Zhao Junlian's expression suddenly became very calm. He looked at Zhao Yehua calmly and sighed lightly.
"Yehua, do you know what you should do most right now?"
"Sharing the state affairs for my father."
Zhao Yehua believed that he had done nothing wrong. Besides, everything he did was just the feelings he should have, so how could he be wrong?
"No, what you should do most is learn to hide your emotions and feelings.
If that woman becomes your weakness, what do you think will happen to Huanjun City? How will those people with evil intentions treat you?
You will definitely take my position in the future, so the decision you make now will affect your future life, do you understand? "
Zhao Jun's expression slowly fluctuated, and there seemed to be a voice in his eyes that could speak.
Is his heart also echoing with the feelings he once lost, or everything he gave up that has now become regret?
"Your Majesty...I don't want the throne. It would be great if I could live an ordinary life with the person I love. But she doesn't like me, so Your Majesty, you don't have to worry." Zhao Yehua slowly clenched his teeth and lowered his head heavily.
Zhao Junlian looked at Zhao Yehua's movements, without getting angry, but said in a calm tone:
"Yehua, being in the royal family means you have no control over your own affairs. Everything here will be a heavy burden on your shoulders.
If you are indecisive for a woman, and become depressed when she disappoints you, have you ever thought about the people of Huanjun City?
You don't belong to yourself, you belong to the people of Huanjun City, so you must learn to be ruthless."
These words made Zhao Yehua no longer know how to respond. The stone in his heart was broken, but the broken stones were spread all over his heart, making it full of holes.
However, he was unable to heal it, and had to let all the broken stones embed into his flesh, causing him pain over and over again.
"I know my mistake."
Zhao Yehua knelt on the ground with weak legs, his body limp and powerless, his head drooping, his eyes dull, and at this moment he looked like a body without a soul.
Zhao Junlian stopped talking, turned around and walked out of the hall, and with a wave of his hand, the hall door closed.
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
"Leave him alone."
Time passed quickly. The following year, Zhao Yehua was 22 years old. Zhao Junlian was in poor health and wanted to pass his throne to Zhao Yehua as soon as possible.
He then issued an imperial decree to grant the marriage, intending to betroth Qiu Fuer, the legitimate daughter of the Qiu family, to Zhao Yehua as his legitimate wife.
As soon as the imperial edict was issued, the Qiu family was happy, but Ye Hua was angry.
Zhao Yehua knelt in front of the temple, expressing his dissatisfaction. He had already made up his mind at the beginning. If he couldn't marry her in this life, then he wouldn't marry her. But if he forced a woman to be his first wife, how could he live with it?
Then Zhao Junlian had issued the imperial edict word for word, and there was no reason to take it back. All of this was engraved in Zhao Yehua's heart.
On the day of his wedding, he decided to rest alone in the study. He didn't even want to see what the eldest daughter of the Qiu family looked like. Even if she had a stunningly beautiful face, it could not replace Jing Yi in his heart.
Since his father didn't consider his feelings at all, he just followed his own ideas.
From now on, I will only sleep in the study, and since the wedding night, I have not been to Jinghong Palace once.
"Fu'er, I've made you suffer. I was young and impulsive back then, so I betrayed your deep affection for so many years."
