Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

Chapter 389 Go Back with Him

When she spoke, her voice was as soft as a mosquito's.

"What's the situation in the palace now?"

she asked again.

I'm afraid it's been a while since then.

"The emperor is not in the palace now. Let me take you out. I will find a way to cure you."

As he spoke, he took out a pill and fed it into her mouth.

Shen Zhishu did not resist either.

"And your children, as I told you."

An Zhouyu added that he probably knew who she was worried about.

Shen Zhishu was touched that he could say such things and think so much about her.

"What if I don't go with you? Will you be unable to...heal me?"

"What's the point of healing you? More than half of the people in the palace have the plague. Even if I heal you, what about your child? Shu'er, I can't stay here with you forever."

His tone was gentle.

But Shen Zhishu could tell that this was a threat.

If she didn't go with him, perhaps he wouldn't save the two children if they were infected with the plague.

For a moment, she clutched the corner of the quilt tightly and was unable to speak.

"Don't tell me... you want to stay here and wait for death? Even if you want to wait for the emperor, I'm afraid that when he comes back, he will see your corpse, or your child's. How do you think he will look at you even if you survive by chance?"

Seeing that she was still hesitating, An Zhouyu's tone became three points heavier.

Even the look in his eyes when he looked at Shen Zhishu turned a little colder.

It seemed that if she still refused, he would really just turn around and leave, no longer caring about her.

"When this is all over, you have to take me back."

After thinking for a long time, Shen Zhishu seemed to have no way out and could only agree.

"That's for sure. Maybe when I send you back, I will have made a contribution and the emperor will give me a promotion."

An Zhouyu laughed and was able to make a joke.

And he is also very efficient.

The next day.

Shen Zhishu and his two children left the palace under his arrangement.

He didn't allow anyone to be around her except Bitao.

Originally, she wanted Fang Yin to go out with her because she was a doctor and could take care of herself and the children.

But An Zhouyu promised that nothing would happen to her and the child, so there was no point in taking the female doctor with her.

In the afternoon, Shen Zhishu was taken to a relatively secluded mountain villa where there were no other houses around.

The villa was elegantly decorated, and there were servants trimming flowers and plants and sweeping the yard.

She and her two children were placed in the West Room.

"I live here too, right next door."

An Zhouyu helped her put her luggage away very quickly. From the moment she entered the villa, she could clearly feel a smile on his face.

"This villa is my mother's property. The east room is her residence. Friends from the underworld often come in and out of the north and south rooms. You have a special status, so you should stay in the west room on weekdays and don't go out."

Then an old maid and a young servant girl came into the room.

He said that they were specially hired to serve her, the old nanny Aunt Hua and the maid Xiao Ya.

Can she trust the people arranged by An Zhouyu?

Shen Zhishu was a little worried because he only had the silly Bitao by his side. It was too risky to follow An Zhouyu here.

But he was happy.

After a busy day, a banquet was specially held for her.

There were only the two of them, and they cooked all her favorite dishes.

"I have no appetite."

But because of his illness, Shen Zhishu only took a bowl of porridge to deal with the two mouthfuls.

She couldn't get up yesterday, but today she can walk with difficulty.

So the medicine he gave really worked wonders.

"It's okay. Maybe you'll have an appetite in a couple of days."

An Zhouyu ate her favorite dishes bite by bite with a smile.

"You said this is your mother's residence? But I remember you said that your mother...had been missing for many years."

Every brick and tile, every blade of grass and every tree in this villa are of great value, and require care and time to maintain.

If Princess Taihu has been missing for a long time and doesn't live here, why would we waste so much energy?

So has An Zhouyu always lived here?

"Yeah, I don't even know what she looks like. Even if she appeared in front of me now, I wouldn't recognize her."

An Zhouyu probably didn't expect Shen Zhishu to bring it up suddenly, and his smile instantly became a little bitter.

"But she left you such a big villa and dozens of servants. You just said that there are still friends in the north and south houses. Even if she is not here, she will still ensure that you have enough food and clothing."

"So you're trying to comfort me and tell me that my mother actually cares about me?"

An Zhouyu sneered indifferently, with a mocking look on his face.

Shen Zhishu remained silent when asked, after all, she knew nothing.

"Shu'er, it turns out you care so much about my feelings."

There was a hint of ridicule on the mocking face.

Shen Zhishu immediately shook his head.

"No."

She just wanted to know more about Princess Taihu and An Zhouyu.

After all, we are here now, we can't just do nothing.

"I'll take it as my own. You probably heard people outside talk about my mother and my miserable life experience, so you said that."

He suppressed his smile, lowered his eyes, and spoke in a calm tone, and his emotions could not be seen for a moment.

"My mother...is a wild person by nature. She left me because of a man. She has ignored me for twenty years. I don't have any feelings for her. As for me...I was just insulted and laughed at when I was young. I often hid and cried by myself when I was young. But after I grew up, I became numb and no longer got angry about such rumors."

He said it easily.

It seemed as if the misery he had experienced in the past was not worth mentioning and could be glossed over, and he didn't take it to heart at all.

"As for this villa, I built it through my own hard work over the years. What she gave me is just an empty shell."

"Not only here, but also other places, my mother squandered all the money a long time ago. I picked it up bit by bit."

As he spoke, he slowly raised his head again and looked at her with an extremely serious expression.

Does he really think so?

If he really had no complaints in his heart and was really not influenced by his mother, then why did he pretend to be a holy monk and kill so many people?

"If you are interested, I will tell you bit by bit after this disaster is over."

An Zhouyu smiled, as if he wanted to confess to her.

But doing so would only make Shen Zhishu more worried and afraid.

If he knew his whole background, he would definitely not let her go.

Then weren't all the things said in the palace lies?

But even if I question him, what good will it do me?

That night, Shen Zhishu stayed in the room with his child and did not go anywhere.

late at night.

After the villa became quiet, people felt inexplicably nervous.

Perhaps it was because of the lush trees nearby and the strong wind, it felt like ghosts were surrounding the entire villa, which was chilling.

The next day.

An Zhouyu prepared her favorite dishes as usual and ate with her.
