"I know Your Majesty doesn't believe me. We can't climb up now anyway. It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not. I don't care if Your Majesty believes me."
She said she didn't care, but she clearly wanted someone to believe her.
"I believe it." The emperor lowered his eyes and added a few more sticks to the fire.
Xu Lingyi's eyes flashed with surprise, and her pupils lit up instantly.
"What did your Majesty say? Do you believe what your subject says?"

Xu Lingyi was slightly stunned. She had never thought that he would say such a thing.
"Then Your Majesty will help me punish them?" Xu Lingyi asked hopefully.
The emperor shook his head.

A rare smile flashed in the emperor's eyes.
