Chapter 84 I just want him to be safe
On the contrary, because he cannot see, his psychological perception and even hearing are stronger than those of people with normal eyes.
"If I tell you that I have a way to heal your eyes, will you want the treatment?"
After considering it for a while, Chu Shiheng stared at Chu Shixiang and asked in a deep voice.
He had thought deeply before asking this question.
On the way back, he kept wondering whether he should take this road?
Or in other words, does he have the ability to protect both mother and son?
When Chu Shixiang heard this, he was stunned. An expression of surprise flashed across his face, but soon turned into melancholy.
"He doesn't need treatment, which is good enough. Besides, how easy is it to cure his eyes?"
Sure enough, before Chu Shixiang could say anything, he was stopped by Concubine Yu who came in from outside.
When Chu Shiheng saw Concubine Yu coming in with a sad face, he suddenly understood the bitterness of her being a mother.
"Mother..." Chu Shixiang stood up immediately, but swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Chu Shixiang understood what Chu Shiheng meant, and he was very willing in his heart.
But at the same time, he also knew that it was because of his mediocrity over the years.
If his eye disease recovered suddenly, he would be easily ambushed because he would have no ability to protect himself.
It doesn't matter if he himself is in danger, it is very likely that his mother will be implicated as a result.
"Empress Yu..." Yu Mengqing called softly.
In fact, she was in the bedroom, and after thinking about it for a long time, she finally decided not to sleep.
She knew that Chu Shiheng was definitely waiting for this mother and son.
So when she heard Chu Shixiang's voice, Yu Mengqing no longer planned to sleep.
"Mengqing, are you awake? Did you sleep well last night?" Concubine Yu asked lovingly.
The mother and son have not heard about what happened last night yet.
However, Yu Mengqing was certain that the news would have spread throughout the entire palace before breakfast.
Although the palace is big, there are many people and many gossips, not to mention that Chu Shiwei had no intention of hiding it.
Even if they wanted to keep it a secret, it wouldn't last more than half a day, because many people already knew about it last night.
As the saying goes, truth will come out sooner or later. There is no wall that is completely airtight in this world.
Besides, the wall has been leaking for a long time.
"I went out for something last night and just came back." Yu Mengqing told the truth.
Upon hearing this, Concubine Yu immediately raised her head and looked at Chu Shiheng and Yu Mengqing.
But after meeting the two people's expectant gazes, Concubine Yu lowered her head again, smiled miserably, and said:
"I know what you mean, I understand everything, but you also understand our situation. If I had a choice, I would just like to live peacefully with Shixiang."
"Empress Yu, please forgive Meng Qing for being blunt. When you made this decision, did you ask your cousin what he really thought?"
"Perhaps you're doing this for his own good, but men have ambitions and he might have his own ideas. Everyone has to die, and some are as light as a feather, while others are as heavy as Mount Tai. It all depends on what kind of life you want to lead."
"You like a simple life, but as early as when you entered this deep palace, you were destined not to have a simple life."
Just now when Chu Shiheng was asking Chu Shixiang, Yu Mengqing was standing not far away, and she did not miss any expression on Chu Shixiang's face.
It was also at that moment that Yu Mengqing decided that no matter what the future held, she would cure her eyes.
She didn't know why Concubine Yu became Chu Murong's woman.
But since she chose this path, she has to pay a certain price for her choice.
Upon hearing Yu Mengqing's words, Concubine Yu was stunned.
Of course she understood what Yu Mengqing meant. She was telling herself that she should respect Shixiang.
"I know I'm selfish, but I just want him to live in peace. Is that wrong?" Concubine Yu asked with red eyes.
Seeing that the two still didn't understand, Concubine Yu continued:
"When Shixiang was born, I was happier than anyone else because I gave birth to a prince. This meant I had a guarantee in the harem."
"But things went against my wishes. As Shixiang grew up, his intelligence and kindness gradually began to be exposed to everyone. I had no power or influence, and I lived every day in fear and trepidation."
"Beware of this and that. It's like saying there's a wolf in front and a tiger behind. It's just like that. After Shixiang was poisoned for the first time, I started watching him closely. But even so, he got poisoned more and more frequently, and it was impossible to guard against him at all."
"In the end, his eyes were poisoned. It was then that I felt deeply that this was a good thing. He could grow up peacefully and I wouldn't have to worry about him anymore.
"At that time, I didn't feel unfortunate. On the contrary, I felt it was a kind of luck. It was the hope God gave me. At least Shixiang was able to save his life."
"So, even though he has lost his eyes, as long as he is still alive, we, mother and son, will be content."
"I never thought about fighting for anything. I'm just a humble mother who just wants my sons to be safe. Is there anything wrong with that?"
After saying this, Concubine Yu's face was already covered with tears.
"Mom, I don't want to be treated anymore. I don't want to be treated anymore. I will listen to you and live like this." Chu Shixiang hurriedly comforted her.
That being said, the hope on Chu Shixiang's face was clearly visible even to Yu Mengqing, an outsider.
At this time, she actually agreed with Concubine Yu's words. She was indeed a selfish mother.
She turned her head to see Chu Shiheng, and sure enough, she saw helplessness on his face.
"Empress Yu, Mengqing has something to say, but she doesn't know whether she should say it or not." After thinking about it, Yu Mengqing still didn't give up.
In fact, it was not only Chu Shiheng who had such thoughts today, she also had them.
Last night, when Yu Mengqing knew that Chu Shiwei and Yu Mengqiu were together, she had the same idea as Chu Shiheng.
But she is a woman after all, and these words are not appropriate coming from her.
Most importantly, there was no suitable prince in the palace.
After much thought, the blind Chu Shixiang is the most suitable person.
Seeing the worry in Concubine Yu's eyes, Yu Mengqing did not wait for Concubine Yu's reply and said to the guards and maids on both sides:
"You guys go down first!"
The guards and maids looked at Concubine Yu, and when they saw her nod at them, they retreated respectfully.
After everyone had gone down, everyone looked at Yu Mengqing.
Especially Chu Shiheng, he was very curious about what method Yu Mengqing would come up with to kill two birds with one stone.
"Empress Yu, I just took a closer look at Shixiang's eyes and found that he just looked dull. Plus, he rarely goes out on weekdays."
