After the marriage, I married the most treacherous minister of the dynasty

Because of the nightmare she had in the afternoon and the fact that Yan Mingjue had not come back, Su Qingwan slept very uneasily that night. Her heart was beating very fast and she always felt that something was going to happen.

In the middle of the night, she heard some noise outside, and Qinshu called out softly:

"Miss."

Su Qingwan woke up immediately:

"What's the matter?"

"Uncle is back."

"He was sent back here, covered in blood..."

Before Qinshu could finish her words, Su Qingwan had already quickly put on her clothes and got out of bed.

Yan Mingjue ordered that no one should disturb Su Qingwan, and he was sent to the yard where he usually rested.

When Su Qingwan arrived, she only saw the servant holding basins of blood.

She paused, her body swayed, and she quickly held onto the door frame to steady herself.

After taking a deep breath, Su Qingwan walked in.

Yan Mingjue was lying on the couch. When he heard footsteps, he turned around and saw Su Qingwan standing there, wearing only an outer robe.

He frowned:

"Why are you dressed like this?"

Although it is late spring and early summer, it is still a little cold at night. She is not in good health and might get sick again tomorrow.

Seeing the worry in his eyes, Su Qingwan felt a pain in her heart.

He was injured so badly, but he was still worried about her health.

Before I could say anything, the doctor arrived.

After cutting open his robe, she realized how badly Yan Mingjue was injured. His entire back was beyond repair.

She covered her mouth hard to prevent herself from making any sound.

The doctor cleaned his wound and applied medicine...

Yan Mingjue didn't make a sound from beginning to end, not even a groan.

If she hadn't seen the cold sweat on his forehead, she would have thought he wasn't in any pain at all.

Heartache, bitterness...all kinds of emotions intertwined together.

At some point, tears began to fall from Su Qingwan's eyes, but she was unaware of it.

The doctor treated the wound, gave some instructions and then left.

Qinshu and Jingzhe looked at each other and followed them downstairs, leaving only two people in the room.

Su Qingwan then slowly walked to Yan Mingjue's bed, squatted down carefully, and looked at the wound that had been treated with medicine. She wanted to touch it, but was afraid of hurting him.

"Does it hurt?"

Su Qingwan's voice was choked with sobs, and when Yan Mingjue opened his eyes he saw tears on her cheeks.

His heart softened and he raised his hand to gently wipe it off for her.

"Don't cry! It doesn't hurt!"

When Su Qingwan heard this, tears fell even faster.

How could it not hurt.

After a long while, she finally recovered:

"How did it hurt?"

She saw that the wound was caused by caning, and she could not think of anyone else who would dare to beat him with the stick except the current emperor.

But, it shouldn't be like this.

Yan Mingjue has been doing a good job recently and has won the emperor's appreciation.

"It's okay. I did the wrong thing and the emperor punished me."

Yan Mingjue said this lightly, without mentioning the thrilling experience in the palace today.

He has always been a smart man, but today he was confused for the first time.

According to his temperament, it's just about having one more woman around him, and she's a useful person, which will bring him one step closer to achieving his goal.

However, when Emperor Xuanwu asked him questions, his mind was filled with only Su Qingwan.

He could indeed promise.

Su Qingwan is not an ordinary woman either. She has Su Yucheng behind her. He believes that as long as he proposes to demote Su Qingwan to a concubine, the emperor will agree.

That's the best way.

However, thinking of Su Qingwan's disappointed look, he didn't want to do that.

In a fit of rage, he did the most impulsive thing in his life: disobeying an imperial order.

I said I would protect her, so of course I wouldn't let her suffer any injustice.

No one can let her suffer any injustice!

Even the emperor can’t do it!
