Lin Yan asked, puzzled, "Why didn't the Grand Eunuch just kill him?"
Xiao Heye yawned, slowly stood up, and a mysterious smile played in his dark eyes:
"Because... for him, the most painful torment is being willing but unable. We want to see how he'll manipulate others in the future."
"Imagine this? Three thousand beauties in the harem, yet the emperor can only watch longingly, unable to lift his head any longer..."
"Hmph... This is probably the funniest joke in the world." Xiao Heye smiled, his voice gentle but also quite frightening.
Men understand men best, and this is much more satisfying than simply killing that damned emperor.
Xiao Heye has always held grudges.
The incident at Tingyu Tower is not something that can be easily forgotten with just words.

After saying that, the black figure disappeared into the misty night rain.
There was never a Lin Yan in this world.
Lin Yan was just a name from beginning to end.
She had only been in the palace for two or three hours, and apart from Xiao Heye and Li Xun, no one else had seen her.
The next day, the emperor regained consciousness and kept muttering that he wanted to find Lin Yan, kill Lin Yan, and exterminate her entire family.
Even if you dug up the entire imperial city three feet deep, you couldn't find a single person named Lin Yan.
No such person found.
Everyone thought the emperor had gone mad.
Because after that night, the emperor became a complete cripple.
Sometimes he would shout and scream like a madman, and other times he would sit alone on the ground, without saying a word.
