Chapter 157 Promise Him
Quan Minghe could only clench his fists until his knuckles turned white, and suppress his urge to snatch her away.
After Ye Jinshu walked some distance away, Quan Minghe turned around and stared at their backs as they walked away.
Did he do something wrong?
Isn't everything he did for her own good?
Quan Minghe has always been conceited.
He has always believed in his ability to control everything.
I thought that under my own arrangements, she would not realize the cruel truth. I thought that even if the child was gone, she would only be sad for a while, and after she recovered, they would have a second child in the future.
By then, all the sadness and sorrow will disappear.
As for Zhao Qizi, he was a man with bad intentions and was harboring evil intentions around her.
It was just because she had just learned the truth that the child was killed by herself, so no matter what he said, she would not believe it.
Even if the evidence was right in front of her, she would just think he was lying.
Therefore, he wanted to get rid of Zhao Qizi secretly to prevent Zhao Qizi from saying something divisive in front of her and making the situation even more difficult to handle.
But who could have imagined that these two things, which he originally thought were firmly under his control, were exposed by accident.
As a result, the words spoken by him as an emperor no longer had any credibility in her heart.
Kwon Myung Hyuk never doubted the decisions he made, and never felt that he could do anything wrong.
But now he actually began to doubt himself...
Zhao Cong watched His Majesty standing quietly at the side. No one could tell what he was thinking from his dark eyes.
But Zhao Cong knew his majesty's mood at the moment. He must have fallen to the bottom and was in an extremely bad state.
Why.
At least after the death of Miss Shen, no other woman has ever made His Majesty look so painful.
After a long time, Quan Minghe spoke, his voice revealing a trace of fatigue: "Concubine Shen has returned to her parents' home to recuperate. I remember that there are not many maids and guards in the Shen Mansion. You go and make arrangements for Concubine Shen."
“If Concubine Shen feels unwell or encounters any accidents outside the palace, you are the only one to be held accountable.”
“Yes.”
Zhao Cong did not dare to slack off. Concubine Shen had just committed suicide in front of His Majesty. If Concubine Shen died outside the palace, he could not even imagine what punishment he would receive.
After Ye Jinshu carried Shen Yuning for a while, his subordinates brought over a carriage.
The carriage looked quite exquisite, with its curtains swaying gently in the wind.
Ye Jinshu carried Shen Yuning into the carriage. Shen Yuning's emotions calmed down a little at this moment.
She moved her body and tried to get off Ye Jinshu's legs, but Ye Jinshu held her waist tightly.
The force was neither light nor heavy, but it made her unable to move, and she could only stay in his arms helplessly.
Shen Yuning's eyes were still red, as if dyed by the sunset glow in the sky.
She opened her mouth and said in a light voice: "Aren't you afraid of His Majesty?"
Ye Jinshu did not answer her immediately, but just stared at her face.
At this moment, she was completely different from her previous charming and bright appearance. Her face now revealed a strong sense of brokenness, as if a piece of originally exquisite porcelain had been severely broken into pieces and then barely pieced together.
It made his heart ache.
How many things had she experienced in Beijing that could have made her so desperate that she committed suicide?
When he thought of this, Ye Jinshu felt as if his throat was blocked by something, and he felt very uncomfortable.
Ye Jinshu said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty will not know."
He has done many risky things, whether it is the strategies he used on the battlefield or the various trade-offs in life.
But there are rewards only when there are risks. In life, we should always fight for something for ourselves.
Seeing Shen Yuning's worried look, his heart softened and he changed the subject: "Aunt and uncle miss you very much. If they knew that their only daughter almost died in Ganjing, do you know how sad they would be?"
Shen Yuning said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I just feel very uncomfortable. I thought that he at least liked me a little, but in the end I was overthinking. I have been a chess piece of the emperor from the beginning to the end."
"But why could he be so cruel as to kill my child?"
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes again.
I can't suppress the sad feeling.
"I really can't continue to put on a brave face in front of my enemy in the harem. He is the emperor and has supreme power. I can do nothing in front of him and can only let him control me."
The days in the deep palace were like a cage, trapping her tightly and making it hard for her to breathe.
Ye Jinshu hugged her tighter, his tone firm and serious: "As long as you want to leave the palace, I will always find a way for you."
Shen Yuning smiled bitterly and shook her head, "He is the emperor, how can I leave the palace alive?"
“Nothing is impossible.”
Ye Jinshu, however, looked at her seriously, with burning eyes.
"Since His Majesty was able to steal something for you and let you enter the palace, I can also find a way to make you fake your death and leave the palace. Then, when the time comes, we can be together again under the vast sky and sea."
"From now on, no one in the world will know that you are His Majesty's Concubine Shen, they will only know that you are Ye Jinshu's wife."
He looked down at her, his eyes bloodshot and filled with heartache.
I feel sorry for everything she has gone through in Ganjing, and I feel sorry for the once bright and charming woman who now wants to die.
"Do you know how long I have been looking forward to hearing you call Madam Ye?"
Shen Yuning was touched by his deep affection and could no longer hold back her tears.
The emotions that had been suppressed for a long time were finally completely released at this moment.
"I was married to the Prince of Lingyang before, and now I am your majesty's imperial concubine. You can obviously choose a woman with a clean background, why are you obsessed with me?"
Shen Yuning sobbed.
Ye Jinshu wiped the tears from her cheeks, his eyes gentle yet firm.
"No reason."
Loving someone is not a choice made after weighing the pros and cons. If you have to weigh them, then it is not true love.
His love for her was the heart-pounding feeling they had when they first met, as well as the mutual understanding and appreciation they had gained after spending several years together. So why would he care about those external things?
Ye Jinshu's father is the adopted son of the Ye family, and his mother is the daughter of the Moyang Lin family. In terms of status, she is the daughter of the Ye family's legitimate daughter, so in terms of the Ye family's status, he is not worthy of her.
If we talk about the wealth of the Lin family who are engaged in business, businessmen are inferior to others and are not worthy of her status.
It was for this reason that he resolutely gave up business and joined the army, hoping to make a name for himself and be worthy of her.
But I didn't expect that this turn would lead to a lifetime of missed opportunities.
"Now that you are outside the palace, if you don't want to return to the palace, I will find a way for you to leave Qianjing, okay?"
His voice was soft, but it revealed a hint of nervousness. He was waiting for her answer, and his heart was in his throat.
Shen Yuning raised her head slightly, looked into his affectionate eyes, and felt touched.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded: "Okay."
That one word seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight, allowing Ye Jinshu to see hope and the possibilities for their future.
A happy smile suddenly appeared on his face.
The last time he left Ganjing, he only vaguely felt that she still loved him in her heart.
But today, she personally agreed to leave with him, which showed that she really still loved him. How could he not be happy with this kind of thought?
Ye Jinshu rested his forehead against hers, their noses touched lightly, and their breaths intertwined.
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous and warm.
Ye Jinshu's clear eyes were filled with emotions that seemed to drown her completely.
Shen Yuning looked at him for a while, and felt her face getting hot. She closed her eyes, revealing a long-lost shyness of a girl, which was very touching.
Then, she felt soft lips kissing her forehead.
The touch was light, but it was like a feather brushing against her heart, causing her heart to tremble slightly.
