Hearing her words, Li Tianze coughed.
Arguing with a child, such an act made him feel somewhat guilty.
However, if he didn't present himself with enough dignity, how could he use his status to overpower others?
Generally, when people saw him not speaking, they would become terrified, wondering if they had done something wrong.
The ones with less courage would even kneel directly.
But Qi Yu, her face showed neither fear nor any intention to kneel.
She just stood quietly, looking quite brave.
Moreover, ever since those ugly scars on her face had faded, the advantage of her appearance became fully evident.
Standing beside his imperial son, she didn't seem out of place at all.
Li Tianze realized his heart had begun to lean towards her, and immediately stopped himself.
He spoke in a calm voice, "Just now, was it you who schemed against Prince Ming'an?"
Qi Yu slightly raised her eyebrows, not expecting him to still be concerned about this matter.
