Old Madam Mai had been pretending to be crazy for a long time and had not eaten properly. When she used her body to help Han Lingwei up and walked out of my sight step by step, I suddenly felt that maternal love had taken shape at this moment.

They left the Han Palace and entered their new life.

Without these rights disputes, they might live a better life.

After they left, my phone received various news about Han Lingwei's death, as well as the news that my wedding with Gu Sinian was postponed to three years later.

There was overwhelming news, but not a single piece of it was about Huo Yan.

From last night, when Gu Sinian openly picked me up from his palace, to the announcement of our marriage in the morning, and now with the shocking news, Huo Yan did not come to see me.

In the past, he would definitely arrest me and shout, "Yu Xinghe, you are so bold."

But now that he has Anna, he seems to have really changed. Even if he wants to possess me, he will leave and disappear as soon as Anna calls him.

I also staggered out of Han Lingwei's palace. The red lights and decorations outside were now changed to white one by one.

When they saw me come out, the servants climbed down the ladders and knelt in front of me. At this moment, I truly realized the centralization of imperial power, and no one dared to question me.

In their eyes, I am the cruel and ruthless Cold Emperor.

I killed my sister.

I sent Huo Huahua away to the Huai River. There was no one related to Huo Yan around me anymore, and no one would serve as his messenger or monitor.

I walked alone along the long corridor, and at the end was my palace. I did not go in, but sat on the cradle in the corridor, leaning my head on the backrest, looking at the grass and trees covered with snow, and everything seemed to have disappeared.

No matter what the grudges of the previous generation were, no matter why my mother died, no matter why my life experience brought about the murder.

I will solve all the mysteries myself.

But my eyes became more and more empty. I didn’t get enough rest after the car accident, and I fell asleep leaning on the chair without realizing it.

When I woke up again, I was already lying on the bed. I opened my eyes and saw Gu Sinian sitting on the sofa beside my bed. He was no longer wearing the wedding dress. He had changed into ordinary clothes. He was looking in my direction with his hands folded and his chin supported.

After I woke up, he quickly helped me up: "It's cold, why did you sleep on the corridor? You have a fever."

I touched my forehead and found a fever-reducing patch.

"It's okay. I just miss Shencheng a little bit."

I didn't even say I was homesick.

I don’t seem to have a home in Shenzhen, and I never seem to have a sense of belonging…

I want to give myself a home.

"Huo Huahua should collect all the ministers' money into the national treasury. In the next three years, build two bridges to allow people on both sides of the Huai River to exchange what they have. This will boost the economy. We can also develop some real estate in the slums and build factories. When everything runs smoothly, exactly three years will have passed, and it will be a gift for our wedding."

My words kept Gu Sinian silent for a long time.

I didn't say anything else and just stood aside quietly.

In the end, it was Gu Sinian who resolved the awkward situation: "It's up to you whether we get married or not. I stay with you just to atone for my sins. As for what will happen in three years, we'll talk about it in three years."

He knows me too well.

I hummed and asked, "Where is Huo Yan? With so much information bombarding him, how come he is so calm this time? According to the past..."

I pretended to smile and looked at Gu Sinian, but he looked indifferent: "Huo Yan took Anna, who had a relapse of her old heart disease, back to Continental Country last night. The medical care here is not as good as that in Continental Country. Someone also brought Gar back today. The troops of Continental Country also withdrew today."

Anna's old heart disease relapses.

I suddenly understood that Huo Yan studied cardiac surgery, and maybe his mother's heart was taken out as an excuse, and the real reason was for Anna.

Otherwise, why wouldn’t he get angry and pull me away this time because of Anna?

I'm getting married.

He didn't move at all. Was he ultimately no match for his childhood sweetheart Anna?

For some reason, the hands hiding under the quilt wanted to clench and then let go.

Then I saw Gu Sinian stood up and said, "Have a good rest and don't think too much. He is just too busy and hasn't had time to read your message."

Listening to Gu Sinian's explanation, I smiled helplessly.

"It's okay. I just want to know how he made his choice. Han Lingwei is dead, so there's no one left to threaten me, right? But he still chose Anna, which means everything he did over the past year was wrong. Isn't it not too late to correct it now?"

When I spoke, I tried to suppress the trembling in my voice.

Gu Sinian suddenly took a step forward and walked to my bedside, leaning over and kissing me gently on the forehead.

"You should ask yourself whether you love him or not. If you don't love him, it's not too late to change. If you do, I will accompany you to fight for him."

I looked at him in surprise, but he was more determined than me.

"Gu Sinian, aren't you tired? You've been revolving around me all your life."

Sometimes I really don't understand. He is a contradiction. For the sake of the world, he calculated everyone, but in the end he gave in to me out of guilt.

He is such a depressed person, will he eventually die of depression?

He didn't answer, but rubbed my head and said, "Go to sleep. You should get more rest if you have a mild brain disease."

I listened to him and lay down anyway.

When he closed the door, I couldn't help but look at my phone. Then I remembered that I seemed to have blocked Huo Yan.

We have no contact information with each other.

Looking at the news, apart from Han Lingwei's death, there is also the news that my wedding will be postponed for three years.

He didn't even see this, and I felt a sense of loss in my heart.

When I woke up the next day, a servant knocked on the door. It was a stranger who said to me, "Emperor Han, I am the newly assigned maid Cuicui. I will be responsible for your food and daily life. What I am best at is making sweet and sour pork knuckle..."

Just like a secret code, the only people in this world who know that I like to eat this are Gu Sinian and Huo Yan.

"Are you Huo Yan's man?"

But Cuicui shook her head: "No, it was Palace Master Sinian who sent me here."

I was stunned for a moment. I was so stupid. Gu Sinian obviously knew it, but I still hoped that she was the person sent by Huo Yan to keep in touch with me.

After all, I can't let go.

He sighed and said, "Cui Cui, I won't eat this dish anymore. What else do you have that you're good at?"

Cuicui tilted her head: "There are many more, as long as the Cold Emperor likes to eat them."

She is not very old and looks like she is in her teens.

"Where are you from? Teenagers are school age. Will you still be able to study after being my maid?"

"Han Palace has a special course to train us to become qualified royal butlers and royal servants. My biggest goal is to become the most powerful butler in Han Palace."

I took the face towel from her hand with a smile and said, "You are still young and beautiful, and you can have other better dreams. You might as well think about it more."

When I talked about my dreams, I was stunned myself.

What is my dream? I once thought I wanted to be a qualified doctor.

But now I have gone the other way...
