However, at this moment, no one was paying attention to Old Lady Mu anymore.

Looking at the group of people pulling Mu Qingya out, Qingluo’s gaze was filled with despair.

She felt like her sky had collapsed, and for the first time, she regretted what she had done.

If…

If she had not targeted Little Nine… If she had not been so jealous, would her daughter have been in trouble, and would the emperor’s son-in-law’s manor had been dragged down by her?

“Father, I know that she is wrong, and she knows that she is wrong.”

She kowtowed frantically.

Blood seeped from a wound on her forehead, but she still seemed to be unaware of it as she kowtowed desperately.

When the emperor saw Qingluo’s appearance, he could not bear it, but when he thought of what she had done, a wave of anger surged to his heart once more.

“Someone, take Qingluo away and lock her up too! ” The emperor forced himself to seem cold. “Qingluo, this is the price you must pay!”

Qingluo trembled and slowly closed her eyes.

Yes, this was the price she… Must pay!

Qingluo spurted a mouthful of blood, and her body fell backward.

The emperor ordered someone to help Qingluo up and then take her out to lock her up.

Prince Min clenched his fists tightly, and his resentful gaze was fixed upon Qingluo and her daughter being dragged away. His heart was about to explode with anger.

‘I blame Qingluo and Mu Qingya!

‘If it weren’t for them, this wouldn’t have happened!’

However, even if Prince Min regretted it, it was already useless. He could only blame himself for being too stupid and trusting this pair of snake women.

Everyone had been dragged out of the room.

Old Lady Mu did not make a big mistake and was not locked up.

Looking at the empty imperial study room, the emperor seemed to have aged a few dozen years.

His daughter and his granddaughter…

How could he not be heartbroken?

Yet again, there was no way.

He must settle it quickly…

“General Sima, it was my mistake. It was my mistake before.”

The emperor caressed his face as his tears rolled down his weathered face.

“I was too indulgent of Qingya, which made her so ignorant and even almost harmed the whole kingdom.”

“This is because I, to the end, still pitied them. I did not bear to lock them up. I just let them stay in the emperor’s son-in-law’s manor and ordered people to guard them not to let them out…

“If I had been more ruthless, if I had just imprisoned all of them, then all of these would not happen, and they might have been safe.”

Indulging a son was like killing a son.

This was the same for granddaughters.

It was ridiculous that he had always thought that Qingya was well-behaved and understanding, but he did not know that she could still do such a thing.

“Emperor, it is not your fault. Even if you lock them up, they still have other ways to escape.”

Sima Yan sighed.

“But I do not understand. The princess and Noble Lady have everything. Why do they hold such great resentment against Little Nine? And in this matter, Mu Yi also did not do any right. He abandoned Little Nine and chose the emperor’s family.

“This man is greedy. I think the Ninth Emperor will not forgive him…” Sima Yan said and smiled again.

Not only would she not forgive him…

It seemed that even before, the Ninth Emperor also did not care for him, considering that he had been bugging and trying to get the Ninth Emperor back home.

Putting aside which home he had now, but could there be a good end to have the Ninth Emperor back?
