At the same time, someone walked up to the door of the mansion at the end of Official Street. The servant opened the door and asked in confusion,"May I know who you are looking for?"
"I'm looking for the Fourth Prince.”The woman outside nodded politely.
"Please wait a moment." The manservant was a little surprised, because ever since Jiu Ranyou resigned, he almost never left his house and refused all officials to visit. The Fourth Imperial Consort did not have many friends to visit, so the Fourth Prince's residence had always been deserted. The woman who had just arrived was dressed in a simple and elegant manner, and it was impossible to tell her identity. The servant had no choice but to return and report.
Not long after, the servant ran back and said apologetically,"I'm sorry, miss. His Highness said that he doesn't know you. Please go back.”
The woman outside the door seemed to have expected such an answer. She said unhurriedly,"Please tell the Fourth Prince that the Second Prince has something urgent to discuss with the Fourth Prince.”
Not expecting this girl to be the Second Prince's envoy, the servant boy's eyes widened and he ran back into the room to report.
"His Highness said to invite Young Lady to the study.”
"Sorry for the trouble." The woman nodded and thanked him before entering the manor with the servant.
Jiu Ranyou was already waiting in the study. When he saw the woman, his eyes revealed some surprise.
"Greetings, Your Highness." The woman bowed respectfully.
"I remember…you're Second Brother's Miracle Doctor.”Jiu Ranyou said lightly.
"I have come with a message from the Second Prince.”Weishi handed the envelope to Jiu Ranyou, her eyes slightly stunned. Although she was not familiar with Jiu Ranyou, she knew that this Fourth Prince was extremely calm and magnanimous. She did not expect that after not seeing him for so many days, the vitality in his eyes had actually weakened to this extent.
Jiu Ranyou took the envelope but was not in a hurry to open it.""Is it safe for Miss Yu to enter Official Street?”
Wei Shi nodded. At this moment, a few guards were investigating the situation and would arrive in a while. The Second Prince said that the Fourth Prince's mansion would be under surveillance, but with those guards, there was no need to worry about being discovered.”
When Jiu Ranyou heard this, he slowly opened the envelope. There was no sign of anger on his handsome face."Is Second Brother doing well in the Tan Prefecture?"
Weishi was silent for a long time before she said,""He is no longer in the Tan Province. When I left the Tan Province, he left with me.”
"I think Second Brother won't stay in Tanzhou and do nothing."”
"Yes." Weishi continued, her gaze landing on Jiu Ranyou's eyebrows with scrutiny." After all, her most beloved sister is still trapped in the palace. Your Highness, he asked me to ask on his behalf," Are you…really going to stand by and watch?”
Zhan Xin paused, and Jiu Ranyou's voice did not fluctuate much.""Now that I'm all alone, what else can I do?”
"If Your Highness is willing to intervene, it is not impossible for the situation to be reversed in an instant. He said he believed in your abilities."
"Second Brother overestimated me." However, Jiu Ranyou refused to relent." Second Brother sent you here just to tell me this?”
" No." Wei Shi's gentle tone was powerful at this moment." He wants to assist you in becoming the emperor."”
Even Jiu Ranyou could not help but be flabbergasted, as if Weishi had played a huge joke on him. After a while, his expression darkened."I refuse."
" But…" Jiu Ranyou's rejection was within Jiu Ranqing's expectations, but before Wei Shi could persuade him, Jiu Ranyou interrupted,""I've already decided not to get involved in those muddy waters. The ownership of the throne has nothing to do with me. I don't want to get involved, so please leave.”
" You…" Weishi was really anxious, but before she could say anything, she was stopped. She turned around and saw a woman in luxurious clothes standing behind her. She looked like a peerless heavenly fragrance that even she could not help but exclaim in admiration.
Lin Funing looked at her husband with a slight pain in her eyes, but her words were still cold.""What about the princess?"
Jiu Ranyou's movements and expression froze in an instant.
" The princess is about to marry the emperor of Shaoning Country. Is this the result you want to see?" Lin Funing asked.”
Jiu Ranyou did not speak. Vishi looked at the two of them quietly, as if she had sensed some truth.
"Now that the Seventh Prince has surrounded the palace and the Second Prince has taken action, you could have done something, but you chose to remain silent. Chenqie will not comment on mother consort's matter, but protecting her……wasn't that the oath you made since you were young!”
" I..." Jiu Ranyou did not know how to retort. The two voices in his heart pulled him so hard that he could not even straighten his back.
Lin Funing walked in front of him and gently stroked his cheek. Her words seemed to be full of temptation."If you want to save her, you should become the emperor. If you become the emperor, you can fulfill all her wishes.”
Jiu Ranyou looked at his wife in a daze. The latter leaned her head over and said softly,"You two are not fated in this life, but if you can do this for her, then your life will not be in vain.”
"Your Highness, the wedding is tomorrow." Lin Funing smiled.”
Jiu Ranyou looked at the face in front of him without moving, as if it had quietly overlapped with another face. There was a faint look of pity on his face as he said,"Holding your hand and accompanying you to the end of the world, this might be my lifelong dream. I want them to be happy because I can only waste my time in this palace.”
When he heard that, it was a pain that made him want to instantly turn white. He wanted to jump to the next life immediately and try not to let her show such a sad expression again, because he was so helpless in this life.
However, even with such a powerless self, could she still realize her dream?
"Can I?" he asked in a daze.
"You can." The moment she answered, Lin Funing's eyes were misty, but Jiu Ranyou did not see it.
This sentence was like the key to unlocking his heart. Jiu Ranyou's ears seemed to ring with Jiu Ranling's smile of regaining freedom. At this moment, he finally found his answer and found the meaning of his willingness to live.
He would never forgive her, but he still couldn't help but want her to be happy. He wanted her to have that comfortable smile, even if he had to sacrifice his entire life, even if he had to walk a path that he was unwilling to walk.
The chaos in his eyes gradually disappeared, and the dark clouds in his heart dispersed. Jiu Ran You shifted his gaze to Wei Shi."What is Second Brother's plan?" His tone was as if he had been reborn.
" It's like this…" Weishi said slowly.
Lin Funing's lips twitched slightly, then she closed the study door and retreated.
"Fourth Imperial Consort." Suddenly stopped, Wei Shi whispered from behind her,""Thank you."
"No need to thank me." Her voice was still as cold as ice." I did it for myself.”
In order to one day, she could also become the empress and grab that supreme power.
She said that to herself, but at the moment she took a few light steps, tears rolled down her eyes, extremely slowly, and then she fell to the ground and shattered.
