Bai Hui is indeed not feeling well now.

Last night, King Jin asked everyone else to leave and interrogated him alone.

And since it was a trial, King Jin naturally could not treat him well.

The interrogation lasted almost until dawn.

He was asked a lot of questions, but he actually knew nothing about the barbarians. However, the King of Jin wanted him to recall what his grandfather had done and said.

It was very trivial, but the King of Jin probably felt that he could unravel the truth from those details.

He was interrogated all night and is in a really bad mood now.

In addition, since his daughter had such an incident, he was worried about how King Jin would deal with her, and his heart was tense.

King Jin also asked him about the thing he had lost and asked him to draw it carefully.

His painting skills were very average, and no one knew how King Jin judged it. After just one drawing, he was very sure that it would be very different from the real thing. He revised it three or four times. Later, after repeated revisions, he had no choice but to remember the thing more clearly. In the end, he finally drew what the thing looked like.

"Father, mother."

When Shui Xin saw them, she became a little excited and walked towards them quickly.

Aunt Yao supported her and looked at her.

Shui Xin was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday and looked like she hadn't washed much, but it was obvious that she was in good condition.

"That's good, that's good." Aunt Yao felt relieved and said thankfully, "It seems the princess is very kind."

Shui Xin did all those things, but Lu Zhaoling didn't do anything to her. Judging from Shui Xin's appearance, at least she was not hungry or thirsty.

As for washing herself, she didn't even dare to think about it. After all, she was a prisoner, so how could she expect someone to help her bathe?

Shui Xin didn't expect that her mother would also start calling her princess.

She found that her family members had a very good impression of Lu Zhaoling.

"Well, she didn't make things difficult for me." Shui Xin lowered her head and spoke in a lower voice.

Lu Zhaoling is such a nice person, if I ask her for help...

This thought popped up in her mind again and she couldn't suppress it no matter what.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Shui Xin looked at her father again. From here, Bai Hui's condition was the worst.

Bai Hui opened his mouth.

My daughter doesn’t even know that they are barbarians.

In the past, they had never thought about it that way and were certain that she was from the Great Zhou. Now, if Shui Xin knew that she was actually a barbarian, what would she think?

"It's okay." Bai Hui didn't say it.

Aunt Yao looked at him, her expression also somewhat worried.

"We'll all beg the prince later. Shui Xin, you have to admit your mistakes, okay? If the prince wants to punish you, you have to admit it..."

At this moment, Aunt Yao was actually just thinking about saving Shui Xin's life.

Whether he was to be beaten or thrown into jail, she had already prepared herself mentally.

Although Shui Xin was possessed by a ghost, what she did was wrong. After all, he was His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin. If he really wanted to punish her, it was reasonable.

As long as Shui Xin's life can be saved, they can beg the prince sincerely later. Maybe after a while, when the prince's anger has subsided, he will let them go.

Shui Xin bit her lower lip and nodded.

"Mom, I will definitely admit my mistake."

She didn't want to escape this.

"Where are my uncle and aunt?" Shui Xin asked again.

When these words were spoken, Aunt Yao and the others looked a little strange and embarrassed.

Although Shui Xin roughly remembered what happened yesterday, she didn't remember it very clearly. What she could remember were mostly scenes and fragments related to herself.

For example, when it came to the matter of her aunt and the male ghost in white, she didn't remember much.

I knew a male ghost came out, but it wasn't very clear.

Xiaoqin's eyes suddenly turned red.

She was relieved to see Shui Xin returned safely, but the matter of her parents made her feel extremely heavy.

"They, they are sick." Xiaoqin said.

In fact, her father was finding it hard to accept the fact and vomited blood and fainted.

There was something wrong with her mother, not just that she was possessed by a ghost. The interrogation last night revealed that the reason she was possessed by a ghost was because she had initially given in to greed, wanting to steal all of Aunt Yao's money.

Later, when her brother got into trouble, she conspired with her mother's family on how to deceive Bai Hui and Aunt Yao.

When Shui Xin was eight years old, she often used her beauty to take advantage of others.

She had also had affairs with other men and done things that let her father down.

Xiaoqin felt heavy in her heart, but she just didn't want Shuixin to worry about her now.

Shui Xin didn't notice anything wrong with them and didn't ask any further questions.

"Where is the prince? Why hasn't he come yet?" She looked outside the hall.

Aunt Yao was stunned for a moment because Shui Xin was actually a little anxious.

You should be afraid of seeing the prince now, right?

Isn't she afraid that the prince will punish her? She's actually hoping for the prince to come quickly?

But just when Aunt Yao began to doubt, Zhou Shiyue arrived.

When Shui Xin saw him appear, her heart started beating like thunder, her cheeks flushed, and her ears felt a little hot.

Zhou Shiyue just glanced at her, walked past them, and sat down in the main seat.

Qinglin, Qingfeng and the others also stood at the back with their hands down.

Nanny Qing personally brewed tea and brought it over.

She also glanced at Shui Xin. As expected, Miss Lu was gentle and kind, and Shui Xin was fine.

However, when Nanny Qing saw Shui Xin looking shyly at the prince, her heart skipped a beat.

Shui Xin's eyes...

Aunt Yao had already dragged her husband and daughter to kneel in the hall, and Xiaoqin immediately knelt down as well.

"Your Highness, Shui Xin has regained consciousness. Now we will all obey your orders." Aunt Yao said.

She tugged at Shui Xin's sleeve.

Shui Xin knelt on the ground and said sincerely, "Your Highness, Miss Lu has already caught the evil spirit that was attached to me last night. I am very grateful to Miss Lu. But I did do something wrong and almost harmed Your Highness. No matter how Your Highness punishes me, I will never complain."

Aunt Yao felt a little relieved.

It’s good that Shui Xin can think this way.

No matter how much she felt sorry for him, she would have to endure it even if the prince ordered her to be half-aborted.

But Nanny Qing, who had just come out of the palace, frowned when she heard Shui Xin's words, feeling that something was wrong.

Before she could figure out what was wrong, the prince spoke in a slightly cold tone.

"Do you have any complaints when it's your turn?"

Shui Xin's body stiffened and she subconsciously looked up at him.

King Jin sat there, distant and indifferent, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Aunt Yao and the others suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Your Highness..." Aunt Yao was begging for mercy when Lu Zhaoling arrived.

Lu Zhaoling came over now, bringing a few people with him.

After she came in, she walked to the seat next to Zhou Shiyue and sat down. Qingyin, Qingbao, Qingyu, Qingsong, Qingbai and others stood solemnly behind her.

Shui Xin looked up and found that her ceremony was even more grand than that of Prince Jin.

It looks like being surrounded by people.

She was stunned.

Lu Zhaoling glanced at her and also felt that the girl's eyes were a little strange.

"Where are we talking about?" she asked.
