"But I fear, I fear that if the Emperor bestows too much favor on my father, he might become arrogant and thus betray the Emperor's grace. In such a case, I would be ashamed to face the Emperor, and the Emperor's wisdom would be tarnished. Therefore, I earnestly beg the Emperor not to reward my father."
The Emperor, holding the hand of Princess Consort Gao with a complex expression, sighed after a while, "My beloved consort, you now possess the virtues of a wise empress." From this single sentence, it was clear how satisfied the Emperor was with Princess Consort Gao.
Princess Consort Gao blushed slightly and lowered her head, "I merely have a bit of self-awareness and a foolish heart. How could I be worthy of the virtues of a wise empress? The Emperor truly overpraises me."
The Emperor laughed heartily, pulling Princess Consort Gao into his embrace, "If my beloved consort is foolish, then there are no wise people in this harem. You are truly genuine to me."
