"You're wrong," Shang Junlin looked down at him condescendingly, as if looking at an ant, "Ayu is a human being, not something that can be used to measure. I respect every choice he makes."

But, he will never let go.

The laughter stopped abruptly, and King Yue Dingding looked at Shang Junlin: "Do you believe this sentence yourself? Isn't it because of the fate they bear when you called the Shen family into the palace?"

Shang Junlin suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed King Yue's neck, and picked him up: "Don't make everyone think as dirty as you, you believe this doesn't mean I believe it, if I really believe in fate, how can I sit in this position? "

"Cough cough." Because of suffocation, King Yue's face flushed abnormally, and he couldn't say a word except cough.

Shang Junlin frowned and let go of his hand. King Yue fell to the ground, clutching his neck and coughing violently.

Eunuch Meng carefully presented the handkerchief, and Shang Junlin wiped his five fingers one by one, as if wiping off the contaminants.

"You called me here just to tell me this?"

"I met Shen Yu outside the palace. If it wasn't because I was close to Shen Qingran and touched his bottom line, do you think he would choose to enter the palace because of his anger? If he really doesn't care about me at all, why would he get angry because of this? Even give up the great future to enter the palace?"

Every word of King Yue was like a thorn in Shang Junlin's heart.

The color of the man's eyes continued to deepen, rolling with emotions that people couldn't see through.

Eunuch Meng was so close, he could clearly feel the oppressive aura coming from the man, he couldn't help but secretly pinched his sweat. Will the words of King Yue have a bad influence on your majesty in His Majesty's heart?

How much Shang Junlin cares about Shen Yu, Eunuch Meng knows better than anyone else, the more people he cares about, the more he can't bear the slightest betrayal, especially when Shang Junlin is still an emperor, if he really thinks that Shen Yu has an old love for King Yue...

Eunuch Meng dared not imagine what the consequences would be.

Before leaving, Shang Junlin instructed the prisoners to "entertain" King Yue, and Eunuch Meng followed him tremblingly.

He could feel that His Majesty was in a bad mood right now.

No matter what you say in your mouth, you may never be able to be free from grudges in your heart.

Gonggong Meng wanted to persuade a few words, but heard Shang Junlin say in a very low tone: "If I kill King Yue, will Ayu be unhappy?"

Eunuch Meng was stunned for a moment, and slowly swallowed the words that came to his mouth. Things seemed to be different from what he expected.

Shang Junlin only said this sentence, and didn't expect to get an answer from anyone. On the way back to the palace, he kept silent all the time, no one knew what he was thinking.

Suddenly, Shang Junlin said, "Go to the dark prison."

Eunuch Meng did not dare to disobey, and hurriedly ordered the carriage to turn around.

When he arrived at the dark prison, Eunuch Meng followed up subconsciously, but was stopped by Shang Junlin: "You stay here, I will go in alone."

Eunuch Meng didn't know what Shang Junlin was going to do in the dark prison at this time, and he could not help but listen to Shang Junlin's orders, so he had to stand outside and wait.

Shang Junlin's state was obviously wrong. He was worried about what was going to happen, so he paced back and forth anxiously.

I don't know how long ago, Shang Junlin came out with a chill.

Eunuch Meng greeted him: "Your Majesty?"

"Go back to the palace."

In a word, it seemed that all the strength of the man had been exhausted, and he was silent all the way back to the palace.

Eunuch Meng didn't know what happened to Shang Junlin in the dark prison, but he felt that Shang Junlin who came out of the dark prison was colder than when he entered.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, the stars are shining in the night sky, and the cold wind is biting, seeping into the bone marrow.

The Yuzhang Palace was brightly lit and lively.

Shen Yu sat on the soft couch and watched as Mu Xi directed the little eunuch to paste the written couplets and blessing characters.

Yu Guang swept to the people outside the house, Shen Yu stood up, and walked out.

"Why didn't your majesty come in?"

Standing outside was Shang Junlin.

Shang Junlin was still wearing black clothes. Shen Yu rarely saw him wear other colors. When he got close, he could feel the chill coming from the man.

Shen Yu stretched out his hand and held Shang Junlin's hand that was hanging by his side, feeling a little surprised in his heart.

Men's hands are cold.

In Shen Yu's memory, Shang Junlin's hands were always hot. When it was cold, he would wrap his hands in the palms of his hands and slowly cover them to warm them.

"Your Majesty has been standing outside for a long time, and your hands are getting cold. Come in and warm up." Shen Yu took Shang Junlin's hand and walked into the room.

The man stood in the shadows, Shen Yu couldn't see the expression on his face, but felt that today's Shang Junlin was unusually silent.

Shang Junlin followed Shen Yu into the house step by step.

Shen Yu pushed Shang Junlin onto the soft couch and sat down, and ordered Mu Xi to bring hot tea and feed it to the man's mouth: "Your Majesty, drink a little to warm your body."

Shang Junlin stared at Shen Yu without blinking.

Shen Yu moved the cup in his hand forward.

The long eyelashes drooped down, and with a gloomy hand, the man finished drinking the water in the cup.

Shen Yu took the empty cup and turned around, wanting to put the cup on the small table on the side, but before he could lean over, he found that his sleeve was being pulled.

He turned around and saw Shang Junlin hooked his sleeve with one hand, and said the first sentence of the day.

"Don't go."

Shen Yu looked at the distance between Xiao Ji and himself, and then at the man who stubbornly grabbed his sleeve, and sat back helplessly.

Mu Xi came over and took the cup from Shen Yu's hand.

Shen Yu finally realized that something was wrong with Shang Junlin.

Shen Yu stretched out his hand to hold Shang Junlin's face: "Your Majesty, what happened? Why are you so lost."

He knows that Shang Junlin has been busy recently, but no matter how busy he is, he should not be like today, and the whole person seems to be stupid.

He stared at Shang Junlin's eyes, and his figure was clearly reflected in the man's dark pupils.

Suddenly, the man stretched his arms around his waist and pressed him tightly into his arms: "I went to see the King of Yue today."

"What is your Majesty going to do to see him?"

Seeing that there was nothing unusual in Shen Yu's tone, Shang Junlin's heart calmed down a little, and there was a complex look in his eyes where Shen Yu couldn't see it.

"He said something to me. He said that you chose to enter the palace because you were angry with him."

When he said this, Shang Junlin didn't know what he was thinking, maybe he thought something, maybe he didn't think anything at all. He originally wanted to keep this matter in his heart and never say it.

No matter what reason Shen Yu entered the palace for, as long as he has himself in his heart now, Shen Yu's previous life, he did not participate in, nor is he qualified to care about, he thought he could do it, but at this moment, he found that, he can not.

Whether it was before or after he met him, he couldn't ignore everything that happened to Shen Yu.

He longed for answers, and he was afraid of them.

He told himself over and over again that it was the past that he had no time to participate in, and he should not take it to heart, but King Yue's words were like gangrene attached to his bones, the more he didn't want to care, the more he kept echoing in his mind.

He asked himself: Is it really possible to not care?

The answer is no, he can't do it, he won't blame ShenYu for anything, he only hates King Yue, and deliberately approaches ShenYue for a proverb.

Shen Yu felt a strong sense of unease in Shang Junlin, he wanted to look up at him, but was tightly held in his arms and could only maintain a posture.

With a deep sigh, Shen Yu wrapped his hands around the man's thin waist: "Your Majesty, who cares about what King Yue says, he is now a prisoner, and he knows he is powerless to return to heaven, and what he said was nothing more than to make His Majesty unhappy, I entered the palace when I entered the palace. , if you want to say, it does have something to do with the King of Yue, hiss—"

The man's arm suddenly exerted force, and there was a burst of pain in his waist. Shen Yu patted his lower back and reassured: "Listen to me first."

The man's arm strength relaxed a little, but he still only restrained Shen Yu, preventing him from having any chance to leave.

Shen Yu didn't care, and continued: "Although it has something to do with King Yue, it's different from what he said. If I want to get angry, I have thousands of ways, why did I choose to enter the palace, which is the most unfortunate one? First, for His Majesty, I have heard a lot about His Majesty from other people. In fact, I really want to see what the real Majesty is like. If it wasn't for being detained in the mansion by the Marquis of Zhenbei, I might have seen His Majesty long ago. already."

Shen Yu said half-jokingly, "If I had seen Your Majesty first, there would be no matter of King Yue. Every part of His Majesty's body grows on my heart."

The gray fog in Shang Junlin's heart dissipated with Shen Yu's words, and he lowered his head and rubbed Shen Yu's face.

"Let's talk about King Yue, he's really annoying. He thought I didn't know anything and appeared in front of me like that. I just thought it was fake and didn't want to watch him act at all. Your Majesty should have investigated me and King Yue. I've always been indifferent to him, but after knowing his true identity, I think entering the palace is a good way to get rid of him."

Shen Yu didn't lie. Before he came back from his rebirth, he didn't know the true identity of King Yue, but this matter could no longer be verified. After his rebirth, he didn't want to have any entanglement with King Yue, so he simply chose a path completely different from his previous life.

Didn't King Yue like Shen Qingran, he fulfilled them.

"Your Majesty, don't think too much about King Yue's words. If your Majesty wants to know about me, you can ask me directly."

The closer he gets, the more Shen Yu can feel the unease of Shang Junlin. He doesn't know what Shang Junlin is uneasy about, but he is willing to do his best to make him feel at ease.

Shang Junlin quietly embraced the person in his arms, he wished time could stop at this moment forever.

"Ayu will always stay by my side, right?"

What fell along with the voice was a kiss printed on the forehead.

"Where can I go without His Majesty's side?"

Shang Junlin's arms loosened a bit, Shen Yu struggled to free himself from the man's arms, hooked the man's neck to force him to bow his head, and pressed his forehead against his: "I have to make a name for myself, I really don't like it. King Yue, whether in the past, present, or future, the only person I like is His Majesty."

After he finished speaking, he kissed Chi Chi's lips.

"Some things, if I don't really like it, I won't do it with him. Maybe the King of Yue also said something to His Majesty, His Majesty don't believe it."

If it was just King Yue, Shang Junlin would naturally not care as much as he does now. What really made him unable to let go was the words of the person he met in the dark prison.

He said that Shen Yu was destined to stand on the side of King Yue, his destiny was set, and manpower could not be changed.

At that moment, Shang Junlin's killing intent towards the King of Yue reached its peak.

Shen Yu took the initiative to resolve the unease in Shang Junlin's heart, he hugged Shen Yu, turned against the guest, and kissed back fiercely.
