At this point, Night Emperor Shang was already speechless.

"But that shouldn't be the case, right? "Although you do hate it, but you still refuse to save a life like this, right?"

Shui icily gazed at Night Emperor Shang and asked.

"At that time, it was Die'er who touched my acupoints and jumped down. At the time I didn't understand why she did it. But now, I understand. I suppose I could remember her? Even if you cannot be the person you love the most, you still have to be the person you hate the most. "

As Nighttime's words fell, his face no longer had the slightest trace of a smile. This was the first time Shui Jiusheng had seen Nightmare in such a state.

Perhaps, when Die'er met Ye Huang all those years ago, he was like this?

Back then, Night Emperor Shang was also not as crafty as he is now. Back then, Night Emperor Yan was still very young and immature.

"I'm suddenly a bit curious." Shui began to laugh leisurely.

"Hm!" Night Emperor Shang didn't understand.

"I'm very curious about your appearances back then." It's a pity we didn't meet you earlier. " Shui icily gazed at Night Emperor Shang, and said indifferently.

He didn't expect Shui Ruo to say this, so he couldn't help but blush.

"I'm lucky you didn't see what I looked like back then." Night Emperor Shang's voice was very soft, but Shui Ruo listened to him attentively, somewhat playfully looking at him.

"In the past, I was a bad guy. In comparison, the Night Emperor's cultivator from back then was no different from now. The empress was envious of her brilliance, and even envied her for not having such a child. Regardless of whether it was swordsmanship or anything else, he was adept at everything. However, he would always remain indifferent. Wearing the ghost mask makes you look like a little Asura. "

As Nightmare Emperor spoke to here, he couldn't help but laugh, "Do you know? In the past, he had done the most classic thing, which was scaring his child when his mother was by the side of the road. If you continued to cry and Prince Shuro came over, he would really dismount and walk over, then give the child a string of candied fruits. It scared the children into crying. I just feel that the child won't ever want to eat candied fruits in his entire life, right? "

As he spoke, he laughed loudly.

The corner of Shui You's mouth twitched slightly. He didn't know why, but he always felt that the Night Emperor cultivator at that time was very adorable.

Maybe he just wanted the kid to think he wasn't scary? The result was the opposite.

Just like now, he didn't really know how to talk. Always clumsy.

He was clearly sincere, yet he acted as if he had planned it all out. He was a thankless man.

Along the way, they chatted and laughed, and soon, the two of them returned to the place where the carriage was, and got on it together.

Sitting in the carriage, both of them stopped talking.

By the time the two of them had returned to the palace, it was already the middle of the night. Night Emperor Shang brought water with him as he leisurely entered the mansion through the back door. After sending her back to her room, he left.

Because he had been riding in the car all day, the water was long and very tiring, so he went to sleep early. However, what she didn't know was that on the second day, an earth-shattering change had occurred to her.

Of course, this was something to wait for later.

Morning was the most tiring time for those who worked hard. However, for the ministers of the imperial government, this morning was the most exciting.

The reason?

The crown prince had returned!

For some unknown reason, the crown prince had rushed into the city at dawn and then? There was no 'then'.

Although the Crown Prince hadn't done anything yet, those with brains knew that he was going to end the affair between the Crown Princess and Shui Yuehan.

The water was in a deep slumber for a whole day, probably for the crown prince's return.

Such a farce was not normally seen. Thus, early in the morning, the ministers were waiting at the main palace hall.

However, it was a pity that none of the protagonists had come.

At the same time, in the queen's palace.

Just as they were having their breakfast, the empress wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and raised her head to look at the silent Night Emperor Yan. "Speak, why are you looking for me?"

"The Queen Mother should be very clear, right?" Night Emperor Yan looked at the Queen and said indifferently.

Hearing this, the empress raised an eyebrow, "Know what?"

"Know what I want to say." The Night Emperor's words were direct.

"This, this one really doesn't know. What? Are you really busy? This truly makes one's heart hurt. I thought you missed me so after you returned, you came to my bedroom without stopping to pay your respects. " The empress made a face.

"Everyone knows about it already, but the Queen Mother still continues to beat around the bush. Is it interesting?" The Night Emperor looked at the empress, not planning on continuing to circle around her.

"Then, mother will also ask you this question, is that woman really worth it for you to come to see mother?" The empress's words were straightforward, and after she finished speaking, her eyes locked onto Emperor Ye Yan's.

Hearing this, Night Emperor Yan went silent for a moment before saying, "I just wish for justice."

"What a joke!" I will give her justice? Then, who will be the one to give justice to my unborn grandson? Who is going to give the Crown Princess justice? That's your legal wife. "

The empress's voice was cold.

Hearing that, Night Emperor Yan let out a cold laugh, "She? That woman needs justice too? I was going to get even with her! "

"Calculate?" What is it? " The Queen did not understand.

Upon hearing this, Night Emperor Yan suddenly laughed, "Imperial Mother still doesn't know, right? All these years, I have never touched her. "

Never touched... Never? Touch?

The empress was stupefied, completely stupefied.

He even forgot to eat the grapes that he had just placed in his mouth.

What, what is he talking about?

What did he mean by never touching it before? Uh, no, it gives me a headache.

In that moment, all sorts of emotions flashed through the empress's mind, until she could only stand there stupidly.

"Although it is very excessive, but mother, this son has indeed not touched her. For so many years, this son has always had a single person in his heart, so he has never felt anything from others. All these years, Shangguan Yun was just an empty princess consort. " Night Emperor Yan said calmly.

"Wait, wait? "You, you didn't touch her. What about her child?" The empress was dumbfounded. He only felt that his entire being was in a bad mood. Her son was wearing a green hat, but she didn't know about it?

"That woman's child, how would I know where it came from? However, since the child in that woman's stomach isn't mine, then I can make the water long and innocent, right? Anyways, Shangguan Yun deserves to die a thousand times for her crimes. " The Night Emperor's attitude was casual. Speaking of Shangguan Yun, it was as if she had nothing to do with him.

But when the empress heard this, she got angry.

"No!" Shangguan Yun could not die no matter what! "I don't care what mistakes she has made, and I don't care how angry you are at the moment. You can solve this matter privately, but to the outside world, it must be Shui You's fault, it's not Shangguan Yun's fault."

The Queen's attitude was decisive.

Upon hearing this, Night Emperor Yan's brows furrowed, "Imperial Mother, you mean to say that you want her to be the scapegoat for that woman?"

"That's right." The empress's attitude was decisive.

"No!" "I don't agree!"

"You have no choice but to agree! This matter is decided by me. Also, Shangguan Yun likes you so much, how could she betray you? Perhaps, she had only used the method commonly used by the female servants of the imperial harem to fake it. No matter what, for the sake of the throne, you must endure it. The empress looked at the crown prince and said solemnly.

"Then I might as well not take the throne." Night Emperor Yan frowned, but his words were filled with determination.

"Nonsense!" I've done so much for you, and now you're telling me you don't want the throne? "

The empress was thoroughly angered by his words.

She hatefully looked at Night Emperor Yan and wanted to strangle him to death. Was this child really her child?

She had done all she could for him, but the child seemed not to have meant anything.

Looking at the Night Emperor's flames, the empress's head hurt even more.

"Imperial Mother, I don't care what you think. In short, I don't plan to keep that woman. Also, if anything happens to Shui Long, I'll go with her. " With that, Ye Huangyan turned and left.

"You! Stop right there! " The empress was so angry that she was on the verge of death. She called out to him, but she did not call him back.

"Empress, what happened to His Highness?" Red Plum walked in and asked worriedly when she saw the empress trembling with anger.

"How would I know!?" Damn it! For that woman, this child actually doesn't even want the throne anymore. "

"Niangniang, from this servant's point of view, the Crown Prince has been bewitched. He needs to wake up."

Hong Mei comforted.

"I know that as well, but look at his appearance. I haven't done anything to that woman yet, but he's already like that. "

The empress could not help but sigh at the mention of the crown prince. He hated not being able to meet his expectations.

When Hong Mei heard this, she rolled her eyes and said, "Empress, this servant has an idea that I don't know whether or not I should say."

"Speak!" Why aren't you telling me now? "

The Queen said hurriedly.

"Empress, His Highness the crown prince hates the crown prince's consort. This is the root cause of this matter." However, His Highness the Crown Prince is someone who must repay favors. If His Highness the Crown Prince is accidentally assassinated, the imperial concubine might not hesitate to use her body to defend against the sword for him. What will happen to His Highness the Crown Prince? "

Hongmei's tone was very light, and when the Queen heard her, her eyes lit up.

However, in the next moment, she frowned again, "The Crown Princess has overdone it this time. If the matter regarding royal grandson is not true, then she is guilty of bullying the monarch. "

"Empress, you will not speak of this matter. If His Highness the crown prince does not speak of it, who will know of it?"

"That's true." The Queen nodded her head in agreement.

"So, esteemed wangfei, you must make the crown prince feel guilty towards the crown prince's wife before he tells the world about this."

"In that case, go call the Crown Princess into the palace."

"Empress, I think it's best if we don't." Hong Mei advised.

"Hmm? "Why?" The Queen did not understand.

"Empress, you must have thought that the Crown Princess could do such a thing for no other reason. Therefore, he might as well use this matter to test the princess' feelings for him. Furthermore, we should avoid His Highness the Crown Prince suspecting that this is a fake. "

"Will this be a risk?" The Queen hesitated.

"Empress, there is no other way."

Hong Mei said as she squeezed the empress's shoulder.

The empress nodded when she heard this. "Forget it. You can take care of this matter as soon as possible."

"Yes, Empress."

Hong Mei withdrew as soon as she finished her sentence.

The Queen sat in her chair and thought back to how the crown prince had argued with her just now. Then she thought about what Hong Mei had said and closed her eyes. Forget it, let's just leave it at that.

She just hoped that the Crown Princess would try her best and stop thinking about the Crown Prince for the time being.

It had only been half a day since the crown prince returned to the capital, but news of this had already spread throughout the capital. At the same time, the voice also entered Shui Ruo's ears.

In order to give a welcoming reception to the crown prince, the empress held a banquet in the afternoon.

The location of the banquet was Ling Yue Palace.

The ministers naturally arrived, as did Night Emperor Shang.

Thus, Night Emperor Shang decided to wait until the end of the banquet, and then he invited the Crown Prince to the mansion to have a detailed conversation about the matters of the river, and then he thought of a plan.

However, what he didn't know was that his decision had actually put Shui Ruo and himself in a passive position.

Of course, this was something to wait for later.

Time passed very quickly. After Night Emperor Shang instructed for everyone to take care of their needs, he brought Feng Xi, who had just arrived, and went to the imperial palace.

The purpose was to let Feng Xi take advantage of this opportunity to see Wan Er.

Wan-Er should be very helpless right now. If she had an outstanding man like Feng Xi to care for her, she would definitely have feelings for her. A woman would always be kind to someone for love's sake. When that happened, Wan'er would probably testify for Shui Yuehan.

Night Emperor Shang thought very well, and he was indeed doing so.

"You want to go to the banquet?" Feng Xi frowned as he looked at the carriage in front of the door of the palace. He was a bit conflicted.

"You can only see Wan'er early if you go to the banquet." Night Emperor Shang helplessly rubbed his glabella.

As expected, when he mentioned Wan'er, Feng Ji was interested and sat in the carriage with him.

In the capital, only the ministers and His Majesty knew of Feng Xi's existence.

However, they didn't know if Feng Xi had changed so much.

Night Emperor Shang sighed with a headache. Because of the matter of Shui Ruo, he had not rested for a long time.

The distance between the prince's mansion and the palace wasn't too far. Very quickly, Night Emperor Shang and Feng Ji arrived at the entrance of the palace.

After bringing Feng Xi into the palace, the two of them went to the Phoenix Nest Palace together.

"Your Highness." As soon as he arrived, he heard the respectful voice of the woman.
