Qin Zheng had to think so, and he began to test the other party: "Mingyue, after you come with me, we will go to Xinzhou. There will be a very tall and big pine tree at my home in Xinzhou..."
"Stop talking!" Shi Mingyue covered her ears in disgust. It was a nightmare. She didn't want to go back to that kind of life!
Seeing her reaction, Qin Zheng was certain that Shi Mingyue had been reborn, just like him. After her past life, how could she possibly forgive him? He couldn't help but sigh, "I know! I'm sorry, Mingyue, I'm sorry. But now we're back to our youth, and we can start over. This time, I won't let you get hurt."
Shi Mingyue looked up in shock, thinking she had misheard: "You, you too?"
Qin Zheng understood what she was asking, and he nodded: "I am."
Shi Mingyue suddenly found this ridiculous. What was God trying to do? Was he trying to make fun of her? She stared at Qin Zheng, her voice suddenly cold. "If that's the case, how dare you come to me? Do you think I'll forgive you?"
Ever since Tang Nuan came into his family, he rarely visited her in his room, often citing his busy military duties as a reason to visit her. Later, when Tang Nuan became pregnant, he still considered her a pitiful orphan. Even though he was already frail, he still cared for her health all day long. He would do his best to satisfy her cravings for food and drink. Later, Tang Nuan's true nature finally revealed itself, taking everything from her jewelry to her clothes and everything else... Qin Zheng saw it all, but said nothing.
Qin Zheng shook his head. "I know you can't forgive me. I'm sorry, but we can start over. I won't let you get hurt again. Believe me." He was too cowardly back then. After Mingyue was injured by the spy, he was afraid to see her sick and weak. If he saw her, he would feel extremely guilty and blame himself for not protecting Mingyue. So he could only escape...
Shi Mingyue looked at the man in front of her, the only words in her mind were "not worth it". How could he do such a cruel thing to her, and still ask for a rematch? She sneered: "Where is Tang Nuan? What happened to Tang Nuan after I died?"
"...Tang Nuan, she's gone." Qin Zheng couldn't bring himself to say it. He'd only discovered Tang Nuan's identity as a spy later, and after questioning her, she'd confessed, even saying she'd admitted it before Shi Mingyue died. And for Zilong's sake, he couldn't bring himself to attack her, so he let her go.
"You already know that Tang Nuan is the spy, right? But you didn't help me and my unborn child get revenge, so how dare you say you can start over and ask me to trust you? Go away, I will never forgive you."
Shi Mingyue pointed at the door and closed her eyes deeply. She felt it was ridiculous in her heart. It was obvious that God was playing a trick on her.
Seeing her resolute expression, Qin Zheng knew that rekindling their old dreams was impossible, so it would be a good idea for her to marry the eldest prince. He said, "I will leave. By the way, not long after your death, the capital changed drastically. Fu Yueli is not blind, he was just pretending. Mingyue, I sincerely hope you can be happy."
Shi Mingyue looked at him strangely, but Qin Zheng had already walked out the door. He had just said that Fu Yueli was not blind. Wasn't Fu Yueli the eldest prince? He was pretending to be blind? This was too absurd.
The next morning, when Shi Mingyue arrived at the dining room, she discovered that her parents and brother were all there. The three of them were in a daze, and the atmosphere was somewhat heavy. But when they saw her, they were all startled.
"Yue'er, what's wrong with you?" Mrs. Shi was in disbelief. Her daughter should have left last night.
Shi Mingyue was confused at first, but suddenly understood after hearing her mother's question. Did they know that she was going to elope with Qin Zheng last night?
"What's wrong with me?" Shi Mingyue pretended not to know and asked tentatively.
Shi Yuanshan stood up: "Didn't Qin Zheng come here last night? You didn't leave with him?"
Sure enough, they knew! Shi Mingyue thought to herself, no wonder her elopement went so smoothly in her previous life; it turned out her parents and brothers knew everything. She couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "How can a daughter be so selfish? If I just leave like this, there's no guarantee that His Majesty won't punish me, so I won't leave."
Shi Yuanshan and his wife looked at each other and sighed. Their daughter had grown up. Shi Mingji couldn't help but ask, "Qin Zheng is a good man. If you don't go with him, do you really want to marry the eldest prince?"
Shi Mingyue knew that her brother was doing this for her own good. Although she wanted to refute what he said about being a good man, she could only nod and answer, "Yes, I want to marry the eldest prince."
Shi Mingji wanted to say something, but was stopped by Shi Yuanshan: "No need to say more, since Yue'er has made the decision, let it be."
The family fell silent, ate in silence, and tacitly agreed not to mention the matter again.
A few days later, the wedding took place.
Unlike her previous life, this time her family was with her. Early in the morning, Mrs. Shi came to help Shi Mingyue dress up, and Shi Mingyue also put on her bright red wedding dress.
She boarded the bridal sedan and headed straight for Prince Ling's mansion. The eldest prince, Fu Yueli, was crowned Prince Ling upon reaching adulthood, but he was only given the title of Prince. Since he couldn't see, what else could he do?
But Shi Mingyue couldn't help but remember Qin Zheng's words. Was Fu Yueli feigning blindness? She recalled how the Second and Third Princes had fought openly and covertly for the throne in her previous life, a struggle that lasted until her death. So, was Fu Yueli feigning blindness out of fear that admitting his sight would entangle him in the turmoil of the succession struggle? After all, his mother was the deceased Empress Lu. If he hadn't been born blind, he would have been crown prince from birth.
She suspected this was a very likely reason. Qin Zheng had outlived her in his previous life, and he'd already revealed the dramatic changes in the capital, revealing that Fu Yueli had been feigning blindness. So, what had happened to the capital? And what had happened to Fu Yueli? Even if she didn't want to see Qin Zheng anymore, she had to find another opportunity to ask him about this.
