Chapter 21 — King, It's Not Done! Princess... Princess has slapped Your Majesty!

But not exposed. Thanh Tran was placed in a small courtyard in the Royal Palace. Three layers of Black Armor guards guard. The man in black was still alive and was escorted to the dungeon. Bui Truong brought gold leaves and old letters to examine the seal. We return to the main courtyard. Just replaced the exterior. Someone from the lobby came to report.

"King."

"The Ta family has sent concubines."

I raised my eyes.

"Lord Xie personally came."

"Says he wants to see the Princess."

Bach Lo smiled coldly.

"Only now do I know the way to beg."

"Have you paid for the goods yet?"

The other person replied:

"Just give me two shop contracts and three chests of silverware."

"The remaining things are said to have not been collected at the moment."

"Then we won't see each other."

The other person was just about to retreat. Tieu Thua Uyen stepped out from behind the screen.

"Let him in."

I look at him.

"Your Majesty wants to see him?"

Tieu Thua Uyen replied:

"Something he owes her."

"It's not just the dowry."

I immediately understood. In old letters. There is mention of the Ta family palace. There are a few things. Finally, you still have to ask clearly right up front. When Lord Ta entered the Royal Palace. Her footsteps were even worse than her face. Just entered the main lobby. He performed the ceremony with Tieu Thua Uyen.

"Your Majesty pays homage to the Royal Family."

Tieu Thua Uyen did not tell him to stand up. Master Xie knelt on the ground. Forehead gradually filled with sweat. A long time later. Tieu Thua Uyen just spoke up.

"Master Xie came today to repay the debt?"

Lord Ta tried to answer:

"The lower officials have tried their best to manage it."

"It's just a huge amount."

"I respectfully request the Princess to give me a few more days."

I sit on one side. Look at the person who always claims to be my father. Every time he taught me in the Ta family palace. Everyone stood from above looking down. And now. He knelt on the ground. It looks much more pleasing to the eye than before.

"Do you still remember Phung Hac Nien?"

Lord Ta's body suddenly stiffened. He raised his head to look at me. Then very quickly he bent down again.

"Phung Hac Nien?"

"An ex from many years ago."

"I don't remember clearly anymore."

I asked again:

"What about Luc Quan?"

His face immediately turned white. Tieu Thua Uyen threw the old prescription down in front of him. The thin piece of paper gently fell to the ground. Lord Ta was as if his throat was cut by a blade. I can't even utter half a word. I spoke up:

"The bowl of calming soup my mother used to drink."

"Do you really not know?"

Lord Ta's lips trembled.

"Linh Nghi."

"It's all because of my stepmother..."

"Father."

I interrupted him.

"It's come to this."

"Do you still want to blame it all on a woman?"

His shoulders slumped. The whole person seems to have aged a lot. A long time later. He said hoarsely:

"I never wanted her to die."

I burst out laughing.

"The poison has entered the bowl."

"And yet father still says he doesn't want it?"

He hastily said:

"The Tham family said that the medicine only made her weak."

"As long as she stops meddling in my marriage."

"No longer blocking the Ta family's way."

"I didn't expect her to die."

The main hall fell silent. Bach Lo was so angry that his whole body trembled. Even calmer than I thought. A person who no longer has integrity. Even when admitting guilt. It can also be as light as a feather.

"Before mother passed away."

"Have you ever asked your father to invite a doctor?"

Lord Ta closed his eyes. I stood up. Step by step come before him.

"The one who begged."

"But father did not invite."

"Because the doctor only needs to come."

"What's in the medicine bowl can't be hidden anymore."

Lord Ta suddenly raised his head. His eyes were filled with fear.

"How do you know?"

I stared at him.

"Because I remember."

"I knelt outside the study."

"Please father save mother."

"You asked someone to carry me again."

"Speaker."

"What do children know?"

Lord Ta's face was completely bloodless. I mean every word.

"I don't understand."

"But now."

"I understand."

Tieu Thua Uyen calmly spoke:

"Bui Truong history."

Bui Truong entered.

"King."

"The Ta family plotted to harm the main family."

"Appropriation of dowry."

"Colluding with the Tham family."

"It's also related to the old case in the palace."

"Deliver to Kinh Trieu palace."

Lord Ta suddenly rushed towards me.

"Linh Nghi!"

"I am your father!"

The Black Armor Guard immediately pinned him down. I bowed my head to look at him.

"Since you nodded."

"Let mother drink that bowl of medicine."

"You are no longer my father."

When Lord Ta was dragged out. The mouth kept calling my name. That call gradually faded away. Being swallowed by the great gate of the Royal Palace. I stood in the middle of the main hall. The palm of my hand is cold.
