Night Emperor Shang's tone was very indifferent, as if he was talking about someone else. It was as if he was not a member of the royal family.

Shui Long listened attentively to his words. He was slightly moved, but he did not say anything.

At this moment, what he needed was not comfort, but silence.

"Anyway, don't worry. Imperial Father wouldn't send people over, and so would Empress. When the Crown Prince and the Third Marquis are fighting, she won't be stupid enough to offend me. " Emperor Shang looked at Shui Ruo and laughed.

Shui listened and nodded silently. Then he said, "Thank you. If you weren't here, I really don't know what to do. "

"Eh? Didn't Emperor Xiu come to find you today? " Emperor Shang blinked his eyes with an expression that said 'you lied to me', causing Shui Ruo to laugh involuntarily.

"Isn't that different? It is only natural for him to do it for me. I feel at ease, but you are different. I am not related to you in any way. "

"If possible, I also hope that you can feel at ease with me." Emperor Shang looked at Shui Ruo, and his tone became somewhat gloomy. Shui Long looked at him in surprise.

Then, he saw Night Emperor Shang slowly smile, patting her head and saying, "You're joking, don't worry."

So, is this really a joke? Shui Long expressed his doubts.

Many times, people were like this. Regardless of what they already had, they would feel greedy and would want more. In the end, they would walk the path of no return.

It was like looking at Wan'er.

Inside the Crown Princess's palace, the Crown Prince's wife Shangguan Yun, who had been preparing to go to bed, looked at Wan'er kneeling on the floor with anger. She was so upset that she was trembling, and she didn't know what to say anymore.

She had expended a great deal of effort to get that woman to jail, but this woman had casually found an opportunity to bring her to King's Manor.

What kind of place was the Jing King Manor?

And who was Nightmare?

How could he take out the thing in his hand?

"You, you." Shangguan Yun pointed at the girl. You didn't say anything for a long time.

"Sorry, I-I didn't mean to do it. I only, I only wanted to help you vent your anger, who knew it would become like this? "

Wan-Er felt wronged.

"Humph!" You can lie to others, but you want to lie to me? Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Let me tell you, you better pray that Shui Long can be convicted this time, otherwise, I'll make you pay with your life for my son's death! "

The Crown Princess glared at her. When he mentioned his lost child, he couldn't help but feel pain in his heart.

Although she said that she did it on her own accord, that the child wasn't the crown prince's, but it was still her flesh after all. That was the first time she was about to become a mother, but for the sake of the crown prince, she chose to give up on that child in order to kill that woman. And it was from that moment onwards that she was destined to have no way back. In any case, that woman had to be dragged into hell to accompany the child.

"Crown Princess, I, I really didn't do it on purpose. Furthermore, that woman has committed a heinous crime. Even if she wanted to live, it would be hard for her to do so. " Looking towards Shangguan Yun'er, he said with a fawning tone.

"This Concubine naturally knows. In short, don't interfere in this matter anymore and don't do anything to that woman." This consort's hatred towards that woman isn't any less than yours. "However, she did nothing in order to get her to be convicted without any reason. Yet, you …"

Shangguan Yun really didn't want to say anything else after saying that. She waved her hand with all her heart, gesturing for her to leave.

Seeing that Shangguan Yun did not want to see her again, he thought to himself, I'm keeping my life, I'll have to see when that woman Shui Long dies.

However, if she didn't die, she would be the one to suffer in the end.

While thinking about it, Wan-Er started to hope that Shui Jiu would be convicted soon.

That night, because of Shui You and the fact that the Crown Princess no longer had the support of the little prince, many people stayed up all night to gloat. There were even some who were having a headache.

However, no matter how these people thought about it, they couldn't stop the arrival of the next day.

The next day, as the sun rose, those who had nothing to do with the matter began their new work. The ministers also began their morning assembly.

Night Emperor rarely went into court, but every time he went there, something big happened.

Thus, the moment they saw the Night Emperor, many ministers were shocked. There were even some who were worried about their own flower plume.

He was afraid that tonight, Emperor Shang would come for his own matters.

To many people, Night Emperor Shang was a fiend.

However, they soon found out that something had happened in the palace.

Not long after the emperor had arrived, the princess consort and the daughter of the prime minister had also arrived.

And what was even more frightening was that the empress had come with the emperor to the morning assembly today. Moreover, both the emperor and empress didn't look too good.

If they did not know that this was a matter of the palace, then they were no longer qualified to be officials.

Almost in an instant, these people came to a conclusion.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, and everyone cried out in unison, "Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!"

The emperor's gaze then fell upon the princess consort.

He really didn't have a good impression of Shui Ruo.

Not long after meeting Shui Long for the first time, he found out that his son had unexpectedly inserted himself into the door for this woman.

The second time she saw the water, she and the Prime Minister's daughter, Wan-Er, were having an argument and almost messed up the banquet.

And this time, it was even more excessive! She actually caused the princess consort to lose the prince! He lost his grandson. This was unbearable.

"Men, bring water with you!" The Emperor's tone was dignified. Upon saying those words, the two men who were in charge of the other party's affairs walked up to him.

Kneeling on the ground, he said, "Reporting to the emperor, the criminals Shui Long was taken away by Prince Jing in private last night. The servants were unable to stop him, please forgive them, Your Majesty."

As soon as these people finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on the emperor of the night.

One had to know that the Night Emperor was famous for his craftiness and treachery in the capital. To make him do such a foolish thing, it truly wasn't easy.

Many people began to be curious about what kind of charm Shui Long possessed that could even catch the attention of Crown Prince and Night Emperor Shang.

However, these people were curious about the water. As for the Emperor, he was even more enraged by the water.

"Shang'er, what's going on?" The emperor looked at Emperor Shang with dissatisfaction.

Hearing that, Night Emperor Shang respectfully saluted, and said: "Father, the matter is as it stands. He had met her often before because she was a pretty good woman, and because of that, he had a good impression of her. When he heard that Shui Ruo had been captured, he wanted to take a look. After reading it, it was destroyed. But who would have thought that not long after the administration of the Celestial Prison came to find her son, saying that he was torturing her? I wanted to leave it alone. But after thinking about it, her crime had yet to be decided. If something happened, it would damage the might of the heavens. Thus, I followed her back to the Sky Prison. At that time, Shui Ruo had already fallen unconscious, so this subject brought her back to the palace and asked a doctor for treatment. I didn't expect that Miss Shui had suffered too much in the heavenly prison and had her mind battered so far, but she still hasn't awoken. "

As Nightmare Emperor's words slipped away, everyone was left dizzy when he finished speaking.

However, it didn't mean that Emperor Shang was a shrewd person. Originally, he was in the wrong, but after hearing him speak like this, it was still within reason.

The ministers were well aware of Night Emperor Shang's temperament, as well as his habits when speaking. Thus, they cleverly took the initiative to summarize that Ye Shang had a favorable impression of Shui Long, and coincidentally, the daughter of the Prime Minister also acted like a fool, so he would not rest until he had taken her away and prepared to protect her.

The ministers knew, and the emperor and queen knew. However, these words could only be spoken mentally and not on the surface.

After the emperor's queen heard the words of the emperor, she looked at each other.

The Queen then spoke first, "This matter, we cannot listen to King Jing's side of the story. Wan-Er, you are a participant in yesterday's incident. Tell me, what happened? "

The empress pointed her finger at Wan-Er.

Hearing that, Xiang'er took a deep breath and knelt down, "Esteemed Empress, Wan'er was admiring the flowers with esteemed empress and Shui Long yesterday. Shui Long had been jealous that esteemed empress had a child of His Highness the crown prince, so he pushed her aside. But after thinking about it, perhaps Miss Shui did not do it on purpose, so she went to the Sky Prison. Who would have thought that Shui Long would not only insult Wan'er, but also the crown prince's consort and the empress. Wan-Er was angry that we should die a horrible death, so she made a move on her. "Who would have thought that it would result in such a huge mistake."

He spoke to Wan-Er while wiping away his tears.

"The water is long and you are unconscious. You can say whatever you want." Night Emperor Shang ridiculed.

"Then this will also be given to the prince. We didn't say anything, and you, your highness, also wanted to say something. Last night, I spent a lot of time with Shui You, but Your Highness didn't see anything. How can you prove that what I said wasn't true? "

"This King did not say that what you said was not true."

"But Your Highness really does mean that."

Night Emperor Shang and Xiang Wan'er were having a heated argument, and the emperor's mind was in a mess as he said, "Silence!"

The moment the Emperor said this, the two of them went silent.

"Did Shui Ruo really not wake up?" The emperor coldly asked as he looked at Night Emperor Shang.

"Naturally, royal father can send an imperial physician to investigate." Night Emperor Shang calmly said.

"Wan-Er, I ask you, are you sure you saw the princess' wife being pushed down yesterday? And the Crown Princess accidentally slipped? " The Emperor continued in his cold voice.

Wan-Er was shocked. Then he said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Hearing the words of Wan'er and Night Emperor Shang, the emperor was silent for a moment.

"Your Majesty, Your Concubine believes that Miss Wan'er is the daughter of the Prime Minister and would never lie. The reason that Shui Ruo was so unconscious may be because he wanted to escape, but we can't let him go. "

The Empress whispered in his ear when she saw his indecision.

When the Emperor heard this, his frown deepened.

"Father, there are still many questions regarding Shui Ruo pushing down the princess consort. If he really wanted to make a move, why would he choose to do so in the presence of a witness? In your opinion, there might be someone deliberately framing him. " Noticing the Queen interrupting, Night Emperor asked.

"framing? "What do you mean?" The Emperor was curious.

"Everybody knows that there is something going on between Wan'er and Shui Ruo. It is hard to say if Wan'er didn't want to kill Shui Ruo with the help of her princess consort. It was impossible to explain matters between women. Furthermore, before Shui Long wakes up, it would not be good for us to make a decision. "

The Emperor looked at the Emperor with a stern expression.

"Your Highness! How can you slander me! Wan-Er and the Crown Princess were sisters. How could she do such a thing to the Crown Princess? "Your highness, you have insulted Wan-Er in front of everyone. How are you going to meet Wan-Er in the future?"

Wan-Er's voice sounded like she was about to cry. She then said to the emperor, "Your majesty, please examine this."

"Crown Princess, what do you say?" The emperor's gaze landed on the princess consort, he looked at Shangguan Yun and asked.

Hearing this, Shangguan Yun's body trembled, her pale face revealed a hint of sadness, "Reporting to Imperial Father, your son, your son." The Crown Princess started to cry before she finished talking.
