After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

This nanny was sent out of the house after the death of Princess Suping. This time I came to Beijing specifically to tell Lu Changan about this.

"The princess treated us servants very well, and even helped my son find a good job. This old slave cannot be ungrateful, so I thought that before I go to the grave, I must tell the prince the truth about that year."

After saying that, the old woman stood up and bowed, then turned and left.

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, he sighed deeply and walked forward.

"You have been weak since you were a child, but you have taken good care of yourself and have not become that weak. When we first met at the Zhenguo Palace, I thought you must have been poisoned, but you didn't realize it. Later. Your grandmother found a goddess named Liu to exorcise evil spirits and cure your illness. I gave the goddess some money and asked her to make up a lie that you were in conflict with the palace, so that you could move out of the palace and the person who harmed you would be gone. I can’t continue to poison you.”

Lu Changan's eyes trembled, "Did you arrange that for the goddess?"

"Qu Moran also told you later that you were poisoned, but at that time you probably just suspected your stepmother, right?"

"Yes."

"But if you think about it now, does King Suping really have no idea at all?"

Lu Changan's expression tensed, yes, was his father really unaware of it? This is not a day and a half, but more than ten years. He has also called in many doctors. It is impossible that everyone can't tell that he is poisoned, right?

Because my grandfather's family was also an aristocratic family, the emperor named him the crown prince as soon as he was born. But his father didn't like him, and preferred his second brother who was powerful and often went to the battlefield with him. He selfishly wanted to pass the throne to his second son, but he, the eldest son, stood in the way...

So my father should have seen it, but he acquiesced.

After Lu Changan figured it out, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Actually, I don't like his throne. He can give it to whoever he likes. Why would he harm me?"

"What are you going to do now?"

Lu Changan leaned his head and pondered for a long time, then sighed: "What can I do? If you think about it carefully, I am so useless."

"Your Majesty, you are not useless, you just have a clean mind and don't have those scheming plans."

"Perhaps one day, I can let the two of them kneel in front of my mother's grave and admit their mistake."

"Definitely."

Lu Changan looked up at Liu Yunxiang and saw that her face was not good, so he asked with concern: "Did something happen to you?"

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I would like to ask Prince Lu to do me a favor."

"You said."

"I want to take Yan'er and Xingyi to leave Shengjing, but I must have a reason to convince the Queen Mother to leave the palace, and more importantly, make Yan Mu give up and let us leave."

Jin You was eyeing Yan'er, so she had no choice but to use the power of King Suping to block her.

"how can I help you?"

"Please Queen Mother to grant marriage for the two of us!"

Lu Changan was startled for a moment, then nodded, "It just so happens that he sent me to the northwest. I can take you out of Shengjing in a legitimate manner."

"It's just at King Suping's place..."

"He doesn't care who I marry."

On the morning of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Liu Yunxiang returned to the courtyard in the west of the city.

She went directly to the Queen Mother's courtyard and knelt down in front of her as soon as she entered the door.

"Please ask the Queen Mother to grant a marriage to this servant and Prince Lu."

The Queen Mother was holding a cup of tea when she heard this and paused, "You want to marry Lu Changan?"

"Yes."

"What about Lao Qi?"

"His Majesty Seventh Prince and I have no connection, so I won't force you."

The Queen Mother picked up the tea, took a sip, and said: "It turns out that Lao Qi, Marquis Jing'an and Prince Lu went to court because of you. It would have caused a big mess, so I brought you into the palace. Yesterday, I heard that Seven people in the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, including the Marquis of Jing'an, all died of the epidemic, do you know about this?"

Liu Yunxiang's heart trembled slightly, how could she not know that she was the one who caused them to contract the disease.

But she was still a little surprised when she heard it from the Queen Mother. She thought that after she left, Yan Mu would find a doctor to save Xie Zian's family. After all, they were their chess pieces and should be useful.

But they are all dead...

Yan Mu let them die.

"This slave has also heard about it," Liu Yunxiang said.

"There is one less Marquis Jing'an, but there is still Lao Qi. Can he allow you to marry Prince Lu?"

"In the past, Yun Xiang was confused and fell in love with His Highness the Seventh Prince by mistake. Later, after experiencing too many things, he realized that it is better to live a solid life with a down-to-earth person than to cling to an illusory love."

The Queen Mother glanced at the door and asked, "Then do you still love His Highness Seventh Prince?"

"I don't love anymore."

"Why?"

"Loving him is too tiring, too painful, and too unworthy."

At this point, Liu Yunxiang kowtowed to the Queen Mother, "So I ask the Queen Mother to make the decision for Yunxiang, and marry Yunxiang to Prince Lu, either as his wife or concubine."

"Is Lu Changan the one who makes you feel at ease?"

"Yes, Yun Xiang wants to live a stable life with him away from Shengjing!"

The Queen Mother sighed, and then stood up, "I will marry you to Lu Chang'an. It's just a matter of one sentence, but you should make it clear to Lao Qi first. I don't dare to mess with his bad temper."

With that said, the Queen Mother went back to the West Room.

Liu Yunxiang turned around after realizing it and saw Yan Mu standing at the door, with a face full of disbelief and at the same time hidden anger.

"Do you want to marry Lu Changan?"

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips and said, "Yes."

"Don't think about it!"

Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows, "Your Majesty, Seventh Highness, are you interested?"

Yan Mu narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"

"Must I hate you?"

Yan Mu's eyes turned red, "Why do you hate me!"

"Why don't you hold on to me!"

"I love you!"

"I do not love you anymore!"

Yan Mu hesitated for a moment, then his pupils tightened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You lied!"

Liu Yunxiang walked up to Yan Mu, stared into his eyes, and said word by word: "I don't love you anymore!"

"you……"

"You don't believe it, do you?"

Liu Yunxiang nodded, suddenly pulled out the long sword from his waist, took a step back and put it against his heart.

Yan Mu sneered, "You want to kill me?"

There was madness in his eyes, "As long as you kill me, no one will stop you from marrying Lu Changan! Just kill me!"

The next moment, Liu Yunxiang took back the sword but put it against his neck.

"You!" Yan Mu panicked.

Liu Yunxiang's tears fell, "Yan Mu, I don't owe you anything. I have loved you all my life. Please let me go in this life!"

"Why are you crying? Isn't it me who should be crying?"

"Please...let me go!"

Yan Mu's anger was suddenly defeated by Liu Yunxiang's tears. He didn't believe that Liu Yunxiang didn't love him anymore, but he could clearly see how much pain he caused Liu Yunxiang.

The words "Loving him is too tiring, too painful, and too unworthy" were actually spoken from the bottom of my heart.

"Yan Mu..." Liu Yunxiang looked at Yan Mu through tears, and his face was blurred, so she could continue to say cruelly: "I would rather die than be with you anymore!"

Upon hearing these words, all the emotions in Yan Mu's eyes, whether pain or anger, disappeared at once, leaving an empty space.
