She didn't know what the emperor wanted to say to Feng Yunqi, whether he was talking about the canonization of the crown prince, or whether he was going to continue to hold on to the rumors.

She didn't know why, but she had an inexplicable hunch that the emperor would not easily let go of his marriage to Si Ling...

Seeing that Sheng Susu didn't answer, Si Ling looked a little solemn, thinking that she was blaming herself, so he quickly continued to apologize, "I'm really sorry. I've thought a lot in the past two days. I really wish I hadn't reunited with my family that day.

Then nothing like this would happen..."

Sheng Susu was already upset, but someone kept chattering in her ears. She said a little irritably, "There's no need to repeat it. It's useless to apologize now that it's over."

As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and Sheng Susu suddenly realized that her unintentional words might hurt Si Ling.

After all, Si Ling is also a victim. Whether he is sold as goods by his relatives or criticized by others, it is not of his own free will.

She should not target Si Ling under any circumstances.

At this time, a palace maid brought drinks. Sheng Susu happened to be a little embarrassed, so she picked up a glass and drank it.

Then she cleared her throat and explained to Si Ling sheepishly, "I'm sorry, Si Ling, don't mind. I'm just upset. I don't actually mean to blame you. Don't take it to heart."

After saying that, Sheng Susu subconsciously smacked her lips.

I don't know if it's because of my mood, but the wine tastes different from usual when I drink it.

At the same time, in the imperial study, the emperor was putting pressure on Feng Yunqi just as Sheng Susu expected.

"Forgive me, King, but I order you to marry Si Ling." The emperor said seriously.

Feng Yunqi's eyes dimmed suddenly, and she subconsciously wanted to refute, but the emperor issued a warning and threat first.

"I have made it very clear just now. This matter is related to the face of the royal family, and you are not allowed to mess around. If you allow the people to criticize the royal family, then I will have to take action to solve the problem. If you don't do it, then I will think that you

Not only is he incompetent, but he also has no sense of responsibility.”

"In that case, how do you expect me to hand over the crown prince's position to you with confidence?!"

As soon as these words came out, Feng Yunqi's fists immediately clenched.

This was the first time that the prince was mentioned so clearly between the emperor and him.

This position was something he wanted to get no matter what.

But now, the emperor wants him to exchange his feelings with Sheng Susu!

It’s really unbearable!

Feng Yunqi gritted his teeth and said, "Does it mean that to become a prince, you have to sacrifice the woman you love?!"

The emperor frowned immediately after hearing this, and a dark color flashed quickly in his eagle eyes. Even after talking about this, Feng Yunqi still refused to compromise?

In order to prosper Susu, he could even give up his country?

Of course the emperor didn't know that from beginning to end, what Feng Yunqi wanted was never the country, but his life...

The emperor was depressed, but he didn't get angry again. Instead, he suddenly sighed and said seriously, "My dear king, you have to understand that it doesn't matter who you marry. I'm just telling you that if you want to have the supreme power, you must

For this reason, I endured sacrifices and endured pressures and hardships that others could not bear.”

"Compared to other things, marrying a woman you don't love is simply the most trivial thing."

When he said this, the emperor's old face showed a bit of emotion, and the light in his eyes dimmed a lot.

Feng Yunqi heard the meaning of the emperor's words, and his eyes suddenly became a little colder.

The emperor was testing him with this matter, asking him to marry Si Ling first to show his determination and sincerity, and then give him the crown prince position.

But he and the emperor are not the same person, and he will not exchange power with an absurd marriage.

Truly convincing power is not something that comes in exchange.

Feng Yunqi snorted disdainfully, and then suddenly thought of something, his face became gloomy, and hatred surged in his dark eyes.

He gritted his teeth and asked, "Then I dare to ask, if the woman who kills you with your own hands is your sacrifice?"

However, the emperor seemed to be still immersed in his own memories and did not hear clearly, "What did you say?"

Feng Yunqi did not answer. He stared at the emperor's old face, and the hatred buried deep in his heart gradually broke out and entered every nerve in him.

The emperor would do anything for power, even killing his mother and concubines, but he was different.

If he really married Si Ling, then Sheng Susu would definitely leave him, and then he would have no face at all to go to Sheng Susu and beg her to change her mind.

After all, he personally promised not to marry anyone but her. If he broke this promise, how could he have the face to see her?

But, on the other hand, he must seize the throne and avenge his mother and concubine!

The more he thought about it, the more painful and struggling Feng Yunqi felt in his heart. He didn't want to lose Sheng Susu, but his mother and concubine's revenge must be avenged no matter what.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, and then it became stronger and stronger. He looked at the emperor with murderous intent in his eyes.

What kind of prince do you want to be and what kind of throne do you want to seize?!

Why not kill the emperor right now!
