Transmigrating to Female Supremacy: Husbands, Don’t Be Too Outrageous

Trump card?

Zhao Yuqing lowered her eyes and gently stroked Ji Zhen's slightly cold hand. Suddenly, she curled her lips and sneered.

"What trump cards do I have? Zhenzhen, didn't I give you all my trump cards two years ago?"

Two years ago...

Ji Zhen was stunned for a moment. That was when she heard in the northwest that Zhao Youqing had defected to Li Yuanying. She thought he had betrayed her and broke off her friendship with him.

At that time, she was guarding the general's tomb in the northwest and did not return to Beijing. Zhao Youqing, as a hostage, could not leave Beijing at will.

She didn't reply to Zhao Youqing's letter, and it was as if she had disappeared from Zhao Youqing's world.

One day, two days, one month, two months.

Regardless of whether she replied or not, Zhao Youqing wrote to her every day, describing his daily life in Beijing.

He told her that since she left, the eclipse tree in the general's mansion had grown taller, bloomed, and then withered. He collected some of the fallen flowers that had drifted outside the mansion and made them into dried flowers, which he would show her when she returned to Beijing.

Or maybe, he went out today and saw a vendor selling sugar figurines, a girl painted like her when she was a child, so he bought it and wanted to keep it and show it to her when she came back, but because the weather was too hot, it melted and was eaten by ants.

Each letter may contain only a few words or several pages of chatter. There is no mention of lovesickness in every sentence, but the whole paper is filled with lovesickness.

Finally, when these letters were delivered to Ji Zhen after traveling thousands of miles, she threw them directly into the box without even removing the wax.

Ji Zhen thought that she still had some hatred in her heart at that time. Although she didn't know what her feelings for Zhao Youqing were, she hated his betrayal and herself for having given her true love to him for so many years.

Later, a man came from the capital, dusty and covered with scars. He called her "General" and then fainted. She lifted his veil and found that he was Zhao Youqing's close follower, Chaoge.

She was shocked and thought something had happened to Zhao Youqing. After all, as a hostage of the State of Yan, Zhao Youqing could not leave the capital at will. There were countless eyes watching him in the capital, including the attendant he brought from the State of Yan.

"Chao Ge, why are you here? Did something happen to You Qing? Is that right?"

Chaoge looked at Ji Zhen, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, circling around him. He smiled weakly, took out Zhao Youqing's token from his arms and handed it to Ji Zhen.

It is a sachet pouch filled with albizzia flowers.

Ji Zhen's eyes suddenly turned red, she clenched her purse, and her vision gradually blurred.

When she was young, she had a quarrel with Zhao Youqing and ignored him for several days. He would then climb the tall Albizia Julibrissin tree in the middle of the night, pick the flowers for her one by one, and stuff them into his purse.

Then he climbed over the wall in the middle of the night, bypassed the guards in the general's mansion, threw the purse into her room through the window, stood under her window and whispered:

"Zhenzhen, this is for you. Can we make peace?"

Ji Zhen opened the window while holding the cassia flower and saw the boy's red face under the moonlight.

"Don't lie to me, this is something couples use to apologize to each other. I'm your boss! If you want me to forgive you, you have to give me something good as a token of my filial piety!"

Ji Zhen sniffed the sweet aroma of the albizzia flowers while acting like a boss. In fact, Zhao Youqing knew that she had no idea what to do with sweet and fragrant things.

"Husband and wife, their hearts and feelings belong to the same place. Don't Zhenzhen and I have the same heart and feelings? Whether we are the eldest brother or husband and wife, it's just a title. Zhenzhen is a female hero in the world, would she still be entangled in an empty name?"

After all these words, Ji Zhen just listened to them in a veil, and since she also liked the albizzia tree, she forgave him.

After they reconciled, the Albizia Julibrissin flower became a secret code between them. It was Zhao Youqing's unique secret treasure to calm her bad temper.

Ji Zhen never expected that such a thing would be delivered from thousands of miles away by Zhao Youqing's attendants, risking their lives.

"Stupid. He took such a big risk just to give away a purse. Is his proton brain for nothing?"

A tear fell on the pink purse, which made Chaoge feel warm in her heart.

Perhaps when he came, he felt that the young master's matter was hopeless, but now, he actually saw hope in Ji Zhen's tears.

Chaoge struggled to stand up, knelt in front of Ji Zhen, and bowed:

"My son asked me to come and tell the general that he has half a poem and he wants Your Highness to write another half. I wonder if the general will agree to it?"

Ji Zhen looked at Chaoge deeply, sent everyone in the room out, took a deep breath, and said:

"You said."

"The night jasmine is in full bloom, filling the courtyard with its fragrance. It is late at night, with a light rain, and I am just waking up from my drunken stupor. Has your letter from afar reached me? I cannot bear to hear your sad tales of the past."

With a bang, Ji Zhen slammed his fist on the table, scaring Chaoge so much that he became silent.

Ji Zhen's wet eyes were still red, but a cold light flashed out. She walked in front of Chaoge, looked down at him, and said slowly:

"Besides this half poem, did he ask you to bring me something else?"

Chaoge hesitated for a moment, then bravely raised his head and looked at Ji Zhen, and asked:

"General, have you agreed?"

"take it out."

Ji Zhen's eyes were colder than ever before. The pressure from her made Chaoge speechless, so he had no choice but to give Ji Zhen the things Zhao Youqing had given him.

It is half a piece of black jade, dark in color and as smooth as ink.

Ji Zhen took the black jade in her hand and felt a mark on the corner. She knew without looking that this was a hidden military talisman used by the royal family to command the shadow guards. The ones used by Nanyue and Yan were of the same shape.

Ji Zhen was silent for a long time that day, and Chaoge kept kneeling on the ground. When his knees almost lost feeling and he was about to fall, Ji Zhen supported him and whispered in his ear:

"Tell your master that I have no poem to compose with him. But if he wants to go home, he should stay alive and wait for me to return to the capital."

At that time, Ji Zhen was just shocked and couldn't believe that Zhao Youqing actually handed his life-saving trump card to her just to show his loyalty to her.

Looking at her again now, she realized that at that time, Zhao Youqing gave her not only his life, but also a true heart beating for her.

"You Qing."

Ji Zhen held his hand, sighed, and whispered in his ear:

"Don't worry, I have already arranged it for you, just waiting for the right time."

The wind blowing from the lakeside, carrying a hint of moisture, blew their hair and tangled them together.

Zhao Youqing nodded, held Ji Zhen's hand tightly, pressed it against his chest, and whispered to Ji Zhen's forehead:

"Zhenzhen, my heart and my life are all yours. I have never had any trump cards in front of you. All I want in this life is to have you by my side and return to my homeland. Is that okay?"

Ji Zhen shuddered slightly and smiled bitterly without saying a word.

My little prince, I, Ji Zhen, am insignificant, but there is only one Qingyan County Prince in the world. She once promised you a safe return to your country, but now she will no longer be with you.
