The Emperor laughed in exasperation, the words "You think I don't dare to punish you" stuck in his throat, unable to come out as he looked at her.
The anger in his heart and the helpless expression on his face forced the Emperor to end with a doting smile, as if he had no way to deal with her.

Only Shen Ruoxi could leave the Emperor speechless, unable even to utter a word of punishment, ending up accepting everything indulgently.
This stirred a sourness and bitterness in their hearts.
"In the end, it's Princess Consort Zhan's mistake, isn't it?" After a long silence, the Emperor squeezed out this sentence.
"Indeed, I am at fault too. But since Your Majesty doesn't wish to punish me, shouldn't we find out who exactly was responsible for poisoning Consort Xian?" Shen Ruoxi said calmly.
