In the visiting room of the prison, full surveillance is inevitable, but unless it involves a crime, it is generally kept confidential. The place where Shang Lu rescued Zhu Jin was a special place, which was a surveillance area, so it was normal to be photographed.
Neither Zhu Jin nor Shang Lu could have imagined that such a video could be hacked and cleverly edited and combined into a video like that.
After Shang Lu's soul left his body, his memories and emotions of his previous life also disappeared. Shang Lu retained all the memories of this life, but forgot all the past with Zhu Jin the moment he woke up. If he had not watched the video, he would never have remembered these past events in his life.
This was something he had experienced in his memory, but Shanglu himself was confused and couldn't explain it clearly.
Shanglu could not deny that everything in the video was fake, and he could not defend himself, but asking him to admit it was more painful than killing him.
In the end, there was only silence in 'Shanglu'.
After venting his anger, Helian Zhen looked at the silent Shang Lu and suddenly felt melancholy. Without his irritating smile and aggressive attitude, he took a deep breath and finally couldn't help showing a vulnerable look.
"No matter how difficult it was before, no matter how isolated and helpless I was, I just thought that it would be fine. I endured it bit by bit because you were always by my side." As long as 'Shanglu' was by her side, she was never afraid, because she knew that the only person in the world who would always be by her side was 'Shanglu'.
"From dad to mom, one after another... I am sad, but I am not desperate, because I still have you. I think, I can get what I want and be with you..."
Helian Zhen looked at Shanglu with tears in his eyes, "But what about you? What did you do?"
"The whole world can like her, everyone in the world can be partial to her and love her, but you can't."
"You are my only Helian Zhen's. You belong to me, Helian Zhen, and only me since childhood."
"But in the end, in the end...even you are like this..."
Even Shang Lu is like this, what else does she have to worry about in this world? Since she is crazy, she will be completely crazy.
Shanglu felt heartbroken when he saw Helian Zhen crying till the end.
He never thought that they would end up like this, hurting each other, and in the end only the pain would prove their past.
They hurt each other, until they were covered in blood and wounds, but they didn't know that there was someone who was watching them and was more seriously hurt than both of them.
Shang Lu has gone from being furious to being numb these days, and now he is dying. His floating shadow is becoming more and more transparent and dim, as if he will disappear in the next second.
But it seemed that he couldn't disappear, couldn't fall asleep, and even couldn't escape. He just watched it all.
His wife for two lifetimes...
They, for whom he had placed infinite hope, had come to the end.
After he had finally prepared himself mentally, he thought that it was always good for the two of them to be together, which was better than him really leaving the world and leaving Helian Zhen sad, and finally finding someone else to marry and have children.
Because of Zhu Jin's words, he has been feeling suffocated in his heart. He wants Shang Lu and Helian Zhen to grow old together and does not want to repeat the fate between him and Zhu Jin in his previous life.
Although he had been acting strong all along and knew in his heart that he was right in his previous life, if he really died in this life, Helian Zhen would have to find another person to marry and have children with. However, he found it so difficult to accept that Shang Lu and Helian Zhen were together, let alone other people.
In the end, he might hate Helian Zhen just like Zhu Jin. He didn't want to go down this path, because he didn't want to become a completely heartless person, who had failed Zhu Jin in his previous life and had no face to face Zhu Jin in this life.
He had been working hard with this mentality, and he could never have imagined that things would come to this point.
Helian Zhen cheated on his wife, and the child he lost with such heart-wrenching pain was someone else's. Everything he and Zhu Jin had in the past turned out to be the last straw that led to their divorce.
Shang Lu now just wants to die, but he can't die. He has to watch all this happen with no end.
He finally slowly began to understand the pain that Zhu Jin had experienced back then. It was just the tip of the iceberg, but the pain was so severe that he could hardly bear it.
Helian Zhen and Shang Lu, who were being watched by Shang Lu, were completely unaware of his existence. After calming down, Helian Zhen simply changed her clothes and left home with the wound on her neck. After this meeting, she and Shang Lu had a complete farewell. She would never return to this home again.
The guards waiting outside were shocked to see the wound on Helian Zhen's neck and wanted to send her back to the palace for treatment immediately, but Helian Zhen stopped them and insisted on going to see the person first.
The person she met was Zhu Jin.
Zhu Jin looked at Helian Zhen outside the door, surprised and stunned.
Helian Lan had seen Helian Zhen before she fell ill. Although there was no evidence to prove what she had done, and it was too horrible to say that Helian Zhen had killed her mother, Zhu Jin could not let it go when looking at Helian Zhen now, not to mention the accidental death of the staff who were at work when Helian Lan fell ill.
Zhu Jin had always turned a blind eye to Helian Zhen. She had not even spoken a word to Helian Zhen during the days of Helian Lan's funeral. She did so because, firstly, she did not want to care about Helian Zhen, and secondly, she was waiting for accurate news to decide her attitude towards Helian Zhen in the future.
If Helian Lan's death had nothing to do with her directly, and she knew that Helian Lan didn't care about her, she would just prevent her from becoming a true queen. Anyway, this way, it didn't conflict with her plan.
If Helian Lan's death had anything to do with her, no matter if it was a direct or indirect relationship, she would settle the accounts one by one, whether it was paying with her life or taking away everything she had.
Thinking this way, Zhu Jin's attitude towards Helian Zhen was the same as before. Seeing that she came to see her the day before the enthronement, which she valued more than her life, and discovering the wound on her neck, she finally decided to let her in and meet her in the yard.
"Sister." Helian Zhen was not surprised that Zhu Jin saw her in the yard. When she saw Zhu Jin coming out, she called her sister as usual.
"What's the matter?" Zhu Jin asked straight to the point.
"Can't you come to see your sister if you're okay? Is your leg better? Mom just passed away, and we sisters..." Helian Zhen had just gotten into the mood when she was interrupted by Zhu Jin's cold voice without hesitation.
"If you don't tell me directly what's going on, then just leave. We've come to this point. No matter how many times you call me sisters or how many caring words you say, nothing can change the situation. Don't waste time and don't say words like mother or sister." Zhu Jin interrupted without hesitation.
The conflict between them was already unavoidable, so why hide it?
"Sister is still the same as always." Helian Zhen smiled, lowered her head and slowly stroked the marks on her neck, then slowly raised her head with an inexplicable expression and spoke again, "Sister, do you know who pinched me? It was Shang Lu. He and I are getting a divorce tomorrow. I always feel sick looking at him..."
As she spoke, her eyes fell on Zhu Jin's face, not wanting to miss any expression on her face.
Unfortunately, she didn't see what she expected to see, but only impatience and a hint of surprise. The next time he spoke, he was still asking her what's the matter.
"Sister is really..." Helian Zhen didn't know how to describe her feelings for a moment.
"Since you don't tell me, I'll go in." Zhu Jin couldn't help shaking her head. To be honest, she couldn't help but be surprised when she saw the news in the email. When she first met Helian Zhen, she was still a virgin, but when she saw her again, she found that she was not. In such an environment, she felt strange that Shang Lu and she were intimate before marriage, but she was not surprised at all that she was pregnant.
But he didn't expect that the child was not Shang Lu's.
Zhu Jin was stunned for a moment when she saw the news in the email, but when she heard about the bruises on her neck and that they were going to divorce, apart from being a little surprised, she didn't feel strange.
It was both unexpected and natural that they had come to this point, and she didn't care.
"I want to hold tomorrow's coronation ceremony in the Ancient City Palace. I would like to ask my sister to say hello to Qu Shao. Holding it in the Ancient City Palace can improve the image of our royal family to a certain extent." Helian Zhen was forced to speak quickly by Zhu Jin. "Qu Shao said that such important matters in the Ancient City are up to you. I hope my sister can seriously consider it."
The ancient city was built a short time ago and has been open even shorter, but because of the revival of ancient culture, it has long become a symbol of the Blue Water Planet, and its status has been rising, attracting many aliens to visit and travel, including some big names. They came to the Blue Water Planet and the ancient city, which has influenced and driven tourism on the entire planet.
In 3702 AD, the number of tourists to the entire Blue Water Planet increased by nearly 30% compared with previous years. Needless to say, the economic development driven by this has increased, and the most important thing is that the status of Blue Water Planet in the interstellar space has been enhanced.
Many people know the status and importance of the ancient city as long as they think about it carefully. Many people have also set their sights on the ancient city, not to mention the palace, the most important part of the ancient city. It is understandable that Helian Zhen is interested in the palace in the ancient city.
In previous situations like this, Qu Shao, who had become more and more upright and had a completely different status and position than before, could handle the rejection. But this time, facing the pressure from Helian Zhen and the power behind her, Qu Shao could only take a roundabout approach and push the matter to Zhu Jin.
The ancient city belongs to the Blue Water Star and is not Zhu Jin's private property, but Zhu Jin has more say than anyone else, and Qu Shao did nothing wrong.
Helian Zhen has been planning to seize the ancient city palace for a long time. She has used all the strength she could in the past two days, but still failed to take it down in the end. Time is running out, so she had no choice but to find Zhu Jin.
"The ancient city palace...it's a good idea, but it's impossible." Zhu Jin showed a hint of sarcasm on her face. It was a good idea. She wanted to improve her image through the ancient city palace.
"Why not?" Helian Zhen took a deep breath and asked back after hearing the expected answer.
"Because... your coronation ceremony is not qualified enough. The imperial palace in the ancient city cannot be borrowed and used casually." Zhu Jin answered in a rare good temper.
Actually saying that you are not qualified... A flash of anger flashed across Helian Zhen's eyes, and he would not be polite if he continued speaking. "Sister, I hope you will think it over before answering."
"…Is this something that needs to be considered?" Zhu Jin shook his head and laughed. This threat…
Zhu Jin felt helpless no matter what time it was when facing Helian Zhen. "Since you've said this, I'll say this to you as well. If you think it through and are not afraid of any consequences when you go back, then find a way to fight to the death. I'm kindly reminding you in advance that the net is very strong. Don't blame me if you can't break the net and get yourself killed."
After Zhu Jin finished speaking, he went into the house, leaving Helian Zhen, with a stiff face, to be politely asked to leave by his aunt.
Zhu Jin returned to the house and thought, it's really bad that threats have become commonplace.
I finally got a new life, but if I live a life that is too frustrating, there is no point. I should not be afraid of any threats in the future...
