Yun He's POV
I decided to tell the truth rather than lie to the empress. I know she was disappointed and worried. She granted my wish, but I failed her instead.
"Speak," Empress demands.
"I agreed to what happened, but in return, he'll never doubt you again. Master shouldn't betray you and believe in other people's words without seeing the truth himself. Your Highness, I want him to help you achieve the peace that you've been aiming for," I remarked.
Her gaze softens while looking at me. I guess she was surprised that I could surrender my chastity for her.
"You don't need to use your body to help me. I'll do things on my own, and all I need from all of you is sincerity. But I can't change what happened already. Are you sure this is what you want?" Empress Wu Jinmai asks.
I look down and stare at my fingers. I saw the ring that the master gave to me.
