Chapter 314 Ending 2

"A Luo, remember when I killed someone for the first time in Fangling, you covered for me, and then you used my murder to send the thug named Gu who burned your family to jail. I knew that you were the wisest and most strategic. You took advantage of the situation and acted accordingly. You knew what to do to benefit yourself. Those people in the court really thought you were weak and could be bullied. Don't you think it's funny?"

Pei Luoshu asked softly.

"Eleven, I just want you to return to the palace as soon as possible."

Chen Shiyi nodded.

"I know."

Pei Luoshu took a deep breath.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll take you out."

He grabbed Chen Shiyi and was about to take her away, but was stopped by Chen Shiyi.

"A Luo, if you kill someone, you must pay for your life. The law is as strong as a mountain. You can't take mine away."

Pei Luoshu comforted her.

"Leave this to me. Don't worry. Go back and have a good rest."

Chen Shiyi shook his head.

"I promised to make a knife for you and kill Master Zhang. I have done everything now. This is also the last thing I will do for you. I don't want to go back to that house."

Pei Luoshu's face changed drastically and he looked at Chen Shiyi closely.

"I told you to leave this matter to me. Why don't you want to go back? You don't like going back to the mansion. Are you feeling bored? Then I can find you another place to live, or you can live in the palace directly."

Chen Shiyi said softly.

"A Luo, ever since Situ Yu's family was killed, I found that I didn't want to live anymore."

Pei Luoshu was very angry.

"What are you thinking about?"

Chen Shiyi said quietly.

"It was already winter when I returned from Fengming Mountain in autumn. You haven't come here many times in the past few months. You don't understand. I couldn't sleep for nights. As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw Ping'er's head being chopped off and rolling to my feet. Blood was everywhere, bright red. I kept comforting myself that I could save them and I didn't have to blame myself so much. I wanted to find something else to do. Then I started to cut leaves. Before you came, I cut a lot of them. Later, the leaves of the sycamore trees all fell off. There were no more leaves. I thought, I really want to have a child with you, but I can't. I am a woman who can't have children."

Pei Luoshu looked flustered and tried to comfort her incoherently.

"Eleven, wake up. No one will blame you. If you want to blame someone, blame me. I was the one who plotted to kill them. If anyone wants to kill me, come and kill me. It has nothing to do with you."

"A Luo, I can't have children. I have no help behind me. You can't leave my harem empty for me. The court officials won't allow it. How can an emperor without descendants stabilize his country?"

Pei Luoshu closed his eyes slightly.

"Didn't I say before that if we don't have any children, we can just pass on the inheritance. Don't mention this again in the future."

Chen Shiyi chuckled.

"Maybe, but what about five years later, ten years later? Whose sincerity can withstand the length of time? I have seen the inevitable ending, so I don't want to go on."

She raised her eyes and spoke seriously.

"A Luo, our journey ends here."

Pei Luoshu was stunned for a long time, then he chuckled.

"You fool, it's true that when you're alone you tend to worry about gains and losses, okay..."

Chen Shiyi said again.

"From the day I learned about your identity, I have been fantasizing that as long as we are in love, no difficulties will be a problem. Then, I was defeated by reality again and again. I kept persuading myself that it would be okay, it would be okay, and it would be fine. But it didn't work. It was almost there, but I couldn't take a step forward. I was too tired and couldn't hold on any longer."

Pei Luoshu hugged her tightly.

"Eleven, don't be like this. I have arranged everything. I am just waiting for you to be my queen."

"In the autumn of the first year of the reign of Emperor Yuqian, the emperor's wife died at the age of twenty-five."

After hearing this, Pei Luoshu felt indescribable sadness and pain in his heart.

"Eleven, we agreed that no matter what happens, you will never leave me."

"Not even death?"

"Yes, not even death."

Chen Shiyi lowered his eyes, showing no emotion.

"The prefect of Jingzhao is from the Zhang family. He will not watch me walk out of the prefectural prison safely."

Pei Luoshu said coldly.

"Then kill them all."

Yue Zhi's voice was heard outside the prison door.

"Your Majesty, it's time to go."

Pei Luo picked up Chen Shiyi and walked out of the prison, but Yue Zhi hurriedly stopped him.

"No, Your Majesty. All the court officials are watching. The Empress is not in danger of death now. It is right to take her away in a legitimate way. Otherwise, how will the history books describe you and the Empress? I hope Your Majesty will think twice."

Chen Shiyi looked at Pei Luoshu and also advised.

"You go first."

Pei Luoshu put her down, held her face, and stared at her closely.

"Don't think about those messy things. I'll tell you in detail later. Do you understand?"

"Eleven, speak."

Chen Shiyi nodded.

"I heard that."

Pei Luoshu walked forward a few steps, suddenly stopped, and turned around to look at Chen Shiyi.

Coincidentally, she was also looking at him.

calm.

Yue Zhi called again.

"His Majesty…"

Pei Luoshu turned around and left.

"Send someone to guard here. If anything happens to you again, I will chop off your head."

At the morning court, because the person who killed Grand Tutor Sun was one of His Majesty's men, the sensible Jingzhao Prefecture Governor should have considered it a private matter, but the current Jingzhao Prefecture Governor's surname was Zhang, so all the officials in the court knew about it.

The two sides were arguing fiercely over whether to release the hostages or not.

Pei Luoshu watched the people arguing below with an expressionless face, but his eyes under the crown were unusually unpeaceful.

He thought about it for a long time last night before he finally understood why Chen Shiyi wanted to leave him.

He put the cart before the horse. Once, he fought for the throne in order to give her peace of mind and freedom, but now, he spent all his energy on the throne and devoted more and more time to her, asking about her less and less. She had been very close to him for a few months after she came to Kyoto, but he had not been with her many times. The two of them were together less and more apart. In addition, she was even more uneasy about the matter of Situ Yu, in which she was involved.

I thought I had given her a home, but she left the palace again, drifting away. How could I make her feel at ease? No matter what, I had to bring her into the palace, and she would stop having wild thoughts.

Your Highness, a eunuch comes in to report.

"Marshal Lan of the Northwest wishes to see Your Majesty."

Inside the palace, all the court officials looked at each other.

The Lan Family Army in the Northwest cannot enter the capital without being summoned. Why is it like this today?

"Xuan."

Lan Qinghe, dressed in silver armor, strode into the Zichen Palace with great dignity. He wore a feather crown on his head and carried a sword on his body.

Military officers entering the palace must take off their armor, but Lan Qinghe's ability to wear a sword when entering the palace was a special honor bestowed upon him by his ancestors.

Lan Qinghe was in high spirits and bowed to Pei Luoshu in the hall.

"Your Majesty, I am coming to the capital today to exchange the tiger seal from the northwest for the life of Master Yun Cang."
