After the divorce, I pursued the Ninth Prince 100 times.

The result was as expected. Shen Nanxing shed tears silently. Fu Jiuli wiped her tears with a handkerchief from time to time, but the tears fell again as soon as he wiped them away. He could never wipe them away completely.

Mrs. Wen Xiang turned her body to the side and wiped her tears secretly. The old doctor also had red eyes.

Although Shen Ming couldn't see or hear clearly, from the sounds of them taking his pulse and examining him twice just now, he easily guessed that it was the old doctor and his wife who had come.

He smiled and said, "Aunt, Mr. Shen, don't waste your energy. I know my body well, and it's beyond saving..."

His voice was very soft: "Living until now, I have been able to see Nanxing get married, His Majesty ascend the throne, the world is unified, Qianqian was born, and I became the prime minister of a unified country..."

"Grandfather and his maternal grandfather's family are doing well, and Auntie and Elder Shen are reunited, living out their days in peace..."

"I...have no regrets..."

"Don't be sad, I am very satisfied with my life."

After saying so many words in one breath, Shen Ming closed his eyes tiredly.

Actually, it wasn't that he didn't have any regrets. He had let that little girl down after all...

Shen Nanxing said to Fu Jiuli and the old doctor and his wife with red eyes: "I have something to say to my brother alone..."

Fu Jiuli and the old doctor and his wife looked at each other, then quietly retreated and closed the door.

Shen Nanxing leaned close to Shen Ming's ear and said a little louder, "Brother, is my rebirth in this life because of you?"

Shen Ming's whole body trembled, and then his eyes flickered several times. He said in shock: "What rebirth? Nanxing, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"

Shen Nanxing's tears flowed even more fiercely: "It's you..."

"You used your life to give me another life... Is that right? That's why your body weakened for no reason, and now it's almost exhausted..."

Shen Ming: "No, don't guess blindly, I..."

"Don't deny it... Do you still want to lie to me?" Shen Nanxing burst into tears. No wonder... No wonder everything is different in this life...

Is it true that there is no such a cheap thing in the world? She can actually live her life again...

It turns out that all this was paid for by my brother’s life!

Tears streamed from Shen Ming's eyes: "Nanxing, in the last life, it was my brother who let you down... Now that I can make amends for everything, you don't know how happy I am..."

"Brother——" Shen Nanxing burst into tears.

"Don't cry, Nanxing, brother just wants to see you happy..."

The words have not yet fallen.

squeak-

The door was pushed open from the outside, and a young woman with red eyes walked in step by step.

Shen Nanxing looked over: "...Shuang'er?"

Shen Ming, lying on the bed, was stunned for a moment. He tried to open his eyes wide and look towards the door, but all he could see was pitch black. He could only see a vague outline, which looked like his little girl...

Hu Shuang'er smiled and called out "Sister Nanxing," then walked step by step to the bed, tears welling up in her eyelashes.

"Shen Beiyue, is this why you don't want to marry me?"

Shen Ming turned his body to the side, his face turned to the inside of the bed, and said in a cold voice: "You think too much, I just don't like you."

Hu Shuang'er sneered: "You don't like me... Then who have you been thinking about these days? Who have you been kissing? Who have you been hugging?"

Shen Ming's expression suddenly changed: "How do you know? That's all..." He stopped talking halfway.

Since she is here, doesn't that mean...?

Hu Shuang'er: "Do you understand now? Those beautiful dreams you thought were all real!"

Shen Ming was silent.

Hu Shuang'er suddenly knelt down in front of Shen Nanxing and said, "Empress, please grant me a marriage with Shen Beiyue!" She kowtowed deeply.

Shen Ming was furious: "I've already told you that I don't like you, you don't understand? I don't agree!"

Hu Shuang'er flipped her wrist, pulled out a dagger from somewhere, and put it to her neck: "If you don't agree, I will die in front of you now!"

Shen Ming: "It's unreasonable!"

The knife pushed inward, and a trace of blood suddenly appeared on the white neck.

"Shuang'er, no!" Shen Nanxing exclaimed, but Hu Shuang'er remained indifferent, staring at Shen Ming on the bed with her eyes.

Shen Nanxing was anxious: "Brother, if you don't agree, Shuang'er will really die!"

Shen Ming:!!!

I'm really going to be pissed off! One by one, they'll take advantage of his concern and threaten him with death!

Hu Shuang'er: "Shen Beiyue, I'm asking you one last time, will you agree to marry me?"

Shen Ming: "...Agree."

Ten days later, the Emperor and Empress personally presided over the wedding, and the Prime Minister's Mansion held a grand wedding banquet, and Shen Ming and Hu Shuang'er got married.

After that, Hu Shuang'er never left Shen Ming's side and was always with him.

For three months, Fu Jiuli and Shen Nanxing searched almost all the famous Taoist temples in the world, but they all returned empty-handed. No one knew how to change their fate.

Even after sending notices nationwide, not a single piece of useful information was received.

Asking Shen Ming was even more unbelievable, as he refused to reveal anything.

One day, an old man came to the palace gate and asked to see the emperor and the queen, saying that he could answer the questions they had.

After the eunuch reported, Fu Jiuli and Shen Nanxing immediately went to see the old man.

The old man had snow-white hair that was casually spread out, and he was wearing tattered clothes. When he saw the emperor and the empress, he said without waiting for them to ask questions:

"Once a man knelt on ten thousand steps, begging for half his life in exchange for a woman's rebirth."

"Another man, born with the Emperor Star destiny, gave up everything for a woman, wasted half his life, and plunged the world into endless suffering due to the lack of a wise ruler."

Shen Nanxing's eyes were red: "Master, can you please save my brother? I am willing to pay any price..."

The old man shook his head: "Everything is fate. Forcibly reversing it once is the limit. If you try to change your fate again, the heaven will collapse and all lives will be destroyed."

"Now that the Emperor has returned to his throne and the people are living in peace, do not harbor any unnecessary thoughts."

As soon as he finished speaking, the white-haired old man disappeared.

As if I had never been here.
