With the comfort of his brother-in-law, Su Xun finally calmed down.

Although his brother-in-law has no power now, he can still give Su Xun a full sense of security.

He stopped making trouble and joined the Changlin Army under the arrangement of his brother-in-law.

Since he stopped making a fuss, Qin Ke naturally stopped making a fuss too.

After being hung by his father for a day and then let down, he limped to the Changlin Army and went through the back door.

At this time in the palace.

After being silent for a day and a night, the old emperor finally got up and went to Rongfei Palace.

It's more like escape than silence...

But when the inner torment reaches a certain level, the seed of wanting to know the truth breaks through the ground...

He wants to know the truth of what happened back then.

Which one is his and Cher's child?

In his heart, he hoped it was Xiao Junan, and he hoped that all this was Chu Zhaoyu's means of revenge against him...

But what if it's not...

His cold son...

The night is as dark as ink, silent and depressing.

The old emperor felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his heart. Every step he took was heavy and full of struggle...

At this time, Concubine Rong was sleeping, and the moonlight was shining on her pale face. Although she looked a little haggard, it still did not affect her beauty. Her long and curly eyelashes trembled slightly, and she was still shivering even in her sleep. It can be seen that she was walking on thin ice during this period.

Looking at this beautiful face, the old emperor did not wake her up.

When they first met under the osmanthus tree that year, she was dancing in the wind in a white dress like a fairy. Her smile was as bright as the sun, and it caught his eyes directly. He naturally liked her at that time, but fate played a trick on him. At the palace banquet the next day, he met the love of his life.

Ouyang Xue, she is fresh and refined, like an orchid in the mountains blooming her beauty. Her eyes are as clear as water, as if they can see into people's hearts. His heart completely fell at that moment.

He is the emperor and the ruler of this world, but he doesn't understand what love is?

But as soon as Ouyang Xue appeared, he only had eyes for her. From then on, he put all his thoughts on her.

Even after many years, she is still the irreplaceable mole in his heart.

But he forgot what she looked like... How ironic...

That day, Xiao Hanye was forced into a desperate situation by him. He had never shown his weak side in front of him, but that day, for the sake of his own wife and children, he cried and begged him to let his wife and children go, and he would bear all the blame alone...

At that time, his eyes were sad and helpless, exactly the same as when Xue'er held his hand before she died, with a pair of watery eyes asking him to take good care of their only child...

He clearly felt something unusual at first...

But he cruelly asked someone to dig out his eyes...

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a pang of pain in his heart. Enduring the pain, his eyes flashed, and he slapped Rong Fei hard on the face, waking her up with great force.

Then, without any regal manners, he grabbed her by the collar and angrily asked, "Bitch, which one is your son or Chu Zhaoyu's?"

In the past, because of Xiao Yihang's background, the old emperor did not come to question Concubine Rong.

At that time, he cared about his position as the emperor and his dignity as a man. He would never humiliate himself for the question "Who is his son?", or throw the last bit of his dignity as a man to the ground and rub it repeatedly!

Not to mention that he was the emperor, even if he was just an ordinary man, this was the most intolerable thing.

But at this moment he had to come for the sake of his and Ouyang Xue's son.

Which one is his son?

Even though all signs indicate that Xiao Hanye is his and Ouyang Xue's son.

Even if he thinks so in his heart...

But he was stubborn and wanted her to tell it herself. He knew that the answer she gave would not be true, but he still insisted on asking.

Because he was afraid...

A fear I've never felt before sprouted in my heart...

"Ah!" Concubine Rong was caught off guard and received a heavy slap in the face while she was sleeping. She was awakened with a buzzing in her ears. She looked at the old emperor with a sinister face and asked questions. She couldn't hear clearly what he was asking, but even though she couldn't hear clearly, she knew what it was.

Although she was imprisoned by the old emperor, he did not restrict others from entering and leaving her bedroom. Otherwise, how could he rely on her to lure Chu Zhaoyu out?

But Chu Zhaoyu did not come, which attracted Concubine Yin to come frequently.

Concubine Yin's son suffered a loss at the hands of Prince Yan, so she wanted to get revenge on him.

Her son enjoyed all the respect that only the King of Yan deserved since he was born, so what did the backlash and pain that she, as a mother, suffered matter to her?

It's nothing.

Now her Hang'er has returned alive and well, and her An'er has been named the crown prince.

As long as her two sons are safe, all her sacrifices are worth it.

But everything was clearly moving in a good direction, so why did the evil King Yan come back again?

Not only did he come back, he also dealt them a fatal blow head-on!

How could he do this?

How come he is so lucky?

When he was young, he couldn't be killed by torture, poison, or assassination...

He is like a cat with nine lives, and you can't kill him.

At this moment, she really regretted not taking a gamble and killing him with one knife when he was a child.

Thinking of this, a hint of murderous intent flashed across her eyes, but then she put on her weak mask that had not changed for thousands of years. She covered her aching cheek with her hand and trembled as she said, "Your Majesty..."

Most men like women to show their weak side to them, because it can make them look more powerful, but at the moment the old emperor is extremely disgusted by this. He hates Concubine Rong's debauchery, licentiousness and filthiness, and he hates her cunning even more.

As an emperor, he never had to do such trivial things as torturing people himself.

But at this moment, looking at Concubine Rong's pitiful appearance, he was extremely angry, even more angry than if she had cheated on him.

She actually teamed up with Chu Zhaoyu to direct such a big drama.

Although there is no definite evidence, the old emperor has already leaned towards rumors...

"Pa!" Another loud slapping sound.

After beating her, the old emperor threw her back with great force, then stood up, took the whip that Jiang Shou handed to him, and swung it down with a "snap".

"If you won't tell me, go to hell!"

With all his rage, the old emperor whipped the woman on the couch like a bloodthirsty demon.

Concubine Rong was beaten very painfully. She curled up and sobbed, "Ah! Your Majesty... You can't convict me based on rumors spread by people with ulterior motives... Rumors are just rumors... You know Chu Zhaoyu... He can't stand seeing our Beixiao Dynasty getting better... He first used the words of the celestial phenomena to get rid of Han'er... Now he's using the same old trick to kill the heart... to get rid of the prince..."

She couldn't understand why rumors alone wouldn't make the old emperor lose his composure to such an extent.

Hearing this, the old emperor became even more furious. He whipped Concubine Rong again, leaving a hideous cut on her fair face. He said sinisterly, "Rumors may be rumors... Ye Ying's accusation may be a conspiracy by Chu Zhaoyu... But objective things will not lie..."

After that, he threw down the whip, glared at Rong Fei from above, and said word by word: "Han'er's eyes are very much like Xue'er's... How do you explain it?"
