However, Mu Yi, as if he did not notice it a bit, smiled and walked toward the Ninth Emperor.
“I came to look for you yesterday, and when I saw you sleeping, I left. So I came early this morning.”
The Ninth Emperor looked at Mu Yi and frowned. “Then, what are you doing here?”
“I came to see you. I want to ask about what happened yesterday.” Mu Yi looked a bit hesitant. Perhaps he did not know if it should be said or not, but he still said it anyway. “Yesterday, your sister came home soaking wet. I want to ask you what happened. She just wants you to go home, so she came to meet you.”
The Ninth Emperor looked blank and puzzled. “I don’t know. Was she mad?”
Mu Yi froze, and his face slightly stiffened.
“Little Nime, what do you mean by that?” He trembled and asked.
The Ninth Emperor sneered and shrugged. “Yesterday, she came to me, stood in my courtyard for half a day, and did not say anything. But finally, all of a sudden, she jumped into the lake.”
‘All of a sudden… She jumped down the lake?’
Mu Yi froze. ‘So it’s not Little Nine who pushed her? Why did Qingya jump into the lake?’
“So, you should not ask me. You should go back and ask her what is wrong. If she wants to bathe, there is no need to come to me, or does she like the feeling of being wet?”
“Little Nine!”
Mu Yi’s face changed dramatically. ‘Little Nine still isn’t telling the truth about Qingya…’
“Your sister… She would not jump for no reason. Little Nine, tell me what really happened. I’m doing this for you,” Mu Yi pleaded.
Facing the daughter in front of him, he did not dare to say too much.
‘What does he mean by doing this for me?
‘He’s here today to do justice for Mu Qingya.’
The Ninth Emperor sneered at Mu Yi.
“I said, if you want to know what happened, you should go back and ask her. There is no need for you to keep asking me here. If she did not jump down herself, are you implying that I pushed her? If so, why should I push her?”
Hearing the Ninth Emperor’s words, Dongfang Yu turned and looked at her.
The Ninth Emperor indeed did not push Mu Qingya. She picked her up and threw her in.
Mu Yi said he was just asking some questions, but he was just looking for trouble for her daughter in reality.
‘Why can he only believe in Mu Qingya’s words but not the Ninth Emperor, and he is still asking questions? If the Ninth Emperor told him what Mu Qingya said yesterday, I am afraid that this person will still only believe in Mu Qingya and not the Ninth Emperor.’
So, this was why the Ninth Emperor did not say anything, but she also did not like to take the blame for people.
“Little Nine… Qingya, how could she… Jump for no reason?” Mu Yi was still somewhat unconvinced.
Any ordinary person would not do this.
However, looking at Little Nine, it did not look like she was lying.
Maybe it was because Mu Qingya had followed him since he was young, so he was still more willing to believe Mu Qingya. After all, Qingya would never lie, much less do something like framing others.
The Ninth Emperor shrugged. “I said I don’t know. So you don’t have to keep asking me! I don’t welcome any of you here either. So in the future, you don’t have to come to me and pollute my lake. I’m afraid she’ll poison all the fish in my lake.”
