After all, from the beginning, he should not have been tied up by this matter. He just wanted to get rid of his original fate and no longer be close to Shen Zhongbai, but what was the final result
The friends around him left one by one, but Gu Qiang could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything.
"I just want to apologize to you, and I also want to know why you suddenly changed your mind. Even when Shen Qianshan's life and death were uncertain and everyone thought he was no longer alive, you still didn't want to be there. By my side." Shen Zhongbai was still a little emotional as he spoke. These things really bothered him for a long time.
Shen Qianshan is a member of the royal family just like him. Whatever he can do, he can also do. She has never felt that she is any worse than him, but Gu Qiang has never looked at herself like this.
Gu Qiang looked at the excited Shen Zhongbai in front of him and even felt a little ridiculous.
"Why bother? You know very well that the only way you can get me now is to kill me." Gu Qiang did not expect that Shen Zhongbai would choose to use such means to direct and act in a good show in order to conceal his identity with medicine. It's like a play for everyone in the world.
She saw clearly that there were corpses everywhere outside. She didn't dare to say that everyone outside was innocent, but could Shen Zhongbai guarantee that everyone inside was unforgivable
"Your Majesty, have you seen the corpses lying outside? Everyone has flesh and blood and emotions. The relationship between me and the prince is not so easily destroyed, so even when no one believes that he is still alive , I must also believe that he will not abandon me so easily."
Gu Qiang didn't know how to explain to the person in front of him. In Gu Qiang's eyes, Shen Zhongbai had always been an emotionless person. Just like he could use himself or Shen Qiangwei at that time, in his eyes , only he himself is the most important.
"Hmph," Shen Zhongbai was obviously a little disdainful after hearing this, "I will prove to you that the indestructible relationship you said between you and Shen Qianshan cannot withstand the test." When Shen Zhongbai left, , leaving only such an inexplicable sentence, he always likes to use the simplest and most effective way to solve problems, and never likes to beat around the bush, but this time, he just wants to prove to Gu Qiang that Shen Qianshan and himself There is actually no difference.
There will always be things that will affect the relationship between them. No matter how good their relationship is, it may not have a good result.
"Your Majesty, instead of focusing on these things, you should take a look at whether the benevolent and virtuous governance you keep talking about has actually been realized, and what you have done."
Shen Zhongbai waved his sleeves and walked out of the mountain wall, taking all his people with him. After Shen Qianshan saw him leaving, you knew that the matter was almost resolved, so he took Chu Tiankuo out with him.
Gu Qiang knew that Shen Qianshan and the others were probably still looking for him, and he was still worried about A Li who had just been seriously injured, so he did not go directly to the capital, but went to the cliff where he was trapped just now.
But waiting at that place were not only Shen Qianshan and Chu Tiankuo, but also A Li who could no longer stand up.
It is also convenient to deal with A Li's funeral affairs. It is nothing more than some remaining clothes and other things. Although they have always been in Yuhua Building, the furnishings in A Li's room are indeed simple, and there is no one at home. Ah Li left almost silently. Apart from a few of them, no one else seemed to know.
"A Li is still very good and loyal to you as my master, but..."
Gu Qiang still felt a little pity. In fact, if A Li had not followed that day, maybe so many things would not have happened later, and A Li would not have died in that place.
"Actually, A Li will be better to you. I did save her, but between the two of us, she actually believes in you more." At the beginning, Shen Qianshan himself was unwilling to admit this matter. After all, Yuhualou itself has been running it for so many years. However, he only ran that place to make it easier for him to collect intelligence. But when Gu Qiang took over, it was completely different.
When A Li was poisoned, it was Gu Qiang who investigated the truth of everything. But before that, if it was in his own hands and something like this happened, as long as A Li was fine, he would definitely wait until she recovered. After everything is over, let her solve the matter by herself.
Shen Qianshan always thought that by doing this, he would allow them to deal with these matters personally and give them greater freedom to deal with their own affairs. However, Gu Qiang was completely different. She would not allow those around her to be harmed. Being willing to treat others with sincerity is probably why A Li followed her even though he knew it was very dangerous after seeing her.
"Really, maybe." Gu Qiang didn't know what she should say now. No matter what, A Li encountered such a thing because he wanted to save himself. Gu Qiang always felt that the pressure on her body was getting heavier and heavier. It's getting more and more serious. There are many things that may not happen if you don't intervene.
Shen Qianshan didn't know that so many things would happen during this period. He originally thought that Liu Rongchen's incident might be over with time, but now something like this happened again.
"Actually, you can think that A Li was so seriously injured because of me. After all, she has always been my subordinate. She went out today to help me with things. Meeting you was just an accident."
Shen Qianshan always felt very powerless at times like this. He knew that this excuse was too pale, but he couldn't think of any better reason. Gu Qiang ultimately blamed herself for everything, and the pressure was on her. It will get bigger and bigger.
Shen Zhongbai has not forgotten what Gu Qiang said to him when he was in the cave. He will never admit that he is wrong, so he must prove that the man Gu Qiang loves wholeheartedly has nothing in common with him. The difference is that they are all people who are desperate for power and status. There are always some things that can affect them, and their feelings seem to be vulnerable.
Since the last time, Shen Zhongbai has not allowed the Queen Mother to leave her palace. However, after all, the matter is an internal matter within the royal family and cannot be too big. After that, Ai plus, he quickly used some other things This matter was suppressed, so no one in the court dared to mention it.
So at this spring banquet, Shen Zhongbai reluctantly lifted the empress dowager's confinement, but this matter was not as simple as he imagined.
"Your Majesty, General Rong's daughter has returned to Beijing."
The people under Shen Zhongbai have always paid close attention to everyone and everything related to Shen Qianshan, but Rongyue's return this time is not necessarily a bad thing for Shen Zhongbai.
"Is it Rongyue?" If Shen Zhongbai remembers correctly, this Rongyue should be his mother's adopted daughter. General Rong died in the battle, and it was his mother who proposed to adopt Rongyue as her adopted daughter at that time. , but she voluntarily followed her master, so she has not been in the capital for so many years. If she hadn't suddenly mentioned it, she might have already networked with several people like this.
"Yes."
"What did she come back for?" Shen Zhongbai has never paid attention to these people who will not affect him. What's more, at that time, if his mother hadn't taken her in, there would be no male in the Rong family, and the General's Mansion would soon be without a general. It will lose its majesty! ,,,,: She has already been living on the streets.
"It's not clear yet, but after Miss Rong comes back, she wants to go to the palace to see the Queen Mother."
It was understandable that Rongyue wanted to see the Queen Mother. Shen Zhongbai also knew that he could not keep his mother locked up all the time. There was no airtight wall in this world. Sooner or later, the news that the Queen Mother was grounded would spread, and he would never In the beginning, I just wanted to teach my mother-in-law a lesson, and I was not really planning to ground her for life.
"Let's send someone to pick them up. It's just in time for the Spring Banquet, so there's a reason." Shen Zhongbai really felt that sometimes the emperor was really not as good as the common people outside. Why didn't he know that, What the Queen Mother did at that time was all for herself, but he just couldn't condone the Queen Mother's behavior. Not to mention that as the Queen Mother, she shouldn't care about human life. Even if it was to convince Shen Qianshan, he couldn't No action was taken against the Queen Mother at all.
Rongyue's return has given him a good opportunity to release his mother. After all, for him, being the king of a country still requires a step up.
If it had been someone else, Shen Zhongbai might not have been able to decide, but this time it was Rong Yue who wanted to see the Queen Mother. Even if Shen Qianshan really had any complaints against himself, he would not be dissatisfied with Rong Yue. After all, the relationship between Rongyue and him was indeed extraordinary.
Shen Zhongbai first learned about Rong Yue, who was just the daughter of General Rong. After General Rong died on the battlefield, she should have been of no use to him. But just when the Rong family was about to be destroyed, The Queen Mother suddenly stood up. When everyone wanted to ignore the matter and ignore it, she accepted Rong Yue as her adopted daughter.
At that time, Shen Zhongbai did not have the comprehensive intelligence network he has now.
