Mu Zhihuan's heart skipped a beat. If that was the case, then she would really be blind and wouldn't know anything.

"Yes."

The voice paused for a moment, and then said with an imposing tone, "Raise your head."

Mu Zhihuan nervously raised her head, and only now did she realise that beside the Dragon Throne, stood a luxuriously dressed woman with an extraordinary temperament.

Looking at the woman's arrogant appearance, Mu Zhihuan could roughly guess who she was.

Since it was this Consort Xian, then it must be Hua Song's problem. Seems like I have overdone it, Hua Song will immediately inform Consort Xian.

But since she was in the right, Mu Zhihuan was not afraid.

The person on the high platform gave a light snort, but no one could tell that he was being complimented. "With such looks, no wonder it caused such a storm in the city."

Storm of the city?

Mu Zhihuan thought that from the moment she teleported to now, she had been very low-key?

Other than opening a makeup shop, and accidentally muttering a few lines of ancient poems in the brothel which had been praised by everyone, how did it become a storm in the city?

Out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at Jiang Zisu and discovered that he had a very serious expression on his face.

It's over! Mu Zhihuan's heart instantly sank to the bottom. Could this Consort Xian have some sort of proof?

Mu Zhihuan pursed her lips, pretending that she did not understand: "I do not understand Your Majesty's words."

"Heh, you don't understand?"

The Consort Xian by her side ridiculed, and her harsh voice made Mu Zhihuan think that it was Yang Qiuyu who had entered her body.

"Not only do you have a close relationship with the crown prince of Great Yan, you actually dare to bring the heir of the Prince Lee to stroll around the brothel.

The Consort Xian laughed disdainfully: "It's not self-sufficient for you to use such a dirty method to marry the Prince Lee, and you want to use the same trick to seduce the Great Yan's crown prince again? Mu Zhihuan, you really have quite a few legends …"

"What?"

Had she never done all this well? Using a plan to marry Jiang Zisu was his previous self, not him, and furthermore, seduce Gu Mingxuan? What kind of joke was this?

Mu Zhihuan looked up at the Consort Xian and the Emperor, her expression neither humble nor haughty. "This is merely a market gossip, the Emperor is wise, it is still possible to determine the truth."

Although that was what she said, Mu Zhihuan's heart was still a little uneasy. With just these few words, Consort Xian dared to interrogate the Emperor in front of so many ministers.

Just as expected, after Mu Zhihuan defended herself, the Consort Xian snorted coldly, causing people to bring an old man wearing a straw hat. Mu Zhihuan immediately recognized who she was.

His heart suddenly sank. Why was this candy seller here?

Consort Xian's voice was ice-cold. "This old one asks you, what did you see outside the Great Yan crown prince's residence a few days ago?"

The old man had been scared to the point that his face had turned pale. Sweat was dripping down his wrinkled face.

"Return... Returning Mother, f * ck … This commoner can see that this Prince Lee Concubine … He wandered around the house of the Crown Prince of Great Yan alone for a long time. "

"Then... Then, a luxuriously dressed woman walked out of the house, and the Great Yan crown prince saw her to the door. After seeing that the richly dressed woman had left, the Prince Lee Concubine … "But, he's been hiding behind a stone pillar the entire time …"

"Just when this commoner was curious about what had happened to her, I saw that the Great Yan Crown Prince had discovered her. The moment Great Yan Crown Prince walked in front of the Prince Lee's wife, it seemed like he was asking her about it, and then this commoner saw her fall straight into the arms of the Great Yan Crown Prince …"

Mu Zhihuan heard the scene in front of him that seemed to have reverted back to reality. She thought that this old man did not make up any nonsense, but the words that came out of his mouth became very strange.

What kind of person was Consort Xian, to be able to crawl and crawl in this position for so long in the imperial harem, her eyes were extremely vicious.

It saw through the guilt underneath Mu Zhihuan's stiff expression with a glance and snorted lightly, "Mu Zhihuan, is this true?"

It's here! It's here! How could she explain that?

Mu Zhihuan could only force out a laugh: "It's true."

"Pah!" All of a sudden, the emperor who'd been watching from the sidelines suddenly slapped his hand on the table in front of him, causing a loud noise to ring out.

In an instant, everyone kneeled down and begged the Emperor to calm his anger. As long as Mu Zhihuan stopped standing there with her back against the wall, she would feel extremely guilty, but her expression was still as calm and unmoved as ever.

The ministers did not expect Mu Zhihuan to not even put the emperor in her eyes, and could not help but take in a breath of cold air.

The veins on Jiang Zisu's hand popped out. There were several times that he wanted to try and tug at the corner of Mu Zhihuan's clothes, but he firmly pulled on his fist in front of the emperor's furious gaze.

Seeing that Mu Zhihuan did not kneel and still had an innocent look on her face, the Emperor instantly bellowed, "You are such a water prodigy, yet you still do not know how to repent? Someone come and drag her down and put her in the water prison! "

Upon hearing about the water prison, Jiang Zisu could not help but move his knees and pray, "Father … I can't! That water prison is still a place where felons who deserve to die a thousand times are imprisoned. Mu Zhihuan is just a woman … "Once you're locked in the water prison, you'll die for sure …"

The emperor's dignified eyes coldly glanced at Jiang Zisu, and his voice did not contain the slightest emotion a relative should have, "She has degrading the dignity of the imperial family, and he deserves to die a thousand deaths. The prison of water is already considered a small punishment."

"If I remember correctly, Prince Lee has never liked this wangfei and wants to plead for mercy today? Could it be … She is close to the Great Yan Crown Prince, is he someone that you can benefit from? "

With just that one question, it had turned the family's affairs into national affairs. As long as they did not say anything, forget about Mu Zhihuan, even their entire Prince Lee's Mansion would be dragged down into the water.

Suddenly, the joints on Jiang Zisu's fingers turned green and white because of the excessive force.

"It's not … The Father was, after all, Ran'er's mother … If she died like this, Ran'er would be very sad. "

Upon hearing that Jiang Zisu was doing it for his own grandson, the emperor's complexion improved a little.

Just as the atmosphere became tense, Mu Zhihuan suddenly laughed in a low voice.

Although that voice was very soft, it echoed throughout the entire palace hall, causing everyone who heard it to feel a chill run down their spines.

"Hehe, it's really funny, I admit that what the candy buyer said was true, but did I say that Consort Xian's words were true?"

The sneer on his face stunned everyone in the hall. No one had expected that there would be someone who would dare to be so impudent in front of the Son of Heaven.

Consort Xian scolded with a sinister smile: "Insolent bastard Mu Zhihuan! You are actually disrespectful to the emperor! The punishment shall be death! "

At first, she was a little afraid of the emperor. After all, in this era, the emperor was a role that was equivalent to the practice of the twenty-first century.

However, after what had happened just now, this Emperor might not be an unconscious monarch, but he definitely was not an enlightened monarch.
