Shen Lian looked at him, pushed away the others, and then slowly walked to him. "Aheng, are you still troubled by the rumors?"

Xiao Heng glanced at her and sighed, "An'er, the matter has become more and more serious. It is no longer just a rumor. Many courtiers in the court began to use this to make trouble, and more and more people stood on that side. The more there are, the more pressure I feel. If I can’t find out the person behind the scenes, or prove your identity with facts, I’m afraid..."

Duanmu'an is indeed a mermaid, this is an undisputed fact. Moreover, she also has the characteristics of a mermaid, that is, when she touches water, her tail will come out. This is something that no matter how strong her spiritual power is, she cannot hide it. 1 But the courtiers are all putting pressure on her, such as asking her to go into the water in public to prove her innocence. I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for long. She will be exposed soon.

Xiao Yu heard about this from the palace people and immediately ran to find them. When he ran into his father's palace, he walked around the screen and was about to pass by when he saw the two of them frowning. The father and mother seemed to be in a dilemma. Are they worried about the rumors? Xiao Yu couldn't help but wonder, is the mother really a shark?

Shen Lian was the first to see him coming, and raised a smile, "Yu'er, come here." Xiao Yu ran over and threw himself into Shen Lian's arms. While calling his mother, he threw himself into her arms. In her arms, Shen Lian held him in her arms, stroking his hair with one hand while talking to him softly.

Things went as Xiao Heng said. A few days later, more than half of the courtiers in the court stood on the side of the condemnation. They kept saying that the shark incident must be thoroughly investigated. Since it was pointed out that the current queen was a shark, it was even more An explanation should be given to the people of the world. The best way is to let the queen prove her innocence in full view of the public, so as to silence the public.

Otherwise, if things continue to evolve, I am afraid that the country and the country will be shaken. Xiao Heng said bluntly that he believed in Duanmu'an and that the queen would not be a shark. She was his pillow, wouldn't he be clear about it? Or was he cold? I looked at the courtiers coldly and said, "You don't believe me anymore."

But those people were just silent for a moment, and someone stood up to refute. This time, they actually worked together to prove that the queen was a shark. Some people even started to play the trick of killing Cambodia. But Xiao Heng saw it through, but he couldn't tell it clearly, otherwise once the minister really wanted to die, things would become even more uncontrollable.

However, the person behind the rumors, Xiao Heng's person, has never been found out. He has already thought about it, I am afraid that there is not one person behind the scenes, but several people. They joined forces, so his People are so talented that they haven't been able to find out until now. Now, I'm afraid this rumor has spread all over the world. They just want to make the matter bigger and make it impossible for him to deal with it.

In the court, more than half of the courtiers began to join forces to put pressure on him. They wanted Duanmu An to prove her innocence in public and prove that she was not a shark. Naturally, the rumors were self-defeating.

Xiao Heng became more and more irritable. An'er said that once she entered the water, she could hold on for half a stick of incense at most. But since they spread this rumor, they must also know the characteristics of the sharks. Otherwise, they would not yell, The way for the Queen to prove her innocence is to let her get into the water in public. So, I guess they are also aware of this.

Therefore, he could not let An'er enter the water in public. Once her fish tail could no longer hold up and was exposed in public, they were afraid that they would force him to execute An'er, a shark.

Shen Lian actually knew everything about the situation outside. She just pretended not to know. She was also aware of Xiao Heng's troubles and difficulties during this period. She also knew more or less about the things in the court. However, she There was nothing she could do. She had no connections in the court, not even in the palace. She was completely unable to help Xiao Heng and reduce his pressure.

Moreover, the rumors about the sharks are now directed at her. At this moment, it is better for her not to go out. Otherwise, she will only make the matter worse. However, Shen Lian has been thinking about it these past few days. This matter couldn't go any worse, otherwise, Duanmu'an's identity would really be hidden. So Shen Lian retreated for the day and asked the system master.

"Tongtong, are you there?"

System Master's long-lost voice rang in her mind, "What's the matter?" His words were brief, and his tone sounded quite cold.

Shen Lian cursed in her heart, and then realized that System Lord could hear her thoughts. So, she quickly stopped complaining and thought about nothing. In order to avoid offending him, she said carefully: "Everything, there is something I want to ask you, do you know who the person who spread this rumor is? How did they know that Duanmu'an is a shark? And, how much do they know about the sharks?"

System Master's voice was silent for a while, then sounded again: "I don't know."

"Can't you check it? You are also the system after all?" Shen Lian said dissatisfied.

What Mr. System said at the next moment was simply outrageous. "I don't have this obligation, and you don't have this right." After saying this, no matter how she threatened or induced, Mr. System stopped talking. So, Shen Lian could only give up on his side and ask for help. It seemed that she still had to find a way on her own.

By the way, after this period of time, the spiritual power in her body has recovered a lot. The shark clan is especially good at illusions, so why not make good use of this illusions?

Shen Lian seemed to suddenly clear the thick fog and see the blue sky, and she suddenly became clear. Yes, illusions can be of great use as long as they are used well. In fact, it is not that she can't do anything. Why not, she goes Secretly search for those ministers or common people who took the lead in clamoring. Use illusions to find out where the rumors came from in the first place.

Who are they and how much do they know? She knows herself and the enemy so well.

So, after thinking about it, Shen Lian suddenly became enlightened. However, she still needed to think about it carefully and plan carefully. Shen Lian thought about it and began to think about it in private. She had to plan carefully, but Nothing can go wrong. By the way, why not go find Xiao Heng, maybe he will have a better idea.

Shen Lian thought so, so she did the same. She immediately left her dormitory and went to find Xiao Heng. She had always been able to enter and leave Xiao Heng's dormitory freely, so this time it was the same. She didn't need to notify her, she just went on her own. She walked in. As soon as she reached the inner hall, she heard voices coming from inside.

Is there someone there? Shen Lian was a little hesitant to go in at this time. If they were discussing something important, it wouldn't be good for her to go in like this. Just as she was hesitating, she heard Xiao Heng's voice.

"What are you doing here?"

"I know what your Majesty is worried about. I can help you." Then came a voice that was as crisp and clear as an oriole's singing. It was very beautiful. As soon as you heard it, you knew it was a woman's voice.

Then, Xiao Heng said: "Oh? Really?"

The female voice said again: "Your Majesty, I can give birth to a prince for you. This way, the courtiers will no longer embarrass your Majesty. I have no intention of competing with the queen, as long as I have a son." It's enough to live by my side, and my wish is enough. Moreover, in the future, the prince born by my concubine will be able to help His Highness the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince will always need his brothers to help him, Your Majesty."

Xiao Heng remained silent, but there was a faint sound of clothes touching each other. Shen Lian began to feel uneasy, wondering what they were doing inside. Why did Xiao Heng stop talking, but there was a sound of clothes touching.

She quietly approached the inner hall, and even cast an invisibility spell the moment she entered. Just like that, she entered openly. However, the first thing Shen Lian saw was that Xiao Heng was holding a The woman hugged her. The two behaved intimately, and Xiao Heng did not push the woman away.

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes. Could it be that Xiao Heng was forced to give in due to pressure? Or, in order to break the rumors that were getting worse now, Xiao Heng was planning to compromise first.

As long as a prince appears in the harem, maybe the legend of the sharks will be temporarily suppressed. No matter who it is for, Shen Lian cannot accept that Xiao Heng will be with another woman again. Shen Lian's idea is very simple. Before he was with her, she wouldn't care if he had other people around him; but if he was with her, she wouldn't allow him to have other women.

Otherwise, she would rather leave than agree.

She stood aside invisibly, staring at Xiao Heng and the concubine. However, after a while, Xiao Heng just looked down at her. The two seemed to be whispering, but they never pushed her away. Shen Lian turned around and left in disappointment. She had no intention of showing up in front of them. If she appeared suddenly, wouldn't it be true for the rumors?

Moreover, she felt very uncomfortable at the moment, so it was better to leave first. Just like that, Shen Lian turned around and returned to her bedroom. She wanted to see if Xiao Heng came to see her in the evening. Talk about the day's events.

That night, Shen Lian had dinner alone, and then sat quietly at the table waiting for his arrival. He had said before that he would come, so Shen Lian was waiting for him. About half an hour passed. After that, Xiao Heng appeared. As soon as he came in, Shen Lian drove away the others, leaving only the two of them in the inner hall.

"Aheng, do you have something to tell me?"

Shen Lian was deliberately testing him and paving the way for him. However, Xiao Heng just came to sit next to her with a smile. He reached out and held her hand, "It's nothing."

Later, Shen Lian repeatedly tried to test him with words or made insinuations about him. However, Xiao Heng was always perfunctory. In short, Shen Lian couldn't ask anything. It seemed that Xiao Heng didn't intend to tell her anything. He had other reasons or arrangements, but he felt guilty. Shen Lian stared at him with a pair of eyes.

"Have any of the ladies in the harem come to see you recently?" What she said was already obvious.

Xiao Heng's expression froze, and then he said: "An'er, what's wrong with you? Why do you keep asking these questions?" Obviously, he was also aware of her previous testing and insinuations.

Shen Lian's expression was indifferent, seemingly unconcerned, but in fact, his eyes never moved away from his face for a moment. "Aheng, I hope you answer my question truthfully. Have they really not come to see you? "
