Chapter 158
Today, Xiao Zhiqian deprived Yujing of the right to become a mother because he was worried that King Liang would become bigger.

In the future, if she becomes pregnant, the monarch may also take away the child with another kind of worry.

Xiao Zhiqian's possessiveness for power is too strong, and any force that may hinder his imperial hegemony must be eliminated.

In grief, she shed tears and leaned on her husband's body.

Holding the delicate and trembling body in his arms, Ye Chuan was also sad.

Xiao Zhiqian will explain this matter in front of him, which has already explained the monarch's position: he still doubts Li Ci after all, and he hopes that Ye Chuan will tell her this matter as a warning.

But he couldn't help but tell that, on the one hand, the husband and wife should not hide anything from each other, on the other hand, the conspiracy has already been launched, and there is no point in whitewashing the peace.

Sooner or later, she will know about her brother-in-law taking away King Liang's child.

Since ancient times, the imperial palace has been a place where conspiracies inhabit. He once naively thought that he could escape from these strife and take her with him to leave this dark and damp city, but now, he has understood that he... can't leave.

When he entered the city with his sister, he was already trapped in the situation and couldn't extricate himself.

Countless invisible spider threads entangled him, making him unable to move.

I just pity her, she didn't do anything wrong, just because of a life experience that even she may not know, she has to bear the monarch's suspicion.

Thinking sadly, he clung to her, clumsily sweet-talking.

"Don't cry, watching you cry, my heart is about to die."

"...I...I'm just...I'm so scared..."

"No, brother-in-law won't treat us like this."

He murmured, as if convincing Li Ci, but also as if trying to convince himself, Li Ci knew that he was also afraid.

Like and trust can be for a lifetime, or just for a moment, after all, people's hearts are changing all the time.Who can guarantee that King Liang's today is not their tomorrow?

But Li Ci is willing to believe in Ye Chuan, in a future that no one knows about.

She carefully broke away from his suffocatingly tight embrace as if she was about to rub herself into his body, brushed her fingers over her heart, paused for a long time, and finally landed on Ye Chuan's heart, met her eyes, and said softly: "I believe."

Those three simple words were enough to warm Ye Chuan's heart. He grabbed her hand on his heart and didn't know how to express the sweetness in his heart for a long time.

Lici, on the other hand, felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by his fiery eyes, lowered his eyes, changed the subject and said, "Today, when I was visiting the house with Qing'er, I encountered a strange thing."

"Oh? What kind of strange thing can make Madam so happy?"

"About Shizi Bai."

As soon as the words were finished, the air became stiff. Li Ci raised his head and found Ye Chuan's face was slightly embarrassed.

"This one……"

"If I'm not mistaken, Bai Fu is a woman."

It was another thunderbolt.

The originally tender face suddenly became serious. Ye Chuan glanced outside the veil, but there was no one. Then he said in a low voice: "Madam, there are some things...don't talk nonsense. Be careful that the walls have ears."

Li Ci smiled sweetly, and said: "She spends most of her days being lazy, likes Longyang but doesn't go to Xiaoguanlou for entertainment, but she is extremely attentive to you. She is not a woman, is she still a man?"

The turn of the words was just right, and Ye Chuan, who mistook Li Ci for that kind of meaning, scratched Li Ci's nose jokingly, and said, "Madam, are you jealous?"

Li Ci snorted, leaned forward, bit her earlobe, and said fiercely: "I have already made it clear to her, for the sake of the relationship between the Bai family and the Ye family, she is a woman's matter, and I will keep it a secret from her. But If she hits you again, don't blame me for being merciless."

"This is between you and her, what do you do to bite me...it hurts..."

Ye Chuan pretended to be pitiful and begged for mercy. Li Ci knew that he was pretending to be confused, but seeing him in pain, he must have realized how bad it was, so he loosened his teeth and said, "It's not because I'm afraid that you won't be able to let go of sympathy, and you won't be able to bear it." Don't stop the tears from dripping, and she was soft-hearted for a moment, and half-pushed and half-heartedly fulfilled her? After all, she has a deep love for you, and she doesn't want you to be responsible..."

"Ma'am, who do you think I am?"

Ye Chuan said helplessly, not only dissatisfied, but also secretly happy because of arousing his wife's jealousy.

Seeing his slick tongue, Li Ci pouted and said, "Of course I know who you are, otherwise why would I marry you?"

"Then...tonight..."

"How can there be such a shameless and honest person like you in the world!"

She sighed, waved his mischievous hand away, and said, "It's almost the Chinese New Year... Princess Anping's side... Let's take some time to visit her. Anyway, she is an elder, yes..."

"it is good."

He nodded easily, which surprised Li Ci a little.

She knew that Ye Chuan had a lot of resentment towards Princess Anping, and thought it would take a lot of talking to get him to nod, but she didn't expect——

He couldn't help but sat up straight in astonishment, and said, "Didn't you always dislike Princess Anping and...?"

"I really don't like it. I didn't like it in the past, and I still don't like it now. But Princess Anping belongs to the Ye family after all, and the Bai family and the Ye family are in the same spirit after all. Today, His Majesty decided to take away King Liang's child because he was worried about King Liang. Maybe in the future—I believe that my brother-in-law will not treat me like this, but it’s just that I believe now, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? My sister’s health is getting worse and worse...I am also worried ...The new favorite enters the palace, and the world has changed since then."

In the end, the deep voice was even tinged with murderous intent. Li Ci knew that he was really worried that one day, the kindness would cease and the monarch would turn his back on him, which would be bad for their husband and wife.

"No, such a thing will not happen." She said softly but resolutely, looking straight at Ye Chuan: "Sister will not allow it. Princess Chang and Princess Yan will not allow it either."

"You... are you comforting me?"

Li Ci smiled bitterly: "It's not consolation, it's a promise. I want you to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, don't doubt me, don't abandon me. Because I...everything I do is for you and me. have this home."

"I promise you, I have always believed in you. Only my belief in you will not change until my heart stops."

Ye Chuan said meekly, and embraced her in his arms again.

She leaned on him, breathed the air full of his breath, and listened to the beating of his solid chest, she felt unprecedented peace.

"...You are a flying phoenix, but I am willing to be your stepping stone...I don't know why I like you, I just remember falling in love with you at first sight...Lici...I like you, in my life Knowing who you are, I have fallen in love with you before... So, you promised to marry me, I am very happy... You said you love me, I know that you still miss others in your heart, and I am very happy... Even if you are just using Me, as long as you care about me even a little bit in your heart, I am willing to do anything for you... not only Ah Mei can die for you... I can do it too... for you, I... can go against me morality..."

Intermittent words came to Jiangshui's sleepless ears. Li Ci didn't know whether these words were a lifetime promise or sweet words on the spur of the moment. In the haze, her body became lighter and lighter, and the familiar force came, but in When it is about to invade, it turns into spring water lingering around the body, rippling layer by layer, fainting into the body from the pores, impacting the depths, like a continuous tide, moistening things silently...

... Even the chill in the most secret place of my heart was dispelled...
