Acuerdo de Mu Yucheng

Capítulo 153

"Your Highness!" Yuan Niang, who was following behind her, exclaimed in surprise, looking at him in disbelief.

She paused for a moment before smiling faintly, "Your Highness Prince Jin has overstepped your bounds."

He showed no anger or resentment, and his expression remained completely unchanged!

How could she have such an attitude?

Zhao Guangyi gritted his teeth, turned his eyes to look around and saw that there were no palace servants moving. He suddenly grabbed her wrist with the hand that was blocking her, pulled her sharply to the side of the palace door, slammed the door open with his elbow, pulled her inside, and closed the door tightly at the same time.

"you--"

"The reason my brother married you was because he thought you resembled Empress He, but I found that absurd. So I told my brother frankly that you have nothing in common with Empress He, which is why you lost your favor!"

She looked quite surprised, staring at him with her clear, watery eyes for a long time before smiling slightly. "So that's how it is. I finally understand. I always thought it was because I hadn't conceived a dragon child. Thank you for your guidance, Prince Jin."

Damn woman!

"Stop laughing!"

She was stunned, looking at his angry face with bewildered eyes, truly not understanding why he was so angry.

Zhao Guangyi stared at her innocent appearance. She didn't have any of the demeanor of an empress at all. The woman in front of him was just a teenage girl with a simple heart, so directly showing her true self to him.

"If that's what you want, I'll get it for you."

He slammed those words down his throat at her, then quickly stole a light kiss on her lips. Not daring to look at her expression, he turned and left in a flash.

He never saw her again in the following months.

But while she may not have taken his promise to her seriously, he always remembered it.

However, to his utter surprise, before he could even make any move, Lady Huarui came to him first.

That day, during their encounter in the Kunning Palace, this woman actually witnessed him pulling the Empress into the palace and then using that to blackmail him. He was furious and immediately decided that this woman must not be allowed to live.

So when he was ordered to accompany his elder brother on a hunting trip, he took advantage of the chaos to shoot an arrow at Lady Huarui, who was accompanying him, and easily took the life of this woman who might have threatened him and the empress.

He never expected that because of this incident, that damned woman would so cruelly cut off all contact with him!

Zhao Guangyi 2 Unable to Bear the Dream for Ten Years

For five whole years, she truly hardened her heart and didn't exchange a single word with him.

Since Hua Ruifu's death, although her elder brother no longer dotes on her as much as before, he still frequently visits the Empress's palace. He should be at ease about this outcome.

But the unspeakable bitterness he felt made him suffer terribly.

Later, Princess Deqing became entangled with Prince Yan. However, Dezhao had his own responsibilities, and besides, Dezhao's marriage had already been reported to the Emperor, so there was no possibility of changing it. And she, the woman who had avoided him for five years, actually came to him for the sake of her so-called adopted daughter, demanding that the marriage arranged for Prince Yan be withdrawn!

How could she know? Her adopted daughter had used their relationship to threaten him. That selfish woman was willing to betray her adoptive mother, who had loved and doted on her since childhood, just to be with Dezhao!

He will never forgive!

His biggest concession was to allow Deqing to marry Defang, whom she loved most.

It had only been a year, and Deqing had suddenly disappeared! It was obvious it must be related to the Prince of Yan. He just hadn't expected her to come looking for him again because of this!

Why is it that she always does everything for others, yet has been able to ignore his feelings for so many years? Is she a kind-hearted person or a heartless one? Does she really think he's so strong that he can't feel pain?

Seeing her dressed as a palace maid, with the veil still on her head, and the anxious look on her face as she looked up at him, all of this made me unable to contain my anger.

She actually risked everything to leave the palace to find him because of that selfish woman!

"Lan'er has been missing for almost a month, could you—"

His face was ashen, and he said coldly through gritted teeth, "What does this have to do with me?"

"I know you're in a difficult position, but I have no other choice, you—"

"You can go to your elder brother, the Emperor. The whole world belongs to the Emperor, and it should be easy for him to find someone."

"But Defang said we can't alarm the Emperor! So I can only turn to you, Prince Jin—"

"shut up!"

Enraged, he approached her, gripping her slender arms tightly. He hated her subservient manner! He hated how she addressed him so distantly as "Prince Jin"! He hated how she was always worrying about others but never about herself or him!

"I can go see her, but you must promise that you will never avoid me again!"

Her face turned pale instantly. She stared at him blankly for a long time before biting her lip and gently nodding, agreeing: "I... I agree."

Damn it!

He didn't want to pressure her at all! But he always seemed to be pressuring her!

Seeing her tremble slightly under his palm, he gritted his teeth, leaned down and kissed her lips, sucking hard, as if to convey all his anger and pain to her.

"Ning'er, this time, you won't escape again!"

Everything started spiraling out of control that night.

Less than a month after Deqing was brought back to the capital, he and Miss Xue left for Luoyang. He was the only one who knew the truth of the matter. The two women were not simply going to Luoyang to recuperate, but rather using this as a pretext to go to Junzhou to investigate Zhao Dezhao.

Then, less than a month later, Deqing's maid Xuan'er returned to the capital alone, bringing news that Deqing had been kidnapped again. He couldn't imagine the extent of the matter, and he had no idea how Defang, who had already set off for Guizhou, would react if he knew that Deqing had been in danger again.

So he pleaded with his elder brother to send someone to find Deqing's whereabouts, but unexpectedly, his elder brother suddenly placed him under house arrest!

A few days later, he learned that Deqing's disappearance was actually orchestrated by his elder brother, and that he was placed under house arrest because his affair with Ning'er had been exposed. The person who secretly reported this to the Emperor was none other than Zhao Dezhao!
