Emperor Xi Ling rubbed his nose, which was almost nicked by the door. His voice sounded a bit depressed.

It was obvious from Xia Sizhu's attitude that she didn't want to welcome him and didn't want to look at him. However, he wanted to look at her.

Last night, when he heard that someone had tried to assassinate her, he had wanted to come see her, but thinking that she hated him so much, he had to worry in his bedroom. Afterwards, he had heard from a eunuch that she was fine.

He was afraid that she would be frightened of something or other. After being anxious for an entire night, he could not help but look for her.

Who knew that he would be thrown into a trap the moment he arrived? This made him feel extremely awkward, but he didn't want to leave.

Xia Sizhu snuggled into Dongfang Ye's embrace, ignoring the rogue at the door.

The Emperor of Xi Ling, however, was not discouraged in the slightest. He resolutely used his thick skin to the end. In any case, he firmly believed that Xia Sizhu was his daughter.

Even if it wasn't him, he could still have ordered his daughter to be taken in. However, he had to make Xia Sizhu accept him first.

Therefore, he threw caution to the wind and didn't want his face anymore. He could only hope that Xia Sizhu would recognize him.

"Let him in, huh? If he were to shout outside like this, it will attract a lot of people. If there are too many people, it would be inconvenient to say anything. "

Dongfang Ye pulled Xia Sizhu's head out of his arms so that she could meet his eyes.

Xia Sizhu didn't say anything, but her eyes were filled with displeasure.

"Come in." Dongfang Ye smiled slightly. He could see the love in Emperor Xi Ling's eyes. It was love for his children, so he wanted to give Emperor Xi Ling a chance.

Due to the matters of his previous life, Ah Zhu was filled with loathing towards Emperor Xi Ling, but he was not affected in the slightest.

If A Zhu was really Emperor Xi Ling's child, then Ah Zhu would have one more relative, one more protection, and one more kinship. He naturally hoped that Ah Zhu would not miss this opportunity.

"Can I call you Zhu'er?" As soon as Emperor Xi Ling entered, his gaze gathered on Xia Sizhu's body.

Emperor Xi Ling rubbed his hands together. He had a simple and honest expression on his face, without the slightest bit of majesty from the Emperor.

"What are you shouting for, I'm not familiar with you!" Xia Sizhu coldly said as she raised her eyes.

"Zhu'er, you're not hurt?" Emperor Xi Ling completely ignored Xia Sizhu's reply.

Xia Sizhu couldn't help but roll her eyes. What kind of situation was this? Ask her and ignore her answer...

"She's not hurt." Dongfang Ye helped Xia Sizhu answer Emperor Xi Ling's question.

"You are?" Only now did Emperor Xi Ling notice Dongfang Ye.

"He's my new pet, his name is Ye Wangdong." Xia Sizhu very naturally answered on behalf of Dongfang Ye.

"She was her new pet to me, her husband betrayed her, and she gave him up. I'm the new man she's looking for. "

Dongfang Ye couldn't help but sully his own reputation when he met Xi Ling Yan's doubtful gaze.

However, she secretly placed her hand on Xia Sizhu's waist and gently pinched it.

He actually dared to say that he was the new pet, and wanted to see how he would deal with her in the future.

"What are you doing here?" Xia Sizhu's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch before her expression didn't change as she spoke.

"I came to see if you were injured." Emperor Xi Ling was extremely excited as he looked at Xia Sizhu.

"You can leave now." Xia Sizhu did not even bother to look at Emperor Xi Ling's joyful eyes as she ruthlessly rejected him.

Emperor Xi Ling's face instantly darkened. What if his daughter hated him?

"If Emperor Xi Ling really wants to ease the relationship, it would be better to find the mastermind behind this assassination attempt. I believe that this would be more useful than anything else."

Dongfang Ye said that it would be better to use their power on someone else's territory.

"Will Zhu'er treat me better if I find out who he is?" Emperor Xi Ling looked expectantly at Xia Sizhu. He was completely like a father to her.

"Let's investigate the person first." Xia Si Zhu looked at Emperor Xi Ling and said. After she had said all that was on her mind, the fear in her heart lessened by quite a bit.

She could tell that the current Emperor Xi Ling looked exactly like the father in her previous life, but he had a completely different personality.

She didn't hate him that much, but she also couldn't let go of the small feelings in her heart.

Xia Sizhu's voice was very soft, but Emperor Xi Ling still heard it.

"Alright, alright, alright. I'll go investigate it right now!" When Emperor Xi Ling heard this, he was overjoyed. Then, he turned around and left.

"Do you have anyone in mind?" Dongfang Ye hugged Xia Sizhu and said softly.

"Yesterday was my first day in the West Tomb. Besides the empress, I didn't offend anyone."

Xia Sizhu's voice was soft and sweet, but Dongfang Ye could hear the extreme coldness in her tone.

"The moment Empress Zhu saw you, her expression was very strange. If your mother really was the Yu'er that Emperor Xi Ling spoke of, then someone must have done her good by chasing her all the way to the southern mausoleum."

Dongfang Ye said indifferently, but his eyes were deep in thought.

"I'll get Gu Xin to investigate this." Xia Sizhu emerged from Dongfang Ye's arms.

"I'll get you some preserves." Xia Sizhu stood up and prepared to take the candied fruits for Dongfang Ye. A grown man was still afraid of suffering.

"Ah Zhu, this isn't the sweet I want." Dongfang Ye rolled Xia Sizhu over with a flick of his sleeve.

"Didn't I tell you not to move? You actually used inner force, are you courting death? If you die, I won't give you a widow. I'll find someone else to marry. "

Xia Sizhu, who was dragged back, angrily glared at Dongfang Ye. Her face was filled with displeasure. His body was his own, and she didn't even know how to appreciate it. How could she not be angry?

"This little bit of inner strength is fine. I just want to tell you, I don't want any candied fruits."

Dongfang Ye rubbed his face against Xia Sizhu's hair, and took in a faint fragrance. Dongfang Ye relaxed quite a bit.

"Drink that medicine." Xia Sizhu placed the medicine in front of Dongfang Ye.

"I only said that I don't want the candied fruits, I didn't say that I don't want anything else." Dongfang Ye's gaze fell on Xia Sizhu's lips, his eyes a little gloomy.

"The medicine I accompanied before is much worse than this. I really don't know how you drank it. Tell me, what do you want?"

Xia Sizhu grumbled in dissatisfaction, not noticing Dongfang Ye's malicious gaze at all.

"This grandpa wants …" The rest of the words were drowned out by the kiss.

Dongfang Ye only let go of Xia Sizhu when she was out of breath.

"I got the medicine." Xia Sizhu's chest heaved up and down as her face turned slightly red.

Dongfang Ye's eyes burned hotter, "I don't want to drink medicine, I want to eat you."

"If the poison attacks your heart before you're done with your work, then just give it a try." Xia Si Zhu calmed his breathing and said.

"I won't give you the chance to get rid of me and get married. Just wait until I'm done."

Dong Fang Ye, who got the upper hand, stopped at once. Ah Zhu was already starting to blame him. If he could even kiss, how far could he go with meat? No!

Dongfang Ye picked up the medicine and drank it all in one gulp. He looked at Xia Sizhu as the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.

"Do you want to try the taste of the medicine?" Before Xia Sizhu could say no, her lips were sealed by Dongfang Ye.

As soon as the kiss was taken away, Xia Sizhu felt the light dim and the bitter light on her lips brighten.

"Rest well, I'll carry the bowl out." Xia Sizhu took the medicine bowl from Dongfang Ye's chest and left.

Dongfang Ye smiled at the direction that Xia Sizhu had left in before lying down to rest.

The moment he laid down, Dongfang Ye's face turned deathly white. He didn't know what poison he had been poisoned with, but with just that one movement, it had consumed all of his physical strength.

Afraid that Xia Sizhu would notice him, he could only use this method to divert her attention.
