At this moment, the Heavy Flower Hall was completely silent. Prince Jin sat at the table with a candle flame placed on it.

The emperor didn't allow them to pass the notice. He even left Xu Li outside as he slowly walked into the great hall by himself.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Prince Jin quickly turned his head,

"Royal father, this son's movements are inconvenient, so I am unable to bow to you. Please forgive me.

"

The emperor sized up Prince Jin. Under the illumination of the candle flame, his face turned gentler. Under his gentle smile, he seemed completely humble. He had always loved and doted upon his son from the bottom of his heart. He had been obedient and sensible since he was young. When he was young, his two royal brothers and his reading companions were playing around together. Only he stood timidly by the side, causing him to unconsciously feel a bit more pain. And when he grew up, he was serious about his work,

His errands were brilliant, but he didn't expect that his personality would become more and more eccentric, and he wouldn't be able to return to the right path …

"Jun Jin, it's been a long time since father and son had a meal together. How about we have a drink together tonight?

"

Prince Jin smiled,

"Imperial Father, I can't see anymore. I can't pour wine for you.

"

"No problem, I'll help you pour the wine.

"

Xu Li brought the wine cups over and then slowly withdrew.

The emperor poured a cup full of wine and held Prince Jin's hand before filling it up for himself.

Prince Jin did not know what to do.

"Imperial Father, it is already late. Why do you suddenly want to drink? Is there something troubling you?

" When I was your age, I had already ascended the throne and inherited the throne. At that time, the six great clans were so powerful that even my royal father had no choice but to fear them, and so my royal father chose to stay hidden. Every time I see you, I feel that you and I were young

Wait until I'm exactly the same.

"

Prince Jin's fingers tightened around the wine cup as he thought to himself,

"Under the control of Imperial Father, the days of war are on the rise. Your son's stupidity is incomparable to mine.

"

The emperor drank the wine in his hands and looked at the gentle and humble face of the Jin Emperor with eyes that flashed with sorrow,

"Royal father may be a good emperor, but he is not a good father.

"Jun Jin, I need you to tell me the truth. Do you regret it now?

" He could not see what kind of expression the emperor had in front of him, and could only barely make out a hint of regret in his voice:

"royal father, this son regrets that I should not have angered royal father, much less killed myself in front of him, causing royal father to be so sad …

"...

"

Hearing his words, the last sliver of hope in the Emperor's eyes slowly faded.

"Enough, father and son don't need to say all this. Drink two cups with me.

"

The father and son duo drank a whole pot of wine until they were both a little drunk.

Xu Li hurriedly entered the room to support the emperor.

"Your majesty, it's getting late. It's time to go back and rest. Tomorrow morning we still have to go to court.

"

The emperor stood up shakily. His body was heavy and he staggered as he walked.

"I am leaving. Jun Jin should be resting soon.

"

"This son respectfully sends royal father off.

"

After exiting the great hall, the Emperor released Xu Li's hand and slowly walked towards the sleeping quarters. After returning home, he did not immediately rest. Instead, he sat in silence for a long time before instructing Xu Li to prepare some brush and ink.

Sensing the emperor's cold aura, Xu Li couldn't help but say,

"Your majesty, it's getting late. Why don't we talk about it tomorrow? You're tired, so you should take a good rest.

"

"There are some things that we can't decide on right now, so in the future, it will be more difficult for us to make our decision. Hurry up and prepare for it.

"

"Yes.

"

Xu Li took the brush and ink and carefully examined it before backing off to the side.

The emperor was sitting behind a desk, holding a brush. The tip of his brush slightly trembled and a ball of ink quickly opened up.

Xu Li quickly went to help the emperor change the paper. Only after changing the paper twice did the emperor begin to write.

Xu Li couldn't help but look at him, his eyes flashing with shock. He hurriedly withdrew his gaze, pretending that he knew nothing.

The next morning, Mu Yunyao had just returned from the Poison Matriarch's place and was about to head to the Heavy Flower Palace when she saw a beautiful girl hurrying over.

"Miss, you don't have to go to the Palace anymore.

"

"Hmm?

" Mu Yunyao raised her gaze.

"What happened?

"

"The Emperor issued an imperial decree this morning, stripping the Third Prince of his title and ordering him to leave the palace and be confined within his estate. Without His Majesty's decree, the Third Prince is not allowed to leave the palace as he pleases, and no one is allowed to visit him.

"

Mu Yunyao slightly lowered her gaze. It seemed that the Emperor had truly felt disappointed after seeing the truth of Prince Jin's poisoning. That was why he had steeled his heart and restricted him,

"I understand.

"

"In addition, the Emperor has bestowed rewards to His Highness King Yu and His Highness King Yue. He has also decreed that His Highness King Yue should temporarily enter the official department.

"At the same time, the orders for you and the Poison Matriarch should be coming soon.

"

"Mm, send someone to prepare the incense. I'll go take a look at the Poison Lady first.

"

The Poison Lady had tightly wrapped him within her embrace. If he were to accept the decree with that appearance, he would probably be frightened out of his wits.

After all that had happened, the orders were quickly passed down.

Mu Yunyao thanked him three times before accepting the imperial edict and handing it over to the Poison Matriarch.

"From now on, you don't have to worry about your past.

"

The woman blinked. She thought she wouldn't mind at first, but now that she had regained her virginity, she felt more at ease than she ever had before.

This decree was like a long blade that completely severed her and her unbearable past. When she looked back, she was finally able to experience a trace of comfort and relief. On the Heavy Flower Palace's side, Prince Jin had been feeling uneasy ever since he left last night. When he received the imperial edict, the unease in his heart finally turned into reality. He could not believe his ears.

He raised his head and fainted.

When she heard that Prince Jin had fainted and rushed over to the Heavy Flower Palace, she was also stopped by someone else.

"What right do you have to block me? Are there any rules?

"

The guards' expressions didn't change.

"Reporting to esteemed imperial concubine, the emperor has specifically ordered that no one is to visit His Highness the third prince.

" The imperial edict had already been passed down. Ning Junjin had been stripped of his title as Prince Jin. Now, he could only be addressed as the Third Prince.

Zhen Fei's face was pale and on the verge of collapse.

"How could the emperor be so heartless …

"Now that Jun Jin has become like this, why would I be willing to kill him to the last man in front of me?

"

The guards quickly kneeled on the ground and lowered their eyes, not daring to listen to her complaints.

The maids were afraid that she would say something even more disrespectful, so they hurriedly helped her out.

"Esteemed imperial concubine, since the emperor has given the order, the guards definitely won't let you in. It's better to think of another way.

" Once she was reminded, she pushed aside the maids and quickly ran towards the Jade Glow Palace.
