The person standing on the stone steps was naturally Ye Cangming.
At this moment, Ye Cangming still wore the black mask, those cold eyes, and that aura that kept people at a distance.
Because he was standing high up, the feeling of oppression was even stronger.
Su Jingchu and Su Liyue looked at Ye Cangming almost at the same time, but Su Liyue looked away immediately.
Su Jingchu, on the other hand, had a pale face and looked at Ye Cangming at a loss.
War King, how much did she hear?
Ye Cangming didn't look at Su Jingchu, but instead fixed his gaze on Su Liyue. His eyes were filled with displeasure, and his tone was even colder. "Whose love do you want to help?"
Upon hearing this, Su Liyue raised her eyes and met Ye Cangming's eyes, which were cold and without a trace of warmth.
But for some reason, she was not afraid at all, and a nameless anger rose in her heart.
It was clearly Su Jingchu who came to provoke her. Why was he so blind and deaf that he came to pick a fight with her?
"Of course..."
Su Liyue was ready to challenge directly, because if she said it out loud, she would not be the one who would be embarrassed in the end.
But just as she opened her mouth, Su Liyue stopped talking.
Because her eyes were now all on the little boy who walked out from behind Ye Cangming.
The little boy is as cute as a piece of jade, with red lips and white teeth.
Moreover, it seems like I have seen it somewhere.
It only took a second for Su Liyue to remember.
Isn’t this boy exactly like the man at the bottom of the cliff who she had sex with?
Could it be...
"Mother—"
Just as Su Liyue was lost in thought, she heard the little boy speak.
Mother?
Who to call?
Su Liyue was stunned, her heart was beating inexplicably, and she stared at the little boy without blinking, as if she was possessed by a demon.
At this time, Su Jingchu said from the side, "Let's go, mother will take you back."
Su Jingchu wanted to escape. She didn't want to stay here at all at this moment.
Ye Yucheng nodded after hearing this and walked down the stairs step by step.
However, there was a barely perceptible curiosity in those beautiful eyes as they looked at Su Liyue.
Is this person the Fifth Emperor's Aunt?
It doesn't look very smart.
Under Su Liyue's gaze, Ye Yucheng walked to Su Jingchu's side.
Su Jingchu quickly glanced at Ye Cangming and said, "Fifth brother, I'm leaving first."
After saying that, he turned around, with no intention of holding Ye Yucheng's hand. His back looked hurried and embarrassed.
Ye Yucheng seemed to have long been accustomed to this kind of treatment, and he didn't show anything on his face. But before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at Su Liyue before jogging to catch up with Su Jingchu.
Su Liyue just watched the small figure disappear from her sight, but her heart was filled with turmoil.
The child looks so much like the man from that day. Does that mean that the man and the child have some relationship?
Could it be... Prince Duan?
Or...someone else in the royal family?
"Be careful what you say in front of the Emperor!"
Just as Su Liyue was lost in thought, Ye Cangming had already walked up to her and said this.
Su Liyue came back to her senses, but before she could meet Ye Cangming's gaze, Ye Cangming walked past her.
Su Liyue frowned. What did Ye Cangming mean?
Is he caring about her or warning her?
"Princess Zhan, the emperor is waiting for you!" At this moment, Eunuch Xi appeared on the stone steps, still with that smiling face.
Su Liyue collected her thoughts and walked up the stone steps.
No matter what Ye Cangming meant, it was just a matter of fighting back against the enemy with our troops and covering the water with earth.
In the imperial study, Emperor Ye Kunlin, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, sat behind the dragon desk, holding a memorial in his hand. He gave people a sense of majesty without being angry.
Su Liyue had previous experience, so upon entering the imperial study, she knelt respectfully and saluted, "Your Highness, your son pays respects to your father."
Ye Kunlin didn't say anything, he just changed the book and continued reading.
Su Liyue's heart tightened and she didn't dare to move, just kept her knees bent.
After Ye Kunlin saw the third memorial, he said without even looking up, "Su Liyue, do you admit your guilt?"
The voice was light, and no emotion could be detected in it, but it carried the oppressive feeling inherent in those in power, making it difficult to guess what the emperor was thinking.
Gritting her teeth, Su Liyue decided to play dumb, "I wonder what crime this son of yours has committed?"
Su Liyue didn't look up, so she didn't know that after she asked this question, Ye Kunlin raised his head and looked at her in surprise, and then his expression was a little puzzled.
Ye Kunlin then put down the memorial in his hand and looked at Su Liyue with a stern gaze. "You ruined the marriage arranged by the Queen Mother and disobeyed her. And yet you still come to ask me what crime you have committed? How dare you!"
At the end of his speech, his tone was full of majesty, and the atmosphere in the entire imperial study began to freeze at this moment.
Eunuch Xi raised his eyelids, glanced at Su Liyue, then lowered his eyes and continued to be his background.
Su Liyue's heart sank at this moment.
Sure enough, the emperor also came to question her.
However, even a clay figure has some temper, not to mention that she had been bullied repeatedly today, which made Su Liyue not want to endure it anymore.
She is not a patient person anyway.
Besides, the Empress Dowager’s attack could be resolved, but the Emperor’s words were final.
If the emperor wanted to punish her, there would be little room for reversal.
In this case, why not fight back?
Thinking of this, Su Liyue looked up and met Ye Kunlin's majestic eyes, "There are some things I don't understand, and I would like to ask Father for advice."
A strange look flashed across Ye Kunlin's majestic eyes. "What's the matter?"
Su Liyue heard this, a trace of grievance on her face. "I just want to know, wasn't it you, Father, who granted me this marriage? Or, when did you retract your decision?"
