"You don't look too good." Shui Long looked at the silent man and asked worriedly.

"You don't have to worry about that. You should worry about yourself. You will die soon. "

"Oh?"

"As long as I leave you, you will die. This is the Lovesick Gu, aren't you afraid?" The man looked at the water and asked.

"Then, as long as you remain by my side, I won't die, right? I won't give up until the last step. I spent countless lives to survive. Thus, I will absolutely not give up on any chance to live.

In particular … Night Emperor Shang once said that he treasured me, so I too must cherish myself. " When it came to the topic of Night Emperor Shang, Shui Ruo couldn't help but laugh.

The man stared blankly at Shui Long, his mind filled with only the words Shui Long had just said about wanting to stay by his side.

Heh! Was she going to stay with him in order to survive? I'm afraid she'll regret it when the time comes.

Being by his side was not a good thing. Perhaps what he was facing was hell.

"My Lord, a letter from the State of Jiang." Outside, the woman's voice sounded. Hearing what was said, Jiang Wuyue turned around and left.

Only Shui Ruo was left sitting in his room.

At the same time, on Night Emperor Shang's side, after he left, he directly returned to the Royal Mansion.

Not long after, the Night Emperor hurried over.

"Why are you here?" In the main hall, Night Emperor Shang looked at the Night Emperor with dissatisfaction, venting all his anger onto him.

"You should know why I'm here, right? You've always been well-informed. You should be the first to know about her disappearance, right?

Furthermore, even though someone is covering up for you, it's still very easy to find out that you left with her last night. " The Night Emperor Xiu looked at Night Emperor Shang and said.

"Oh? If you know, why did you come here to ask me? "

"Where is she?" The Night Emperor asked.

"Ha!" What else can you do but ask her where she's been? You clearly don't know anything, you clearly can't do anything, yet you still want to occupy her heart?

Without you, she would have already been with me! " Night Emperor's anger had completely risen. He questioned the Night Emperor's cultivation one after another.

Hearing this, the Night Emperor laughed coldly, "Perhaps that is the case. However, the ifs never exist in this world. If there were ever such a thing in the world, I would rather I had never met her. It wouldn't cause so much trouble for her. She was still the young lady that could not be married off and might change in the future. But life was definitely going to be a lot freer than it was now.

It's not like we're fighting over it right now. Our love, never happiness, but shackles. It's been a long time since I've seen her really smile. He still remembered the first time he saw her. She was so calm, so straightforward. She wanted me to help her. I like her like that.

If I knew that so many things would happen in the future, I would definitely not have chosen to agree to it. " The Night Emperor's voice was filled with gloom. Then the two men fell silent.

"I don't know where she went." Night Emperor Shang's voice was deep and low.

"Don't know?" How is that possible? "

"I really don't know. But if she was really taken away, then she wouldn't have left the capital so quickly, right? I don't want to care about this. I want to be alone. I'll leave her to you. " Emperor Shang looked at the Night Emperor Xiu and said.

"Why?" The Night Emperor was somewhat puzzled.

"I don't want her to suffer. She is a very emotional person. If I help her a lot, she might hesitate when she chooses between us. She might fall in love with me, I don't know.

I don't want to see that day happen. I want her to love you and be with you. It's the only thing I can do. " The Emperor sighed, "Don't look at me like that. If possible, between you and me, she chose me. But that was only if. in

In the end, the person she chose was you, so it's better to treat it as a request. I hope you can find her and bring her back. "

"I know." After saying this, the Night Emperor left. He did not ask any further questions.

Night Emperor Shang definitely knew where she was. However, since Night Emperor Shang didn't say anything, there was no need for him to continue asking, right? Asking too many questions would only make things more complicated.

Even if Night Emperor did not care about this matter, he still had a way to know the truth, so he did not need to worry about anything at all.

However, what Night Emperor didn't know was that after he left, Night Emperor Shang had already begun to investigate the Lovesick Gu.

The so-called letting go, the so-called not caring about it, was just a lie.

The disappearance of the water caused huge ripples in the palace. The officials could clearly feel the emperor's anger, not to mention the palace itself. And his listless attitude.

This was not a good thing. The Emperor is the ruler of a nation. If the Emperor is not in the mood to handle matters of the country, then what about the country?

"Your majesty, how about we choose White Jade Street for this year's Red Moon Festival?" The Prime Minister looked at the listless Night Emperor Yan and asked.

"White Jade Street? I'll leave this matter to you. "

Night Emperor Yan frowned.

"Eh, but …"

"No buts, since you're the one who proposed it, then you'll be the one to settle it. "Retreat!"

The attitude of Night Emperor Yan was filled with determination. It was already noon when the so-called morning assembly began. He only had to answer one question before leaving the court. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was the emperor's absent-mindedness.

But, who dared to say anything?

At present, the princes' attitudes were all baffled. In addition, with the Regent of the Southwest, the Emperor's throne was secure.

"Regent, please wait." After leaving the imperial court, he called to the Prime Minister to stop the Prince of the Southwest.

Then, the Prince of the Southwest turned his head and asked puzzledly, "What is it, Prime Minister? If there is nothing important, please speak of it in the assembly tomorrow. This King has to go back and hug a beauty. Tut! The title of regent is really inconvenient. If not for this title, why would This King need to be so restrained? "

The southwest prince's attitude made the Prime Minister's mouth twitch. However, he didn't forget what he had to do.

Thus, he said to the Prince of the Southwest, "It's like this. His Majesty said that he would hand over the matter of the Red Moon Festival to this subject to take full responsibility. "But I feel that this must be some nonsense from the Emperor, who is in a poor state of mind."

"His Majesty's words are the imperial edict. The imperial edict will not be randomly given. Prime Minister, just take it. " The King of the Southwest had an expression that said "You think too much". He hated the Prime Minister to the point that he wanted to bite him.

What a joke! The Red Moon Festival was a big holiday, and he had the authority to be responsible for it?

As long as the emperor wasn't crazy, he definitely wouldn't do such a thing. Right now, the emperor wasn't very clear about this, but when he wakes up, he'll definitely think that there was something wrong with him.

It was already a difficult task for the emperor to remain in the position of prime minister. If he were to lose the position of prime minister because of this matter, then it would not be worth it.

"Your Majesty, please send someone to do this with this subject. This matter is of great importance, and if there is any problem, this subject alone cannot handle it."

As the Prime Minister spoke, he respectfully bowed.

Hearing this, the King of the Southwest frowned. "Actually, Prime Minister Xiang, you don't have to be so reserved. The emperor had recently left the country without a care in the world. To be honest, his most beloved concubine had somehow run away. It was the right thing for you to do at a time like this to help the emperor share his worries. As for the Red Moon Festival, since the emperor didn't pay much attention to it, and he said it publicly at this moment. Well, then, you will stay on this good errand, and the Emperor will not say anything in the future.

Even if you did, you can treat it as my permission. I'll help you. "

The words of the King of the Southwest caused the Prime Minister to be shocked. He had not expected him to speak up for him like this.

"In that case, this old official shall take his leave." As he spoke, the Prime Minister left.

Only after he walked towards the Prime Minister did the smile on the King of the Southwest disappear, and he walked towards the harem.

Logically speaking, the ministers in the palace were not allowed to enter the harem, but because of the relationship with the empress dowager, he could ignore all rules and act tyrannically in the harem.

However, even if he were to enter the harem, he would only have one place to go, and that was the Phoenix Altar Palace. Even though there were many more beautiful women in the palace than the empress dowager. But in his eyes, he could only tolerate the empress dowager by herself.

Although, they were no longer the same as before. However, this stubbornness did not change in the slightest.

By the time the King of the Southwest arrived at the Phoenix-Palace, the Empress was waiting for him alone in her room.

The King of Southwest made his way to the empress dowager's palace familiarly. He saw that she had already brewed the tea and was waiting for him.

Seeing that the King of the Southwest had come. The empress dowager smiled. "Take a seat."

Hearing this, the King of the Southwest obediently sat down like a child. Waiting for her orders.

"Don't be so formal, I don't even know what to do with you." The empress dowager looked at the King of the Southwest and said.

"What do you want to know?" The King of the Southwest looked at the empress dowager and asked indifferently.

It could be said that he had cut straight to the point. This was because this woman had never come looking for him purely to flirt with him.

It was just as he had expected. The empress's face darkened when she heard his question. She looked at him and said, "I believe you have heard of my words too, right? Consort De had disappeared. Although I do not know why she disappeared, I hope that after she disappears, she will disappear forever. "

"What do you mean?" The King of the Southwest frowned.

"You know what I mean. Shouldn't you know better than I do what it means to disappear forever? " The Queen looked at the King of the Southwest and asked coldly.

Hearing this, the King of the Southwest fell silent. Of course he knew what it meant to disappear forever. He just didn't expect her to be so ruthless.

"I cannot allow anyone to threaten my position. The presence of that woman would cause Yan'er to lose herself. At that time, how will I be able to handle the other dukes when they ascend to the throne? "

"No, they don't want to be promoted."

"Yes, it was impossible, but... It was possible for that woman. For the sake of that woman called Shui You, both the Night Emperor's cultivation and the Night Emperor's death had changed. I'm sure you can see that, can't you? You and I are both experienced people, and we both know what's good for us. Therefore, I must kill off all possibilities. Only in this way can I stabilize my position. "

Her Majesty's tone was serious.
