He could tell a person's character from their facial features.

The Emperor was fatuous, and n.o.ble Consort Lin was arrogant. If they knew Qi Yu would be the leader of the four kingdoms, they would definitely spoil him!

Of course, if he hadn't said those words, the Emperor wouldn't pamper him like that, and Qi Yu might not have become such an idiot…

“State Preceptor! You're really cruel to me!” n.o.ble Consort Lin closed her eyes.

More than ten years ago, she was still a young girl, though she had married the Emperor two years before then and had given birth to the third prince.

However…

Her heart was still young.

In the Imperial Palace, when she first met the handsome State Preceptor, she had a crush on him and she even thought if he was willing to take her away from the Imperial Palace, she would give up the high position and great wealth she owned and spend the rest of her life with him.

But unexpectedly, this man flatly refused her!

For this, she turned her love to hatred! She tried to frame the Empress, Qi Ling's mother, for committing adultery with the State Preceptor. Then the furious Emperor would kill them both!

However, State Preceptor found out about her little moves, and… resolved this crisis easily!

From then on, she knew that every move of hers was exposed to the man's eyes, so she had to give up on getting revenge!

As she grew older, she became old, while the State Preceptor was still so handsome. She knew she was no longer worthy of the State Preceptor, so she never bothered him again…

She never expected that the State Preceptor held a grudge against her, and set such a trap for her!

At this moment, two guards walked up to n.o.ble Consort Lin, propped her limp body up and were going to go out of the study.

However, when they only walked two steps, Qi Ling stopped them.

“I still have a bill to settle with n.o.ble Consort Lin!” His eyes were gradually filled with killing intents, “I wonder if n.o.ble Consort Lin can explain to me how you mobilized those heavenly G.o.d-level spirit cultivators. To pave the way for Qi Yu, they almost killed all my men, right?”

n.o.ble Consort Lin shuddered. She didn't deny what she had done in the face of the State Preceptor because she was really scared of him.

But she couldn't admit to what she had done to Qi Ling!

“Qi Ling, you're trying to frame me. I've never done anything like that!”

“Really?” Qi Ling sneered, “It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. I know you did it! I don't know how my father will punish you, but I'll never let you off!”

As soon as he said this, the whole room quieted down. After quite a while, his voice resounded again.

“Guards, drag this woman down and break her body into pieces! Thrust her body into a statue, and make her kneel before the grave of her victims forever!”

“No!” “Qi Ling screamed shrilly, “Qi Ling, you can't do this. I'm n.o.ble Consort. You can't do this to me.”

With that, she shook the guards' hands loose and rushed towards the Emperor.

“Your Majesty, help me. I know I was wrong. Please ask Second Prince to let me off… ”

The Emperor looked at n.o.ble Consort Lin coldly, and his eyes were full of anger and hatred, “You wanted to cuckold me! How do you still have the cheek to ask me to save you? I've shown mercy to you by not killing you with my own hands. What are you waiting for? Take this woman away. I don't want to see her again!”
