"Now, yes or no, Yu Mo doesn't care, nor does Aunt need to explain."

After a round of questioning, Xiao Yumo swiftly turned around and knelt in the middle of the hall, "Your Majesty, Yu Mo has come here today, not for the sake of the bystanders, but to clarify these rumors, please make the decision."

The woman's words were sincere, and even when she knelt in the great hall, her graceful demeanor did not diminish.

Xiao Yumo did not pursue the matter further. Undoubtedly, this caused a huge question mark to be filled in the hearts of everyone present, and caused Shen Yingluo to finally spit it out in one breath.

Today's incident might have been a misunderstanding, but if it had been a big deal, she wouldn't have been able to escape responsibility even if she had been disrespectful to the emperor.

"Get up." The Emperor lightly tapped the table with his fingertips and swept across the girl in front of him without leaving a trace. He frowned, "Xiao Yannian, do you know your crime?"

"This old official … "Know your fault."

Xiao Yannian's face was in pain, as though he had instantly aged ten years, and became incomparably dejected.

The Emperor harrumphed coldly. "I won't pursue the matter of the princess's magnanimity today. You will be punished for one year. If there is a next time, carefully watch your head! "

"This subject thanks the lord for his grace."

With these words, Xiao Yannian was drenched in sweat as if he was completely exhausted.

"Yu Mo." To Xiao Yumo, the emperor seemed to have changed again as a faint smile surfaced on his face. "You don't have to take today's matter to heart. "If you lack anything, I will make the decision for you."

"Yu Mo thanks Your Majesty."

"Alright, today I am tired too. You can all leave."

The Emperor waved his hands before standing up and leaving, leaving behind the people in this room.

When the emperor left, the air seemed to loosen up a bit. Xiao Yannian could not hold on any longer and fell to the ground, still unable to recover from his previous state of mind.

"Master."

Shen Yingluo cried out in alarm and immediately helped Xiao Yannian up, feeling as sullen as possible.

While Xiao Lingyi sat in the great hall in a hollow state, unable to accept this astonishing turn of events.

It was clear that half a quarter of an hour ago, she was about to become the legitimate Princess Ning. However, before she could even cheer in joy, reality slapped her once more.

"Xiao Yumo, it's all because of you!" Xiao Lingyi's chest rose intensely, her joints turning white.

"My good sister, remember this." Xiao Yumo turned her legs into a lotus flower and looked down at them from above, "Those that do not belong to you, will not belong to you in the end.

After throwing down those words, Xiao Yumo did not even look at the people's expressions, and directly walked out of the hall.

Outside the great hall, the sun shone brightly as it pierced through the clouds. Warmth assaulted the bodies of the spectators as a layer of golden light enveloped the girl.

Her back was straight and her dress fluttered with the wind. Her slender waist seemed to be unable to bear the wind as it became a beautiful scene in the palace.

"Miss, how can you just let it go like this?"

The moment she saw her young mistress come out, Hongmian immediately caught up to her and was extremely indignant.

Today, if not for Mo Lian returning in time, the young miss of her household would not have been able to stand here peacefully.

"Hongmian, many things are not as simple as you think." Xiao Yumo patted the little girl's shoulder meaningfully, "Right now, I am afraid Your Majesty is the most satisfied one. If I am to take things too far, I am afraid it will become another disaster. "

The Prime Minister's Palace was powerful, no matter which family he would marry, he would not let the Emperor be at ease. Only she was different.

Her name was Zhang Chang'an, and she was full of glory. However, the Emperor was most satisfied with just this bit of information.

It was all alone.

Everyone knew about her vile relationship with the Prime Minister's Palace. Even if she married into the Ning Wang Manor, it would definitely not bring her any benefits.

This sort of mutual restraint was the way of the Sovereigns.

Hong Mi nodded her head as if she understood something, and followed behind Xiao Yumo with a peace of mind.

Hearing this, Xiao Yumo's footsteps paused, and the corner of her mouth twitched. Not far away, a well-dressed man was casually walking over.

He stopped in front of Xiao Yumo, looked her up and down from head to toe, and appeared to be extremely picky, "She's a proper beauty, luckily she isn't dead yet."

He had the appearance of a popinjay.

"Lou Chenzhan!" Xiao Yumo clenched her teeth, and looked at the man in front of him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

The man who was called out was not annoyed. He smiled brightly, "Tsk, now it seems that not only is the princess beautiful, but she is also courageous."

Lou Chenzhan, the famous Fifth Prince.

Ever since she was a little girl, she had always been beautiful and loose, but she was still the number one silkpants in the Chang'an City, receiving all their attention.

Probably all the women in the world knew of this Fifth Prince's alluring appearance.

He was clearly a dragon, but he had the skin of a monster. Many women couldn't help but sigh at their inferiority.

"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness." In Xiao Yumo's previous life, she had more or less came into contact with this prince before, but she didn't know that Lou Chenzhan had a mouth that also deserved a beating.

"Princess, please don't be upset. I only came here to take care of you because I heard that you were poisoned. It was purely out of good intentions."

"..."

Xiao Yumo was speechless for a moment, and when she glanced at the slut in front of him, she instantly felt helpless.

This Fifth Prince probably didn't mind watching the show, as more or less, he had come to make things up.

She curled her lips, and said perfunctorily, "Then many thanks for your concern, Your Highness. Yu Mo will take her leave."

Lou Chenzhan thoughtfully looked at the figure that had just left, and a smile appeared on his lips.

's footsteps were extremely fast, and he walked for an entire quarter of an hour before he finally saw the palace door. Rubbing his glabella with a headache, he bumped into a pair of pitch black, deep eyes.

Lou Yihan was dressed in a gold edged black robe, it looked extremely mysterious, and on his handsome and threatening face, there was a charming smile, as he calmly looked at her.

Xiao Yumo raised her sleeves, and steadily stopped in front of Lou Yihan, "Your Highness is in a good mood?"

The man lowered his head and glanced at the woman who had just gotten to his chest, then teased, "This duke just didn't expect that Yu Mo, who was so anxious to marry into the Duke's Palace, would actually come to the palace herself."

As soon as the flowing news was reported, Liu Ming immediately came to the entrance of the palace with indescribable emotions surging in his chest.

Xiao Yumo raised her eyebrows, and straightforwardly nodded as she admitted, "So it's only now that Your Highness knows. Rumor has it that the Ning Wang Manor was extremely powerful and had an overbearing appearance, so why wouldn't Yu Mo be willing to take part in this marriage? "

The woman's face was full of smiles. Standing beside Lou Yihan, it was an indescribable match.

Everything went pale.

But in the next second, Lou Yihan's deep yet magnetic laughter came out, as though an immortal had descended to the mortal world, startling everyone.

When Xiao Yannian and the rest came out of the palace, what they saw was exactly this scene.

"Xiao Yumo!"
