The emperor's face instantly darkened. "Jun He, it was you who begged me to give Shen Ning to you with your military exploits. Shen Bozhong refused to marry her many times for the sake of his daughter. It was you who insisted on marrying her. She already had someone else in her heart. You would only be able to force yourself. You're hurting yourself."

Xiao Junhe glanced at the young eunuch and said in a deep voice, "How can we conclude?"

"Slave... I saw His Royal Highness Prince Xuan and Princess Jin... behaving ambiguously in the alley, and heard Prince Xuan say that it was thanks to the commotion that Princess Jin entered the palace that..." The little eunuch knelt on the ground nervously, trembling. .

"Father, I believe in Shen Ning. She is not a wicked person and would definitely not do such a thing." Xiao Junhe may suspect that Xiao Chengyin took advantage of Shen Ning, but he will never suspect that Shen Ning did it deliberately.

The intention of deliberately entering the palace was not to force his mother and concubine to death.

"Do you believe her that much?" the emperor asked in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Xiao Junhe answered firmly.

The emperor sighed and spoke after a long time. "If you want to make a big deal happen, you shouldn't take your children's personal relationships too seriously. Sometimes, when you love someone... you have too much control over it."

The emperor wanted to tell Xiao Junhe that if he became the emperor in the future, it would be very difficult for Shen Ning to survive in this intrigue and deceitful harem.

"Father, I only need one person, Shen Ning." Xiao Junhe seemed to say it to the emperor on purpose.

He is not him...

No matter what, he will only marry Shen Ning.

Even if he sits on the throne in the future, he will never be willing to let Shen Ning share her husband with the women in the palace.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head. "You are still young, and your ideas are too single. If the queen wants to help you rise to power, you must marry the Liu family's daughter."

The reason why the emperor made people stare at Shen Ning was also to make Xiao Junhe give up on Shen Ning and marry the daughter of the Liu family, Liu Wanying.

"Father, I will not marry you." Xiao Junhe's voice was firm.

"You!" The emperor's face turned pale with anger and he slapped the seat hard. "Okay, very good!"

Xiao Junhe lowered his eyes and held the wheelchair tightly. "With your body like this, how can a daughter of the Liu family want to get married? There is no need to worry too much, I will handle it on my own."

The emperor slowly closed his eyes and nodded. "I'm tired... the road ahead is difficult. Your mother and concubine are no longer here, so you have to go by yourself."

"Your Majesty..." Outside the main hall, Xiao Junhe's people came in and knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty, our princess... beat up King Xuanxuan and... even scratched his face. King Xuan took the opportunity to make things difficult for him... "

Xiao Junhe's face darkened and his air pressure condensed.

The emperor glanced at Xiao Junhe and sighed.

"Father, I know what you are thinking, but please trust me and Shen Ning. Next time... don't let people stare at her. I trust her." Xiao Junhe looked at her deeply before leaving. He glanced at the little eunuch.

The little eunuch was too frightened to raise his head.

Indeed... His Majesty ordered that no matter what you hear, you must say so.

Only in this way can King Jin no longer focus all his thoughts on Shen Ning.

As a future prince, this is a taboo.

As a person who has come before, the emperor is doing it for Xiao Junhe's good.

…

Xiao Junhe left, and the emperor sighed. "Everyone, please go down."

After everyone left, the emperor leaned weakly on the bed, looking at the dim room, his figure lonely.

Concubine Lian is gone...

The obsession in his heart also disappeared.

"Lian Xin, our son is better than me..."

With a bitter smile, the emperor slowly closed his eyes.

He won't be able to help much in the future.

He has run out of gas, how long can he last... He knows in his heart.

…

Outside the palace gate.

Shen Ning was waiting for Xiao Junhe in the carriage.

I thought Xiao Chengyin wouldn't dare to pester him too much in front of so many people, but he didn't expect that he still chased after her.

"Shen Ning, when we met at the Chenghuang Temple Fair, you were the one who publicly expressed your kindness to me at the poetry gathering. Now that the King of Jin is disabled, you are so entangled, but do you regret it?"

Xiao Chengyin said this deliberately to make everyone think that Shen Ning disliked Prince Jin's disability and came to pester him again.

"We have heard before that the daughter of Prime Minister Shen's family is very happy with His Highness Prince Xuan. She has not hesitated to break off the engagement many times and wants to marry Prince Xuan. Unexpectedly, she still refuses to give up now."

"Look at the wounds on King Xuan's face. Someone saw that it was scratched by Princess Jin."

"To hurt him like this when you don't get it, King Xuan is really good-tempered."

"Shen Ning had previously composed a poem at a poetry meeting to please King Bo Xuan. Every line of the words was filled with her love for King Xuan."

Shen Ning had indeed been showing favor to Xiao Chengyin before.

This is something everyone in the entire Imperial City knows.

"Your Highness Prince Xuan, you are so shameless that you are invincible. You are really thick-skinned to a certain extent." Shen Ning originally ignored Xiao Chengyin, but there were so many people gathered. If she didn't explain...he would take advantage of her.

Xiao Chengyin did this deliberately, not just to win over the support of the courtiers.

The emperor's body is not as strong as before, and now is the time to establish the throne.

"Shen Ning is young and ignorant. His Highness Xuan's sweet words and admiration? Did His Highness Xuan misunderstand something? The poem at the poetry meeting that year was clearly about the feelings of family and country, how could it be interpreted as the personal love between children? Everyone He is a person who only learns with knowledge, wouldn’t it be possible for you to misunderstand it?” Shen Ning looked at the civil servants who were discussing and asked with a smile.

When those people heard this, they were all panicked.

In the Qin Dynasty's imperial court, if you don't have some real talent and practical knowledge, it will really make you laughable.

Shen Ning is a well-known talented woman in the Imperial City. Since she says this... she can only agree with her.

"Yes, yes, Princess Jin's poems are majestic and majestic, and she expresses concern for her family, country and the world."

"Yes, yes, a petty poem about children's love affairs will naturally not be put on the stage."

Shen Ning sneered and looked at Xiao Chengyin with cold eyes.

Since you have already broken your skin, there is nothing to be afraid of. "His Royal Highness Xuan Wang has misinterpreted the meaning of even the simplest poems. I guess his talent and learning must be low. His martial arts is not one-tenth of my husband's. His literary skills are wishful thinking and make people laugh. I don't know where King Xuan is. You are so confident that you think Shen Ning is entangled with you?"

Xiao Chengyin's face turned extremely dark and he clenched his hands uncontrollably.

Shen Ning!

She actually slandered him in front of so many people.

"Shen Ning! You said that King Jin has lost both legs and is worried that you will become a cripple in the future. I pity you, but I didn't expect you to be so dishonest." Xiao Chengyin was a bit anxious.

Shen Ning's eyes were red and she pretended to cry. "My prince is trying to protect the territory of the Qin Dynasty, and even more so for the civil and military people of this dynasty. King Xuan He Gu slandered him so much. Even if his legs are disabled, my prince is still a hundred times stronger than the prince. I heard that the prince and The young master of the Liu family, Liu Chengyuan, hangs around the place of fireworks every day, and the girls in Zuihua House all despise the prince..."

Shen Ning looked like he was about to say something, but he stopped talking.

She really trampled Xiao Chengyin under her feet and crushed him.

Xiao Chengyin's scalp was numb with anger. The man's damn self-esteem made Xiao Chengyin unable to help but step forward and want to attack Shen Ning.

"His Royal Highness King Xuan."

Behind him, Xiao Junhe, who had arrived long ago, looked at Xiao Chengyin with cold eyes.

The stone in his hand popped out and hit Xiao Chengyin's raised wrist.

Xiao Chengyin turned around in pain and looked at Xiao Junhe, full of anger.

Xiao Junhe's air pressure was very low, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Xiao Chengyin gritted his teeth, unable to meet Xiao Junhe for the time being.

"His Royal Highness King Xuan, Your Majesty has summoned you." The eunuch spoke quickly.

"Humph!" Xiao Chengyin gritted his teeth and left.

Xiao Junhe sat in a wheelchair and raised his hand to Shen Ning in front of everyone.

Shen Ning looked at Xiao Junhe quietly, inexplicably... feeling like crying.

Walking over quickly, Shen Ning took the initiative to hold Xiao Junhe's hand. "Let's... go home."

Xiao Junhe nodded. "Go home."
