After coaxing Qi Wu away, Zhou Lingdu breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he had been moved, and he didn't want to do anything too ugly.
But I don’t know who told Qi Le about Zhou Lingdu’s hidden beauty in the golden house.
Upon hearing the news, Qi Le smashed a tea cup. She was a legitimate daughter, and the education she received since childhood prevented her from questioning Zhou Lingdu directly.
But she is also an angry person. She doesn't like Qi Wu, not only because Qi Wu is evidence of his father's betrayal of his mother, but also because of Qi Wu's mother.
That bitch who wanted to climb into the Taiwei's bed tried her best to save Qi Wu, which made her mother sad for a long time.
Although the Taiwei had promised her that she would be the only one in this life, she thought it was impossible at first.
But the Taiwei had practiced it for many years, which also made her greedy.
Therefore, Qi Wu's birth meant that the Taiwei had betrayed their oath.
Qi Le has not liked Qi Wu since she was a child, and now she hates her even more. Since the prince is still interested in her, she can't stay.
She sent her confidants to assassinate Qi Wu, which would inevitably break the relationship between the prince and her.
Because Qi Le always knew that what she wanted was just the position of Crown Princess. As for the Crown Prince, she really liked him. After all, he was handsome, rich and powerful.
Apart from marrying the right person, the only choice for a noble daughter from aristocratic family is to marry the royal family.
It's not impossible to marry low, but Qi Le doesn't want to. She wants to marry the prince and gain power so that she can do what she wants and protect her family.
Even though his father was a Taiwei, as an official in the court, there were always a few enemies. Apart from the royal family who could protect his family, Qi Le didn't think that the nobles from other aristocratic families could.
Qing Yan also told Chu Li about Qi Le sending people to assassinate Qi Wu.
"Master, do you want to stop it?"
After Chu Li took a sip of the health-preserving tea, she said slowly, "No, Qi Wu still has good luck, so he won't die."
Qing Yan nodded, "I understand, Master."
Chu Li actually didn't care about Qi Wu's life or death.
She was about to die herself, so how could she care about other people's lives?
So, it depends on her own luck!
Qi Wu's luck was indeed good. The assassin was relatively stupid. She just hid in the water tank and those people couldn't find her.
Someone came to kill her, so Qi Wu went to Zhou Lingdu crying.
"Your Highness, there are people who want to kill me. They are holding big knives and covering their faces. You almost couldn't see me."
Qi Wu threw herself into Zhou Lingdu's arms and cried, which made him feel a little distressed. It is natural for a beautiful woman to cry, which is pitiful.
"Okay, don't cry, I will help you find out."
Hearing this, Qi Wu stopped crying. She looked up at him and said happily, "Really?"
"Really, don't worry Qi Wu, I will protect you, but I can't marry you."
"Why? Doesn't His Highness also like me?"
Zhou Lingdu sighed and murmured to himself, "Qi Wu, I can't marry you unless you are willing to be my concubine."
The assassination of Qi Wu really made Zhou Lingdu feel a little uncomfortable, and she was indeed an interesting woman, but he couldn't marry her.
In addition to Qi Le being his savior, Qi Le also has a good family background.
Although his position as prince is very stable, he cannot marry a woman who cannot help him.
Therefore, even if Qi Le is not his savior, he plans to marry her.
As for Qi Wu, he could only say sorry to her.
Concubine, her heart ached when she heard that Zhou Lingdu could only give her the position of concubine, but she had no other support except Zhou Lingdu.
Qi Wu felt a little aggrieved, but said firmly, "Your Highness, for your sake, I am willing to suffer some grievances. I can be a concubine."
