To a woman, love, unintentional is the most important, for love, they can abandon everything, for love, they can endure torture. For the sake of love, even the most basic of people's self-esteem could be put down.

Because... They had given everything they had to their loved ones. As long as he could get the one he loved, that was his entire life.

Especially in ancient times, women did not have the right to choose their own lives.

At home, she would marry her father and her husband. If she could meet a good family, she might be able to pick and choose.

Shangguan Yun was born into such a blissful family.

She was noble, arrogant, beautiful, graceful, talented. She had everything that the women envied. It was precisely this kind of woman that, when she was young, already had someone she loved.

Once liked, later loved. And finally, disappointment.

She loved to spend the night with him. It could even be said that she still cared about him.

Night Emperor Xiu was her most beautiful dream in many years. She had once imagined that one day, the Night Emperor would ride his warhorse to her doorstep, marry her, and then smile for her. But it turned out to be a dream.

When she reached the age of thirty, the empress dowager herself gave the order to choose her husband, the crown prince of the dynasty.

He was a male and female, the one with the highest authority, Night Emperor Yan.

It was said that the Night Emperor's personality was extremely perverted and ruthless, making it hard for people to guard against him. Not only that, he was extremely violent as well. She had been afraid, resented, and looked forward to it.

He hoped that the Night Emperor would be able to snatch her back before the wedding banquet. However, expectations eventually turned into disappointment.

She became the princess' consort because of the worry of her family and the blessings of the officials.

At that time, the noble her never thought that one day, on her wedding night, she would be beaten up by her husband. She also never thought that her husband would not even touch her.

From then on, she was the noble prince's consort outside. Within her, she was a punching bag that Emperor Ye gave him. She didn't have the qualifications to say no, nor did she have the right to ask him to love her.

At that time, she had thought that this man who was so beautiful that he didn't seem human would not love. She thought that this man would one day see her good. She thought that this man might like her. At the very least, when he wasn't angry, he would occasionally smile at her.

Although that smile was only meant to get her to return to the Shangguan family and fight for his benefits.

She loved him madly. Even if he had to suffer, he wanted to be pampered. This was because this person looked so gentle and gentle.

Perhaps, she didn't do it well enough. That was why he did this.

She had waited so many years with this expectation. Until that woman Shui Long appeared!

This woman had completely destroyed her fantasies about the Night Emperor Flame.

Indeed, her husband was very gentle. But unfortunately, the one facing her wasn't her. Who would her husband treat well? Unfortunately, it wasn't her.

His husband did indeed have love, but it wasn't just her that was being given to him!

This result looked so pale and powerless. It was as if he was mocking himself for all these years for fantasizing about himself and thinking too much about himself.

"If …" "From the start, it was better that there was no water."

Shangguan Yun's voice was very soft, almost like she was mumbling, but she was really looking forward to it.

Hearing that, Ling'er looked at Shangguan Yun in surprise. When he noticed the woman's complicated gaze of loss, he fell silent.

The word 'love' was something that shouldn't be found in the people from the Royal Clan. Especially women.

Now, the Crown Prince was still the Crown Prince. He hadn't become the Emperor yet. Once he becomes the Emperor, there will be more women. Perhaps one day, he might even meet another woman like Shui Long. Then, crazy adoration.

At a time like this, the one who had to bear everything was his original wife.

Thus, the women of the Royal Family were not allowed to have any love. Love can make people lose their eyes, it can make people unable to see the essence.

They would force others to walk into a dead end.

[The Crown Princess would never have a good ending, right?] Ling'er thought about it, but didn't warn her.

Because this was the path that the Crown Princess had chosen.

What kind of illustrious family background was this? As the daughter of the Shangguan family, she naturally knew long ago how to deal with such a situation. Naturally she knew that she couldn't fall in love with her husband.

But she still loved him. When you love someone, you are happy, but when you pay the price, it is painful.

This was the main wife of the emperor.

She had once seen the empress's desolate expression. She was also envious of those women who had received love but died.

Because they looked so great, so great. They were born for love, died for love, and then occupied such a huge position in the hearts of their loved ones!

He was forever living in that person's heart.

That was something she would never dare to ask for.

The empress was the most respected woman in the world, and the only one who couldn't afford to love her.

If she had any feelings, it would definitely cause a war in the imperial harem.

If the imperial harem was in chaos, then she wouldn't be far from being hated by the emperor.

"Empress, this servant will take my leave first." When her thoughts returned to the present, Ling'er looked at the princess consort and turned around to leave.

Shangguan Yun was left alone, pondering.

Shui Ruo had always felt that night was the most annoying. Because night was the best time to hide her sins. It was also the time for her to go against her wishes and walk the path of a killer.

She was someone born to organize. When she had seen those people in her previous life, they had already made that judgment.

Thus, her younger brother had been snatched away by Chu Feng. As for her, she had become their chess piece.

A chess piece that didn't dare to move recklessly but was always successful.

For her brother's safety, she had done almost everything she didn't want to do.

When the warm blood landed on her face, her heart would always hurt as if it was being torn apart. Then, he began to be stupefied, and finally, he fell into despair.

Therefore, she hated black. The dark night reminded her of those unbearable things. The dark night reminded her of those helpless things.

She was strong, just as those people had expected her to be. When everyone heard her name, they would feel a chill run down their spines. However, no one remembered that she was also a woman. She would also look forward to someone accompanying her.

Thus, when they met the Night Emperor, they liked him so much.

That's why he was so moved when he disregarded imperial orders in order to protect her.

She was a tenacious person, but also a person who pursued perfection. She had chosen the cultivation of the Night Emperor, which meant that she was destined to live her entire life for the sake of the cultivation of the Night Emperor.

Just like in his previous life, he had lived to bring his younger brother back to him.

"What are you thinking about? Are you that infatuated? " The man's voice was gentle, no longer filled with the ruthlessness and irritation from before.

Shui Long heard her words and turned around. Sure enough, what entered his eyes was the smiling face of Ye Huangyan.

"You're not angry?" Shui Ruo smiled as he looked at the man, before teasing him …

Hearing this, Night Emperor Yan could only smile. He looked at Shui Ruo, his heart still filled with tenderness and helplessness.

Sure enough, it was better when she was in a dream. The big sister goddess in the dream would always smile at him and would never condemn him. However, the water in the real world is long, it can make you sad, it can make you lonely, and it can make you happy.

However, all of this was for herself, not for him.

Whenever he thought of this, he would always get upset. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't grab onto her heart. It was as if he would be left behind at any moment.

Everyone felt that he, the Emperor of the Night, was not afraid of anything. But no one knew. He was afraid of being lonely.

"Miss, how are you doing living in the crown prince's residence?" Ye Huangyan looked at Shui Long and asked gently.

Shui Long was startled, not expecting him to suddenly ask about it.

"What's wrong? Why do you ask? Who told you something you shouldn't have? Or did I allow you to misunderstand in any way? " The drawn-out question of water is a series of problems.

And after throwing out this series of questions, even Nightmare was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry.

He looked at Shui Long and shook his head. "No, I'm just worried that I'm not happy here."

"If His Highness wasn't so reserved and allowed me to stay in the mansion freely, perhaps I'd be happy." Shui Yuehan said with a smile.

"Alright."

"Look, I told you..." Eh? What did you say? " Shui Ruo had thought that he would refuse, but who would have thought that he would suddenly come up with a 'yes'.

Shui was so frightened by this answer that he couldn't react for a long time. He was just about to pinch his face to see if it was real.

"Mm, I've said it. I'll allow you to travel anywhere in the Crown Prince's Palace." Night Emperor Yan never thought that Shui You's reaction would be so huge. For a moment, he bitterly smiled.

Does he look so cruel?

"Uh, thanks." Shui Long was still a little surprised, so he thanked her awkwardly.

"I've said it before. You don't need to thank me. In my eyes, if you are happy, it is enough."

"Your Highness is so good to me, I don't even know how to repay you."

Shui Long lowered his head and said with a smile.

"Promise me your life?" Night Emperor Yan joked.

"…" Shui Long was silent, not daring to answer. He didn't know why, but he had a feeling that once he answered, some things would deteriorate.

Perhaps, she shouldn't have foolishly asked this question just now. The crown prince had wanted to bring up this issue, but he had held back. If this were to continue, he would definitely be in a terrible situation.

Over here, the way water evaded this question was seen by Night Emperor Yan. He lowered his head in disappointment.

As expected, he was still unwilling to accept it?

"Don't worry young lady, it was just a joke just now."

"Right." Shui Ruo was still embarrassed.

The two stood at the window together. After a while, they were the first to speak: "Does Your Highness have any hobbies?"

"Is Go considered?"

The man looked at Shui Ruo and asked.

"Of course. Do you want to play chess? " Feng Qingyue looked at the man and asked with a smile.

Chess... How long has it been since I heard anyone's request? The Night Emperor looked at Shui Long with a gentle smile.

"Ah Fu, bring me His Highness' Amethyst Chess." "Let's go!" Night Emperor Yan ordered. Very quickly, they heard the sound of jogging from outside.

"Your Highness, we have obtained the chess pieces."

The follower named Ah Fu was extremely fast. He was even panting. It was obvious that he had run all the way here.

However, where would he put this chess piece? How could he be so fast?

"Come." The Crown Prince took the chess pieces and ordered the people to put them on the board.

When everything was ready, the Crown Prince said, "Lady, please begin."

"Right." Shui nodded his head, not rejecting the man's modesty.

One had to know that until one knew the strength of the other, one could never be arrogant.

Shui Ruo was not a meticulous person. With regards to Go, she only learned it when she was doing quests.

Even though the Go Master had said that she was a genius and wanted her to learn Go, she had refused.

She was not interested in Go. But today, it seems that learning a little from the past can be considered a great help.

An expert in Go and a talented beginner. The difference between the two was obvious when playing chess.

Although Shui Long's attitude was strict, he was exceptionally bold. In comparison, Night Emperor Yan's move was a bit more cautious, as well as that hidden killing move.

Layout, this was what every expert was passionate about. Shui Yuehan had once learned this technique, but it was still just a piece of fur.

After the two had fought for fifty rounds, Shui Yuehan was finally defeated.

"Heh." Night Emperor Yan only chuckled. He looked at the water, still as gentle as ever.

Shui Ruo, on the other hand, had a helpless look on her face, "As expected, beginners can't do it."

"Young lady's chess skills are already very good. It would be modest to call her a beginner." Night Emperor's Flame was still as gentle as ever.

After the two of them put away the chess pieces, the second round began.

This time, the Night Emperor's flames did not let the water flow freely, but instead began to act first.

That was fair. There can never be modesty in a battle.

Giving it a try was already a great deal of gentleness.

This time, with the experience from last time, Shui Ruo didn't lose too badly.

At least he was barely able to do it.

When the battle ended, the smile on Night Emperor's face deepened.

The two continued to play chess until late at night, when it finally came to an end.

After the competition ended, without waiting for Shui Jiuyan's request, Night Emperor Yan had already left.

Looking at the back of Night Emperor Yan and his lackey who was dozing off while giving him the lantern, Shui Yuehan had a strange feeling in his heart.

The Night Emperor had always been letting her win.

Although there was no trace of it, she could still feel it.

From the very beginning, this man had never revealed his true strength. It was as if he was toying with a kitten.

He was worried about her mood, afraid that if she lost too miserably, she would be unhappy.

Unexpectedly gentle.

Shui Yuehan sighed helplessly as he thought to himself. Then, he closed the door tightly, completely taking care of his own heart to prevent any other emotions from arising out of it.

It was enough for her to have only one lover, and it was the same for those who loved her.

Regardless of whether it was the Night Emperor's flames or the Night Emperor's injuries, they were all the same to her.

As he thought about this, he slowly lay on the bed and looked at the bed board. He blinked his eyes, and the complicated look in his eyes made his heart ache.
