Chapter 338
Seeing Miss Liu slowly kneeling down in front of him, King Zhao's face was full of concern and dissuasion, although he had no intention of going forward to help her.
"Miss Liu, why is it so? My palace never treats women harshly. You are really worrying too much."
When others saw this scene, they were a little surprised and thought that King Zhao was bullying the girl.
But after hearing what King Zhao said, he suddenly understood.
"Please rest assured, Miss Liu. King Zhao has always been a good person and will not treat you harshly."
King Lie smiled and said, "Miss Liu, since you are so worried, why don't you just marry me? I have always been kind to women..."
"If Miss Liu is unwilling, why not find someone else? There are many young talents here who are still unmarried."
The old emperor looked at Miss Liu and said, "You don't want to? If you don't want to, forget it. Even if you are a royal family, there is absolutely no reason to force others."
Although he said that, he was already very dissatisfied in his heart.
This marriage was proposed by your family, so why is there trouble again?
An emperor would naturally not lose his temper with a young girl, so Minister Liu was forced to accept countless death threats.
Minister Liu had no idea what was going on, so he quickly explained, "Your Majesty, I definitely didn't mean that. I have always admired Prince Zhao, so it's true!"
Miss Liu didn't expect that King Zhao, a man, could actually watch such a beautiful woman like her actually kneel down like that.
But this was not the time to think about this, she quickly said, "Your Majesty, it's me--"
She hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "I was thinking about what the Fourth Young Master said just now. The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became. What if Prince Zhao's Mansion really couldn't afford to support him?
If the Zhao Palace is really in such trouble, I am willing to give half of my dowry to the prince to help him out of his immediate crisis."
After hearing this, everyone was shocked!
This woman is really affectionate.
King Lie was so shocked that he blurted out: "You gave him money and you even kneeled down to beg him to accept it?"
Is this reasonable?
Miss Liu's face froze: "..."
She finally nodded firmly: "Yes, I am worried that the prince will not accept it."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the man in front of her with her beautiful eyes, pleadingly, hoping that he would not expose her.
King Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Miss Liu, that is your dowry. I cannot use it. You should take it back!"
Now, people looked at King Zhao less as a scumbag. This man still had some shame and did not ask for a dowry.
"Miss Liu, if King Zhao doesn't want it, forget it."
"That's right, I can't tell why he's so poor."
"It should be that he doesn't want to raise the child, Miss Lou Liu, you see, he is such a heartless and ungrateful person that he doesn't even want to raise the woman who gave birth to his child.
To be honest, I am the best. I have raised all eight children well. Maybe one day I can have eight more."
After Prince Lie finished speaking, he looked at Concubine Zeng who was following Prince Lie's wife, his eyes full of regret. Why didn't the children come yet?
Is it because he didn't work hard enough?
Feeling King Lie's obvious realization, Zeng Cheng felt a sense of resistance. This was outside, what did he think of himself?
If only this damned King Lie disappeared.
After noticing this thought, Zeng Cheng knew that he would not be able to fulfill his wish, so he decided to...
If the next child is not King Lie's child, he will be a green-headed fly and the one who is sucked in raising a child.
No, no, no. After Zeng Cheng reacted, his face suddenly changed.
When did his means of revenge against a man become bearing someone else's child for him?
What’s the difference between this and those vulgar women?
Here, King Zhao listened to everyone's advice and said, "Miss Liu, if you have someone you like, just tell me, I will not stop you."
Who knew that Miss Liu was determined to get married: "Your Majesty, my father has betrothed me to you, and I will never marry anyone else!"
"That's what Miss Liu wants."
King Zhao stopped trying to persuade him.
On the other side, Ruirui considerately sent her sisters back and then returned to her room.
He was lying on the table, holding a brush in his little hand, painting on the rice paper with great interest.
Hongfeng took a look and thought the child’s drawing was very imaginative.
She didn't dare to look at it any longer, lest the young master catch her and ask her what the painting was about.
After all, the master often does this when he paints!
She was not happy when she guessed wrong.
Ruirui was painting seriously, so Hongfeng tiptoed to the door of the room to see why Ruyi and another maid had not come back yet after going out to fetch the meal.
Suddenly, a maid ran over with an anxious look on her face: "Sister, go check on Sister Ruyi! She's fighting with someone!"
"what?"
Hong Feng's face changed. How could they have a conflict with Ruyi, as they were bringing their young master with them?
What if something happens...
Hongfeng was extremely anxious.
She turned her head to look at the door, and the little maid hurriedly urged: "Sister Hongfeng, hurry up, there is no time to delay."
"I have to tell the Fourth Young Master that we can't leave him here alone."
The maid urged her repeatedly, and seeing that she was still dawdling, she couldn't help but said, "Hey, Sister Hongfeng, how about this? I'll stay here for you for a while.
I can change it back when you come back. Anyway, I’m just standing outside the door, so be careful and no one will notice me.”
"That won't do. I have to tell the young master—"
"Sister Hongfeng, don't worry—"
Just as the two were pushing and shoving each other, the door creaked open.
There was a short, stout child inside. Ruirui opened her big eyes, full of curiosity: "Where are you going? Let's go together, hurry up!"
As he said that, he raised his hands to Hongfeng: "Sister Hongfeng, hold me, let's run faster, or we will miss it if we are late."
Before Hong Feng had time to start thinking, his brain had already reflexively picked up the little boy.
Another maid couldn't help but persuade him: "Fourth Master, it's just some friction between the maids, there's no need to go over and see"
Ruirui kept urging: "Let's go and take a look. Stop talking here. If we continue talking, the daylily will get cold. Let's go!"
The maid wanted to persuade her further, but she was not as eloquent as Ruirui.
The maid could only hope that Hong Feng was reliable, but Hong Feng also helped her young master.
"It'll be fine. The young master likes to be lively, so it's okay to go and take a look."
Hong Feng hugged the soft little cub tightly. He was already used to this situation. Anyway, when he was in the mansion before, the master often brought the little master to watch the fun.
With that, the master and servant left quickly.
The maid stood there, wondering whether her mission of leading away the maidservant around the Fourth Young Master had been accomplished.
As a result, the master and servant who walked a few meters away shouted at him: "Don't hesitate, tell us where the location is, and lead the way!"
