Chapter 115: Insincere Feelings (6)
The Royal Palace's Dragon Palace.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured and let us find it."
Wang Ye was trying his best to stop Zhao Ziheng, who had just woken up, from running away. After Yinyin disappeared, Zhao Ziheng collapsed immediately. The first thing he did when he woke up was to look for Yinyin . For this reason, Wang Ye and Xiuying tried their best to dissuade him. It was not because Zhao Ziheng's body did not allow it, but because it would be too ostentatious for Zhao Ziheng to go looking for Yinyin in person.
"Rest assured? Then why was she taken away without anyone noticing? We don't even know whether she's alive or dead, how can I be assured?"
At this moment, Zhao Ziheng had completely lost his usual calmness. He was sitting on the bed and was blocked by Wang Ye. His face was extremely pale, and his voice was almost a roar, appearing to be very irritable.
"I'm very sorry, but please stay calm. Miss Wang was taken away. If they wanted to kill her, they wouldn't take such a big risk to go in and out of the palace to take her away. So there is absolutely no danger to her life. I promise."
Zhao Ziheng lost his composure and needed a while to digest Wang Ye's words. Under normal circumstances, he should have noticed these long ago. However, the matter happened suddenly and it concerned Yin Yin, so the situation was special and it was inevitable that Zhao Ziheng would lose his usual composure.
"What about the news?"
"General Zhao has sent people to look for him, but he hasn't returned yet."
If they haven't come back, then the search is not over yet. If they were able to break into the palace and take an unconscious person away without anyone noticing, then can they really be found? Zhao Ziheng was not sure. What worried him most was whether they were still in the royal city. If not, it would be even more difficult. Thinking of this, Zhao Ziheng clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and couldn't say a word.
"I'm so sorry if I..."
Xiuying interrupted with a slightly trembling voice, filled with self-blame, because she was also present when Yinyin was taken away, but unfortunately she was knocked unconscious, so she didn't know anything.
"It's none of your business."
Zhao Ziheng, who had calmed down a little, rejected Xiuying's apology without even looking at it. He could enter the palace and take people away without anyone noticing, so what could a weak woman like Xiuying do? So many people were sent to guard, and some were secretly protecting them, but they were still able to take people away. Even if Zhao Ziheng lost his composure, he would not be so confused as to distinguish right from wrong.
Wang Ye slowly loosened his grip on Zhao Ziheng's hand. He knew that Zhao Ziheng had begun to calm down, but at the same time he also knew that Zhao Ziheng was enduring, suppressing the pain in his heart and not letting it explode. He had great self-control, so much so that Wang Ye felt the same heartache as he did.
The silence was not broken until Zhao Ziheng gradually opened his fists.
"Am I useless?"
Zhao Ziheng's self-deprecating, helpless and sad voice startled Wang Ye and Xiuying at the same time, but they couldn't find the words to respond for a while.
"Oh, I can lose her even when I put her by my side. I am the king of a country, the ruler of the entire nation, but I can't even protect the person I want to protect the most."
Wang Ye fully understood the meaning of Zhao Ziheng's words. Indeed, he did not deny that being able to take away a person who was under heavy guard under the nose of the emperor showed that the other party was definitely extraordinary. It was also the biggest blow to the king Zhao Ziheng's heart.
It’s not like I haven’t seen Zhao Ziheng cry before, but the look on Zhao Ziheng’s face at this moment is even more heartbreaking.
"There's still something you can do, right?"
At this time, Wang Ye finally spoke.
"What can I do?"
"Yes, since the other party was able to take her away without anyone noticing, you can do the same."
The tone was almost very affirmative, without any hesitation.
Is it okay? Zhao Ziheng asked himself this in his heart. Looking at Wang Ye, he suddenly didn't know how to respond.
"Believe me, I won't let this happen a second time, and I will help you get her back."
There was an unquestionable firmness in his tone. Wang Ye knew that the other party was able to do it without anyone noticing because he had used special drugs. Otherwise, no matter how skilled the other party was, he would not be able to do it without making any noise. How could Wang Ye admit defeat to drugs? Treating others in their own way is an unchanging principle since ancient times.
Zhao Ziheng looked at Wang Ye in a daze. He didn't know what to say. He knew Wang Ye's strength and ability very well. Perhaps, because he believed in him too much, he didn't know what to say.
"But if you are like this, I am afraid that if she is not found yet, you will fall first."
The implication was that he hoped Zhao Ziheng could take him into consideration. Zhao Ziheng, realizing this, turned his head slightly with a sense of shame.
Wang Ye felt that Zhao Ziheng had noticed what he should be concerned about, and only then realized that Zhao Ziheng would indeed lose his composure because of Yin Yin's matter. At the same time, he overlooked that Zhao Ziheng would also become incredibly rational and calm because of Yin Yin, and even calmer than usual. The more serious the situation was, the more it would prompt him to grow in certain aspects. Not to mention Zhao Ziheng's extraordinary growth since Yin Yin's accident, the best proof of this was what he saw before. He had gone crazy because Yin Yin was kidnapped, but now he had completely calmed down, and his eyes had gradually regained their calmness, and he began to think in the right direction.
"...Please, I know what I should do. As for King Zhou and the others, I'll leave them to you."
"Yes, I will obey the decree."
Although Wang Ye didn't know what kind of psychological pressure to be so calm at the moment, he knew that every time Zhao Ziheng faced this situation, the pain in his heart would increase, the pain brought by the name of "love".
