69 Surrender to a great responsibility

Yu Jinfan has been well-behaved since he was a child, and everything he says and does, even if he doesn't like it anymore, he also follows the wishes of the Empress Dowager Tong. However, today, she disregarded the etiquette and broke into the palace of the Empress Dowager Tong without waiting for the summons, not only the palace people, but also the Empress Dowager Tong, who bumped into her head-on, was also taken aback, and couldn't help but be cold: "The king is like this, is there a loss of royal respect?" ”

Again and again, again and again, but what did she get? Yu Jinfan looked at the domineering mother concubine in front of him, and became deeply tired: "Mother concubine is like this, but she takes great pains!" ”

"Presumptuous!" Empress Dowager Tong was furious, and the people in the palace knelt down in a panic, and they all buried their heads and did not dare to raise their heads.

If it was in the past, Yu Jinfan would have admitted his mistake long ago. But now, she ignored the Empress Dowager Tong and was stubborn: "I don't accept concubines, never." ”

"You know what you're talking about! The king of the Southern Chu Kingdom! ”

"Lonely, clear!"

The mother and daughter looked at each other angrily, the atmosphere was tense, and the people in the surrounding palace were terrified, and they didn't dare to breathe.

Shen Rui stood inside the door, she didn't know how long she had been standing, but she could hear the conversation outside the door. Touching the tears from the corners of her eyes, she reached out and was about to push open the door-

"It's so clear, this palace is asking you today, is it important to be happy in this world, or is it important for your children's private affairs?"

Shen Rui paused, motionless.

"The war in the northwest is uneven, the people on the border are not happy, the forces of the imperial court are ready to move, and the people are worried every day, what about you, the king of the country? Don't worry about the worries of the world, ignore the affairs of the country... Where can there be no home, and what is the relationship of being homeless? ”

Faced with some accusations, Yu Jinfan turned his gaze speechlessly, and the person who was awe-inspiring a moment ago felt guilty at the moment.

Empress Dowager Tong sneered and stepped closer to her: "Wang, do you know how many lives you will lose if you don't accept a concubine!" ”

Yu Jinfan was forced to have no way out, with his back to the door, looking defeated. She should have expected all this when she inherited the throne, and the king... She is the king of Southern Chu. "Haha, others, others, I can only do this life for others?" Yu Jinfan raised his head and laughed, his eyes were red with laughter, but he stubbornly refused to cry.

Empress Dowager Tong looked at her like this, and was very distressed, but she couldn't do anything. As she said to Huanxiang, she wished that she had not given birth to her and suffered from this.

"Smack-"

The closed palace door was forcefully opened from the inside, and Yu Jinfan looked at it, and saw the figure he was looking for at a glance. "Nanmu..."She murmured, and the tears she held back saw her again, inexplicably uncontrollable, rushing to surge.

Shen Rui smiled softly at her, stepped forward, and touched her face distressedly. "I'm not going to embarrass you." She said. Turning around, he looked at the hostile eyes of the Empress Dowager Tong, and admitted defeat: "I agree with Concubine Wang." Compared with being unable to bear the so-called status of other women, she couldn't bear Yu Jinfan to fall into a dilemma.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Yu Jinfan said, dragging her over, full of shock.

Shen Rui shrugged her shoulders and smiled at her pretending to be indifferent: "Come on, I won't mind." ”

Yu Jinfan's eyes condensed into ice: "You say it again." ”

The smile on Shen Rui's face froze, forced to squeeze out a smile, and looked at her deeply: "Yu Jinfan, take a concubine, I agreed." ”

Yu Jinfan looked at her with a glance at a stranger, and after a while, she mechanically turned to the deep-eyed Empress Dowager Tong, and pulled the corners of her mouth sarcastically: "So, is the concubine satisfied?" With that, he shook off Shen Rui's hand fiercely, ignored her call, and strode away.

Shen Rui couldn't stop her, and she didn't chase her, she stopped in place and looked at her distant back in a daze, and the tears in her eyes couldn't help but surge down.

"Let's wipe it." Whispering softly, a white handkerchief was handed to her.

Shen Rui didn't answer, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, and looked stubborn with red eyes: "I believe in Yu Jinfan, even if she is a concubine, she will not betray me!" ”

Empress Dowager Tong looked at her, and her heart was not happy after the success, on the contrary, she was heavily depressed. She sighed and approached Shen Rui: "Good boy, I'm sorry. She whispered, wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

Shen Rui thought she was hallucinating, and looked at the gentle Empress Dowager Tong in front of her in surprise, and in addition to being unfamiliar, she also understood her good intentions. Empress Dowager Tong has never been selfish, she is not for herself, not for her bloodline, but for the people of Southern Chu.

Yu Jinfan doesn't understand this truth, and it is precisely because she understands that she will feel even more painful and guilty. She wanted to give Shen Rui too much, but what she could give was too little... Too little...

When Shen Rui found Yu Jinfan, she was locking herself in the study and refused to see anyone.

Seeing her coming, Min He, who was worried about waiting outside, hurriedly greeted her, frowning: "Mrs. Shen, Wang She-"

Shen Rui raised her hand to signal that she didn't need to say much, looked at the closed palace door, and said, "You can retreat first." ”

Min Hyuk looked uncertainly at the palace gate, then at her, and finally bowed his head.

Quiet, the whole palace is quiet. Shen Rui looked up at the sky, the dry branches of the winter trees had already covered with fine leaves, and I believed that after a few days, it would be a lush green.

Winter goes to spring, everything recovers, what about them? Where does it go from here?

Shen Rui sighed, retracted her gaze, and pushed open the door with her fingertips trembling slightly.

The palace is full of luxury, and on the chair admired by tens of thousands of people, Yu Jinfan is sitting there, his slender figure is so petite and lonely. Shen Rui found that she was really sad today, and before she could say anything, tears had already fallen, drop by drop, and she couldn't stop.

"Out-" The words stopped the moment he looked up and saw her tears, Yu Jinfan looked at Shen Rui who was crying into tears, and his heart hurt and hated. She hated her for being too stupid, hating herself for being too incompetent.

Outside the palace gate, Min Hyuk stood guard with his back against the door, his brows furrowed. There was a sound of footsteps in the distance, and she raised her eyebrows, straightened up alertly, and saw Bimachi coming in a hurry.

Bimachi didn't see her at all, and rushed straight to the palace.

Min Hyuk's brows tightened again, and at the same time, his body moved, already blocking in front of her: "The king and the lady are talking to you, don't disturb them." ”

Bicho stopped and glared at her fiercely: "I want to see the master!" ”

"I said she was talking to the king!" Min Hyuk said coldly.

"What else is there to say, the king has lost his master!"

"Bimachi, watch your words and identity!" Min Hyuk shouted, worried that the wall had ears, and anxiously pulled her to the side.

Bi Machi shook off her hand with a sneer: "Yes, the slave status is not as good as the king, but the slave's heart for the master is definitely better than the king, at least, I will definitely not live up to the master!" ”

Min Hyuk's head buzzed, and his already chaotic thoughts turned into a mush, and he said dumbly: "You... What do you say to Mrs. Shen..."

Bimachi realized that he had slipped out, his face turned pale, and he was speechless.

Min Hyuk really understood, no wonder she was like that when she was in the war camp... Everything works. However, her heart was knotted, and she was depressed. Swallowing the sourness in his mouth, Min Hyuk looked at Bi Ding calmly: "The king did not live up to Mrs. Shen, she agreed with Concubine Wang." ”

"Impossible!" Bicho couldn't believe it, she grew up with Shen Rui, how could she not understand her... Got it?

"If you don't believe it, wait for Mrs. Shen to come out and ask her yourself." Min Hyuk said lightly, standing in front of the door with his chest crossed, looking lonely and loyal.

Bimachi stared blankly in the direction of the palace gate, muttering to himself, "Impossible... How is that possible..."

In love, what is impossible.

In the study, the two looked at each other like this, one was unbridled and the other was depressed. Until Shen Rui finished venting, she wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, leaving no drops, smiled with a clean face, and walked to Yu Jinfan.

Yu Jinfan looked at the smile on her face and pursed her lips.

"I can trust you, right?" Shen Rui asked, a pair of beautiful eyes that caught people's heartstrings.

Silent, Yu Jinfan looked at her, and the pain in his eyes was gradually replaced by helplessness: "I always thought you were very smart." After a while, she spoke.

Shen Rui hugged her with open arms, leaned her head on her neck, and gently rubbed the tender flesh on her neck with her nose: "No way, I will be stupid when I meet you." "Because of you, I am willing to be wronged like this, and because it is because of you, I feel that I am not wronged.

Yu Jinfan's eyes were red and he hugged her waist tightly, letting her body cling to herself and feeling her body temperature.

"Yu Jinfan, can you promise me one thing?"

"You say."

"Honestly, we're all honest with each other."

"Okay."

"Promise me one more thing?"

"You say."

"Don't mess with other concubines, otherwise, hum!"

"I won't."

"Also, I'm so beautiful."

"Hmm."

"Less flattery~ I have one more condition!"

“... You said. ”

"Yu Jinfan, let's pacify the country together."
