Chapter 126 Peony
Zheng Nianru spent an entire afternoon deliberating before finally deciding to send Master Yin He away. This was not without the hard-fought advising from Zheng Haoyuan.
Such a capable individual, beyond Zheng Nianru’s control, could become an unforeseen risk at any moment.
Zheng Nianru absolutely underestimated her own prior thoughts, simply believing she had gained a formidable guard. In her future consciousness, having such a strong guard serve her was the utmost honor for the other party.
Zheng Nianru had grown accustomed to naturally enjoying such honors, thus she intuitively assumed that this Master Yin He would follow her commands, striking wherever she directed, just like a extremely powerful weapon.
But now, to send such a terrifyingly capable person away was a rather tricky matter, and Zheng Nianru felt fortunate she hadn’t just thrown him out—otherwise, it might have been she who was stoned to death and not that monster.
Zheng Nianru unwillingly inquired about resurrection and eternal life, only to find that Master Yin He didn’t understand a single word and looked at her as if she were the butt of a joke.
It was then that Zheng Nianru realized not only had she smashed her hand, but she had also lost her troops, suddenly losing the desire to keep him by her side, especially since Fu Gong’s words weren’t without reason. Although Master Yin He had lost his memory, there was no telling when it might return, and with unpleasant experiences looming, keeping him was definitely troublesome for Zheng Nianru.
Hence, when Zheng Haoyuan proposed sending Master Yin He away, Zheng Nianru almost instantly agreed after mulling it over in her mind.
To leave him to Noble Consort Wen, Zheng Nianru did not agree. Even though she was Fu Gong’s Mother Consort, subconsciously, Zheng Nianru was somewhat repulsed by having killed Noble Consort Wen in her previous life—this time, even if she wouldn’t kill her, she couldn’t bring herself to have a pleasant relationship.
