Chapter 187 The dust has settled and they are divorced
"Cousin, stop talking!" Seeing that Ji Feng was about to tell her about saving Xiao Chenyan, Shen Ruzhou hurriedly stopped him.
She must not tell Xiao Chenyan that she had a life-saving grace, otherwise the emperor might change his mind.
As everyone knows, Mu Wanrong is Xiao Chenyan's savior, but no one knows that Mu Wanrong is Mu Wanqing's sister and the illegitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
In the eyes of outsiders, Mu Wanrong was just a powerless orphan. The reason why the emperor agreed to let Mu Wanrong and her, the royal concubine, enter the house on the same day was because she had a savior for Xiao Chenyan.
The grace of saving a life is a very heavy kindness, and they are the royal family. They want face, so they must repay their benefactors well and show them dignity. Otherwise, how will the people treat them?
If it comes out that she is Xiao Chenyan's lifesaver and Xiao Chenyan reconciles with her, public opinion will definitely point to the royal family, and the emperor will not allow such a thing to happen.
Moreover, she didn't want Xiao Chenyan to know about this matter. In her previous life, she had always buried this matter in her heart and never revealed it to her mouth. She just didn't want him to feel indebted and grateful to like her. She wanted his true feelings.
In this life, she doesn't want to be entangled with Xiao Chenyan anymore, let alone talk about it.
"No matter what he does to Mu Wanrong, it's none of my business. I just want to make peace with him today. Let's break up and have nothing to do with him anymore."
Ji Feng met Shen Ruzhou's eyes and truly felt that Shen Ruzhou was different from before. He was a little relieved, but couldn't help but feel distressed and pursed his lips in silence.
Forget it, if she doesn't want him to speak justice for her, then he won't. He just spurns Xiao Chenyan. Both faces are life-savers. Why is one holding her like a star in the sky, while the other is trampling on her like grass on the ground?
The imperial concubine was so angry that her chest hurt. Xiao Chenyan had failed Shen Ruzhou too much!
With an angry look on her face, she pointed at Xiao Chenyan and angrily rebuked: "King Wu Cheng, you spoiled your concubine and destroyed your wife, where did you put the royal family's face? You are not allowed to reconcile with Ruzhou, otherwise, even that Mu Wanrong will be divorced too! "
"Your concubine's words are wrong," the queen said quietly, glancing at the concubine coldly, "Mu Wanrong is the savior of King Wu Cheng, and he has no fault, how can he abandon her at will?"
The imperial concubine sneered, "Then Ru Zhou can give up at will?"
The queen said: "Heli was proposed by Shen Ruzhou and it was her own wish."
The imperial concubine looked indignant, "She was forced to do so!"
"No matter what, if they don't think about it themselves, there is no need to tie them together. After all, it is not sweet to force them." The queen looked at Emperor Yong'an and said, "Your Majesty, let them be allowed."
"Father!" Before Emperor Yong'an could express his stance, Xiao Chenyan spoke first, with a sincere look on his handsome face, and said seriously: "Father, I don't want to make peace with you!"
Shen Ruzhou's face looked ugly. It was already this time. Why was Xiao Chenyan causing trouble?Didn't he most want to be reconciled with her in his previous life? Why is he so stubborn now?
The queen's voice was calm and without any fluctuation: "King Wu Cheng, since you have no feelings for the princess, why bother with her anymore?"
"That's not the case." Xiao Chenyan's eyes passed over Shen Ruzhou's cold face, and his thin lips pursed tighter, "I have a princess in my heart... and am willing to get along well with the princess. Please take back my life."
The imperial concubine snorted coldly, this Xiao Chenyan still has some conscience!
Mu Wanqing looked at this situation, her elegant face showed no trace of emotion, but her fingers tightened unconsciously, and she felt uneasy in her heart.
Although she didn't want them to reconcile, which would miss their overall situation, but looking at Xiao Chenyan's unwillingness to reconcile, could it be that he really cared about Shen Ruzhou?
After only a few days of marriage, his heart has changed. Is it possible?
"I don't want to!" Shen Ruzhou's clear and watery eyes were full of coldness. She didn't believe Xiao Chenyan's lies. She spent many years of tenderness in her previous life and almost died for him many times, but she still couldn't make him like him. Even more so in this life. How could he still fall in love with her despite being against him at every turn?
Absolutely impossible!He was so unwilling to make peace, so he must have some other agenda. She looked straight at Emperor Yong'an and begged again: "Father, please allow us to make peace!"
Xiao Chenyan looked at Shen Ruzhou with sinister eyes and said angrily, "Shen Ruzhou!"
Shen Ruzhou ignored Xiao Chenyan's cannibalistic look and raised his voice.
"Father, Ruzhou has something to report. Yesterday, Ruzhou suddenly fainted when he left the palace. After checking his own pulse, he found that he was unable to have children. The wife cannot have children. Ruzhou is really not worthy of being the princess. You still allowed us to marry her. Leave!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Ji Feng was stunned. What, Shen Ruzhou couldn't have children?
Emperor Yong'an was surprised and said: "Princess Wucheng, are you telling the truth?"
Shen Ruzhou nodded affirmatively.
Xiao Chenyan suddenly became so angry that his handsome face tightened and he gritted his teeth, "Shen Ruzhou, you can even tell such a lie!"
The queen didn't believe it either. She looked at Shen Ruzhou suspiciously and said, "Why are you suddenly infertile? Are you talking nonsense?"
Shen Ruzhou's pretty little face looked calm, "How dare Ruzhou deceive you? It's absolutely true."
The imperial concubine said: "Go and ask an imperial doctor to come over and see if it is true."
This matter is not a trivial matter. If Shen Ruzhou is really sterile, she must get divorced. She is afraid that there is no way to recover.
Shen Ruzhou looked calm and did not stop.
After a while, the imperial doctor hurried over.
Shen Ruzhou calmly asked the imperial doctor to take his pulse.
The imperial doctor put his fingers on Shen Ruzhou's wrist and was silent for a while. His expression became more and more solemn. Finally he stood up and cupped his hands to Emperor Yong'an and said: "Your Majesty, the princess is indeed deficient in both energy and blood. Her body is severely cold and her bodyguard is not strong. It will be difficult for her to become pregnant in the future. .”
The imperial concubine didn't want to believe that this was true, and said anxiously: "Did you make a mistake in your diagnosis?"
The imperial doctor nodded carefully.
Xiao Chenyan was stunned, his expression was indescribable, his gloomy eyes were fixed on Shen Ruzhou's face, and he didn't move away for a long time, wondering what he was thinking about.
Ji Feng's brows were also tightly knitted. No wonder she was willing to reconcile. It turned out that she was still thinking about Xiao Chenyan's heirs after learning that she could not have children. She was so caring for Xiao Chenyan, but Xiao Chenyan did not accept her feelings...
With this incident, Emperor Yong'an could speak happily.
"In this case, I will allow you to reconcile. Ruzhou, you should take a good rest. Although your marriage with King Wu Cheng is not satisfactory, even if you separate, you should be more dignified."
Shen Ruzhou was overjoyed and the dust settled, "Yes, Ruzhou understands."
Xiao Chenyan's face tightened, and there was a hint of urgency in his long eyes, "Father, this marriage was given by the Emperor. If you want to reconcile, you must also ask the Emperor about his intentions..."
"That's enough!" Emperor Yong'an's face sank, and he stared at Xiao Chenyan, "Your imperial grandfather gave you the marriage in the hope that you two would get along lovingly, but you have made the family uneasy, and you can't even manage a concubine! "
"This matter has been settled, there is no need to discuss it further——"
