The emperor waited for him to finish his kowtow before he said, "Prime Minister Lan, your daughter is innocent and carefree but happens to be too straightforward, as a tree would not grow up straight without chopping it, she may not be a useful person if proper discipline is not put in place."
This meant she lacked discipline, and the Prime Minister Lan understood it clearly. He felt slightly bad and quickly pulled down his daughter to kowtow to give her thanks again, "Thank you for Your Majesty's teaching, I’ll definitely discipline her so that she knows how to respect others…"
The little crisis had ended.
Lan Zhaoer no longer dared to cause any trouble anymore. Meanwhile, the other ladies also knew that the emperor was actually supporting Gu Xijiu, though it felt unfair, they did not dare to say anything else.
The emperor looked at Gu Xijiu, "Xijiu, you’re entering the Dark Forest tomorrow, how are your preparations coming along?"
