Mu Yan never thought that he would have the opportunity to meet the emperor face to face.
Kneeling on the ground, looking at the man lying on the bed, his face was pale, but his eyes were still majestic, and he exuded the aura of a king, Mu Yan couldn't take his eyes away from him.
Sitting weakly on the bed, Xia Yuanfeng frowned slightly as he glanced at Mu Yan, who was kneeling on the ground and whom he hadn't seen for a while.
I walked before the gate of hell, and when I woke up, I heard the story of what happened from the confidants around me.
If it was Mu Yan who did that, it was definitely not impossible.
After all, it was himself who personally caused the destruction of Cangqiong Kingdom.
"Get up, stop kneeling."
He spoke softly to Mu Yan, who was kneeling on the ground.
Xia Yuanfeng closed his eyes tiredly.
"I want to hear your explanation about witchcraft."
Unexpectedly, the emperor would ask him about this matter so directly.
Mu Yan was stunned for a moment before slowly standing up.
My legs were numb and sore as I had never kneeled on anyone before.
After scanning around the people in the room, Mu Yan couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
She has no objection to the Queen and Xia Mingyi being here, but why does Murong Zixuan also appear in this room?
Who is he?
"Back to the Emperor, Mu Yan has nothing to say about this matter.
I didn't do it, and I will never admit it no matter what.
I hope the Emperor will investigate this matter thoroughly."
He lowered his eyes and spoke politely in a low voice.
According to the official statement, Mu Yan was more or less helpless.
If the emperor knew the truth of the matter, would he really give her justice?
"Everyone has gained the stolen goods, but you still have the nerve to quibble."
She glared at Mu Yan.
Queen Jiang Shuying made no secret of her disgust towards Mu Yan.
"The things were found in your room.
If it's not yours, who could it be, Prince Xia?"
A cold light flashed in her eyes.
When Jiang Shuying thought of Xia Yifeng, the disgust in her eyes increased a bit.
Mu Yan, who had been watching her, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Shut up."
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.
Opening his eyes slightly and looking at Jiang Shuying sitting next to him, Xia Yuanfeng coughed twice.
"Let her continue."
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
The emperor's move made Mu Yan's sinking mood begin to change.
"Mu Yan doesn't want to quibble, he just wants to state some facts."
He stared fearlessly into the emperor's eyes.
Xia Yuanfeng was startled by Mu Yan's move.
"I don't know what benefits I can get by killing the emperor.
Maybe the emperor and the queen will think that I have always had hatred for you, so it is understandable to do such a thing.
But what Mu Yan wants to tell you is , please don’t think too highly of me.
After all, I am just a woman.
My country is gone, my family is gone.
What strength do I have to resist, and what qualifications do I have to fight against my fate?”

Standing there with a trembling voice, Mu Yan's words penetrated into the hearts of Xia Mingyi and Murong Zixuan.
"Your Majesty."
Murong Zixuan took a step forward and stood side by side with Mu Yan.
Murong Zixuan narrowed his eyes with a solemn expression, "A common man is not talented.
I would like to say a few words for Princess Xia, please allow Your Majesty."
Unexpectedly, Murong Zixuan would stand up for Mu Yan.
Xia Yuanfeng nodded, moved, and stared at the man and woman in front of him with bright eyes.
"According to the common people's opinion, the emperor fell ill this time only because he was poisoned.
It has nothing to do with the theory of witchcraft."
Paying careful attention to his words, Murong Zixuan understood that as long as If he couldn't say a word well, Mu Yan might be in danger of being beheaded.
"Whether it matters or not, it doesn't matter now."
Looking at Mu Yan deeply, Xia Yuanfeng raised his voice slightly, "What's important is, why are there those things in your room?
I want to know if the reason is not yours, or if it is I don't want to hear your explanation, I just want to hear the truth."
The king's aura flowed silently in the air.
He glanced coldly at the people in the room and Xia Yuanfeng frowned.
"Why didn't Feng'er come today?"
When Xia Yifeng was mentioned, the atmosphere in the room instantly became more tense.
Even Eunuch Li, who was standing far away and waiting at the door, felt a little depressed.
When the emperor woke up, there was indeed a decree calling Prince Xia to enter the palace to meet the emperor.
Unfortunately, one day has passed, but Prince Xia is still missing.
"Father."
Xia Mingyi, who had been silent until now, unexpectedly knelt down.
What surprised everyone even more was the next few words he blurted out.
"The things in Princess Xia's room were put in by my son.
Now that things have happened, I don't want to implicate other people anymore, so I ask my father to convict me."
"Yi'er, what are you talking about?"
Jiang Shuying stood up nervously and looked at Xia Yuanfeng with a pale face.
"Your Majesty, Yi'er is lying.
You must not believe him."
"Mother, every word of your son and minister is true.
Mother, please stop defending your son and minister."
A faint look and an indifferent smile.
Seeing this expression on Xia Mingyi's face again, Mu Yan suddenly understood what Xia Yifeng's purpose was in doing all this.
As if time had stood still, the silence in the room was suffocating.
Clenching his fists hard, Mu Yan looked at Xia Mingyi who was kneeling on the ground in disbelief.
She didn't expect that he would pay so much for herself.
He is the prince of a country and the future emperor.
But after these words are spoken, he is nothing.
It is even difficult to determine whether his life can be saved.
He is a chess piece in Xia Yifeng's hands, just a chess piece.
Xia Yifeng used herself to make a bet with Xia Mingyi, betting on whether Xia Mingyi would watch her die, or whether she would risk all the crimes for her.
For Xia Mingyi, he knows better than anyone how much courage and pressure it takes to admit this matter.
But now, he is still kneeling on the ground so calmly, trying hard to exonerate Mu Yan. .
"Say what you said again."
Looking at the man kneeling on the ground with his head down sharply, Xia Yuanfeng felt as if his head was about to split open.

"The witchcraft doll in Princess Xia's house was put in by Er Chen.
Not long ago, Er Chen went to Prince Xia's Mansion to find Princess Xia.
Both his father and mother also knew that Er Chen had always had a crush on Princess Xia.
So after she repeatedly rejected him, he did something like that out of resentment.
Now that he has realized his mistake, he asks his father to convict him."
"Shut up!"
A slap hit Xia Mingyi on the face.
Jiang Shuying's whole body was shaking and she could hardly stand still.
He knelt on the ground with a bang and kept kowtowing hard, "Your Majesty, please check clearly.
Yi'er is definitely not responsible for this matter.
Your Majesty, don't listen to his nonsense.
He was messed up by this woman Mu Yan."
How could he possibly do such a thing with his mind?
Absolutely not."
Biting her lower lip, Mu Yan looked at the scene in front of her and suddenly felt a little helpless.
The prince premeditated the assassination of the emperor.
What a heinous crime this was.
How many people would lose their heads for this?
Turning his head silently and looking at Murong Zixuan who was staring at him with a confused look on his face, Mu Yan knew that the world of Yixuan Country was really going to change:
