Chapter 70: The Truth Emerges but Suffers
Seeing that he couldn't follow his own path, Guishuang immediately became angry and grabbed Shen Qiyuan's hand to prevent him from leaving.
"If you want to check the old days, where is it so easy? If you could really find out, you wouldn't have come to the feast. Since the clues in hand are interrupted, why pretend to be free? It's really hypocritical. β
When Shen Qiyuan saw her like this, he only felt ridiculous: "Since Your Highness thinks I'm hypocritical, why do you have to come to Baba to find me again?" β
Guishuang has been arrogant all her life, and she has never met someone like Shen Qiyuan who does not give her face at all, as much love as there is hatred in her heart, but when it is intertwined, it is very unforgettable. She knew in her heart that Shen Qiyuan didn't like her, even if she used various means to get Shen Qiyuan to marry her back to the Shen family, she would not treat herself sincerely in the future.
But Guishuang is just not reconciled. Unwilling to get Shen Qiyuan, unwilling to let Shen Qiyuan escape so easily. She just wants to ruin the marriage between Shen Qiyuan and Shen Anyan, just to make Shen Qiyuan unhappy, even if she is in this kind of lose-lose attitude, she can't turn back.
Guishuang finally smiled resentfully: "Not to mention whether you can really find out the cause of Marquis Shen's death, even if you really find out, it is really difficult to take revenge with your strength, you better remember that you don't have an official position now, just a rich kid." There's nothing great about it. β
Guishuang took a step back and finally gave up pestering Shen Qiyuan: "It's best for you to think about it yourself, marrying me will never be able to avenge the Shen family." Come back to me when you're done, and I'll be able to testify against me when you're done, which is much better than your own wasted efforts there. β
Shen Qiyuan only glanced at Guishuang when he heard this, and then turned his head and left.
However, Shen Qiyuan, who finally came out of the Zhenyu Tower, was not easy, because he knew that Guishuang could be so sure that he could not have enough evidence to prove the true cause of Shen Houye's death, and it was not a matter of being harmed by the meticulous work, and there was a reason.
This matter is deep and wide-ranging, and it cannot be uprooted overnight, nor is it something that the current Shen Qiyuan can easily complete by himself.
The reason why he rejected Guishuang so categorically was just because he no longer wanted Guishuang to be involved in his marriage with Shen Anyan. Whether it is Shen Qiyuan or Shen Anyan, they have paid too much for this marriage.
Shen Qiyuan was willing to give up his current official name and wait for the transfer at home for the time being, while Shen Anyan was even more involved in fighting against Guishuang, and implicated Bian Niang, who was in love with half a mother, and finally in order to rescue Bian Niang, he almost lost his innocence and his life was in danger.
They all worked so hard to get together, and if they were to make peace with Guishan at this time, because of this incident, they agreed to make peace with Guishan. Then all the previous efforts have lost all meaning, like a joke.
Shen Qiyuan sometimes feels that he and Guishuang are indeed similar in some aspects, and this similarity is not only reflected in the struggle between the battle formations in the art of war, but also in a kind of stubbornness that as long as this matter is chosen, even if thousands of people stop me, I will not turn back.
Even though he will indeed give up a lot, even if it is indeed a lot more difficult, these difficulties and trade-offs make the relationship between him and Shen Anyan even more precious. Feelings themselves are meant to be paid, aren't they? It's ridiculous to regret and be upset because of this.
Although Shen Qiyuan thought so, this matter was related to Shen Anyan's consistent wish, and he felt that he should always tell Shen Anyan and let her make a decision together.
Of course, even though he said that, in fact, Shen Qiyuan was really afraid that Shen Anyan would choose the former between the truth of Shen Houye's death and being with him to overcome omnipotence. If you don't discuss it with Shen Anyan today, what should Shen Anyan do if she knows about it in the future and regrets it.
Shen Qiyuan is so anxious and entangled, in fact, it is just another kind of trapped love. He really cares about Shen Anyan, so he is not willing to leave anything that may cause a rift in the relationship between him and Shen Anyan, and would rather spread it out now and make it clear.
When Shen Qiyuan returned to the Shen Mansion, he did not directly meet his own Wuning Pavilion, but first transferred to Shen Anyan's Bibo Courtyard.
Shen Anyan was counting the number of charcoal hoarded in Zhuangzi, and when he looked up and saw Shen Qiyuan coming, he put down the account book and smiled at Shen Qiyuan.
Shen Anyan always seems to have a strange magic, which makes everyone who sees her feel that it is very relaxed and happy to be with her. In fact, Shen Anyan is not the kind of person who is completely gentle and harmless, nor is she a naΓ―ve little girl who is ignorant of the world, but just looking at her, I feel that the pickles of the world are helpless and gone with the wind.
She is a whole spring day, an April day on earth.
Thinking like this, Shen Qiyuan was particularly worried that Shen Anyan would say something that would make him try to deal with Guishuang for the truth about the cause of Shen Houye's death. He knew that he couldn't refuse Shen Anyan, and he could understand Shen Anyan's obsession with the cause of his father's death, but he accepted it and understood it, but he couldn't not be sad.
He cared so much about Shen Anyan that if Shen Anyan pushed him out, the pain would be far more profound than Guishuang's entanglement, or other people's incomprehension.
But with this mentality, he finally had to talk to Shen Anyan about it.
And Shen Anyan also seemed to sense Shen Qiyuan's uneasiness, and took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong, it's not good to look like this?" β
Shen Qiyuan smiled faintly: "Just now Guishuang sent a post to let me go to Zhenyulou for a gathering." β
Shen Anyan nodded, thinking that it was just an ordinary entanglement, after all, they had all seen a lot of Guishuang's ghost.
"She said that she had a secret in her hand about the real reason for Shen Houye's death, and if she wanted to get information from her, she had to marry her."
Shen Anyan nodded in a daze, obviously not expecting this to happen at all. She has also been searching for the truth about the cause of her father's death, but because this matter has generally been closed, if she searches from the beginning, it will be tantamount to fighting against His Majesty's Holy Judgment and questioning the Holy Judgment.
Therefore, even if there are occasionally a few people who know some inside information, they are not willing to confide it easily, because they are afraid of their own retaliation, and they also feel that there is really little hope of overturning the case, so they do not always have more people to escape and fewer people to face directly.
Even though Shen Anyan was helpless, he had no choice but to decide to figure it out slowly, but at this moment, the truth in his heart was in front of him, which made people feel how not to be moved.
Those things that she has been searching for a long time, as long as she is willing to speak, Shen Qiyuan will be satisfied. She knew, they all knew.
