The side hall of the Kunning Palace was completely silent. It was so quiet that Emperor Shang thought that the child had fallen asleep.

"What should I hate my father for?" Shang Wuxin closed her eyes as she laid on the soft couch, her voice making Emperor Shang's heart ache, "Should I hate royal father for letting me off on purpose to protect me, or should I hate royal father for letting me off on purpose to divert the murderous intent from evil people, or should I hate royal father for sending people to protect me?"

Yes, Shang Wuxin had known from the start that perhaps the former Emperor did not know of the Emperor's good intentions, but the present Shang Wuxin understood everything.

If Emperor Shang did not really love this child, how could he let Shang Wuxin live for so many years? Although it was true that Steward Hai was protecting him, it was easy for Emperor Shang to stop him from teaching him how to read and write. What was more important was that the princes had not killed Shang Wuxin for so many years. Although Shang Wuxin had suffered a lot, most of them had managed to escape by luck. No, many of them were Emperor Shang's secret protections.

More importantly, Shang had already begun to doubt himself when he came out of the woods unintentionally and sensed that someone was following him without malice. Later on, she confirmed that these people had not come to kill her, but who else in Shang would care about her so much other than Steward Hai? At that time, Shang Wuxin was already suspecting Emperor Shang.

After that, when he met Emperor Shang for the first time, even though Emperor Shang had disguised himself well, Shang Wuxin could see through the father's concern for his daughter. There were many things he did not understand, but he also knew the kind heart of the State of Shang towards him. This made him feel more at ease. After all, it would be very troublesome to fight against an emperor.

Emperor Shang asked in surprise, "You already know?"

Shang Wuxin's eyes were closed, a "hmm" coming from his nose.

Emperor Shang looked at his child with a complex expression, and only slowly opened his eyes after a long while did he say, "This is the autumn that I met your mother. That day, I came in private to bring a few guards along in the street to meet the extremely beautiful Qiu'er. At that moment, I knew that I had fallen in love with this woman who was as peaceful as autumn." It was also during that autumn that I learned what love at first sight was. I often left the palace for Qiu'er's sake after I let go of the Emperor's identity. Even though I met with Qiu'er's cold glare during that period of time, it was a very happy period of time! "

As Emperor Shang spoke, his eyes were filled with reminiscence, "Later, I finally moved Qiu'er, and told her who I was." I know that Qiu'er is an unrestrained and unrestrained woman of the martial world, so I promise her that in the future, I will only dote on her. If I knew that I would meet Qiu'er in this life, I would obediently wait for her. I wouldn't have so many concubines and children! "This is a debt I owe you, and also a grievance I feel towards Qiu'er!"

From Emperor Shang's slow narration, Shang did not have the heart to know many things and the reason.

Emperor Shang was not the most powerful prince of the late emperor. At that time, Emperor Shang did not have the intention to ascend the throne, but because he did not have the intention to do so, some people took a fancy to him and made him into a puppet emperor. Emperor Shang had struggled for many years until he met the empress. He had fallen in love and wanted to give her a firm and simple environment. Therefore, he fought back with all his might in order to wipe out the traitors of the imperial court.

However, the fact that a woman without any matriarchal influence had ascended to the position of the empress was already an accusation. More importantly, the empress had never gotten pregnant after she had ascended to the throne of Kun Ning Palace. Emperor Shang originally had a son, so he did not mind. However, Emperor Shang had little control over the imperial court, and it was at this time that Empress Qiu was poisoned. Emperor Shang had searched the world for famous doctors to save Empress Qiu, but the poison was not yet clear.

Later, the officials all folded their sleeves. If the empress did not give birth to the crown prince, she would be thrown into the cold palace. At that time, Emperor Shang was infuriated, but killing his subjects was of no avail. Emperor Shang was even more careful after Queen Autumn's pregnancy. After all, Empress Autumn's body was very weak. Emperor Shang was indeed an infatuated man. Ever since he married Queen Autumn, he had touched other women, even after the death of Queen Autumn. Otherwise, he would not have made Shang Wuxin his last child.

Everyone was envious and jealous of the fact that the empress had finally given birth to a princess instead of a prince. Even the princess, Queen Autumn, and Emperor Shang were very fond of her, but this child's gender brought about endless trouble. As a result, Emperor Shang ordered everyone to be executed without a sound, and announced the news of the empress giving birth to the crown prince. Shang Wuxin had also changed from a princess to a crown prince, becoming the heir to Shang Country.

However, after the fall empress had died of illness, Emperor Shang discovered that the more love he had for his daughter, the more harm he would inflict on her. He had already lost his most beloved woman … If his daughter left, he would not be able to bear it anymore. Therefore, Emperor Shang deliberately distanced himself from his daughter, sending her out of the palace to build the crown prince's mansion. He knew that Steward Hai was loyal to him, so he let him serve her.

Gradually, when his daughter grew up, Emperor Shang realized that not only was she weak in the body, but she was also cowardly and incompetent. Thus, he had always been thinking of a way out for his daughter. He thought about how his daughter would survive if he went there. At that time, Emperor Shang had never thought that his daughter could inherit the position, not because of her gender, but because of her ability. After all, the position of emperor was not a joke.

However, not long after his daughter returned from the forest, Emperor Shang felt that everything had changed. Empress Shang felt that perhaps her own daughter was hiding something, and her heart ached and felt proud at the same time. However, Emperor Shang didn't move to see how capable this daughter was. If he couldn't, then he could only arrange a way out for his daughter in the future. However, the situation in Phoenix City allowed Emperor Shang to see hope, and he only had his daughter who was powerful enough to manage the country, so he made a bold decision to support his daughter even if she was only a woman.

"I didn't protect your mother in the past, but now I hope to protect you!" Emperor Shang came to the couch and looked at his daughter, who still had her eyes closed. He reached out to touch her face, "My daughter, I will definitely protect you well!"

Emperor Shang had been tired after talking for so long, but his daughter, the little princess, was still sleeping there. If it wasn't for Emperor Shang's knowledge of his daughter not sleeping, he would have thought that he was talking to the air.

Emperor Shang patted the hands that were folded across his stomach, feeling the stiffness and rejection of his daughter when he touched her hand. Emperor Shang's heart was complicated. He knew that he owed his daughter and failed to take good care of her. Letting his daughter, who should have enjoyed all the good things, bear the responsibility of a man. It was his father's fault.

"Xin'er, Father knows that you have the ability." "So from now on, whatever you want to do, Royal Father will not interfere!" Emperor Shang stood up and left after speaking. If it wasn't for the fact that his daughter was incompetent, he wouldn't have given up so easily. But now that his daughter was smart, he naturally felt more at ease.

"What if his brothers and sisters are harmed?" Shang Wuxin asked with a smile that was not a smile, the corners of her lips curling up in a strange smile.

Shang Wuxin did not reject this father, but she also knew that the princes and princesses were his own children. Perhaps Emperor Shang had no feelings for these concubines, but that did not mean he had no feelings for his own children. He did not want to deny that Emperor Shang's love for him did not deny his love for his mother, but was it enough for him to turn a blind eye to his cruel methods?

He was going to die eventually. Shang had never felt that he was a softhearted person, and if he wanted to live, he had to kill more people, including his own half-brothers and sisters.

His back was facing Shang Wuxin, so Shang Wuxin did not see the bitterness and sorrow on the face of the Emperor. His brows were knitted tightly, but his mouth still uttered, "Royal Father knows the price for living, Royal Father is only you, a child!"

As soon as Emperor Shang left Kunning Palace, didn't Emperor Shang feel sad? No, he was sad. Even if the children were not his favorite, even if he did not pour out any love towards them, he would still feel the same pain from those children who were related to him by blood.

The current Emperor Shang was no longer the same kind man who had just ascended the throne. After so many slashes of good and bad people, Emperor Shang had gotten used to the blood. He was well aware of what this position represented. If he let his daughter go easy on him, he would lose his daughter's life. He could lose those children, but he couldn't lose his beloved daughter. He was no exception, so if those children were smart, they would obediently become princes. Otherwise …

Hearing Emperor Shang's reply, the smile on Shang Wuxin's lips became strangely warm, and his eyes, which had been closed all this time, were filled with colorful light. If Emperor Shang's reply had not satisfied her, not only would she not have changed her mind, she would have forcefully cut him off from the rest of her life.

What she needed was to be by her side forever. Even if she was cruel and dark, even if she was a demon that only one person could stand up for, the people around her would not advise her to accompany him in his fall.

Perhaps the worry in his heart was solved, so he did not really fall asleep. However, Shang Wuxin had no idea that the person who woke her up was actually the one who had hallucinated her. Seeing how she woke up, Shang Wuxin came to a sudden understanding.

They were like the eyes of the man who had given him warmth but locked him in deeper darkness.

Shang Wuxin suddenly stood up and dragged Mirage over, throwing it on the soft bed and bending over it to press it down …
