Chapter 105 I Regret
Upon hearing this, Emperor Rongcheng snorted coldly.
"snort!"
"What a joke! My words are golden, how can I take them back?"
"I think you've been sitting on the throne of Crown Prince for too long, and now you don't know what to do and what not to do!"
Chen Hechuan continued, "Your Majesty, I know what I am doing."
"Gu Jingchun, the daughter of the Yong'an Marquis, saved me five years ago. For many years, I have been thinking about her.
Now that I have the good fortune to meet her, I naturally do not want to let her go. I hope that Your Majesty, considering that I have been in love with her for many years, will revoke your order and fulfill my wish."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Rongcheng snorted coldly again.
"It's really good."
"She's just a woman, yet His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, who is always so high and mighty, has come here in person to beg me to rescind my decision?!"
As Emperor Rongcheng spoke, murderous intent instantly flashed in his eyes.
"It seems that this charming and seductive woman cannot be kept."
Hearing this, Shen Hechuan looked up suddenly.
"Father, I have never begged you before!"
"This time, I beg you!"
"This is the only request I have. I hope Your Majesty will grant me this one favor, considering I have been diligent and hardworking for so many years and have never made a mistake."
After he finished speaking, he added another sentence.
"If possible, I would like to give up the position of Crown Prince and only ask for your approval."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Rongcheng suddenly stood up.
"absurd!"
He glared at Shen Hechuan angrily.
"As the Crown Prince, you actually disregarded the court officials and the people behind you for a woman, and spoke such irresponsible words just for your own momentary pleasure. It's simply ridiculous!"
Emperor Rongcheng roared.
"I don't know what kind of woman could have attracted you so much and made you say such outrageous words.
In that case, I'll just kill her and save you from worrying about her."
Upon hearing this, Chen Hechuan suddenly chuckled.
"Father, that's the daughter of the Marquis of Yong'an. Are you sure you want to kill her?"
After he finished speaking, before Emperor Rongcheng could open his mouth, he continued, "Aren't you afraid that the Marquis of Yong'an will become estranged from you and harbor dissenting opinions?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Rongcheng's expression changed drastically. He stared at Chen Hechuan intently, and his hands in his sleeves began to tremble with anger.
Shen Hechuan's words were obviously a warning to him.
If Gu Jingchun is injured, Marquis Yong'an will definitely use this as an excuse to rebel.
Others may not believe this, but Emperor Rongcheng will definitely doubt it and then believe it.
Otherwise, he would not have used the third prince's marriage to warn Marquis Yong'an.
After all, he was a general with military power back then. He finally rebelled, seized the throne, and established Dacheng.
Now, the entire Dacheng is under his governance, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
However, as he grew older, the seeds of doubt in his heart grew bigger.
He became increasingly worried about Marquis Yong'an.
Therefore, Chen Hechuan was sure that Emperor Rongcheng would not act rashly against Gu Jingchun.
However, at this time, Emperor Rongcheng's face was already covered with a haze, and he looked at Chen Hechuan sinisterly.
He has always had a love-hate relationship with this son.
Because he is too smart and too perfect.
It was so perfect that even the emperor had nowhere to hide in front of him.
Just like now, Shen Hechuan just looked at him like this, and a few words could make his emotions flare up again.
"Father, you keep saying that I disregarded my own status for a woman.
But didn't you also risk the wrath of the world for your mother and insist on making her your queen?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Rongcheng stood up instantly.
Her eyes bulged out and her face flushed red with anger; it was no longer possible to describe her simply as angry.
"you……"
"Asshole!"
He shouted angrily, trying to stop Shen Hechuan from speaking any further.
But Shen Hechuan was not afraid at all. He knelt on the ground, his back straight, and continued to argue with a determined look:
"I mentioned Mother not to offend you, but to remind you of your love for her, and to connect it with my current feelings.
I hope that Your Majesty can fulfill my sincere and sincere wish."
After Shen Hechuan finished speaking, he slowly leaned forward and kowtowed, repeating again:
"Your Majesty, I beg you to revoke your order."
Emperor Rongcheng looked at Chen Hechuan and slowly sat on the dragon throne.
He stared straight at the five-clawed golden dragon above him, and his thoughts seemed to go back to the past.
That year, when he first ascended the throne, he ignored the objections of his ministers and forcefully made her the queen.
But what was left for him on the night of his coronation?
What has he brought to her over the years?
After a while, Emperor Rongcheng suddenly chuckled a few times.
He looked at Chen Hechuan again and spoke slowly.
"What a love back then."
He murmured in a low voice, as if he was advising Shen Hechuan, but also stating it to himself.
"But what if Father tells you that he regrets it?"
Hearing this, Shen Hechuan raised his head abruptly, and his originally resolute expression was instantly replaced by anger.
"Father, what are you talking about?"
"Do you regret it?"
"You've caused Mother to bear the infamy for years, trapped her in the deep palace for years, and now you're trying to brush this matter off with just a few words of regret?"
"Have you ever thought about how your mother would feel when she heard this?"
Shen Hechuan's voice was choked with sobs, and his words were filled with indignation, with slightly red eyes.
He couldn't help but think of Gu Jingchun's words that day.
"Don't tell me you'll remember it forever."
"Don't tell me you won't have other women."
"Not to mention that I'm the only one in your heart."
"I don't believe it."
…
He slowly stood up and looked at Emperor Rongcheng with a serious look.
"Father, no matter how you've treated me over the years, no matter how much you've doted on Prince Rui, in my heart, you've always been my most beloved father."
He said with a self-deprecating smile, muttering.
"But, now."
"Father."
"You really disappoint me."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and slowly retreated, ignoring the gaze of Emperor Rong Cheng behind him.
Emperor Rongcheng looked at Shen Hechuan's back and suddenly stood up.
"How dare you!"
"Did I let you go?"
"I am still the emperor!"
"Stop right there!"
Chen Hechuan paused for a moment, but soon continued walking forward.
Emperor Rongcheng raised his voice and roared:
"So what if I regret it?"
"I stopped you because I regretted it. I did it for your own good!"
"Do you think your mother is the only one who has a bad reputation?"
"For so many years, what have all my ministers said about me in their hearts? Don't I know it?"
"Even in the history books, this reputation will follow me for the rest of my life, for thousands of generations to come."
