All the concubines in the harem are time travelers

Chapter 68 What if it's broken?

But when he thought about how she was chatting and laughing with him outside the palace without any vigilance, and the smile in her eyes, he couldn't bear to really punish her.

I made her kneel down because I wanted her to admit her mistake with her own mouth, but I didn't expect that I would end up making her like this.

It would be fine if she woke up and got angry with him.

What gift can please her?

Li Ji suddenly thought of something, his deep black eyes flashed, and he took out an exquisite rouge box from his wide sleeves.

He lowered his eyes to look, stroked the patterns of the osmanthus tree on it with his thumb, and said.

"What a poor taste."

It was the bright red rouge that Bu Ji had picked up and looked at at a stall in the East Suburb Market.

Li Ji placed the rouge box in his hand next to her pillow. The moment he let go of the rouge box, his slender fingers curled up and his big hands clenched into fists.

He realized later that this woman had committed the crime of deceiving the emperor and was suffering the consequences. He even wanted to give her something so that she would not hate him when she woke up.

Li Ji frowned, uttered a curse under his breath, put down the bowl in his hand in panic, and walked out in a hurried pace.

Concubine Bu was in a coma for three days, and the emperor stayed in Yikun Palace day and night. The palace servants were saying outside that Concubine Bu had used some tricks and was willing to risk her own life to win the emperor's favor.

Naturally, these words also reached the ears of the Queen Mother.

Li Ji asked Wang Huai to move all memorials to the Yikun Palace, as if he wanted to turn it into a new Qianqing Palace.

If there was anything missing, he would just ask the palace servants to move it over, and he himself never left the house except when attending court.

However, Li Ji's face became colder day by day, and his eyes were so cold and sinister that the imperial doctors were terrified, fearing that one mistake would cost them their lives.

He looked coldly at the woman on the bed. Her face was so pale, almost transparent, like a piece of crystal clear white jade, cold and lifeless.

It was just an ordinary high fever that lasted for three days and three nights. A group of highly skilled doctors were helpless against the disease. It was simply unbelievable.

Li Ji snorted coldly, his stern face full of frost, and he stood beside the bed and said coldly.

"Listen to me carefully. Leaving the palace without permission is a serious crime punishable by the death of your entire clan. If you don't wake up, I will exterminate your entire clan."

Waves of bone-biting burning pain made Bu Ji's mind become confused. She was drowsy and walked barefoot in the darkness. Suddenly, an extremely strong light projected down from above her head.

It was a hot summer day, but she couldn't feel any warmth, as if her whole body was covered in ice and snow.

Nine races?

She was a time traveler, so there was no such thing as the real Nine Clans.

Bu Ji couldn't open his eyes no matter what when he heard the harsh words.

I just felt my whole body burning hot, my head was splitting, my throat was dry, as if I hadn't had a drop of water for days, my chest was stuffy and I wanted to vomit, and I felt extremely uncomfortable.

After a moment, that extremely cold voice forcefully rushed into her ears again, suddenly pulling her gradually sinking mind back to normal.

"Noble Bu colluded with people in the underworld to plot a rebellion. Someone, go and capture that person and bring him to me."

There was no one else in the room. Wang Huai and Li Er had both been sent out.

Li Ji just stood beside the bed and talked to himself. His words were cold and harsh, but his eyes were staring at the woman on the bed with affection.

As expected, Bu Ji reacted. His long and thick eyelashes blinked violently like wings, and his hands, which were naturally resting on his lower abdomen, suddenly stretched out his fingers and grabbed the quilt.

what did he say?

A man from the underworld! Arrest Master Jingyun... My heart contracted violently!

The pale lips moved twice and a sound came out with difficulty.

"Jingyun... Young Master Jingyun."

"Run."

Li Ji's heart tightened, and a light flashed in his dark eyes, which instantly became darker than the sky outside the window. He took a step forward and couldn't help but reach out and hold her trembling little hand.

After struggling for a while, Bu Ji finally opened his hazy eyes and saw the man in front of him with a look of panic on his face.

Was it a dream just now?

Whose name did she call? Did Li Ji hear it?

Bu Ji suddenly had an idea and gasped in pain, breathing weakly.

"Your Majesty, am I going to die soon? It's great that I can see Your Majesty before I die."

"Can I ask the Emperor to bury me in the imperial mausoleum so that I can still see the Emperor a hundred years later..."

"shut up!"

Li Ji interrupted her and said, "She dared to say such things even when she was acting. She was really not afraid of bad luck."

Bu Ji's eyes moved, and he felt weak all over and couldn't sit up. He could only tilt his head to look at him and ask in a roundabout way when the emperor came in.

"Why can't I see Li'er? When did she leave?"

"She had just left the moment you opened your eyes, and she naturally left when I came in to see you."

Bu Ji breathed a sigh of relief and finally forced a smile towards Li Ji.

Great, it seems that her talking in her sleep just now was not heard by the emperor.

Maybe he had lived in the deep palace for too long and didn't know any Young Master Jingyun at all.

Li Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, half-narrowed his black eyes as deep as a cold pond, and slightly raised the corners of his cold mouth. He looked at her with a half-smile and snorted coldly.

"You seem to care about that girl!"

Bu Ji was worried that he would become suspicious, so he spoke immediately.

"Li'er has been my personal maid since she was young, so naturally her relationship with me is better than that with other palace maids."

She spoke anxiously and choked violently. While coughing, she covered her chest with her hands and frowned. Her pale face made her look even weaker.

The next moment, she was helped up and warm tea was placed in front of her eyes.

She didn't bother to look up, she took the teacup and drank it all. When she handed the teacup back, she met a worried look. Her hand loosened, and the teacup did not fall on her, but was caught by Li Ji's hand.

“I can’t hold it steady…”

"It's just a teacup, so what if it breaks."

Li Ji spoke lightly and threw the teacup on the table.

Bu Ji was surprised. Why did Li Ji react like this? Did she travel through time again?

I clearly remember that a year ago, Cui Lihua broke a teacup in front of the emperor and was fined half a year's salary.

That was the first time Cui Lihua was punished, and that was when she was in great favor.

Is the person in front of me really Li Ji, or has it been a new time and space?

But when she saw the rouge box beside the pillow out of the corner of her eye, this guess was denied.

Has Master Jingyun been here?

This was the rouge she had seen at the East Suburbs market a few days ago. Not many people knew about this, and only Master Jingyun had the ability to enter and leave the palace freely.

It must be because he hadn't received any letter from her for several days, so Master Jingyun was worried and came to see her.

He is a man with a vicious tongue but a kind heart.

There was a hint of joy in Bu Ji's eyes. He did not dare to look at the rouge box beside his pillow for too long and hid it quietly under the pillow.

When the pillow was lifted, a thick book was found inside with the words "Jingyun Chuan" written on the cover.

She clearly remembered that she kept it in her arms and did not put it under the pillow.

Maybe it was Li'er who put it there for her. This girl has become smarter and didn't put it on the dressing table so openly.

Li Ji stood at the table with his back to her, glancing at her little movements, and only turned away after she had stuffed everything into her bag.

He only found out today that someone had written a book for him.

When he came in, the Jingyun Biography was blatantly placed on the table without even a cover.
