The emperor looked at Mo Xiao seriously and said slowly: "Have you ever hated me in all these years?"

Mo Xiao paused: "What did your father say?"

"Because of the Lin family's affairs," the emperor added slowly, "you were close to the Lin family back then. After the Lin family's incident, your temperament changed drastically. Since then, you have not been very close to me."

For so many years, the emperor allowed his legitimate son to play outside and did not have much contact with him. This was partly due to this reason.

Every time he faced Mo Xiao, the emperor could think of the long-dead Lin family. From Mo Xiao's crystal clear eyes, he always seemed to see an ugly version of himself.

Therefore, he kept a polite distance from Mo Xiao for so many years.

But now, he had to face this problem squarely.

Because this may be the only son who can take the lead. But if this son is full of resentment towards him, then he doesn't mind destroying him. At least, he still has a little time, and he still has a chance to cultivate a usable son again.

Mo Xiao was silent for a moment, and then knelt down in front of the emperor uprightly.

"What happened to the Lin family back then had a great impact on me, and I was somewhat alienated from my father because of it."

The emperor's eyes turned cold and he looked at Mo Xiao intently.

Mo Xiao took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "But that's not because of my father, but because of myself."

The emperor was stunned for a moment and looked at him with some confusion.

Mo Xiao lowered his head and said quickly: "I hate that I don't understand people well enough to be friends with rebels like the Lin family, and even more hate that I am stupid enough to accept a traitor like Lin Tianyang as my master. I was alienated back then Even my father has no face to face him."

The emperor's frown slowly relaxed and he looked straight at Mo Xiao: "Do you really think so?"

Mo Xiao raised his head and met the emperor's eyes: "I really hate myself."

I hated myself for being incompetent, and I hated that I was not strong enough at that time, so I could only watch the Lin family die without being able to save anyone.

The emperor looked at him and saw the magnanimity in his eyes, and gradually let down his guard.

He sighed and stretched out his hand to pull Mo Xiao up from the ground: "I'm really pleased that you think so."

"Do they all think that I don't know? After so many years, there are still people who mention the Lin family and ridicule me overtly and covertly, saying that I don't distinguish between loyal and traitorous people, and that I harm the good and the good..."

The emperor gritted his teeth, with a hint of trembling in his tone, and said slowly: "But, how could they think of my difficulties? Lin Tianyang is self-respecting. If he is not eliminated, I will be the one who will destroy my family in the future!"

Mo Xiao lowered his head, and the hands hidden in his sleeves clenched tightly into fists.

Even now, the emperor can still confuse right and wrong... He has been living in this lie weaved for himself for so many years. As time goes by, he feels that this is implemented.

Mo Xiao took a deep breath and said softly: "Father did nothing wrong. If you don't kill him, he will kill you."

The emperor looked at Mo Xiao happily, reached out and patted his shoulder, his face full of approval.

There is nothing that they and their father and son have figured out the most.

He was deeply comforted by such a capable and caring son.

He coughed twice and said slowly: "You are very sensible, and all my sons must be sensible."

"At the same time, you are more capable than them all."
