Chapter 324 Use the grace of saving her life to force her to commit herself to you
Those paintings were drawn one after another before, and the one on top was drawn in one breath when they were alone outside.
He often couldn't help but look at these paintings, and every time he looked at them, he felt bitter in his heart. Only today, the bitterness finally brought a little sweetness.
At that time, he was a scholar and she was his wife. She washed her hands and made soup for her and sewed clothes for him.
He has always kept that robe.
Shen Cangzhu's eyes fell on his favorite painting, as if he had returned to that day again.
Under the pomegranate tree, the light and shadow are mottled. Your Majesty's skin is better than snow. In the sunlight scattered by the tree shadows, there is an extremely unreal hazy halo. She stands in the courtyard, and the brilliance around her makes the simple farmhouse brighter. .
She just waited for him to come home, and smiled brightly when she saw him.
Shen Cangzhu touched the painting and painted her smile.
"I can still wait for your smile in the future, right?"
At this time, Baopu's anxious voice came from outside, "Xiao Jun, please wait a moment, I will report you right away..."
"Get out of the way."
Xiao Wang pushed Baopu away, and the study door was violently pushed open. Xiao Wang glanced at Shen Cangzhu seriously, then turned around and stopped Baopu.
"I have something to talk to Shen Cangzhu."
After saying that, he closed the door directly.
Shen Cangzhu put away the painting, his good mood was ruined, "What are you doing, Mr. Xiao?"
Xiao Wang didn't say a word, but came over and punched him.
Shen Cangzhu didn't expect that Xiao Wang would do it as soon as he said it, and he was unprepared. Xiao Wang was so angry that he tried his best. Shen Cangzhu was beaten so hard that he took two steps back in embarrassment before he could stand still.
Shen Cangzhu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and lowered his face, "Xiao Wang, what are you doing here for no reason?"
"You have the nerve to say it's inexplicable? You don't want to think about what you did!"
Xiao Wang gritted his teeth, "Use the life-saving grace to let your Majesty achieve your goal every day. Before, it was harmless. You just flew a kite and let her accompany you all the time. Now it's even worse. I want to force your Majesty to consummate your marriage!"
Xiao Wang was in charge of palace affairs, and many things could not be hidden from his eyes. He watched and knew clearly Shen Cangzhu's plans.
He clenched his hands into fists and said, "Shen Cangzhu, how could you force her like that?"
Hearing the word forced twice, Shen Cangzhu narrowed his eyes dangerously and gritted his teeth.
"I don't understand what you are talking about. His Majesty said that he would consider it, but this is not the reason for Xiao Wang to act wildly."
"Don't you understand?" Xiao Wang laughed angrily, "Shen Cangzhu, why are you pretending to me? Do you think I don't know about the ideas you have in mind?"
"You have never brought your niece into the palace before. It was sooner or later. Why did you bring her here suddenly? You still show her to His Majesty every day to let her see how much you like children."
"What are you saying if you're not forcing her? You never said a word to force her, but you kept saying that you were going to die and you wanted a child."
"Your actions are more powerful than verbal coercion. You are silently torturing her every moment."
Xiao Wang took a deep breath, "Did you save her just to coerce her? You stabbed Qi Yu, saying that was the result of Qi Yu forcing His Majesty, but then you turned around and forced her a hundred times more than Qi Yu did."
"What does this mean? Only you, Shen Cangzhu, can force His Majesty, no one else can?"
Shen Cangzhu's face turned livid, "Xiao Wang, you've had enough."
Xiao Wang chuckled, "I told you about your dirty thoughts, and you became angry because of your shame? Why is that enough? I just started to settle accounts with you."
He pointed to his chest, "I wanted to save her at first, but you knocked me out and I did it myself. So you forced her like this?"
"Did you take the lead just to force her like this?"
At the beginning, Shen Cangzhu and Xiao Wang were both inquiring about how the Emperor of Qi could get rid of the poisonous insects, and they found out that they could transfer the poisonous insects to another person.
Xiao Wang had thought at that time that he could lure the poisonous insects to him. Anyway, the poison on his body would not be cured for a while. Don't worry if you have too many debts. One more poisonous insect means one more.
As a result, before he was about to take action, he was knocked unconscious by Shen Cangzhu. When he woke up, Zi Gu had already entered Shen Cangzhu's body.
Shen Cangzhu said that he should treat it as atonement. Xiao Wang saw that the matter was over and said nothing more, but now Shen Cangzhu had a different look.
"Before, you said you were willing, but later it turned into a forced sale. You used the grace of saving her life to force her to commit herself to you..."
"That's enough. I have never forced her. She is Your Majesty. If she doesn't want to, who can force her?" Shen Cangzhu interrupted him, with uncontrollable anger flashing in his eyes.
But Xiao Wang was even more angry than him.
"If you still don't admit it, do you dare to say that you have no other meaning in bringing your niece into the palace? Do you dare to say that you have no use in forcing her with only a few months of life left?"
"Yes, you didn't force her with words or rights, but you forced her with kindness."
"Originally, she owes you a life. How can she refuse when you are like this? She only has one way to go: to promise her life. You know that she is soft-hearted and very accurate, but she never thought of being rescued. How much can she bear?"
Shen Cangzhu was furious, "Did I tell you, His Majesty also needed an heir, and I happened to be the same, so he chose me."
"Why is it so just right that the minister started to urge me so vigorously? They also urged me before, but it was just daily advice, but now there is such a big movement?"
Xiao Wang sneered, "If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten to mention that you also used your family connections to push me further."
"It would be good to have Chief Shen as a grandfather, and he can also influence the previous dynasty."
Xiao Wang looked at Shen Cangzhu, "Do you think your methods are quite clever? But His Majesty actually understands it. I can understand it. How could she not understand it? She just didn't say it out loud."
The anger on Shen Cangzhu's face was replaced by blankness.
Xiao Wang looked at his reaction with sadness all over his body, "I finally understand that great kindness will inevitably turn into hatred over time. Fortunately, she is your Majesty. If you try it with someone else, hey, giving back the child will not cost you your life."
"She won't kill you if she doesn't expose you, but I want to kill you."
Xiao Wang looked at Shen Cangzhu, "Shen Cangzhu, stop, stop your persecution, otherwise I will not be able to help but want to kill you!"
Shen Cangzhu's face turned green and white, and when he heard Xiao Wang's words, the veins on his forehead jumped twice, but in the end he swallowed it back and only said one sentence.
"If you kill me, she will hate you and feel even more guilty towards me."
"You...shameless." Xiao Wang's anger was stirred up again.
Shen Cangzhu lowered his head and said nothing, making no excuses. He was right, he just loved her too much.
Xiao Wang looked at his unrepentant look and closed his eyes, "Shen Cangzhu, let me remind you one last time, you did something wrong."
"Relationships can take a lot of effort, and you can use some tricks, but they can never be calculated like this. You have hurt her once, are you going to do it again now?"
