Long Sui had been restless ever since the little emperor left, so he changed his clothes and went to the Regent's Palace without waiting until tomorrow.

"General Long, please forgive me. The prince is not seeing anyone right now."

"Excuse me, could you please go in and inform me?"

Long Sui didn't want to give up, so he had to ask the guards to inform them.

If that doesn't work, she might just force her way in.

Fortunately, when the guards came back, they agreed to let her in.

On the way to the study, Long Sui observed that the expressions of every servant were not quite right and no one was smiling.

The entire palace was dead silent, without a trace of life.

She wanted to ask the servants what happened between Xie Yue and Lu Shi that caused them to quarrel, but as soon as she mentioned Lu Shi's name, the servants hurriedly retreated, leaving her with only one message, asking her not to get involved.

It seems to be really tricky.

The key is that she doesn't know the reason yet, and I don't know where to start to persuade her.

I just hope that the news she brings can make Xie Yue let go of his resentment for the time being.

The guard pushed open the tightly closed door and said, "Your Highness, General Long has arrived."

"General Long, please!"

The guard closed the door again after Long Sui entered the study.

The room was pitch black, with no candles lit, the doors and windows tightly closed, and the faint moonlight outside couldn't get in at all.

Long Sui could only rely on his extraordinary eyesight to carefully look around the room.

There was no one at the top, and finally I saw a dark shadow at the corner of the table.

The sight was unclear, and Long Sui frowned, feeling as if she was going blind. "Queen, why don't you light the lamp?"

"Don't call me queen!"

In the darkness, Long Sui could not see Xie Yue's expression, and could only hear the coldness in his voice.

She lowered her eyes, pretending not to know about his quarrel with Lu Shi, and teased with a smile, "I don't know who made me call her Queen the day after our wedding. I don't know who it was, Prince, was that person you?"

"No."

Hey, why are you still denying it!

Long Sui was about to expose the lie, but Xie Yue's next words made her stunned on the spot.

"That man is dead."

"Hahaha, damn, how is that possible? Stop joking, aren't you right here?"

The only sound in the air was her voice, and nothing else could be heard.

Long Sui stopped laughing and his expression became complicated.

"What happened between you and the little emperor? There's something wrong with her, and there's something wrong with you too."

"Didn't I just come back and see her? Did she come to you to lobby for you?"

Xie Yue's voice was hoarse, as if squeezed out from sand, hoarse and mocking.

"No, but do you know why she came to me?"

"I don't know, and I don't want to know." Xie Yue replied indifferently.

"You don't want to hear it but I'm going to tell you!"

"She no longer wants the throne and gave me an imperial decree of abdication."

As Long Sui spoke, he took out the imperial edict from the box he brought.

He raised his feet and slowly approached the dark shadow. "I've brought the imperial edict. Do you want to see it?"

"But it's so dark in here, let me light a lamp for you."

"No, I don't want to watch." Xie Yue suddenly became excited and was very disgusted with Long Sui's act of lighting the lamp.

"She has no real power. Without me to help her, she won't be able to stay in that position for long. Sooner or later, she will be torn apart by those court officials and end up in a miserable state."

"She is very smart. She knew to get out of this power vortex as soon as possible, and she gave you the throne as a favor."

"She's calculated so meticulously, worthy of her, to be able to trick this king."

Xie Yue did not hesitate to speculate about Lu Shi with the greatest malice.

Only in this way will he not be soft-hearted again and be deceived again.

Long Sui couldn't believe that these words came out of Xie Yue's mouth.

It seemed that the misunderstanding between the two was no longer something she could resolve.

But knowing that Lu Shi would not live long, Long Sui still couldn't help but want to speak for Lu Shi.

"You don't have to say such harsh words just because you had an argument with her. Fortunately, she is not here now, otherwise you can't take back what you said."

The worst thing for couples is to say the most hurtful words when they are most irrational.

She has never been in love, but she knows that the most important thing between lovers is to cherish and trust each other.

Xie Yue sneered, and the quiet study was filled with his sarcastic laughter.

"Do you know who she is? Jia Ming, do you still remember her? Do you know who the person was who spent one million taels of gold to take my life?"

"Did she admit it herself?" Long Sui widened his eyes.

"Correct!"

Long Sui was shocked. So that's how it is. So that's how it is.

No wonder, no wonder the two of them quarreled so fiercely.

If it was really done by the little emperor, then is she really as innocent as she appears to be?

She just said that she has a terminal illness. Is that true?

Are you planning to use her to find Xie Yue?

Long Sui didn't understand.

But she was still willing to believe that a person was vicious and would not risk her life to deceive others. After all, it was a lie that was so easy to expose.

And there were only one or two days left, so she was willing to bet that Lu Shi was telling the truth.

Otherwise, not only Xie Yue, but she too would regret it.

Thinking of this, Long Sui decided to tell the truth.

"The young emperor abdicated to me because she was ill and only had one or two days left."

After Long Sui finished speaking, there was silence in the study for several minutes.

After a long moment, Xie Yue sarcastically said, "She's always lying. Do you really think that someone who was fine yesterday has a terminal illness today?"

"Have you never doubted it?"

"It seems that you have been deceived by her too."

What Xie Yue said made sense, and Long Sui thought that he might have really been cheated.

But even if there was a 90% chance of being cheated, she couldn't bear the consequences of the remaining 10%.

"I think whether it's true or not, you should go and see it, at least to avoid any regrets."

Long Sui really didn't know what to say. She just said this and left the Regent's Palace with the imperial edict.

She had brought the message home, and she didn't care what Xie Yue would do.

The study returned to silence, and the dark shadow beside the desk remained motionless.

"Host, are you really not going to go and take a look? Maybe it's true?"

"And then? If it's true, should I save her? Should I use the points I worked so hard to earn to save her?"

"I've already overdrawn my points once because of her, and now I have to pay for all my points for her again."

The system didn't understand, "Didn't you say it was worth it?"

"It's not worth it now..."

That person was no longer the Majesty he knew.

His Majesty is simple and a little scheming is not annoying.

His Majesty's handwriting is not good, it is crooked like a dog's crawl, and it lacks the free and unrestrained style.

His Majesty is not smart and does not have the ability to pretend to be Jia Ming and hire someone to kill someone so that he won't be able to find out.

His Majesty died yesterday.

The one now is not worth it.

In the darkness, Xie Yue couldn't see anything else, but he knew how bad he was at the moment, so bad that he didn't dare let others see him, nor did he dare to look in the mirror.

As the Chinese New Year approached, Xie Yue was only wearing a thin inner garment. After being frozen for a long time, his lips became chapped and his hands and feet were cold.

If this continued, he would have a high fever in less than half an hour. But he didn't care at all. He just sat on the ground, dazed and confused, not knowing what he was thinking.

Finally, he closed his eyes quietly, leaned his head against the foot of the desk, and fell asleep.

I hope that everything in my dreams is beautiful.
