"Your Majesty, I don't dare." "I was orphaned at a young age and was taken care of by Ninh Vuong Palace." "I only consider Vuong Palace as my home." Her tears fell on the tiled floor. "If because of this goddess I miss my brother's fate, I would like to leave Ninh Vuong Palace." Ta Truong Tu tilted his head to look at her. His hand moved slightly. But in the end... Still didn't reach out to help her. Everyone in the palace was watching. In this life... He can't arbitrarily protect her like before. The Emperor turned to look at Ta Truong Tu. "You speak." Ta Truong Tu clasped his hands and bowed. "Van Hanh is just my younger sister." "After I marry Tham Thi, I will automatically take charge of the inner courtyard." I spoke: "Your Majesty, I have a few things to ask." The Emperor lightly waved his hand. "Go ahead and ask." I looked at Ta Van Hanh. "Have you ever used the price tag of Ninh Vuong Palace's mother-in-law?" Her face immediately turned pale. go. "That's because brother loves me and my daughter's weak body." "So, has Miss Ta ever managed the internal accounts of the Vuong Palace?" Her fingertips tightened. "My goddess only helps brother share the affairs in the palace." "At the banquets of the royal family, has Miss Ta ever sat in Princess Than's seat?" The tears on her face suddenly stopped. Several female relatives of the family looked at each other. At that moment, Tieu Kien Vi took out a notebook from his sleeve. "Your Majesty." "This is a book that records the foreign relations of Ninh Vuong Palace over the past year." "In it, there are thirty-seven gifts that were received in the name of Miss Ta, and then used the treasury of Ninh Vuong Palace to return the favor." "There is also a book recording seats at the royal family's banquets." "Miss Ta has sat in the mother's position three times." Ta Van Hanh suddenly said. suddenly raised his head. "Lord Tieu, I don't have those thoughts." Tieu Kien Vi calmly replied: "I only record the incident." "I don't record people's hearts." The Emperor's face immediately sank. Ta Truong Tu quickly clasped his hands. "Your Majesty, Van Hanh does not understand etiquette." "I was negligent." I bowed to pay my respects. "Your Majesty." "I do not dare to marry you." "If I step foot into Ninh Vuong Palace, outsiders will only think that Your Highness Ninh Vuong has truly returned to his heart." "But a Royal Palace has two female masters..." "I cannot handle it." The words just ended. The temple is so quiet that you can even hear the sound of incense falling on the incense burner. The emperor looked at Ta Truong Tu. "When the royal historian presented his sermon to you, you said you wanted to marry a concubine to stabilize people's hearts." "Now it seems..." "You just want to marry a royal concubine to cover up bad things." Ta Truong Tu immediately knelt down. "I don't dare." Ta Van Hanh cried while kneeling and took two steps forward. "Your Majesty, it's all my daughter's fault, it has nothing to do with my brother." The emperor didn't even look at her. "My orders." "Temporarily postpone the marriage." "Ta Van Hanh immediately moved out of Ninh Vuong Palace and assigned Princess An Binh Truong to teach the dharma." Ta Van Hanh's whole body went limp. Ta Truong Tu raised his head. "Your Majesty, Van Hanh has lived in the Royal Palace since childhood, now suddenly moving away, I'm afraid..." The Emperor coldly interrupted. "If you can't bear it." "Then go with her to the Princess Truong Palace to learn the rules." Ta Truong Tu immediately fell silent. When Ta Van Hanh was helped up by the palace staff, she finally looked towards me. In those eyes... There was no longer any weakness. Only hatred remains. I lowered my eyes. As she passed me, she lowered her voice: "Tham Phu Ninh, you will regret it." I didn't even look at her. "Miss Ta..." "Miss Ta, first learn who has the right to enter the main gate."... After Ta Van Hanh moved out of Ninh Vuong Palace, the rumors in the capital still did not subside. Some people say I'm jealous. Some people say I still have it

Before marrying into the Ninh Vuong palace, the Vuong family's younger sisters were forced to leave. Some people say that the Tham family's daughter is too dignified and unsuitable to be Ninh Vuong Phi. When my mother heard those words, she became impatient and wanted to tell me several times to go to the palace to seek love. My parents didn't force me. Because the evidence presented by Tieu Kien Vi is still placed before the court, no one dares to say I am unreasonable anymore. On the fifth day after Ta Van Hanh was taken to Princess An Binh Truong's palace, I received an anonymous letter. The letter scolded me for my cruel heart. Scolded me for taking away Ta Truong Tu, and even refused to leave a way to live for Ta Van Hanh. The handwriting was deliberately disguised. But in the lower right corner of the paper there was a faint scent. That is the scent of gardenia that Ta Van Hanh often uses. I took the letter away, then gave it to Xuan Duong. "Bring it to the Imperial Palace." Xuan Duong was surprised. "Didn't the lady burn it?" "No." "She wrote..." "It should be for someone to see." The next day, new rumors appeared in the city. People said that Ta Van Hanh was not used to the water and soil in Princess Truong's palace, and cried every night until he fainted. It was said that Ninh Vuong wanted to visit several times but was stopped by Princess Truong's palace. On the fifth night... Ta Truong Tu finally left. In my previous life, I knew which path he would take. On the street behind Ninh Vuong Palace, there is a small alley leading to the west side door of the Princess Truong Palace. It was Ta Van Hanh who told us that path. At that time, she hugged Ta Truong Tu's cloak, smiled and said: "Little brother, if big brother wants to see you, there will always be a way." And now... I draw that path on paper. Then sent it to Tieu Kien Vi. Midnight. The spring rain has just ended.
