"It's not about my daughter, it's about my father."

"Oh, that's good."

The Demon Emperor slowly sat down, and the spiritual energy in the room gradually subsided. Just now, the Demon Emperor had already imagined countless scenarios in his mind.

For example, he wanted to execute that guy, but Ye Ye said that if he died, he would die with him, and then he had no choice but to watch his daughter get married...

The pain is unbearable...

"Ye Ye, Father is perfectly fine in the palace, what could possibly have happened to him?"

The Demon Emperor smiled, his mood improving considerably.

"Father, why don't you sit down first?" Bai Yeye said with concern as he watched his father stand up again, worried that his father might fall down in a moment.

"Oh, alright, Ye Ye, you tell me, what does it have to do with Father Emperor?" The Demon Emperor never expected that he would be involved.

"Reporting to Father Emperor," Bai Yeye placed his hands in front of him and bowed deeply, "Consort Hua is having an affair with the Duke of Le."

"???"

Hearing his daughter's words, the Demon Emperor was completely stunned.

"Ye Ye, do you know what you're saying?"

"Yes, I know." Bai Yeye raised her head, looked directly into the Demon Emperor's eyes, and repeated, "Consort Hua and the Duke of Leguo were having an affair!"

"..."

The entire imperial study fell into a deathly silence.

Fortunately, there wasn't a single eunuch in the Imperial Study.

Otherwise, if any eunuch saw the Demon Emperor's current grim expression, that eunuch would surely lose his life.

"Do you have any evidence?" The Demon Emperor took a deep breath and spoke slowly, as if suppressing the anger in his heart.

There is no evidence.

Bai Yeye's tone was very firm.

"It's just Ye Ye's guess."

Ye Ye noticed that there was something off about the way Duke Le and Consort Hua were exchanging glances.

Moreover, on one occasion, Ye Ye saw the Duke of Leguo returning to the palace and not leaving. Then Ye Ye saw Consort Hua leaving her own palace.

If the Emperor doesn't believe me, he can summon the Duke of Le to attack at night and try to monitor Consort Hua three times in a row.

If Duke Le has never had any contact with Consort Hua, then Ye Ye is framing Duke Le, and Father Emperor can punish Ye Ye.

"..."

Looking at his daughter, the Demon Emperor's expression was not very pleasant.

It's one thing for his own harem to have affairs with other people.

Surprisingly, it was his own daughter who reminded him of this.

Although Ye Ye put it very euphemistically, how was it any different from Ye Ye pointing his finger at his own nose and saying, "Father, one of your concubines has cheated on you"?

"Father is aware of this matter. Ye Ye, you may leave now. Father will handle it upon returning."

The Demon Emperor sighed, looking utterly exhausted.

"Yes."

Bai Yeye knew that her father was in a very awkward situation, and it wouldn't be good for her to stay any longer.

So once he reminds his father, he can leave.

As for this matter, Father will definitely handle it.

Simply put, in Bai Yeye's memory, what her father hated most was betrayal.

If nothing unexpected happens, the reign of Duke Leguo is basically over.

After Bai Yeye left, the Demon Emperor sat on the soft couch, looking in the direction Bai Yeye had left in.

Recalling his daughter's words, the Demon Emperor withdrew his gaze, shook his head, but a slight smile appeared on his lips.

He didn't look embarrassed or awkward at all.

"My dear consort, tell me, how exactly did Ye Ye discover this?"

The Demon Emperor spoke with a smile, his tone carrying a hint of doubt, but more so, a sense of pride and smugness.

He felt proud and honored to have his daughter.

Just as the Demon Emperor finished speaking, a woman slowly emerged from behind the screen: "Your Majesty, I do not know either."

The woman was wearing a black strapless dress, and her high neck was adorned with layers of black pearls.

The woman stepped forward, stood behind the Demon Emperor, and extended her slender hands to massage his shoulders.

Her brown hair moved without wind, and her left-leaning bangs slightly obscured one of her clear, lake-like eyes on the left side.

Her slightly wavy hair was loose on both sides, with a long, thin ponytail hidden on each side, and her face was so fair and delicate that it was impeccable.

This person is Consort Si, the most favored consort of the Demon Emperor, without exception.

Since there was no empress in the harem, Consort Si served as the acting empress, responsible for managing the harem.

A eunuch once referred to Consort Si as Empress Si.

When this news reached the Second Middle School, the eunuch was beaten to death with a cane the very next day.

From that day forward, no one dared to call Consort Si "Empress" again.

However, everyone in the harem knew that the Demon Emperor would not appoint an Empress, but Consort Si was the Empress.

"Your Highness...you've really grown up..."

Sifei smiled slightly, her tone tinged with emotion.

"Yes, Ye Ye has grown up."

The Demon Emperor nodded in satisfaction, but soon, a hint of helplessness and disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"Actually, if I could, I would never have wanted Ye Ye to grow up."

As you grow up, you have to face many, many things.

She and her mother... look so alike...

Sifei smiled slightly and did not respond to those words.

Ye Ye's mother will always be a taboo subject in the harem. Apart from the King of the Southern Wilderness and the current Demon Emperor, no one is allowed to mention her.

Even when the Southern Wilderness King and the Demon Emperor meet, they will subconsciously avoid this topic.

"I'm leaving this task to you. Remember to do it well."

The Demon Emperor glanced at the beauty behind him.

"Yes."

Sifei nodded in agreement.

Chapter 689 From this point on, the Demon Kingdom has no heir.

In fact, the Demon Emperor already knew that Consort Hua and Lord Le were having an affair.

Or rather, in Consort Si's view, when His Majesty first saw Consort Hua, he knew what kind of woman she was.

Your Majesty is the ruler of a country, a man who has experienced the war between humans and demons and the struggle for the throne. What kind of people haven't you seen?

How could anyone not see through the fickle nature of a mere socialite?

Sifei's guess was indeed correct.

The Demon Emperor could tell at a glance that Consort Hua was a fickle and restless person.

However, the Demon Emperor was also troubled at the time, not knowing how to deal with his uncle.

After all, he was his uncle, and he had helped him when he was fighting for the throne.

If I were to directly attack him, I'm afraid I'd end up with a bad reputation.

So when the Demon Emperor saw Consort Hua again, he had a sudden inspiration and came up with this idea.

Consort Hua's original name was Hua Yan, which is different from her given name.

Hua Nian is extremely charming, and her prototype is an ordinary white fox.

Duke Leguo had a particular fondness for glamorous and shameless women like Hua Nian.

The Demon Emperor favored Hua Yan and then bestowed upon her the title of Noble Lady Hua.

For a long time afterward, the Demon Emperor favored Consort Hua and neglected her, not even setting foot in her palace for three whole years.

After such a long time, the fickle and promiscuous nobleman was naturally eager for more.

The Demon Emperor felt the time was right, so when he sent the Duke of Le to the palace, he arranged for them to meet.

Actually, this was just a casual move by the Demon Emperor; it didn't matter if the Duke of Le didn't take the bait.

Anyway, I don't need to spend too much energy on it.

Unexpectedly, the Duke of Le actually took the bait.

The moment the Duke of Le and Consort Hua began their affair, the Duke of Le's life was completely in the hands of the Demon Emperor.

The Demon Emperor can kill whenever he wants, but he hasn't made a move yet.

In the Demon Emperor's view, someone he could kill at will was no longer worth his attention.

When the time comes for him to die, he must die.

Originally, the Demon Emperor felt that Bai Yeye's appointment as the Director of the Verification and Sealing Department was too difficult and wanted to reduce the difficulty for his daughter.

For example, sending her the head of a duke.

As a result, the Demon Emperor was worried about how to give this head to his daughter, so that the life of the Duke of Le would become Ye Ye's achievement.

Unexpectedly, Ye Ye discovered it on his own.

The Demon Emperor was very satisfied.

As expected of my daughter, she is so outstanding.

As for the Duke of Leguo cuckolding the Demon Emperor?

It seems so.

But the so-called "green" refers to the betrayal of one's loved one by a woman.

But the Demon Emperor never cared about Hua Nian from beginning to end.

To the Demon King, Hua Nian was nothing more than a tool from the moment he first saw her.

"Alright, you may leave. I am a little tired and need to rest for a while. Tomorrow I will give Ye Ye a satisfactory answer."

The Demon Emperor patted Consort Si's small hand.

"Yes, Your Majesty, please rest assured. Your Majesty, please get some rest. I will take my leave now."

Consort Si bowed slightly and slowly retreated.

He left the Imperial Study and closed the door.

Consort Si stood at the door of the Imperial Study, her eyes darting around... her small hands tightly gripping her sleeves.

To His Majesty, Consort Hua is nothing more than a tool.

So, how does His Majesty view me...?

Am I merely a tool to Your Majesty? A tool to help Your Majesty manage the harem...?

Does His Majesty truly love me?

Even just a little bit...

Sifei clutched her chest tightly...

"I think so."
