Qin Youyuan roared, and the room was quiet for a while, except for Qin Youyuan's gasping for anger.

Xie Roujia knelt on the cold floor, raised her face and asked Qin Youyuan: "Then do you know why he married a wife? You know him so well that you believe he won't marry a wife, so you never thought about why he married a wife?"

Qin Youyuan turned his face away, he was unwilling to face this problem.

Xie Roujia smiled wryly, and talked about what happened back then.About the past where the father and son almost broke up before Zhou Yuyun went to Qin Youyuan for the last time.

These were what Zhou's father told her before she married into Zhou's family.Although he was categorical on the surface, this father was obviously not really as cold as he appeared on the surface.He told Xie Roujia these things because he wanted Xie Roujia to choose for herself, and whether she would regret it.After all, he didn't want his son to live with a resentful wife after going through so much pain.For Zhou Yuyun, this will be a huge nightmare.

"His original words were that no matter if he loses his name or wins his life, he will never regret it." When Xie Roujia said this, she finally burst into tears.

Qin Youyuan couldn't help but took a step back. He thought of Zhou Yuyun's appearance when he came to question him for the last time that night, feeling relaxed and desperate.

"The reason why you blame him is because you think that he loves you more than you love him. Do you still feel that way now?" Xie Roujia had tears in her eyes.

"You may not understand how determined it is for a person from a family to betray the family. He is willing to be an unfaithful and disloyal person for you, and his life's beliefs will be destroyed by this."

"You have had a hard time these years, but how has he ever been better? During the two years when we just got married, he suffered from insomnia all night, and his hair grew gorgeously. It was only through dyeing that no one noticed."

Qin Youyuan sat down on the chair: "How could this happen? How could this happen?"

"He can't let His Majesty go, but even thinking about it secretly, he feels ashamed of his family. Although no one has ever blamed him, he refuses to let go of himself. He is such a person." Xie Roujia said in a daze: "A soft heart, who He was also reluctant to be hurt. So in the end all the injuries were on him."

"He has been walking along that road full of knife points for ten years, and he finally got out of a little smooth road. Now you tell him that everything is just a misunderstanding, what do you ask him to do? You tell him to let down the one he once loved. Or let him bear the crime of abandoning his wife and son, treason and ruin the country, and then reconcile with you?"

"Then what should I do? If I don't tell him, what should I do?" Qin Youyuan looked anxious like a child.

"If Your Majesty has hatred in your heart, then come to me. It was I who took advantage of people's dangers and seized their love, which led to today's situation." Xie Roujia bowed her head deeply: "I would like to die to appease Your Majesty's anger. I just beg Your Majesty Let him go, don't force him to choose again."

"He used to protect His Majesty's well-being when he was young, and later he made a promise to His Majesty and bet everything for His Majesty. From the beginning to the end, he owed His Majesty nothing."

Xie Roujia bowed her head and knelt on the ground, until her servant girl came in and hurriedly helped her up from the ground, did she realize that His Majesty had left.

The servant girl looked at the tears on Xie Roujia's face and panicked: "Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

Another maid asked in a low voice, "Do you want to invite Master back?"

Xie Roujia came back to her senses, and said sharply: "You are not allowed to go. No one is allowed to say anything about today's visitor!"

The maids bowed their heads and said yes.

Xie Roujia was helped back into the room, and waved her hands: "You all go down, close the door, and let me lie down for a while."

After the maids retreated, Xie Roujia walked to the dressing table and took out a jewelry box.This box is exquisite in structure and very gorgeous. It was Xie Roujia's dowry brought from Xie's family back then. Xie Roujia liked it very much and kept it with her all the time.

Xie Roujia opened the box, and lightly brushed a pearl inlaid on the inner wall of the box, a very small hidden compartment appeared in the corner of the box, which contained a very small jasper bottle.

Xie Roujia stared blankly at the jasper bottle, and murmured: "Not yet. Wait."

Wait a minute, if he died when Brother Yun just returned to Beijing to take up his post, he would definitely attract criticism, and someone who knew the past would think of His Majesty's attitude towards Brother Yun and cause trouble for him .Wait a little longer.As long as he waited another year and a half, once he died, His Majesty's resentment in his heart would subside, and he would not embarrass brother Yun anymore.At that time, he might be able to return to Jiangnan and teach happily again.

Brother Yun, I said I never regret marrying you, but I lied.I regretted it a long time ago, when you couldn't sleep all night, when you gave birth to your first gray hair, I regretted it.

I once deeply hated him for hurting you, and firmly believed that I would treat you well, but I never thought that my existence was also a knife in your heart.If I die of illness in an ordinary way, you don't have to feel guilty anymore.

……

Zhou Yuyun didn't believe Qin Youyuan's original words that as long as he stayed as an official, he had always been cautious, but he was still restless, waiting for Qin Youyuan's next move.

But this time it seems that he has the heart of a villain.Time passed day by day and everything was normal.He went to the Hanlin Academy to study every day.The emperor summoned him every now and then, and no longer mentioned those past events, but instead asked him to give lectures.The emperor began to call him Zhou Qing, and began to call himself Zhen.It's as if they are really a pair of pure monarchs and ministers, one is a king who knows people well, and the other is a minister who swears to serve the country to the death.

Zhou Yuyun gradually felt relieved.He had never been a person who was good at speculating on the dark, he began to believe that perhaps Qin Youyuan had listened to his words, and finally thought about it.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and stopped guarding against Qin Youyuan all day long, and began to focus on his business and family.

Putting aside his concerns about Qin Youyuan, he really likes the job at the Imperial Academy.The only thing that worries him now is that since returning to the capital, Roujia's health has not been very good, and he has to ask for a doctor every now and then, but the doctor can't explain why, only that his body is too weak and needs to be taken care of. .

Zhou Yuyun once suspected that it was because of the water and soil in the capital. After all, during those years when Xie Roujia was in the south of the Yangtze River, although her body was weaker, she was always considered healthy, and she was not as sick as she is now.

Seeing Xie Roujia's pale face day by day, Zhou Yuyun was worried, and urged Xie Roujia to go back to Jiangnan to recuperate many times.

But Xie Roujia refused to listen: "Have you forgotten, my lord? I also grew up in the capital. How can there be people who are not acclimatized to the place where they grew up?"

Later, the doctor specially invited from the south of the Yangtze River also said that it had nothing to do with the water and soil of the capital, so Zhou Yuyun was relieved. He couldn't find out the specific cause of the disease, so he had to take care of Xie Roujia with more care, food, clothing, housing and transportation, and careful maintenance.Even so, Xie Roujia was getting weaker day by day.
