"The woman? "I don't know, I've never seen it before."

"It seems to be that Miss Shui who never marries out?"

"Such ruthlessness, he shouldn't be able to get married!"

"Yeah, she's so nice to a girl, yet she bullies you too."

"Why hasn't anyone punished her yet?"

The families beside the ministers began to discuss with each other. When the Queen heard this, she was satisfied.

However, on the surface, she seemed to be troubled. "Wan-Er, is what you said true?"

"Lady, you know what I am like. If … if I didn't do this to you all the time, I really don't want to say it."

After saying so, she started to cry.

At this moment, everyone's displeasure turned towards the water.

When the Queen saw this, she immediately said, "Men, drag this woman down for me."

With these words, he saw the imperial guards rush in from the outside.

Shui Long looked at this scene and smiled calmly. "Esteemed Empress, you've really made a wise decision."

"Of course. I am the empress. I must listen to the grievances of others."

The Queen looked at Shui Ruo and said coldly.

"Is that so? "Then esteemed empress, do you want to hear my grievances as well?" Shui Chou looked at the Queen and asked blandly.

"Your grievances?" The Queen frowned.

"Esteemed empress, I think we should listen to him as well. It's a bit too much to listen to one-sided words. It's also very unfair to Miss Shui. "

Night Emperor Shang's voice rang out.

Everyone felt that it was inconceivable that the Night Emperor would speak in such a leisurely manner for the sake of water. Did the Second Prince really like such a vicious woman? Well, that's normal though.

After all, the Second Prince was very insidious.

"Since the Second Prince has already said so, then you, speak."

The Queen looked at Shui Ruo and said softly.

Shui Long smiled at her words. "Many thanks to esteemed empress for giving me the chance to express my gratitude."

Shui Chao walked to Wan-Er and asked, "Lady, may I ask, where did I trip you?"

"This is the place." Wan-Er pointed to a spot in the hall. It was a confirmation.

"Are you sure it's there?" Shui Yuehan asked with a smile.

"Of course, how could I be wrong? The first time was there, the second time was here. " He pointed to another place and said to Wan-Er.

"So that's how it is." Shui gave a teasing smile.

Then he looked at the terrain, and continued to ask: "So, girl, how did I trip you? Which foot did you use? "

"The first time it was the left foot, the second time it was the right foot." Wan'er was still confident.

"Is that so? "So that's how it is. Since that's the case, let me ask you again, before I tripped you earlier, what was our position?"

"It's like this." He made a gesture to Wan-Er and laughed.

"So that's how it is."

"That's it." He added to Wan-Er.

"Oh, then I don't know if you know or not, Miss." Shui Long spoke half a sentence.

"Know what?" Wan-Er didn't understand.

"The way the girl was just in, no matter if she was using her left foot or her right foot, it was impossible for her to trip over it. And the position that the lady pointed to, is also impossible for her to be in this position? "

Shui looked at Wan-Er with glowing eyes.

"Nonsense!" Wan-Er was furious.

"How is that nonsense?" The dance steps are rhythmic, and the place where we started is also fixed, and the gaps in the hall are already set. The position that the lady mentioned just now does not match where we were dancing just now. If you were to say that I tripped you there, then your posture would not be as you said. " Shui Long looked at Wan'er and said each word.

"I, I seem to have remembered wrongly, it should be like this." He changed his posture again.

Shui Sheng watched on, his smile even more radiant. "Even so, if I were to trip you up, the place where you will fall will also be directly in front of you, and not in that position you were in just now."

"Nonsense! "What evidence do you have to prove that you're right?" Wan-Er was completely enraged by Shui Long.

"It's simple. We'll find two people to demonstrate it and we'll know if it's true or not." Shui Ruo said calmly.

"You!" Wan-Er was furious, but at this moment, the emperor's voice rang out, "You are a woman from the Shui family?"

Emperor's words made Shui Ruo surprised, but he still replied immediately, "Yes."

"How did you figure out what happened just now?" The Emperor looked at the water with curiosity.

"It was calculated through a few test questions. It is actually very simple. As long as we clear up the various angles and calculate the final position, we will know." Shui Yuehan was calm.

"Oh? It's simple? " Shui Long's words made the emperor burst out in laughter. "Haha, interesting, what an interesting girl. This is the first time that I have seen such a difficult thing. "

"Thank you, your majesty, for your praise." Shui laughed leisurely.

"Alright, I am very satisfied with this performance. Servants, reward the prime minister's daughter to Wan'er, the daughter of the Shui family's daughter, Liu Lu, for one jade step each."

After the emperor announced with a loud laugh, the crowd burst into an uproar.

What's going on? Could everything that had happened just now have been a play by two people? The purpose was to solve the rest of the problems?

If so, when did the two of them meet?

The ministers all had different thoughts, but when Shui Long and Wan'er heard the emperor's words, they knew in their hearts that the emperor didn't want to see a quarrel at the New Year's Eve banquet. Thus, they tactfully accepted the reward and returned to their seats.

"It's really dangerous." Night Emperor Shang smiled at the returning water as he spoke.

"Yeah." The water still had a lingering fear.

"Father seems to be in a good mood today." Night Emperor Shang continued.

"Mm, it seems like the emperor doesn't want to see an argument." The water echoed.

"No, it's not that I don't want to see it, but I can't let you and Wan'er argue. royal father's impression of you earlier should be alright. However, if you really are going to quarrel with Wan'er, father would choose to side with you, not you, for the sake of the imperial court. At that time, you won't be able to step down. "

Emperor Ye Shang explained the emperor's intentions. After Shui Long heard what was said, he looked at Xiang Wan'er, who was being coaxed by her family, and sighed emotionally.

Why would such a lady from a noble family fall in love with Night Emperor Shang?

If the person she liked was someone else, perhaps she could be happier and have a better ending?

As a man, there wouldn't be any love, and those who loved him were fated to not have any results. Wan'er, a person is very smart, but they chose the man they shouldn't love the most.

"Is the second prince not going to get married?" Shui You looked at the Ye Huang Shang beside him and asked.

"Married? Why should we get married? " Night Emperor Shang was puzzled.

"People like the Second Prince should have a lot of women who like you. If you don't get married, won't they have to wait for you?" Shui Yuehan laughed leisurely.

"That has nothing to do with me. You should know who the person I want is." Night Emperor Shang stared at the water, his eyes shining.

"Your Highness, there are many things you cannot force yourself to do. Not everyone can obtain what you want, and not everyone can either. What His Highness truly wants, might not be as good as His Highness thinks. If we can relax, perhaps we might be able to find someone else that we want to cherish more. " Shui Yuehan's leisurely attitude was nothing to scoff at.

Hearing this, Ye Wenzhou disapproved of Shui Long's actions of pretending to be confused.

He did not answer her.

When he scanned the crowd and realized that Night Emperor Xiu did not come, he could not help but feel somewhat puzzled. "It's very strange, that man did not actually appear."

"Eh?" The water flowed slowly, not understanding.

"Night Emperor."

"Probably very busy." The water flowed leisurely.

"This is a palace feast. No matter how busy you are, you still have to come. It's probably the same as before. " Night Emperor Shang helplessly smiled.

As for the old saying, it referred to being late.

Emperor Xiu would never come to a banquet on time. In his own words, it was boring.

He seemed to find the party boring, so he would never come early.

Shui Ruo didn't understand what Night Emperor Shang was talking about, but he wasn't too curious.

Due to the leisurely matter regarding Wan'er and Shui, there was some awkwardness in the main hall. At this moment, Shangguan Yun slowly walked out.

"Your majesty, esteemed empress, daughter-in-law Shangguan Yun, is willing to come and cheer things up."

Shangguan Yun's appearance was something that no one expected. Shangguan Yun had always been disinterested in things like cheering at the palace banquet. Firstly, she felt that it was beneath her status, and secondly, she was the Crown Prince's consort. There was no need to curry favor with others like this.

But she actually came out today?

The ministers were shocked, as was the emperor's queen. Looking at Shangguan Yun, the empress said, "Is the crown prince's consort interested in this as well?"

"My daughter-in-law is willing to cheer everyone up." Shangguan Yun smiled. She didn't say that she was interested, nor did she say that she wasn't, but just for the sake of everyone.

When everyone heard this, they could only sigh with emotion. As expected of the daughter of Shangguan family, she had a way of speaking.

Shangguan Yun's attitude made the empress smile, "Then, what does the Crown Princess want to do to help the fun?"

"Sword Dance." Shangguan Yun's attitude was stern. No one was surprised by his words.

The Shangguan Family's sword dance was famous, but there were very few people who could see the Shangguan Family's sword dance. This was because the daughter of the Shangguan family would only dance for her lover when she met him.

Her actions today couldn't help but cause others to suspect that the rumors were true.

Shangguan Yun had really met her match in the Crown Prince's Palace, how else would she have used a move like Sword Dance?

Of course, they could only guess at this. If he were to talk about it in detail, he would need the people from the Crown Prince's Palace to do so.

"Dance of the Sword, of course!" the empress laughed shrewdly. Someone then brought up the sword for Shangguan Yun.

Shangguan Yun drew her sword and moved along with the zither music. Every movement was precise and clean, without any delay, but every movement carried with it the feelings of a daughter.

The sword danced beautifully with a touch of softness.

Everyone was dumbstruck, even the emperor and empress, couldn't help but admire him.

Shui Long looked at Shangguan Yun who was standing in the middle, and sighed with emotion.

Perhaps, this was Shangguan Yun's noble demeanor?

These days, although Shangguan Yun would occasionally mess with her, most of her tricks would not kill her. Shangguan Yun was a good person from the bottom of her heart.

She wouldn't plot against Wan'er like she did with Ling'er. She wouldn't do the same thing with Ling'er. Her plan was the same as hers. It was fair and square. If it wasn't for that, she wouldn't have hurt Bing'er so foolishly.

If it wasn't for what she had done to Bing-Er, perhaps they could have a good relationship.

Shui looked at Shangguan Yun and sighed.

When Shangguan Yun finished her dance, the whole room was filled with applause. Under the applause, Shangguan Yun slowly returned to her seat.

As he looked at the clapping Night Emperor Yan beside him, his heart was filled with joy.

To her, the opinions of others were not important. As long as she liked the person she cared about the most, that was enough.

Perhaps it was a little sad, or perhaps, it was a little laughable. However, this was her insistence. It would never change.

"Princess Consort's sword dance is truly marvelous." The Queen cried as she praised Shangguan Yun.

He then saw Shangguan Bing standing up from his seat, "Since my sister has already performed to cheer us on, then I can't afford to stay behind either."

Everyone was stunned by Shangguan Bing's words. After all, it was rare for Shangguan Bing to show off at a banquet.

This person, no matter when he came to the banquet, would silently come, then silently go, and then take away the girls' hearts.

In terms of appearance, Shangguan Han did not look too good. However, his pure and pure look, with seventy percent evil aura, was very popular with girls.

As a result, Shangguan Bing's reputation naturally grew.

"Oh? It's the Shangguan Family's Young Master Jing. " The Queen was surprised to see Shangguan Bing coming out.

"Blessed are the Empress." Shangguan Han was humble.

"Forget it. "Tell me, what do you want to do to cheer us up?" the empress asked curiously.

Shangguan Bing smiled slightly and said: "I don't know how to use anything special, so I'll just use what I'm good at."

"Eh?" The Queen did not understand.

Then, under the curious gaze of the empress, the man said slowly, "Life and death, flesh and bones."
