""Where is she""I...I don't even know where my mother went. She left home."Yunliu shook her head slightly, thinking that even if this young master was going to lie, he should at least try to appear co...The Empress covered her face in disbelief, her eyes wide with astonishment, as she stared at the Emperor's deeply somber countenance.

She couldn't understand why the emperor would hit her. He had never treated her this way during her time as empress.

As queen, the emperor always gave her face. But today, in front of so many people, he slapped her.

"Your Majesty, what have I done wrong to cause you such anger…"

"Shut up!"

The emperor roared, he didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly slapped the empress across the face.

He didn't show any mercy, slapping the empress so hard that both sides of her face were swollen.

The Empress covered her face, her eyes were moist, and two tears rolled down her cheeks. She looked utterly pitiful, but sadly, the Emperor couldn't see her act of feigning sorrow.

The Emperor gritted his teeth, his cold eyes swept over Mo Rongyan beside him. If not for the fact that she was injured, he would have gone over and slapped her hard.

At this moment, the emperor's eyes, as cold as a winter abyss, stared at Mo Rongyan, his teeth gritted as he spoke, "Say, why did you go to trouble that woman"

The Empress and Mo Rongyan were taken aback. Mo Rongyan immediately burst into tears, saying:

"Father, you must make things right for your daughter! That lowly country girl, she... she actually poisoned me! Your daughter thought she'd never see you again. Father, please avenge your daughter!"

The Emperor ignored her complaint, his icy eyes fixed on her:

"I ask you again, why did you go to trouble that woman tonight Was it because of Xizi Bo Tell me the truth, if you hide anything from me, I will not be merciful!"

Hearing the emperor's serious words, Mo Rongyan's heart tightened slightly. She pursed her lips and fell silent for a moment. Her father's cold eyes were still fixed on her, and she had to grit her teeth and speak:

"Father, daughter...daughter just wanted to meet her, who knew she was so bold, and wouldn't let daughter say anything, she directly poisoned daughter."

The emperor narrowed his eyes. "I'll ask you one last time, do you truly only want to meet her Are there no other motives"

The emperor's appearance made Mo Rongyan nervous, gripping the quilt tightly with both hands, too afraid to meet the emperor's gaze.

She went out of the city tonight to the temple to confront that woman. It was truly for Xizibo.

Xizi Bo Shun's favorite sister was beaten by that despicable woman, so he wants to go and get revenge for his sister.

And she always put Xizibo first, agreeing to anything he wanted to do.

So she thought, as the princess of Tianba Kingdom and Mo Yunjing's elder sister, as long as she made an appearance, it would be easy to discipline that lowly country girl.

It was with this mindset that she would spend the night taking her servants, Xizi Bo, and her precious daughter to Jinchuan Temple.

She wants to stand up for Xizibao, so that he will be more grateful and love her!

Who could have known, that An Xuetang was completely different from what she had imagined This woman was simply fearless, daring to poison her directly.

It nearly disfigured her, she almost died!

Such a feeling still frightens her to this day!

At this moment, the emperor saw that Mo Rongyan refused to admit it, and his face turned green with anger. He finally couldn't help himself, walked straight to the bed, and slapped Mo Rongyan hard.

This scared everyone.

Having slapped him, the Emperor’s anger hadn’t abated. He let out a cold snort and gritted his teeth, saying:

"Do you know how much trouble your foolish actions tonight have caused me"y go inside, she could only anxiously wait at the door, her heart constantly praying that the princess would come out quickly.......Zhao Yu'er had never thought about any notions of propriety between...
