fruit again.
The holy fruit blessed by space grows extremely fast, completely subverting the rule of four hundred years of flowering and five hundred years of fruiting.
Goudan ran over, whining.
"I know you didn't do anything sabotage."
“Ouch—”
She couldn't help laughing, so she took out some jerky and fed it.
Nanny Gong reported to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager seemed to have aged more than ten years overnight.
She didn't understand how Qu Li, who obviously loved Axian so much, could be so cruel as to take away all her love for Axian!
"Let her think it over!" She said tiredly, looking at Emperor Kang: "Your Majesty, please persuade the King of Zhongshan again and stop being so unreasonable!"
"I understand!" Emperor Kang felt reluctant, "Don't worry too much, mother."
The key point of this matter has always been Qu Li.
She was unwilling to compromise herself, nor did she want to argue with Rongwei, and Kangdi could not force her to accept all his arrangements.
Changle waited until the palace was locked, but Qu Li still didn't come back.
She was a little anxious, and her right eyelid kept twitching.
I hurried to the inn where Rongwei was staying, but Taji had already packed up and left.
Changle had no choice but to go find the Grand Princess.
"Changle, don't worry!"
The Grand Princess already knew what happened in the palace.
"Mother, how can I not be anxious?" Changle pressed her right eyelid. "I've been feeling uneasy! Isn't it said that the King of Zhongshan is difficult to get along with? Will Li'er suffer any harm?"
"You!" The eldest princess shook her head, her eyes full of helplessness: "Sit down, I'll tell you slowly."
Changle sat down and moved around, feeling very uncomfortable.
"The Empress Dowager does not agree to Qu Li's divorce!"
"She actually brought it up?"
Changle, who was originally sitting unsteadily, suddenly stood up.
It’s over!
This marriage was originally granted by the Empress Dowager.
Li'er is actually challenging the Empress Dowager's authority!
"Otherwise, she would have been back by now!"
Changle tightly grasped the eldest princess's hand, and the corners of her eyes flushed: "Mother, you must help Li'er!"
"If you ask me, don't worry too much."
She didn't think Qu Li was an impulsive person.
There should be some plan, otherwise there would be no head-on confrontation.
"How can I not be worried?"
Living with the king is like living with a tiger!
"I'll go to the palace to inquire about it tomorrow. You go back and have a good rest first."
"The Empress Dowager loves Li'er so much, she will definitely not be willing to punish her."
The Grand Princess was afraid that Changle would worry, so she didn't tell her that Qu Li was locked in the dark room.
In the Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager was in poor spirits and had not eaten much of her dinner.
Matron Gong whispered, "Empress Dowager, please don't worry too much!"
"That dark room is cold, and Li'er..."
"The princess will figure it out!"
"You can go and have a look later." The Queen Mother shook her head again: "Forget it, let's not go and have a look."
The sun slowly rose. Qu Li stayed in the space for the whole night. He had food and drinks. It was a rare moment of relaxation. He felt lazy all over.
Hearing footsteps outside, she touched Goudan's head and quickly left the space.
"princess?"
Not Nanny Gong!
Qu Li frowned.
"Who are you?"
"My maidservant is Lan Ting. The Second Prince asked me to come here."
Qu Li sneered.
This Xiao Ci is omnipresent, even having people around the Empress Dowager.
