It's all ruined, who cares about the chastity arch

"What has he done now?"

Although his voice was gentle, it revealed an irresistible majesty.

Eunuch Liu bowed slightly and replied, "That person has been clamoring to meet Princess Su Wanyu. He seems to still be obsessed with the past."

There was a hint of helplessness and contempt in his words.

A sneering voice came from Emperor Xuan's mouth: "He even dared to ask to see my elder sister. Isn't that polluting my elder sister's eyes? I'd better go and take a look."

There was a cold determination in his tone.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

So Eunuch Liu led him forward carefully.

The two of them walked down the dark and deep stairs, one in front and one behind, step by step, and the air around them became increasingly cold and gloomy.

There were wobbly oil lamps hanging on the walls, casting unstable shadows around them.

Every step made a slight sound, which seemed particularly loud and lonely in this empty dungeon.

As they gradually approached their destination, the hoarse shouting could be clearly heard: "Let me see Su Wanyu! Let me go out to see her! She is my wife, the one who was brought into my home by a sedan chair carried by eight people! Let me go find her quickly!"

These hysterical calls seemed to penetrate through layers of fog and directly into the depths of people's hearts, making people shudder involuntarily.

Listening to those sad words, Emperor Xuan raised a cold smile, turned around and whispered to his entourage, "It seems that Zheng Chengyan has lost his mind. After being imprisoned here for years and months and suffering torture, I'm afraid he will never be able to recover his former glory."

Although the words were gentle, they contained strong contempt.

Indeed, after spending countless long nights in this dark silence, this once high-spirited young man has now turned into a madman.

A sudden high fever not long ago almost burned away all his sanity and good memories of the past.

Including the engagement that was once so sweet but now seems like a dream and so fake...

Now in his confused mind, he is still a brilliant nobleman.

She is still his legitimate bride.

This stubborn and foolish trust led him to seriously misjudge the current situation.

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but laugh sneerfully, and turned to his subordinates who were waiting respectfully beside him to ask about the details.

The attendant immediately bowed his head and replied respectfully: "The patient's condition has worsened significantly recently, accompanied by obvious memory loss."

Hearing this, the emperor looked at the dying figure in front of him with disdain, "Does this mean that I have become a useless person?"

There was a strong sense of contempt and dissatisfaction in his words.

At this moment, Zheng Ershao, who had been huddled in the corner and shivering, actually struggled to stand up. His pale face was full of desire and helplessness. "Your Majesty... please have mercy on me and release me! I want to go find my wife."

Hearing this, a complex look flashed across the young emperor's eyes, and then he put on a cold expression and asked sternly, "Your wife? I'm afraid that Second Young Master Zheng didn't remember the truth. Your fiancée officially announced the cancellation of the engagement several years ago, and married the current regent! The so-called husband-wife relationship between you no longer exists."

As soon as the voice fell, the person opposite was stunned for a few seconds, then his face turned pale, his eyes became more frantic and disordered, and he shook his head desperately and denied loudly: "Absolutely impossible! How can a mere merchant's daughter easily obtain such glory and noble status?"

Faced with such an extremely stubborn attitude, the man of royal blood completely lost his patience and shouted angrily: "Shut up! You have no right to comment on my eldest sister! Don't even dare to say anything rash!"

Every word fell like a heavy hammer into the air, causing a deafening echo.

Doubts instantly filled every detail around him, "The elder sister your majesty is referring to is..."

Just when the question was about to be answered, a sudden sharp pain hit me.

A disdainful smile appeared on the handsome face of the young emperor again, "It is obvious that you have already forgotten all this."

Then a name came out that no one expected.

"The woman you have always despised is my only relative, and also the most noble and unrivaled person in our Great Tang Dynasty—Princess Yong'an Ning!"

During the violent struggle, unbearable pain swept through the body, and the shrill screams echoed in the underground world for a long time, making people's scalps tingle and their hearts chill.

However, no matter how Zheng Chengyan roared or resisted, he could not change the facts.

As time went by, his voice gradually became weaker until it completely disappeared...

After hearing this, Emperor Xuan turned around abruptly, his eyes flashing with indescribable complex emotions.

His tone was firm and full of determination, and he ordered the eunuch Liu beside him in a stern voice: "Go and bring the memorial submitted by the Qizhou prefect to the second young master for his review immediately."

Eunuch Liu was slightly stunned, but then he took the order and left.

He knew in his heart that this was an effort by His Majesty the Emperor to make the other party see the truth.

"Let him take a closer look at how the people in this world evaluate that woman."

Emperor Xuan's voice was still strong and powerful, "I want to see if this woman is really as frivolous and greedy as Zheng Chengyan described!"

At this point, he paused for a moment and asked, "See if she is just the offspring of an ordinary merchant."

It is not difficult to detect the excitement in his heart in this series of words - his protection of his sister Su Wanyu is beyond words.

After all, during these long years, only that person named Zheng Chengyan always used her so-called "commoner origin" to attack her, as if trying to discredit her reputation; and today is to completely crush these rumors and let everyone realize that even if she no longer has the aura of nobility, my sister is still an existence that cannot be desecrated.

After a while, Eunuch Liu walked back to the main hall and respectfully held up the important documents with both hands.

Most of the content sent by Qizhou this time focused on praising the deeds of Gu Linjun and several brave soldiers; but what is more noteworthy is that there was a lot of high recognition of Su Wanyu's selfless assistance in rebuilding her homeland.

There are quite a lot of documents, more than a hundred.

When all the materials were placed in front of Zheng Chengyan, Emperor Xuan slowly said: "Come on, second son of the Zheng family, since you can read, you might as well learn how everyone praises the person who you disdain."

As they spoke, they handed the books to him one by one to read.

At first, faced with this sudden huge amount of information, the young man seemed a little overwhelmed. He could only hastily pick up some memorials that fell at his feet and hastily browse through them.

I saw the white paper was filled with words of praise, and every character was telling a beautiful and moving story.

They portray Su Wanyu as a good person with noble character and a heart for the people.

It depicts her image of always treating others with kindness, righteousness and morality.
