At the gate of Zhou Ruo's palace, Zhou's father wiped the sweat from his forehead nervously and waited anxiously.

He hasn't seen Zhou Ruo for a long time.

Since the sudden death of Madam Zhou last time, the status of the Zhou family has plummeted, and their status in the court has been getting worse day by day. Many people have taken advantage of the situation and ridiculed him openly and secretly. As a relative of the imperial concubine, he ended up like this. How could people not talk about him behind his back?

However, Zhou Ruo did not have a good life in the Zhou family and had a rift with them. He asked for a meeting many times but was rejected by the other party. He could not find a way to make up for the relationship.

Just when he was worried and didn't know what to do, Zhou Ruo, who had not contacted them before, took the initiative to contact them, which made him ecstatic.

With the support of the imperial concubine, why should they worry that their Zhou family can't make a comeback? What's more, the second prince is deeply loved by the queen mother and has a promising future. As the mother's family of the second prince, the status of their Zhou family will also rise accordingly.

Father Zhou had beautiful thoughts. Although he was anxiously waiting, his heart was full of hope.

After a while, the palace gate opened. Cuiping glanced at Father Zhou and said calmly, "Master Zhou, please come in."

Father Zhou was somewhat dissatisfied with the attitude of the maid, thinking that she was too high up and disrespectful to him. But after all, this was someone close to the imperial concubine, and Father Zhou's relationship with the imperial concubine had finally turned around, so he didn't want to cause any more trouble. So, he just glanced at Cuiping coldly and walked into the yard.

Cuiping had served in the palace for so long that she was very sensitive to other people's looks. She noticed it the first time Zhou's father looked at her. Cuiping couldn't help but roll her eyes and said coldly, "You really think you are the father-in-law of the emperor? Only our queen can use you."

Father Zhou was walking in front and didn't hear her muttering. He didn't think that a palace maid would have the guts to talk about her master.

When Zhou's father entered the yard, he saw Zhou Ruo sitting on a chair in the yard, frowning slightly, and looking unhappy.

Father Zhou immediately stood up straight, walked over quickly, and saluted humbly: "Your humble servant pays respect to Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine. May Your Majesty be blessed with good health."

Zhou Ruo came to his senses, looked up at his father's servile appearance, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

The father who was once high and mighty and unwilling to even look at her, can only bow down in front of her now.

What bent his spine? It was power and interests.

If she, Zhou Ruo, had not been lucky enough to catch the emperor's eye and become the imperial concubine, she could guarantee that Zhou's father would never even look at her.

Everything is just for power.

Zhou Ruo lowered her head, adjusted the hem of her skirt, and said calmly, "Get up."

Father Zhou stood up and looked at Zhou Ruo with a flattering smile on his face.

Zhou Ruo didn't even look at him the whole time, he just asked, "How's it going?"

"Don't worry, your majesty. They have been sent out of the city as you instructed." Father Zhou arrived quickly.

Zhou Ruo frowned and looked up at his father: "Just send him out of the city?"

Father Zhou was stunned and asked in surprise, "Didn't you order it, Madam?"

Zhou Ruo was already gritting his teeth: "I asked you to get rid of them and never let them fall into the hands of others. How did you do it?"

Zhou's father said as a matter of course: "The person has been sent out of the city. He will never come back in this life. No one can find him."
