Zhou Ruo was not surprised at all when he heard his father's insults.

After all, this was a very common thing in the past.

After she entered the palace and became favored, the Zhou family's respect for her was all fake and false. They just wanted to gain benefits from her.

Even though he knew it clearly, Zhou Ruo still felt chilled.

She closed her eyes, pointed at the door, and said to Zhou's father, "Get out."

But Zhou's father refused to leave. He pointed at Zhou Ruo's nose and cursed: "You unlucky star, if you do anything to bring trouble to the Zhou family, I will not let you go."

After that, he reached out to pull Zhou Ruo's arm and said, "What on earth did you do? Now hurry up and admit your mistake to His Majesty. Maybe His Majesty will let you go for the time being."

Zhou Ruo tried hard to shake off his grip but failed, and shouted loudly: "Let me go, I won't go!"

"No, you must go," Zhou's father said seriously, "You have to tell His Majesty that no matter what happened, it was all your fault and you will bear the consequences alone. It has nothing to do with the Zhou family."

"As long as you apologize like this, His Majesty will give you a way out."

Zhou Ruo was extremely disappointed and shouted, "Don't be naive. His Majesty will not let me go. Let me go!"

"Don't you know what kind of temper His Majesty has? No one can change what he has decided. If you ask me to beg for mercy, it will only anger him, and your Zhou family will die even faster."

Father Zhou paused, turned around and looked at Zhou Ruo, his brows tightly furrowed.

Zhou Ruo thought her words had worked, and her father finally gave up the idea of ​​dragging her to Mo Xiao to apologize, so she struggled with her arms a few times: "Let me go, you..."

"Go find Concubine Chen," Father Zhou stared at Zhou Ruo, "Go find Concubine Chen and ask for mercy."

Zhou Ruo looked at his father in shock, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.

Father Zhou said seriously: "His Majesty dotes on Concubine Chen, and everyone in the world knows it. Go and ask Concubine Chen to whisper in His Majesty's ear. His Majesty will definitely give you a way out, and give our Zhou family a way out."

"Yes, go and ask Concubine Chen."

When Zhou Ruo heard this, he struggled even harder and shouted, "Let me go! You want me to beg Concubine Chen? It's absolutely impossible!"

"Why not? Aren't you very good to Concubine Chen? You started helping her when she entered the palace, and you sent expensive gifts to Lan Yin Palace like water. Even so, you still haven't established a relationship with Concubine Chen? How can you be such a loser!"

"Don't even think about it. It's impossible. I won't go."

Seeing her struggling so hard, Father Zhou subconsciously raised his hand and slapped her, saying loudly, "If you were as hardworking as Concubine Chen and could win the favor of His Majesty, you wouldn't be begging anyone today, but she would be begging you. But you are a waste, you have given birth to a child, but you still can't win the heart of His Majesty."

Zhou Ruo felt as if he was pricked by a needle. He covered half of his cheek, his eyes numb with pain.

Zhou's father's lips opened and closed, and hurtful words came out of his mouth one after another.

Zhou Ruo's ears were buzzing for a while. Then she suddenly stood up, raised her hand and slapped Zhou's father in the face. Zhou's father's voice stopped abruptly and he looked at Zhou Ruo in disbelief.

"How dare you!" Zhou Ruo stared at Zhou's father and said sternly, "How dare you commit treason?"

Father Zhou opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word. He just looked at Zhou Ruo in shock.
