When Lian Meng heard this, he slowly lowered his head and said, ”Lian Fu, you thought that the emperor would be willing to listen to my words. Lian Meng, you've overthought things. Please forgive me.”
When the Emperor heard this, he was slightly stunned.
”Your Majesty …” At the same time, Lian Shufei rushed out when she heard the sound. When she saw Lian Fu kneeling on the ground, she quickly kneeled down and said, ”Your majesty, didn't Lian Fu run into your emperor? Your consort and he will seek forgiveness from the Emperor. ”
Seeing Lian Shufei so nervous, the emperor calmed himself down a bit. ”Don't be nervous, beloved concubine. Stand up.”
”Yes, thank you, your majesty.” Lian Shufei stood up and looked at Lian Fu, feeling a little apprehensive.
The emperor looked at Lian Meng and said coldly, ”You get up too.”
”Thank you, your majesty.” Lian Fang stood up, and there was a trace of disappointment in his eyes.
In the end, he didn't succeed in pleading for Princess Eleven. When Lian Meng and Lian Ruyue left Yi Xiu Palace together, they seemed to have something weighing on their minds.
”Yi'er, are you worried about the princess?” Lian Ruyue asked when she saw his frown.
”The Emperor still hasn't agreed.” Lian Fu felt a bit depressed in his heart. His eyes dimmed and he sighed.
”This is within my expectations. The Emperor will not let Princess Eleven return to her original life just because of your words.” Lian Ruyue said, ”Now that the empress has been forced into the cold palace and the crown prince has no hope of re-establishing himself, the princess will definitely be implicated like this. The emperor didn't cripple the empress that day and kept the princess' position.”
”But she's innocent. She didn't do anything.”
Lian Ru Yue sighed. In this regard, Yi'er and Princess Eleven were very similar. She said gently, ”Yi'er, in this fight, no one is innocent. Her identity, her location, has already decided her fate. No matter how she breaks free, she won't be able to break free from the shackles of fate. Princess Eleven's shackles are the empress and the crown prince.”
”Is there no other way?”
”Yes.” Lian Ruyue said, ”Unless Princess Eleven meets a good person who truly loves her and doesn't despise her, is willing to bear the danger from the empress and the crippled crown prince, is willing to marry her and let her leave the palace, and her in-laws won't look down on her just because of what happened. They will wholeheartedly protect her.”
When Lian Meng heard this, he immediately fell silent and lowered his head.
”Let's go, it's getting late. We should get out of the palace. I haven't forgotten about Princess Eleven either.” Lian Ruyue lightly patted his clothes and said.
”Yes.”
Just as the two were about to leave the imperial garden, they bumped into the approaching eighth prince, Feng Ye. Seeing Lian Xiyue's surprised expression, Feng Ye couldn't help but stop in his tracks.
