Chapter 133 Sense of Boundary
Chapter 133 Sense of Boundary
And he could only stand helplessly on the city gate tower, watching the sedan chair go farther and farther away. At that moment, he felt extremely small and powerless. He was just a pawn in the palace and could not control his own destiny. Wu Yue saw it more clearly than him, so she chose to leave, hoping that he could survive.
Later, he received a long letter from Wu Yue, delivered by her personal maid. In the letter, Wu Yue advised him to forget the past, live a good life, and experience the happiness that she had never enjoyed. This letter became his spiritual comfort, but also became a pain that he could never erase from his heart.
Zhao Yuan began to practice Kung Fu and quietly strengthen himself from then on. Every morning, he would get up early and go to the yard to practice boxing and swordsmanship. Every punch was accompanied by a sharp sound of wind, and every sword flashed with cold light. His sweat soaked his clothes, but he didn't care and continued to practice. He knew that only by becoming stronger could he do what he wanted to do without being controlled by others and unable to fight back.
Before Lin Yan appeared, he lived a numb life. He didn't care about his fate of being a wife-killer and just lived his life freely.
But when Lin Yan quietly walked into his world, everything changed. Her unyielding and stubbornness were like a long-lost ray of sunshine that illuminated his stagnant life.
He didn't know when, Lin Yan had quietly entered his empty heart, and could never be erased. Her playfulness, her stubbornness, her little movements were smart and full of vitality, warming his cold heart like sunshine.
However, fate is always full of drama. Just when Zhao Yuan thought he could stay with Lin Yan forever, Wu Yue suddenly came back to visit her parents, breaking their peaceful life. The memories of the past came flooding back like a tide, making Zhao Yuan fall into painful memories.
"You're right. But some things cannot be changed. I have now walked out of the whirlpool of that relationship. I can't say that I have completely forgotten her, but I promise you that I will never let you down." Zhao Yuan looked at Lin Yan with a firm and serious look. He knew that he had to let her understand his feelings.
When Lin Yan heard Zhao Yuan's words, her heart was slightly moved, but her face still had a hint of sadness. She sighed softly and said, "Oh..."
Zhao Yuan held Lin Yan's hand tightly, his eyes full of tenderness and love. He said softly: "Ayan, look into my eyes and believe me. I will prove my promise with my actions."
Lin Yan nodded. Although she still cared a lot, she was willing to give each other a chance and wait and see.
Zhao Yuan grabbed Lin Yan's hand and said, "You may hear a lot of stories about Wu Yue and me from other people. What happened in the past cannot be changed. I really don't have any other thoughts about her now. I just treat her as my cousin. I just heard that her life over there is not going too well. It is inevitable to give her some help. I believe you can understand.
Lin Yan pulled Zhao Yuan's hand away, picked up the puppy at her feet, and walked towards the doghouse.
Zhao Yuan felt a sense of powerlessness coming over him. Seeing A Yan, who had finally opened her heart to him, retreating back into his heart again, Zhao Yuan had an urge to slap himself, and felt vaguely uneasy.
Zhao Yuan followed Lin Yan and hugged her tightly from behind: "Ayan, I can't change what happened in the past. In the palace, my position was very emotional. I was excluded and calculated. Although Wu Yue is younger than me, she is more open-minded than me. She is optimistic and kind. She often enlightened me and helped me get out of that gray time. Falling in love for the first time is not something I can control.
Fate plays tricks on us. For the sake of the diplomatic relations between the two countries and the well-being of the people of the two countries, we can only make sacrifices. I didn’t want to give up and did a lot of crazy things until I met you. ”
"Are you confessing to me? Are you telling me how pure and loyal the feelings between you two are?"
"I'm explaining this to you, and I hope you understand." It was the first time that Zhao Yuan explained to a woman. If it were someone else, he would never be so humble.
Lin Yan touched Zhao Yuan's face and sighed: "If Wu Yue comes back this time and doesn't want to leave again and wants to reconcile with you, what are you going to do?"
"This, we are no longer the same as before. If she needs my help, I will definitely help her. But, I promise, I will keep my distance from her."
"Your words are enough!" Lin Yan said. What people fear most is having no sense of boundaries. Once you lose your sense of boundaries, anything can happen. At that time, you may become a joke in the whole capital.
Mu Xueli didn't know whether to be happy or not. "Hahaha. It turns out that Lin Yan is just a stand-in. She's about to fall out of favor. I thought she was so capable?"
Today, she went to the palace of Concubine De to pay her respects and heard the maids' discussions. She had never thought that Zhao Yuan had such a romantic affair. When she died in her previous life, she had never heard of Wu Yue. She had never thought that Zhao Yuan had hidden such a deep secret.
Some of them are looking forward to Wu Yue's quick return to Beijing, and they are among the few people who want to meet Wu Yue.
In the first few years, the couple loved each other and Wu Yue lived a happy life. But the good times did not last long. One time, the foreign prince went out hunting and encountered a rainstorm. He was crushed to death by a huge rock rolling down the mountain. Because he had no children, Wu Yue's life in the backyard of the palace became worse and worse.
This time, King Heng had put in a lot of effort to bring Wu Yue back. But Zhao Yuan didn't know this, and he was very confused.
------------
Wu Yue knelt at the feet of Concubine De and burst into tears.
"I'm sorry for putting you through this." Concubine De patted Wu Yue on the back. Ke'er helped Wu Yue up and arranged for her to sit down. "Stay in the palace for the time being and stay with me for a few days."
"Okay." Wu Yue wiped her tears and answered obediently.
Zhao Yuan and Mu Xueli arrived at the palace of Concubine De one after another. He originally wanted to bring Lin Yan to the palace to take a look, but after thinking about it, he finally brought only Mu Xueli.
Empress Defei introduced her personally and specifically emphasized that Mu Xueli was not only pregnant, but also very filial, and often came to the palace to accompany her and relieve her boredom. She was a rare good daughter-in-law.
Mu Xueli smiled proudly. Because she was pregnant, Zhao Yuan was very considerate and took care of her, which made Wu Yue feel very uncomfortable.
The reason why Concubine De specifically emphasized and praised Mu Xueli was mainly to prevent Wu Yue from having some inappropriate thoughts.
Looking at Wu Yue's expression, she just shook her head in her heart. She knew the situation of the Rui Palace over the years. She finally had a successor, and as long as there was no harm to her son, she planned to turn a blind eye.
