Chapter 1608

"Ah."

"Why? She can't eat without you?" Emperor Mingde laughed.

It was clearly just a casual joke, but it made the originally relaxed atmosphere cold.

Cen Yuan's smiling face gradually faded, and complex emotions flashed in his eyes. He lowered his head and looked at the teacup in his hand. The tea was slightly cold, and his angular face was faintly reflected.

After a while, Cen Yuan slowly spoke in a low voice, "Because... Xia'er is trying hard to fight against that damn heartless Gu."

As the words fell, the imperial study was completely silent. Only the autumn sun shone faintly through the window lattice, casting mottled shadows all around.

He placed the teacup gently on the table, his fingertips turning slightly white.

He knows. He knows everything.

Although Shen Siyuan did not say it explicitly, Cen Yuan looked through all the records in the classics and found that "Xia'er was desperately fighting against the heartless poison that suppressed her emotions and cut off her love."

He used up almost all his strength to say this.

Emperor Mingde felt pain in his heart and could no longer laugh. "Is there no antidote?"

"Yes." Cen Yuan's throat rolled and she choked with sobs, "When I came to find her in this life, I didn't know she was under the spell of Zhuyou..."

If he didn't appear in her life, it would be the best antidote.

Perhaps she has given up on love and affection, and doesn't need to care about any man. As long as she doesn't care, there is no such thing as resistance or suppression.

In fact, with her strength, there is no need for her to get married.

She will be fine.

It was Cen Yuan's appearance that broke all the balance. He kept awakening everything that she had forgotten at a heavy price in her previous life.

Emperor Mingde was also in a heavy mood. He raised his hand and rubbed his brows. "Even if you knew, could you control yourself from looking for her?"

When you like someone, you always want to rush to him/her. Even if there are mountains and seas between you, or even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, you can't help but want to get close to him/her. Even if you know there is an abyss ahead, you will jump in without hesitation.

He himself was like this, let alone Cen Yuan who had come here after traveling through a long period of time to follow the trail.

Cen Yuan felt a pain in her heart when she heard that. Her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible. She felt more helpless than ever before and said, "No."

Not only could he not, he also...consummated his marriage with her. He closed his eyes tightly, and the joy he had felt for the past few days suddenly turned to ice.

Emperor Mingde couldn't bear it, "What did the Minister Shen say?"

Cen Yuan shook his head.

What can I say? That thing is invisible and intangible, and it is from the previous life. It has never existed.

"Shen Yuanshi is powerless." Cen Yuan looked more depressed than ever before. "Xia Er... doesn't love me."

"Nonsense!" Emperor Mingde shouted angrily, "If she doesn't love you, who else can she love?"

One in a million! Unless she's blind.

But she was really blind once in her last life! How could she fall for his useless and stupid son?

Emperor Mingde patted Cen Yuan on the shoulder and said, "I have some ideas. Can you tell me?"

Cen Yuan's nose was sore and he lowered his head, "Yeah."

Emperor Mingde had the meal served, the wine poured, and then dismissed everyone before saying, "Some people are too quiet and reserved. They may not show their joy on their faces, nor do they talk about their likes. Xia'er may be such a person."

Cen Yuan was silent, thinking back to his previous life... No, the more reserved a person is, the more scorching they will be when they become passionate.

He had seen her passionate look.

Not to King Jin, but to him.

My heart and eyes are full of him!

But if you look closely, is that directed at him? I'm afraid it was the Queen Mother Huizheng's response to the Weibei General who went to the Northern Wing.

She had more people in her heart, the entire North Wing. She was passionate because she placed all her hopes of saving the North Wing on him.
