"Father, since my son has married Shen Zhuo, he is his."
"My son is willing to be exiled to the south with him."
After the trial of the Shen family came out and she learned that Shen Zhuo was going to be exiled, Murong Shu hurriedly entered the palace to plead for mercy.
"Nonsense!"
Of course Emperor Beiwu would not agree to the eighth princess being exiled with Shen Zhuo, "The Shen family has done many evil things and deserves their punishment. As a consort, Shen Zhuo knew that Shen Jing was going to poison you but did not stop him. Such a man is not worthy of being your consort." "
"I have decreed for you to reconcile. From now on, he will no longer be my son-in-law."
"You don't need to follow him to live in exile in the south."
Murong Shu's eyes were slightly red, and tears could not help but roll down one by one, "Father... I beg you, please let Brother Shen stay with me! No matter what, he and I are husband and wife. .”
His daughter begged hard, and Emperor Beiwu felt a little soft-hearted, "Then he is willing to stay in the palace?"
He didn't mention the identity of his male favorite.
At most, he would be the consort-in-law, but there was no such precedent in Northern Qi for this consort-in-law's identity.
In all dynasties of the Northern Qi Dynasty, men were always superior to women. Even if you were a princess, you would only have one man in your life, unless Heli remarried, but such things were rare.
Generally, women who have divorced will not marry again, because no one is willing to marry, and they are not willing to be someone else's concubine, so they can only end up alone all their lives.
"He is willing." Murong Shu said hurriedly.
Emperor Beiwu's eyes darkened slightly, "Then you go back first and I'll talk to him."
After the eighth princess left, Shen Zhuo was quickly taken to the imperial study.
"Do you resent me?" Murong Shen looked at the young man in front of him with some regret.
Shen Zhuo is a talented person, but it is a pity that the situation does not allow him to reuse the Shen family again.
Shen Zhuo hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I don't dare."
The corner of Murong Shen's lips curled up coldly, "Shu'er has a deep affection for you. She wants you to stay with her at the princess's residence. Are you willing?"
Shen Zhuo lowered his eyelashes and agreed without thinking too much, "I am willing to serve the princess."
"Well, if you are willing, then take this medicine." Murong Shen's lips curled up coldly, and he motioned for a black brocade box.
You can tell by looking at the markings on it that it's not poison, but a poison.
Shen Jing died and the Shen family was exiled.
Murong Shen naturally would not believe that Shen Zhuo would willingly stay in the capital to serve the princess.
His intention was clear, and he must seek revenge if he stayed, but despite this, Murong Shen still went along with the situation and fulfilled his wish.
Shen Zhuo didn't know what the emperor wanted to do, but in order to stay, he had to take even deadly poison.
Seeing that he took the poison without hesitation, Murong Shen smiled with satisfaction, "Don't worry, this poison will not cause any harm. I just don't want my precious daughter to suffer any grievances again. From now on, you Treat her well."
Shen Zhuo looked a little pale and said, "I obey your order."
"Well, go ahead! The eighth princess is waiting for you."
The emperor did not tell him what kind of poison it was.
Shen Zhuo followed people back to the Eighth Princess Mansion and saw Murong Shu before he understood what the poison was.
"Brother Shen..." Murong Shu was very happy that he could choose to stay, and hugged the man with tears of joy.
Shen Zhuo's face changed slightly. As the woman approached, the poison in his body immediately reacted. He hugged the woman uncontrollably, as if he could no longer leave her.
You must know that he had no male or female feelings for the Eighth Princess before, and would not have any desire to possess her.
But now...
"Thank you, princess, for taking me in." He tried his best to restrain himself and gently pushed her away. "I am very dirty now. I will wash up first and then come to see the princess."
Murong Shu wiped her tears and said, "Okay, I have already prepared the hot water. You can take a bath today! I will take you to see off the Shen family later."
Shen Zhuo's calm heart was actually very moved, and there was a rare tenderness in his eyebrows, "Thank you, princess."
"You and I are husband and wife, and we don't need to see each other like this. Mr. Shen... I have already sent people back to the Shen family. I told my father that he allowed you to send him on his last journey." Murong Shu noticed the change in his eyes. , her heart could not help but beat. She had never seen such a gentle look in his eyes.
