"Marquis Wanning, what's wrong with you? How old are you? Why are you still like a child, crying at the slightest prompt?" the emperor scolded.

"So what? My whole family is going to be wiped out, so why don't I cry a little?" Wan Ninghou became more excited as he spoke, "My life is so miserable, father, mother..."

The emperor was annoyed by the howling of Wan Ning Hou, and slammed the table fiercely: "Enough, when did I ever say that I would exterminate your entire family?"

"Bu Wei is Sui'er's lifeblood now. If anything happens to her, Sui'er will definitely fight you to the death, and my family will suffer." Wan Ning Hou looked innocent and spoke with details. "On one side is the emperor, and on the other side is my son. For me, both are my flesh and blood. What should I do? I can only sacrifice myself."

The emperor took a deep breath and looked at Lu Sui: "Lu Sui, is Yuan Buwei so important to you?"

"Yes." Lu Sui's eyes were full of determination. "To me, Awei's existence is more important than me. It is Awei that makes me find the meaning of existence in this world. But Awei never asks me to give her anything. Instead, she has been helping me grow. As her husband, if I can't stand up and clear everything for her when she is in danger and is surrounded by rumors, then what is the difference between me and those despicable men who abandon women after having sex, fall in love with every woman they meet, and use love as a capital to show off?!"

These words seem to be Lu Sui's confession.

In fact, ninety-nine percent of the men in Dazhao were shot.

The emperor is also included.

But the emperor couldn't refute it, because to refute him would be to put himself in his shoes, and the Lu family had been a monogamous family since their ancestors. Every generation of couples was very loving and would encourage family members to go out and explore the world.

So even though it seems that there are not many people in the Lu family now, as long as Marquis Wanning gives a call, even the Lu family members who are thousands of miles away will rush back to cheer for Marquis Wanning's Mansion.

"Lu Sui, you...you simply..." The emperor's face turned green with anger.

"emperor!"

It was Xie Linan's turn to speak. He pulled out a thick booklet from his sleeve and presented it with both hands: "This is the evidence I have collected from the Shan family after many investigations. It proves that there is no such person as Shan Qing in the Shan family."

Shan Qing was stunned and turned his head to stare at Xie Linan, his eyes full of questions.

"what?"

"You will know when you see it."

The emperor narrowed his eyes with doubt, took the booklet handed to him by the eunuch and started to look through it.

As he read on, he, who had been calm, suddenly threw the booklet at Shan Zhaoyi's head and said, "Bitch, you'd better give me a clear explanation."

Shan Zhaoyi hurriedly flipped through the book, took a look at it, and then cried out, "Your Majesty, this is slander. When I first entered the palace, I did come with my brother. They are also members of the Shan family. How could I have forged it?"

"Then do you know your brother's background?" Xie Linan asked with a smile.

"Of course I know my brother's background, Patriarch Xie, I have no grudge against you, why are you..."

"Don't be in a hurry to feel wronged." Xie Lin'an chuckled and took out a letter from his arms. "It just so happens that our Xie family has some friendship with the Shan family. I went through many ways to get in touch with the deputy head of the Shan family. The letter said that Shan Ji is indeed a member of the Shan family, but his parents left the Shan family and were hunted to the Medicine King Valley. This means that the entire Shan family is his enemy, but he returned to the Shan family for power, and he also promised to collect ten battle formation diagrams for the Shan family, on the condition that he would become the head of the Shan family."

When the emperor heard the words “collect ten battle formation diagrams”, his pupils shrank and he clenched his hands instinctively.

"But the Shan family is such a big family, basically more stable than the Xie family. Shan Ji wants to get the position of the family head by collecting ten battle formation diagrams. Not to mention that he is daydreaming, just ask the other respected elders of the Shan family, will they let a descendant who once betrayed the family be the family head? If Shan Ji becomes the family head, the first thing he will do is to uproot the original core organization of the Shan family?"

Xie Linan saw that Shan Zhaoyi's face was losing color bit by bit, and a sarcastic smile formed on his lips: "But it is human nature for Shan Zhaoyi to be deceived. After all, Shan Ji rescued you from the Dali Temple, and it is understandable that you want to repay him."

Yuan Buwei's frowning brows relaxed after hearing Xie Linan's words.

Wan Ning Hou was shocked: "What, Shan Zhaoyi is really Mu Qing?"

"I am not. I am Shan Qing, not Mu Qing at all..."

"Mu Qing, how much more do you want to quibble?" Master Mu, who had been silent the whole time, scolded her, "When you and Shan Ji went to the Gale Camp before, Yu'er recognized you at first sight."

"I don't know what you are talking about, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am really a single person, I know nothing..."

"Shan Zhaoyi, Xie Lin'an just said that Shan Ji wants to collect ten battle formation diagrams. Are you aware of this?" The emperor calmed down and recalled the days he spent with Shan Zhaoyi. He gradually remembered something.

"I don't know. My brother has never told me anything."

"Oh? Really?" The emperor sneered, "Then why did you always refuse to leave after serving me in bed, saying that you wanted to stay with me for a while longer and even go to my study? How do you explain it?"

"I am stupid and afraid that you will only favor me temporarily, so I thought that I should do more so that you can favor me longer." Shan Zhaoyi cried, "It may be because I look like Mu Qing that Madam Lu felt a sense of crisis, so she framed me. I can understand her."

He has done so many bad things, but he still pretends to be magnanimous.

When Lu Sui was about to argue with her, Yuan Buwei stopped him, shook her head, and looked at Shan Zhaoyi: "You are the emperor's concubine, why should I feel a sense of crisis towards you? You are the emperor's beloved concubine, and the young marquis is the emperor's beloved minister. These two relationships are completely unrelated, so how can you interpret them as me feeling a sense of crisis towards you? Where does this sense of crisis come from?"

"How should I know? Only you know best." Shan Zhaoyi's eyes were evasive, not daring to look Yuan Buwei in the eye.

"Unless there is a situation that will make you hold on to me tightly."

"Mrs. Lu, I have no grudge against you, you..."

"Your Majesty, only if she is Mu Qing will she keep holding on to me. Please think carefully..." Yuan Buwei couldn't say it directly and let the emperor make his own judgment. After all, he had already begun to doubt Shan Zhaoyi.

"Your Majesty, please don't believe her lies. I am a pure concubine. If you don't believe me, I am willing to die to prove my loyalty."

"If you are not Mu Qing, you should argue with reason. Why do you want to die?"

Everyone turned around.

I found out that it was Princess Jinghe who came.
