"Guards, arrest this adulterous couple and imprison Princess Jiarou in the imperial prison!"

"No!" Princess Jiarou stood up angrily, her eyes flashing with a sinister glint. "Father, I have called you that for over twenty years. Don't you have any feelings at all?"

"Mother, you only made a small mistake. You can have three wives and four concubines, so why can't you?"

"Besides, Your Majesty has given you all the dignity you deserve, and I have begged you for mercy. Why do you still want to kill us?"

"Since you disregard us, then your son need not worry about any father-daughter relationship."

As she spoke, she muttered something to herself.

Suddenly, a sparrow flew in through the door and landed on Princess Jiarou's shoulder, followed by a large flock of sparrows.

Princess Jiarou curled her lips into a cold smile, staring at the people in the room, her gaze finally settling on Xiao Wanwan.

"Go to hell!"

She made a hand gesture while performing a mantra.

A moment later, a flock of sparrows behind her swarmed towards them like a whirlwind.

Yao Qianshu's eyes widened. He was originally standing behind Ye Lanyin, but unexpectedly he took Xiao Wanwan off her arms and hid behind her.

"Ahhh, I'm going to die! I don't want to die! Daddy, Mommy, help me!"

Ye Lanyin fearfully shielded Xiao Wanwan and Yao Qianshu behind her, while Hua Xin and Hua Mei, even more terrified, surrounded Ye Lanyin and the others.

"Madam, what should we do?" Huaxin's voice trembled.

Emperor Xuan Yue never expected that the daughter he had nurtured with all his heart would eventually turn against him.

He looked at the dark mass of sparrows and kept backing away.

"Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor! Someone come quick!"

The personal eunuch shouted, and many guards rushed in from outside the door, but they were all terrified when they saw a large flock of sparrows inside.

"Quickly, rush in and protect His Majesty!"

Princess Jiarou said to the Empress, "Mother, please come here quickly."

The empress was bound and unable to move at all.

Yuwen Mi was even more terrified; he didn't want to die, he absolutely didn't want to die.

Given his current status and position, he could have lived a very prosperous life in Xuan Yue Kingdom.

He had hoped to use his relationship with the Empress to advance his career, but now he has ended up in such a state.

He disregarded the Empress, struggled to his feet, and rushed to Princess Jiarou's side.

"Rou'er, please save me."

The Empress watched as Yuwen Mi abandoned her and ran to Princess Jiarou's side alone, her face streaked with tears and filled with surprise.

"Yuwen Mi, how could you abandon me?"

"Empress, I'm sorry. Everyone looks out for themselves. Our fate has already run its course. The Yuwen family cannot do without me, and Jia Rou also needs a father. After you die, I will give you a proper burial."

The Empress shook her head in disbelief. How could the man she had loved for over twenty years be so heartless?

She felt a sharp pain in her heart, unable to accept that the person she loved could be so heartless.

Tears welled up uncontrollably again.

"Hahaha, I never thought that after scheming for you for half my life, I would end up scheming against myself. How ridiculous."

"If I had known you were such a cold-hearted person, I would never have shown you any mercy..."

"Pfft pfft..."

As the sparrow flew closer and closer, the Queen closed her eyes in despair.

Since she was going to die anyway, she might as well die in the Phoenix Feather Palace, which would be her last act of dignity.

She glanced at the short, obese emperor opposite her, and her mind drifted back to the past.

She had no idea that the person who treated her best was actually His Majesty.

How absurd!

"Quickly, kill all these sparrows."

"hurry up."

The guards, armed with swords, tried to fight the sparrows.

But the sparrows seemed to be under control, their eyes glowing red, and they would bite people's necks whenever they saw them. The guards were no match for them at all.

Before long, many of the guards who had just entered collapsed one by one.

Princess Jiarou looked at the results of the battle before her and sneered, "Father, if you accept the fact that I am still your daughter, I will let you go."

"Otherwise, you can expect to die here just like these scumbags!"

"At that time, your homeland, your people, will all be destroyed!"

Emperor Xuan Yue looked at his daughter, who had become so cruel and cold-hearted, his eyes filled with rage. "Don't even think about it! Even if I die, I will take you down with me!"

"Guards! Guards! Seize this rebellious daughter for me! I will reward you handsomely!!"

The eunuchs and palace maids shrank back in fear, but they had no choice but to obey His Majesty's words.

Eunuch Li said, "Your Majesty, please leave quickly, this servant will block your way."

No sooner had Eunuch Li finished speaking than a woman in yellow, who had been following Ye Lanyin, suddenly lunged at Emperor Xuan Yue.

She cried out, “Father, please go! The country cannot be without you, and there are still millions of people in Xuan Yue Kingdom. You cannot fall like this!”

Looking at this unfamiliar daughter, Emperor Xuan Yue couldn't help but ask, "Who are you? Why do you call me Father?"

The woman immediately peeled off her mask, revealing her true face.

With red eyes, she choked out, "Father, I am Minghui. I did not die. I have returned."

"Minghui?"

Is it that other daughter who was not valued by him and never appeared in front of him?

“You are not…you…” He pointed at Ye Lanyin and then at Princess Minghui.

Princess Minghui said, "Father, this is not the time to talk about this. Please leave here quickly."

Her gaze swept around, finally settling on the bed.
