Chapter 256: Love Breaks
In fact, at this time, Shen Mingjue's tinnitus had improved a lot. He heard what Gu Changfeng said, but he didn't believe it.
Since the jade pendant was broken, he had no reason to stay here.
Gu Changfeng stared blankly at the broken jade pendant on the ground. Suddenly, he knelt on the ground like crazy and tried to piece the jade pendant together. However, his hands were so clumsy that he cut his index finger. The bright red blood stained the broken jade, but he still couldn't piece the pendant together.
He muttered, "Ming Jue, don't leave. Wait for me to put it together. I will put it together soon..."
As he said this, Shen Mingjue had already walked away, dragging his broken self out of the palace.
Zhao Si came in a hurry, not caring about the distraught Shen Mingjue, and went to see his prince first, "Prince! What are you doing!"
He immediately asked someone to call the imperial physician, but Gu Changfeng seemed to be stupid, holding the jade pendant tightly, and Zhao Si was unable to pry his hands open.
In the end, the imperial physician found a way and knocked the man unconscious.
Zhao Si looked at the broken jade, sighed, and sent it to someone to repair it.
With red eyes, Shen Mingjue walked back to the general's mansion step by step.
Originally, his brothers Shen Mingyuan and Lou Xu did not stop the man. They were anxious. Their instinct told him that this matter might not have a good result. Before his brother's tongue was cut off, he might still be a good match for the prince. Now that he is disabled, it is understandable that the prince does not want to marry him. However, his brother...
Shen Mingyuan recalled the beginning when his brother and the prince were together on the grassland. They were clearly in a state of muddling through and enjoying themselves while they could. But five years had passed, and even the most unwilling people would start to care. Now that they were back in the capital, they were being left behind so quickly. Would they be unable to accept it?
Lou Xu said: "Don't worry too much. We have to wait for him to ask in person for details."
Shen Mingyuan nodded. His father had passed away and Shen Mingjue was his only relative now. No matter how much he disliked him, he should take good care of him and shoulder the responsibility of being his brother.
While the two were talking, they saw a vague figure not far away. It was Shen Mingjue who had returned from Prince Yong's Mansion.
His face had never looked so bad, as if he had died once and his soul had been torn apart. Now, what appeared before them was only half a soul, dragging his unconscious body and walking stiffly step by step.
"How are you?" Shen Mingyuan rarely cared about him, but Shen Mingjue couldn't listen to him at all.
Shen Mingjue shook his head, ignored the two men, and went straight back to the house.
Only then did Shen Mingyuan react and patted his head, "I'm really confused. When I asked him this, he couldn't tell me."
Lou Xu put his arm around his shoulders and asked the servants to close the door of the palace to avoid being seen and laughed at by outsiders.
Only a few of them knew what happened between Shen Mingjue and the prince on the grassland. Most people in the capital were unaware of it. Even if everyone in the city saw the Shen family's mute general walking back from Prince Yong's mansion like a lost soul, they would not think that the two of them had a good relationship.
This is the best, Lou Xu thought. Maybe after a while, everyone will forget about this matter and just treat what happened on the grassland as a dream.
"He will figure it out. It's easier to withdraw now than to wait until the prince's wedding night. He will get over it sooner or later."
Shen Mingyuan stamped his feet in annoyance. If his brother hadn't become mute, they wouldn't be so sad. He had a lot of achievements but couldn't hold an official position. "A Xu, why don't we go to the south in a few days and take Shen Mingjue with us."
It was so sad here that even he couldn't bear to watch it.
Lou Xu naturally understood what he meant and gently stroked Shen Mingyuan's hair, "Okay."
