Regardless of whether it was an act or not, he never intended to let Sheng Mingyu suffer any injustice.

"Don't argue here. It's just a flower. When you leave later, go to the storehouse and get a few. You can take them home for the Crown Princess. They can also be used as life-saving medicine."

The emperor said it without any concern.

The face of the prince of Han country turned pale. No one in their country dared to privately keep a single Tianshan Snow Lotus, but now it came to them, it was something they didn't want!

"Yes! Your Highness is so favored by His Majesty that His Majesty would give him the throne, not to mention a Tianshan Snow Lotus. Why are you throwing such useless tantrums? Don't bother with me. I'm the one who doesn't know how to talk."

He was so angry that he lost his mind and began to regret what he said as soon as he said it.

The Second Prince and Du Changming looked at him in shock, their eyes full of admiration.

"No wonder Han Country sent the Third Prince here. It turns out you're the most courageous one, daring to say anything. I just wonder if the Emperor of Han Country would be so angry that he would destroy you if he knew what you did today?"

The eighth prince stopped watching the show and started making sarcastic remarks.

He doesn't want to get involved in trivial matters, but if Sheng Mingyu is really bullied, he will not sit idly by.

"I……"

The prince of Han opened his mouth to explain, but didn't know where to start.

What he just said seemed to be what he meant. Explaining it at this time would only discredit himself further.

"Alright! Stop arguing over these trivial matters. We are all guests from afar. Since the prince of Han Country wants to seek asylum in our country, he should learn how to speak properly in the future. We have arranged an embassy outside. If you have nothing to do, go back and rest."

Seeing that this farce was endless, a trace of fatigue appeared on Gu Yunni's face, and Sheng Mingyu quickly spoke out to stop it.

He glanced at the Eighth Prince and didn't let him care.

"You've been so tired from the journey, and I'm afraid your mind isn't clear, which is why you said such harsh words. Don't worry, I won't take it to heart, and neither will Your Majesty. I just hope you can be more intelligent in the future and not be used as a pawn."

He never thought that Sheng Mingyu would speak for him. Although he was a little confused, he did feel grateful in his heart.

If it weren’t for Sheng Mingyu, I’m afraid today’s farce would not be able to end.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for speaking up for me. I'm really tired from the journey, and my mind isn't clear. Your Majesty, please don't be angry. I'll come visit you again tomorrow after I've rested."

If Sheng Mingyu speaks up to help out, no one will refuse to give him face.

Although the emperor's face was still ugly, he did not stop it in the end.

When the prince of Han Kingdom went out, his clothes were soaked, and the envoys around him were also frightened.

"Your Highness, please remember not to say such harsh words next time. It seems that the emperor wants to protect Sheng Mingyu. If you say it again next time, I'm afraid your head will be dislocated."

He agreed hurriedly, didn't want to say more, and left the scene quickly, as if there were wolfhounds chasing him.

If he didn't have a mission to carry out, he would have wanted to return to Han Country right now and not deal with these people.

After the prince of Han Kingdom left, only those few people were left in the hall, and the atmosphere froze in an instant.

The second prince had cold sweat on his forehead and he knelt in the hall, not daring to move.

"Second brother, have you forgotten what I told you when I let you out? You must control your temper and don't cause trouble for me. Did you turn a deaf ear to my words?"

The emperor released all his pressure, his voice was calm, and on the surface there was nothing wrong.

But those who know him well know that he is extremely angry now.

"Father, it's my fault. I didn't think before I spoke. Please don't be angry. I will never say such words again, and I will never cross Sheng Mingyu again."

He hurriedly explained that as long as he could escape the blame, he didn't care about his posture.

"Don't say those high-sounding words in front of me. I'm not a fool. I know what you're thinking. If the ministers see you like this, they'll only alienate you further!"

The emperor didn't give him face and slammed the table in a bad mood.

The second prince's face turned pale and blue, not knowing how to explain. He knew that no matter what he said, today was irreversible.

"Yes, Second Prince, I've been good to you, haven't I? How could you have the heart to attack me? Don't forget, I did many of your things myself before!"

Sheng Mingyu raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth and then questioned.

"You!" The second prince's face turned pale and he pointed at him, unable to speak.

Countless unpleasant words were stuck in his throat, but looking at the emperor's expression, he didn't dare to say more.

"What? If the Second Prince has any opinions about me, you can just say it directly. The misunderstanding between the two of us still needs to be resolved." Sheng Mingyu struck while the iron was hot and looked over in confusion.

Du Changming stood aside and watched the fun. He didn't say a word about what happened today, so the fire didn't get to him.

"Your Highness has misunderstood. How could I have a misunderstanding with you? Perhaps too many things happened in the past, and my mind is not clear anymore. If Your Highness is willing, we can still be friends. I'm just afraid that Your Highness would dislike it."

The second prince endured it again and again, and a stiff smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He had finally gotten out of the mansion and couldn't be locked up again. He was willing to do so even if it meant humiliation and admitting his mistakes.

"Second Prince, you are too polite. Even if you give me a thousand courage, I would not dare to trouble you. I am just asking casually. If you think I am talking too much, you can ignore me."

Sheng Mingyu smiled and said no more.

The emperor looked at the tense situation between the two and glared at the second prince hatefully. This son was really disappointing.

"Alright, I don't want to bother with what happened today. I advise you to stop meddling in other people's business. You still have to control your mouth. If you feel you can't control it, you can go travel around Jiangnan to avoid annoying me in front of you."

After the emperor spoke, several people did not dare to disobey and hurriedly nodded to admit their mistakes.

Seeing that this hurdle was over, the second prince finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, Han Nation's tribute is just the beginning. In the future, more and more countries will come. How should we handle today's situation? Should we get closer to Han Nation or what? We must show our attitude."

Sheng Mingyu no longer cared about what had just happened. When talking about serious matters, several people also put on a serious attitude.

"Originally, I wanted to get close to Han Country, but the prince of Han Country has poor eyesight. I don't know if it's because he's not smart enough. If all their people are like this, it's better to give up early to avoid endless trouble in the future."

When this matter was mentioned, the emperor's eyes were filled with unconcealable disgust.

Fortunately, they met in advance, otherwise he would have no place to express his regrets.

"Your Majesty, you're overthinking it! It's just that this prince isn't very smart, not all of them are. Moreover, isn't it because of the Second Prince that he made the wrong statement? If Your Majesty makes a fuss about such a trivial matter, it's not worth it."
