The emperor looked at me with guilt in his eyes. I smiled consolingly. "Your majesty, I'm fine. You don't have to feel indebted to me. It's just a small trick to make women jealous. It's not a big deal."
The emperor's gaze towards me suddenly became red-hot. "Little Xing, do you mean that you're vying for jealousy with Imperial Consort Li?"
I coughed a little awkwardly. "I'm just using an adjective. What's there to be jealous about? She's the emperor's woman, and we're siblings."
"But I have never seen you as my sister, I have." The Emperor spoke with some excitement, but stopped after saying a few words. The expression on his face was very subtle.
"Did you come to see me this morning?" The emperor's expression immediately changed. It was a cold expression that belonged solely to an emperor.
"It's about Lianfei." As I said this, I took out the teardrop stone.
"This was left to the emperor by consort Lianfei." As I spoke, I stuffed it into the emperor's hands. The emperor glanced at it, a little puzzled.
"This is?"
"This is the teardrop stone of regret. It can suppress evil and protect the peace, and it's hard to come by in this world."
"Tearstone? It is said that the tears of the soul congealed. How could you have it? The Emperor hesitated, but didn't say anything.
"Esteemed Empress Lianfei is already dead."
After I said this, there wasn't much surprise on the Emperor's face, but it could be seen that there was a moment of absent-mindedness.
"Actually, Esteemed Empress Lianfei didn't go insane. She did this to protect the emperor from evil spirits. Your majesty, the Esteemed Empress Lianfei has always been happy for the emperor. The person she worried about before her death was you."
The emperor lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. "This is the reason why I ignored her afterwards. It's impossible for me to like her, so I hope that she won't hold such high hopes."
I didn't know what to say next. When I came here, I thought of a lot of possibilities, if the emperor was indifferent, I would take it to heart, and use him as a reason to make him feel extremely guilty towards Baili Lianer, or at least remember that kind of words. But the emperor's words made me give up on my thoughts, and the emperor didn't do anything wrong.
"Where is Lianfei's body?" the Emperor asked.
"Under the tree in the courtyard of Lianfei, Lianfei's life was very bitter. She wanted to leave quietly." I said, and fell silent.
"Is the emperor not curious how I know all this?" I see that there is no more to it, but I have thought of many reasons why I would have to excuse myself if the Emperor were to ask, and it makes me feel guilty not to ask.
"Then will you?" The Emperor looked at me with eyes I didn't understand.
"Even the emperor doesn't ask, how would I know if I would confess or not?" I said with a stupefied expression. After all, it was very frightening for the emperor to go against his plans.
"Then why do you know so much? Furthermore, why would you have something that is a ghost like this teardrop repentance stone? " A series of questions popped up in the Emperor's mind.
I awkwardly glanced at the Emperor. In other words, the Emperor really spoke with a sincere face, causing the reason that I had prepared to be held back. I always felt that facing the Emperor's unconditional trust, it wasn't right for me to lie to her.
"If I say I can see ghosts, will the Emperor believe me?" I probingly looked at the Emperor.
"I believe you, I believe everything you say." The emperor's gaze returned to burning.
"Alright, I always feel that the emperor trusts me this unconditionally. If I deceive the emperor, then there will always be a burden in my heart. This feeling isn't good, then I'll tell the truth. I can see ghosts and deities." So I was there when Lianfei passed away last night. It was Baili Ningxiang who killed Lianfei, and she died too, but she turned into a ghost, threatening the emperor, and Lianfei acted crazy and played dumb in order to protect the emperor. In order to keep the emperor away from her, she even activated the seal on the palace, the spirit sealing array, trapping Baili Ningxiang inside. "She said many things from the past. She said that she was the luckiest person in her life to have met the emperor. She doesn't regret doing anything for him."
After I finished speaking, I looked at the emperor. His face was moved, but he didn't have a sorrowful expression. "I hope she can meet a family member that truly loves her in her next life, husband." The Emperor caressed the crystal clear pearl, wishing him happiness.
"She will. Good things come back to good people. Lianfei has suffered a lot in this life. In the next life, she will definitely be a woman who is doted on." I looked at the teardrop stone, as if I saw Lianfei in front of my eyes.
"The emperor doesn't seem surprised at all by my identity. When I said I could see ghosts and gods, the emperor was also very calm, as if the emperor had always known about it." I looked doubtfully at the Emperor, looking into his eyes to see what he was thinking.
I am the emperor of the Xia Rong Country, and you have already said that there are restrictions in the palace. Since you have set them up, I naturally know that there are many unknown things in this world, and I have already guessed more than half the things when Little Xing said that I saw consort Lian. However, since these things are unknown to everyone, it is naturally not easy for me to inquire about them, for fear that you would reveal some sort of secret. The Emperor had a faint smile on his face, and the look in his eyes when he saw everything made me feel as if I had nowhere to hide from the Emperor.
"Your majesty is indeed worthy of being the ruler of a country, your thoughts are clear as expected," I said with a smile. His majesty was really uneasy and often thought up tricks, and even though he had analyzed everything correctly, it was obvious that I was a bit petty and cautious.
"That's right. Your majesty, who set up the restrictions in this palace? I feel that his Yin-Yang magic is quite good. I want to have a chance to spar with him. " I thought back to the Soul-Sealing Formation that I praised endlessly yesterday.
"I once invited him to the palace to answer questions. The mage said that there were some unclean things in my palace that needed to be suppressed, so I set up this spirit locking array. But after that, High Monk continued to wander the four seas, so I didn't pursue this matter. After all, this kind of High Monk's whereabouts were naturally unknown. "
After hearing it, I sighed. It seems that I don't have the means to see this high monk's Spiritual Energy anymore.
"Then there's nothing we can do. Your Majesty, I've given you a blessings for your safety inside this teardrop stone. That's why, when you carry it on you, you can save your life at a critical moment." The Emperor has to take it with him. " I repeated.
"Is Xing worried about my comfort?" The Emperor touched the teardrop again, more gently than before.
"Of course, since the Emperor is so good to me, I have no way to repay him, so I took this Esteemed Empress Lianfei's repentant stone and offered it up as a gift." I smiled.
The Emperor was beaming with joy as well, but he was truly happy.
"This Emperor will definitely keep it close to his body." The emperor clenched his tears tightly and happily said, "Hur Hur." The emperor's laughter always made my scalp tingle.
