OFFERING CONCUBINES
EPISODE 84 SACRIFICE OF LOVE
BAI SHENG'S COTTAGE
The morning had not yet come down, the day was still in the dark grove, Xiao Yi was standing staring down the cliff, seeing how Qian Ren was like a silhouette in the distance painstakingly carried the two sealed crockery towards the cottage they were in.
Yuan was placed in a medium-sized bathtub. They waited for Qian Ren to bring the water from the duyao spring.
Once the sun rose, the water should have already come into contact with Yuan's concubine's skin.
Qian Ren had delivered two jars of water and now he was on his way to the edge of the clifftop, slightly slippery cliff. Some of the guards stared sympathetically. They wanted to help lift him up, but Qian Ren rejected him.
Xiao Yi was stunned, his heart was filled with pity, as Qian Ren had done so.
"This is all I can do for you, let me do it." Qian Ren said as Xiao Yi objected and said let others help him. But Qian Ren vehemently refused.
Xiao Yi did not want to argue anymore with Qian Ren, he just let everything go as Qian Ren wished.
She knew well, that jolly and kind-hearted Qian Ren, had never been so stubborn.
Unfortunately the time and events they pass change everyone even the character.
Not only had Qian Ren changed, he himself had already changed greatly.
Either they become more mature or become cold because of the bitterness and bitterness they experience in life.
Xiao Yi did not want to make Qian Ren misunderstand, if he was too insistent on showing pity.
He had sealed his heart and love for His Majesty, he never wanted to look back.
It was not that he was so heartbreaking with wealth and power that was before his eyes, but Qian Ren had never given him a chance to choose.
Feelings will change over time, if we are simply ignored.
Whatever the reason, the two of them had been on different paths, and he did not want to burden his heart with guilt anymore.
Qian Ren was indeed sacrificing for his love, as his one-sided presumption would be, but Xiao Yi felt it was not for his sake.
Qian Ren only did it for the sake of his own guilt.
Decisions can be wrong but trust cannot lose its place.
Xiao Yi had lost his confidence due to the decision made by Qian Ren.
The sacrifice of love like anything, is meaningless in the eyes of the person who has turned his face and moved his heart.

****TRANSPACE***WEIYAN
His Majesty lay restlessly on his comfortable bed, Xiao Yi's face playing in his eyes, even as he closed his eyes, the girl's smile was like so fixed on his head.
Just two days ago the girl left him, but like all those years.
He cursed himself, as a king he shouldn't have to be weak on Xiao Yi's wishes.
He could have hardened his heart and there was no need to allow Xiao Yi to leave.
But that stubborn girl always had a reason for whatever she wanted to do.
Even a king is deceived by it.
His Majesty hugged his thick silk blanket, seeking warmth at the end of the night, thinking Xiao Yi was truly an efficacious way to drive away his longing.
Then in a fit of annoyance he woke up to get rid of the blanket, his memory of some of his favorite scenes with Xiao Yi immediately made his body turn hot.
Maybe looking for air outside could help him a little relieved. It was almost morning, the scenery in Shenhua Park might be able to calm her unsettled feelings.
Eunuch Chen, hurrying to meet in front of the door as His Majesty opened it.
Sometimes His Majesty was confused by himself, before going to sleep he still saw the face of Eunuch Chen and when he woke up he would meet the same face. I don't know when his loyal eunuch ever rested properly.
Already several times His Majesty offered eunuch Chen to take time for himself, take a vacation and leave from his duties which every day follow and serve His Majesty.
But, eunuch Chen was like a father who was so afraid to let go of his son. He did not trust anyone in this palace to serve His Majesty directly except himself.
"One day Your Majesty will know why I always worry about Your Majesty more than anyone else." Said Eunuch Chen.
The Jian Guards and a few other personal guards had already changed shifs, now they were ready at Rongyu's doorstep.
"Where will your Majesty go in this shirt?" Kasum Chen looked at His Majesty in surprise, his dashing body was only wrapped in a sleeping robe.
"I'd like to take a short walk to Shenhua" His Majesty's air.
Eunuch Chen entered for a while and then appeared with a blue coat.
"Your Majesty wear this, the day is still not fully bright, the weather has not yet become warm." Eunuch Chen put it on a coat.
As His Majesty descended into the still desolate Shenhua park, someone had stood on the bridge of the park lake.
The dashing man in the armor, saluted His Majesty.
"Juren..."His Majesty if not in a public place will call his commander by his small name. Since they had been brought up together, then they were quite familiar with each other.
"Your Majesty..." Zhao Juren bowed.
"Is this early you're here?"
asked His Majesty, then stood next to Zhao Juren
"I'd like to meet Your Majesty." Zhao Juren.
His Majesty turned his head, scrutinizing Zhao Juren's face, like two old comrades who had just met.
Ever since becoming a Commander, Zhao Juren had been so guarded about his attitude and formality that he even seemed to be moving away from His Majesty's personal life that he no longer became close to the king.
"What's wrong?" His Majesty scrunched his forehead.
"I beg your Majesty to allow me to inspect, the robbery of royal aid sent to Youwu province, two months ago."
His Majesty now completely turned around in surprise to Zhao Juren.
"You don't have to investigate that. I've submitted the matter to Youwu's investigation and the department related to the delivery"
"Do you just trust Governor Qian and the aid expedition department?"
His Highness Yan Yue and Zhao Juren, exchanged looks. Then in a slow voice he asked,
"You're asking me, sending you to Youwu?"His Majesty asked back.
"Yes, Your Majesty..."Zhao Juren replied with confidence.
There are some things that must be done alone in Youwu, otherwise all will be late.
It might even be possible that he lost someone who was so important to him, and that would not be at stake.
Sacrificing for love, though painful but soothing to her heart. Just looking at it from afar, Zhao Juren felt better than seeing him return without a life to Weiyan palace.
