Huang Zijun was quite worried about her situation. When he heard that she was leaving Keren House, he came to visit her without saying a word.
"They did come to me. I also felt that the death of Butler Liu was extremely strange, but it had nothing to do with me..."
Kang Keren's face turned pale and she coughed violently a few times. Huang Zijun was so worried when he saw her like this that he didn't know what to do. He hurriedly walked over and helped her to sit at the table.
"Keren, if you don't want to continue to take over Keren House, then just tell the princess clearly. I believe you can now stand on your own." Huang Zijun looked at her with joy. Kang Keren looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. After a pause, she slowly moved her clear gaze to his face.
"You come to see me again and again, won't your husband be angry?"
Knowing that Kang Keren was talking about Shen Aojun, Huang Zijun's expression became a little solemn, and he revealed to her what he had been hiding in his heart, "To be honest, Aojun and I have been married for many years, but we have no feelings for each other at all. I believe the same is true for her. Now that Lord Shen's matter has happened, the gap between the two of us is even more difficult to make up, so I decided to divorce her."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Zijun sighed helplessly. His marriage with Shen Aojun was originally arranged by the Queen Mother. He did not dare to resist at the beginning. Now it has evolved to the current situation. It was all his fault that he was cowardly and did not dare to resist.
"Zijun, you must think this over carefully. There is no one around Miss Shen right now..." Kang Keren had a worried look on her face. She held his hand tightly, her eyes filled with pity and sympathy for Shen Aojun.
"I have thought it through very clearly. If we continue like this, neither of us will be happy. Besides, I want to marry you."
"What……"
Huang Zijun looked at her firmly, holding her hand with a little more force, "I'll say it again, I want to marry you."
"Zijun..." Kang Keren leaned directly on his shoulder in the warm atmosphere, making Huang Zijun think that she had changed her mind after all.
The next morning, Shen Aojun prepared to make some cakes herself and go visit Gu Yunru. After all, Gu Yunru had been running back and forth for her for so many days and she felt a little guilty. Before she went out, she saw Huang Zijun coming in aggressively and directly put a piece of yellow paper on the table.
"What are you doing?"
Shen Aojun picked up the piece of paper in confusion, and saw that it was actually a letter of divorce... Huang Zijun had been hanging around Keren House these days, and she didn't say anything, but she didn't expect that she wouldn't get even a little comfort.
"Huang Zijun, is this what you meant or what Miss Kang meant?"
Shen Aojun had heard some rumors to some extent. He often went to Keren House to have private meetings with Miss Kang. He had had some contact with her before, but he never thought that his worries would eventually become a reality.
But she naively thought that Zijun understood her heart.
Holding the divorce letter, she burst into tears. She couldn't hold back her emotions and yelled at him unwillingly, "Why do you treat me like this? I've never done anything to let you down!"
"It is because you have never done anything to let me down that I want to divorce you. You go your way and I go mine. There is no love between us and I don't want to drag you down any more."
Huang Zijun said this with such determination that it was obvious that he had practiced it many times. Shen Aojun was devastated and sat down on the chair. She didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and her hand holding the divorce letter kept shaking.
At the same time, Gu Yunru got off the carriage and went to the general's mansion to visit Ao Jun, but saw Huang Zijun coming out of the house with an indignant look on his face. She stood there in a daze, looked at Xiao Ye and others behind her, and shook her head helplessly.
This was the first time I saw General Huang like this. Did he have a quarrel with Ao Jun? Thinking of this, he stepped over the threshold, but heard a sobbing cry. Xiao Ye and others waited at the door, closed the door, and hurried to her side. Seeing her twitching shoulders, he didn't know how to comfort her.
"Aojun...what happened?" Gu Yunru asked in a gentle voice, with a cautious attitude and some tentativeness. She saw a piece of scattered yellow paper beside the table. She picked it up and took a look. Unexpectedly, it was a divorce letter.
"This... was written by Huang Zijun?" Gu Yunru almost couldn't breathe. She couldn't believe that the relationship between them had come to an end.
"He wrote it. He wants to divorce me." Shen Aojun's eyes were full of anger and pain. His hands were empty, as if he was trying to grab something, using all his strength.
"Aojun, don't be too sad. Isn't this just what you wished for?" Gu Yunru's face changed, and he hurriedly sat beside her to comfort her, trying to bring the situation back to normal.
"It's not what I wished... I just wanted to stay in the general's mansion, but I never expected that the day would come when I would be abandoned. Now that my father has left me, even he is going to leave me..." Shen Aojun's voice was low and hoarse. It seemed that she had just argued with Huang Zijun, but to no avail.
Gu Yunru thought about it and realized that Huang Zijun did not stay in the mansion to look after Shen Aojun these days, but went to Keren House. He must have done this for Kang Keren.

"Ao Jun, it's better not to have such a heartless man!"
Gu Yunru patted her back, unable to bear watching her bow her head in tears. Shen Aojun raised her tear-stained face, her eyes red and swollen, "But... Yunru, if you are divorced, how will the world comment on the Shen family? Those people may be eager to see the Shen family make a fool of themselves."
At this point, Shen Aojun is concerned about the glory of the Shen family. Now that the Shen family is about to decline, Lord Shen’s affairs have brought her a heavy blow, and now she has been cruelly abandoned. It is really outrageous.
"Ao Jun, you don't have to care about the worldly views. They don't live as well as you, but they jump up and down and say this and that about you. It's nothing but jealousy." Gu Yunru is well aware of the fact that people are jealous. They just want others to see them living the same uncomfortable life as they do, so that they can feel balanced in their hearts.
"Don't be sad for now, and don't do anything unreasonable." Gu Yunru looked at her with worry, afraid that Shen Aojun would not be able to hold on for a while and would want to end it all.
"Yunru..." Shen Aojun wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and took a deep breath pretending to be strong. The scene changed. Gu Yunru cooked black chicken soup for Rong Zhen and came to visit. These days, he always locked himself in the study and refused to go anywhere to the northwest. The war was tense and he would probably have to lead an army to fight the enemy again.
"A Zhao, can't you not go this time?" Gu Yunru was grinding ink for him beside him. She kept thinking about this matter in her heart and couldn't sleep or eat.
