Chapter 225 Asking for the Emperor's Forgiveness
When Lin You returned to Yunqian Palace after court, she saw a sedan chair parked outside. She glanced at the eunuchs and palace maids waiting there and found that they were from Concubine De's palace.
It seems that Concubine De is here again.
However, it was rare that she was not outside the palace this time. It seemed that Shen Jing'an summoned her.
When she got up to attend court today, Shen Jing'an had not woken up yet, and she didn't know how he was doing now.
With doubts, Lin You stepped in. As soon as he entered the palace, he saw Concubine De kneeling in front of the dragon bed.
The frail emperor on the dragon couch suppressed his cough and asked, "Are you here today also for Zhu Siyu's matter?"
Concubine De prostrated herself on the ground, not even daring to raise her head, and spoke with difficulty, "...Yes."
She always thought that only Concubine You knew about this.
She was waiting for Lin You outside Yunqian Palace just now, but she didn't expect the emperor to suddenly summon her in.
Her heart was suddenly in a panic.
Although she had been in the palace for many years, she seldom saw Shen Jing'an and spoke to him very rarely.
After stepping into this temple which she had never been to before, her body began to tremble.
She originally thought it was about the exile of the Zhu family, but unexpectedly it was about Zhu Siyu, which made her even more panicked.
In fact, she should have thought of it earlier. After all, Concubine You was the emperor's bedfellow. She came to see Concubine You many times. The last time Siyu was thrown in front of the palace gate, the news also spread widely in the palace. The emperor should have noticed it.
So, did the emperor summon her here to question her?
If she is not careful and the emperor becomes suspicious and misunderstands that she and Siyu are having an affair, then both her life and Siyu's life will be in danger.
So it’s best to just admit it openly for now.
"I have already faked his death and rescued him."
Upon hearing this, Concubine De was shocked and raised her head in disbelief to look at the pale and handsome emperor sitting on the dragon couch.
Did the emperor come up with the idea of faking death?
The emperor did not blame her, but helped her rescue Siyu!
She thought about it all night last night, and the plan of faking her death was indeed a good one. This way, Shen Yu would not look for Siyu to threaten her again.
"I bow to thank the emperor. Your kindness and generosity will be remembered forever by me and my brother."
Concubine De gritted her teeth, tried to calm herself down, and kowtowed deeply to the young emperor sitting on the dragon couch.
She also emphasized the word "guilty concubine".
Shen Jing'an's eyelashes twitched slightly, wondering if she used these two words because she felt guilty about Minister Zhu's betrayal, or if she used these words because she felt guilty about having someone else in her heart.
He spoke again, "The fake death drug was found by Concubine You, and the person you should thank is her."
"Yes, we will always remember the kindness that Concubine You and the Emperor have shown to me and my brother."
Concubine De knew better than anyone that rescuing Siyu would not be possible without the help of Concubine You.
The person she has always been most grateful to is Concubine You.
[It seems that Shen Jingan still cares about Concubine De. Look, he even called her in and told Concubine De the news in person.]
Eunuch Hong got angry again after hearing Lin You's inner voice.
Their emperor is obviously wise, benevolent and generous. How can he care or not?
If he were the emperor, he would probably be so angry that he died.
Alas, his little Gang is still the best, considerate and thoughtful, and never makes him angry.
"Cough cough!"
The young emperor on the dragon couch began to cough.
Defei moved her body and wanted to go forward to take a look, but saw the weak emperor raised his hand to stop her.
At this moment, a refreshing scent of flowers and trees wafted across his nose, and he saw a slender figure in front of the couch. She sat beside the emperor and stroked his chest. "Your Majesty, come, follow me, breathe in, breathe out."
Lin You stroked his chest with one hand, and with the other hand, he moved it up with his inhalation and down with his exhalation.
Shen Jing'an looked at her and followed her movements obediently, breathing in and out, and indeed he felt much better.
Defei, who was kneeling on the ground, saw the usually indifferent emperor looking at Lin You tenderly and following her actions, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
She didn't care about Shen Jing'an before, so she didn't pay too much attention to this weak emperor.
Looking carefully now, I discovered that the weak emperor also has such a gentle side.
As gentle as the bright moon hanging in the sky, he carefully protected Lin You under his brilliance and doted on her.
Such a holy and clean man is definitely not someone that she can approach.
Feeling that the coughing had subsided a lot, Shen Jing'an supported himself on the bed, sat up, and turned his gaze back to Concubine De.
"After the Three Kingdoms Conference, I will find a suitable opportunity to cause your accidental death. Then, you can run away with Zhu Siyu."
Concubine De looked into his cold eyes, her pupils trembled fiercely, and she kowtowed hurriedly, saying in fear: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I saved Zhu Siyu only because he was bullied by people in the mansion since he was a child. I wanted to atone for my family, so I asked Concubine You to help save him."
"It's not that I have any other private relationship with him."
Lin You looked at her trembling with fear, and glanced at Shen Jingan's expression.
This is all she can do to help Concubine De. Next, it all depends on what Shen Jing'an does.
"I know that you and Zhu Siyu have each other in your hearts. You don't need to quibble or panic. I don't have you in my heart, so I let you go voluntarily."
Yanlu has just sent back the news that they have extracted words from Zhu Siyu and that he really likes Concubine De.
You can even take his life.
After hearing Shen Jing'an's words, Concubine De's head was buzzing. She raised her head in shock and looked at the cold and indifferent weak emperor.
There was not a single ripple in his clean and cold eyes, as calm as an ancient well.
"emperor……"
For a moment, Concubine De didn't know what to say.
She could no longer defend herself, but she was afraid that this was just a show, a show put on by the emperor to test her. Once she admitted it, she would be dead without a burial place.
So, she looked at Lin You, wanting to get an answer from him.
"The emperor and I have long known about your relationship with Zhu Siyu. Since you did not choose to be Shen Yu's lackey for Zhu Siyu, and you have stuck to your bottom line and did not betray the emperor, the emperor and I are willing to let you two ill-fated couples go."
Although Lin You was somewhat skeptical about Shen Jing'an's generosity, he still believed in his heart that he would not harm Concubine De and Zhu Siyu.
She also knew that Concubine De was taking this into consideration, so she just went straight to the point.
Defei's eyes flickered, and her eye sockets gradually became hot.
Then he kowtowed heavily to the two of them.
She choked up and said, "I thank the Emperor and the Empress."
At this moment, she didn't know what else to say except thank you.
In short, she will remember their kindness in her heart forever.
In fact, before coming to see Concubine You, she had already made up her mind to risk it all.
He planned to take Siyu and escape during the Three Kingdoms Conference.
Yes, escape. Although she didn't know how far they could escape, they could hold each other's hands unscrupulously and run together in this beautiful country during this time.
Even if they died together in the end, they would have no regrets.
