Chapter 316 - 316 315 Should I Forgive
?Chapter 316: Chapter 315: Should I Forgive? Chapter 316: Chapter 315: Should I Forgive? After the Ninth Prince was injured, the emperor was furious. Although he suspected that it was the Second Prince’s doing, he did nothing about it. He was not only considering the status of the Wangs, but also trying to maintain a balance that would force the Second and Third Prince to continue competing against each other, and ensure that the Wangs and the Suns kept fighting. Only in this way would he have enough time to nurse the Ninth Prince back to health, while waiting for Shan Jieyu to bear him a son, or for the Ninth Prince to have one, so that he could continue to build up the power of the Chus…
If the heavens were determined to thwart his plans, he would have no choice but to support the Seventh Prince. He would never pass the imperial throne to the sons of the two women who had caused the death of his most beloved son. After two days of consideration, the emperor stripped Chu Guangche of his role as the commander of the Imperial Forestry Army and gave him an honorary title of ‘Pillar of the State General’, allowing him to marry Princess Rong Zhao. It seemed to outsiders that Chu Guangche had completely severed ties with the centers of power, but in fact, he was still secretly working for the emperor, who also began to tacitly support Chu Guangkai on the frontier.
In order not to put Shan Jieyu in harm’s way, he allowed her to become a nun at the Emperor’s Grace Temple on the outskirts of the capital, allegedly to pray for blessings for the Ninth Prince…
These absurd plotlines, which could only be found in storybooks, had taken his father eleven years to play out, with no end in sight. Thinking of the almost fully recovered Ninth Prince, perhaps his father’s suffering was coming to an end?
Chu Lingxuan felt a lump in his throat as these thoughts flooded his mind. “When I think of my father, I feel incredibly fortunate,” he said. “I met the woman I love most, and got to marry you as I wished. In the future, we can live a peaceful life in the countryside.” He took Chen Afu’s hand and kissed it gently.
Chen Afu replied softly, “When your father and mother were young, weren’t they the same? They met, fell in love, and got married. They had two children and lived peacefully for fifteen years. But then your father felt the need to be a loyal subject. He sacrificed himself and made life difficult for his wife and children.”
