Chapter 1080 I Don’t Regret
Gu Mengzhen argued convincingly and tried to shirk responsibility.
"Even if I was unfaithful, it was because of Brother Yan Danqing's compulsion."
"They want to take our lives. To protect you, I can only plot a change of dynasty."
"Everything I do is excusable."
Zhuang Shao was filled with indignation.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is kindhearted, and Prince Di Jin is a kindhearted man. They are kind-hearted and will develop a good medicine to treat your illness, even if your crime is extremely serious."
"They saved you out of kindness, how could you bite them back?"
Gu Mengzhen collapsed after hearing this.
"I've hurt him so many times, how could he be so kind as to heal my old ailment?"
"My dear brother, why are you obsessed with the Yan clan?"
"Think carefully, are there any doctors in this world who truly save lives? They're just seeking fame and reputation, they're all hypocrites!"
Zhuang Shao stared, looking extremely serious.
"You are hopeless."
"You've controlled the court for over twenty years, yet you still lack the support of the people. You should reflect on why this is happening, rather than harboring deep resentment and accusing Emperor Yan of being unworthy of his position."
"Don't forget, the world never belonged to you. It wasn't the Yan Clan that took your kingdom away. It was you who plotted rebellion and snatched the Yan Emperor's throne."
"How can you be so self-righteous as a traitor?"
Gu Mengzhen was anxious because he felt wronged.
"How can my dear brother not distinguish right from wrong?"
"The Yan clan harmed your entire family; and I will do my utmost to protect your entire family."
"If it weren't for me..."
Zhuang Shao interrupted him in a harsh tone.
“Without you, my Father would not have gone astray.”
"My people are suffering, and it's all your fault."
Every word pierced his heart. Gu Mengzhen tried his best to suppress his grief and anger and remain rational.
"I know you are not a heartless person. These words were just spoken in anger. I also know that our brotherly love is deep and has not changed in the past decades."
"You may not know the situation."
"Don't worry, my dear brother. I will tell you."
"I originally planned to get rid of the three Ning girls, step back and give up the Dragon Throne, and temporarily submit to the position of emperor, waiting for the right opportunity to make a comeback."
"Alas, God was not on my side. The three Ning girls followed Yu's orders and not only escaped unscathed, but also saved the Ning and Mu clans."
"If she escapes, there will be endless troubles, and I will be in great trouble!"
Zhuang Shao looked as if it had nothing to do with him.
"so what?"
Seeing this, Gu Mengzhen realized that his brother had no intention of rescuing him, and he couldn't help feeling disappointed.
"You really have no intention of saving me from trouble, so I won't make things difficult for you."
"Before I came here, I didn't expect you to save me. I only hoped that you could accompany me during these last few days, as my dear brother."
"Okay?"
Knowing how pitiful he was, Zhuang Shao felt a little sorry for him and made a suggestion.
"If Your Majesty follows the Emperor Yan's heart and never changes his mind, I will submit a petition requesting that we return to our family and fulfill the regret we had in the past."
Gu Mengzhen looked at him expectantly.
"If I agree to change my mind, will you forgive me?"
Zhuang Shao looked indifferent.
"It's just that we've returned to being one family, and we've become brothers. You and I will be as separate as before, and we'll both be well."
Gu Mengzhen was deeply saddened.
"I gave up my vast kingdom, but I didn't even get a single word of your concern?"
"Then what's the point of me giving up everything?"
"My dear brother, why do you have to be so estranged from me? Although we were not from the same family before, our hearts were never apart."
Seeing that he was still stubborn, Zhuang Shao ignored him.
"If you don't want to, forget it."
"I will take my leave, Your Majesty, please do as you please."
After the ceremony, he called the guards and coachmen, got on the carriage, and went to Yuexi Mansion.
Dressed in plain clothes and with a pitiful appearance, he failed to arouse Zhuang Shao's sympathy. Frustrated and disappointed, Gu Mengzhen set out to return to the palace.
Ning Yunxi went to Yun Mansion to find Yun Boyu, and went to the governor's office together to change her citizenship.
After learning about Yun Boyu's whereabouts from the Yun Mansion's housekeeper, Ning Yunxi immediately set off and went to Prince Dijin's Mansion.
The grace of giving birth and raising a child was the same. She planned to keep the character "Ning" and still be called Ning Yunxi, but she would be registered as the Yun Clan and recorded as the daughter of Yun Boyu and Fang Renshu.
When he arrived at Prince Dijin's mansion, he learned that Yan Yu had already made a good medicine. After ending his retreat, Ning Yunxi quickly walked towards Mianmu Residence.
Upon hearing the report, Yan Yu hurried out to greet him.
"Little sister, I just heard that you were in trouble. I was just about to summon Ji Aiqing and others to come and rescue you."
"How is it? Are you hurt?"
Seeing that he was sweating with anxiety, Ning Yunxi took out a silk handkerchief and helped wipe the sweat off his forehead.
"Don't worry, brother. I'm fine."
Yan Yu stopped wiping the sweat off his face and held her hand tightly.
"Why don't you stay in the mansion? It's very dangerous to enter the palace at this time."
"If it weren't for the Sixth Princess, who risked her life to uncover the news and report it to me, we would have no idea of your predicament."
Ning Yunxi comforted him softly.
"Don't worry, I know my limits."
"Before entering the palace, I brought the imperial decree appointing the emperor and empress and hid it in the medical space."
Yan Yu's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Enthrone the emperor and empress?"
"So, you are going to make the contents of the imperial edict public?"
Ning Yunxi's cheeks were flushed.
"Yes."
Good news suddenly came out of nowhere. Yan Yu's heart was overwhelmed and she couldn't believe it for a moment.
"Do you know what the purpose of publicizing that imperial decree is?"
"You can't just do it to save your life and then regret it later, right?"
There was a hint of helplessness in Ning Yunxi's eyes.
"I don't regret it."
She bent her knees slightly and saluted.
"Your Majesty, I thank the Emperor Jin for his grace."
Yan Yu was ecstatic.
"Great."
"I immediately notified the state governor's office and asked them to send someone over to register our marital status."
Ning Yunxi stopped him.
"Wait a moment, brother."
"Allow me to regain my identity as a Cloud Clan first, and then sign the marriage contract with you."
"By the way, where is my father?"
Yan Yu was puzzled.
"Lord Yun?"
"Is he on duty at the palace today?"
Ning Yunxi answered.
"Unknown if he is on duty."
"The Yun Mansion's housekeeper said that my father was escorted by Lord Yu, the Li Prince's guard, to seek refuge in Prince Dijin's mansion."
Yan Yu was still excited and overjoyed.
"Or in the guest room. I'll ask."
Ning Yunxi tried to stop him again.
"Brother, you're not busy. I'll go ask myself."
She did not tell her uncle and others about the tragedy, so as to prevent her brother from becoming resentful and losing interest in the overall situation.
"The medicine is ready. My brother should think about entering the palace and curing the emperor's illness."
"Business matters."
Yan Yu agreed without hesitation.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll get ready and go to the palace to 'visit' my brother."
Ning Yunxi looked around.
"Didn't you say that the Sixth Princess knew about me?"
"What about her?"
Thinking about getting married and getting married, which was a double happiness, Yan Yu's lips curled up and he was very happy.
"She left first to go to Ning Mansion to inquire."
"Don't worry, I'll send someone after her right away to let her know she's safe and bring her back."
Ning Yunxi nodded in response.
"okay."
After watching Yan Yu leave, Ning Yunxi went to the housekeeper's guest room and asked where Yun Boyu was.
Father and daughter submitted evidence of their origins at the Governor's Office and successfully changed their nationality. From then on, she became the eldest daughter of the Yun Clan, Ning Yunxi.
To the outside world, the time had not yet come to leave the Ning clan and announce her true background. Ning Yunxi waited patiently for Yan Yu to return home after the incident, and then wrote a letter to announce the matter of the emperor and empress to the world together.
