Ji Zhao glanced sideways at the man beside her and nodded obediently.

...

“20 years ago, there was an internal strife in the imperial palace of Great Jing. The late emperor, who was over 50 years old, experienced an assassination attempt by criminals. Later, after the treatment of the imperial physician, although Emperor Jingyuan B barely survived, he was paralyzed because of this.”

“The late emperor has eight sons and a daughter. His daughter is Princess Wushuang, and his eldest son is the current Emperor Jingyuan. Meanwhile, the youngest son that the late emperor doted on the most died of illness when he was young…” Shen Yao originally thought that he no longer cared about the past, but now that he had torn open the wound again, his heart still hurt uncontrollably.

It turned out that he had never forgotten the pain that was imprinted in the depths of his heart.

Sensing the fluctuations in his emotions, Ji Zhao gently held his hand and silently comforted him.

“The eight princes of the late emperor were all born noble, especially Emperor Jingyuan, who was given birth to by the Empress. Only the youngest son was given birth to by the Empress’s maidservant. The reason was that Emperor Jingyuan was drunk once and treated the maidservant as the Empress…” Shen Yao smiled bitterly and said, “Later on, the maidservant was pregnant. In order to show her magnanimity and benevolence, the Empress not only cared for the maidservant, but she even remembered the prince of the maidservant. She raised him herself and gave him a proper title of linear descent.”

“The accident happened when the eighth prince was three years old. When the eighth prince was three years old, the maidservant actually had evil intentions and wanted to assassinate Emperor Jingyuan. Later, she was discovered and died after swallowing gold. As for the eighth prince, no one knows where he went.”

…..

“No one knew that all of this was the scheme of the generous and benevolent empress. After that, Empress Jingyuan threw the eighth prince into a secret organization and trained the young eighth prince into a killer. Until an accident happened to the eighth prince. When he opened his eyes again, he had already become a crippled man from a remote mountain village. This man’s name was Shen Yao…”

Before the story could finish, Ji Zhao was already dumbfounded.

After saying the secret that had been hidden in the depths of his heart for many years, Shen Yao fell silent.

He looked at the silent Ji Zhao with mixed feelings.

He thought he would see shock, fear, or other emotions on her face.

But he didn’t.

Other than her slightly stunned expression, her expression was exceptionally calm.

“Zhaozhao, aren’t you… afraid?” Shen Yao spoke slowly. He subconsciously wanted to let go of her hand, but Ji Zhao held it tightly.

“Why should 1 be afraid?” Ji Zhao looked up at him with bright eyes and a faint smile. “When we met, got to know each other, and loved each other, you were Shen Yao. Moreover, from the beginning to the end, 1 only wanted to be with you for the rest of my life. As long as you’re you, that’s enough.”

“Zhaozhao, thank you…” Shen Yao hugged her and refused to let go for a long time.

After telling Ji Zhao the biggest secret in his heart, Shen Yao felt much more relaxed.

“The situation in the capital is important to you, isn’t it?” Ji Zhao grabbed his arm nervously and asked with a frown, “You want to return to the capital?”

Shen Yao shook his head. “Prince Xian has guessed my identity…”

“Prince Xian?” Ji Zhao was even more confused. “What does this have to do with Prince Xian?”

“Zhaozhao, do you still remember the man you saved back at Mingtang Mountain?” Looking at her dazed expression, Shen Yao silently curled his lips and sighed. “That person was Prince Xian.”

It was precisely because Ji Zhao had saved Prince Xian that Shen Yao took the opportunity to reveal his identity to him.

At first, Prince Xian was skeptical. After all, everyone knew that the eighth prince had passed away.

However, after Shen Yao repeatedly listed some evidence, Prince Xian was also moved.

“So Master’s appearance wasn’t a coincidence?” Ji Zhao suddenly remembered something and said in surprise, “The reason why Master treated your leg was because of Prince Xian’s instructions?”

“My Zhaozhao is so smart.” Shen Yao smiled and tapped the tip of her nose.

“Shen Yao, do you want to go back to the capital and take back everything that belongs to you?” Ji Zhao asked nervously.

Once Shen Yao recovered his identity as the eighth prince, he would be a member of the royal family.

And she was probably not good enough for him.

“Don’t let your imagination run wild.” Shen Yao poked her forehead, then explained softly, “The current me is only Shen Yao from Shanghe Village. I’ve never thought of becoming a superior. It’s just that 1 can’t watch the Great Jing Dynasty go from prosperity to decline step by step.”

“Then you…”

“I want to help Prince Xian.” Shen Yao slowly raised his eyes and said firmly, “These days, I’ve been secretly exchanging letters with Prince Xian. I admire his horizons and his breadth of mind!”

It was not only because Prince Xian was his seventh brother. More importantly, as a king, Prince Xian would be a benevolent ruler.

“I want to assist a wise ruler and become the Grand Secretary.” Shen Yao’s tone became more and more determined. “1 must win the championship in the Spring Quarter Examination next year!”

Looking at Shen Yao, who was so ambitious, Ji Zhao smiled.

This man, this ambitious man, was her husband.

And the man she loved.

She would accompany him and work hard to create the world they wanted!

“Okay!” Ji Zhao smiled and nodded. “Shen Yao, I’ll accompany you. I’ll accompany you down the road!”

At that time, in the capital, at Prince Xian’s residence.

After Zhao Tuo finished reading the letter sent by Shen Yao, he felt emotional.

He smiled and handed the letter to the flickering candlelight, watching it burn to ashes.

In fact, he had never thought of getting his hands on that position. It was just that the current Empress was too arrogant.

The empress had never only wanted to be an empress.

That woman had a ruthless and vicious heart.

She was determined to get that position.

However, she had forgotten that this world, Great ling’s empire, would always be the Zhao family’s empire!

Emperor Jingyuan was seriously ill, and the empress served him every day.

The relationship between the empress and the emperor touched countless people in the capital.

However, these touched people did not know that the reason why Emperor Jingyuan had fallen so ill all these years was because of this virtuous empress.

Near the end of the year, Noble Consort Sun was suddenly exposed to have an affair with her personal guard. The Empress locked her up in the Execution Bureau at lightning speed. What was even more terrifying was that Noble Consort Sun actually had a miscarriage in the prison!

As soon as the news spread, it shocked the entire capital!

Everyone in the capital knew that Emperor Jingyuan doted on Noble Consort Sun very much. When Noble Consort Sun got pregnant, he even thought of abolishing the Crown Prince’s title!

Later on, countless old ministers tried their best to dissuade him, which made Emperor Jingyuan give up on the idea of abolishing the Crown Prince. However, as the Sun Family became more and more powerful in the imperial court, the ministers who supported the Crown Prince’s line finally couldn’t hold it in anymore!

That was why the Sun family experienced continuous troubles. Even Elder Sun was reprimanded by Emperor Jingyuan and locked in the residence to reflect!

However, the Sun Family was never worried. As long as Noble Consort Sun was still favored, they would be able to restore their former glory sooner or later. But who would have thought that Emperor Jingyuan would be sick, and his condition was so dangerous!
