Chapter 117 You Love Me Three Points

Zhao Shizhu saw Su Ci was silent, and frowned slightly: "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

Su Ci wondered: "What should I say?"

For the first time in his life, Zhao Shizhu confessed his past to others. To him, it was certainly not a glorious past. But why was Su Ci's reaction so indifferent?
"Don't you feel pity for me?" Zhao Shizhu was speechless.

Su Ci gave him a fake smile: "Your Majesty is the ruler of a country. You have everything you want. How can you be pitiful? Although your Majesty's past was a bit rough, wasn't that also the driving force for your Majesty to make progress? Without that past, your Majesty might not be the ruler of a country today. On the contrary, I think it was the pitiful and weak little prince in the past who made your Majesty what he is today."

Zhao Shizhu was often unwilling to face the unbearable past, but after hearing Su Ci's few words, he suddenly felt relieved.

He felt that what fascinated him most about Su Ci was her personality.

"Your Majesty is so keen on the throne. In addition to the power, another reason is for your biological mother, right?" Su Ci said again.

She remembered that the barrage had revealed that Zhao Shizhu's most beloved person was in the capital, and that most beloved person must be Zhao Shizhu's biological mother, but she fell into Liu Hu's hands.

"It's a pity that Liu Hu ran away early. In fact, since I was summoned to the capital by Emperor Jianning, I have sneaked into Liu's mansion more than once, but I have never seen my mother. I don't know if my mother is safe or where she is." Zhao Shizhu still cares a little, "When I knew that my mother was still alive, I always hoped to see her one day. After so many years, I don't even know what my mother looks like."

Su Ci was silent for a long time before replying, "My mother had a difficult birth and I have never met her."

In this regard, she and Zhao Shizhu can be said to be in the same boat.

But she was raised with the pampering of her old father and had a good brother like Su Fu, so she was much luckier than Zhao Shizhu.

Zhao Shizhu looked at Su Ci with burning eyes: "Now you know that I am no different from you. My past was so pitiful, shouldn't you be more compassionate to me in the future?"

Su Ci: ...

What kind of crazy logic is this? A man like him needs a woman like her to love him. Don't laugh at me.

[I can see that Zhao Shizhu is using a self-torture tactic on Su Ci! ]

[Isn't it the honey trap that's going to be used next? 】

[I think Zhao Shizhu's goal in pursuing his wife has always been very clear. His plan is to make Su Ci pregnant with his child. With a child, Su Ci will no longer think of running away. Su Ci has been without a mother since she was a child. If she becomes a mother herself, how can she leave the palace, leave Zhao Shizhu, and leave her child?]

Seeing this barrage, Su Ci suddenly had an epiphany.

No wonder Zhao Shizhu simply lived in her Kunning Palace. Could it be that he wanted to tie her down with the child and trap her in the palace forever?
If one day she gets pregnant and has ties, can she still just leave?

It is possible that she has been pregnant since she entered the palace.

Yes, if she was pregnant and Zhao Shizhu seemed to like her very much, would he still force her to take Xiaoyao Decoction?

Not surprisingly, Zhao Shizhu worked very hard that night and exhausted Su Ci badly.

After the drugging incident, Empress Dowager Gao sent Gao Ling away and did not dare to act like a demon in the following days.

Su Hua was placed under house arrest, and the ban could not be lifted without an imperial decree, which was no different from being banished to the cold palace.

Although Bai Shuang was unwilling, so what? She had no chance to get close to Zhao Shizhu.

What's more, Zhao Shizhu promised her that he would take care of her for the rest of her life, and he did not abandon her, allowing her to live a stable life in the harem. As long as she behaved herself and didn't make trouble, there would always be a place for her in the main palace.

But this is not the life she wants, but what can she do?
Even Empress Dowager Gao couldn't deal with Su Ci, let alone her, a mere concubine who couldn't even see the emperor?

If he wanted to see Zhao Shizhu, there was actually another way, which was to go and pay his respects to Su Ci every day. But Su Ci, this damned woman, slept until noon every day, how could she be like the mother of a country?

Just when Bai Shuang was in despair, she lifted the quilt and wanted to go to sleep that night, but she found a letter under the quilt.

She turned around and looked at Shuang'er and asked, "Has anyone come to my dormitory today?"

Shuang'er was stunned: "I didn't keep an eye on it all the time, so I'm not sure if anyone has come. What happened?"

Bai Shuang asked Dan Er again, and Dan Er also said he didn't notice.

After hesitating, Bai Shuang finally opened the letter. When she saw the contents of the letter, her eyes widened and her heart beat rapidly.

The signature on it was Liu Hu, the person Zhao Shizhu was looking for. She knew that Liu Hu had harmed Zhao Shizhu in the past, and Zhao Shizhu almost died at Liu Hu's hands.

If Zhao Shizhu knew that she was colluding with Liu Hu, she would die.

What's more, Liu Hu said in the letter that if she could find an opportunity to take Su Ci out of the palace, he would be able to help her get rid of this scourge Su Ci forever.

She glanced at the letter from time to time, and the more she thought about it, the more excited she became.

With Su Ci around, she couldn't possibly get Zhao Shizhu's favor. Since Su Ci entered the palace, Zhao Shizhu stayed in Su Ci's Kunning Palace every night. How could she have a chance?
Shuang'er also saw the contents of the letter. Seeing that her master was moved, she knew that the situation was not good.

After being caned, she knew that Zhao Shizhu was the key to their life and death. Even though she was Bai Shuang's maid, Bai Shuang could not save her at the critical moment, because Bai Shuang was not favored.

"Jieyi must not do anything stupid. The Queen cannot touch you. If His Majesty finds out, he will definitely punish Jieyi..."

Shuang'er just opened her mouth to persuade her, but Bai Shuang said coldly: "Do you think I have any choice? If I don't get rid of Su Ci, I will be trapped in the palace until I grow old and die. If I get rid of Su Ci, the biggest scourge, I still have a chance to turn things around!"

"But Concubine, have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this? His Majesty loves the Queen so much. If anything happens to the Queen, there will be no room for the master of this harem to turn things around!" Shuang'er wanted to persuade her again.

Unexpectedly, this strengthened Bai Shuang's confidence: "I know the consequences, but I have made up my mind and I want to give it a try!"

It was obvious that she met Zhao Shizhu first, and she had clearly loved Zhao Shizhu for so many years, so why did Su Ci occupy Zhao Shizhu's body and heart?

If she didn't love Zhao Shizhu, she could live peacefully in the harem and live out the rest of her life even without a dragon pet.

It was precisely because it was too much that she was unwilling to accept it.

Shuang'er felt disappointed when she saw Bai Shuang's determination.

The master was determined to go to a dead end, and she didn't want to accompany him to the end. But if the master had to take action against Su Ci, how could she clear herself?

Instead of going to His Majesty, she would rather go to Su Ci to warn him, because she saw clearly that His Majesty only listened to Su Ci.
