"Alright." Feng Tianyu was thrilled with Feng Ruqing's response and ignored Liu Rong's protests.
"Get the imperial chef to serve plain congee."
"Your Majesty, how about the pork knuckles?" Liu Rong's face stiffened. She tightened her grip on the silk scarf.
"Noble Consort Rong, didn't you hear what Qing'er said?" She wants plain congee." Feng Tianyu's face darkened.
"Your Majesty, please have mercy. I'm just sympathizing with Qing'er." Engulfed with panic, Liu Rong quickly answered.
Feng Ruqing had completely changed after she woke up. Previously, if the emperor stopped her from taking meat, she would throw a tantrum. Presently, she listened to the emperor obediently.
"Noble Consort Rong, you have crossed the line. Don't visit Qing'er these few days," Feng Tianyu snarled.
Liu Rong had always been an eyesore to the emperor and he only met her because of Qing'er.
"Your Majesty." Liu Rong raised her head and gazed at the emperor innocently.
Liu Rong was in her thirties. Despite her age, she still looked stunning and retained her graceful bearing. However, Feng Tianyu was not the least bit attracted to her. There was only Feng Ruqing in his eyes.
"Qing'er, I am afraid Noble Consort Rong would bring you some greasy food. You need to rest. I don't want Noble Consort Rong to bother you during this period. Alright?"
Liu Rong bit her lip as she fixed her gaze upon Feng Ruqing anxiously.
"Sure." Feng Ruqing merely snorted.
Previously, the princess was such a fool. She had broken many people's hearts including her kin from her maternal family just because of Liu Rong. Now, she would never be the same. Since the emperor stopped Liu Rong from visiting her, it was a great delight to her. She did not want to be bothered.
"Your Majesty." An imperial guard rushed into the room and kneeled down in respect.
"What's the matter?" The emperor's gaze swept past the imperial guard as he asked.
"Your Majesty, Young Master Liu and Lady Tan have been kneeling before the imperial study for two hours."
"Pfft. Ask them to go on until Qing'er forgives them."
Feng Ruqing had nearly lost her life because of these two. The emperor had shown much mercy for not killing the both of them because of the chancellor and grand tutor.
It was lucky that Feng Ruqing had woken up. Otherwise, the emperor would not let them off that easily.
"Father, are they Liu Yuchen and Tan Shuangshuang?" Slightly startled, Feng Ruqing asked.
"Qing'er, Liu Yuchen went too far. He is looking for his own demise. Don't worry about him." Feng Tianyu furrowed his brows as he comforted Feng Ruqing.
Feng Ruqing was his most beloved daughter but how did Liu Yuchen treat her? Not only did Feng Ruqing have to deal with overwhelming loneliness, but she also nearly lost her life because of him.
