After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

He removed the sign and closed the palace, refusing to sleep with him.

At that time, he was also unwilling to admit defeat. He felt that he had given the best to Hyomin, but Hyomin was still not satisfied. She actually wanted him to abandon the harem and favor only her... How was that possible?

He is the emperor!

In order to compete with Hyomin, he held a large number of talent shows and treated everyone equally... He wanted to let her know that it is right for a man to have three wives and four concubines, let alone a man who is the emperor?

He just wanted Hyomin to bow her head, but she never did until her death.

Passed away?

Only the three of them, father and son, knew that Hyomin was not dead.

On that night, he was reviewing memorials in the Yangxin Palace when Zhao Cong and Cheng Qian rushed in and said that Xiaomin was missing.

Hearing the sound, he ran over in a hurry, but found the room empty.

Hyomin is really gone.

Only he and his full of regret were left.

The two children asked him where their mother had gone.

He thought, she should go home...

Hyomin said that she was not from this world, she came from a place called China. She said that a man there could only marry one wife, so she could not tolerate his three thousand concubines.

She said, if you can't, don't bother me, I don't want a rotten cucumber.

She said, don’t blame Concubine Shu, women in feudal society all have a hard life, she is just the cause of our argument, the important thing is that you refused to agree to my request.

Yes, he still can't figure it out until now. Men are superior to women, the wife is the head of the husband, and it is very common to have three wives and four concubines.

But he knew that he had regretted it a long time ago.

What beauties in the harem? He actually only loves Hyomin. Those people are useless to him. Why is he so obsessed with them?

For a group of irrelevant people, he lost Hyomin...

Originally they had wished to stay together for the rest of their lives, but now, he was the only one left.

He is already half buried in the earth, and probably, he will never see Hyomin again in this life.

He really... missed her...

Seeing Emperor Jianxi taking out Empress Xiaomin's belongings again and recalling her, Wu Yonggui sighed silently.

Then he retreated quietly.

However, when he reached the door, the voice of Emperor Jianxi sounded behind him, low and hoarse, "Issue an order to have Huai'an move out of the palace within half a month!"

The tone was understated, full of the indifference of a superior.

"Whoo!"

After Wu Yonggui left, Emperor Jianxi took out the test paper that was under the memorial and tore it into pieces with an expressionless face.

When the decree arrived at Zhongcui Palace, the room fell into silence.

Zhao Yao couldn't believe what she heard...

Her father drove her out of the palace. Where should she go?

She was not like Zhao Ying. She was married to the Huns before she built a palace outside the palace. She did not have a princess's palace.

After returning from the Xiongnu, she built Jinghui Temple. However, after Jinghui Temple was burned down, Emperor Jianxi originally assigned people to repair it for her. But when Zhao Ying made a fuss last time, Emperor Jianxi ordered the work to be stopped and assigned soldiers to guard Kanshan.

She has no husband's family to rely on...

My father is too cruel.

It was just a small mistake!

If it was Zhao Ying who did it, he probably wouldn't even punish her!

The more Zhao Yao thought about it, the more hateful she became. She hated Emperor Jianxi's partiality, hated Zhao Ying for getting all the favor, and hated her mother for being useless and not even getting a shred of love from Emperor Jianxi. As a son's status was based on her mother's, she couldn't even get any benefits from Concubine Shu!

What should she do now?

She didn't even have the money to build her own house!

Now, she is really in dire straits.

Zhao Yao smashed everything in the hall before he calmed down.

She called Lin, handed the test paper to her, and gave her two instructions, "Remember, if something goes wrong, it will be your fault. If you tell anyone about me, I will be finished. My mother is still here, and you and your child will be buried with me!"

Zhao Yao's eyes were filled with madness.

Lin was so scared that she nodded repeatedly.

Lin left the palace with the test questions.

As for Shangguan Shu, he took the same approach as Zhao Ying.

Shangguan Shu framed Liu Hai with the test questions, and then told the prince to go to Prime Minister Liu's residence to arrest him... No matter how dumb the prince was, he understood the subsequent steps. Liu Hai was Prime Minister Liu's eldest son, and although he was not talented, Prime Minister Liu had to protect him for the sake of his heirs and his official reputation.

After catching the criminal red-handed, the prince did Prime Minister Liu a favor, and the two of them agreed to hand over Zhou Changsheng.

The prince and Zhao Ying also agreed to arrest Lin...

That night, after dinner, the prince took his men and went out with his hands behind his back.

There was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

This couple is really interesting...

It’s time to fight in the ring.

Then he will see who is more accurate!

The prince swaggered into Prime Minister Liu's residence and was about to arrest someone.

Prime Minister Liu's residence was brightly lit and in chaos.

Prime Minister Liu was extremely angry and said that if the prince could find the culprit, he would immediately die to apologize!

As soon as Liu Xiang finished speaking, Lin and Liu Hai looked at Liu Xiang tremblingly...

Then, all the test papers that he hadn't handed in yet were searched out one by one...

The first person to be searched was Liu Hai. Liu Hai was caught red-handed. He immediately knelt down, explained the whole story in tears, and then begged Prime Minister Liu and Lin to save him.

Lin couldn't believe it, but since Liu Hai had been found, it meant that she was safe. Although Lin loved her children, she was selfish by nature. She only wanted to save her own life at this moment, so she didn't care about anything else.

He twisted his handkerchief and complained, "Brother Hai, you are so confused!"

As for Liu Xiang, his eyes went dark and he almost died.

He glanced at the prince, then at his good-for-nothing son. He pointed at Liu Hai with his old body, jumped up and down, and cursed, with spit flying everywhere.

He scolded for about half a cup of tea, and only stopped when Prime Minister Liu was exhausted and his face turned pale. Then he knelt down in front of the prince and begged for mercy.

The prince saw this and hurriedly stopped him, "No hurry, no hurry!"

There is one more!

The prince sent people to search for Lin again.

Lin was panic-stricken and screamed loudly, having already lost the dignity of a court lady.

Seeing this, Liu Xiang was completely dumbfounded.

He stared blankly at the two maids brought by the prince to search Lin's body... He said why did the prince bring two maids?

After a moment, Lin fell to the ground with despair.

The nanny handed over the paper.

When the prince saw the things on it, he couldn't help laughing.

He pursed his lips, frowned, and looked filled with bitterness and hatred.

Actual heart: Hahahahahahaha…

Ying'er and Runzhi...

Ying'er said that it was Lin who leaked the questions, and Runzhi framed Liu Hai...

Why don’t the two of them discuss it in bed? Instead of Runzhi going through the trouble of framing someone, why not... Oh, that’s not right. If you look at it this way, then aren’t there two real culprits?

Zhou Changsheng and Lin?

Oh, he has such a bad year. It's just an exam, why does everyone want to leak the questions?

Liu Xiang leaned over to look at the paper, then he burped, his eyes rolled back, and he fell straight down.

"Liu Xiang!"

"master!"

"father!"

The prince was stunned. Hey, Lao Deng, don’t die. If you die, who will I be hired as a prostitute?
