Chapter 140: Yan Zi Ye wants to put him in a desperate situation and then revive him?
"Song Feiyan! Don't you dare hurt Butterfly!"
Yan Ziye suddenly pulled Sheng Dieyi up from the ground and hugged her in his arms: "Yes! Today's events were all my doing!"
"It was I who used despicable means to frame the Sheng family and clear my own name, as well as Butterfly's. That's how I got you and Butterfly to take that medicine!"
"It was I who tried to oppress with power and trample to death Sheng Jinxiu and the Sheng family!"
"It was also something I never thought of from the start, marrying Sheng Jinxiu."
"But this is because I never liked Sheng Jinshu!" Yan Ziyen said indignantly: "Sheng Jinshu is just a humble merchant's daughter, with the stench of copper all over her body, without any literary talent, coarse and unbearable! I don't see half a point of goodness in her!"
"If it weren't for getting money from the Sheng family, I wouldn't be able to do anything! I couldn't have gotten close to Sheng Jinxiu!"
"I admit it, I used Sheng Jinshu, I used the Sheng family! I used every means at my disposal to make Father Emperor see me, to make the people see me! There's nothing wrong with admitting that!"
"I don't think I did anything wrong either! I was born as a prince, and I also want to be an emperor. What's the point of being born in the imperial family if you don't want to be an emperor? I've been working hard to climb up to that position, this is the path I'm supposed to take!"
"But the feelings between me and Die Yi are real! When I went to the Sheng family that year, the first person I fell in love with was Die Yi! She is gentle and kind, knowledgeable and polite, not as arrogant as Jing Xiu. I couldn't help but be attracted to her! Then we got together!"
"It was I who wronged Butterfly, making her uneasy and forcing her to change her mind! It was I who forced her to do those unpleasant things... That beautiful woman picture... was also drawn by me, I drew my own woman, this is just a bedroom pleasure..."
No one expected that Yan Ziyuan would actually admit to all these evil deeds and even admit it with such "righteous words"?!
Even Yan Ziyuan's words still sound so shameless!
But... how can there be a kind of feeling that his ambition is also quite sincere?
His feelings for Sheng Dieyi are also quite... sincere?
Is he just trying to have his cake and eat it too, using some underhanded means?
Since ancient times, emperors and generals, who can truly be upright and transparent?
Is he just a bit more despicable, a bit more selfish, a bit more ruthless, and also heartless to Sheng Jinxiu and the Sheng family?!
"Brother Yong... I'm sorry, it's all my fault... If we didn't have this child, you wouldn't... you wouldn't do something that would make people humiliate and scold you... It's me and the child who are holding you back!"
"You had promised me long ago that you would apologize to my sister properly, even if the three of us had to kneel in front of her... I was too impatient... afraid our child would be ostracized, so I urged you to marry me..."
Sheng Dieyi buried her face in Yan Ziyuan's arms and wept bitterly...
Some delicate ladies were moved by this scene.
"Alas... these two princes and Sheng Dieyi seem to be quite pitiful too..."
"Yes, if the Second Prince had liked Sheng Dieyi from the start, it would have been... not easy for him to keep it a secret all these years..."
"The second prince is also helpless, the empress's family looks prosperous, but because they are from a humble birth, after the emperor ascended to the throne, he allowed many commoner children to enter the imperial academy... actually there's no benefit... The second prince is poor and wants money, so he set his sights on the Sheng family, which can be considered a way out..."
"It's perfectly normal for a prince to have ambition; as long as he doesn't actually rebel, his ambition will make him better..."
"The second prince has indeed done many good things with the Sheng family's money in recent years..."
