Chapter 71: I have sworn to live and die with her
"Isn't that perfect?" The domineering Fifth Prince's eyes were filled with desolation. "I no longer have to worry about food being poisoned. I no longer have to face those conspiracies and schemes. I no longer have to be nagged by you, saying I owe my brother. I no longer have to face your disappointed eyes."
He said, "Mother, Nian Xing didn't hit me hard at all. She felt guilty when I said it hurt. Nian Xing would unconditionally protect me in her arms and was willing to block me when I fell off a cliff.
Since I was a child, you have told me that even the guards cannot be trusted, that I must learn martial arts on my own, and that I must grow up to be someone respected by everyone. I know you are doing this for my own good, but I also want someone to protect me, even if it is only occasionally.
I really feel like I work very hard, but I can never compare to my brother, and I get tired too."
After saying this, he glanced at his mother with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
This was the first time he told his mother his true feelings, and he couldn't help but expect his mother to change a little.
But he was still disappointed.
De Fei tried to open her eyes wide to prevent the tears from spilling out. The words of apology on her lips turned into: "The first time you opened your heart to my mother was for a woman. Aren't you afraid that my mother will be disappointed?"
The domineering Fifth Prince laughed sarcastically, "Have I ever satisfied Mother? Only my brother can satisfy Mother, right?"
In his first life, his elder brother became a monk for him, and his mother kept saying that he owed his elder brother his whole life.
In his second life, he asked to be exchanged with his brother as soon as he could speak, but his mother told him to cherish the present time and not to be ungrateful for the blessings he had.
It seemed as if his mother always had the truth. On one hand, she said that he could stand in the sun and have the love of his father and mother because of his brother's sacrifice, and on the other hand, she told him to cherish the present time. If he continued to argue, he would only get the reply: "How can my mother harm you?"
In this life, he figured it out. He had lived three lives and shouldn't bother with his mother.
He told himself that his mother was imprisoned in the palace, and her life was filled with palace fighting, vying for favor, making profits for the family, and paving the way for her son.
Since he couldn't change his mother's life, he would just silently endure the pressure she forced upon him because of her unhappy life.
But after hearing Shimotsuki's heartless words, he changed his mind.
It was indeed hard for him to accept it at first. After all, he was a member of the royal family, and his willingness to marry into the royal family was already a sign of breaking his backbone.
He also admitted that marrying into the family was a temptation for Shimotsuki.
He knew that Shuangyue would care about his ending, but he also believed that Shuangyue could think that as long as he married into the family, he would stay away from the fight for the throne.
But on second thought, Shuangyue is really open-minded.
If her protection when he fell off the cliff made his heart beat fast, then her character was the reason why his heart kept beating fast.
She is not afraid of life or death, status or position, or the constraints placed on women in this world. She does things according to her mood.
He followed her example and made sarcastic remarks about his fourth brother, whom he had long disliked, and felt a sense of physical and mental relaxation.
He followed her wishes to help women in distress, and the gratitude of those people made him feel a sense of accomplishment he had never experienced before.
So he followed her frankness and said those words to his brother.
How could he not know that it was abnormal to be thankful that Shuangyue only slapped him in the face? But his mother had said the same thing before, and he wanted to pass it on to her through his brother.
Facing his inner self, he knew clearly that he could not give up his mother's love for him.
He will never forget that when he was a child, he was pushed into the lake and his mother jumped into the lake like crazy to save him.
He was fine, but his mother had a high fever.
But he still failed.
There are some things that his mother can say but he cannot.
He was indeed a person of little influence and could not change his mother.
After a long silence, he slammed the teacup on the table.
The porcelain shards broke into several pieces, piercing my palms, but they were nothing compared to the pain in my heart.
Ignoring his bleeding fingers, he picked up a piece of porcelain and pressed the sharp tip against his neck.
His eyes were crimson, and his voice was unwavering: "Mother, I know you must hate Nian Xing. You can say I am unfilial or partial to her, but I have sworn to live and die with her."
Defei was so angry that she was shaking all over. Looking at her son's palm with blood dripping, her expression was resolute and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, and every breath she took was unbearable.
Even so, she still raised her head proudly, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and coldly spat out the word "get out".
Watching his son bow and leave nonchalantly, laughter and tears intertwined, but his eyes had long since dimmed.
After a long time, she sent someone to contact the nanny beside Xiao Jin, which led to the kidnapping incident.
The nanny beside the abstinent Fifth Prince knew a little martial arts. She carried Shen Shuangyue into the woods and took a shortcut back to the capital.
Shen Shuangyue endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help but speak, "Mammy, can you change positions? I just ate a little too much, and I feel like vomiting if you carry me like this."
The nanny stopped immediately, her heart beating violently because of guilty conscience, and she took out the drug again without hesitation.
"Mammy, guess why I can still speak now?" Shen Shuangyue sighed, jumped off the mammy's shoulder with a somersault, and then used her arms and legs to lie on the mammy's back.
"Please escort me back to Beijing, Madam. I like this posture."
Mammy stood there in silence for a long time before finally uttering a few words: "As long as you like it."
Shen Shuangyue thought about her plan to compete for the emperor's favor and chuckled softly, "I suddenly realized that being kidnapped is not bad. It allows me to not have to worry about whether you will be tired. It's such a long way to go. I don't even want to walk when I think about it. I really admire you for carrying me on your back."
The nanny was silent for a moment, then asked, "Miss Shen, you were clearly not knocked unconscious, so why did you let me take you away?"
"Because I know you won't betray Concubine De, and I won't be in danger." Shen Shuangyue said in a nice way.
"Why do you think Concubine De will not harm you?" The nanny frowned slightly. Does she feel that she has nothing to fear because she is liked by the Fifth Prince?
Unexpectedly, Shen Shuangyue's answer was: "The Fifth Prince has excellent character, it must be because of the good education given by Concubine De.
Furthermore, the Fourth Prince is older than the Fifth Prince and has grown up safely, which is enough to prove that Concubine De is not someone who kills innocent people."
It was difficult for the nanny to describe her feelings. Before this, she did not have a good impression of Shen Shuangyue. After all, in her heart, only a lady from an aristocratic family was worthy of the Fifth Prince. However, Shen Shuangyue turned a blind eye to the Fifth Prince's feelings.
But now, she began to understand what was special about Shen Shuangyue.
Her heart moved as she asked with a hint of curiosity and tentativeness, "Can you do me a favor? The Queen ordered me to knock you out, but..."
She didn't say the rest of the words, but it was enough for people to understand.
Shen Shuangyue rested her face on Mammy's shoulder, looking particularly considerate. "Then I'll borrow Mammy's shoulder to sleep on. How long will the medicine Mammy use to take effect?"
"Three hours."
"Okay." Shen Shuangyue took out a candy from her pocket and put it in her mouth. After a while, the arms and legs that were hugging the nanny gradually loosened.
The nanny hurriedly stopped Shen Shuangyue from falling. Seeing that it was difficult to move forward by carrying her on her back, she changed from carrying her on her back to holding her in her arms, and walked through the woods, and gently placed Shen Shuangyue into the carriage that was waiting.
The carriage had been traveling for about an hour when Shen Shuangyue heard Concubine De's exasperated voice: "You're pretending to be a ghost, and I'm not even afraid of you!"
"I'm going to teach her a lesson! I'm going to scare her until she cries!"
Who told her to make my eyes swollen from crying!
Defei added the last sentence with a bit of grievance in her heart.
Shen Shuangyue asked in her heart: [System, I'm suddenly curious, how scary is it?]
System: [This is as terrifying as the opening ceremony of the Underground Palace in the Little Devil Country.]
Shen Shuangyue understood, "Okay, I'll come and support you later."
