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

"what?"

Ji Zhen closed the medicine box with a bang and took a step back.

The wind outside the window howled, breaking open the half-closed window. The humid air poured in, extinguishing the tiny lamps.

The whole room suddenly became dark. In the darkness, Yunzi chuckled, grabbed Ji Zhen's hand holding the medicine box, and asked:

"Your Highness is afraid?"

In the darkness, Yun Zi in front of Ji Zhen turned into a blurry black shadow. She let Yun Zi pull her, holding the medicine box tightly, and said coldly:

"I am in my own palace, what is there to be afraid of? Can I have someone light the candles again?"

There was no trace of panic in Ji Zhen's words. Yun Zi held Ji Zhen's hand and trembled slightly.

This was the first time that Ji Zhen claimed to be the king in front of him, and he was really intimidating.

Yunzi groped for her sleeve in the dark, looking for the only source of heat in the room, and threw himself into Ji Zhen's arms.

"Indeed, Your Highness, there is no need to be afraid. It is I who am afraid."

Feeling that the body temperature of the person in his arms was much lower than that of an ordinary person, Ji Zhen felt strange and held his hand, which was even colder. Ji Zhen could not help but hold his hand in his palm and use his internal energy to warm it up.

"Why is it so cold? Yunzi, are you sick?"

"No, I'm not sick."

Yunzi was attracted by the warmth of Ji Zhen's body. He leaned closer to Ji Zhen and said with a smile:

"It's poison. It's the same poison that Your Highness holds in his hand, called 'Yearly Worry'. It's fed to the death warriors, once every three months. Today is the last day. If you don't continue to take it, the poison will take effect."

"Li Yuanying, I really underestimated her." Ji Zhen's brows were knotted.

She knew about the infamous "Yearly Worry", a poison introduced from southern Xinjiang that did not cause any substantial harm to the body of the user, but was extremely addictive. Once taken, it was difficult to quit.

If you can't continue to take it during the attack period, the whole person will fall into extreme madness, suffer severe mental damage, and live a life worse than death. Few people can resist the attack period of "Yearly Worry", which is the best way to control the dead soldiers in the whole of South Vietnam.

Ji Zhen had seen "Years of Worry" once in the General's Mansion, just like the one in the box in her hand. The white pill, smooth and harmless, lay quietly in the red velvet box, waiting for the person who obtained it to exchange his life.

Yunzi said that today was the day he would stop taking the medicine. If he did not continue taking it, he would experience withdrawal symptoms. The first symptom of withdrawal symptoms was photophobia.

Can Yunzi’s words be trusted?

Ji Zhen flipped her hand and took out a huge night-shining pearl. Ever since she was trapped by Li Muyun in the palace, she developed the habit of carrying a night-shining pearl with her. Unexpectedly, it came in handy today.

Ji Zhen held the night pearl in front of Yunzi's eyes and pushed him outward so that he faced the night pearl.

Yunzi only took one look at the Night Pearl, and his pupils suddenly shrank, and then quickly expanded. The next moment he couldn't help but put his hands to cover his face, whimpered in pain, and squatted on the ground.

He was trembling all over, like a small boat floating on a stormy sea, and the pain did not seem fake.

Ji Zhen sighed heavily and placed the night pearl in his hand to the other side of the room. Only a faint light came over, illuminating the outline of the person in front of Ji Zhen.

"Yunzi, can you stand up?"

Ji Zhen asked softly in Yunzi's ear while hugging him tightly to provide him with warmth and support.

Low body temperature is the second manifestation of “year after year worry”.

Yunzi huddled in Ji Zhen's arms, her teeth chattering from the cold, but she insisted on not making a sound. She just held Ji Zhen's wrist tightly, causing her to almost cry out in pain.

"Sui Sui You" always has a quick onset. From the time Ji Zhen took out the medicine box to show Yunzi to the time it attacked, less than an hour had passed. Yunzi was already covered in cold sweats, and his whole body looked as if he had been fished out of the water.

Ji Zhen knew that he was sad, so she couldn't let him squat on the ground and lean on her. After saying "sorry" to Yunzi, she picked him up with a force and put him on the bed in the inner room.

The windows of the inner room had hardly been opened in the past few days. The room was drier than the outer room, and there were two quilts on the bed.

Ji Zhen placed Yunzi steadily on the bed, and when she pulled over the quilt, she discovered that they were actually two thick quilts.

It was already late spring in the capital. The thick quilt in Ji Zhen's room had long been put away and replaced with a thin quilt, but Yunzi had a thick quilt here.

Ji Zhen touched it with her hand. It was a new quilt cover with newly fluffed cotton. It looked like it was newly bought.

Why did he prepare two thick quilts in such a hot day? Did he decide not to worry about the year?

Ji Zhen was full of doubts, but she didn't stop. She shook open the quilt and wrapped Yunzi in two thick layers, wrapping her tightly.

"Your Highness..."

Yunzi called Ji Zhen softly, his voice erratic and trembling. He stretched out his hand from under the quilt and groped in the direction of Ji Zhen in the dim light.

"I am here."

Ji Zhen sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Yunzi's bluish white hands, sighed, held his hands, held them in her arms and slowly covered them.

"Your Highness...I...don't want to eat."

Yunzi trembled for a long time and took great effort to finish the five words. It was incoherent, but Ji Zhen understood.

"Do you know where Xian Yao put the antidote?"

Yunzi shook his head weakly and struggled for a while, as if he wanted to say something, but his lips trembled and he could no longer utter a word. He collapsed on Ji Zhen.

At this time, there was a knock on the outer door, and Wen Daoxing's voice came in slowly.

"Your Highness, the spy in Princess Xian Yao's mansion seems to be poisoned and keeps asking for some pills."

The two of them were fed the medicine at the same time.

Ji Zhen frowned and shouted outside:

"Mr. Daoxing, please come in and talk."

"Yes."

Wen Daoxing pushed the door open, only to find that the entire room was plunged into darkness. Only the light from a huge night pearl in the corner brought a glimmer of light to the dark room.

"Don't light the candles." Ji Zhen ordered in the inner room.

"Yes."

Wen Daoxing carefully made way for the furniture and walked into the inner room. He opened the bed curtains and saw Ji Zhen holding Yun Zi, who was wrapped in a thick quilt, sitting on the bed. Ji Zhen held Yun Zi's hand and placed it against his chest to keep it warm.

"Your Highness... This is..."

Such a scene made Wen Daoxing's brows knotted, and Ji Zhen's expression was not much better than his.

She stuffed Yunzi's hand back into the quilt, tucked the quilt in, then stood up and handed the medicine box to Wen Daoxing, saying:

"Is this what he wants?"
