The man's doubts resounded in the darkness, causing the water in front of him, which was looking forward to leave, to tremble. And with the quiet that followed, Shui Ruo could only feel his heart flustered.

It can't be that Emperor Shang knew something, right? With this thought in mind, Shui Yuehan walked a little faster, praying that he wouldn't ask any further questions. Just pretend you didn't hear it.

"You are not Shui Ruo." The man's words sounded almost certain.

Shui Long, who originally wanted to escape, could no longer avoid this question. Water did not turn around for a long time because even though it was night time, she did not want to face others while she was lying.

With his back facing her, Shui Ruo tried to keep his tone calm as much as possible, "Prince, you must be joking. If I'm not Shui Ruo, then who am I?"

"I don't know, but you're not her." Night Emperor Shang was confident. At the same time, he was also hoping that if she wasn't the real Shui Ruo, then he would have the qualification to snatch her away. Because the person who married the Night Emperor was Shui Ruo, just a code name.

"Your Highness, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't speak carelessly. It's one thing for the two of us to say something like that, but if we cause an unnecessary misunderstanding in front of outsiders, then the matter will become big. " Shui Yuehan's tone was cold, with a hint of anger in it. And this anger was precisely due to his own guilt. That damned Night Emperor Shang! It was too sensitive!

"This King has never been afraid of things getting out of hand. This King investigated the person called Shui Long. Your personality and way of doing things are not at all similar to hers. Maybe something really went wrong with the water, so Master Shui got you here? " Night Emperor Shang guessed.

However, he heard Shui Ruo laugh. "Your Highness is really an expert at making up stories. But, what a pity. I am the real Shui Yuehan, and also the only Shui family's daughter. "As for the personality that you speak of, it is just a false impression made to deceive those branch families of the Shui family that are plotting against us. I never thought that it would actually be a deceit made by one of your subordinates."

Shui Long had gotten used to being exposed, but he managed to calm down and regained his composure. At the same time, it was also confirmed that this person didn't have any substantial evidence. Of course, other than her, no one else would know either.

Shui Yuehan calmed down as he thought about this.

Hearing Shui Long's words, Night Emperor Shang frowned. Indeed, according to Shui Yuehan, it was not impossible. However, he still intuitively felt that the woman in front of him shouldn't be. No, he hoped she wasn't.

Perhaps, it was his way of thinking that was too selfish. Thinking up to here, Night Emperor gave a self-deprecating laugh, "Perhaps this king has overthought things. However, if you aren't the real Shui Ruo, this king will definitely marry you and give you the title of wangfei. "

Emperor Shang's words caused Shui Chou to be stunned. Then he remembered what he had asked her last night. At that time, he had said that he would absolutely not let her be an imperial concubine. But now, it had changed?

Then, he thought, could this be what she was thinking of? It was just a joke. He didn't think that this person would be so serious. For a moment, Shui Ruo didn't know how to express his embarrassment. However, it was mostly towards this person, Night Emperor Shang, that came as a surprise.

"What I want is not the position of an imperial concubine. What happened between me and the Third Marquis was only because of the times and people. There were some things that, once missed, were destined to never happen again. Your Highness, don't be too stiff. " Shui Ruo couldn't console others, but he still couldn't help but speak to Night Emperor Shang. Although, this person didn't feel sad because he couldn't marry her.

In modern times, she was almost nothing but a murderer. Besides the mission, it was a luxury to hold hands with men. He was simply a blank sheet of paper when it came to worldly wisdom. Therefore, she was also clumsy in comforting others. He was so clumsy that it was hard to laugh and cry.

Emperor Shang heard Shui Ruo's words, but they were not comforting words. In the darkness, he broke out into a smile. Only he himself knew how brilliant, how real, and how gentle it was.

Soon, sunlight shone into the secret passageway. They were about to reach the exit. For some reason, Night Emperor Shang suddenly felt somewhat unwilling. He hoped that this road would be longer, and that her clumsiness would appear before him. Although his clumsy look made people at a loss whether to laugh or to cry, he still liked it to the point where he wanted to kill himself.

"I'm finally out!" After exiting the secret passage, Shui Long took a deep breath and shouted as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. After coming out, when he heard her words, he could not help but smile, "It's only been a short period of time. Why does it feel like he's been locked up for a few years?"

Listening to Night Emperor Shang's teasing, Shui Ruo said in a serious tone, "I hate darkness."

These words caused Night Emperor Shang to be stunned. Hate the dark? Her performance just now didn't seem to be annoying at all.

"However, I also like it a lot. I do love and hate the darkness. " The expression on Shui Yuehan's face was complicated, as if he had thought of something. When Night Emperor Shang saw Shui Ruo act in such a manner, his eyes flickered. Intuition told him that there must be a rather touching story behind all of this. And that story, was it the real place that touched upon Shui Ruo's personality?

Thinking of this, the man suddenly became curious.

For those in a higher position, maintaining curiosity was the most unnecessary. Because of curiosity, he would have desires that he shouldn't have, as well as innocence that he shouldn't have. As a person of power, innocence meant death. He couldn't afford to be confused while he was in the whirlpool. But damn it, this woman … However, he couldn't help but be curious. Even if it meant eternal damnation after this.

In the capital, the most beautiful place was the shallow water lake. The lake's name was strange, but it was very suitable.

This lake looked very shallow, but it was enough to allow the boat to swim upwards. It was even impossible to see the bottom of this lake. The clarity of the lake was astonishing.

Light Water Lake was the favorite place for young masters to visit. At the center of the lake, there were many large boats and even a few pleasure boats. Every day on this lake, there was some interesting news.

Water followed Night Emperor Shang and arrived at the lakeside.

Looking at the lake that didn't seem to be very deep, the water slowly and deeply sighed with emotion. The memories of his predecessor contained information regarding this lake. However, when they truly saw it, they would still feel shocked. There was actually such a clear lake. If he didn't know, he wouldn't even know how he died when he fell!

"Follow me." Just when Shui Ruo was lamenting about the lake, Night Emperor Shang suddenly opened his mouth and pulled her along. He arrived at an empty pleasure boat.

On the side of the cruise liner, there was only a woodcutter.

"You, start the boat." He then leisurely carried the water onto the pleasure boat, and then paid it no heed.

"You asked a person to sail such a large pleasure boat. Are you sure he can move it?" Shui Long's mouth twitched slightly and he could not help but ask.

Hearing this, Night Emperor said indifferently, "I want him to use the pleasure boat. If he is unable to do so, then there is no use for him to be alive."

"This pleasure boat is yours?" Shui Ruo was somewhat surprised. He looked around and clicked his tongue. Everything here, in this country, was priceless. Night Emperor Shang was truly unfathomable.

Wouldn't it be better to place the items from the cruise liner in his mother's courtyard? To him, how could he be so persistent as to maintain that place as it was before?

Shui Ruo was confused, but she did not ask.

There were some things that should be asked, and some things that shouldn't be asked. An Ta knew the most basic way to interact with others. If he asked too many questions, it would become sticky. In the end, it would be difficult to separate them.

"Can you play?" Seeing the long passage of time, Night Emperor Shang suddenly opened his mouth. Shui Long heard this and was shocked. Who would have thought that he would suddenly ask? But after a moment, he nodded. "A little, but I don't want to play." Shui Ruo's decisive words completely sealed the man's next sentence.

He could play the zither, and then he hoped that she would play the zither! In his memory, his predecessor knew how to play the zither. However, his own words might not be good enough. It was better not to embarrass himself in front of this man!

Shui Ruo thought to himself. He had already made up his mind.

Seeing that she did not want to force him, Emperor Ye Shang did not force her. Instead, he took down the guqin that was placed in the room and started fiddling with it.

The facts had proven that there were some people who looked good, but when they were perfect, they were no longer human! The seemingly difficult zither played in the man's hand like an obedient child. It gave off a pleasant chapter.

The water looked on, envious. He was good-looking, had a strange nature, was intelligent, multi-talented, and even had an arrogant identity. He was simply a born winner. He was born to be above the masses and look down upon the common people.

The man's zither music was very pleasing to the ears. It did not seem to have a long and thin stream of tranquility, nor did it seem to be changing in a high mountain or flowing river. Instead, it was a strange tune. In his melody, there was a sense of unbridled freedom and an unachievable pain. Hearing this song, Shui Ruo inexplicably felt that there was a resonance.

He was even a little sleepy. Looking at the man, Xiao Yan opened his mouth and then slowly closed his eyes.

After Shui Ruo fell asleep, he coincidentally laid on the Night Emperor Shang's leg. He was originally playing the zither when the woman suddenly placed him on her lap. He jumped, then revealed a smile of indulgence, and allowed her to lie there like this while he continued to play the zither.

No one had ever fallen asleep while listening to him play the zither. Was it really that boring? Or did he feel so relieved that he could sleep?

"What a defenseless woman." Emperor Shang helplessly said, as he took her body into his embrace. After that, he slowly closed his beautiful eyes and continued to play the zither.

With a beauty in her arms and a long zither in her hands, what could be more satisfying than this? The sound of Emperor Shang's zither changed for a time. It became a lot more cheerful than before.

He had never thought that he would one day play the zither for a girl. Not only that, he was even doing his best for her. One had to experience everything. Perhaps this was the feeling he was talking about? As he thought to himself, he tightened his grip on the water.

On the surface of the lake, many boats heard the melodious zither music coming from the boat and came out to watch. However, they only heard the zither music and didn't see the person playing the zither.

"Hey!" Get those who play the zither to come out! "
