“I want to prove to you that I am not as despicable as you think. Although having designs on you is a grave taboo, my feelings for you are genuine. This genuine affection cannot be given to any other woman. Even if I get married, I will never touch her; I will only give her the respect due to a wife.”
Seeing that Jiang Tian seemed to have something to say, Shen Yan smiled again: "I know you're afraid I'll ruin other women. I can only say that unless something unexpected happens, I won't get married."
"Even if I do marry in the future, the woman will definitely be willing, and I will never let her suffer. As for the children, I will just adopt one."
In fact, there are many women who would gladly accept the title of Lady of the Duke's Mansion, even if it is only in name.
In this world, life is really too difficult for women.
Countless women suffered various forms of oppression, dying in despair before reaching a peaceful old age.
If Shen Yan were to marry a woman, he would definitely protect her and not let her be harmed by anyone else.
Jiang Tian looked at him for a long time before finally saying, "I believe in you, Your Highness. You will definitely become a respectable person in the future."
Shen Yan smiled again and said only one sentence: "That's enough."
For the two of them, it's enough that their relationship has reached this point and they've been able to talk about it this way.
Trust him, and it will be better than a thousand words.
Their journey can only go this far.
Shen Yan took a deep breath and finally started talking about Xiao Linghan.
"He is clean. I am good friends with him and know a lot about him. He is not as simple and cowardly as he seems on the surface. However, when disaster strikes, the corruption of the Xiao family cannot be solved by him alone. Moreover, those are his elders and relatives, who are good at using ethics to pressure people."
"He had always planned to deal with the Xiao family, and perhaps he would have succeeded if this incident hadn't happened. However, there are too many things in this world that cannot be helped. He was a step too late, and before he could even make a move, the Xiao family was raided."
“Now that he’s in jail, if you can save him, he will definitely repay your kindness. He’s the kind of person who values favors greatly. Don’t worry, he will be loyal to you for the rest of his life.”
Since he knew it was impossible for them, Shen Yan made his point very clear.
If his friend could take good care of Jiang Tian, he would feel much more at ease.
"Okay, then I'll try to help him out and see if I can get him out of trouble. Thank you for today."
"You're welcome."
Shen Yan glanced at her again, as if trying to see her into his heart.
He took a deep breath and smiled, "Then I'll be going now."
"good."
Shen Yan walked out, knowing that perhaps the two of them would never see each other again in this lifetime.
But he could only leave.
He has to move forward.
Inside the palace.
The emperor, who should have been reviewing memorials, was now entwined with the woman he loved.
Perhaps knowing their time was running out, Liu Jue became more and more cunning each time.
He was the one who was complaining about being tired, yet he seemed to enjoy spending more and more time on such things.
According to his logic, the more tired you are, the more you should exercise, and maybe you won't feel tired anymore in the future.
This time is no exception.
In the end, Jiang Tian's voice became weak.
Liu Jue's forehead was covered in sweat, and even his hair was wet.
Even her flawless, ethereal face, as pure as jade, now carried a hint of desire.
Once everything was over, the two finally had a chance to speak.
Jiang Tian took a long time to catch her breath before speaking in a hoarse voice, "Your Majesty, I want to ask you for someone."
