It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

"Snapped."

The emperor slammed the memorial on the table. Shan Zhaoyi, who was kneeling under his angry eyes, said, "Tell me, what's going on?"

"I don't know, Your Majesty, please check it out."

Shan Zhaoyi was only happy for a few days, and one day the boomerang finally stabbed her.

"How could you not know? Look for yourself, what it says makes sense." The emperor picked up a memorial and smashed it on Shan Zhaoyi's forehead.

Shan Zhaoyi didn't even dare to say that she was in pain. She quickly picked up the memorial on the ground and began to read it carefully.

After reading it, her face changed drastically: "Impossible, this is slander, Your Majesty, this is absolutely slander, I am Shan Qing, how could it be Mu Qing, I don't even know who she is?"

"Then do you dare to swear in front of me that you are not Mu Qing and have no relationship with the Mu family?"

"I swear, if I tell a lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death." For Mu Qing, from the day she chose to be a single Qing, she had already put life and death aside. Even if the result was not satisfactory and she could not escape death, she would drag Yuan Buwei to take the blame. "Your Majesty, now that things have come to this, I have to say that the rumors about Madam Lu are all because...she and my brother had a relationship."

"What did you say?"

The emperor seemed to have heard something extraordinary and stood up suddenly: "What is it?"

"Originally, I promised my brother that I would keep this matter to myself, but now seeing how depressed he is, I feel worried..." Shan Zhaoyi wiped her tears and exaggerated the relationship between Yuan Buwei and Shan Ji.

Because the person being told was the emperor, even if Yuan Buwei knew about it, it would be useless for her to defend herself.

"How ridiculous!" The emperor was angry again. He was a brainless man who was led by the nose by a few words. "I saw that Yuan Buwei was a great doctor, and wanted to let her join the Imperial Hospital. But she not only rejected me, but also broke her heart. Someone, summon Yuan Buwei to the palace immediately. I want to interrogate her thoroughly."

When Yuan Buwei received the oral order, she was not nervous, but had a look of "it's finally here" on her face.

"Awei?" Lu Sui came up, "Are you really going?"

"The rumors are just a prelude. Since Mu Qing is pushing me to death, we don't need to show her any mercy." Yuan Buwei looked at Lu Sui, "Go to the Mu family as soon as possible. We will split into two groups."

"Okay, let's meet up at the palace."

Yuan Buwei realized from what happened in the Gale Camp that blindly ignoring them would only make them become more aggressive in harming innocent people. In order to put an end to this phenomenon, she was willing to take risks.

Half an hour later.

Yuan Buwei had already arrived at the emperor's study and knelt down to pay her respects: "I am Yuan Buwei, your humble servant, and I greet the emperor. Long live the emperor."

Silence, long silence.

It was not until Yuan Buwei felt the pain in her lower back that she heard the emperor's voice above her head: "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Yuan Buwei stood up, she lowered her head and said nothing.

"Yuan Buwei, I heard from Consort Shan that you and Shan Ji had a relationship? Is this true?"

"Yes."

Yuan Buwei admitted directly and generously: "Not only do I have feelings for Shan Ji, but I also grew up together. But if he hadn't abandoned me, I might have married him and become Mrs. Shan."

Shan Zhaoyi, who was standing behind the emperor, immediately looked up at Yuan Buwei in disbelief. How could she admit it so generously?

"Yuan Buwei..."

"Your Majesty, before I was granted marriage by you, I was also of marriageable age. It is normal for me to have feelings for someone I grew up with. But after I married Lu Sui, I learned to be a good wife and mistress. Unexpectedly, Shan Ji refused to let me go and thought I was treacherous. So I want to ask Your Majesty, if this happened to you, what should I do? Should I disregard the safety of everyone, disobey your order, and elope with Shan Ji, or should I choose to marry Lu Sui with pain and save everyone."

"Yuan Buwei, don't try to quibble. Do you know how badly you have hurt my brother?"

"Is he miserable?"

Yuan Buwei smiled: "Is he so miserable that he has become the only family member following you in the harem, and is so miserable that he eats lavishly and shows off his power every day? Shan Zhaoyi, I don't understand. What kind of misery do you mean? Is it that he can't get me?"

"You are still quibbling. You eat from the pot and look at the bowl. Are you worthy of Young Marquis Lu?"

I'm starting to use moral blackmail on myself again.

Yuan Buwei was really annoyed with her.

"Shan Zhaoyi, why are you just like Deputy General Mu before, always caring about my husband's affairs?" Yuan Buwei smiled and saw the guilty look on Shan Zhaoyi's face. "I didn't do anything. I just lived a good life with Lu Sui. Why do you think I'm bothering you?"

"Your Majesty, don't listen to Yuan Buwei. She did it on purpose..."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good."

The emperor's personal eunuch rushed in and interrupted Shan Zhaoyi's words: "Marquis Wanning, Young Marquis Lu, and the old master of the Mu family and the eldest son Mu Yu are all kneeling at the palace gate, asking to see you."

Shan Zhaoyi's heart skipped a beat, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes: "Your Majesty, they must be here to plead for Yuan Buwei, please don't..."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Another eunuch came in and interrupted Shan Zhaoyi again.

"Xie Lin'an, the young master of the Xie family, also knelt at the palace gate, asking to see the emperor."

Hearing Xie Linan's name, the emperor stood up and said, "Announce."

The originally tense atmosphere suddenly eased a lot as more people poured in.

"Avi."

The moment Lu Sui entered the room, he quickly walked towards Yuan Buwei, held her hand, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

"I am fine."

"I, a humble official, pay my respects to His Majesty."

A group of people knelt down and saluted the emperor.

"Everyone, get up."

The emperor looked at everyone and said, "I know why you are here, but I already understand what happened. I..."

"Your Majesty, do you want to separate me and Awei?" Lu Sui did not give the emperor face and interrupted him directly, "I know Awei's past and have been to Medicine King Valley. The past does not mean anything. I only know that Awei is my wife now. Whoever wants to separate us is our enemy."

"Your Majesty, I don't know what kind of evil things my son and daughter-in-law have done. Do you want to separate them, or are you dissatisfied with the Marquis Wanning's Mansion and want to destroy the entire Wanning Mansion? It just so happens that my family is here today. If you want to destroy it, just kill all of my family and we will be a family again in the underworld." After saying this, Marquis Wanning started to cry like a child.

His crying was beyond everyone's expectation.
