She felt really helpless. Why is it that every powerful and influential man is a fool at first?
She believed that even Shen Yi was the same, and that the original innocent woman was still their ideal woman.
But it seems there's one exception among the people she knows...
Stern words.
Shang Xian pursed his lips. Was he alright?
Dugu Qianchen suddenly felt awkward again: "Friends are friends, Xuan'er, don't overthink things anymore."
Yin Xuan'er snorted and pouted, "Xuan'er thought that a good man like Brother Chen would only marry one woman in his life, but I didn't expect him to be just like all those other men."
She said she was angry, pushed open the door, and ran away.
Dugu Qianchen reached out to grab her arm, but in the end he sighed, flicked his sleeve, and let go.
Shang Xian looked at Yin Xuan'er, who had disappeared through the doorway, and asked with curiosity, "Your Majesty, where did you find this wife?"
Dugu Qianchen fell into deep thought. Seeing that he didn't speak, Shang Xian sat down at the table without any politeness, poured herself a cup of tea and drank it. There were some snacks on the table. She wasn't afraid of gaining weight, and she had already lost a lot of weight when she was Ning Beiyao's wife during the last mission. It was necessary to eat it up.
When Dugu Qianchen came to his senses, he saw that she had already sat down and started eating snacks and drinking tea, so he sat down next to her.
“That’s the only person I haven’t killed,” Dugu Qianchen said, his eyes gleaming.
The only one he didn't kill? So this "white moonlight" (ideal love interest) is actually quite interesting.
"You should know that I ascended to this throne by stepping over the corpses of a bunch of brothers," Dugu Qianchen said calmly, having lost the ferocity he once possessed.
Shang Xian shook his head: "Doesn't seem like it."
"Things are different now. The country is peaceful and prosperous, and I have naturally lost the ruthlessness I once had."
So this is your reason for wanting to be in a relationship? Shang Xian was already starting to despise him.
"Your Majesty, let me just say this: as the emperor, you are not worthy of having feelings between ordinary men and women." She was telling the truth. You were born into an imperial family. Whether in times of chaos or prosperity, you are still the emperor. It is what an emperor should do to think of his people. If you fall in love with a woman, it means you have a weakness, which is something that a strong person should never have.
You need to be clear about what you should do based on your position!
Dugu Qianchen looked at her: "Why?"
In his eyes, he was already the most powerful person, and everything was under his control. Couldn't he even have a woman he loved?
She said calmly, "Because you are the emperor, you must be clear about your status, even in this prosperous age."
Shang Xian regretted it as soon as she finished speaking. She shouldn't have reminded Dugu Qianchen that her and Shen Yi's mission was to become an empress.
“Ning Jiu’er!” Dugu Qianchen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Shang Xian was truly helpless. She was having such a hard time. Dugu Qianchen was still the emperor, after all. Although he wasn't as ruthless as he used to be, he was still the decisive emperor.
It would only take a word for her to die, but how could she possibly let Dugu Qianchen kill her?
"Your Majesty, I'm having such a hard time. I'm telling you the truth, but you won't listen. One wrong step leads to another, and then we'll lose everything." Shang Xian had already said this much, but she knew that Dugu Qianchen still wouldn't listen.
A common problem among those in high positions is overconfidence.
Don't blame her for taking his throne then.
"Your Majesty, I'm leaving now. You should go and comfort that young lady." Shang Xian stood up, pushed open the door, and walked out.
She only realized after she went outside that she still hadn't asked Yin Xuan'er about her background!
